Abstract
Protected areas whose function have been converted became problems in many regions. The cause of landslides is still being studied whether it is natural conditions or human contributions, namely land use changes. Investigation of land use change events play an important role in environmental sustainability. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of land use change in protected areas against landslides. The method used is a surveillance method. The data is processed using non-parametric statistical tests by comparing the level of landslide hazards in areas where there is no land function conversion with those that have land function conversion. The data description shown that 58% of the protected function area in Samigaluh District had the potential for high landslides. The results obtained shown that there was a significant difference in the level of landslide hazard between areas with and without land function conversion. So that the land conversion that occurred in the protected forest in Samigaluh District had a significant effect on landslides as evidenced by the asymp sig (0.031) <p-value (0.05). This result becomes consideration for the local government in monitoring protected forests for environmental sustainability.
