PLANNING OF KIWARI GREEN OPEN SPACE FACILITIES IN PEAT LAND: CASE STUDY OF THE REGION OF LAMBUNG MANGKURAT

Abstract

Planning of facilities and infrastructure of Green Open Space (GOS) on peatlands is an important aspect in developing a sustainable environment, especially in the area of Lambung Mangkurat University. This study aims to analyze the potential and challenges faced in developing GOS on peatlands. The methods used include literature studies and field observations to determine the location of GOS development. The results of the study indicate that the selection of appropriate vegetation, the use of a tropical approach to GOS planning, and the provision of supporting facilities such as pedestrian paths, food courts, prayer rooms, GOS, and open stages are very important to improve the ecological and social functions of GOS. These findings provide recommendations for the development of more effective GOS facilities on peatlands, with the hope of creating a healthier and more sustainable environment, especially for students and the surrounding community.
