The State of Indonesia's Forests 2022

Supported the Ministry through a technical review of the report.

Context

Indonesia's commitment to net-zero emissions by 2060 requires rapid transformation of its energy system — yet transitions that ignore social equity risk deepening inequality, displacing workers, and excluding communities from decision-making.

This programme worked with three provincial governments to embed social inclusion criteria into energy planning, drawing on participatory research and policy analysis grounded in local realities.

Approach

Dala led mixed-methods research combining household surveys, key informant interviews, and multi-stakeholder workshops across provincial capitals and coal-affected districts.

We developed a social inclusion framework for energy transition planning, tested through pilot provincial action plans and validated with civil society, utilities, and government partners.
