Project Details

Project Description

Eastern Indonesia is a priority area for climate change intervention for the Indonesian and Australian governments due to the risks of extreme climate-related natural disasters (DFAT, 2020; Katalis, 2022).

The Climate Resilience Fellowship program funds six Indonesian fellows from Eastern Indonesia. The project builds on our Australian and Indonesian government funded KONEKSI project. Proposed activities and outputs play a crucial role in addressing climate change resilience through an interdisciplinary and inter-sectional approach with Gender Equality, Disability and Social Inclusion focus.

The project provides capacity building opportunities for the fellows and their host institution and networking and collaboration opportunities, including with the Climate Change Communication Research Hub at Monash University in Australia. The project includes community engagement opportunities where the fellows are able to learn best practices in relation to climate change resilience from indigenous communities in Australia. Learnings from this project will be used to inform an advocacy plan and educational material for public awareness campaigns in Indonesia and Australia.
