Professor Nicholas Kuipers writes an article titled "Climate politics: Understanding political inaction on climate change" for VoxDev.

"Indonesia faces major environmental challenges. Slash-and-burn agriculture sparks wildfires, and rapid industrialisation pollutes the air and the water (Balboni et al. 2025). Climate change will exacerbate extreme heat and heavy rain, and sea level rise will threaten coastal populations (Hsiao 2025). At the same time, policy action remains limited on these fronts. In Hsiao and Kuipers (2025), we study the multiple causes of policy inaction in Indonesia."
