Abstract

The purpose of this study is to examine environmental legislation in relation to the preservation of indigenous peoples’ rights in the context of natural resource management in Indonesia. In the context of expanding natural resource development and exploitation in Indonesia, indigenous populations frequently face threats to their rights in sustainable natural resource management. This study examines the existing legal framework in Indonesia, including key legislation and policies protecting the environment and indigenous groups, using a normative legal research technique and policy analysis. The primary goal is to determine the extent to which present environmental laws safeguard indigenous peoples’ rights in the context of natural resource management. The research also includes assessing how environmental legislation is used in reality, with a focus on specific examples where indigenous peoples’ rights are jeopardized or infringed in natural resource management. This research will provide an understanding of the gaps and obstacles in preserving indigenous peoples’ rights. The findings of this study are intended to contribute to a better understanding of the effectiveness of environmental legislation in protecting indigenous peoples’ rights in natural resource management in Indonesia. Furthermore, this research provides policy suggestions and legal procedures that are more inclusive and just, with the goal of improving the protection of indigenous peoples’ rights and promoting sustainable natural resource management. Subsequently this study adds to a better understanding of the function and importance of environmental legislation in preserving indigenous peoples’ rights in the context of natural resource management in Indonesia. It is believed that this study would stimulate policy changes and legal procedures that are more sensitive to and supportive of indigenous groups’ concerns, as well as contribute to Indonesia’s environmental sustainability.
