It is common knowledge that reconciliation is a precondition that must be in place before conflicting parties cooperate. Likewise, a collaboration between the state and indigenous peoples in the implementation of ethnodevelopment must be preceded by reconciliation efforts or, in other words, the collaborative approach applied must be imbued with the spirit of reconciliation. There is a need to develop a collaborative approach to increase indigenous peoples' initial trust in the state or repair relations damaged by their history of 'oppression' and to overcome differences in the concept of development resource governance understood by the state and by indigenous peoples that are difficult to reconcile in a consensus. How big is the state power in collaborative development planning in customary territories so that indigenous people do not feel their power is limited and how this power distribution needs to be further studied. This study aims to examine the collaborative planning process between the state and indigenous peoples in the implementation of ethnodevelopment in the multiethnic region of Melanesia, Papua Province. The research was conducted using a qualitative approach and case studies to obtain the meaning of current social phenomena in the collaborative planning process there. The results show that as part of efforts to improve initial conditions, recognition of indigenous autonomy, which is applied in the form of ethnodevelopment implementation according to traditional governance, can increase the initial trust of indigenous people in the state so that they are willing to collaborate on the planning process to reach a consensus in implementing ethnodevelopment. according to government governance. Authentic dialogue between the government and the indigenous people, which does not always lead to a consensus and continues to be a place to foster the trust of the indigenous people in the state. This separate channel for the realization of indigenous autonomy is in line with the concept of reconciliation thinking. Aspects of culture and historical history affect the type of efforts to improve this initial condition.
