ICLSP Hosts National Webinar: Kebakaran Hutan, Salah Siapa?

On Monday, 9 November 2026, ICLSP hosted a national webinar, “Kebakaran Hutan, Salah Siapa?” (Forest Fires, Whose Fault?), via Zoom from 09.00 to 13.00 WIB. The webinar was free and open to the public, with e-certificates and PDF materials for participants.

The webinar unpacked the responsibility of regional governments, the state, corporations, and the international community in the forest and land fire crisis, under the hashtag #FromBlameToAccountability. The speakers were Umi Ma’rufah, S.Ag., M.Si. (WALHI Indonesia); Linda Yanti Sulistiawati, S.H., M.Sc., Ph.D. (APCEL, National University of Singapore); Dr. Zico Junius Fernando, S.H., M.H. (Universitas Bengkulu); and Ali Rido (Universitas Trisakti). The discussion was moderated by Ahmad Sabirin, S.H., M.P.P., Managing Director of ICLSP. The webinar was sponsored by Sinarmas Mining.

The discussion moved the question from “who is to blame?” to “who must act?” Its findings fed ICLSP Policy Brief No. 2, “From Blame to Accountability: What the 2026 Fire Season Requires of the State, Corporations, and the Region.”
