Abstract

Transformation of communal land ownership rights is prone to conflict. When the nagari community surrenders their communal land to the investor, the nagari receives a fee or bungo for the use of their communal land in the form of a smallholding plantation. Smallholding plantation which should still be communal land managed by nagari if it originates from nagari communal land, but in reality smallholding plantation can be sold and or transferred its ownership to communities outside the nagari. Many losses arising from the transfer of the ownership. On the other hand, the government does not yet have regulations that can prevent and overcome problems as a result of the transfer of communal land ownership. The local government does not yet have a policy that can maintain the existence of communal land ownership rights when the communal land is used for investment activities. For this reason, an effort is needed to change, influence, and urge local governments to play an active role in maintaining the existence of communal land ownership through the formulation and implementation of policies to protect the existence of communal land ownership. In public policy terminology, the effort to take action is referred to as policy advocacy. Efforts to do ad-vocation for this policy are carried out systematically and organized that can be done by individuals, groups, or an organization. As an applied research with a qualitative descriptive method, all data obtained in the field are coded and analyzed. The analysis results produce a conclusion that the advocacy strategy can be started by changing the perception of public problems by pointing out how public issues are perceived by the community, then defining the problem by pointing to the limitation of the problem by the public itself, and finally by mobilizing support for the entry of public issues / problems into government agenda. It is hoped that with this policy advocacy strategy, the problem of the existence of land ownership for investment after the transformation of communal land ownership can be overcome.
