Kata Pengantar
Upaya mendorong perubahan kebijakan publik baik yang berupa kebijakan maupun
peraturan perundangan dilakukan Solidaritas Perempuan (SP) untuk mendukung dan memastikan
perlindungan, penghormatan dan pemenuhan hak perempuan marjinal yang terlanggar perlu
dilakukan melalui berbagai strategi, antara lain dengan mengintervensi proses
pembuatan/penyusunan kebijakan dan mempengaruhi aktor-aktor pembuat kebijakan. Strategi ini
perlu juga didorong melalui proses menggalang dukungan publik atas upaya perubahan kebijakan,
dengan mengajak berbagai pihak untuk mendukung dan terlibat terhadap upaya tersebut, termasuk
dengan membangun jaringan untuk mendapat dukungan terhadap tujuan yang ingin dicapai. Hal ini
dilakukan Solidaritas Perempuan, baik secara organisasi maupun melalui anggota-anggota SP
dengan bersama-sama mengintervensi berbagai forum pengambilan keputusan di berbagai ranah,
baik di tingkat lokal, nasional, regional dan internasional. Salah satu upaya yang dilakukan
Solidaritas Perempuan adalah dengan mengkritisi dan menyampaikan pandangan, serta
rekomendasi SP kepada aktor-aktor pembuat kebijakan tersebut, baik negara maupun non negara.
Sepanjang periode Februari 2012-Februari 2015, Solidaritas Perempuan secara konsisten
mendorong perubahan kebijakan dalam berbagai forum nasional dan internasional, antara lain
Rio+20 untuk pembangunan berkelanjutan berbasis hak, Conference of Party (COP) of United Nation
Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) untuk keadilan iklim yang berkeadilan gender,
Green Climate Fund (GCF) untuk Pendanaan Iklim Global yang berkeadilan iklim dan berkeadilan
gender, serta Forest Investment Program (FIP) untuk Pengelolaan Hutan yang Partisipatif dan
Berkeadilan. Intervensi dilakukan dengan mengirimkan Submisi kepada pihak-pihak pembuat
kebijakan dan pemberi dana.
Submisi ini dikompilasi untuk tujuan mendokumentasikan pengetahuan dan pengalaman
SP, serta diharapkan dapat menjadi referensi dan pembelajaran dalam membangun kebijakan yang
berbasis hak dan berkeadilan serta inklusif, sensitif dan responsif gender, bagi setiap pemangku
kepentingan, baik dari kalangan Pemerintah, masyarakat sipil, pemberi dana, maupun badan PBB.

Sustainable Development Based On Ecological, Social And Gender Justice
A proposal to the Zero Draft of the Rio Summit in 2012
Submitted by Solidaritas Perempuan (Women’s Solidarity for Human Rights)
Indonesia
th
Though the Rio Declaration will soon celebrate its 20 Anniversary but the world right now doesn’t reflect
its success in achieving sustainable development goals. The existing development model continuously ignores
the pillars of social justice and of ecological justice. Hence, it strengthened the exploitation of natural
resources and people; and on the other hand it strengthened the impoverishment and injustices to
environment, social lives and women.
The Rio Summit, therefore, has to reaffirm the principles of Rio Declaration of 1992, to foster consistent
implementation based on principles of ecological, social and gender justice.
Social And Gender Justice Based Green Economy
Sustainable development based Green Economy will only achieve welfare for people –women and menwhilst nurturing the environment and its natural resources if the principles of ecological, social and gender
justice are integrated. The Green Economy concept should be provided in manner and languages accessible for
local and indigenous peoples including the women. Those principles are as follows:
1. Principles of Ecological Justice:
· Acknowledgement that natural resources are not trade or conservation commodities but an integral
aspect of human’s lives.
· Integration of local wisdom including local and indigenous women’s wisdom into the development of
Green Economy
· The utilization of natural resources have to take into account the sustaining relation between human kind
and environment and impacts of the utilization to lives of women and men.
2. Principles of Social Justice:
· Acknowledge and ensure the integration of principles of ecological and gender justice; democracy;
accountability; transparency; welfare of peoples; respect and protect human rights including women’s
human rights and rights of indigenous peoples.
· Any utilization of natural resources has to go through processes of Free, Prior and Informed Consent
(FPIC) particularly from peoples –women and men- whose lives directly depending from those natural
resources.
3. Principles of Gender Justice:
· Protect women’s human rights and particularly develop measures to involve women in decision makings
in any development in their places
· Set-up objectives and measures to eradicate gender injustices such as discrimination, double burden,
stereotype, violence, sub-ordination and marginalization against women
· Technology development for improvement of environment and fostering sustainable
development
should be people’s driven and accessible to people, including the women.
Governance of Sustainable Development
The good governance of sustainable development can only be carried out by implementing principles and
measures as follows:
 Consistent implementation of Agenda 21 based on principles of Rio Declaration, acknowledgement of
the rights of indigenous peoples, precautionary principles, common but differentiated responsibility,
polluter-pays principle and to include objectives of gender justice, and furthermore, strengthen access
of people to information and for public participation.
 Involvement of peoples, including women, at all levels of decision-makings at local, national, regional
and international level to implement sustainable development. Military is not allowed to intervene in
2

the implementation of sustainable development and not allowed to be executor of sustainable
development.
 Development of instruments and mechanism to protect rights of peoples including rights of indigenous
peoples and women’s human rights. These will include accountability mechanism for any policy,
program and project of Green Economy that affect lives of peoples, their livelihood and living
environment.
 Ensure that financing from International Financial Institutions such as the World Bank, IMF and the
regional banks (ADB, AfDB et al) is excluded from the financing of sustainable development, nor the
private sector financing.
 Ensure that organizations like World Trade Organization and the kind are not involved in the
development of sustainable development of the countries.

Solidaritas Perempuan’s Post Rio+20 Statement
Demanding The Implementation of Sustainable Development in the context of Economic,
Social, Ecological and Gender Justice
Solidaritas Perempuan/SP (Women’s Solidarity of Human Rights) is a feminist organization established
in 1990 based in Jakarta, Indonesia. SP is an individual based membership organization, with 777 members
spread all over Indonesia, and 11 different communities/branches located in Aceh, Palembang, Yogyakarta,
Jabotabek, Bojonegoro, Sumbawa, Mataram, Makassar, Palu, Poso and Kendari. SP works on the
promotion of women’s rights in the context of women migration, conflict over natural resources, food
sovereignty and religion politicization.
Context
The Rio Declaration has celebrating its’ 20 th Anniversary and countries has renewing their commitments
for Sustainable Development. but the world right now doesn’t reflect its’ success in achieving sustainable
development goals. The existing development model continuously ignores the pillar of economic, social
and ecological justice. Hence, it strengthened the exploitation of natural resources and people, including
women; and on the other hand strengthened the impoverishment and injustices to environment, social
lives and women.
The Rio Summit, therefore, has to reaffirm to fully committed to the implementation of the principles
of Rio Declaration of 1992, to foster consistent implementation based on principles of ecological, social,
economy and gender justice.
The Future We Want: Economic, Social, Ecological and Gender Justice based Sustainable Development
The new concept and model of the economy should be able to answer the current problem of
disparities, inequities and injustices that had systematically impoverished women and men in the last
century. Sustainable development will only bring the quality of life’s improvement for people – women and
men – whilst nurturing the environment and natural resources, if, the principles of economic, social,
ecological, and gender justice are integrated.
1.
2.
Those principles are elaborated as follows:
Principles of Economic Justice
 Acknowledge Women’s vital role in the sustainable development in order to exercise Women’s
equal right to work, including legal capacity with the same opportunities to exercise that capacity,
and the entitlement to equal access to education, skills, healthcare, social security, fundamental
rights at work, social and legal protections, including occupational safety and health, and
opportunities.
 Acknowledge Women’s equal rights in respect of the ownership, acquisition, management,
administration, enjoyment and disposition of property, in particularly on land and natural
resources.
Principles of Ecological Justice
 Acknowledgment that natural resources are not trade or conservation commodities but an
integrated aspect of human’s lives, particularly for women in development countries that mostly
living in rural areas.
 Acknowledgement of the holistic approach in seeing the relation of human kind and environment;
and their vital role in the management of natural resources.
 Acknowledge the local wisdom – including local and indigenous women’s wisdom that should be
integrated into the development of economy model.
4
Solidaritas Perempuan

The utilization of natural resources have to take into account the sustaining relation between human
kind and environment; and impacts of the utilization to lives of women and men.
3.
Principles of Social Justice
 Acknowledge and ensure the integration of principles of economic, ecological and gender justice;
democracy; accountability; transparency; welfare of peoples; respect and protect human rights –
including women’s human rights and rights of indigenous people.
 Promotes equity, sovereignty of the people, non-violence, mutual respect among people and
nations regardless of gender, race, ethnicity, culture, capabilities and class.
 Any utilization of natural resources has to go through process of Free, Prior and Informed Consent
(FPIC) particularly from peoples – women and men – whose lives directly depending from the
natural resources.
 Rights to development
4.
Principles of Gender Justice
 Acknowledge that problems faced by women are not merely about disparity and inequality, but are
also triggered by discrimination and race, caste, beliefs, religions, culturally based-violence, and
other forms of violence. Therefore, objectives and measures need to be set up to eradicate any
form of gender injustices manifest in discrimination, double burden, stereotype, violence, subordination and marginalization against women.
 Acknowledge that a woman is not an exclusive entity, but is a part of community; and play a major
role of social fabric and cultural continuation. Genuine sustainable development should protect
women’s human rights and particularly develop measures to involve women in any decisionmaking in any development in their places.

Technology development for improvement of environment and fostering sustainable
development should be people’s driven and accessible to people, including women.
1.
Reaffirming the Political Commitments to the Sustainable Development
We call the governments to:
 Reaffirm the Rio Declaration on Environment and Development and all its principles – in particular the
principle of common but differentiated responsibilities, equity, polluters pays principle,
precautionary principle, access to information and participation, Inter-generational principles, full
participation of women due to their vital role in the sustainable development, and
acknowledgement of indigenous people rights – will continue to guide the international community
in the achievement of sustainable development and the future we want and will serve as the basis
cooperation, coherence, implementation of agreed commitments, including in this outcome” (para.
15)
 Reaffirm the commitment to fully implement the Rio Declaration on Environment and
Development, Agenda 21, the Programme for the Further Implementation of Agenda 21; including
the international agreed declaration promoting women’s rights such as Beijing Declaration and
Platform for Action. (para 16)
 Reiterate the deleted para 22 on the notion of concern that: “despite efforts by Governments and
other stakeholders in all countries, there remain major challenges to sustainable development and
greater efforts are essential to achieve sustainable development, including the need for greater
coherence among social, environmental and economic policies and implementation modalities in
support of sustainable development. Therefore, we resolve to proactively address the remaining
barriers and gaps in the implementation of internationally agreed commitments”
 Opposing the call to strengthen the international cooperation in the area of debt and trade. The
continued need of enabling environment in the area of finance, technology transfer, and
innovation and entrepreneurship, capacity building, transparency and accountability should not be
5
Solidaritas Perempuan
voluntary – particularly for developed countries in accordance with principles of common but
differentiated responsibilities (para 19)
 Opposing the promotion of Public Private Partnership that evidently limiting the access and control
of the people on basic services such water, health, education, food, etc. Government should ensure
that corporations deliver sustainability reporting and take social and ecological responsibilities –
including reparations and rehabilitation to the impacts of their industrial activities to the
ecosystems and affected people. (para 46)
 Opposing the call to emphasize the role of International Financial Institutions in advancing the
sustainable development agenda – due to their un-democratic system and historical records in their
intervention to national deregulations, financing the exploitative and destructive projects which
further impoverished men, women and children in developing countries (para 54)
2.
Green Economy:
We are equally convinced that the economic logic of green economy being pursued in the Rio plus
20 will prolong the situation of impoverishment and marginalization, particularly for women, for the
following reason:
 Green Economy still follows the same patriarchal development paradigm axed on economic
growth, market-based approach and commoditization of natural resources. The agenda of
sustainable development will only be achieved with a change of mindset, and a fundamental
change of social and economy system.
 Green Economy will further legitimized and strengthen the commoditization and privatization of
nature. In this regard, green economy fails to take an holistic approach in seeing the relation of
human kind and environment, and not acknowledging the common ownership of natural
resources.
 Green Economy proposed in the negotiation still heavily relies on scientific technology and data;
without acknowledge, protect and integrate communities’ – including women – local wisdom in
utilizing and preserving natural resources.
 Green Economy will further prolong and re-legitimized the current domination and intervention of
big corporations, international financial institutions (such as WB, IMF, ADB), and trade
organizations (WTO) - which policies and projects have proven bring poverty and destruction of
social and cultural values of local communities.
 Green Economy concept was not consulted through an inclusive process – particularly to women
living in rural and urban poor areas. The zero draft outcome documents fails to regulate measures
related to information disclosure in a manner that is accessible and understandable for the most
vulnerable people and communities. ICT could not be taken as the only tools for information
disclosure and further engagement with relevant stakeholders.
 Green Economy proposed in the text has weak language on rights. The mindset to avoid previous
internationally agreed convention, agreement and declaration on human rights and women rights
– has shown impure intention of several elites to use the negotiation not for respecting, protecting
and fulfilling human and women’s rights, but merely to gain capital benefits.
We call the governments to:
 Reframe the “green economy” as just and sustainable economy in the context of sustainable
development, poverty eradication and gender justice1 which based on viable practices of peoples
and communities that enable gender justice and long-term social well-being outcomes for present
and future generations, especially marginalized groups such as indigenous, ethnic and sexual
minority groups.2

 Ensure the involvement and engagement of people – including women – at all levels of decision
making at local, national, regional and international level to implement sustainable development;
and to ensure accurate and timely information disclosure in a manner that is accessible and in a
language that is understandable by stakeholders – including local women.
 Ensure that military is not allowed to intervene in the implementation of sustainable development
and not allowed to be executor of sustainable development.
 Ensure that financing from Financial Institutions such as the World Bank, IMF and the regional
banks (ADB, AfDB) is excluded from the financing of sustainable development, nor the private
sector financing. Ensure that World Trade Organization and the kind are not involved or take part
of the agenda of sustainable development of the countries; as these institutions have proven
deliver suffering – particularly for women in developing countries.
 Ensure the development of instruments and mechanism to protect rights of people including rights
of indigenous peoples and women’s human rights. These will include accountability mechanism for
any policy, program and project of sustainable development that affect lives of people – including
women -, their livelihood and living environment.
 Reiterate strong language on rights in the negotiation text; Each country should respect and fulfill
internationally agreed goals and internationally agreed human rights and women rights standards,
creating mechanisms according to national circumstances, objectives and priorities as well as their
policy space with regards to the three dimensions of sustainable development.
 Respect the right to development of women and peoples especially in countries of the South and
promote just and sustainable economy that ensures gender justice and women’s empowerment,
strengthen fair international cooperation, empower all individuals including women and youth and
advance the well being of all, especially the most marginalized and vulnerable in society.
 Ensuring that the economy model use in sustainable development are not within the market based
mechanism and/or in accordance with the public-private partnership scheme.
3.
Institutional Framework for Sustainable Development:
 Recognize that an improved and more effective institutional framework for sustainable
development at the international level should be consistent with Rio Principles, in particular
common but differentiated responsibilities, access to information and participation and women’s
role and participation in management of natural resources and development. (para 76)
 Undermine and dismantle any role, participation, effectivity of governance structure of IFI and
trade organization in the institutional framework for sustainable development (para 78, 85f, 91)
 Enhance the participation, effective engagement of civil society and other relevant stakeholders –
particularly the most vulnerable and marginalized. Promote transparency and broad public
participation to implement and monitor the implementation of sustainable development (para
76h)
 Defend the multilateral system of United Nation, while acknowledge the importance to strengthen
the voice and full participation of developing countries in the decision making process as long as in
accordance with internationally agreed civil political, economic, social and cultural rights – with the
emphasize to promote and fulfill women human rights.
 Governance of sustainable development should be placed at the highest level of the UN, reporting
directly to the UN General Assembly, with accountability mechanisms that include specific gender
indicators
 The entire sustainable development governance structure should be gender sensitive, inclusive and
responsive based on the CEDAW, the Beijing Platform for Action, Agenda 21 and other
internationally agreed goals , including: collection and use of gender analysis and sexdisaggregated data; improved institutional gender capacity; consultation with networks of gender
7
Solidaritas Perempuan
experts; partnering with women’s organizations; and user-friendly involvement mechanisms that
will enable grassroots women to participate in global, national and local dialogues
 Safeguarding environmental, social conditions for the benefit of present and future generations
through national and international ombudspersons for future generations as independent
institutions with legal powers3 and funds for future generations
4.
a.
Thematic areas and Cross Sectoral Issues
Poverty Eradication:
We start with the notion that:
 Poverty came from a systemic exploitation and degradation of natural resources, and continuingly
ignorance to the integrity of human and women’s rights. Therefore, eradicate poverty needs a
systemic change on the current development paradigm that axed only on economic growth and
market-based approach. A genuine sustainable development should combat the current state of
impoverishment experienced by people – women and men – from developing countries.
 Poverty is not merely about the lack of income, but also about the lack of access to basic human
rights, including women’s human rights. Hence, efforts to eradicate poverty must consider
political, social, economic and cultural implications for people – women and men – living in areas
targeted by development activities. Ignorance of these aspects will trigger more problems,
particularly for women, who are already under patriarchal oppression and experience gender
injustice.
 We are highly doubtful that Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) repeatedly referred in the text
negotiation able to answer the ongoing situation of extreme poverty. In previous experiences,
MDGs becomes one part of the problem – as it’s only address the symptoms of poverty and
underdevelopment, but ignore the deeper causes – such as failings of the current economic
development model, foreign debt, subsidies cut, and privatization of basic services.




