Editorial Notes This is a book report of Summer Camp Program 2018. It was written to highlight the process of thinking and learning of participants during the program, both in the classroom and in the field. The main purpose of this book is to elaborate on the approaches to the issue of water in rural area from different perspectives to gain a comprehensive understanding of Cisoka and Rancaekek contexts. It is a synthesis of knowledge and reflections from people involved in the program.

The book is generally written in three main parts. The first part is an introduction of Summer Camp Program itself, what vision it brings, and critical reasons in considering water as the topic of the program, and how this issue would be approached in two case studies. These are written by the Dean of SAPPD and the head of Architecture Program.

The second part of the book talks the first case study in Cisoka with ‘Ngalokat Cai, Ngajaga Lembur’ as the topic. In this part, we have an overview of the program and how it is done both in class and in the field.

The title ‘What we do’ tells about in-class programs including lecturers, desk-study and studio workshops, while ‘Social and Water Observation Team’ as well as ‘Construction Team’ deal with the process of problem finding, collecting data and analysing the information in order to identify key issues and perhaps be able to propose a preliminary solution to the issue. These findings hopefully iv

would be useful for further exploration in the future. At the end of this part is ‘What We Bring Home’ and ‘Testimonial’ that attempt to capture participants’ reflection of the program they have been experienced and what really leaves a mark on their memories.

The third part of the book contains the second case study in Rancaekek with ‘Ngalokat Cai, Ngamumule Bumi’ as the topic. As introductory part, we have a regional context of Rancaekek in ‘Where we start’ and methodology in ‘What we do’. Then, we follow the process of learning in dayto-day basis, as a process to understand the issue and designing intervention in an integral manner. At the end of this part, lesson learned is drawn, with conclusions and recommendations.

The book ends with A Cup of Tea from the steering committee, that is a critical reflection of the program.

Message from the Dean In early August 2018 the 7th event of Summer Camp has been successfully completed. Since the first Summer Camp Sawahlunto, West Sumatera in 2012 School of Architecture, Planning and Policy Development (SAPPD) ITB, has been working seriously to implement the program constantly and annually. In responding to the current problems and challenges, a collaboration between SAPPD ITB and Pilar Tunas Nusa Lestari Foundation (TNF), a Bandung-based NGO with its special concern and interest in Environmental Planning and Education, has purposively been established, through the friendly support of Ikatan Alumni Arsitektur ITB. The objective of the program is to create a platform for students to learn, experience and explore conceptual solutions. For this purpose, two areas have been painstakingly selected for the recent Summer Camp, i.e.

Cisoka Village in Sumedang, which is in fact a continuation of the previously initiated activity in 2017, and Rancaekek, a peri-urban area in Bandung Urban Region. The latter has been proposed by the TNF, due to its rapid urban growth and significant impact of urbanization on the landscape of the region.

Based upon early studies, water management, including fresh water and waste water management, have been chosen as the main issue. Thus, lack of proper infrastructure in Cisoka Village is also severe, while in Rancaekek some major vi

environmental problems were recognized and considered as the basis for the problem formulation of the two locations. Therefore, the issue of water is considered socially, culturally, economically and environmentally of significance. It is our concern to understand the behavior of water and sustainability of the earth or “Ngalokat Cai�, which underlines the topic of the program.

Thus, that Sundanese term has been considered as an apt title of the Summer Camp to contextualize and engage with the environmental problem, especially water management. In addition to that, the water issue is also in-line with the national program of the Citarum River Region Management in West Java.

In this Summer Camp, consequently we have two groups of participants that passionately engage with the programs in both locations.

Students of Architecture program, and Urban and of Regional Planning program (SAPPD), also from other faculties in ITB, including FTSL (Faculty of Civil and Environmental Engineering) and SITH (School of Life Sciences and Technology) and students from Urban and Regional Planning, UiTM, Malaysia, had been participated in the program. Besides, we were honored to have input and sharing from several invited experts and speakers on the topic, such as Environmental Engineering, Sanitary Engineering, Geology and Urban Health.

Finally, we would like to extend our sincere

gratitude to all stakeholders, which support us persistently in the organization of Summer Camp 2018. In all, it was really a great honor to collaborate with all students, tutors, colleagues and experts on this special annual event. It has been always our commitment to put our students and colleague at the

frontier of interdisciplinary knowledge, especially with new tasks and challenges in our core business, i.e. planning, design and policy development of built environment. We strongly believe that our small engagements would contribute significantly to the understanding of the eminent topic of water, especially for our next generation.

Summer Camp 2018: Ngalokat Cai

Summer Camp 2018 is a continuing program of previous year in the context of location where this year we choose Cisoka village at Sumedang Selatan region as one of the location of the program. The year 2018 also marked as the beginning of cooperation between SAPPD and Yayasan Tunas Nusa, endorsed by Ikatan Alumni Arsitektur ITB to held community development programs with students and lecturers participation.

As part of the cooperation program, the Summer Camp 2018 held in two locations with dictinct characteristics: the first location is in remote village, Cisoka village, and the second location is in the fringe of Bandung city, Rancaekek region. Our initial survey found that on both locations, water become major issues particulary the management of fresh water and waste water. Cisoka region has natural sources of fresh water but lack of infrastructure to manage for the benefits of its inhabitants. While in Rancaekek region, the major issue is water pollutions since the location is surrounded by factories and related industrial complexes.

This issue brings our theme of Summer Camp 2018: “Ngalokat Cai”, a Sundanese term that has a meaning: “to understand water behavior”. We are fortunate to invite prominent speakers and facilitators from other field of disciplines such as from Environmental Enginnering, Sanitary Engineering, Geology and Urban Health.

In this Summer Camp, we have two groups viii

of participants that fully engage to the program in both locations. In addition of SAPPD students, we had participants from other faculties in ITB: FTSL (Faculty of Civil and Environmental Engineering) and and SITH (School of Biological Science and Technology) also from Urban and Regional Planning, UiTM. The rundown of the program was planned and designed so that all participants had all lectures series from our invited speakers while further workshops were conducted separately based on the issues of each location.

Through this program I ensure that all participants had meaningful experiences, working together with communities and colleagues from other faculties as well as contributing ideas and basic solution to the real world problems. On behalf of Architcture Program of ITB, I sincerely would like to thank to all our partners: Yayasan Tunas Nusa, Ikatan Alumni Arsitektur ITB, Dr. Dwina Rosmini and colleagues from FTSL, our colleagues from SITH, our invited speakers for the valuabe contribution and participation.

Great appreciationis also dedicated to the organizing committee for planning and arranging this program.

understanding water behavior, preserving kampung.

Summer Camp SAPPK 2018

Part 1

Cisoka

“... to experience how architectural design can contribute to the development of sustainable designs in the headwater area.”

Ngalokat Cai, Ngajaga Lembur

Cisoka is a small village part of Sumedang district. The village is located 60 km from the eastern part of Bandung (6o55.41 S and 107o58.22 E) and is only 16 km from the district capital. However, Cisoka is still a remote village, in terms of accessibility to infrastructure services. The village is far from the main road with no electricity, surrounded by tea plantations, with an altitude of 1,118 meters above sea level. Therefore, last year the village was chosen as the Summer Camp venue with the theme “Off-grid Sustainable Rural Development”.

In Summer Camp in 2018, we look further on the potentials of Cisoka Village in the regional setting. Cisoka is geographically located in the stretch of Kareumbi Mountain which has a strategic role as a water catchment area of Citarum River and Cimanuk River.

Both rivers have important roles in West Java. Water as a source of life is the theme of this 2018 Summer Camp, namely “Ngalokat Cai, Ngajaga Lembur” which means understanding water behavior. By taking this theme we would like to explore the case study in designing and building on headwaters area.

2

This program offers students the opportunity to experience how architectural design can contribute to the development of sustainable designs in the headwater area.

An integrative approach combines ideas in rural areas and sustainability strategies with the use of local materials, accompanied by appropriate technology implementation. This strategy will be explored through a review of environmental problems arising from the existing conditions of Cisoka Village.

What we do Summer Camp provides participants with experience to do and learn how integrating planning and design could contribute to the development of sustainable rural design.

Issue that will be brought in Summer Camp 2018 is water conservation in the context of Cisoka Village. The issue covers various problems particularly in regards to water supply and sanitation, and its location in water conservation area.

This program is designed with combination of both desk and field studies. In this sense, before going to Cisoka Village for field workshop, participants would be attending set of lectures and studio workshops.

