Gender Equality in Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) has been exclusively developed but, most of our current economies and societies are not able to fully contribute or equally benefit from them. When zooming in, women are generally more excluded than men. Indonesia as the leading of palm oil producing country and given the vital role that women and girls play in the management, care, and use of Palm Oil, the Gender Equality and Social Inclusion (GESI) framework is important to review. This paper aims to review the performance of GESI framework in the Indonesian palm oil sector and links the discussion with SDG 5 (Gender Equality) using qualitative methods, which data and information have been collected through observation, key informant interviews and secondary data. The framework focus on the marginalized groups. The results show that the palm oil industry can improve the gender equality and inclusivity for creating economically, socially, and environmentally sustainable palm oil supply chains and sectors. We need roll out the Gender Assessment to map out the actual roles, inclusivity and involvement of women in the respective area.
