Description
Summary:Urban beekeeping is an activity to keep honey bees in urban areas carried out by some residents of the Cibangkong sub-district, Batununggal sub-district, Bandung City. There is an ecological suitability and relationship between social and economic components during activities that are linked to the achievement of Sustainable Development Goals and the formation of community resilience using the approach developed by Berkes & Ross (2013). The case study approach is carried out using several methods such as drone imaging, observation, questionnaires and interviews with urban beekeepers, and the surrounding community. The results of geospatial data analysis show that the area of RW 02, Cibangkong sub-district, consists of 98% of built up land and 2% of undeveloped land. Undeveloped land consists of 95% private parks and 5% public parks. There were 93 cultivated bee colonies, consisting of 3 species of stingless bees, Tetragonula laeviceps, Tetragonula biroi, and Heterotrigona itama, which were placed in six different locations with medium average NDVI vegetation density. The bee-feeding vegetation is dominated by ornamental plants (53%), fruit trees (39%), vegetable crops (6%), and forestry plants (2%) which act as sources of plants producing pollen, nectar and resin. There are five environmental indicators, seven social indicators, and five economic indicators that appear in the interacting and interconnected urban beekeeping activities. The implementation of urban beekeeping activities is proven to be able to form community resilience because it has all the characteristics of a resilient community and can be used as a proposed activity in the Bandung City Climate Change Adaptation Program. A strengthening strategy is needed in the fields of institutions, area management, and business aspects in the implementation of urban beekeeping activities so that the resilience of the formed groups is more established.
