AB - This study aims to elucidate how women peasants are reconfiguring their community through alternative agriculture to practice gender equality and ecological citizenship through civil society rural development cooperation in Asia in the era of the climate crisis, especially the empowerment project of women peasants in Indonesia. In sustainable development, gender and environmental issues have been addressed as important goals and strategies for cross-cutting issues, and ecological citizenship has been discussed as a new ecological ethic and practice in response to the problem of global climate change. However, there is a lack of discussion on how to realize gender equality and sustainable ecological citizenship in response to climate change in international development cooperation. Therefore, this study revealed, from the perspective of gender equality and ecological citizenship, how returning migrant women become peasants through a civil society rural development cooperation project that supports alternative agriculture training and business for returning migrant women, focusing on the Cianjur district, which has a high proportion of transmigrant women in West Java, Indonesia. It conducted a feminist case study in Cianjur on a rural development project implemented from 2015 to 2019 with support from Japanese civil society. Research findings show that women peasants in Cianjur are transforming their relationship with ecology through alternative agricultural practices and strengthening their ecological, economic, social, and political capacities through multi ayered activities. They are also pushing for local change in land reform, addressing deforestation and water scarcity, infrastructure support, and the representation of women peasants in the public sphere. Ultimately, in order to alter the norms, customs, and systems of international development cooperation in response to climate change and ecological crises, tangible steps must be taken to expand women’s engagement and representation at the local, national, and transnational levels.