Lectures and studio workshop were divided into 4 days, and it took place in Architecture campus in Bandung.

Lectures were given to provide the multidiscipline participants an understanding about Cisoka, particularly the specific topic of the Summer Camp 2018, ‘Ngalokat Cai: understanding water behavior’. While in the studio, students could explore the issue within the given context, as well as propose idea and solution based on these lectures.

4

The lecture topics were varied, including: 1. Cisoka Background It was given by two stakeholders who are BAPPEDA and Mitra Desa. BAPPEDA explained the background, history, and position of Cisoka within Sumedang regency.

While Mitra Desa, as a community who focuses on the development of rural community, explained the insights and progress they have made altogether with the local people in Cisoka.

2. Rural Community-based Economy.

This lecture was given by City Planning lecturer, Fikri Zulfahmi, PhD. He explained his research regarding rural development especially how to engage with community to elevate the rural community-based economy.

3. Water Supply and Waste Management This was given by Environmental engineering lecturer, Dr. Mariana Marselina S., ST., MT. It provided a brief explanation on water supply management as well as waste management in cities and rural contexts.

4. Waterscape Design in Rural Area This topic was given to give participants knowledge about practical approaches toward landscape design in rural area,

5

with specific issue of water. This was given by Landscape Architecture lecturer, Dr. Firmansyah with emphasis on specific aspects which are landscape design impacts to water supply and best practices within the topic.

5. Bamboo Construction At the last day, lecture about construction was given to give the participant knowledge about alternative approach to construct a structure in remote area.

Bamboo construction was chosen as example since it was available in Cisoka village. This topic was presented by Dr.Ing Andry Widyowijatnoko, a lecture in Architecture ITB.

into 4 groups, each consisted of at least one of every discipline attending the workshop; Architecture, City Planning, and Environmental Engineering.

Each day participants were asked to explore different discussion topics, which are 1. problem and SWOT analysis about Cisoka, 2. water supply and waste management design, and 3. infrastructure design.

These lectures were held parallel along with studio workshops. Thus, participants were able to comprehensively understand the topic and the context. In addition, participants were also able to ask for further explanation and solution about specific case they had discussed during the studio workshop.

During the lectures, some participants were able to induct deeper question about certain topic, such as; how to conduct a survey with native people, how to come up with new local economy, which tree best to plant for waste management, and how to preserve the bamboo locally as well as affordably.

The first topic was chosen to initiate open ended discussion within participants; what is the main problem and opportunity in Cisoka. The second and third topics were chosen to narrow the discussion and create practical solution regarding water and infrastructure. The former was aimed to give recommendation about the village water and waste management. The latter was about the small scale infrastructure that could be implemented by the individuals in Cisoka Village. Even though there were three topics in the studio, participants could discuss all of them comprehensively regarless days they were given. During the workshops, it is found that new insights emerged among the participants as the discussion and lectures went.

Studio Workshop Studio workshop was designed to give the students experience of multi-discipline discussions. The participants were divided

Each workshop group was accommodated with one computer with internet access and supporting data. Some of the data given were CAD map of Cisoka, drone map image with

6

information of contour and infrastructure of Cisoka, municipal statistical data, rules and regulation regarding water catchment area, and previous research and Summer Camp results in Cisoka. Other than that, facilitator was always available during the discussion to give narrative explanation about Cisoka village if needed.

In the last day of studio workshop, each group presented their studio workshop results to four reviewers: 1) Ir. Ismet Harun Belgawan, Ph.D with the expertise on methodological thinking in field studies; 2) Dr.-Eng. M. Donny Kurniawan as an expert on energy conservation and context of Cisoka as well; 3) Permana ST., MT. as a representative of ‘Mitra Desa’ who has built close relation with people of Cisoka; 4) and Dr.Ing. Andry Wiyowijatnoko, ST, MT, focusing on bamboo constructions.

Since the academic backgrounds of each team was unique, they produced different problem analysis and solutions as well.

While one team did an analysis with predetermined problem to search for a solution, another tried to look further by looking for the basic problem and issue within the context first. Another team even spent more time to explore the data from various sources. The result presented by each team in this stage was still tentative, since they still had not yet do the site observation. Thus, included in the result was their plan for site observation in Cisoka. Rather than the result, it was the 7

process of discussion which was more interesting.

Having participated in series of lecturers and studio workshops, participants were expected to have a sufficient prelimenary understanding related to the topic to bring to the field, Cisoka Village. Based on studio workshops, Cisoka Village faces issues on water conservation. Having in mind that there is an existing village with agricultural livelihood, we liked to explore how the everyday life of the villagers relates with water. Moreover, we also inquired the existing networks of water supply and demand in Cisoka Village and its surrounding landscape.

In parallel, we also experimented with the previous Summer Camp intervention, Tea House, by integrating water pond (balong). In doing so, we collaborated with local builders to renovate the Tea House. Each team was then devided based on members expertise and interest into three groups focusing on ‘Water Observation’, ‘Social Mapping’, and ‘Bamboo Construction’.

8

They spent a week in Cisoka and lived together with the Cisoka people. At first, each group gathered to map data, issue and solution they have resulted from their previous groups. In this sense, they might find which part they would like to explore further and how hey would find it in the field.

Each group would work together during the field workshop, working specifically on either one of the given topics, to finally present the findings to the Cisoka people at the end of the program.

Water Observation Team Activity and purposes On the previous planning workshop (1st-4th day) we found that data were not complete or unclear particularly on ‘a good water supply and sanitation planning’ and ‘water usage issue at dry season’. On that reason, at Cisoka, we decided to update and complete secondary data that was obtained on the workshop. Generally, the data focused on clean water distribution map, clean water supply flow, and general wastewater and drainage map.

Clean water distribution map is necessary for redesigning and troubleshooting current water supply system. Clean water supply flow is important for us to know whether current clean water supply is sufficient for the residents doing their activities, also for a base data for designing water reservoir and distribution system if any new activity or purpose is planned to be in Cisoka Village.

Furthermore, general wastewater and drainage map are also crucial for designing

a sanitized and effective water utilization. In general, residents daily activities may need different quality and quantity for each of different activities. For example greywater with certain qualification may be retained to be used for watering plants.

Even broadening our scope on Cisoka residential area, we observe water source from where it is taken for Cisoka Village utility, also downstream of water which is lower than Cisoka Village. Both are related to managing sustainable energy resources (pico-hydro), it is important towards developing Cisoka Village as an independent and sustainable village on conservation area.

11

“This is interesting as the local has their own wisdom to manage this water.”

How to execute them On first day of observation in Cisoka, we started by splitting to 3 pairs of surveyors.

We worked on three focuses which each pair would focus on: measuring water flow at terminals and the terminal’s dimension, observing clean water supply distribution system, and observing water ponds particularly its location and usage.

The first pair was responsible to do water flow test and mapping clean water distribution, those would answer the need of clean water distribution system. As we had limited tools, we got ideas on how to measure water flow on terminals by using plastic bag and bucket, given and borrowed by locals, also ruler and stopwatch (by cell phone) that we brought.

Plastic bag was directed by first person under the inlet pipe above reservoir (actually ‘terminal’ would be more appropriate than ‘reservoir’ in the reality) so it be filled with the water along with starting stopwatch by second person. As plastic bag was going to be ¾ full (save volume not to waste water inside plastic when moving around) first person gave command just before and when he pulled away the plastic to stop filling the water so that second person would stop the timer precisely. Water then were transferred to a bucket to measure its volume.

Water flow is its volume per its filling period.

Test was done three times for each terminal B & C, in different time, that is on 09:00, 12:00, and 15:00 to obtain average data in a day 12

which were used as basis to estimate water flow in a year. Also every test on each time was done thrice to obtain precise data.

For clean water distribution system, we observed the water networks by tracing each terminal from which was channeled by hoses to houses, each hose for one house.

In doing this we used secondary data, maps that we obtained from committee, to ensure and update the existing data. We found that using hose as water distributor was easily changeable. One hose may be moved between two neighbor or between neighboring facilities, though this is not so often. Generally, water from each hose would be used and overflowed to a pond (balong).

This is interesting as the local has their own wisdom to manage this water. So we also conducted some research of the usage of the ponds, which may be different from one another.

During the observation of water system in Cisoka Village, however, we found another problem that we did not plan to investigate: waste management problems. As local people also consume industrial made things, which contain single use items like food and beverages packaging, despite recycling worker sometimes come to pick things that can be bought to be recycled, there were much more things that cannot be recycled, and locals ended them up by burning them.