b.
We call the government to:
Acknowledge the importance of transition from current development paradigm to a more just and
sustainable economic, social and cultural development. Development should be measured beyond
GDP or any economic indicators, but also be measured from the fulfillment of social and cultural
indicators.
Ensuring the access to basic human rights, and taking adequate measures to ensure the fulfillment
of human and women rights.
Acknowledge the deeper cause of poverty, and take drastic measures to address the situation of
foreign debt, returning basic services to common ownership facilitated by public sector, and
increase basic services subsidies.
Modify or alternate MDGs to address social environmental failings of the current model of
economic development. The new goals need to more emphasize on the promotion, protection and
fulfillment of human and women human rights.
Sustainable Agriculture and Food Security:
We call the government to:
 Promote the concept of food sovereignty; which emphasizes the ownership of, and control over
production, marketing and fair distribution of wealth and management of natural resources by the
local producers
 Reaffirm the right to food and call upon all States to prioritize food sovereignty, land reform and
environmentally and socially sustainable production of food through increased public investment in
local food production, improved access to local food markets for the local food producers with
special attention to women, smallholders, youth and indigenous farmers

Solidaritas Perempuan
 Protect and promote the small-scale fisheries and regulate unsustainable commercial fisheries
which negatively affect the local fishing practices and the marine ecosystem; also protect and
promote the system of fishing in and management of conservation areas by small-scale fishers.
 Not supporting the following targets: (1) By 2020, increase public and private investment in
sustainable agriculture and agri-food chains and ensure that sustainable agriculture and agroforestry systems are fully integrated into relevant national and sectoral strategies; (2) By 2030,
significantly reduce post-harvest losses and the amount of edible food waste throughout the food
cycle.” (from the negotiating text)
 Not supporting the “pilot use of Principles of Responsible Agriculture Investment, which was
drafted by International Organizations to achieve broad-based agreement on responsible
agriculture investment in CFS and the Committee on World Food Security process on Principles for
Responsible Agriculture Investment and ongoing work to field test and operationalize the PRAI and
their implementation by investors, governments, international organizations and civil society.”
(from the negotiating text)
Comment:
There is danger in relying on donor support, specifically ODA, and in openly endorsing the
Principles for Responsible Agricultural Investments (RAI) by the World Bank and others, which has
served as the license for the continuation of the massive, global foreign land acquisitions that are
happening all over.
Refer to FAO’s Voluntary Guidelines on the Responsible Governance of Tenure of Land, Fisheries
and Forests in the Context of National Food Security:
12.4 Responsible investments should do no harm, safeguard against dispossession of legitimate
tenure right holders and environmental damage, and should respect human rights. Such investments
should be made working in partnership with relevant levels of government and local holders of
tenure rights to land, fisheries and forests, respecting their legitimate tenure rights. They should
strive to further contribute to policy objectives, such as poverty eradication; food security and
sustainable use of land, fisheries and forests; support local communities; contribute to rural
development; promote and secure local food production systems; enhance social and economic
sustainable development; create employment; diversify livelihoods; provide benefits to the country
and its people, including the poor and most vulnerable; and comply with national laws and
international core labour standards as well as, when applicable, obligations related to standards of
the International Labour Organization.
 Not supporting “the work of the Committee on Food Security as the international and
intergovernmental platform for supporting country-led processes and strengthening policy
convergence among the different stakeholders on the main food security and nutrition issues, and
the FAO, IFAD, WFP and other relevant multilateral organizations as well as to continue to conduct,
through the regular, intergovernmental, participatory, cross-sectoral and multi-stakeholder
assessments of user knowledge, science and technology as basis for a coordinated and coherent
UN system-wide approach to sustainable food production, food security and nutrition.” (from the
negotiating text)
 Not supporting the “initiatives to improve market efficiencies, including accurate and timely
market information, and welcome the agriculture market information system.” (from the
negotiating text)
 Not supporting States and the World Trade Organization to promote trade policies that would be
capable of promoting further trade in agriculture products, including through eliminating barriers
and policies that distort production and trade in agriculture products, which impede the
achievement of food security and act as particularly the obstacles to trade which have the most
serious impact on the world’s poor.” (from the negotiating text)
9
Solidaritas Perempuan
 Not supporting “rapid implementation of Doha Agriculture Mandate while recognizing the rights of
countries to fully utilize their policy space and flexibilities, consistent with their WTO commitments.”
(from the negotiating text)
c.
Jobs – Missing issues
 Considering that domestic work continues to be unrecognized and remain among the most
marginalized, performed mostly by women, many whom are migrants or member of
disadvantaged communities, and particularly vulnerable to discrimination, abuse, harassment and
violence, while constitute a significant and substantial contribution to the sustainable economic
development.
 We call the governments, of countries in which the work to be performed, countries of origin,
transit and destination, to acknowledge domestic work as work, in the national law and regulation,
for the full enjoyment of worker's rights and decent work for all, in particular for women migrant
domestic workers, by providing effective protections against all form of discrimination, abuse,
harassment, and violence, despite of their legal status (undocumented or documented migrant
workers), in regards of their specific situation and condition by nature that may lead them to
vulnerabilities.
d.
Climate Change:
 Commit fully to implement Rio Declaration on Environment and Development and all its principles – in
particular the principle of common but differentiated responsibilities, equity, polluters pays principle,
precautionary principle, access to information and participation, Inter-generational principles, full
participation of women due to their vital role in the sustainable development, and acknowledgement
of indigenous people rights - including the international agreed declaration promoting women’s
rights such as Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action. In this regards, resolve to proactively
address the remaining barriers and gaps in the implementation of internationally agreed
commitments.
 Opposing on any call that may lead to the private sector and international financial institution
involvement in the climate financing, in particular on the Green Climate Fund.
 Opposing the call to forest management that may lead to the limitation and violation of people’s
right, in particularly women’s, on access and control over land and natural resources, including on
benefiting the forest.
e.
Mining
Considering that mining industries has been substantially resulted in negative impacts through
water, air and land pollution, land conflicts, and the lost of people’s livelihood, not to mentioned the
impact to health, including reproductive health, which lead to impoverishment and increasing gender
injustices. Therefore mining in the sustainable development agenda should not be seen only in the
context of economic value, but also considering the social, cultural and environmental value and
gender justice.
We call the goverment to:
 Ensuring the activities of mining industries will not give damages to the environment (water,
air and land pollution) and/or violate human rights, include land grabbing
 Ensuring the mining activities will not involve any military force.
 Ensuring the mining activities will not increase the gender injustice in the society.

Gender Equality and Women Empowerment:
We call the government to:
•
Ensure that policies and programme of the Sustainable Development is in accordance to the
Principle 20 of the Rio Principles, Agenda 21, CEDAW, Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action
and the Millennium Declaration.
•
Opposing the involvement of International Financial Institution, regional development bank, and
private sector in the women’s empowerment. In the regards, the IFI and multidevelopment bank
has more and more creating debt for developing contries and historically shown that their
projects impoverishing and increasing violation on women’s human rights due to land conflict
and deprivation of livelihoods.
•
Ensuring the integration of gender justice principles (as mentioned above) into the planning,
implementation, monitoring and evaluation of the sustainable development.
•
Acknowledge the needs of gender justice and women’s participation and involvement in all
aspect of sustainable development
•
Ensuring that women have access and control in natural and food resources management as part
of sustainable development

untuk mencegah pelaksanaan REDD+ dari resiko-resiko sosial dan lingkungan yang bisa mencederai semangat
REDD+ sebagai mekanisme yang potensial menyelamatkan lingkungan hidup dan manusia; dan mendorong
terwujudnya perubahan kebijakan sumber daya alam, terutama hutan dan lahan gambut yang merealisasikan
prinsip dan cara kerja tata kelola yang baik, prinsip hak-hak asasi manusia dan semangat demokrasi, maka Kami
melihat adanya ketidaksesuaian konsep PRISAI dengan tujuan tersebut, yaitu sebagai berikut:
 PRISAI belum ditempatkan sebagai perangkat yang menjamin perlindungan hak-hak masyarakat dan hak
perempuan. Seharusnya PRISAI menjadi perangkat untuk memastikan bahwa hak-hak masyarakat
terkena dampak dan keselamatan lingkungan terlindungi dan terpenuhi/terlaksana dalam pelaksanaan
proyek REDD+, sebagai orientasi utama dan PRISAI tidak menjadi perangkat untuk
menjawab/mendorong capaian penurunan emisi sesuai dengan stranas REDD+, atau bahkan mendorong
REDD+. Hal ini dilihat dari, antara lain, adanya prinsip, kriteria dan indikator untuk melengkapi atau
konsisten dengan target pengurangan emisi serta aksi untuk mengurangi pengalihan emisi. Artinya,
masih ada kerancuan antara tujuan PRISAI dengan apa yang diatur di dalam PRISAI.
 PRISAI menjadi prinsip, kriteria dan indikator yang bersifat terbuka. PRISAI tidak memberikan indikator
yang jelas terkait berbagai mekanisme atau SOP yang diminta untuk disusun oleh pelaksana proyek.
Pengaturan mengenai mekanisme atau SOP tersebut diserahkan kepada pelaksana proyek. PRISAI
membuka ruang untuk terjadinya pelemahan terhadap persyaratan pelaksanaan proyek, dengan
membuka perumusan, pelaksanaan, hingga pelaporan untuk diusulkan oleh pelaksana proyek, dengan
membedakan mekanisme pelaksanaannya berdasarkan subyek yang mampu dan kurang mampu dalam
4 kategori, yaitu komunitas di dalam dan sekitar hutan, pemerintah, swasta, LSM. Artinya, PRISAI tidak
menjadi kerangka pengaman minimum dari pelaksanaan REDD+.
 PRISAI tidak menerapkan prinsip inklusif, sensitif, dan responsif gender dalam setiap tahapan proyek
pada perencanaan dan pelaksanaan PRISAI, salah satunya dalam proses PADIATAPA, di mana PRISAI
tidak secara eksplisit memastikan perempuan sebagai pemangku kepentingan utama,
tidak
mempertimbangkan pengalaman perempuan dan bentuk-bentuk ketidakadilan gender di dalam
konstruksi sosial yang berlaku di masyarakat, dan tidak memastikan perlindungan hak perempuan dalam
seluruh aspek PRISAI. Tidak ada penegasan secara eksplisit dalam konsep PRISAI terkait kewajiban
pelaksana proyek REDD+ untuk melakukan gender assesment terkait situasi sosial, ekonomi, politik dan
budaya masyarakat, laki-laki dan perempuan, di dalam atau di sekitar wilayah yang diusulkan menjadi
lokasi proyek.
 PRISAI tidak mengatur sanksi bagi pelaksana proyek REDD+ yang terbukti melakukan pelanggaran hakhak masyarakat, hak perempuan dan hak masyarakat adat, ataupun konsekuensi bagi pelaksana proyek
yang tidak menjalankan PRISAI. Tidak ada pernyataan eksplisit yang menyatakan bahwa apabila PRISAI
tidak dipenuhi, maka proyek tidak dapat dilaksanakan atau mendapat persetujuan.)
 Terdapat beberapa bahasa yang melemahkan ketentuan PRISAI yang seharusnya menjadi prasyarat
minimum (misalnya: kata “dapat” dalam konsep mekanisme pelaksanaan PRISAI untuk proyek *hlm. 7+;
kalimat “adanya upaya-upaya agar...tidak mengurangi hak..” dalam indikator prinsip pertama poin 1.3.6
[hlm. 14]).

B. Komentar Khusus
Secara khusus, pandangan umum terhadap konsep PRISAI tersebut kemudian dijabarkan dalam beberapa
aspek, yaitu sebagai berikut:
 Muatan PRISAI tidak memastikan prinsip keadilan gender dan kaum rentan dalam proses pengambilan
keputusan terkait penetapan wilayah, perencanaan dan persiapan, namun hanya pada tahapan
pelaksanaan proyek saja. (Hlm. 4: Bagian STRANAS REDD+ dan PRISAI huruf e)
 Mekanisme penyelesaian konflik tidak dibangun secara komprehensif. Walaupun dalam Indikator
ditegaskan bahwa sebelum kegiatan REDD+ dilaksanakan dipastikan, terdapat suatu mekanisme
penyelesaian konflik. Namun, mekanisme tersebut hanya berlaku apabila terdapat konflik dan untuk
mengatasi apabila terjadi konflik di masa yang akan datang, tanpa mempertimbangkan konflik-konflik
sebelumnya atau yang sedang berlangsung di masyarakat. Tidak hanya itu, seharusnya Mekanisme
yangdibangun, tidak hanya sebatas pada mekanisme penyelesaian konflik, namun juga mekanisme
pengaduan, penanganan dan penyelesaian masalah. (Hlm. 4: STRANAS REDD+ dan PRISAI, huruf f)

Kriteria atas segala kemungkinan dampak maupun keuntungan yang akan ditimbulkan dari penerapan
REDD+ termasuk jaminan atas penentuan pembagian manfaat yang akan timbul sebagai konsekuensi
REDD+, seharusnya tidak terbatas pada masyarakat yang terlibat secara langsung dalam pelaksanaan
proyek, namun dampak dan manfaat bagi seluruh masyarakat terkena dampak atau berpotensi terkena
dampak, laki-laki dan perempuan. (Hlm. 4: STRANAS REDD+ dan PRISAI, huruf g)
 Tidak ada kriteria jaminan yang memastikan REDD+ tidak bertentangan atau tidak boleh meminggirkan
kearifan lokal masyarakat setempat. Hanya memunculkan kriteria jaminan yang memastikan REDD+
tidak bertentangan dengan upaya penyelamatan keanekaragaman hayati dan standar lingkungan hidup
yang berkelanjutan (Hlm. 4: STRANAS REDD+ dan PRISAI, huruf h)
 PRISAI seharusnya memasukkan indikator yang menjamin, tidak hanya, adanya tindakan pemulihan bila
terjadi pelanggaran atau pengabaian terhadap hak maupun standar lingkungan hidup yang
berkelanjutan, namun juga ganti kerugian materiil dan immateriil bagi masyarakat terkena dampak yang
mengalami kerugian akibat tindakan pelanggaran atau pengabaian hak maupun standar lingkungan
hidup yang berkelanjutan. (Hlm. 4: STRANAS REDD+ dan PRISAI, huruf i)
 PRISAI membedakan pemilahan pelaksana PRISAI berdasarkan subyek mampu dan kurang mampu
dalam 4 kategori, tanpa memberikan kriteria, indikator atau basis penilaian kemampuan atau
ketidakmampuan dari masing-masing pelaksana proyek tersebut. (Hlm. 5: Pelaksana PRISAI)
 Mekanisme komplain seharusnya menjadi ruang bagi komunitas untuk mengadukan permasalahan
terkait pelaksanaan proyek secara keseluruhan dan tidak terbatas hanya pada pelaksanaan PRISAI. (Hlm.
5: Struktur PRISAI)
 Ketidakseriusan dalam melibatkan masyarakat, khususnya perempuan dalam setiap tahapan PRISAI
terlihat dalam konsep PRISAI. Dalam konsep PRISAI disebutkan bahwa dalam melakukan studi
pelaksanaan proyek REDD+ “dapat” melibatkan masyarakat (Hlm. 7: Mekanisme pelaksanaan PRISAI).
Hal ini dapat diinterpretasikan bahwa keterlibatan masyarakat, laki-laki dan perempuan, bukan
merupakan sebuah kewajiban bagi pelaksana proyek REDD+. Oleh karena itu, seharusnya dalam konsep
PRISAI harus dipastikan bagaimana keterlibatan masyarakat, khususnya perempuan, merupakan hal
yang prinsip dan mutlak dilakukan oleh pemerintah maupun pelaksana proyek REDD+
 Hasil Pemantauan Komite Pengaman hanya disampaikan kepada pelaksana REDD+ sebagai masukan
untuk perbaikan, namun tidak berfungsi sebagai dasar untuk merekomendasikan pembatalan proyek,
jika hasilnya menunjukkan terjadi pelanggaran hak masyarakat dan/atau bahaya kerusakan lingkungan
(Hlm. 10: Pemantauan Pelaksanaan PRISAI).
 Laporan Pelaksanaan PRISAI hanya menjadi rujukan bagi pemerintah dalam menilai sejauh mana
perubahan telah terjadi dan dikembangkan lebih lanjut untuk kepentingan pengembangan data sistem
informasi safeguard (Hlm. 10). Hasil pelaksanaan PRISAI tidak menjadi basis penilaian untuk suatu
proyek dapat dilaksanakan atau tidak, namun hanya menjadi basis rekomendasi dalam memutuskan
pembayaran ke pelaksana REDD+ (hanya berorientasi pada nilai ekonomi) (Hlm. 11).

