The Agreement between the Government of the Federal Republic of Germany and
the Government of Indonesia on Technical Cooperation dated 9 April 1984 (see
Annex 1);
Formal letter from BMUB to BAPPENAS and reply letter from BAPPENAS to
German Embassy Jakarta with subject: Bilateral German-Indonesian Cooperation.
Proposal for four joint cooperation projects as part of the Federal Ministry for the
Environment, Nature Conservation and Nuclear Safety's International Climate
Initiative dated 18 October 2012 and reply letter dated 28 June 2013 (see Annex 3)
In accordance with Article 1.2 of the aforementioned Agreement dated 9 April 1984
details of the Project are to be laid down in an agreement between GIZ and
BAPPENAS. GIZ is acting in execution of the commission with which it has been
charged by the Government of the Federal Republic of Germany.
Indonesia has developed a national GHG mitigation action plan, the RAN-GRK to
achieve the emission reduction target of -26/-41% until 2020. Corresponding local
action plans for the development and implementation on local government level
(RAD GRKs) are currently made and entering implementation starting from end
2012. This defines a number of planned actions which shall be financed in
implementation through the National Climate Fund. Indonesia is one of the first
countries worldwide which has established a National Cimate Fund , the
Indonesian Climate Change Trust Fund (ICCTF). In order to have Direct Access to
the Funds within the UN system countries must announce and accredit their
National Implementing Entities. Such NIEs are supposed to function as the entry
structure for all kinds and volumes of internationally provided climate finance. At
the same time such an institution is supposed to establish a national financing
mechanism for the implementation of NAMAs.
The governance of climate change finance in Indonesia is in its initial stage and
shows room for improvement in areas of transparency and accountability,
developing the right finance mechanism to channel funds to potential mitigation
actions and target different actors, to link international climate finance with national
budgets and to steer decisions about the most effective and efficient use of funds.
The announcement of the Indonesian president to reduce GHG emissions by -26
% until the year 2020 by domestic funds and an additional 15% in case of
international (financial) support sets the stage for the development of a financial
system for climate change mitigation in Indonesia. The current structure of the
ICCTF nor other funds in Indonesia cannot provide the financing for the RAN-GRK
without support from the private sector. The planned private sector based

Summary Record
of the Negotiations on Development Cooperation between
the Government of the Republic of Indonesia and the
Government of the Federal Republic of Germany
held in Jakarta on 20 October 2011
Within the German government, the Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and
Development (BMZ) is responsible for development cooperation. The BMZ is therefore the
political point of contact for all Financial Cooperation and Technical Cooperation projects and
programs and all other projects and programs mentioned in this document, unless specified
otherwise. The exceptions are projects/programs mentioned in part 1.2.4. for which the
Federal Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation and Nuclear Safety is
responsible.
Page 1 of 27
1.2. General context and prerequisites for development cooperation
Both governments agreed to continue their cooperation in the three priority areas
of climate change and sustainable development, private sector development and
good governance and decentralization.
Furthermore, the German side explained that the BMZ is currently reviewing its
strategy with regard to emerging economies that help shape global processes
within the G-20 - among them Indonesia. The BMZ is convinced that finding
answers to key issues such as global environmental protection and climate change
mitigation, peace and security, and the elim'1nation of extreme poverty worldwide,
can only be achieved in partnership with these countries.
The German side expressed respect for Indonesia's progress and development
and is convinced that many areas are progressing well. Limited funding is often a
development bottleneck, but could be addressed through promotional loans.
Page 2 of 27
1.2.3. Special Energy and Climate Fund (EKF)
The German government informed the Indonesian side that it had established a
Special Energy and Climate Fund (EKF) to fund additional measures aimed at
climate change mitigation and adaptation and the preservation of biodiversity. The
source of these additional funds is revenue from the auctioning of carbon credits.
The funds are made available for project(s)/program(s) under the responsibility of
the BMZ and/or the BMU.
The measures outlined in sections 1.2.4.2 and 1.2.4.3 will be largely financed out of
this fund.
Included in the sums listed above are the following three projects that have been
agreed upon through an exchange of notes (Note Verbale No. 245/2011 dated
05.05.2011 ):
Page 3 of 27
1vt
1) TC, €0.5 million for the project "Support for the Improvement of the Indonesian
Population Administration System" (PAS) (TC): PN: 2008.2096.9
2) TC, €1.5 million for the project "Assistance in Preventing and Combating
Corruption in Indonesia" (TC): PN: 2005.2201.1
3) TC, €1.0 million for the project "Study and Expert Fund" (TC): PN: 2011.3507.8
In addition, the German government is willing to commit from BMU funding lines a
sum of up to €20.7 million, which excludes funding for global projects that are to be
implemented in several countries (see 1.2.4.2 project on V-NAMA and 1.2.4.3
trinational project on biodiversity). The funds under the Special Energy and Climate
Fund (EKF) for activities in the field of biodiversity (see 1.2.4.3) are earmarked for
the specific activities as described in Annex 6 and cannot be reprogrammed.

