Abstract

This article examines Indonesia’s role in supporting the goals of the Glasgow Climate Accords through women’s empowerment in social forestry programs. By analyzing previous research and using the theories of ecofeminism and green politics, the study assesses whether social forestry can aid in reducing greenhouse gas emissions and promote human rights values such as gender mainstreaming. The research reveals that while there are still gaps in forest management for women, social forestry programs provide opportunities for women to directly contribute to reducing the impact of climate change and drive economic empowerment in forest communities through the utilization of social forestry land. As a result, this article implies that Indonesia’s social forestry program has the potential to support the goals of the Glasgow Climate Accords by involving women as agents of change and promoting human rights values.