Burning plastics in open air may increase risk of chronical diseases to locals, also

water and land pollution will certainly effect water quality and food that produced nearby burning area.

Next, we explored how locals manage energy that has been harvested from Cisoka’s ecosystem as Cisoka does not receive electricity service from the national electricity company (PLN). There were solar cells that were granted several years ago from another event, also pico-hydro technology that was made by locals. Each unit of pico-hydro owned by one household, so that every household is responsible to each of their own pico-hydro.

Exploring outside residental area of Cisoka village, we also observed water sources that are transmitted to Cisoka village, not to forget marking some important spots by GPS. Tracking around, discovering potential energy source around Cisoka, including water and wind. We also explored a special site of Cisoka, assuring us that Cisoka as a place to be conserved as it holds varieties of endemic flora and fauna.

Output As the result of direct observation, we found that the water usage issue at dry season actually not that significant. We found by the test, water flow on Terminal B was 0.478 L/s and on Terminal C was 0.637 L/s, summed: 1.115 L/s, that is equal to 96,336 L/ day. If we count Cisoka Village’s population administratively, current water supply surplus up to 13 times to standard water needs (80 L/ person/day). Integrated map of water system was also obtained, useful for further planning & design. Current energy harvesting by pico-hydro is done by each house separately, making series of installation plan along the downstream below Cisoka Village. Locals said, generally for generator with 1 magnet could produce up to 200-300 W, with 2 magnets could produce up to 300-400 W. Other issue found related to healthy life and water supply, that is poor solid waste management, residence in Cisoka Village burn their solid waste, this may risk their

health chronically trough inhalation also water & land pollution that effect what they eat and drink.

Our recommendations regarding water system are: • For utilizing both adjoined public toilet near Terminal C, water supply system towards it should be repaired.

• If Tea House was planned to be developed and used further, water demand for Tea House can be taken from Terminal C. • All black water should be channeled securely to septic tank or other underground wastewater treatment unit.

• Good solid waste management is in need to prevent water & land pollution because of solid waste open air burning, also to maintain Cisoka’s healthy environment for healthy Cisoka Village.

Social Observation Team Activities and purposes Theme of Summer Camp for this year is “Ngalokat Cai, Ngajaga Lembur”, Understanding Water Behavior. We were told that Cisoka has strong potencies to be developed as an ecotourism area. Regarding this issue, we believe that mapping villagers’ profiles, their daily activities and social interactions should be taken into account.

Facilities and infrastructure in Cisoka Village including water usage, sanitation, and electricity also need to observe in relation to socio-cultural condition of the local people.

To obtain data, we were divided into two groups. We collected data by interviewing the villagers, followed by mapping residents’

activities and natural sources through geotracking. During the interview, one group had a conversation with the locals, while others wrote the important information and also took some photos as documentation.

The data were analysed gradually as we kept interviewing more local people to complete the information needed in relation to social mapping in Cisoka. First, we drew maps and brainstormed key ideas. Then we complemented maps with narration contained issue and recommendation for Cisoka. The results were then presented to the committee, participants and residents of Cisoka Village.

23

“Bu ieu aya TV, kunaon teu dihurungkeun?”

How to execute them The team was divided into two based on physical boundaries of the area, the upper and lower parts. It was defined by the road, and the ability of the members to spoke Sundaness as most of Cisoka people are not used to speak in Bahasa Indonesia. By speaking Sundanese, the conversation would be more relaxed and interactive. To do the interviews, we came to the villagers’ home.

They were very welcome.

Questions for interviews ranged from background, to family profile, hometown, when they came to Cisoka, how they live in there, and their daily activies. Technically, during the interview, person who interviewed the villager would translate the talk into Bahasa Indonesia so that others could follow the discussion, and give some insights related to the information they needed.

Beside, we also used another method to gather information, which was by following the local people to their work, for instance, to tea plantation.

We attempted to conduct interview in casual ways, for instance, when we visited Bu Yani’s house, we saw there were a TV on the living room, yet it was turned off. That became our starting pint to start the collecting data process:

“Bu ieu aya TV, kunaon teu dihurungkeun ?”

(Why don’t you turn on your tv, Ma’am? I see you have one there).

24

“Upami nuju halodo sapertos ayeuna mah teu tiasa dihurungkeun neng. Cai di walungana saat janten teu cekap listrikna.”

(Because it is drought season dear, the water flow isn’t strong enough to produce electricity.)

It turned out that even with casual conversations we were able to obtain the data. In this case, it was related to the water condition during the dry season which influenced electrical provision in the household.

During the live-in, at the day we collected data while at night we gathered in the mosque to brainstorm and share the information we got from each group of social mapping team. It turned out that the scope was quite different so we discussed to determine the category of questions that would be asked to villagers in the following days. We categorised the data into socio-cultural, economic, water supply and sanitation and infrastructure aspects.

After the first data collection, we presented our findings to the facilitators: Ismet Bengawan Harun, and Kang Uceu. They gave some insights related to (1) how to process and compile data so that it is easy to understand, and (2) there are a lot of conditions in Cisoka Village that we still did not know yet and impartial data collection and analysis. Our lack of information in the studio made us using too much assumption

about what to make and what to inspect in Cisoka.

In the last day, our findings were grouped into 6 topics; sanitation, social development, water supply and utilization, economy, infrastructure, and natural resources. We were looking for data linkages to topics in general that have been selected. Then, we combined the data linkage with the mind map which then we could determine the issues and propose recommendations for Cisoka Village. Other than that, we made a family tree in Cisoka Village to support mind maps.

25

Output The findings and recommendation were presented to Summer Camp committee and villagers of Cisoka Village. Based on observations, there were 35 houses with toilets, 11 houses without toilets, 6 open toilet on pond, public toilets and septic tanks that risked collapsing. Public toilets were rarely used because they preferred to use toilet in house. There was no lighting in public toilets so at night the toilets were very dark. The latrines used the pond to accommodate all the waste from the bathroom.

Living with limited electricity and technology that were not as sophisticated as in urban areas, increased interaction between citizens.

We often saw residents gathered and chatted 26

casually without any gadget in hand. We found it very warm and comforting. We also revealed that mutual cooperation was still applied in any work that involved a lot of residents, for example when there is a family who wants to build a house, all residents will help.

Because it was surrounded by tea plantation, almost all residents worked as tea pickers.

Some have their own lands, while other work to manage other people’s land. This affected the pattern of daily activities of villagers. They tended to sleep early and woke up early to pick tea. So if we visited a resident’s house in the morning it will tend to be quiet. After 12 noon they returned to their homes. For residents who had enough land around their

27

“... in the distribution of water use, it was divided according to the household evenly used conventional hoses connected to homes.� house, they used it to plant various crops such as coffee plants. Initially, planting coffee was only done by few residents. Over time, other residents followed it. This showed that the residents of Cisoka Village were adaptive and quick to learn.

The first uniqueness we highlight was their close kinship. This was a characteristic of Sundanese people that they lived close to their family. In fact, the distribution of water use was divided evenly according to the household by using conventional hoses connected to houses.

We also noted how they utilized the local energy resources to meet daily needs such as installing solar panels and installing waterwheels to generate electricity. Even though the discharge was small during the dry season, their water needs were still met.

The water in every houses is open to overflow so that it channels to the water lane where the waterwheels are located. This became one of their electricity sources besides the solar panels in every house.

Cisoka Village has the potential to become a tourist area, especially for learning and research. Some of the attractions are tea leaves picking, geo-tracking, camping, and live-in with locals. Unfortunately, the road to Cisoka was damage, without lighting, and only certain types of vehicles could pass.

This remote setting can be an attraction, but if there was an improvement, it could 28

attract more visitors and make it easier for the villagers to commute to the inner city.

In social team, we learned many things about the local residents. We learnt how to blend with the residents, identified their kinship and relation one and another. Learning Sundanese was also helpful when interacting with the local residents because they were more open and welcome.

Construction Team Activities and purposes Tea house was built in the Summer Camp 2017. It was used as gathering hub for the residents of Cisoka Village. In Summer Camp 2018, tea house will be refurbished and upgraded. Tea house is a semi-permanent building with the main building material using bamboo supplied from Cisoka and preserved traditionally there (Awigombong bamboo from the forest). In connection with the theme of the Summer Camp ‘Water Conservation’, the construction of tea house and its development are expected to become a symbol and learning about water conservation, especially to preserve the balong water under the tea house and develop the land around tea house that uses the process water conservation.

