Indonesia: How the people of Indonesia live with climate change and what communication can do
This report is part of Climate Asia, the worlds largest study of people’s everyday experience of climate change
Abstract
Climate Asia is the worlds largest study of people’s everyday experience of climate change. The project surveyed 33,500 people across 7 Asian countries, including 4985 households in Indonesia. Climate Asia also conducted 16 focus groups with men and women from different social backgrounds across 7 locations in Indonesia; 22 in-depth interviews with key experts and opinion-formers from government, civil society, business and academia; and community assessments with 7 communities vulnerable to changes in climate. The research was conducted from February to October 2012.
This report (available in English and Indonesian) presents the findings from Indonesia. It seeks to build a picture of how people live their lives and deal with change, in order to understand their communication needs and help them respond to changes and variations in climate.
The report concludes by highlighting how the information, insight and tools generated by the Climate Asia project can be used to communicate with other audiences.
