Extensive climate modeling research has been conducted internationally, particularly on energy transition. However, despite the abundance of research in this field, few modeling efforts explicitly incorporate vulnerable groups, such as women and people with disabilities, particularly in Indonesia. This study is a pioneering effort to identify the challenges and impacts of the energy transition on vulnerable groups in Indonesia, while highlighting opportunities for fiscal responses to achieve distributional objectives. We believe that the meaningful representation and participation of vulnerable groups is crucial to ensuring more inclusive climate policies.
This study was conducted by the Institute for Economic and Social Research (LPEM FEB UI) in partnership with the Australian National University (ANU), the SMERU Research Institute, and the Institute of Essential Services Reform (IESR), with funding support from the Australia Government through KONEKSI (Knowledge Platform Australia – Indonesia).