The construction of tea house begins with cleaning and removing old tea house parts that are no longer feasible. The old part of tea house is like tepus, palupuh, and old bamboo.

The edge is a roof material made from plant leaves, namely tepus. The edge is a plant with elongated leaves, resembling the remaining plant leaves, but slightly larger. The leaves that are easily torn and fall out make them not durable. Palupuh is a floor that can be assembled made of bamboo. In addition to focusing on the construction of tea house, we also need to make a balong under the tea house.

33

“We get information about the placement of bamboo well from the Cisoka Village construction workers,” How to execute them After the old parts of the tea house are removed, the construction begins with the addition of a new bamboo column in the tea house facade. There is a division of work during the construction process, so that the construction remains effective and efficient.

Some of us focus on installing new bamboo, while others on making palupuh, bringing tepus and many other types of work. Here we get information about the placement of bamboo well from the local workers, they are Mang Adim, Mang Oyo, and Olot Ida. Some of the new information we have obtained is like the large part of the bamboo must be placed at the bottom. Placement of new bamboo is done by drilling and binding with steel wire.

This is also done on other parts which aims to strengthen the structure of the tea house.

The making of palupuh is to make floor which is made of bamboo cylindrical blankets.

Therefore, we must give bamboo a “hint” of how it should break. We make parallel cracks with the fibers using an axe. Cracks do not need to be too deep and big. Cracks are formed on the entire surface of the blanket.

Next, the bamboo is cut across, then we open the bamboo blanket, give additional cracks if it is still too difficult to open or the shape is not flat enough. We clean the bamboo bukuh, so that the bamboo can be opened properly.

Finally, clean the bamboo fibers so that the palupuh is produced neatly. The placement of palupuh as a tea house floor is done by nailing palupuh to the bamboo that supports 34

the palupuh. Suggestion from Mang Adim is that we should straighten the palupuh first, so that palupuh would not be deflated when nailed. If the palupuh was not straight when nailed, this would cause the palupuh to be damaged quickly and discomfort for the feet of the person visiting the tea house. We also do replacement of frames for small palupuh, with full bamboo beams with a closer distance (a small palupuh which is used to use “reng”, a quarter piece of bamboo stick).

This is done so that the palupuh holder becomes stronger than before.

For making tepus, it is done by Mang Adim and his men who are experts in making tepus. Tepus making techniques are very complicated, people who are unusual in making tepus will make tepus that is not strong and bad looking. The techniques should be done by people who have the ability and experience. The tepus must be made strong and neat for optimum durability.

We also do replacement of frames for small palupuh, with full bamboo beams with a closer distance (a small palupuh which is used to use “reng”, a quarter piece of bamboo stick). This is done so that the palupuh holder becomes stronger than before.

Finally, for the construction of balong, the balong at the bottom of the tea house is cleaned first from the previous construction waste. Some of the construction team together with Olot Ida and Mang Adim were

preparing the construction of the balong.

After getting directions to fill the balong with water, the water flow was carried out from the nearest balong pond. It was managed

by Olot Ida. The process of opening the flow initially used a hose, but this is considered ineffective. The method of using a hose is not effective because the height difference is not so significant and also the volume that can be moved is very small. We decide to open the flow by connecting water channel from the nearest pond to the balong tea house.

35

36

We have gained a lot of local knowledge during the construction process particularly on how to work with spontaneity in the field and adapt to change from what was planned in the studio. When the Olot Ida, Mang Adim, Mang Oyo, and Mang Usep gave information about construction in the field, we who were the people who usually work behind the desk were surprised and amazed.

understand and can do it. This whole construction process makes us happy, because during the construction process we also joke with them, and of course we are amazed by their skills and new knowledge.

There were few obstacles in communication because most construction workers used Sundanese. Nevertheless, we could communicate in Sundanese, Indonesian as well, and body language of course. When they teach us, we try wholeheartedly to carried out the work. They are very patient in teaching us with explanations until we 37

“This shows that local knowledge has a correlation with science,�

Output We get tips for harvesting bamboo. There are certain times that bamboo should not be harvested. Those times are; during the day, the full moon, the rainy season or when heavy rain has just happened, and the growth of new bamboo. All of this is not just a myth but is related to the water content and glucose levels in bamboo which will affect the strength of bamboo during construction. This shows that local knowledge has a correlation with science.

This kind of science does not have to come from research studies or experiments in the laboratory only, but this knowledge can also be obtained from the direct field or people who are involved in the field. And most importantly, we get various kinds of technical knowledge in the field: the correct way of sawing, cutting, drilling, and many other things. Thank You Olot Ida, Mang Adim, Mang Oyo, Mang Usep, and other cisoka villagers who have helped us during the construction process.

40

In the end, we got the idea of developing tea house as a part of ecotourism village, by building glamping areas around tea house.

We hope the concept of ecotourism will develop Cisoka’s potentials. It also represents cisoka as water conservation area where there are man-made water catchment area and plantation. Glamping area includes camping ground, campfire area, vegetable garden where there are mini-balongs, and tea house, surrounded by fruit trees. There will be a bathroom and two raincatcher umbrellas, as illustrated:

Summer Camp SAPPK 2018

Part 2

Rancaekek

“... we are now tapping consequences of soil and water degradation in Rancaekek.”

Ngalokat Cai, Ngamumule Bumi The second case of Summer Camp SAPPK 2018, Rancaekek, is a peri-urban area in Bandung Urban Region. It is chosen to be the case study since it represents a crucial finding of Bandung City in Eight Indonesian Cities Reseach (by TNF) that face food and clean water scarcity to the scale or Bandung Basin Urban Region. This research looks at peri-urban area as a critical marginalized area yet also a strategic entry point to generate integrated infrastructure network to sustain food and water security in the urban region of Bandung Basin.

The peri-urban phenomenon of Rancaekek is an extent of urbanization impact driven by the growth of Bandung City as the urban core. Formerly directed as national granary in 1970s, Rancaekek was as well to support, mainly, textile industry plants in the fringe of Bandung City that connected to Bandung City urban core as a unit of satelite city. Today, Rancaekek represents the transformation of a rural to urbanized area through 50 years of development, in physic, economy, and social aspects.

For Bandung City, only by taking account the ecological vicinity of Bandung Basin Watershed along with it’s ecological pattern, 62

the concequences of urbanization can be evaluated to be in accordance to the principle of sustainability. It is in which the sum of current development will not be in debt to the future generation. Putting together Bandung City and Rancaekek within Bandung Basin Watershed with decades of urban activities, we are now tapping the consequences of soil and water degradation in Rancaekek.

Aggravating its function as an environmental buffer to the urban core. With complex social and economical issues, Rancaekek demands an innovative as well as integrated advice to survive and thrive the future challenges.

Rancakek is (only) a representation of the overall situation in Bandung Basin Watershed.

The extent of research, innovation, and action, however, need to regard the superimposing natural pattern of Bandung Basin Watershed and the distinct urban charracters, i.e. Bandung City at the core, surrounding regencies, and the peri-urban areas in between the core city and the core of the regencies.

As the sub-theme of “Ngalokat Cai” understanding the behaviour of water, Summer Camp in Rancaekek represents a term of “Ngamumule Bumi” - nurturing

and preserving the earth. Through field trip, lectures, and workshop with community engagement, the second case of Summer Camp in Rancaekek is prepared to share better understanding of human-nature relationship in the process of urban development - the mistreats, best practices, and lesson learned. At the end of the understanding, however, a contribution and collaboration of human as agent of change in the development process remain crucial.

Therefore, the community engagement in this Summer Camp case is aimed as an exercise of collaboration of how to make a better relationship with nature.

The event is part of the collaboration of community facilitation program hold together

by Pilar Tunas Nusa Lestari Foundation (TNF), Architecture Program - SAPPK ITB, Architecture Alumni - ITB, and Student Organization of Architecture - ITB. The objective of the program is to be a platform for students to learn, understand, and explore how architecture can contribute to sustainable urban development through a grounded experience of real situation.

