Gunungkidul District has an area of 485.36 km2, which is a karst area that is included in the Gunung Sewu geopark. The uniqueness of mount karst is mainly in the abundance of carbon stocks in the karst. The karst area’s location has underground river flows, shallow soil solum, and high levels of drought. The objectives were to create actionable strategies for climate change mitigation to reduce the risk of damage to karst areas. The mitigation action strategy aims to reduce the carbon emissions rate from various sources and increase the Karts area’s absorption rate, a community forest area. The methodology uses qualitative research comparing baseline carbon data based on the allometric model. Data collection carried out using the FGD (Focus Group Discussion) method. The results showed that community forests’ average carbon stock was still below the lowest standard of carbon stock’s feasibility in the woods. This situation does not guarantee optimal carbon storage sustainability due to the phenomenon of land-use change and need-cutting. Therefore, the mitigation action strategy needed is to encourage local policies at both the village and district levels in climate change mitigation efforts. This policy will form the basis for mainstreaming climate change mitigation as part of the government’s widely supported work.
