Feybe Lumuru
Senior Project Manager
Feybe is a Senior Social and Human Rights Specialist within Daemeter’s Social, Smallholder and Livelihoods unit. She brings more than 15 years of experience in social impact assessment, FPIC, human rights due diligence, and conflict resolution in Indonesia’s palm oil sector, work that increasingly connects to investor-grade due diligence, jurisdictional governance, and the standards-shaping work that defines what social performance means in practice.
She has served as lead assessor or lead verifier in social impact assessments and thematic social research for more than 80 plantation companies and mills, and is one of the most experienced HRIA practitioners working in Indonesian palm oil. She is an experienced trainer and facilitator on FPIC, SIA, conflict resolution, and corporate social responsibility, and has played a central role in developing Indonesia’s national interpretation for RSPO Principles and Criteria across multiple revision cycles. She continues to sit on several RSPO working groups and task forces, including for HCV management guidance and independent smallholder standards. Her conflict resolution depth makes her a distinctive resource for multi-stakeholder governance work at landscape scale.
Feybe is driven by the challenge of making sustainability standards work in practice, particularly where the rights and livelihoods of communities are at stake. Before joining Daemeter, she spent a decade leading a civil society organisation focused on social issues in the palm oil industry, designing and implementing programmes that bridged the gap between industry standards and on-the-ground realities.
She holds a Doctorate in Sociology from Gadjah Mada University. She is fluent in Bahasa Indonesia and English. Feybe loves discovering new places and is a loyal follower of three teams in particular: Arsenal in the Premier League, the LA Lakers in the NBA, and the Seattle Storm in the WNBA.
