This article aims to explain the challenges of journalism education in Indonesia on the issue of mainstreaming climate change. As the world’s largest archipelago, Indonesia has to deal with some climate change impacts such as rising sea levels, extreme weather, floods, drought, and forest fires. Climate change is a real serious threat, but public awareness of this issue is low in Indonesia. Mass media have a capacity to mainstream climate change and increase public awareness. The data for this article has been collected through qualitative content analysis of newspaper articles, interviews with communication lecturers and scholars, and document reviews. Some of the important findings are: 1) The climate change issue in the Indonesian mass media is less popular than other issues such as corruption, elections, terrorism and refugees; 2) Journalism education in Indonesia does not contribute enough to mainstreaming climate change on mass media; 3) There are three levels of problem in macro, messo, and micro level of journalism education in Indonesia to mainstreaming climate change issue. At a micro level, the problem is related to the lack of lecturers with competence in climate change. On a messo level, journalism education has failed to connect with the problem of climate change through curricula. At a macro level, the problem is related to the popularity of journalism than other subjects in general socio-political environment. Systemic theory by Niklas Luhmann was used as tool to analyse these problems. From this perspective, Indonesian journalism education as a system faces plenty of challenges to reduce the complexity of problems to optimise its role in mainstreaming climate change.

将气候变化问题主流化:印度尼西亚新闻教育面临的挑战

本文旨在解释印度尼西亚新闻教育在气候变化主流化问题上的挑战。作为世界上最大的群岛,印度尼西亚必须应对一些气候变化的影响,如海平面上升、极端天气、洪水、干旱和森林火灾。气候变化是一个真正严重的威胁,但印度尼西亚公众对这个问题的认识很低。大众媒体有能力将气候变化纳入主流并提高公众意识。本文的数据是通过对报纸文章的定性内容分析、对传播讲师和学者的采访以及文件审查收集的。一些重要发现包括: 1) 印尼大众媒体中的气候变化问题不如腐败、选举、恐怖主义和难民等其他问题受欢迎;2) 印度尼西亚的新闻教育对将气候变化纳入大众媒体的主流贡献不足;3) 印度尼西亚新闻教育在宏观、中观和微观三个层面上存在三个层面的问题,以将气候变化问题纳入主流。在微观层面上,问题与缺乏具备气候变化能力的讲师有关。在整体层面上,新闻教育未能通过课程与气候变化问题联系起来。在宏观层面上,问题与新闻学在一般社会政治环境中比其他学科更受欢迎有关。Niklas Luhmann 的系统理论被用作分析这些问题的工具。从这个角度来说,
