Analysis of the existence of ecofeminism in Indonesian civil society in the era of the Covid-19 pandemic (2020–2022).

This research aims to analyze the condition of ecofeminism in Indonesia in 2020–2022 using a content analysis approach and describe the causes that influenced it during the Covid-19 pandemic. With the rise of ecofeminism, women now actively participate in fighting for the environment by helping the environmental movement. The descriptive qualitative method analyzes news from four leading online news media in Indonesia, namely Kompas, Kumparan, Tempo, and Detik, by using NVivo's NCapture to record articles and NVivo 12 plus software for data analysis as well as other literature related to the research problem. This research found a need for ecofeminism research in Indonesia, as seen from literature mapping through Scopus database articles in 2020–2022. The content analysis results regarding the existence of ecofeminism differ among the four online news media. The results found that there are agents of change, climate change, development and sustainability, economics, environmental conservation, environmental crisis, women leaders, gender equality, environmental management, natural balance, the role of women in the environment, and women's empowerment. Another result is that the coverage of ecofeminism in 2020 and 2021 is still minimal. Meanwhile, in 2022, ecofeminism in the news with the scope of gender equality, agents of change, and women's empowerment was most widely reported. This research analysis found that two online news platforms, Tempo and Kompas in 2022, were most dominant in reporting on women and nature or ecofeminism. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