C. REKOMENDASI
Rekomendasi terhadap konsep PRISAI secara keseluruhan, dengan mengacu pada komentar umum
dan komentar khusus kami, adalah sebagai berikut:
1. Mengembalikan fungsi PRISAI pada tujuan utama untuk menjamin dan memastikan penghormatan,
perlindungan dan pemenuhan hak-hak masyarakat terkena dampak, laki-laki dan perempuan, serta
menyelamatkan lingkungan dari segala potensi resiko yang membahayakan keberlanjutan ekosistem
lingkungan hidup dari pelaksanaan proyek REDD+.
2. Mengembalikan fungsi PRISAI sebagai kerangka pengaman minimum, dengan tidak membuka ruang
pelemahan terhadap persyaratan-persyaratan yang harus dipenuhi, baik oleh pelaksana proyek
maupun pemerintah, sebelum suatu proyek disetujui atau diimplementasikan.
3. Mengintegrasikan prinsip inklusif, sensitif dan responsif gender ke dalam persyaratan pengamanan
sosial dan lingkungan di setiap tahapan proyek, dengan indikator yang jelas sebagai persyaratan
minimum dan memperhatikan situasi sosial, ekonomi, politik dan budaya perempuan setempat di
masing-masing wilayah yang diusulkan sebagai wilayah proyek.
4. PRISAI harus bisa memastikan keterlibatan penuh, masyarakat terkena dampak, laki-laki dan
perempuan, termasuk pada proses konsultasi dan partisipasi ataupun proses persetujuan atau
penolakan proyek, dengan berdasarkan informasi yang jelas, lengkap, menyeluruh yang dipahami,
antara lain dengan menggunakan bahasa, media dan kemasan yang dapat dipahami, oleh masyarakat
terkena dampak, laki-laki dan perempuan.

Solidaritas Perempuan/SP (Women’s Solidarity of Human Rights) is a feminist organization established
in 1990 based in Jakarta, Indonesia, which consistently fighting for gender justice and defending women’s
rights of the grassroots women on the issues of conflict over natural resources and climate change, food
sovereignty, migration and trafficking, and pluralism and religion politicization. SP is an individual based
membership organization, with 720 members spread all over Indonesia in 10 communities/branches in
Aceh, Palembang (South Sumatera), Yogyakarta, Jabotabek, Sumbawa and Mataram (West Nusa
Tenggara), Makassar (South Sulawesi), Palu and Poso (Central Sulawesi) and Kendari (South East
Sulawesi).
Climate change has prolonged the burden of the people in the south due to the global injustices and
impoverishment of the people caused by expropriation of livelihood and violation of human rights. The
exploitation of natural resources and industrialization by the developed countries for centuries has resulted
to the historically unequal economic structures and forces between developed countries and the
developing countries. Those situations is now being perpetuated through the practices and policies at
international, regional, national and local level promoted by the developed countries, international
institution and transnational corporation in favors of the developed countries, even in response to the
climate crisis.
While the needs is to have drastic emissions cut from the developed countries, changing their system
of production and consumption and reducing their industries, the developed countries continue to have
business as usual and encourage the developing countries to contribute more in the effort to respond the
climate crisis. The climate finance to support those efforts comes with all the conditionalities and some in
the form of loan, giving more burdens to the developing countries to take step and reduce emission while
they still have to deal with climate change impact and their need to development.
Indonesia as an islands country is becoming one of the most vulnerable countries to the impact of
climate change. Climate change has divergent impact to all region in Indonesia as each region has their own
characteristics. The largest threats of climate change in Indonesia are the increase of sea surface level and
temperature and changes in the intensity and patterns of rainfalls that have and will have impacts of
extended dry season, floods, increased frequency of extreme climate occurrences that affect community
health and sources of living, degrade biodiversity and instability of the economy. 4 Therefore, with all the
vulnerability and risk faced by Indonesia, Indonesia should prioritized more on the effort of adaptation for
the interest and needs of the people of Indonesia. But, in addition to that, Indonesia as the third largest
forest country in the world, invited a number of climate financing to Indonesia for mitigation and being
targeted to be the pilot country for REDD+ which are a market based approach to forests, which some has
been proven as false solution due to the impacts of those projects to community 5. The community people
who already suffer from the impacts of climate change, has to deal and suffer more impacts from the
climate “false solution” projects, such as REDD+.
While the impacts of climate change are not gender neutral, the women within the community suffers
more impacts than men, because of women’s vital role in the natural resources management and the
unequal power relation between men and women in the society which excluded women from access and
control over decision making. Therefore, it is crucial to settle gender policies and safeguard, in order to

target gender equality, women’s empowerment and the protection of women’s rights in the fight to
climate change.
And therefore, our demands are as follow:
1. Gender policies and action plan, as well as gender safeguard with gender inclusive, sensitive and
responsive principles must be applied to target gender equality, women empowerment and the
protection of women’s rights in the fights of climate change
2. Access to information and meaningful participation of women in the decision making from
planning, preparation, implementation, monitoring and evaluation process of any climate policy,
program and project must be guaranteed and fulfilled in all climate policies and action. Information
should be disclosed publicly in a simple
3. Gender disaggregated data and gender differentiated analysis should be applied, as well as Gender
budget should be allocated, in all climate program, project, and initiatives to address the
vulnerabilities of women from climate change impact which has been exacerbated by the gender
injustices that occurs due the unequal power relation between men and women within the society.
4. Women’s access and control over natural resources management and the environment as their
space and source of livelihood must be guaranteed and applied, as well as to encourage and
strengthen initiatives based on local wisdom and traditional knowledge of women, in response to
the climate crisis.
5. In response to climate crisis, new, additional and unconditional finance, capacity building and
technology transfer without intellectual property barrier from developed countries to developing
countries should be applied within a legally binding agreement by prioritizing adaptation for
community people, women and men, as part of their obligation and historical responsibilities.
6. Drastic emission cuts must be done by the developed countries with domestic measures by
changing their system of production and consumption which is suitable with the capacity and
capability of Mother Earth, as well as to stop further expansion of the transnational fossil fuel
industries elsewhere.
7. The global fund for climate change should provide direct, simple and accessible financing for
community people which are vulnerable to the impacts of climate change and should not be
addressed to finance Private Corporation who has record of violation of human rights, women’s
rights, caused environmental degradation, and triggered social and environmental conflict.
8. The global effort to address climate change should be prioritized for the the people of the South in
the fight to climate change instead of targeting the private sector activities for “green”
investment.
9. Stop any false solution, such as market based approaches to forests, harmful energy and mega
project, such as nuclear energy, mega hydro dam, biomass, monoculture agroindustry, mega
infrastructures, carbon offset and carbon trading. No to financialization and commodification of
Nature and nature’s functions.
10. Any initiatives and effort of developing countries in dealing with climate change and climate
change impacts within their countries has to be accounted as part of their contribution in the fight
to climate change.
11. The Government of Indonesia should stop taking commitments and action in favor of the
developed countries and start to take step for the interest and needs of the people of Indonesia,
particularly women and the people of the South, in the International climate negotiations.

Solidaritas Perempuan/SP (Women’s Solidarity of Human Rights) is a feminist organization established
in 1990 based in Jakarta, Indonesia, which consistently fighting for gender justice and defending women’s
rights of the grassroots women on the issues of conflict over natural resources and climate change, food
sovereignty, migration and trafficking, and pluralism and religion politicization. SP is an individual based

Aceh, Palembang (South Sumatera), Yogyakarta, Jabotabek, Sumbawa and Mataram (West Nusa
Tenggara), Makassar (South Sulawesi), Palu and Poso (Central Sulawesi) and Kendari (South East Sulawesi).
Preface
Women in Indonesia, like women in most developing countries are facing social, economic, political and
cultural barriers that limit their access to and control over resources, capacities and decision making. That
barriers that comes from the existing `patriarchal system and cultural that form a gender construction that
domesticate women and placed women in the reproductive and domestic sphere that considered to have
not economic role and therefore are not taken into account. Their gender role that created an unequal
relation between men and women then also excludes women from information and decision making
processes. Their situation, problems, and particular needs and interests are hidden. These situations make
women to be marginalized, more vulnerable to be rights violated, and become victims of gender injustices.
The climate crisis then prolonged the gender injustices faced by women. Although, in general, the
impact of climate change are felt equally by the society - men and women. However, the greatest impact is
certainly felt by women where women are not only thinking about agricultural issues with inconsistent
income, resulting from climate changes. Women also have to think hard to get the economy for family
needs. Climate changes had affected agriculture is the number of women who must leave the village to
look for additional work with uncertain time, if the rainy season come. Some of the women also work as
labor in the oil palm plantation, domestic worker, or migrant worker. Not only in terms of economy. Health
problems became the greatest impact felt by women.
Their gender role as well as their relation and dependency to nature make women more vulnerable to
the effects of climate change. The responsibility to secure water, food, and other family needs, then
unequal access to resources and to decision-making processes, limited mobility places women in rural areas
in a position where they are disproportionately affected by climate change. On the other hand, women are
not only vulnerable to climate change but they are also effective actors or agents of change in relation to
both mitigation and adaptation. Women often have a strong body of knowledge and expertise that can be
used in climate change mitigation, disaster reduction and adaptation strategies. Women continue to
develop initiatives to respond to and prevent climate change situation, individually and collectively. Various
initiatives were made by women in the community in responding to and preventing climate change
situation, ranging from finding new ways to farm, manage and utilize forest products without destroying
their habitat. Furthermore, women’s responsibilities in households and communities, as stewards of natural
and household resources, positions them well to contribute to livelihood strategies adapted. It is thus
important to identify gender-sensitive strategies to respond to the environmental and humanitarian crises
caused by climate change.(52nd session of the Commission on the Status of Women (2008) “Gender
perspectives on climate change” - UN Women Factsheet on Women, Gender Equality and Climate Change,
2009)
Unfortunately, women's initiatives in response to the situation has not been fully recognized by the
government, even there is no allocation of funds specifically for women in response to climate change.
Governments are developing policies and mitigation projects that threaten and restrict women's access to
and control over their natural resources. Government policies and mitigation projects are not ensure the
protection of women's rights in the management of natural resources.
18
Solidaritas Perempuan
Protection of women's rights have not become a principle in policy development and climate projects.
Though the facts have shown that women are vulnerable to climate change situation, but the fact also
indicates that women have had the initiative to respond to the climate change situation. As an effort to
maintain and protect the initiatives, it is necessary to build a mechanism for the protection of women's
rights both in adaptation, mitigation and climate finance to ensure the protection of women's rights.
COP 20 in Lima, Peru has agreed on Lima Work Program on Gender that gives mandates to set genderresponsive climate policies on all focus within climate change and request secretariat of UNFCCC prepare
material for consideration as mention in the para 11-12 of the Lima Work Program on Gender, therefore
Solidaritas Perempuan find it importance to submit our submission related to the principles and
requirement for Gender responsive climate policy, both on mitigation and adaptation, as well as on capacity
building and technology development and transfer.
Gender Responsive Climate Policy should apply and integrate the gender justice perspectives, which
are integrating the gender inclusive, sensitive and responsive principles, defines as follows:
 Inclusiveness defines as a principle that women are represented not only physically but include
their particular needs and interest, and that women’s views, knowledge, and experiences are
included and take into account in all processes, in particularly decision-making process
 Sensitive defines as a principle that predicate the awareness of particular needs and interest of
women based on their social, political, economic and cultural situation of women in the existing
gender construction and in regards of their views, knowledge and experiences.
 Responsive defines as a principle that predicate the need to be responsive to the gender
construction that differentiates social roles and responsibilities amongst women and men in the
community, by taking special measures to ensure that women are the subjects of each and every
process of decision-making and that women’s views, knowledge, and experiences become the
basis of decision-making with the full involvement and participation of women.
Gender Responsive Climate Policy should sets:
12. Gender safeguard for all climate action as requirements for approval, which based on the principles
of inclusiveness, sensitive and responsive regarding information, consultation and participation,
consent, grievance, safety and security in all stages from planning, preparation, implementation,
monitoring and evaluation, in order to protect and guarantee women’s access and control over
natural resources management and the environment as their space and source of livelihood.
13. Gender disaggregated data and gender differentiated analysis (situation, risks and impacts) in and
as basis of all climate actions and initiatives, taking into account the social, political, economic and
cultural situation of women and their particularities
14. Proactive approach and mechanism to ensure meaningful participation and involvement of women
in decision-making, inter alia provide and facilitate a safe space for women to discuss and have
meetings prior to a decision-making process, by ensuring that women have equal understanding of
information; as well as integrate the views, knowledge and experiences of women as
considerations in making decision.
15. An allocation of Gender budget within all climate action and initiatives to address the
vulnerabilities of women from climate change impact which has been exacerbated by the gender
injustices and marginalization of women that occurs due the unequal power relation between men
and women within the society, among others for capacity building, women’s empowerment for
participation and control over public decision making, including to provide a safe space for women.
16. A Priority funding portfolio for local/indigenous community women initiatives to encourage and
strengthen initiatives based on local wisdom and traditional knowledge of women, in response to
the climate crisis, including in climate mitigation action, that can be access directly by women, with
a simplification of requirements, including requirements in regards to administration, and by
providing allocation/grant for capacity building on planning and preparation phase.

Submission to the Green Climate Fund Board
Indonesian CSOs, February 2014
After scrutinizing the documents published by GCF for its sixth Director meeting, we found that principles
and mechanisms offered by the Fund created many loopholes. We identified that those loopholes maybe
subject to the violation of: The “do not harm” principle, maximum transparency, democratic process and
accountability mechanisms to the citizens and the public, equity, inclusiveness and non-discrimination, country
ownership, sovereignty and self-determination as well as consistency with international human rights,
environmental, gender, labor and other principles and standards.
We see the points that must be highlighted which are related to the aforementioned principles are based
on these arguments:
 The involvement of private sector and IFIs (International Finance Institution) in the GCF will harm the
recipients of the Fund in a way that loans will create more debts. The loans that will be disbursed by
the Fund will eventually stipulate prerequisite that have to be met. Those prerequisites from the GCF
documents are tending to cost more in long term than the benefits.
 The stakeholders must be involved in the whole process of GCF mechanism. The democratic process
and accountability mechanism to the citizens and public only can be done when the stakeholders
having maximum transparent access
 GCF-regulation mechanisms must be mandatory for the NDA/focal point, Intermediaries or
Implementing Entities (IEs), and Executing Entities (EEs). The strategic framework that is developed by
project proponent must comply with the existing policy, budget, economic and social condition. Thus,
the strategic framework will bound the state to conduct its crucial role in project implementation and
the use of fund
The details of aforementioned arguments are based on the analysis of GCF’s documents which are further
explained below:
1. Initial Modalities for the operation of the Fund’s Mitigation and Adaptation Windows and the
Private Sector Facility, (GCF/B.06/02);
 Bagian 3.2 para 11 (b) “....The Fund would accredit implementing entities (IEs) and
intermediaries that would be responsible for the GCF/B.06/02 implementation of specific
projects and programmes supported by the Fund(see document GCF/B.06/09). In particular,
the IES andintermediaries would undertakefirst‐level due diligence on behalf of the
Fundoftheproposed project or programme; conclude grantor loan agreements with executing
entities (EEs); disburs funds
to, and, in case of loans, receive debt servicefrom, EEs;
and ensure that the EE adheres to the Fund’ssocialand environmental safeguards, fiduciary
standards and otherrequirements...”.
It is crucial to add a statement ensuring EE is assessing the social, environmental and
gender risk. The statement needs to emphasize that the fund distributed is a grant, instead of
a loan.
 Section 3.2 para 11 (c). There should be an advance explanation with regards to the
Investment Committee, i.e. who are involved, the selection process, the task and authorities.
 Section 3.2 para 11 (d). Proposed line: Preparation and consent for the project/programme
proposed must undergo a series of processes of information disclosure, public consultation,
and approval by local community, women’s group, and civil society.
 Section 3.2 para 11(e) . Proposed addition line. (a) “...with the Fund’s enviromental, social
and gender safeguard..” , (b) Prior to be approved by The Board, GCF must inform public on
the proposed proposal, (c) The IE or intermediary, the NDAor focal pointand the Trustee
wouldbe informedof theprocess and outcome.


