Abstract

Forum Komunikasi Daerah Aliran Sungai Citarum Plus shortened to FORKADASC + is a non-governmental organization focused on environmental issues. FORKADASC + is a non-governmental organization that initially focuses on the problems of the Citarum River. Various activities have been done by FORKADASC + to help restore the Citarum river ecosystem that has been damaged by people who do not care about the environment.This research uses Ralston's role theory with five indicators: identify local groups and tactics to meet local needs, mobilize and agitate for active efforts to pursue identified needs, formulate long- term activities to pursue long-term goals is more common, generating and mobilizing local or external resources for rural development activities, planning regulations and implementing activities. The results show that, Citarum Plus River Communications Forum Plus has performed its duty as a third sector institution that can contribute its thoughts to the government. FORKADASC + is capable of producing a program to oversee the citarum river and has become a regional policy, but it is unfortunate that in practice the local government has not been able to act decisively against the offending party.
