Latar belakang dan tujuan: Eksploitasi terhadap sumber daya alam tanpa batas dengan dalih pembangunan, lemahnya posisi tawar masyarakat terhadap pengambilan kebijakan, rusaknya sumber ekonomi berbasis kerakyatan, terpinggirnya masyarakat --terutama kaum perempuan-- dalam pengambilan keputusan, merupakan pokok-pokok pikiran yang melatarbelakangi terbentuknya lembaga ini. Lembaga yang lahir pada 21 Januari 1992 ini bertujuan untuk melestarikan lingkungan hidup, memberdayakan dan menguatkan ekonomi rakyat yang berlandaskan pada konsep pembangunan berkelanjutan, meningkatkan sumber daya manusia serta melestarikan kearifan budaya lokal. |