Section 3.2 para 11 (h). Added word: Trustee will report to the public regularly with regards
to the fund.
Annex 1. The capital to operate with PSF will be developed based on the inputs and
recommendation from various stakeholders, including CSO, not only Private Sector Advisory
Group.
2.
Policies and Procedures for the initial allocation of fund resources (GCF B.06/05)
 Allocation for fund sources are prioritize for the efforts to adapt and mitigate in vulnerable
countries against the impacts of climate change. allocation for funds should not be prioritize
for the private sector.
 Section II, para 9 (b). Proposed added line: The fund allocation, beside those for public and
private sector, should also enable communities to access through a mechanism developed by
each country.
 Section II, para 14 (d). There needs to be an explanation with regards to individual project,
the way the mechanism of the project is able to be submitted to the GCF Board.
 Section III, para 16. Private sector facility. Line: “..... For the shorter term, the Board may wish
to GCF/B.06/05 approve an initial start‐up allocationtargetof 20 per cent for the PSF...”
should be diminish. 20% of the fund allocation for private sector is irrelevant, taking into
account that private sector are often the parties who play important roles in environmental
damages which contribute to the increase of global warming by releasing large amount of
emissions. No allocation for private sector means reducing the negative of private sector's
practices which contribute to the impacts of climate change. This is also a form of climate
change mitigation effort.
 Section III, para 17. Fund allocation, especially for vulnerable countries, needs to be
increased. Taking into account the increase of these vulnerabilities due to the impacts of
climate change highly needed a rapid resolution.
 Section III, para 21. Addition for article, which stated that the report submitted to the GCF
Secretariat each year should also be publishedto the public.
3.
Country Ownership ( GCF B.06/07) .
 There has not been any paragraph which explain the condition of countries who are facing
problems with regards to the country's mechanism and system. It is crucial to push for the
establishment of a mechanism within the CGF which explains and regulates countries that are
facing problems with governance. I.e. Indonesia havebeen facing problems with law
enforcement, then the GCF should be the party that is able to intervene. Thus it is important
to establish a periodic mechanism review and not merely distributing climate change funds.
 Section V, para 40 (a). It is crucial to add points on the involvement of the stakeholders
(community, women, government), not merely on project/programme monitoring phase.
The stakeholders' involvement should also at be at, but not limited to,planing, implementing,
and evaluation phases.
4.
Readiness and Support (GCF B.01415,16)
This document explains the main function of the secretariat which the second article mentioned
that initial strategic framework is voluntary (Doc 14, para 3.2): “The initial strategic framework is
neither mandatory nor does it have to comprehensive for a country to engage with the fund.”. Initial
strategic framework must consists of climate change, economy, and financial state, NAMAs, etc. The
weakness in Indonesia at the moment that there is no 'umbrella'policy related to climate change.

On the involvement of private entities (GCF B.015)

Paragraph 34: “The Guidance provided by the Board as discussed in Section 3.2 put the concept
of intermediaries in a broader context. Intermediaries therefore can be understood as the
current tool as referring to sub-nationals, national, regional, or international public and private
entities with accredited capacity for intermedation.”

Paragraph 42: “Intermediaries may be public or private sub-national, national, regional or
international entities able to channel grant and concessional loan from the fund.”

Paragraph 34 and 42 stated that intermediaries from accredited public and private sector.
Nonetheless with the private sector involvement, it is highly concerned that there will the
commodities will be commercialized and will likely focus on profit and underrating social and
environmental impacts of the project.

Paragraph 37, it is mentioned that the function of the intermediaries is broader than IE:
“According to this understanding, the scope of the role of intermediaries refer to a broader range
of responsibilities than those of IEs, scheming from their capacities of intermediation, which
might include on or more of the following:”
o grant award mechanism
o on lending and capacity to undertake due diligence
o financial blending
o financial structuring
o including for guarantee insurance mechanism relevant for climate change
o origination of financial structure product for financial engineering
o other to be define as they become relevant and appropriate.”
The intermediaries' function is too broad. Moreover on the last point which stated that
intermediaries also have other function to be define as they become relevant and appropriate. The
last point can easily be a loop hole to broaden the intermediaries' function. Hence, this article should
be deleted.
On the power of intermediaries. Paragraf 40 (“Under this operational understanding funding
proposal relating to programs effectively devolve the decision-making authority over individual
funding decisions for project or activities that are comprise within the approved program to the
accredited entity acting as an intermediaries (sub-national, national, regional or international.”) It is
mentioned that in order for the project/programme could be implemented effectively, the authority
of the decision makers, i.e. Board, is able to distribute the authority on the funding for the projects
approved to intermediaries
6.
Dokumen Financial Terms and Condition of Grants and Concessional Loans

On the grants and loans.
Doc 16, para 8. The following financial instrument will be deployed by the fund in its initial
state of operation: a) grantsb) concessional loans: concessional loans 1 (deeply concessional
loans) , concessional loans 2 (moderately concessional loans)
It is mentioned that the financial instrument which will be used is in forms of loan and grant.
Lon will directly add burden to the developing countries. Climate change funding should not
burden the funded countries, therefore it should not be a load.

On the corruption of grants
Doc 16, para 17 ("Grants provided in the initial phase of the Fund's operations are traditional
grants without repayment obligation, except in the event that disbursements were obtained due
to corruption of fraudulent action.").
It is mentioned that when corruption occur with regards to the grant, then the grant should
be returned. This important point is merely explained in one sentence. There is no further
23
Solidaritas Perempuan
explanation for this point. The point should be elaborated with regards to the mechanism and
control, mainly on the party who should be responsible.

Submission to The Green Climate Fund Board
Indonesia CSO, May 2014
This Submission is expressing the point of views and concerns of Indonesia Civil Society Group regarding
the Green Climate Fund (GCF), in particular on it Board’s decisions to be made in the Seventh Board Meeting in
Songdo on 18-21 May 2014. Our concerns are in regards of the potential violations of the “do not harm”
principle, maximum transparency, democratic process and accountability mechanisms to the citizens and the
public, equity, inclusiveness and non-discrimination, country ownership, sovereignty and self-determination as
well as consistency with international human rights, environmental, gender, labor and other principles and
standards.
Points that must be highlighted which are related to the aforementioned principles are based on these
arguments:
• The involvement of private sector and IFIs (International Finance Institution) in the GCF will harm the
recipients of the Fund in a way that loans will create more debts. The loans that will be disbursed by
the Fund will eventually stipulate prerequisite that have to be met. Those prerequisites from the GCF
documents are tending to cost more in long term than the benefits.
• The stakeholders must be involved in the whole process of GCF mechanism. The democratic process
and accountability mechanism to the citizens and public only can be done when the stakeholders
having maximum transparent access
• GCF-regulation mechanisms must be mandatory for the NDA/focal point, Intermediaries or
Implementing Entities (IEs), and Executing Entities (EEs). The strategic framework that is developed by
project proponent must comply with the existing policy, budget, economic and social condition. Thus,
the strategic framework will bound the state to conduct its crucial role in project implementation and
the use of fund
 The well‐documented fact that climate change impacts women and men differently, to the detriment
of women, and that existing gender injustices are likely to be exacerbated by the impacts of climate
change. Women’s limited access to information and decision making due to the gender construction in
the society can be resulted to the exclusion of women’s experiences and knowledge in the
operationalization of the Funds.
The details of aforementioned arguments are based on the analysis of GCF’s documents which are further
explained below:
1. Guiding Framework and Procedures for Accrediting National, Regional and International Implementing
Entities and Intermediaries, Including the Fund's Fiduciary Principles and Environmental and Social
Safeguards (Board document GCF/B.07/02)
• The Performance Standards (PS) of the International Finance Corporation (IFC) should not serve as
interim basis nor serve as a basis for the development of the Fund’s own ESS, as mentioned in the para
7 on the Scope of the Document, “On ESS, the initial guiding framework for the Fund’s accreditation
process (see Annex II) proposes the adoption, on an interim basis, of the Performance Standards (PS) of
the International Finance Corporation (IFC), which will also serve as a basis for the development of the
Fund’s own ESS.”. The IFC has a long track record of aggressively promoting projects and programs
which resulted on the exacerbate of climate change and harm the environment. An institution which
actively promotes the causes of global warming should not be the base of the Fund’s safeguard. The
highest standards should be applied in regards of safeguards for projects and program finance by the
Funds.
• The gender policy should not limited to gender mainstreaming objective, but also in the context of
setting requirements to be met to protect the rights of women and avoid potential risk and impact of
the project/activities or program’s to the increase of gender injustices. A side of Environmental and
Social Safeguard, a gender safeguard consist of gender inclusive, sensitive and responsive principles
26
Solidaritas Perempuan
•
and standards must be applied to avoid further exacerbated of gender injustices, potential risks and
impacts, and the violation of women’s rights. In particular, requirements in regards of information
disclosure, consultation and meaningful participation, consent, complain mechanism and safety and
security for women which in line with above principles.
In regards to safeguard, the following points should be expressed in the policy document:
o In reviewing the effectiveness of EMMS stakeholders' monitoring and review should also be
included;
o Provides a grievance and conflict resolution mechanism for affected communities;
o Ensure the affected communities and particularly the women with capacities to be involved
in the monitoring and all forms of stakeholder engagements within the overall project cycle;
o Ensuring a free from conflicts, fair, transparent and impartial conflict resolution mechanism.
The mechanism must be gender sensitive and responsive;
o A clear statement should be included which human right instruments will be respected and
accepted by GCF programs and projects, and in what forms; The applying safeguard should
not only based scaled risk-based approach, but should be rights based approach, as
mentioned in the poin 5.1 para 37.
o The notion of gender justice and women's empowerment has to be included;
o The labor and working condition should come up with its own sectoral labor standards, rather
than complying to other instruments, but could be adapted from these instruments;
o Programs and projects must also comply with indigenous law within the area of the project;
o There should not be any involuntary resettlement triggered by GCF financed programs and
projects;
o the assurance that programs and projects be implemented in a way that meets the
applicable international standards for maximizing energy efficiency and
minimizing
material resource use (including water), the production of wastes, and the release of
pollutants, has to be an assurance that the programs and projects will not use local
community's water resources;
o With regards to food security/sovereignty, programs and projects should not threat the
community's food security, i.e. project should not be established by converting community's
food production lands;
o Ensure that there is no involuntary resettlement and no land conversion caused or triggered
by the programs or projects.
2.
Initial Proposal Approval Process, Including the Criteria for Programme and Project Funding (Board
document GCF/B.07/03)
 It is expected that GCF fund is not in form of loans;
 Ensure involvement of stakeholders particularly affected communities, the women in the whole stages
of program or project cycle;
 Decision made has to be based on consultation and based on environmental, social and gender
impacts and risks assessment with communities including the women on the program or project sites;
 Criteria to fund specific activities should not limited to only economic criteria, but to include
environment, social and gender aspects;
 Proposals submitted to GCF have to be published in timely manner and public can give comments for a
deliberation by the Board to approve or reject the proposals;
 Ensure monitoring by CSOs and provide a track-record and blacklisting mechanism for parties with
social and environmental conflicts history.
3.
Initial Result Management Framework (Board document GCF/B.07/04)
 The details associated with the reporting options, best practices and guidance should not be limitedly
made available on the Fund’s website, as mentioned in the document para 4, “The details associated
27
Solidaritas Perempuan

with the reporting options, best practices and guidance would be made available on the Fund website”,
but should also be made accessible to wider public, in particular the affected communities, both men
and women. There is a limitation for people to have internet access, in particularly the affected
women.
The Mitigation project/program level outcome should not limit the access and control of the affected
communities, both men and women, on the natural resources management, should not lead to
violation of human rights and environmental degradation, but actually strengthening the access and
control of the affected communities, both men and women, in natural resources management and
increase the quality of life of those affected communities. The benefit of the project and program
should not be limited in the economic aspect.
4.
Investment Framework (Board document GCF/B.07/06)
 Verification process to private to access GCF particularly in regard to its track-record. Relevant CSOs
can be obtained advice on this;
 Black-listing companies that have caused and/or trigger environmental and social problems;
 Ensure that programs and projects supported are free of social and environmental conflicts and
problems. For example, bio-fuel project from the production of CPO often causes social and
environmental conflicts between companies and communities.
 There is no clarity of space/mechanism for the involvement of civil society or other relevant
stakeholder, in particular affected communities, both in formulating strategy investment as well as in
their views and recommendations to the Investment Committee for consideration of the agreement
will be submitted to the Board.
 The criteria for program and project funded in the investment guideline should also consider the
gender justice aspect, in particular in the sustainable development sub criteria, not only consider
social, economy, and environmental aspect.
 In the investment framework should be stated clearly projects or activities that can not be funded by
the GCF. In particular:
o Projects or activities which commonly will lead to human rights violations and environmental
degradation and/or trigger social or land conflict in the project areas, such as agro-industry,
monoculture, mega infrastructure project, nuclear, underground mining and other large scale
industries.
o Projects or activities developed and/or implemented by project developer and/or implementer
which has history of had been or had been alleged committed or involved in human rights
violations, women human rights violations, and/or environmental destructions.
o Projects or activities which not applying gender safeguard or does not provide protection for
women from and/or potentially reinforce gender injustices.
5.
Initial Modalities for the operation of the Fund’s Mitigation and Adaptation Windows and the Private
Sector Facility (Board document GCF/B.07/08):
 It is important to add and ensure that the Executing Entity (EE) also carries out environment, social
and gender impacts and risks assessment;
 Ensure that allocated modalities is in form of grants and not loans;
 Clear information about who are in the Investment Committee, its member selection, its job
description;
 Project proposal, approval and preparation should undergo the process of information disclosure,
public consultation and consent from local and indigenous communities including their women, and in
knowledge of civil societies;
 GCF Secretariat has to make public proposals submitted to the Board before its approval; moreover,
implementing entities (EI), intermediary, NDA or focal point and the Trustee should be informed
about process and outcomes;
28



The trustee has to report publicly regularly about the finance;
Funds for investment and operation of PSF have to be based on recommendations from stakeholders,
including CSOs, not only from the PSAG

