We work alongside Indonesian communities, scientists, and policymakers to build adaptive capacity in the face of a changing climate — from the mountains of West Java to the coastlines of Maluku.
Science. Society. Climate Action.
Founded in 2012 in Bogor, West Java, Climate Society (Yayasan Masyarakat Iklim) emerged from a network of environmental scientists and community organizers who recognized that climate change was not a distant future — it was already reshaping livelihoods across Indonesia's islands, forests, and coastlines.
The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Sixth Assessment Report makes clear: without rapid, deep reductions in greenhouse gas emissions, and without systematic investment in adaptation, millions of people in tropical developing nations will face intensifying food insecurity, displacement, and health crises.
Indonesia — as the world's fourth most populous nation, a tropical archipelago of 17,000 islands, and a country where 40% of the population depends on climate-sensitive agriculture and fisheries — is acutely exposed. Climate Society exists to ensure that the most vulnerable communities are not left to face this crisis alone.
Our interdisciplinary team of 47 staff and over 200 field partners works at the intersection of science, community organizing, and governance reform — bridging the gap between global climate commitments and ground-level action.
