“…Eko feminizm ve benzer yaklaşımlar feminist politik ekoloji altında toplanabilir (Rocheleau, et al, 2013). Yaklaşımın temel argümanı çevre ile olan ilişkilerimizin toplumsal cinsiyete göre temel farklar gösterdiği ve önceki literatürün bu farkları erkek egemen bir yaklaşımla ele aldığı varsayımına dayanır (Hovorka, 2006). Çalışmanın buraya kadar olan kısmında Anglo-Amerikan coğrafyacılarının insan çevre ilişkilerini hangi perspektiflerle incelediği ve bu perspektiflerin zamanla nasıl ve neden değiştiği üzerinde durulmuştur.…”

“…They also felt that sack gardening had given women more confidence because of the challenges they undergo as part of farming. A similar sense of empowerment through urban gardening has been documented among women farmers in South Africa (Slater, 2001) and Botswana (Hovorka, 2006b).…”

“…They show how each impacts the other, and highlight the role of economic, political, and gendered social structures that influence how ecological policy is made and implemented (Ludwig, Mangel & Haddad, 2001;Hovorka, 2006;Merchant, 1980). Climate and environmental changes, as well as the policies developed to mitigate their impact and slow their progression, are processes that occur within social structures, and purely scientific strategies to address ecological issues will be ineffective if they do not consider these broader social and political contexts.…”

This paper analyzes publically available, published documents to conduct a systematic review of the inclusion of gender mainstreaming principles in documents related to one of the largest, most important international forest-preservation projects, Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation (REDD+). Although more than 60 countries have adopted REDD+ initiatives, this document analysis focuses specifically on REDD+ in Indonesia, both because of its early adoption of REDD+ and as one of the most ecologically diverse and environmentally important countries in the world. Of the 383 documents reviewed, only 88 were found to include any mention of gender, and of those, very few included gender mainstreaming principles to a level that could be considered integrated and substantive. The distinct lack of these widely touted but seldom implemented principles should be of concern to international and national policy makers, and taken under serious consideration during the forthcoming Conference of the Parties (COP) 21 meetings in Paris. Moreover, this analysis is the first step to identifying where women's voices may still be silent, and lays the groundwork for more extensive, on the ground research of REDD+ project sites to evaluate the extent to which gender mainstreaming is or is not incorporated into actual project implementation in Indonesia.
