Resumen

Descripción

This report on the social dimensions of climate change in Indonesia provides a people-centered analysis of climate impacts and policies and puts local communities and governance systems at the heart of climate action. The report maps differentiated vulnerabilities to climate change across the archipelago and examines the potential effects of climate mitigation and adaptation policies on local communities, with a focus on the poor and most vulnerable. The report also explores how communities and subnational actors have responded to climate impacts and identifies strategies to accelerate climate adaptation and mitigation actions while ensuring that the most vulnerable groups benefit from these initiatives. Finally, the report underscores the importance of investing in social resilience by enhancing the collective ability of communities to withstand, recover from, and reorganize in the face of transitions. Local knowledge, traditions, and skills are important drivers of social resilience, alongside securing access to rights and resources, especially for marginalized groups. Strong local governance institutions which channel resources and technical support directly to local communities play a major role within Indonesia’s decentralized governance structure to manage the impacts of climate change and climate change policies.
