This study aims to analyze the improvement of farmers’ welfare in the Community Forest Farmer Group (KTHKm) Sedyo Makmur through the FSC certification program facilitated by Koperasi Wana Manunggal Lestari (KWML) in Gunungkidul Regency. This research employed a descriptive qualitative approach with a case study design. Informants were selected purposively from the management and members of KTHKm Sedyo Makmur, the Manager of KWML, and a field facilitator. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation, and analyzed through data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The study employed the Triple Bottom Line framework, consisting of the economic (profit), social (people), and environmental (planet) dimensions. The findings indicate that the FSC certification program contributes to improving farmers’ welfare through several changes. In the economic dimension, timber selling prices increased by approximately 10 percent, with a premium of around IDR 50,000–100,000 per cubic meter under certain conditions, while market access expanded to international markets. Certification costs were not directly imposed on farmers because they were covered by KWML, although farmers remained responsible for economic obligations such as the Forest Resources Provision (PSDH). In the social dimension, the program strengthened farmer institutions, facilitated participation through regular meetings, improved members’ capacities through training and assistance, and encouraged the implementation of occupational health and safety standards in forest management activities. In the environmental dimension, the program encouraged more systematic forest management through regeneration, replanting, crop diversification, protection of high conservation value areas, and monitoring through FSC audits. However, the benefits of the program have not been evenly experienced by all members because they are influenced by production capacity, harvesting time, land conditions, economic obligations, and individual capacities. Thus, the FSC certification program facilitated by KWML contributes to improving farmers’ welfare while strengthening the economic, social, and environmental sustainability of forest management. The findings indicate that the economic benefits of certification need to be understood alongside community capacity strengthening and the sustainability of forest resources.362 Kesejahteraan Sosial, Permasalahan dan Layanan Sosial2026-08-13UIN SUNAN KALIJAGA YOGYAKARTA;FAKULTAS DAKWAH DAN KOMUNIKASIThesis
