Informal Social Protection Towards Future-Proof Society: Adaptive Social Protection Against Climate Change

This policy paper discusses the role of informal social protection in building adaptive capacity to climate change, particularly in Indonesia. It highlights how informal networks—such as kinship systems, religious communities, and local traditions—function as frontline mechanisms for resilience in the absence of formal infrastructure. The paper advocates for the integration of these community-based practices into formal adaptive social protection strategies to create a more inclusive, culturally grounded, and climate-resilient society.
