Peranan Lembaga Swadaya Masyarakat dalam Membangun Wacana 'Keadilan Iklim' dalam Perdebatan Perubahan Iklim di Indonesia
This thesis provides a study of the role of Civil Society Organisations
(CSOs) in introducing and promoting a climate justice discourse. As are other
governments around the world, the Indonesian government is responding to
climate change through various programs and policies for national development.
This thesis examines the role and position of CSOs in promoting the climate
justice agenda into the debate around key policies related to climate change.
Various civil society theories describe the context and interaction between civil
sociery and the State, and these are used to analyze the relationship of CSOs with
the State and its government in responding to climate change in Indonesia. The
key question addressed in this thesis is the role of NGOs in building and
advancing the discourse of 'climate justice' within the debate around climate
change policy in Indonesia, and how the Civil Society Forum for Climate Justice
(known as CSF) relates with the State in the context of climate change. The
research is qualitative, using in-depth interviews and literature studies focusing
on CSF, a coalition of 29 Indonesian NGOs working to advance issues related to
climate justice. The results show that there was no single theory that could
explain the relationship and the role of CSF vis-a-vis the State's position on
climate change, indicating that CSF is clearly positioned as separate from and
challenging the State in this debate. In advancing the climate justice discourse,
CSF has introduced the HELP framework, which focuses on human security,
ecological debt, land rights, and production-consumption patterns. These four
HELP pillars are the basis upon which climate justice is being introduced by CSF
for climate justice in Indonesia.104 HalamanTesis Magiste
Resisting Agribusiness Development: The Merauke Integrated Food and Energy Estate in West Papua, Indonesia
The Merauke Integrated Food and Energy Estate (MIFEE), launched in 2010 by the Indonesian government, aims to transform 1.2 million hectares of indigenous and forest land in West Papua into large-scaleagribusiness estates for food and bioenergy production. This article looks both at the power structures and geopolitics behind the project and at the emerging resistance to the MIFEE land grab. What is the extent of local opposition to the project? What coalitions between local groups and organized movements and NGOs are developing and what national and international alliances are theyinvolved in? How do they counter the state narrative of MIFEE as a development path for the region? Analyzing key documents of the diff erent organizations and initiatives involved, we examine three distinct but connected narratives of opposition around the discourses of customary forest rights, Indonesian ‘imperialist’ subjugation of Papua, and land reform and food sovereignty. We argue that their relation to each other needs to be rethought in order to overcome internal divisions and to broaden and deepen the social movement opposing the project
