Abstract

The International Environmental Non-Governmental Organisation (IENGO) has become increasingly influential since the Rio Jeneiro conference in 1992. This paper seeks to investigate the pattern of NGO diplomacy in three countries, namely China, Brazil and Indonesia. Transnational advocacy networks apply boomerang pattern strategies to pressure governments by carrying out information politics, symbolic politics, political leverage and accountability politics. This strategy is also implemented by environmental NGO networks, for example, to drive a soy moratorium in Brazil aimed at mitigating the deforestation of the Amazonian rainforest. In one of the cases in Indonesia, the barriers to cooperation between the government and NGOs, as well as differences in the values and information held between the respective global and local perspectives involved in conservation management, resulted in unjust conservation policies.
