Social mapping and community engagement are foundational requirements for industrial operations in Indonesia — where concession areas frequently overlap with customary land rights, traditional resource dependencies, and communities whose livelihoods are affected by industrial activities. KLHK's PROPER system evaluates community development programs as a key assessment criterion. International frameworks including FSC, IFC Performance Standard 1, and EUDR due diligence requirements mandate Free Prior Informed Consent (FPIC) processes and ongoing community engagement.
Analyze potential social impacts of operations on identified communities. Assess significance of impacts against community vulnerability and dependency. Develop impact mitigation hierarchy and community benefit enhancement opportunities.
Design FPIC process for communities with customary rights in the operational area. Develop community engagement framework including consultation schedule, participation mechanisms, and grievance procedures.
Develop community development program based on social baseline priorities. Implement program activities with community participation. Monitor program outcomes and report on social performance for PROPER, AMDAL, and ESG disclosure.