Rekomendasi Masyarakat Sipil Indonesia kepada Dewan Dana Iklim Hijau
Untuk Akses Lokal Langsung ke Dana Iklim Hijau
Oktober 2014
Kelompok masyarakat sipil kmenyerukan akses langsung lokal ke pendanaan GCF, di mana lokal yang
dimaksud di sini adalah komunitas, organisasi masyarakat sipil maupun perusahaan yang beroperasi pada
tingkat lokal yang secara langsung mengalami dampak perubahan iklim. Seruan ini didasari realitas bahwa
meskipun entitas-entitas lokal telah mengembangkan berbagai inisiatif sesuai kebutuhan lokal untuk
menghadapi dampak perubahan iklim, namun peran aktor-aktor lokal tersebut dalam pengambilan keputusan
berkaitan dengan perubahan iklim, sangatlah terbatas. Selain itu dana-dana iklim sering tidak menggapai aktoraktor lokal tersebut.
Sebuah lokakarya pada pada tanggal 29-30 September di Jakarta yang dihadiri oleh sejumlah CSOs,
intermediaries maupun anggota masyarakat yang memiliki pengalaman dalam mengakses dana untuk
mengembangkan inisiatif-inisiatif lokal membahas kepentingan akses langsung ke dana-dana GCF. Lokakarya
tersebut menghasilkan rekomendasi untuk mekanisme pendanaan yang dapat meningkatkan peluang
masyarakat dan entitas lokal untuk memperoleh akses yang lebih besar ke pendanaan GCF. Rekomendasi ini
disusun berdasarkan pengalaman-pengalaman terbaik dari berbagai entitas lokal dan nasional yang relevan
dengan mekanisme pendanaan.
Rekomendasi terdiri dari (1) prinsip-prinsip yang perlu dianut dalam pengelolaan dana GCF di Indonesia;
(2) pendekatan yang perlu dilakukan; (3) kondisi untuk pengelolaan; (4) peran yang diharapkan dari GCF dan
NDA Indonesia, dan pihak terkait lainnya, antara lain Kemenkeu, Bappenas, Kemendagri.
Berkaitan dengan (1) prinsip-prinsip yang perlu dianut:
 Transparan, inklusif dan akuntabel dalam arti bahwa (i) proses-proses yang dilakukan dalam
pengambilan keputusan untuk tindakan-tindakan yang berkaitan dengan alokasi, penyaluran,
pengelolaan, monitoring dan evaluasi harus terbuka kepada publik melalui berbagai cara antara lain
tetapi tidak terbatas pada keterbukaan informasi lewat situs NDA; (ii) pro-aktif dalam melibatkan
organisasi-organisasi masyarakat sipil, lokal dan adat, perempuan dan anak, dan kelompok marjinal di
daerah terutama di wilayah alokasi dan tindakan GCF dalam proses-proses pengambilan keputusan;
(iii) bertanggung jawab kepada publik mengenai keputusan-keputusan yang sifatnya kebijakan
maupun operasionalisasi dana-dana GCF.
 Masyarakat berpotensi terkena dampak, perempuan dan laki-laki, diakui sebagai pemangku
kepentingan utama dan dilibatkan dalam pengambilan keputusan di wilayah mereka.
 Free, prior and informed consent (FPIC) merupakan prinsip yang harus diaplikasi dalam meminta
persetujuan kepada masyarakat yang di wilayahnya akan dibiayai oleh GCF. Aplikasi prinsip FPIC harus
memenuhi kondisi (i) masyarakat adat/lokal/ kelompok marjinal dilibatkan sejak dini dan di semua
tahapan proyek yang dibiayai GCF; (ii) menyediakan informasi yang berkaitan dengan proyek yang
didanai GCF secara komprehensif, termasuk dampak positif dan negatif proyek, dan dalam bahasa
yang mereka mengerti dan dalam waktu yang cukup untuk masyarakat adat/lokal/kelompok marjinal
mempelajarinya; (iv) konsultasi dan proses pengambilan keputusan tidak dilakukan dalam situasi yang
intimidatif maupun dipenuhi iming-iming (janji-janji); (v) responsif dan inklusif gender, status social,
dan usia dengan menyesuaikan kepada situasi perempuan maupun masyarakat terkena dampak yang
termarjinalisasi; dan (vi) memberikan peluang untuk integrasi semua pandangan masyarakat
adat/lokal terkena dampak maupun pemangku kepentingan lainnya dalam proses pengambilan
keputusan di seluruh tahapan proyek yang dibiayai GCF. Prinsip Inklusif, sensitif dan responsif gender
dengan mempertimbangan situasi perempuan dan kaum muda yang termarjinalisir dan melakukan
30
Solidaritas Perempuan
tindakan-tindakan pro-aktif untuk melibatkan perempuan dan kaum muda dalam semua proses
pengambilan keputusan sehingga pandangan dan kebutuhan mereka menjadi acuan.
Berkaitan dengan (2) pendekatan yang perlu dilakukan:
 Peyediaan informasi secara komprehensif tanpa pemilahan dengan tujuan masyarakat adat/lokal/
masyarakat marjinal mengerti dan dapat mengambil keputusan. Dengan demikian penyediaan
informasi bersifat transformatif yang mampu menjadikan masyarakat yang selama ini merupakan
obyek pengambilan keputusan, menjadi subyek dalam pengambilan keputusan;
 Penyediaan informasi dapat diwujudkan dalam bentuk yang dapat dimiliki dan menjadi pegangan
masyarakat (buku, modul, dll); dan yang bersifat pengumuman melalui media yang dapat diakses
secara luas (website, surat kabar, dll)
 Dalam menerapkan FPIC harus berbasis pada sebuah pengakuan bahwa masyarakat adat/lokal./
marjinal mempunyai hak untuk memberikan persetujuan atau menolak, memastikan terjadinya
dialog/diskusi.
Dengan demikian penyediaan informasi mengenai pembiayaan GCF mampu
membangun kesadaran terhadap persoalan yang dihadapi sehingga dapat mengambil keputusan
berdasarkan pandangan dan kepentingan mereka dalam melihat persoalan-persoalan yang mereka
hadapi;
 Memperhatikan dan memperkuat kearifan lokal dan pengetahuan tradisional komunitas, termasuk
dalam pengembangan teknologi yang mendorong teknologi tradisional berbasis kearifan lokal.
Pendekatan konsultatif dengan komunitas dalam menggali kebutuhan local/wilayah dan peningkatan
komunitas untuk memperkuat kearifan local untuk solusi dalam mengatasi dampak perubahan iklim.
 Bila dirasa perlu, menyediakan pendamping awal bagi masyarakat untuk menguatkan posisi
masyarakat dan mendorong proses di tingkat lokal
 Menghormati struktur dan mekanisme lokal dalam pengambilan keputusan, dengan tetap memastikan
partisipasi penuh perempuan, kaum muda, masyarakat marjinal, dan adat
 Melakukan tindakan-tindakan pro-aktif untuk menggali unsur lokal, membangun kepemimpinan lokal
dan menjaga agar berlangsung kepemimpinan kolektif (distributed leadership), serta memperkuat
basis kelompok dan mendorong kemandirian komunitas;
 Membangun mekanisme partisipatif (penerimaan proposal, seleksi proposal, evaluasi kapasitas
intermediaries)
Berkaitan dengan (3) Kondisi pengelolaan:
 Informasi harus disediakan dalam bahasa yang mudah dipahami, mudah diakses dan dapat
menjangkau komunitas masyarakat berpotensi terkena dampak –baik perempuan maupun laki-laki;
 Memastikan bahwa konsultasi dan keterlibatan pemangku kepentingan, terutama masyarakat
adat/lokal/ marjinal berpotensi terkena dampak, baik perempuan maupun laki-laki, terjadi dalam
setiap tahapan kebijakan, program dan proyek, mulai dari perencanaan, persiapan, pelaksanaan,
monitoring hingga evaluasi;
 Pemilihan perantara (intermediaries) berdasarkan kesepakatan dengan masyarakat target proyek, juga
konsultasi dengan organisasi masyarakat sipil;Perantara (intermediaries) yang bekerja sama dengan
masyarakat adat/lokal haruslah entitas lokal yang memiliki pengalaman bekerja melakukan
pendampingan, peningkatan kapasitas dan penguatan komunitas, dengan fungsi memfasilitasi dan
bukan sebagai pelaksana proyek. Perantara harus memiliki kemampuan untuk menjembatani standar
internasional dengan mekanisme, situasi dan budaya lokal, demikian juga menggali dan
mengembangkan potensi dan kapasitas lokal. Pendamping harus memiliki kapasitas keberlanjutan
(track record criteria).
 Untuk membangun akuntabilitas masyarakat madani, maka sebaiknya perantara mampu
menunjukkan komitmen dan keterwakilan. Komitmen dapat di ukur berdasarkan kinerja terdahulu
(testimonial dari para pihak masyarakat setempat). Keterwakilan dapat di ukut berdasar survey
kepuasan masyarakat di lokasi intervensi (jadi sebaiknya ada data kepuasan sebeum dan sesudah
31
Solidaritas Perempuan
intervensi).
Dengan cara demikian penghargaan dan pengakuan yang layak di berikan kepada
masyarakat setempat sebagai penerima manfaat (beneficiaris)
Berkaitan dengan (4) peran yang diharapkan dari GCF dan NDA Indonesia:
 Memastikan kebijakan GCF menjamin dan melaksanakan prinsip, pendekatan dan kondisi
(persyaratan) tersebut
 Menerapkan gender, social dan environmental safeguards dalam setiap kebijakan, program dan
proyek yang didanai oleh GCF
 Menetapkan prioritas pendanaan yang mampu untuk diakses langsung oleh komunitas masyarakat,
baik yang berpotensi dan sudah terkena dampak, baik masyarakat adat maupun masyarakat lokal,
dengan penetapan alokasi pendanaan yang setara dengan gabungan semua pemangku kepentingan
lainnya (Set priority funding portfolio for local/indigenous community initiatives), dan masyarakat
marjinal
 Memastikan penyederhanaan persyaratan dalam mengakses pendanaan, termasuk persyaratan
administrasi bagi komunitas
 Menyediakan mekanisme penguatan kapasitas untuk masyarakat yang terlibat proyek, sebelum
proyek dimulai
 Menyediakan dana perencanaan dan/atau persiapan bagi komunitas (Planning/preparation grant)
untuk peningkatan kapasitas
 Menyediakan gender budgeting atau dana alokasi khusus bagi perempuan dalam mengatasi
kerentanan perempuan atas dampak perubahan iklim yang berbeda (lebih berdampak bagi
perempuan) dan untuk peningakatan perempuan untuk mengatasi kerentanan perempuan dalam
kehidupan masyarakat, khususnya dalam memperkuat partisipasi dan kontrol perempuan dalam
pengambilan keputusan di masyarakat
 Menyediakan institusi, anggaran dan mekanisme pengaduan bagi masyarakat untuk kebijakan,
program dan proyek yang didanai oleh GCF
Green Climate Fund (GCF) adalah sebuah mekanisme untuk menyalurkan dana dari negara industri ke
negara berkembang dengan tujuan untuk membantu negara berkembang melakukan adaptasi dan mitigasi
untuk menghadapi dampak perubahan iklim. Karenanya, penting bahwa dana GCF benar-benar dialokasikan
dan dapat diakses secara langsung oleh negara berkembang dan dimanfaatkan untuk kepentingan masyarakat
yang langsung terkena dampak dari perubahan iklim dengan menganut prinsip-prinsip tersebut di atas,
melakukan pendapatan yang transformatif dengan memenuhi kondisi (prasyarat) yang kami jabarkan.

Pandangan terhadap Usulan Forest Investment Program (FIP) Indonesia
Aksi, Solidaritas Perempuan, ‘Ulu Foundation
17 September 2012
Pandangan ini ditujukan terhadap usulan Forest Investment Program (FIP) Indonesia, draft
dokumen tertanggal 2 Maret 2012 (versi Inggris dan Bahasa Indonesia) dan sebuah revisi Bab 6 (versi
Inggris) tertanggal 9 September 2012.
Meskipun draft dokumen usulan FIP Indonesia dalam bahasa Inggris telah tersedia bagi publik
dalam situs Departemen Kehutanan pada tanggal 2 Maret 2012 dan versi Bahasa Indonesia tersedia
beberapa minggu setelahnya sesuai desakan CSOs Indonesia, namun draft revisi Bab 6 yang
disirkulasi tanggal 9 September 2012 belum tersedia versi Bahasa Indonesia dan belum tersedia di
situs Departemen Kehutanan. Bab 6 merupakan bagian penting dalam draft dokumen usulan FIP
Indonesia karena di situlah letak usulan rencananya, sementara bagian-bagian lain merupakan latar
belakang dan lain-lainnya. Sudah seharusnya Bab 6 tersebut diterjemahkan secepatnya ke Bahasa
Indonesia dan dipublikasikan.
Mempelajari usulan FIP Indonesia berdasarkan dokumen-dokumen tersebut, kami melihat bahwa
ada 6 persoalan besar yang terkandung dalam usulan FIP Indonesia tersebut , yang justru akan
mengakibatkan FIP Indonesia menjadi kontra-produktif terhadap usaha-usaha menghadapi
deforestasi dan degradasi hutan di Indonesia secara khusus maupun persoalan perubahan iklim
secara umum, serta meningkatkan persoalan-persoalan akut yang selalu mendamping masalah di
sektor kehutanan Indonesia, yaitu korupsi, kekerasan terhadap warga dan pelanggaran Hak Azasi
Manusia dan Hak Azasi Perempuan.
Enam (6) point keprihatian kami terhadap dokumen usulan FIP Indonesia yaitu sebagai berikut:
1. Tidak cukup strategis untuk menangani persoalan deforestasi dan degradasi hutan
2. Menyediakan „jalur bebas hambatan untuk penetrasi sektor swasta terutama penyebab utama
deforestasi dan degradasi hutan
3. Tidak berdasarkan pendekatan hak-hak masyarakat
4. Tidak dibangun sesuai dengan ketentuan safeguards MDBs
5. Tidak memenuhi persyaratan konsiderasi gender MDBs
6. Terdapat ketidakakuratan penerjemahan dokumen FIP
Penjelasan butir-butir di atas adalah sebagai berikut:
1. Usulan FIP Indonesia tidak cukup strategis untuk menangani persoalan deforestasi dan
degradasi hutan
1.1. Mengacu pada Stranas REDD+ yang masih bermasalah:
Usulan FIP Indonesia dibuat berdasarkan dokumen Stranas REDD+ yang masih mempunyai
permasalahan tersendiri karena tidak cukup akurat dalam mengadopsi hasil-hasil konsultasi public di
7 regional. Dokumen Stranas REDD+ memberikan gambaran situasi kehutanan yang berbeda jauh,
bahkan cenderung menyederhanakan masalah deforestasi dan degradasi hutan yang sebenarnya
terjadi di berbagai tempat di Indonesia.
Beberapa dari kami terlibat dan memantau proses penysusunan Stranas REDD di 7 region dan
menemukan bahwa dokumen Stranas telah mereduksi sejumlah “drivers factors” deforestasi dan
degradasi hutan, dari apa yang sudah disepakati didalam konsultasi publik di tujuh region selang
September-Oktober 2010. Beberapa contoh:
34
Solidaritas Perempuan






Didalam dokumen Stranas REDD+ 23 September 2010, yang digunakan dan disepakati
bahkan disempurnakan oleh peserta konsultasi public di tujuh region, menyebutkan bahwa
penyebab utama terjadinya deforestasi dan degradasi adalah: (1) tata ruang yang lemah, (2)
unit manajemen yang tidak efektif, (3) tata kelola pemerintahan yang lemah, (4) dasar dan
penegakan hukum yang lemah (mencakup: dasar hukum yang lemah, hukum yang memberi
peluang eksploitasi, benturan/ ketidakharmonisan, ketidaklengkapan, penegakan yang tidak jelas dan
tegas), serta (5) aspek tenurial yang tidak jelas/mengambang.
Dokumen ini memang tidak mencantumkan dengan lebih rinci aspek ketidakadilan
gender. Oleh karena itu proses konsultasi di tujuh region menyepakati perlunya
pencantuman aspek pemetaan ketidakadilan gender dan elaborasi aspek tenurial dan
perlindungan hak-hak masyarakat adat atas tanah dan sumberdaya kehutanan.
Didalam dokumen Stranas 16 November 2010 yang sudah diubah di Bappenas, masih
mencantumkan 5 aspek di atas walaupun dengan elaborasi yang sudah berbeda, walau masih
mencantumkan empat penyebab dasar yaitu: (1) perencanaan Tata Ruang tidak efektif dan
tenurial yang lemah, (2) manajemen hutan yang kurang efektif, (3) kelemahan tata kelola
(governance) di sektor kehutanan, dan (4) dasar Hukum yang belum lengkap dan jelas serta
penegakan hukum yang lemah.
Namun demikian, didalam dokumen 26 Agustus 2011 yang diterbitkan oleh Satgas REDD+
yang dikoordinasikan oleh Kuntoro Mangkusubroto, pengelompokan masalah
disederhanakan menjadi tigas aspek yaitu (1) perencanaan Tata Ruang yang tidak efektif dan
tenurial yang lemah, (2) manajemen hutan yang kurang efektif, dan (3) tata kelola
(governance) dan penegakan hukum yang lemah.
Pada dokumen Stranas 16 November 2010 dan dokumen Stranas 26 Agustus 2011, aspek
keadilan gender maupun aspek tenurial tetap saja tidak dicantumkan sesuai apa yang sudah
disepakati didalam konsultasi publik di tujuh region. Bahkan aspek “penguatan dasar/sistem
hukum dan penegakan hukum”, sudah diformulasikan dengan sangat umum dan
menghilangkan rumusan lengkap mengenai aspek: (1) dasar hukum yang lemah, (2) hukum yang
memberi peluang eksploitasi, (3) hukum yang diwarnai benturan/ ketidakharmonisan, dan (4)
penegakan hukum secara adil dan tegas.
Masalahnya kemudian adalah, dokumen FIP (para 17) justru membuat pelemahan lebih lanjut
terhadap dokumen Stranas 26 Agustus 2011 versi Satgas REDD+ yang memang sudah lemah.
Selain tidak mencantumkan dengan jelas aspek keadilan gender dan aspek tenurial dan
perlindungan atas hak-hak masyarakat adat, sebagaimana dokumen Stranas, dokumen
terakhir FIP malah mereduksi hal penting menyangkut penyebab degradasi dan deforestasi,
yaitu “dasar hukum dan penegakan hokum”. Didalam dokumen FIP direduksi menjadi
“Tata Kelola Pemerintahan dan Penegakan Hukum yang Lemah”. Substansinyapun
disederhanakan menjadi “kurangnya koordinasi antar lembaga yang mengeluarkan ijin penggunaan
lahan telah berkontribusi terhadap tumpang-tindih tuntutan dan konflik penggunaan lahan hutan
dengan masyarakat setempat yang telah dikeluarkan dari proses perijinan/lisensi. Hal ini seringkali
menyebabkan kurangnya iklim yang mendukung untuk bisnis pada sektor hutan”.
Hal ini penting untuk dilihat kembali karena problematika kehutanan sangat diwarnai oleh
sistem yang berbasis pada beberapa ketentuan perundangan yang saling bertabrakan. Bahkan
sistem saat ini malah menyediakan “ruang ruang” korupsi bahkan mata rantai pencucian
uang dalam bisnis kehutanan skala besar. Jika hal-hal menyangkut soal penataan dasar
hukum kebijakan dan penegakan hukum yang berbasis pada hukum yang jelas, adil dan
tepat, tidak dilihat sebagai masalah penyebab deforestasi dan degradasi , maka bukan tidak
mungkin aliran investasi atau utang-utang baru yang berbasis pada dokumen FIP, akan
berjalan seperti pada era Soeharto. Artinya korupsi, pencurian uang dan pelanggaran hak-hak
masyarakat, ketidakadilan gender, dan penghancuran ekosistem kehidupan akan berjalan
sebagaimana yang terjadi pada saat ini.

