Sustainable Forestry in Indonesia – a Pivot To the Provinces

Sustainable Forestry in Indonesia – a Pivot to The Provinces

Date: Oct 24, 2022

Time: 10:00 to 11:30 (KST/GMT+9)

Overview:

In Indonesia, GGGI is supporting the Indonesian government with the mainstreaming of national policies and plans into local action.  Our program focuses on six focal provinces, Central, South, East and North Kalimantan, and Papua and West Papua provinces.  

This work in the provinces builds on five key strengths of the provincial-based approach:

  1. Regional Charters aligned with Green growth
  2. Better understanding of local development challenges and opportunities for positive change
  3. More willingness to close the sectoral divides and collaborate
  4. Boldness to innovate locally
  5. Co-opting multi-stakeholders

In this session, the provincial representatives of GGGI will be presenting the latest developments and ideas on how to make use of these strengths to accelerate and expand green growth sub-nationally for lasting jurisdictional contributions to major emissions reductions and increased low carbon development in the forestry and land-use sector, thus contributing to the achievement of Indonesia’s ambitious NDC targets and FOLU Net Sink 2030 Strategy.
