Background
“UNDP partners with people at all levels of society to help build nations that can withstand crisis, and drive and sustain the kind of growth that improves the quality of life for everyone. On the ground in 177 countries and territories, UNDP offers global perspective and local insight to help empower lives and build resilient nations.”
UNDP Indonesia’s mission is to be an agent for change in the human and social development of Indonesia. We, the UNDP Country Office (CO), aim to be a bridge between Indonesia an all donors as well as maintaining our status as a trusted partner to all stakeholders. We work in four key areas of development: Governance Reforms, Pro-Poor Policy Reforms, Conflict Prevention and Recovery, and Environment Management, with the overarching aim of reducing poverty in Indonesia. Besides the four priority areas, UNDP Indonesia is also engaged in a variety of crosscutting initiatives focused on HIV/AIDS, gender equality, and information and technology for development.
I. Organizational Context
REDD+ (Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and forest Degradation) has gained traction in the international climate change dialogue and has become an eminent priority for Indonesia because deforestation and forest degradation still represent a major source of Green House Gas (GHG) emissions, in addition to hindering human development and causing environmental problems in the country. Most of Indonesia’s GHG emissions are related to land degradation, inappropriate land uses, and land conversion.
Indonesia has played a leading and continually expanding role in addressing the global climate change challenge. At the G20 Summit in Pittsburgh on September 2009, President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono committed to a 26% emission reduction target by 2020, and 41% emission reduction with international support, making Indonesia the first large developing country to do so. It is widely acknowledged that REDD+ will play an important role to support Indonesia’s voluntary commitment to reduce its emissions. To deliver significant reductions a set of clear targets, tailored strategies, policies and institutions will be required.
The Norway Indonesia Climate Change Partnership
In response to the President’s firm commitment, on May 26th, 2010, the government of Indonesia and Norway signed a Letter of Intent (LoI), outlining a USD 1 billion programme of “Cooperation on reducing greenhouse gas emissions form deforestation and forest degradation”. This ambitious programme will be implemented in three phases, namely “Preparation”, with five key results to be achieved mostly by the end of 2010; “Transformation”, involving substantial capacity building and a single-province pilot over the period 2011-2013; and “Contributions for verified emission reductions”, from 2014 onwards, for national level implementation of measures to reduce emissions. This is a crucial programme aiming to reduce deforestation and land degradation in Indonesia’s substantial forest cover, together with associated Green House Gas emissions.
