Antecedentes

UNDP Indonesia's mission is to be an agent for change in the human and social development of Indonesia. We aim to be a bridge between Indonesia and all donors as well as a trusted partner to all stakeholders. We work in four key areas of development: Democratic Governance, Regional Development and Poverty Reduction, Conflict Prevention and Recovery, and Environment and Climate Change. Besides the four priority areas, UNDP Indonesia is also engaged in crosscutting initiatives such as HIV/AIDS and gender equality.

I. Organizational Context

The UN-REDD Joint Programme is a collaborative programme between UNDP/UNEP/FAO, aimed at coordinating national and international efforts in the creation of a post Kyoto agreement on REDD. The Programme was officially launched by the Norwegian Prime Minister and UN Secretary General in September 2008, and Indonesia was selected as one of the pilot countries.

The Ministry of Forestry Indonesia, together with FAO, UNEP and UNDP has successfully developed the UN-REDD National Joint Programme (NJP) for Indonesia. The NJP was signed by the Indonesian Government and the UN in November 2009.

The Objective of the UN-REDD NJP is “to support the GoI in attaining REDD-Readiness”. In order to secure this Objective, three Outcomes will be pursued:

Outcome 1: Strengthened multi-stakeholder participation and consensus at national level.
Outcome 2: Successful demonstration of establishing a REL, MRV and fair payment systems based on the national REDD architecture.
Outcome 3: Capacity established to implement REDD at decentralized levels.

For more details on the UNREDD National Joint Programme, reference is made to Annex 1.
To implement the NJP, a UN-REDD Programme Management Unit (PMU) will be established at the Ministry of Forestry. The PMU will be headed by a National Programme Manager with technical support coming from a Chief Technical Advisor. The PMU will include three teams each focusing on one of the three outcomes. Each of these teams will be headed by a team leader who will report to the National Programme Manager.
