BREAKING BIAS TO BUILD A MORE GENDER EQUALITY IN FACING THE ISSUE OF CLIMATE CHANGE IN INDONESIA - IN CONCLUSION

 In addition, women and men in rural areas of developing countries are particularly vulnerable when they are highly dependent on local natural resources for their livelihoods. These demands with responsibilities for securing water, food and fuel for cooking and heating face the greatest challenges. Second, when it comes to unequal access to resources and decision-making processes, limited mobility places women in rural areas in a position where they are disproportionately affected by climate change. It is therefore important to identify gender-sensitive strategies to respond to the environmental and humanitarian crises caused by climate change.

However, it is important to remember that women are not only vulnerable to climate change, but they are also effective actors or agents of change related to mitigation and adaptation. Women often have strong knowledge and skills that can be used in climate change mitigation, disaster reduction and adaptation strategies. In addition, the responsibilities of women in the household and community, as stewards of natural resources and households, position them well to assist in livelihood strategies that are adapted to the realities of environmental change.

 

 

IV.        Conclusion/Policy Recommendation

 

A.      Conclusion
 
1.         Climate change has had many impacts on life, namely human development, especially for women in the world and Indonesia in rural areas. The limited facilities and infrastructure as well as the lack of facilities when there is a drastic climate change can make their lives, for women, not better. For this reason, integration is needed with coordination and collaboration efforts between the government when making or formulating policies, it must involve many parties, namely the gender working group who upholds gender equality so that innovative change policies can be directed and socially just.
 
B.       Policy recommendation
1.         Governments should start to incorporate gender principles into climate policy making.
2.         The government should start collaborating with related parties, namely women's empowerment organizations or communities in order to support climate policy programs in Indonesia.
3.         The government must involve women in the regions through communities or social organizations in formulating innovative and socially equitable climate change policies.
4.         The government is prepared to formulate a national climate change policy which includes strong coordination between the climate change policy working group and the gender working group.
5.         The government must start to integrate gender issues in the formulation of climate change policies and regularly coordinate with interrelated collaborators. For example, coordinating and collaborating between communities or curriculum-based social organizations that promote skills for women in rural areas.

Lagu yang easy listening dan buat aku lagu ini, enak untuk diputar berulang-ulang. Awalnya kukira dari rit...