Solidaritas Perempuan
1.2. Persoalan dalam Pengelolaan Hutan Produksi
Usulan FIP mengabaikan atau luput memetakan beberapa drivers (pemicu/ penyebab) utama
deforestasi dan kerusakan hutan di Indonesia. Karenanya akan cenderung membuka ruang bagi
berlanjutnya sejumlah persoalan penghancuran ekosistem hutan, diantaranya pengeluaran 17 juta ha
hutan alam menjadi areal pemanfaatan lain (APL) sebelum pemerintah menetapkan moratorium
penebangan hutan. Penetapan ini tentu saja makin memperparah kerusakan ekosistem hutan akibat
ekspansi perkebunan kelapa sawit skala besar dan massif, perluasan hutan tanaman industry (HTI)
dan ekspansi industry pulp dan paper, serta illegal logging dan destructive logging.
Kutipan penting dibawah ini justru ditempatkan pada bagian Annex dan bukan menjadi bagian
dari analisis drivers:
“Sembilan dari 33 propinsi di Indonesia, bertanggungjawab terhadap perubahan tata guna
lahan di Indonesia sebesar 85% dan emisi karbon hutan. Hutan Produksi berkontribusi
terhadap porsi terbesar dari emisi ini antara tahun 2000 dan 2005. Hampir dari setengah
hutan tanaman (30 juta hektar) tidak memiliki ijin atau konsensi, yang membuat mereka
menjadi rentan terhadap eksploitasi dan pelanggaran serta konflik akan tata guna lahan dan
tenurial. Kinerja yang buruk terkait isu lingkungan-sosial pada kawasan konsesi hutan
produksi semakin memperparah terjadinya pelanggaran dan pembalakan ilegal, yang
membuat Kementerian Kehutanan membatalkan 163 izin konsesi dan menghentikan izin
operasional pada konsesi lainnya sejak tahun 2002. Disamping itu, proses perencanaan
tata ruang dan tata batas lahan yang kurang melibatkan masyarakat setempat ikut
memberikan andil permasalahan. Terlebih, kemungkinan untuk terjadinya deforestasi dan
degradasi hutan cenderung lebih tinggi jika kawasan hutan produksi berdekatan dengan
hutan konservasi yang berpotensi tinggi” (versi Bahasa Indonesia: Lampiran 1, butir A1.1.2
Permasalahan, hal 83; atau versi Inggris: di Annex 1, Section A1.1.2, p.59).
Melihat pernyataan di atas, sudah seharusnya rencana FIP Indonesia memasukkannya sebagai
bagian dari persoalan mendasar yang ada di hutan produksi tersebut.
1.2. Persoalan Pencucian Uang dan Manipulasi Pajak
Masalah illegal logging dan manajemen kawasan hutan produksi maupun hutan alam juga
memberi sumbangsih bagi berkembangnya manipulasi pajak dan pencucian uang dalam pasar hasil
produksi kehutanan. Menurut Interpol pemerintah Indonesia kehilangan potensi penghasilan pajak
antara satu dan dua millyard dollar AS per tahun dalam bentuk pajak dan iuran (fees) yang tidak
dibayar oleh pengusaha kehutanan. Interpol bahkan memperkirakan bahwa pemerintah Indonesia
mengalami kerugian 125 juta USD 125 juta per-tahun sebagai akibat dari kegiatan 18
conglomeratsyndikat illegal logging. 6 Illegal logging tidak hanya merusak kawasan hutan tetapi juga
merupakan bisnis global yang bermotivasi mencari untung melalui manipulasi pajak dan pencucian
uang. Oleh karena itu FIP seharusnya mencermati keterkaitan antara buruknya sistem/ kebijakan
sektor kehutanan dengan maraknya illegal logging dan upaya menekan praktek pencucian uang
melalui UU 8 th 2010 tentang pencucian uang dan upaya menekan praktek manipulasi pajak melalui
UU perpajakan.
1.3.
Restorasi Ekosistem yang Berpotensi Merusak Ekosistem Hutan
FIP memasukkan soal IUPHHK-Restorasi Ekosistem tetapi tidak membahas dampak RE (ERC)
terhadap masyrakat setempat. Padahal pelajaran dari IUPHHK-RE generasi pertama, yang dikelola
PT REKI di Jambi, menunjukkan bahwa tindakan Kementerian Lingkungan Hidup dan Kementerian
6

illegal logging, 2010, pg.6
36
Solidaritas Perempuan
Kehutanan yang membebaskan perusahaan dari persyratan AMDAL malah telah menimbulkan
konflik dengan masyarakat setempat. Didalam FIP tidak ada persyaratan perlunya audit terhadap
ERC generasi pertama dan dokumentasi tentang konflik tanah, konflik hutan, konflik sosial dan
dokumentasi tentang sejauh mana standard-standard dan safeguards untuk perlindungan masyrakat
dan lingkungan hidup telah diimplementasikan. FIP seharusnya mempersyaratkan bahwa semua
ERC mesti melalui proses AMDAL dan mesti memenuhi syarat perlindungan lingkungan dan
masyarakat sebelum FIP mendukung ERC.
1.4. Korupsi
Usulan FIP Indonesia telah melihat korupsi dinilai sebagai resiko, namun tidak dikembangkan
upaya pencegahan korupsi dalam implementasi FIP. Terutama dalam bentuk penataan terhadap
sistem perizinan dan kelembagaan kehutanan yang membuka peluang terjadinya korupsi maupun
peluang terjadinya manipulasi pajak dan pencucian uang.
Dalam struktur kebijakan perijinan ini, peluang korupsi di sektor kehutanan tetap besar.
Masalanya adalah, detil berkaitan dengan sebab dan peluang korupsi di sektor kehutanan seperti
ini tidak ditemukan dalam dokumen draft FIP. Padahal selama ini korupsi merupakan salah faktor
yang selalu membuka ruang bagi ekonomi biaya tinggi maupun berbagai bentuk pelanggaran
hukum bahkan pelanggaran HAM oleh pelaku bisnis kehutanan.
1.5. Situasi Masalah Tenurial
Sebagaimana terdapat dalam Angka 7 butir 1 draft FIP, tampak bahwa FIP tidak cukup
mempertimbangkan aspek tenurial dan situasi pertanahan di Indonesia, di mana mayoritas lahan
masyarakat tidak bersertifikat, termasuk tanah komunal masyarakat adat. Rumusan pada paragraf
107, butir 1: “pengakuan yang lebih baik terhadap hak-hak yang sah atas lahan dan penurunan
konflik yang terjadi yang berkaitan dengan perebutan klaim atas lahan dan yang berkaitan dengan
lahan”, justru berpotensi merugikan masyarakat yang selama ini menguasai tanah/lahan secara turun
temurun tanpa alas hak yang berbentuk sertifikat atau bukti kepemilikan tertulis lainnya. Dari aspek
gender, pendekatan formalistik seperti ini justru makin meminggirkan akses dan control perempuan
terhadap tanah/lahan yang selama ini ditentukan berdasarkan garis patriarki.
1.5. Kekerasan terhadap warga dan Intervensi Militer
Tidak memasukkan faktor kekerasan terhadap warga sehingga tidak diantisipasi sebagai resiko dan
tidak ada upaya pencegahan. Padahal sejarah sektor kehutanan sangat diawarnai oleh konflik dan
kekerasan, terutama yang melibatkan sector bisnis, dan selalu merugikan masyarakat di sekitar hutan.
Konflik-konflik ini juga sering melibatkan kehadiran militer atau aparat kepolisian dengan
pengerahan operasi bersenjata.
Dalam konteks situasi seperti itu FIP justru mengabaikan adanya Perjanjian Kerjasama antara
Panglima TNI dan MenLH No. 9 Tahun 2010 dan KERMA No. 2/VI/2010 tertanggal 3 Juni 2010 dan
Perjanjian Kerjasama Menhut dan Panglima TNI No. 6 Tahun 2011 dan KERMA No. 7/III/2011,
tertanggal 24 Maret 2011. Perjanjian ini merupakan upaya yang dimulai secara diam-diam oleh
Menteri Negara Lingkungan Hidup dan Menteri Kehutanan untuk melibatkan militer dalam proyekproyek penanaman pohon di berbagai wilayah konservasi atau wilayah REDD yang tersebar di 10
wilayah Komando Daerah Militer (Kodam) di Indonesia. Keterlibatan militer tentu saja tidak hanya
akan memperparah konflik yang terjadi di berbagai kawasan hutan, tetapi juga berpotensi menggusur
warga masyarakat dari sumber-sumber kehidupannya, sebagaimana yang terjadi selama era orde
baru.
37

2. Usulan FIP lebih menyediakan ‘jalur bebas hambatan untuk penetrasi sektor swasta terutama
pelnyebab utama deforestasi dan degradasi hutan
Pilihan kegiatan yang ditawarkan FIP tidak ditujukan untuk menghadapi „drivers‟ deforestasi dan
degradasi hutan, melainkan lebih terfokus pada aspek peningkatan stok karbon dan peluang-peluang
lainnya bagi sektor swasta untuk terlibat dalam carbon trading. Padahal menghadapi „drivers‟
deforestasi dan potensi kelanjutannya harus diprioritaskan. Sektor kertas dan bubur kertas dan sawit
misalnya, memiliki dampak besar terhadap hutan Indonesia, namun FIP tidak menunjukkan
komitmen untuk menghadapi masalah ini.
FIP sama sekali tidak mendasarkan rumusannya pada analisis secara mendetail dan transparen
mengenai rencana expansi sektor-sektor tersebut. Dengan demikian usulan FIP hanya menyediakan
“jalur bebas hambatan” untuk penetrasi sektor swasta. Terutama melalui “financial intermediaries”
yang tidak transparan, oleh pelaku degradasi hutan dan pelanggar HAM, yaitu pemilik IUPHHK-HA
(Izin Usaha pemanfaatan Hasil Hutan Kayu-Hutan Alam), HTI, Perkebunan Sawit, dan potensi
penyalahgunaan SVLK oleh perusahaan.
3. Usulan FIP Tidak berdasarkan pendekatan hak-hak masyarakat
Draft dokumen usulan FIP Indonesia tidak memperlihatkan sebuah pendekatan berbasis hak-hak
masyarakat yang kehidupannya bergantung pada hutan, baik laki-laki maupun perempuan. Tidak
ada jaminan penerapan hak-hak yang telah diratifikasi oleh Pemerintah Indonesia, antara lain
Kovenan Sipil Politik, Ekosob maupun CEDAW.
3.1 Pengabaian Terhadap Hak Atas Rasa Aman
Dalam draft dokumen Usulan FIP, tidak memuat aspek jaminan keamanan dan keselamatan bagi
masyarakat. Hal ini sangat penting termuat dalam usulan FIP, mengingat bahwa banyak persoalan
sosial dan konflik agraria yang terjadi di masyarakat yang kehidupannya bergantung pada sumber
daya hutan.
3.2 Tidak ada Pengakuan dan Perlindungan Terhadap Perempuan.
Walaupun dibeberapa paragraf telah menyebutkan pengarusutamaan gender, namun FIP tidak
menunjukkan adanya pengakuan dan perlindungan terhadap perempuan, bahkan perempuan tidak
disebutkan sebagai salah satu pemangku kepentingan. Penegasan ini tentu saja akan berimplikasi
terhadap munculnya model implementasi yang tidak menyediakan prosedur dan fasilitas bagi
perempuan.
(versi Bahasa Indonesia: Para. 32, Para. 39.2, Para. 51).
3.3. Standar yang Merugikan Usaha Masyarakat
Orientasi arus modal FIP ditujukan untuk mendukung perusahan yang “kecil” dan “sedang”
dengan sokongan International Finance Corporation (IFC), tetapi istilah “kecil” dan “sedang” tidak
didefinisikan dengan jelas didalam dokumen FIP. Hal ini bisa menimbulkan masalah karena kategori
kecil dan sedang mengandung ukuran yang berbeda dengan definisi yang digunakan IFC. IFC
menggunakan kategori “microenterprises”, yaitu usaha yang mempunyai kurang dari 10 orang
anggota dengan aset/”turnover” kurang dari AS$ 100,000 per-tahun. Ada juga kategori usaha yang
disebut “kecil”, mempunyai 10 sampai 50 orang dan aset / masukkan antara AS$ 100,000 hingga AS$
3 juta per tahun. Sedangkan yang disebut “sedang” (medium) mempunyai anggota 50 – 300 orang
dengan aset / masukkan antara AS$ 3 juta dan AS$ 15 juta per-tahun.
Dengan demikian, rumusan FIP sangat berpotensi membatasi akses usaha kecil masyarakat yang
selama ini sudah berjalan. Bahkan ke depan juga sulit dipenuhi oleh perusahan sejenis yang ingin
38
Solidaritas Perempuan
memanfaatkan peluang usaha. Karenanya bukan tidak mungkin hal ini makin membuka ruang bagi
perusahaan-perusahaan besar untuk memanfaatkan proyek-proyek atau investasi dibawah
mekanisme FIP.
3.4 Pengabaian Hak Atas Informasi
Usulan FIP, belum menempatkan masyarakat, laki-laki dan perempuan, terkena dampak yang
tinggal dan hidup disekitar wilayah proyek sebagai subjek proyek. Terlihat bahwa masyarakat, lakilaki dan perempuan, tidak ditempatkan sebagai individu yang penting mendapatkan informasi
terhadap usulan dokumen FIP. Bahkan media yang digunakan tidak memperhatikan situasi
masyarakat, laki-laki dan perempuan. (para 127, hal.45, dok versi Bahasa Indonesia)
Dengan menekankan pada penggunaan pendekatan secara online untuk tinjauan masukan
publik, dapat disimpulkan bahwa proses ini justru makin meminggirkan hak masyarakat yang tidak
memiliki akses terhadap teknologi online.
4. Usulan FIP Tidak dibangun sesuai dengan ketentuan safeguards MDBs
Dokumen FIP menyebutkan bahwa dana persiapan Forest Investment Program telah disetujui
pada 21 Desember 2010 oleh MDB FIP Committe. Berbentuk Bantuan Teknis (Techical Assistance/
TA) dari ADB sebesar USD 225,000 untuk persiapan penyusunan dokumen usulan FIP Indonesia.
Namun demikian, penyusunan dokumen ini tidak sesuai dengan ketentuan-ketentuan ADB dan
MDBs lainnya dalam hal safeguards, keterbukaan informasi/komunikasi publik serta gender dan
pembangunan, dan financial intermediaries. Juga tidak mengaplikasi prinsip „do no harms‟, bahkan
tidak menganalisis potensi resiko dan dampak serta upaya mitigasinya.
5. Usulan FIP tidak memenuhi persyaratan konsiderasi gender MDBs
ADB, Bank Dunia dan IFC sebagai penyedia dana untuk penyusunan dokumen FIP Indonesia,
telah mempunyai Kebijakan prasyarat dan ketentuan mengenai konsiderasi gender, tidak saja pada
„Gender and Development Policy‟ (ADB dan Bank Dunia), melainkan juga pada safeguards (ADB)
dan Performance Standards (IFC). Namun, usulan FIP Indonesia tidak memenuhi prasyarat
konsiderasi gender MDB‟s, karena :






