Indonesia is one of the highest fossil fuel consuming country in the world. According to the International Energy Agency, Indonesia\u2019s energy consumption is still dominated by fossil fuel. At the same time, the country boasts plenty of alternative energyresources. The Government of Indonesia has recently declared its intention to increase the use of renewable energy. Through government regulation No 79\/2014, the Indonesian government has intended to enhance the use of renewable energy whilst incrementally decreasing its dependence on fossil fuel.<\/p>\n
This intention needs to be met by increasing public pressure to reduce the use of fossil fuel. Several organisations have shown their attention to this issue but is in need of a bigger support to not only increase people\u2019s awareness, but also address the issue to the relevant stakeholders. A larger movement is therefore needed to articulate the need to move away or decouple from conventional energy production methods. To pinpoint strategic entry points in initiating the movement, a critical study that maps potential actors is needed. Moreover, this study is important to understand the landscape of the movement against climate change, specifically the movement to end fossil fuel, as well as the dynamics and power relations amongst stakeholders in Indonesia. A better understanding of media engagement trend and campaigns to end fossil fuel is also essential. Therefore, this background research is paramount.<\/p>\n
The research will be commissioned by 350.org, a non-profit organization that is committed to building a global climate movement. The research will engage 350\u2019s strategic partners, namely Greenpeace, Walhi – Friends of the Earth Indonesia, Jaringan Tambang (Jatam) and 350 Supporters, as well as other individuals and organizations who work on climate change issues.<\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":4211,"template":"","categories":[314],"tags":[437,360,265],"test_type":[40],"class_list":["post-3890","past_project","type-past_project","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-past-project","tag-daya-cipta-sudrajat","tag-fajri-siregar","tag-ferzya","test_type-information-social-change"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
