Sustainable development is currently being implemented globally in response to the need for global societies to ensure a balance of development between economic and environmental issues (such as forests) and local communities. Local governments have committed to managing their forests for development in accordance with green economic principles. In addition, the adat community also has a significant role in promoting local wisdom in managing natural resources in Papua. This article attempts to investigate the role of green economic programs on development in the Papuan's local communities. The study found that the political, traditional structural system adopted local wisdom on the patterns of agricultural farming in the Papuan community. The study found that the green economy program is the alternative solution for developing the local community due to the economic benefit to Indigenous people and the lack of damage to Papua's natural resources.