Perempuan tidak diakui sebagai salah satu pemangku kepentingan atau disebutkan secara
eksplisit, (Para. 32, Para. 39.2, Para. 51 dok. Versi Bahasa Indonesia)
Tidak tersedia data dan informasi basis yang terpilah secara gender
Tidak ada kajian mengenai penyebab utama deforestasi dan kerusakan hutan dalam
perspektif gender
Tidak ada kajian dampak dan resiko dalam perspektif gender, dan tidak dikembangkan
upaya pencegahan dan perlindungan perempuan dari dampak dan resiko usulan FIP
Tidak patuh terhadap persyaratan untuk mengembangkan usaha-usaha secara khusus untuk
melibatkan perempuan dalam semua proses konsultasi dan pengambilan keputusan
Tidak dikembangkan rencana aksi gender
6. Terdapat ketidakakuratan penerjemahan dokumen FIP
Dalam dokumen usulan FIP, masih terdapat beberapa ketidakjelasan makna, diantaranya :
a.
Penerjemahan istilah “legitimate rights” menjadi “hak-hak yang sah” (Para. 107 butir 1),
penting untuk diperjelas. Karena memiliki makna yang sangat berbeda dan akan berpotensi
terhadap perampasan lahan masyarakat, bahkan bagi perempuan Indonesia, yang masih
kesulitan mendapatkan hak kepemilikan aset, terutama lahan. Penggunaan penerjemahan
39
Solidaritas Perempuan
“hak-hak yang sah” akan memperkuat peminggiran hak perempuan atas kepemilikan lahan.
Terjemahan ini juga akan menghilangkan hak kepemilikan lahan secara komunal.
b. Penerjemahan “empowerment”
bertentangan.
menjadi “pendayagunaan”. Makna tersebut sangat
Sebagai tambahan, dalam dokumen FIP para. 107 butir 3 terjadi penyempitan makna hubungan
antara perempuan dan hutan. “Meningkatkan mata pencaharian masyarakat lokal melalui
pengembangan peluang pendapatan alternatif yang tidak memberikan tekanan kepada hutan”

Terhadap Dokumen Forest Investment Plan (FIP) Versi 26 September 2012
Solidaritas Perempuan, AKSI – action for gender, social dan ecological Justice,
dan ‘Ulu Foundation
10 Oktober 2012
Tanggapan ini merupakan tanggapan kritis terhadap substansi maupun proses yang dilakukan
oleh tim FIP untuk merumuskan dokumen. Kami melihat bahwa dokumen yang dipublikasikan pada 26
September 2012 tidak mengakomodir dan mencerminkan pandangan yang telah disampaikan
masyarakat sipil baik secara tertulis ataupun melalui presentasi dalam pertemuan 14 September
2012 bersama DKN. Tanggapan ini terdiri dari dua bagian, yaitu komentar yang bersifat umum dan
komentar khusus.
1. Komentar Umum





Dokumen FIP 26 September 2012 pada prinsipnya tidak memberikan gambaran mengenai arah
dan bentuk penyelesaian konflik tenurial dan ketidakadilan gender yang selama ini terjadi di
berbagai kawasan hutan. Penanganan masalah konflik seperti ini justru diarahkan pada
penyelesaian ekonomi atas kemanfaatan hutan, sebagaimana halnya kalangan industri
menyederhanakan fungsi hutan dari sudut pandang ekonomi. Tidak ada pertimbangan bahwa
hutan bagi masyarakat adat atau masyarakat di kawasan hutan memliki fungsi yang tidak hanya
bersifat ekonomi tetapi juga fungsi kultural, sosiologis, bahkan fungsi magis, disamping fungsi
ekologis. Jika konsep ini dipertahankan, maka lambat tapi pasti ekspansi bisnis sektor industri
kehutanan didalam proyek REDD+ menyingkirkan masyarakat dari kawasan hutan melalui
mekanisme yang bersifat ekonomi. Sama halnya dengan aspek keadilan gender, masih
dipandang sebagai pelibatan perempuan saja dan belum mempertimbangkan berbagai bentuk
atau lapisan ketidakadilan gender dalam pengelolaan kehutanan selama ini. Jika demikian, maka
proyek investasi ini hanya akan berujung pada pengerahan jumlah perempuan yang terlibat
didalam pertemuan atau proyek dan bukan menjawab ketidakadilan gender yang dialami oleh
perempuan maupun laki-laki dalam pengelolaan hutan.
Proses Penyusunan dokumen FIP tidak menerapkan prinsip meaningful consultation dan tidak
inklusif. Proses penyusunan FIP ini didanai oleh ADB. Oeh karena itu, ada kewajiban bahwa
Aturan Pelindung (Safeguards) ADB harus ditaati, termasuk syahrat bahwa semua kegiatan yang
dilakukan ADB harus taat pada Safeguards ADB, termasuk syarat untuk “meaningful consulation”.
7
Proses konsultasi publik yang dilakukan tim FIP secara online, jelas makin meminggirkan
masyarakat Indonesia yang tidak memiliki atau terbatas aksesnya terhadap internet, khususnya
masyarakat terkena dampak (mayarakat lokal, mesyarakat adat, khususnya perempuan terkena
dampak). Hal ini mempertegas bahwa FIP sama sekali tidak melihat masyarakat terkena dampak,
laki-laki dan perempuan, atau berpotensi terkena dampak sebagai pemangku kepentingan utama.
Pertemuan-pertemuan yang dilakukan dalam membahas dokumen FIP, tidak dapat dikatakan
sebagai proses konsultasi, karena tidak sesuai dengan prinsip meaningful consultation, baik
aspek keterwakilan pemangku kepentingan maupun proses (Hal.112-115).
Dokument versi 26 September sulit untuk dikomentari secara “meaningful” dalam waktu sesingkat ini (dari 26 September s/d 10 Oktober). Tim FIP gagal memberi kepada publik versi
“TrackChanges” sebagai upaya untuk mempermudah masyarakat umum untuk melihat secara
cepat dan tepat perubahan dokumen FIP versi 2 Maret dan 10 Oktober. Kami melihat, jika hal ini
tidak dilakukan, maka “meaningful consultation” sulit terjadi.
Perempuan tidak dilihat sebagai pemangku kepentingan utama, karena perempuan tidak
ditempatkan dalam setiap posisi pemangku kepentingan pada penyusunan FIP (hal 114,20)
7 ADB Safeguard Policy Statement, 2009. Pg 15, para 48. “This safeguard policy statement applies to all ADB-financed
and/or ADB-administered sovereign and non-sovereign projects, and their components regardless of the source of financing
including investment projects funded by a loan; and/or a grant; and/or other means such as equity and/or guarantees (hereafter
broadly referred to as projects).


Walaupun FIP banyak menyebut-nyebut masyarakat yang potensial terkena dampak, namun
dalam proses pembahasan FIP, tidak menggunakan pendekatan yang secara jelas dan terencana
meyakinkan bahwa kelompok masyarakat yang terkena dampak proyek dalam sektor hutan bisa
dengan gampang memberi masukkan. Proses pembahasan misalnya (halaman 112-115), hanya
di wilayah-wilayah yang tidak merepresentasikan masyarakat potensial yang terkena proyek, yaitu
Semarang dan Jakarta, terkecuali Jambi dan Pontianak. Pesertanya pun lebih banyak kalangan
masyarakat sipil, akademisi, pemerintah, swasta. Hal ini tentu saja bertentangan dengan
Safeguard ADB selaku pemberi dana untuk technical Assistance pelaksanaan konsultasi public
yang “berarti” (meaningful consultation).
Substansi maupun proses pembahasan dokumen FIP makin memberikan kesan FIP merupakan
upaya yang menempatkan masyarakat adat atau masyarakat di kawasan hutan, termasuk
perempuan, hanya sebagai obyek. Masyarakat hanya menjadi pihak yang
ditingkatkan
kapasitasnya untuk kepentingan memperbesar kemampuan penyerapan carbon, sekaligus
sebagai pihak yang diberi beban untuk merehabilitasi kawasan hutan yang rusak parah akibat
kebijakan kehutanan yang salah atau perusakan hutan oleh kalangan pengusaha.
Komentar Khusus
Didalam Deskripsi Rencana Investasi (angka 7), butir “Dukungan untuk pengembangan kebijakan
pengamanan (safeguards) nasional”, disebutkan:
“Meskipun proyek-proyek FIP akan menerapkan kebijakan pengamanan dari masingmasing
MDB, kami mengakui bahwa kebijakan pengamanan nasional untuk kegiatankegiatan yang
berkaitan dengan REDD+ sedang dikembangkan sebagai bagian dari upaya kesiapan REDD+
nasional (PRISAI). FIP akan bekerja erat dengan lembaga Pemerintah yang relevan, CSO,
program FCPF (Analisis Lingkungan dan Sosial Strategis), dan inisiatif-inisiatif lain yang dibiayai
oleh donor, untuk mendukung setiap upaya yang dapat memperkuat pengamanan nasional serta
pedoman dan kebijakan praktis untuk pelaksanaan proyek, misalnya FPIC. Hal ini dapat
mencakup ujicoba pendekatan dan instrumen pengamanan di tingkat proyek maupun
dokumentasi dan diseminasi pelajaran dari pelaksanaan proyek”.
Tanggapan: Seperti yang sudah kami usulkan didalam pertemuan dengan DKN, seharusnya
rumusan seperti ini diperkuat dengan formulasi yang memasukkan kalimat yang menyatakan akan
menggunakan safeguard dengan standar tertinggi yang sudah ditentukan didalam ketentuan HAM
yang mengikat secara internasional maupun nasional, termasuk tentunya standar WB dan ADB.
Hal ini penting dicantumkan untuk menjaga agar Safeguard Nasional yang sedang dalam
pengembangan tersebut tidak berkembang menjadi safeguard yang lebih rendah standarnya. Jika
tidak, maka pelaksanaan FIP bisa mengarah pada pelemahan standar perlindungan sosial,
lingkungan dan perempuan.

Berkaitan dengan formulasi mengenai “Kerangka Capaian untuk Rencana Investasi FIP
Indonesia” (angka 8):
(a) Kegiatan-kegiatan yang direncanakan dalam FIP yang difokuskan pada tema pengembangan
kelembagaan untuk pengelolaan hutan dan sumber daya alam secara berkelanjutan dan tema
investasi pada usaha kehutanan dan pengelolaan hutan berbasis masyarakat, tidak
mengidentifikasi atau berdasarkan analisis gender bahkan tidak bertolak dari apa yang
diinginkan masyarakat melalui sebuah proses “meaningful consultation.”
(b) Program yang melibatkan perempuan hanya diarahkan pada pengembangan kapasitas dan
dukungan mata pencaharian. Tidak dikaitkan dengan apa yang dikehendaki perempuan untuk
menjawab kemiskinan dan ketidakadilan yang mereka hadapi. Bahkan pelibatan perempuan
tidak dilakukan pada semua tahapan proses, mulai dari perencanaan, persiapan, penetapan
proyek, beserta tahapan pengambilan keputusan lainnya. Termasuk pelibatan dalam
menentukan FIP kedepan.
42
Solidaritas Perempuan

Mengenai konsultasi dengan Masyarakat Adat dan Masyarakat Lokal (angka 14) disebutkan:
Keterlibatan para pemangku kepentingan akan terus berlanjut selama tahap mendesain
proyek-proyek tertentu, sesuai dengan kebijakan perlindungan dan prosedur yang sudah dianut
oleh masing-masing Bank Pembangunan Multilateral (MDB) untuk persiapan proyek. Para
pemangku kepentingan, termasuk masyarakat adat dan masyarakat lokal akan terlibat selama
fase awal setiap proyek.
(a) Proses seperti ini sesungguhnya merupakan gambaran dari adanya sikap yang meremehkan
dan hanya menjadikan masyarakat adat dan masyarakat di sekitar hutan termasuk
perempuan (masyarakat yang terkena dampak) hanya sebagai obyek investasi dan bukan
sebagai para perencana kegiatan. Padahal mereka seharusnya dilibatkan tidak hanya pada
tahapan implementasi proyek, tetapi juga pada tahapan perencanaan investasi kehutanan
dan/atau penetapan wilayah investasi kehutanan, termasuk pembahasan FIP.
(b) Dokumen FIP tetap tidak menyediakan analisis dengan pemilahan gender, sebagaimana yang
sudah disampaikan dalam pertemuan maupun masukan tertulis. Proses identifikasi dan
analisis tetap hanya diarahkan pada tahapan pengembangan/pelaksanaan proyek/per-proyek
tanpa ada pertimbangan terhadap situasi ketidakadilan gender.
(c) Proses konsultasi publik yang dilakukan FIP secara online jelas makin meminggirkan
masyarakat Indonesia yang tidak memiliki atau terbatas aksesnya terhadap internet,
khususnya masyarakat terkena dampak (mayarakat lokal, mesyarakat adat, khususnya
perempuan terkena dampak). Hal ini mengkonfirmasikan bahwa FIP
tidak melihat
masyarakat terkena dampak atau berpotensi terkena dampak sebagai pemangku kepentingan
utama, bahkan cenderung memanipulasi makna meaningfull consultation


Patut diperhatikan bahwa ketentuan-ketentuan dalam Pernyataan Kebijakan Pengaman ADB
(termasuk konsultasi yang signifikan) berlaku bagi semua proyek/program sovereign dan
nonsovereign yang dibiayai oleh ADB dan/atau komponen-komponennya, termasuk hibah.
Semua MDB termasuk ADB mesti mematuhi kebijakan pengaman masing-masing (termasuk
konsultasi bermakna) selama desain, persiapan dan pelaksanaan proyek-proyek individu setelah
rencana investasi ini disetujui.
Mengenai pencantuman “Komentar dan Tanggapan Pemangku Kepentingan pada Lampiran 6
dokumen FIP, kami perlu menyampaikan respon sebagai berikut:
(a) Lampiran seperti ini menjadi sangat membingungkan dan terkesan menyesatkan. Seolah-olah
komentar pemangku kepentingan diakomodir di dalam dokumen, tetapi pada kenyatannya
lampiran ini hanya berisi upaya tim penyusun FIP untuk berkelit dari keharusan untuk
mengakomodir masukan-masukan pemangku kepentingan dan untuk menundakan
jawabannya kepada tahap implementasi proyek. Kommetar kami memang adalah untuk tahap
perencanaan. Tanggapan Tim FIP tidak menunjukkan upaya sungguh-sungguh untuk
mengakomodir masukan yang bersumber dari masalah yang terjadi di lapangan.
(b) Untuk mempertegas pernyataan ini,kami lampirkan kembali tanggapan/usulan yang pernah
kami sampaikan beberapa waktu lalu ke Tim FIP.
Berdasarkan keprihatinan yang kami sampaikan diatas, maka kami merekomendasikan kepada
Tim FIP untuk :
(a) Menerapkan prinsip meaningful consultation dalam proses penyusunan dokumen FIP, sesuai
dengan Aturan Pelindung dari ADB yang mesti di-implementasikan dengan melibatkan
seluruh pemangku kepentingan, terutama masyarakat terkena dampak, laki-laki dan
perempuan.
(b) Memastikan dan menempatkan perempuan sebagai pemangku kepentingan utama
khususnya dalam setiap proses pengambilan keputusan, dengan menggunakan pendekatan
yang inklusif, sensitif dan responsif gender.
(c) Memuat analisa kajian gender dalam dokumen FIP dan memenuhi persyaratan konsideran
gender sesuai safeguard MDB‟s .

