The present chapter provides an overview of the contextual framework of the book. The publication emerged as a product of a transdisciplinary collaborative research endeavor focused on addressing issues related to tropical peatlands in Indonesia. This chapter provides an overview of the emergence of tropical peatlands as a novel development frontier for plantation expansion, as well as the consequential ecological degradation leading to fire outbreaks and transboundary smoke damage. Additionally, it discusses the efforts undertaken by the Indonesian government and international organizations to conserve and restore tropical peatlands. The chapter posits that contemporary peatlands have evolved into a political sphere wherein various stakeholders, such as donors, central government ministries, local governments, environmental non-governmental organizations (NGOs), forestry and plantation companies, and numerous local communities, engage in a complex interplay. This is due to the fact that peatlands have become a contentious terrain for both plantation development and environmental conservation efforts. The occurrence of significant conflict of interests has primarily been observed at the local level, particularly within villages located in or near peatlands. Limited study has been conducted on the inter-disciplinary and transdisciplinary aspects of peatlands at the local level. Hence, the present study has directed its attention towards the preservation and rehabilitation endeavors of peatlands, with a particular emphasis on the village-level initiatives, as elucidated inside this publication.
