印尼 Raja Ampat 以兒童閱讀連結島嶼守護，鎳礦爭議走進環境教育

Raja Ampat 一場原住民族聚會以兒童讀本討論島嶼生態與鎳礦風險，讓兒童以魚類、珊瑚與植物描述自身環境。

An Indigenous gathering in Raja Ampat used a children's book to discuss island ecology and nickel-mining risk, with children identifying fish, coral and plants from daily experience.

活動聚集 20 個 Raja Ampat 原住民族支系及其他地區代表，由 Greenpeace Indonesia 與 Institut USBA 組織。讀本《小島的傷口》以顏色消失呈現採礦可能造成的生態損失。

The event brought together representatives of 20 Raja Ampat Indigenous subtribes and visitors from elsewhere, organised by Greenpeace Indonesia and Institut USBA. The book The Wounds of Small Islands uses disappearing colours to portray potential mining damage.

Raja Ampat 位於珊瑚三角區，具有高度海洋生物多樣性。鎳礦供應與電動車材料需求帶來經濟機會，但小島生態、土地權、文化與觀光可能承擔集中風險。

Raja Ampat lies within the Coral Triangle and has exceptional marine biodiversity. Nickel supply and EV-material demand create economic opportunity, while small-island ecosystems, rights, culture and tourism may carry concentrated risk.

作者與插畫家透過在地物種、生活經驗與故事引導兒童記錄環境。社群也以跨部落聚會強化土地、水域與生物多樣性守護的連結。

The author and illustrator used local species, experience and storytelling to help children document their environment. The gathering also strengthened connections among communities protecting land, water and biodiversity.

來源指出 2025 年輿論反彈後，政府暫停相關作業並撤銷五張許可中的四張。這可證明政策行動，但教育活動是否改變長期決策、礦區狀態或生態結果仍未建立量測。

The source reports that after public backlash in 2025, authorities suspended operations and revoked four of five permits. This is evidence of policy action, but the education programme's long-term effect on decisions, mine status or ecological outcomes remains unmeasured.

環境教育若能保存地方物種名稱、地點、季節與變化觀察，可成為正式監測的補充。它不應被浪漫化為取代法律權利、科學調查或執法的工具。

Environmental education can preserve local species names, locations, seasons and observations as a complement to formal monitoring. It should not be romanticised as a substitute for legal rights, scientific assessment or enforcement.

SNN 編輯分析：台灣電池與電子供應鏈使用印尼鎳原料時，應把礦區許可、島嶼邊界、原住民族權利、復育與社群觀察連到採購證據。兒童與社群知識應取得同意並保留來源，不應被企業任意擷取。

SNN editorial analysis: Taiwan battery and electronics supply chains using Indonesian nickel should connect mine permits, island boundaries, Indigenous rights, restoration and community observations to procurement evidence. Children's and community knowledge requires consent and provenance, not corporate extraction.

後續應追蹤剩餘礦業許可、法院或政府決策、社群同意、環境監測及教育計畫是否持續由在地社群主導。

Next checks should follow remaining permits, judicial or government decisions, community consent, environmental monitoring and whether the programme remains community-led.