Attachment : Views and Recomendations for FIP document drafts version March and September 2012
Subject
: Civil Society Concerns on Indonesian Forest Investment Plan
To:
FIP Subcommittee
Board of Directors of the World Bank
Board of Directors of the Asian Development Bank
Board of Directors of International Financial Corporation
Dear Sirs/Madams,
We are expressing our deep concerns regarding the draft Indonesian Forest Investment Plan which is now
under consideration by the FIP Subcommittee. From our point of view, the preparation process of this Forest
Investment Plan failed to included meaningful consultation in a participatory manner involving various
stakeholders, in particular representatives of potentially affected communities , which are likely to be impacted
by the implementation of the Forest Investment Plan. Furthermore, substantively, this forest investment plan
does not address the fundamental problems in the forestry sector and does not regard the affected
communities, especially women, as primary stakeholders.
Our concerns on the Indonesia Forest Investment Plan are as follows (for more detail, please see the
enclosed views and recommendations that were sent to FIP Team and Indonesia’s National Forest Council
(DKN) on 17 September 2012 and 10 October 2012, attached):
1. The Preparation Process
 Meetings that were conducted to discuss the draft FIP document cannot be considered
consultations, as they were not based on the principle of meaningful consultation, whether in the
aspects of stakeholder representation or process. FIP Discussion processes were conducted in the
areas that, for the most part do not represent potentially affected communities in the forestry
sector, such as Semarang and Jakarta (pg. 112-115 FIP Document Draft Bahasa Indonesia
Version). The participants have represented primarily civil society, academia, government and
the private sector more than potentially affected communities.
 The “public input” processes carried out by the FIP team, have further marginalized the people of
Indonesia who have no access or limited access to the internet, especially potentially affected
communities (indigenous and local communities, and especiically, women). This has confirmed
that FIP Team has not viewed the potentially afftected communities, men and women, as primary
stakeholders in the process of designing the FIP. The Draft Investment Plan mentions the
potentially affected communities during the implementation stage, but during the planning design
stage, the FIP Team failed to use a clear and well planned approached to ensure that the
potentially affected communities, in particular women, could easily be involved or provide input.
 The preparatory process for FIP document has not applied the ADB’s own safeguard principle of
meaningful consultation and is not inclusive. This preparatory process is funded by the ADB
through the technical assistance fund. Hence, there are obligations to follow the ADB’s Policy,
including the requirement that all activities must abide by ADB’s Safeguards and other ADB
Policies, including the ADB Public Communication Policy 8, which includes requirements for
"meaningful consulation", and the Gender and Development Policy 9, which states that gender
considerations must apply to all ADB activities, including technical assistance operations.
8 ADB Safeguard Policy Statement, 2009. Pg 15, para 48. “This safeguard policy statement applies to all ADBfinanced and/or ADB-administered sovereign and non-sovereign projects, and their components regardless of the source of
financing including investment projects funded by a loan; and/or a grant; and/or other means such as equity and/or guarantees
(hereafter broadly referred to as projects).
9 ADB‟s Gender and Development Policy, Pg. viii-ix, Executive Summary, Gender considerations will be
mainstreamed into all ADB activities, including macroeconomic and sector work, and lending and technical assistance (TA)
operations. Para 85, GAD will be actively promoted in both TA and loan operations. As with ADB‟s economic and sector work,

There are inacuracies and differences in meaning in the FIP document translation from English to
Indonesian, leading to a significant potential for misunderstanding or misinterpretation for the
people of Indonesia. Poor translation has led to a weakening of meanings.
2. Substance
 The Draft FIP refers to the drivers of the deforestation and forest degradation, but does not
thoroughly analyze potential risks, impacts and mitigation efforts. The Draft FIP does not apply
the ‘do no harm’ principle. There is no comprehensive description of the type and form of tenurial
conflicts and gender injustices (and their resolution), which have occured in the various forest
areas. Conflict resolution has been directed towards economic resolution focusing on forest
benefits.
 The Draft FIP fails to be strategic in its approach to the issue of deforestation and forest
degradation, including failing to “follow the money” in terms of deforestation and forest
degradation.The proposed FIP ignores or mis-maps the primary drivers of deforestation and
forest degradation in Indonesia, namely the palm oil sector and pulp/paper industry. The
problem of illegal logging and the mismanagement of production forest as well as the natural
forests also contribute to the blooming of tax avoidance or fraud and money laundering in the
forest products market. According to the INTERPOL 10, it is likely that the Indonesian government
loses potential tax revenue of between one to two billion USD per year, in the form of unpaid
taxes or fees by forest sector conglomerates. Illegal logging not only destroys the forest but is also
a global profit-motivated businesses involving tax manipulation and money laundering.
Therefore, the FIP should examine the link between poor systems and policies in the forest sector
with illegal logging, and support efforts to suppress money laundering and tax manipulation
through Indoneisa’s Money Laundering Act No. 8 Year 2010 and Tax Law and policies.
 The Draft FIP is not community rights-based. Communities in and around the forest are directed
to economic based mechanisms. There is no consideration that the forest has not only an
economic function but also social, cultural, even spiritual and ecological functions for the
indigenous and local communities. The goals of enhancing capacity for communities appear
primarily focussed on increasing the carbon stocks, as well as the burden of rehabilitating the
forest areas that were severely damaged due to private sector activities and poor policies.
 The Draft FIP does not meet gender justice standards. Women are not seen as primary
stakeholders in the designing of FIP. There is no gender-disaggregated information and data
baseline. There are no assesments of the drivers of deforestation and forest degradation in a
gender perspective. There are no gender impact and risk assessments in and no development of
efforts to mitigate and protect women from the impacts and risks of the FIP. There is no
affirmative action to involve women in all processes of consultation and decision making. There is
no gender action plan.
Based on those concerns, we urge the Board of Directors of World Bank, Asian Development Bank and
International Financial Corporation, and the Sub-Committee of the FIP not to approve this flawed Draft FIP
document as well as the implementation of the proposed Indonesian Forest Investment Plan. Any Forest
Investment Plan must first ensure:
1) A public Consultation Process in accordance with the principle of meaningful consultation, involving all
stakeholders, in particular, potentially affected communities, especially women, by emphasizing and
based on the interest of the people of Indonesia, notably communities living in and around the forest
area, with assessment of and consideration of forests not only from an economic aspect.
gender considerations will constitute an essential element of project work. ADB will promote the mainstreaming of gender
considerations in projects, and gender concerns will be addressed at all appropriate stages of the project cycle from
identification through postevaluation.

2) Revision of the substance of existing FIP document based on the recommendations from civil society,
in particularly ensuring the principle and analysis of gender justice contained in the FIP document,
taking note of the “money trail” in the forest sector and focusing to the drivers of the deforestation
and forest degradation, namely palm oil and the pulp and paper industriy.
Thereby are our concerns and demands. We hope that you will carefully consider our concerns and make
the right and fair decision for all the people of Indonesia. Thank you for your attention and cooperation.

Protest of Civil Society to WB-IFC about the FIP Development Process in Indonesia
To:
Ms. Joyita Mukherjee, Senior Operations Officer, IFC [email protected]
Dr. Michael Brady, East Asia Forestry Program Manager at IFC
Dr. Gerhard Dierterle, World Bank, [email protected]
Mr. Werner Kornexl, World Bank, [email protected]
For the past three years, Indonesian CSOs have continued to seek information about and provide input into
the proses and substance of the Forest Investment Plan in Indonesia. Nonetheless, until now, important
questions about many aspects of the FIP process and FIP activities have not yet been answered by FIP
representatives at the World Bank and IFC despite the fact that these questions have been sent in writing directly
to the FIP representatives at the World Bank and IFC.
For example, on 30 October 2013, a number of CSOs sent a letter to the World Bank/IFC with a list of very
specific questions. These written questions were submitted with the hope of receiving a written response from
the Bank and the IFC regarding: 11
 The violation of FIP requirements / safeguards regarding consultation: the FIP Design Document
requires an eight stage consultation process, including for “investment strategies.” Indonesia’s Forest
Investment Plan is an investment strategy and the development of the FIP triggers consultation
requirements. Nonethelesss, the development and process of the drafting of FIP Indonesia
demonstrated a lack of meaningful consultation or fulfillment of the principle of Free, Prior, Informed
Consultation or Consent.
 The violation of FIP requirements / safeguards which forbid FIP support for industrial logging: The
IFC portion of the FIP actually plans a program to support industrial logging in natural forests in an area
of up to 700,000 hectares in West Papua, Sulawesi and East and West Kalimantan;
 Detailed and specific questions were also submitted to the IFC about:
 The process of choosing large scale private sector partners in the forest sector, given that
according to an INTERPOL report, this sector is at a high risk for money laundering, tax
evasion and corruption, not to mention frequent violence and violations of human rights.
 The process of due diligence carried out by the IFC to ensure that the IFC’s large scale private
sector partners are free of money laundering, tax evasion and corruption as well as human
rights violations;




The attitude towards the involvement of the Indonesian National Army (TNI) in FIP projects. The
Ministry of Forestry and the Commander in Chief of TNI have already developed cooperation to
“rehabilitate conservation areas”, specifically in conflict regions. A formal cooperative work agreement
)No. NK.06/Menhut-V/2011 and No. Kerma/7/III/2011 was signed directly by the Minister of Forestry,
Ir. Zulkifli Hasan and the Commander in Chief of TNI, Laksamana Agus Suhartono on 24 March 2011.
There have been documented cases of conflict and human rights violations in the forest sector which
have had the involvement of armed forces.
Explanation about the method for the use of the highest safeguard standards, including the use of
national laws or regulations only “to the extent to which they have standards which are higher than
those of the World Bank.” (FIP Indonesia, para 46.
The use of the “do no harm” standard recommended by the ADB for the FIP.
The provision of information / information dissemination related to draft project documents which,
according to the original schedule, have already been written and should have been made public. The
fact is that, until now, there is still FIP information which has not yet been distributed to the public,
including details about the “meaningful consultation” process or the proposed location of FIP projects.



Clarification as to whether decisions about FIP projects will rest solely in the hands of Bank and IFC
management or whether Executive Directors of the Bank and IFC have the right to examine and vote to
approve or reject Bank and IFC projects under the FIP, given the substantial risks to communities and
their forests.
The development of the implementation, preparation and project evaluation schedule, including the
proposal of WB and IFC projects to management and Board of the Bank and IFC. (A schedule was
made public but was not consistently implemented or updated.)
In response to these questions submitted by CSOs on 30 October 3013, the IFC , on 9 November 2013,
provided a very short answer. Instead of replying to the detailed CSO questions 12 , the IFC only made the
following suggestions:
 Please see the “Updated Matrix” of February 2013, that is, a document which had already been posted
online 8 months before the CSOs sent their list of questions. (The CSOs had already read this document
prior to writing.) The strange thing was that, in the aforementioned matrix, the FIP Team had promised
that “in the upcoming year 2013” they would carry out public consultations, something which did not
happen. The matrix also stated that the FIP Team had “requested that the National Forestry Council
(DKN) facilitate meetings and dialogue with stakeholders” and noted, alarmingly, that DKN “had only
recently approved a definition of “important public consultations” [sic: an apparent mis-translation of
“meaningful consultations”] in September 2012. 13 This means that DKN only agreed on a definition of
consultation in September 2012, after the DKN meetings had been held with “stakeholders” in order to
produce the FIP Indonesia plan, the draft of which was finalized in October 2012 and submitted to the
FIP Committee for approval.
 In reality, there was no process of “meaningful consultation” or fulfillment of the principle of FPIC in
the process of the development of FIP Indonesia which was hosted by DKN. In fact, the Head of the
DKN Presidium stated, “Regardless, FIP as a formal program of the Indonesian government, will be
carried out in accordance with government plans. 14 This statement, not only represents a violation of
FIP safeguards which require an eight part process of consultation, but also of all “meaningful
consultation” and “free, prior, informed consultation” or consent requirements, because the DKN’s
approach means that communities do not have the right to choose whether they agree / consent or do not
consent to the FIP process or FIP projects.
 Please see the document “Information Sharing and Outreach Events for the FIP…” of 28 October
2013, that is, a 4-page document prepared by the WB, IFC and ADB and which consists of list of
activities of the FIP Team between November 2012 and September 2013. This document actually
proves that there has not yet been a meaningful consultation process at all during the development of
the FIP. The activities which are listed in this document include: 13 meetings held by WB, IFC or ADB
with Indonesian government agencies/officials; 8 meetings with donors; 3 meetings with (unnamed)
private sector representatives, 3 meetings with World Bank partner, WWF; two meetings with
(unnamed) Indonesian CSOs and Laos CSOs, including one meeting in Laos and one meeting with
(unnamed) CSOs in West Kalimantan to “inform them about the endorsement of the FIP”, etc.
The document also listed an “informal lunch” with CSOs “which had formerly been critical
towards the FIP”, naming Solidaritas Perempuan (Women’s Solidarity for Human Rights) and Walhi
(Friends of the Earth – Indonesia) as “invitees.” However, the document provided no indication of the
results of the discussion, nor a list of the actual attendees. Neither Walhi or Solidaritas Perempuan
attended this “informal lunch” at all. It is very unclear why a document which purports to provide a
formal chronology of outreach activities would include names of CSOs who did not attend an “informal
lunch.” An informal lunch, of course, cannot be claimed to be a public consultation.

In addition, this document also mentions a “National Dialogue about DGM and FIP” hosted by DKN in
July 2013, but nevertheless, the document does not actually describe what happened at this meeting,
where many questioned the process and substance of the FIP and the DKN’s own “Community
Chamber” [“Kamar Masyrakat”] stated their rejection of the FIP, as an outcome of the National
Dialogue. This was not mentioned in the document provided by IFC, WB, ADB.
The “Information Sharing and Outreach Events” document sent by the WB and IFC in lieu of a direct
reply to CSO questions about consultation actually demonstrates how, until now, in general, they more
often meet with government agencies and bilateral donors, while meeting with potentially affected
communities and CSOs has not been a priority for the FIP Team. On those occasions when they meet
with community representatives or CSOs, those processes are a form of “socialization” of information
from MDBs and the government and certainly cannot be considered a consultation process in
compliance with FIP requirements. (See Annex III for the original document with CSO notes in the
margins.)
Let’s meet to discuss this: Rather than actually provide direct and clear written answers to continually
unanswered CSO questions, the Bank and IFC ask CSOs to meet with them. As if CSOs must (once again)
come to discuss, in the absence of written materials provided by the WB/IFC ,and not the WB/IFC being
required to provide clear and transparent information to CSOs and the Indonesian public.
Learning from the experience of CSOs who have attended FIP “socialization” (not consultation) meetings,
including those hosted by DKN – where written information is not provided in advance to attendees, minutes of
meetings do not record important input from attendees (including that pertaining to concerns regarding the
potential for military activities linked to the FIP) – it is very important to obtain written answers to the questions
which have been submitted by CSOs. It is only in this manner that clear and transparent information can be
provided directly to civil society and all concerned parties including those who are in various regions and islands
distant from Jakarta and who may not be able to attend such a meeting.
As public financial institutions supported by taxpayers in many countries, the Bank and the IFC must
provide a clear explanation about these issues in of importance both to taxpayers and also to communities
potentially impacted by the FIP.
Until now, FIP has often been portrayed as a project which has a goal of reducing forest degradation and
increasing sustainable forest management which reduces emissions and increases carbon stocks. Nonetheless,
the tendency to refuse to answer important questions, especially in an open manner in writing, adds to concerns
that the FIP truly
(a) will continue to violate requirements and safeguards for the protection of communities – women and men and the environment;
(b) will continue to violate the process of meaningful consultation and the requirement to provide early/prior
information in order to receive comments from communities;
(c) will contravene the rights of communities to make their own decisions about their own fate, and;
(d) will have a substantial negative impact on communities and their forests.
Proof of this is that the FIP Team, that is, the World Bank, IFC, ADB with the Indonesian government, have
already agreed to propose plans to take an area of 1.67 million hectares for FIP projects, including up to 700,000
hectares of natural forest, for an IFC industrial logging program. This not only violates the FIP’s own
safeguards, but was done without the agreement of communities or the recognition of their rights, including the
rights of women who are dependent upon forests for the livelihood of their families.
We note that both the IFC and WB have funded activities linked to violence, including the IFC’s violent
Dinant palm oil case in Honduras, and Wilmar in Indonesia, involving substantial human rights abuses by armed
forces associated with the private sector. On April 4, 2014 in a presentation to the IFC Executive Directors, the
IFC admitted that they underestimated the broader risks involving security forces, had limited ability to address
issues of land conflicts and violence and ensured the Board that, in the future, IFC due diligence would include a
focus on the use of security forces in conflict areas. 15 We see no evidence of any assessment of the use of
15
IFC, “IFC’s Environmental & Social Lessons Learned” ,Technical Briefing for the Board of the IFC, April 4, 2014.
52
Solidaritas Perempuan
security forces occurring in Indonesia by either the IFC or the World Bank, something of deep concern to civil
society.
Given these developments, and the tendency to force upon the public, policies which harm communities -women and men -- and the protection of forests, we urge the Bank and the IFC to stop practices / projects which
clearly violate safeguards, including FIP safeguards, and harm communities and their forests, as follows:
1.
2.
3.
4.
Cancel plans for the IFC FIP project which will use up to 700,000 hectares of natural forest for
industrial logging, a direct violation of FIP safeguards.
Carry out a consultation process, in accordance with the FIP requirements (eight steps) and the MDB’s
own safeguards, with communities – women and men – and CSOs as the primary stakeholders in FIP
activities, without coercion or other efforts to prevent communities from freely expressing their consent
or lack thereof.
Provide written answers to the questions in Annex I, including an assessment of the role of security
forces in the forest sector in Indonesia, and in proposed FIP areas;
Describe, in writing, the independent grievance mechanism available to the public to file complaints
regarding the violations of FIP safeguards, including the ban on investments in industrial logging and
the consultation process.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
