Historique

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

The Government of Indonesia established the Indonesia Climate Change Trust Fund (ICCTF) decree in September 2009. The ICCTF shall be nationally managed, and is part of Government’s commitment to implement the Jakarta Commitments to enhance national ownership and improve aid coordination in response to climate change.

In this framework, the Government and the UNDP shall jointly establish and implement the project titled “Preparatory Arrangements for the Indonesia Climate Change Trust Fund (PREP-ICCTF)”. Under terms of the signed Letter of Agreement (September 2009), the objects of the project shall be to (1) Provide support to priority climate change initiatives as prioritized by the Government, during an interim period, while the ICCTF is being established; (2) Provide support and development for establishment of the ICCTF; and (3) Support capacity development needs of the Government of Indonesia for the efficient and effective implementation of the ICCTF. The project shall enable the Government and national trustee to gradually assume full operational responsibility within the PREP-ICCTF period.

To implement the PREP-ICCTF, various staff will be hired and activities undertaken under the ICCTF Secretariat, which will also cover the functions of a standard UNDP Project Management Unit (PMU).

ICCTF operates in three windows, namely: energy, forestry and peatland, and resilience and adaptation. On June 2010, the ICCTF Steering Committee has approved three pilot projects to be funded in the first batch funding of ICCTF. The pilot projects covers the area of energy conservation (energy window, implemented by the Ministry of Industry), sustainable peatland management (forestry and peatland window, implemented by the Ministry of Agriculture), and public awareness raising (resilience and adaptation window, implemented by the Agency for Meteorology, Climatology, and Geophysics/BMKG). The Letter of Agreement (LoA) of the pilot projects was signed in September 2010, and the projects are expected to finish in 2011, before the PREP-ICCTF period ends.

Under the guidance and supervision of the National Project Manager (NPM) of PREP-ICCTF and Head of ICCTF Secretariat, the Land Based Mitigation Window Officer  will be responsible in implement the coordination of activities of land based mitigation window of the PREP-ICCTF as well as PREP-ICCTF funded project activities. He/she will be responsible for ensuring the technical quality of forestry and peatland pilot project, as well as to coordinate the project selection process in the forestry and peatland window.

The Land Based Mitigation Window Officer will be responsible for coordinating the activities under forestry and peatland window, as well as for reviewing and providing recommendation of the forestry and peatland pilot project implementation on technical substance aspect. Under the guidance and direct supervision of the Head of ICCTF Secretariat and National Project Manager (NPM) of PREP-ICCTF he/she will also be responsible in coordinating the new batch project selection process in forestry and peatland window and also in liaising with related ICCTF stakeholders in forestry and peatland window.