63

Where we start The Integrated Peri-urban Concept is proposed as development concept for Bandung Basin Watershed to tackle food and water security challenges that focus on the potential of peri-urban areas as an entry point to direct urbanization and to bridge urban rural network. This concept is underpinned by the ecological role of the ridge, the valley, and the lake bottom of Bandung Basin Watershed. To regard hydrological force that control the flow of materials and nutrients, the ridge is to be conserved as a forest to function as water and fertility conservation, and sediment control area; the urban core in the basin’s valley to the lake bottom is to be densified as the central of development with functional green network to be integrated with urban infrastructures.

64

Meanwhile, the rural to peri-urban area in the other side of basin’s valley and lake bottom are proposed to be empowered by integrating housing, agriculture, infrastructure, conservation, and restoration functions to prepare the peri-urban area as a support system for the urban region towards food security. Also, to use the integrated functions as an infrastructure to link the green network in the urban core and the conservation forest in the ridge to bridge ecological connectivity towards fertility and water sustainability.

Derived in micro scale, the proposed model is by integrating recovery and management of soil and water and improvement of food production in the household scale agriculture.

What we do Summer Camp SAPPK 2018 - Rancaekek consists of 11 days. The last two days are planned to work on the final project with the local community. To support better understanding of the situation of the case study as well as the impact of the contribution, lectures, fieldtrip, and workshop are arranged to see the relationship of physical-environment, socio-cultural, and economy aspects in the micro, messo, and macro scales. The better understanding about natural ecology of Bandung Basin, the development pattern, issues and problems, as well as challenges and opportunities aimed to give integrated insight for the participants.

As part of Summer Camp ITB 2018, TNF stands as facilitator for community facilitation collaboration. Powered by TNF; Architecture Program - SAPPK ITB; Architecture Alumny - ITB; and Student Organization of Architecture - ITB, Summer Camp SAPPK - Rancaekek is a continuous collaboration that prepared for various actors to holistically learn about urbanization issues in Bandung Urban Region and to contribute to solution and action. However, although the program is prepared as a continuity of the implementation of Integrated Peri-urban 68

Concept, we are anticipating a diverse approach in the proposed action. It is considering that a sustainable community empowerment must be a keen facilitation regarding community’s proposal. Still, proposal to sustain environmental concern, mainly towards food and water security, is prioritised.

At the end of the event, participants expected to be able to place design and planning case in the right context, to include the layering messo and macro contexts; identify the interconnection of social, economy, and physical-environment aspects concerning the occuring phenomenon; and to be able to work together with the society as well as inter-diciplinary parties to build and testify an integrative solution.

The first three days are arranged to give introduction about the natural ecology and development pattern of the core city of Bandung as the messo level that has been the generator of the development itself.

Shifting the view from urban core to the periurban, the fourth and fifth days are arranged as live-in experience in Rancaekek. These two days are prepared as an introduction to the real situation of the second case

69

of Summer Camp - to get to know the difference between the urban core and the peri-urban, the discrepancy, as well as the connectivity.

At the end of the fifth day, the participant group is expected to come with the conclusion of the main problem and conclusion for the final project. Day six to nine are arranged to confirm the situation of peri-urban areas around Bandung urban region, to comprehend the issues as well as to gather insight and lesson learned from many interventions best practice. In day ten, participants are expected to develop detail plan of the final project and make the initial execution to be finished at day eleven.

As the understanding of the situation and type of final project are planned to come from participant and local community’s own comprehension, the result is within expectation can be varied. However, the scenery in Rancaekek shows strong issues in garbage management and water sanitation.

These issues come along with the potential of community leadership and the rising of young community activities. Other than enthusiast and progressive community leader, groups of young community are formed and managed by local leaders to provide place for young ex-alcoholic to express and actualize themselves.

As the local community suggests, the final project is to build a public toilet with 70

examplary of water filtration system that can be replicated in every household in Rancaekek. The public toilet with water filtration system is placed next to home garden and designed to be more naturefriendly with rain water treatment as clean water source and reusing waste water for irrigation. This small household infrastructure is expected to be the initial step of better relationship between human and nature in Rancaekek community.

Day 1

Wednesday, 1 August, 2018 Opening and Summer Camp 2018 Cases Introduction Objective and Method First day is an introduction of Summer Camp SAPPK 2018. For Rancaekek case, the objective is to deliver understanding of inter-relationship of peri-urban phenomenon in Rancaekek with Bandung City and Bandung Basin. Rancaekek is seen as a micro component with Bandung City in the messo scale and Bandung Basin as the macro scale controlling unit.

The materials are delivered in the form of lectures and field trip to related sites to allow participants to recognize the dynamic of Bandung City and its relation with natural base of Bandung Basin Eco-region. The field trip is mainly aimed to give basic understanding of the ecological nature of Bandung Basin that has specific hydrogeological character.

Event Summary The fieldwork takes place along the Cikapundung River based on hydrological and geological knowledge to illustrate the important context of the Bandung Basin region on sustainability of watershed.

Participants are expected to recognize the dynamic of Bandung City and its relation with 72

natural base of Bandung Basin Eco-region.

Summary of Participants’ Notes In the introduction lecture about Bandung Basin and Rancaekek as the micro component, it is said that planning and development in peri-urban area are very important as a buffer for the city core. The planning and development for peri-urban need to be holistic and fit to the scale.

In the second lecture, Cimahi as comparison to peri-urban Rancaekek is facing clean water provision issue. Several factors that lead to the issue are the high and increasing number of population as well as majority land occupation by military. Today, Cimahi tries to provide the clean water by tapping water resource from nearby sources from outside the city administrative boundary.

In the field trip to Cikapundung River, it is said that Cikapundung is the miniature of Citarum Watershed. So called since it reflects how the water of Cikapundung is very important for Bandung citizen. Water quality and quantity determine how it can support the life of the city, yet it is now threaten by the pattern of city development. The riparian, the wetland area between the river channel and upper land, is supposed to hold naturalisation process that regulate the water quality and quantity. Yet, today, it is mostly no longer exist since the river is channelized and/or the riparian is occupied by settlement. In Teras Cikapundung and above segment, however,

we can see fragments of riparian forest that might still hold the function of naturalisation even though it might not conform with the amount of the pollutant increasing along with the city development.

In the particular site of the field trip, the channel bed shows different character of stone layers. This different geological character shows different pattern of water absorption. Some area might not be able to be infiltrated by water, both direct rain water and run off. Some areas might have high ground water table with high ability to absorb water. Therefore, some areas might prone to more sedimentation rather than flood and other area might be vulnerable to both flood and accumulation of sediment. To relate with Bandung Basin, the ecology is very much driven by it’s hydro-geomorphological condition as an ancient lake. Some areas have a very high ground water table. In the lower part of the basin where the ground water table is high as well as the soil saturation, it will have more vulnerability of flood. This area is mostly the South-Eastern part of the Bandung Basin.

Day 2

Thursday, 2 August, 2018 Introduction of Socio-Cultural, Well-being, and Public Health in Urban Society Objective and Method Second day is an introduction to layers of intangible and tangible issues in the urban area which are socio-culture, well-being, and public health. The objective is to understand the history of Bandung development.

The introduction explains the old city center of Bandung, Braga, that represents not just the center of service but also the center of early settlement in the city. At the end of the field trip participants are invited to the coffee shop to discuss, map, and identify the critical intervention point to improve socio-cultural and health aspects.

Event Summary The experience and discussion on the fact of kampong living in the center of Bandung show the issues, the conflict, and the interdependency of access to water for household level in term of health, culture of consumption, marginalization of kampong inhabitant compared to the business side of Bandung citizen.

Summary of Participants’ Notes The lecture about water management shares two variables in the use of water, those are 76

quality and quantity. Meanwhile, the aspect that relate to the variables in the built area are: policy and regulation, institution, and human activity. So far, in Indonesia, water quality and quantity problems are mostly caused by human activities. The pollution that affects the quality of water is related to limited sanitation facilities, poor performance of industrial waste treatment, and uncontrolled pesticide.

Water management is a management of water resource that usually thrive in an urbanized society to make better provision of water to support life. In modern urban society, the management is to include policy and regulation that give rule for water quality standard, water quality control and utilization - can be through water sharing and water protection, and water treatment - through biofiltration or phytoremediation with wetland plants but the plants afterwards become inedible. The water treatment is principally to treat black water for human secretion as well as grey water from human secretion, domestic waste, urban drainage, and/or irrigation waste with filtration.

The objective is to imitate the naturalisation process of riparia to clean the water so that it can be reused as clean water resource or to be flown back to water surface resources such as pond, lake, or river.

