Abstract Customary law (adat law) constitutes a living legal system that
has evolved within Indonesian society and embodies the values of local
wisdom. In the context of environmental protection, customary law plays a
significant role in regulating the sustainable use of natural resources
through customary norms, values, and sanctions observed by indigenous
communities. Although constitutionally recognized, the implementation of
customary law within Indonesia's national legal system continues to
encounter various challenges, including regulatory inconsistencies, limited
legal recognition of indigenous peoples, and the inadequate integration of
local wisdom into environmental governance. This study aims to analyze
the status and legal position of customary law within Indonesia's national
legal system and to examine strategies for strengthening customary law in
supporting environmental protection based on local wisdom. The research
employs a normative legal method using statutory, conceptual, and case
approaches, supported by library research and qualitative legal analysis.
The findings indicate that strengthening customary law requires
regulatory harmonization, stronger legal recognition and protection of
indigenous peoples and their customary territories, institutional
reinforcement of customary governance, and the incorporation of local
wisdom into environmental protection and management policies. These
measures are expected to strengthen Indonesia's national legal system
while promoting sustainable development and ecological justice.
