Indonesia: People Power for Global Justice and International Solidarity

By 2026, an early majority of policy-makers in Indonesia is starting to recognize the importance for fulfilling their obligations to respect, promote, and realize rights for people most affected by a global unjust system (cfr. our domains of change). An early majority of the broad public and civil society acts for systemic alternatives and democratization. They invest in strengthening their structures and policy work. In Indonesia, 11.11.11 works with organizations and networks that advocate for alternatives for the current unjust system development from a rights perspective. They are committed to fight for democratic-, ecological-, and socio-economic justice. 11.11.11 and partners believe that the current policies, are unable to guarantee economic, social, and cultural rights (ESCR), nor stop the overexploitation of natural resources and the destruction of the environment and biodiversity. Therefore, we have to rethink our current system and develop alternatives, which take into account people’s rights and the planetary boundaries. Our context and actor analyses show that a shift is needed in the way policy-makers are ruling the country and how the private sector acts. We believe that this move has to come from changing the behavior of the broad public and the civil society. 11.11.11 collaborates with national organizations and networks in the field of democratization and human rights, gender justice and ecological justice. These partner organizations are joining forces with rights-holders so that they are better able to defend their rights and undertake joint actions to influence policy. Giving a stronger voice to people in a vulnerable situation is key. The partners also invest in the protection of rights activists and their organizations, as they come under increasing pressure. The partners are part of international platforms through which they promote international exchange and global actions. The collaboration offers partners and 11.11.11 the possibility to strengthen their ties with rights-holders, to develop new or deepen existing collaborations (broader campaigns and coalitions), and to obtain recognition from political actors and the public opinion for the actions they undertake. Key partners are: Walhi, Jatam, Sawit Watch, KontraS and Solidaritas Perempuan