In the field trip to Braga, it gives the experience of socio-cultural aspect of

Bandung City. The most important part of the cultural process in the settlement and/ or district is the formation of identity. Braga, started with kampong and grew as a old town district, has a strong identity since it has unique identity and socially significance for Bandung City. The unique identity of Braga shows the sense of “who we are”, sense of place and “where from”, as well as strong economic identity; while its social significance lies on the sense that the district has become the cultivation center of the culture of Bandung city.

That today Braga has been revitalized to be once again commercial district, it shows gap between the kampong and the commercial corridor. However, the change of the visitors of the commercial corridor has become part of the district image. While the kampong remain informal in term of mostly detached from formal sanitation and health provision, there is an evidence of private commercial intervention to fill in the gap for clean water provision.

Day 3

Friday, 3 August, 2018 Introduction to Inter-relationship of Cultural and Physical Issues within Regional and Global Contexts Objective and Method Third day is a consecutive introductory to inter-relationship of intangible and tangible issues in the urban area. Day three focuses on the observation of inter-relationship of cultural and physical issues within context of regional and global dynamic. The issues are delivered through representation of public infrastructure and public spaces related to settlement agglomerations through out Bandung City and its fringe. Field trip and lectures are delivered during observation to public infrastructure and to several public parks.

The objective is to experience and question the impact of infrastructure development to urbanization and settlement patterns as representation of cultural agglomeration, as well as different impact of infrastructure development imposed to the urban core, peri-urban, and sub-urban to rural areas.

Participants also observe the changes on population density and how regional dynamic drive the changes.

Event Summary One from the whole park visited in the 80

programme (Alun-Alun Ujung Berung) didn’t directly show the correlation of water in urban living as well as public space provision from the government. Water existance related to happiness, hygiene, and sustainability of the park.

Summary of Participants’ Notes The third day is a field trip by Bandros to several public spaces in Bandung City.

The diverse observation of public space shares comparison of city’s textures that are shown by how the public space adapt to the surrounding areas, including physical, social, and economic aspects. It is also shows how the public space creates the image of the district.

The field trip is started in Forest Walk in Babakan Siliwangi. Here, the public space is a commemoration of what belongs to the society in the form of woodland resource given back again to the society as recreational and cultural space in the form of designated urban forest.

The field trip using Bandros from the city center to Alun-Alun Bandung (Bandung City Square) shows the shift of image represented by the streetscape to include the infrastructure. In juxtaposition, Alun-Alun Ujung Berung shows the different creation of space in the city center, old city center, and in the city frin,ge. It is not just by the design but more likely because of the visitors, activities they are doing within, and various

type of urban activities generated after, that eventually the public space becomes urban icon.

Day 4

Saturday, 4 August, 2018 Understanding Context, Issues, Phenomenon, and Urbanization Problem in Rancaekek Objective and Method On the day four, participants are brought to the site of the case study, Rancaekek. The objective is to share direct experience of perceiving environmental and agglomeration issues. At the end of the session, participants are expected to understand the urgency of community empowerment and increasing food and water security issues at the site.

Observing from the train from Bandung to Rancaekek, the participants are directly shown the connectivity of urbanization and peri-urban phenomenon through the changes of settlement pattern and density.

Arrived in Rancaekek, participants visit and assist young community of Rancaekek; observe formal and informal settlement development pattern, as well as co-living housing alternative; live-in in Kebon Belajar Rancaekek while grasp the logic of Kebon Belajar and Co-living alternatives as hubs of changes regarding food and water security. In the evening, small discussion with local community is held to dig out local’s perspective about critical issues and urgent intervention to tackle the issues.

84

Event Summary of Day 4 Day 4 consists of in-depth observation of Rancaekek: physical-economic-social relation with the access to water for living, industry, agriculture, and public infrastructure, inculding the decreasing of water quantity.

The present issues are: the quality of open water system and ground water are highly contaminated by domestic waste water, garbage, industrial wastes, and agriculture residu, i.e the irrigation water is poisonous and dry during dry season. Conflict during the dry season is related to limited access to water that has been “ruled” by the industry.

Summary of Participants’ Notes Day four is about getting to know Rancaekek.

We start early from the train station and see the shift of scenery from the downtown Bandung to the peri-urban Rancaekek. The shift is shown by the change of settlement density from high density in the downtown and gradually lowering to the peri-urban.

We also see how the macro context of Bandung Basin ecology and messo context of Bandung City related to Rancaekek. As we arived, we see what has already done in Kebon Belajar Rancaekek and what is trying to build in Co-living by Tunas Nusa Foundation.

After lunch that we all cooked together, we start our walk in the neighborhood of Rancaekek. To compare with what we have previously seen in Babakan Siliwangi and Braga, we observe the development in

Rancaekek from the settlement typology.

We try to identify the formal and informal settlements and the differences. Even though the formal settlement is developed in more well-arranged lot, sanitation and greening are lacking, similar to the informal settlement. Both are losing connection with regional infrastructure. However, some parts of the informal settlement have a very poor sanitation situation. The source of water that they use for sanitation is from natural pond with accumulation of garbage and hiacynt plant at the pond fringe. The plant is indicating accumulation of pollutant in the water showing evidence of poor water quality.

In the evening we talk together with representative of Rancaekek community, including the two young leaders about the situation with the youth and environment in Rancaekek. We ask suggestion about what might be best thing to do for final project. As it needs to be something that can easily replicate as well as tackling the urgent issue in Rancaekek. Although garbage management is severe, we come to the conclusion that a public toilet next to space to learn gardening will be best to do for the mean time. Since it has been proven that greening the environment raises community awareness and care to their environment.

Day 5

Sunday, 5 August, 2018 “To be A Rancaekek” and Solution Initiation Objective and Method Day five is a wrap up session of site observation. Started early in the morning with role playing as Rancaekek small family, participants and facilitators are asked to make a group of two to do grocery shopping to local market. Limitation is given that the grocery for a day meal cost only Rp.20,000. 00 (exclude rice or staple food and frying oil).

The objective is to pull out the understanding of Rancaekek peri-urban situation in terms of social, cultural, and economy aspects, by asking participants to be in the real situation in Rancaekek. After the role playing, discussion is made to sort the best solution might be given at the end of Summer Camp.

Event Summary of Day 4 and 5 After series of observations and discussions on the day four and five, the conclusion is that waste and water management are urgent issues in Rancaekek. At the mean time, solutions that demand government or formal institution intervention will take more time for trust building while the issues might worsened. Therefore, strategic action that can be delivered at the end of Summer Camp is a prototype of water management for household scale, by building public toilet 88

(MCK), using simple bio-engineering water filtration system.

Summary of Participants’ Notes At day five early in the morning before breakfast, we do a role playing ourselves as the people of Rancaekek being given a task to shop to the local market for a day family’s meal costs for Rp. 20,000. The amount of money is similar to what Rancaekek people use to spent for one day meal. We make a group of two representing member of a family. Each group sets a different situation of the family as a background of the decision making: what need to be bought with Rp. 20,000 rupiah so that all family members can be provided with sufficient nutrient.

The role play gives us lesson that even though shopping for whole family member will be more efficient than shopping for one person, community of Rancaekek has a low purchasing power. This experience in Rancaekek resembles to the situation of household assistant in Bogor that spends Rp. 10,000 for small amount of vegetables to make a day meal.

After breakfast we have discussion about the physical and environmental situation of the local market since the garbage problem is related to the management of the market.

What design scenario that can be proposed to enhance the physical quality of the market as well as give solution to the garbage management?

Along with the local market proposed design discussion, we also discuss deeper about the final project we plan to work on at the end of Summer Camp.

The main added value from the public toilet is that it has water filtration system. We make group of three to propose design of the filtration tool. The requirement is that we can only use the available material in the neighbourhood such as flannel cloth, crushed brick, gauze cloth, charcoal, and gravel. After lunch we test out the filtration tool with two different water sources, the first source is from Kebon Belajar’s paddy field and the second source is from nearby paddy field. We appear to see the different quality of water before and after filtration, and the first source seems to have better quality rather than the other because the water is already filtrated with gravel and plants before it irrigates the paddy field.

Day 6

Monday, 6 August, 2018 Testing Out Understanding to Various PeriUrban Characters Objective and Method Day six is field trip and discussion to another peri-urban area in the west of Bandung, Cijerah. Cijerah is presumed to have a different type of peri-urban character due to the adjacent location to landform bending from the basin ridge at the South West with a massive industrial penetration. The objective is to test out the previously shared understanding about Bandung and its urbanization dynamic issues.

The field trip on day six is to visit local market and settlement of Cijerah next to the industry plant. A similar role play at Cijerah is conducted as well. At the end of the event, participants are expected to distinct the economy and environmental conservation challenges of Cijerah peri-urban.

Event Summary Cijerah as a peri-urban developed from agriculture settlement to a fast and hectic urban industry illustrates the socio-economic marginalization and the degradation of environment, shown by a dark river full of solid wastes, a contaminated water consumed by the worker living in a dense kampong.

92

Summary of Participants’ Notes At day six we have a field trip to Cijerah, another peri-urban area in Bandung. The first place we visit is the local market. We do the similar role play in the Cijerah local market.

The price is nearly similar; however the price of main spices relatively higher than what is in Rancaekek local market. The difference is that Cijerah local market is close to local terminal, therefore it is also a transportation hub. That makes the traffic so crowded especially in the rush hours. The physical situation and the management of goods also seem poor.

Walking to the settlement, we stop at kindergarten and observe the snacks sold nearby. The snacks seem in a poor quality, and with the same price, better food can be purchased at the local market.

The situation in the formal settlement seems better to what we saw in Rancaekek. Yet, the informal settlement shows a bad air quality, bad sanitation, not enough sun light, and poor quality of clean water. There are lots of high-density housing. We also find tenement and rent space for textile industry worker. The worker usually rents the space because there is not enough room provided by the company.

Day 7

Tuesday, 7 August, 2018 To Enrich Alternative Solutions (1) Objective and Method Field trip, workshop, and discussion at another side of northern Bandung are day seven activities. As continuity to grasp another peri-urban character, workshop and field trip to two kampongs in Lembang are aimed to give insights for solutions.

Discussion of agriculture chains in Lembang is also managed to give comprehension about the challenge for Lembang farmers.

Contrasting with Lembang function as conservation area, the challenge of this peri-urban area comes from settlement and tourism penetration. At this context, participants are expected to understand the challenge of agriculture in conservation area, as well as to learn about the endeavor for community education and empowerment.

Event Summary Lembang agriculture and tourism area developed from conservation area showing a gap of insfrastructure provision from the government with an illustration of a bunch of plastic pipe of water supplies connected to the spring water in the uphill. The other sustainable issue is the importance of agriculture versus the existence of cow menure in all the open water systems.

96

Summary of Participants’ Notes At day seven, our field trip goes to another peri-urban area in Lembang. We learn about community education developed by Pak Hendro, Mbak Pinah, and Ibu Ilsa. Pak Hendro has managed mini observatories that are integrated with 'musholla' as an eco-tourism attraction called Imah Noong. He has been working with local community to manage the observatories as well as share the knowledge about environment through astronomy.

Bu Ilsa as public health expert shares her experience on how to make soy bean cake or 'tempe'. She introduced soy bean cake making in the poor health condition area in Nepal. She found that soy bean cake can indicate water quality and help to cure diarrhoea.

Other than that, Bu Ilsa and Mbak Pinah share story how they build and manage Sanggar Belajar. They tell us that it is not easy to introduce it to the neighborhood and make them accept the Sanggar Belajar as part of their community. It is important to be patient and approach the community slowly to gain their trusts. Who is needed to be approached is also important to take into account.

Field trip to Lembang shows a fast growing agricultural rural area that now has become a tourism area. The rising phenomenon that goes with the development process is that more land is owned by foreign people. That caused more local community can only work as peasant for other land owner.

Day 8

Wednesday, 8 August, 2018 To Enrich Alternative Solutions (2) Objective and Method Observing Soreang as the capital of Bandung Regency is the activity of day eight. This aims to observe similar sites as previous field trip, i.e. local market, settlement, and Citarum River as additional object, as well as to introduce river as the benchmark of physical and environmental development.

Having similar proximity to Bandung City as peri-urban area, Soreang has a strongly different character as Rancaekek. In this day, participants are expected to see governance and politic layer in urban development and its impact to socio-culture, economy, and environment in peri-urban areas.

The field trip ends at Saung Udjo with music and dance performances and other traditional arts to refresh and entertain all participants. In the meantime, we also illustrate that in various peri-urban characters in Bandung Urban Region, Sundanese culture still the core character of the society. Any empowerment or development might need to consider the tangible as well as intangible values of it to see the identity as an entry point.

100

Event Summary From all the peri-urban experiences, Soreang shows “better� environment condition, but still we can find a neglected river behind traditional market.

Summary of Participants’ Notes On day eight we have one more peri-urban comparison to Soreang. Soreang is chosen since it is the capital of Bandung Regency.

The assumption is that although it is a periurban area to Bandung City, its function as capital for Bandung Regency might make it more significant to be developed formally.

As region that developed to be satellite city for Bandung City, garment and confection industries are the main development generator in Soreang.

The observation shows that the local market in Soreang is better than ones in Rancaekek and Cijerah. The commodities in the market have better quality because the supplier is closer to Soreang. Similar to Cijerah, local market in Soreang also becomes a transportation hub because it is close to local terminal.

We also observe the public space in Soreang.

We see Alun-Alun Soreang that is used daily by students from nearby school acts as an extension of school activities. In the morning and afternoon, parents who pick up the students also use the public space as onstreet parking area.

Moving to other object, we see the river passing through Soreang. We see accumulation of trash on the river indicating bad environmental management in the region. At the end of our field trip we enjoy the performance in Saung Ujo. There, we see rich and cheerful Sundanese culture that has been the core identity of Bandung.

Day 9

Thursday, 9 August, 2018 Preparation for Implementation Objective and Method Day nine is to have lecture and discussion towards solution implementation in Rancaekek. Lecture is given by Dr.-Ing. Andry Widyowijatnoko ST,MT about the basic knowledge of bamboo as construction material. Discussion for solution towards issues in Bandung Basin is conducted after.

At the end of the session, participants are expected to come with strategy that situates Rancaekek within Bandung Urban Region issues and context; as well as to use it as framework to derive it into micro scale action plan.

Event Summary A lecture about bamboo as alternative material for building construction is aimed to set basic knowledge about bamboo. At the end of session, the participant and facilitator are exploring the material by making a model using public toilet building as the prototype.

Summary of Participants’ Notes At day nine, Pak Andry as our lecture is introducting the characteristic of bamboo and the use of bamboo for building construction.

The benefit of bamboo is that it is a renewable resources; does not need fertilizer, pesticide, and herbicide; a fast grown 104

vegetation; has a versatile uses; low waste; affordable; and has a high biomass. There are two types of bamboo applications: for substitutive application, as a replacement for other type of materials; and for conventional application. Bamboo needs a preservation treatment using borax so that it can last longer. It is suggested to use appropriate bamboo characters for construction material.

Things that need to be considered to choosing bamboos are: the diameter that is related to the species of bamboo; length of bamboo that will relate to the transportation method to the construction site; choosing the appropriate type of join; and to use appropriate simplification.

Day 10

Friday, 10 August, 2018 Action Day (1) Objective and Method Day ten is the action day 1. At this day, technical discussion to build guideline for the work is made early in the morning. After the discussion the action is started with site preparation, materials mobilisation, and initial construction. Resources for today action are student participants, facilitators, resources persons, and community participants consist of: community of RW 11, Rancaekek Wetan as well as the young from Sanggar Seni Kasunda and Karang Taruna Rancaekek Wetan.

Event Summary The final project of Summer Camp aims to find and share the possible answer to the water, food, and environmental issues of Rancaekek. The MCK project illustrates an alternative construction material that can be used by the community while the series of filter run the filtration : 1. rain water and ground water filter to improve the quality of water for consumption. 2. The grey water filters aims to recycle the water in a better way 3. Black water filter through septic tank aims to recharge the environment with a better quality of water.

Day 11

Friday, 11 August, 2018 Action Day (2) Objective and Method Day eleven is the action day 2 and the last day of Summer Camp SAPPK 2018.

The goal of the session is to finish up the MCK construction. Participants, facilitators, resources persons, community participants and several lecturers from previous session are involved in the construction process.

Although construction can not be finished on time, the critical issues of peri-urban areas, urgent solution, and the benefit of collaboration are well received by all parties.

At the end of the session we share our experiences and impressions regarding the Summer Camp program. Just before the session end, a short discussion with local leaders is conducted. This results in decission to continue the collaboration in Rancaekek to empower the community, especially to tackle waste, food and water security issues.

Summary of Participants’ Notes The tenth and eleventh day are planned to finish the final project. Together with the Rancaekek's young communities we build the public toilet and water filtration with filtration garden above it. The public toilet is constructed using plastered bamboo wall.

To support the public toilet with complete 112

infrastructure, besides preparing the black water treatment area, we establish three types of water filtrations, i.e. two water filtrations for rain water and ground water, both are to be used as clean water resources; the other one is grey water filtration, which is build to clean the waste water before it is used for garden irrigation.

Rain water filtration is placed next to the roof gutter, while the ground water filtration is placed close to the water tank. Between black water treatment infrastructure and grey water filtration we make a controlling basin that collect grey water from black water treatment residue, grey water from the toilet and washing gutter before treated by the water filtration for the irrigation purpose.

Althouh the public toilet building construction can not be done at the end of the day eleven, we are all happy to see what we can build together. Moreover, we test the water from nearby paddy field (with no prior filtration) and run it through the filtration pipe, to find out that cleaner water is come out from the filtration pipe. After all the hard work, we sit together at Co-living first unit to review our process throughout Summer Camp event.

We experience a new challenge of working with people of many backgrounds. A physical work and real experience working within and with local community give us a new understanding of working on building construction – as we never been thought at

the school, appreciating the work of others, and knowledge exchange - more than we can share. We learn the complexity of diversity and real site challenge that most of the time need some necessary adjustments. We also learn to find common sense of team-working.

Lesson Learned, Conclusion, and Recommendations

Lesson Learned

Lesson Learned 1: Macro Summer Camp Rancaekek shared experience in four peri-urban areas within Bandung Urban Region, which are: Lembang in the North, Cijerah in the West, Soreang in the South, and Rancaekek in the East of Bandung Basin. The four samples exhibited similar pattern of changes, those are: shifting of land use, its confilct, and marginalization; shifting of demographic maps, culture, profession, and relationship between people; deteriorated access to food and water with alteration to distinct form of access; in the process of environmental degradation and widening infrastructures gap. To sum up, the observation showed the urgent situation of food and water avaliability in all peri-urban areas and its impact to the welfare of the people and the sustainability of Bandung Basin.

Lesson Learned 2: Messo The survey to several main parks, which are: Bandung Forestwalk, Alun-Alun Cicendo, Taman Balai Kota, Alun-Alun Regol, AlunAlun Ujungberung, Alun-Alun Bandung, and a peek to the Gallery of Bandung gave hint towards journey of the city; its 116

charcteristics; and indication of future issues, opportunity and challenges. The journey, the view, the people we met illustrate a city in development. There is strong attempt of the government to fairly provide open public spaces for people to meet, talk, play, collaborate, and socialise around Bandung City. Although, there is indication of escalating activities beyond its capacity to bear.

Other than that, field trip to the two rivers (Cikapundung and Ciwidey) provided understanding of water systems that functioned as infrastructure in the city level and naturally related to regional system. Adjacent to the water systems, the reality of urban kampongs or Babakan illustrated knowledge, and insight of sociocultural element in the urban life. What we observed in this survey are urban kampongs characteristics, issues, challenges, as well as opportunity of improvement and actions.

Lesson Learned 3: Micro The walk, discussion, and interaction during the process of building water filtration and public toilets in Rancaekek provided in-depth insight of peri-urban characteristics, issues, opportunies as well as alternative ways to

117

improve and contribute to the betterment.

There is water scarcity issue in Rancaekek, yet at the same time there are risk of flood during monsoon season; soil and water pollution from agricultural activity, domestic waste, industrial activity, as well as from local market (wet market). Socio-cultural and economic issues still continuously change common family lifestyle as limited acces to land both for housing and agriculture purposes prevails.

The living laboratory Kebon Belajar Tunas Nusa is introduced as an examplary of agricutural model derived from integrated peri-urban concept. The objective of the development is to explore food selfsufficency and the improvement of environmental quality regarding intertwined issues in Rancaekek.

The family food shopping role play in Rancaekek and it’s comparison to Cijerah, gave participants understanding of the value 118

of money for peri-urban family while testing the access to appropriate food in relation to the need of nutrition and the buying capacity.

The discussion, followed by the construction of water filtration for grey water, rain water, ground water, and black water, elaborated the understanding of the knowledge.

It is also improved the technical skill as well as techniques of team-working and collaboration of the participants while doing knowledge sharing to the local community.

The construction is integrated to the design of the public toilet. The process was done to detail the design principles of public facility, and to implement sustainable construction and participatory development.

Conclusion 2: Continuum collaboration between stakeholders Potential for research, concept development, and innovation lies on the collaboration between participants, their educational institution, and facilitators from Tunas Nusa Foundation. For participatory projects, collaboration is potentially generated between community, students, and facilitators in Rancaekek Wetan and other peri-urban in Bandung Basin. Other than those potentials, following activity that has been in the process is: discussion with Development Study Program, SAPPK ITB for the development method on 19 September 2018.

Conclusion 3: Interdiciplinary and multilayers approach Diverse point of view given by different knowledge background of the participants created opportunity to advance the elaboration of interdisciplinary and multilayers approach of sustainable development.

The three layers prism model was used as framework on Summer Camp Rancaekek.

The approach and knowledge background of the participants gave opportunity to advance the elaboration of interdiciplinary and multi layers method on sustainable development. The three layers prism model gave the opportunity to the 11 days process an ellaboration of issues from three angles; physic – environment, socio – cultural, and 120

economy – power at macro level, messo level and micro level.

Conclusion 4: Understanding the whole processes The testimonies from participants and facilitators during evaluation highlighted the multi disciplines and multi level approaches and enriched the experiences from the field. The Summer Camp has channeled opportunity to the local stakeholder of Rancaekek towards improvement that is in accordance to tackle urgent issues. Still, feed back, possibilities for further research and actions are essentially expected.

Conclusion 5: Benchmark a. Understanding of message and follow-up action by stakeholders b. Scientific document on community-based development c. Collaboration acceleration on participatory action

Recommendations

a. To support real life experience, it is expected to have Summer Camp with interdisciplinary curriculum and to embed the interdisciplinary approach in the practices. b. To escalate and/or to widen the opportunity of structural impact, it is also expected to engage local governement in the next Summer Camp activities.

A Cup of Tea “

Why do we seek for knowledge outside the classrom?

“

Water has been an emerging issue that we need to critically rethink in the relation between human and natural environment that is mediated by architecture. While the notion of ‘building’ and ‘development’ have been continuously revisited due to its multi-dimensional aspects, little has been studied on how the everyday practices on water shape architecture. What is at stake about water which affects our perspective in understanding architecture in multiple contexts that are interrelatedly connected?

In Summer Camp 2018, we propose to ‘Ngalokat Cai’, understanding water behavior, with a multi-disciplinary approach. The camp had been a meeting point for students from architecture, planning, landscape design, development studies, environmental engineering, and infrastructural environment engineering.

All set in a whole experience in two camps with different issues on water. One camp is located in a rural context: a remote village on a highland, in between tea hills in Sumedang. Here, the villagers rely on 128

free-falling water springs from the tropical forest for daily agriculture livelihoods. The students are tasked to investigate how the village is situated between crossing issues: water conservation and eco-tourism area.

The other camp is located in peri-urban context: a growing settlement in Rancaekek where domestic and industrial waste threat groundwater and food supply. The students are challenged to propose intervention from social and environmental issue of urbanization process in urban fringe area.

The camp combines multiple learning methods, such as lectures, desk-study, studio workshop, and fieldwork. In the studio, the students are grouped in collaborative teams. They are situated to work with new people with different perspectives. Each team gathered information and collected data in order to identify key issues and analyze, discuss, criticize. The field had the key learning of Summer Camp program. It was important to push the cognitive learning from lectures, desk-study, and studio workshop into an actual experience in the field.

This year, every participant learned how to observe and ask questions about the role of water in shaping environment and witness everyday life of each context. More importantly, they learn how to listen to ‘the spirit of the place’ with all dynamics and attractions. Such affective and intuitive acts are the greatest lesson; the field makes the

camp distinct from the classroom. It takes beyond what we think to feel and get in. We hope the students experienced the joy of learning fairly from both, the head and the heart.

Architecture is space in between, moving, changing, shaped by ever-changing knowledge. Water as an issue in Summer Camp 2018 is our common ground to plant questions and seed the possibility of design in understanding a new perspective about our built environment.