Preparation of Financial Cooperation projects and programs
Both sides agreed that, in order to prepare and support the envisaged Financial
Cooperation projects and programs and promotional loans, they will conduct studies,
produce expert opinions and deploy experts as the need arises. Such activities will be
coordinated between KfW and the relevant line authority. The funds for such efforts
shall be made available by the Government of the Federal Republic of Germany in
addition to the bilateral Financial Cooperation commitments. Both sides will report on
the implementation and outcome of such activities at the next government
consultat'1ons and/or negotiations.
Several studies are under preparation. Implementation of the respective investment
projects is subject to a decision by the Government of Indonesia regarding its
medium-to-long-term borrowing strategy and positive decision on the respective
projects.
As important reforms are underway, the Indonesian government can be praised for
its efforts and achievements, among them the well-designed policy on gender
mainstream'1ng and gender-responsive budgeting. At the same time, both sides
agree that issues like religious co-existence and improved participation of citizens,
i.e. women, require further and close attention by decision-makers.
Based on the National Development Plan 2011-2014 and the recent National
Economic Activation Plan, decentralization, bureaucratic reform and combating
corruption continue to be three basic pillars of governance reform in Indonesia. The
fast and high economic growth as well as the rapid change in the use of natural
resources requires the improvement of the legal framework and administrative
guidelines, as well as their effective implementation in almost all sectors and on all
three government levels. Reforms need to address minimum service standards,
new principles and procedures for fiscal decentralization and general administrative
management of public policy, planning and implementation to ensure that the
Page 5 of 27
present high economic growth can be transformed into a sound and sustainable
basis for the future development of Indonesia. The revision and implementation of
important laws and government regulations and appropriate guidelines and
procedures for bureaucratic reform are important steps towards more harmonious
and effective future development in all regions of the nation.
Also, the German and the Indonesian sides concur that the present institutional
setting in Indonesia provides a good basis for the eradication of widespread
corruption in the country ..
The program combines consulting and support measures for four Indonesian
Ministries, "Ministry of Home Affairs (MoHA)", "Ministry of Finance (MoF)" and
"Ministry of Administrative and Bureaucracy Reform (Kempan)", and the Ministry of
National Development Planning /Bappenas. It is aimed at developing a sound
framework for policies on decentralization and bureaucracy reform in Indonesia, as
well as improving public services both quantitatively and qualitatively.
With the current financial support the program will run until the end of 2012. The
additional increase of up to €2 million will guarantee funding from January 2013 into

The increase aims to support the ongoing project financially for the time after 2012.
The focus is clearly on the improvement of framework conditions to create policies
responsive to women's rights at national and regional level.
Note: The funding for the following two projects have been discussed during the
government consultations in Jakarta on 7 April 2011. The funding has already been
assurad by a note verbale following those talks (Note Verbale No. 245 /2011
dated 05.05.2011 ).
The ongoing project supports the modernization of six local authorities through
Technical Cooperation and small financial investments. The cooperating partner
has selected 24 additional local authorities that would need support in this area.
This project could serve as a country-wide reference for the modernization of
population administration in other local authorities. It also provides important new
regulations, procedures and capacity-building programs for the planned
implementation of the electronic identity card in Indonesia.
Should this be of interest to the Indonesian side, capacity development and training
could be offered by GIZ, but would have to be funded outside the regular bilateral
development cooperation. The German side would be pleased to provide further
information.
The goal of the increase in financial support is to extend the project until mid-2013
and to enable the Indonesian Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) to better
tackle corruption. In addition to the "clearing house" as an instrument for knowledge
management, it is planned to establish an Anti-Corruption Learning Center within
the same institutional structure. In cooperation with other ministries and the national
education institutions (e.g. the National Academy of Administration or universities) it
Page 7 of 27
is to develop educational programs and offer train-the-trainer courses for mediators
from ministries.
Both governments reiterated the priorit'1es that were laid out in the Medium-Term
Development Plan of the Indonesian Government (RPJM 2010-2014) and that are
reflected in the two sub-sectors that have been selected for Indonesian-German
cooperation in this priority area ("Promotion of the Private Sector" and "Technical
and Vocational Education and Training").
In this context, the German government complimented the Indonesian side for the
high economic growth rates it has sustained throughout recent years. It shares the
Indonesian government's concern about existing deficits in infrastructure as well as
the regulatory framework. At the same time, the German government voiced its
expectations that the implementation of the "Master Plan for the Acceleration and
Expansion of Indonesia's Economic Development 2011-2025" (Masterplan
Percepatan dan Perluasan Pembangunan Ekonomi Indonesia! MP3EI) will address
both the remaining bottlenecks to more quality as well as the more equitable
distribution of growth. The two sides agree that strong private sector development is
key to sustainable economic development. In the light of the Master Plan's focus on
regional economic and human resources development as well as its call for
increased private investment, both governments agree that the ongoing projects on
regional economic and human resources development are well chosen and provide
a good basis for further aligning German contributions with Indonesian development
priorities.
All in all, the German side considers Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) an
important concept and would like to enter into a dialogue with Indonesia to explore
further possibilities for strengthening CSR instruments.
A central focus of the ongoing project will be the improvement of the general
framework, sustainable mainstreaming of local and regional development (LRED)
Page 8 of 27
instruments in partner institutions, and better inter-linkages between the
approaches on regional and national level. The approaches adopted at national
level, as well as in Central Java and in West Kalimantan, will be further developed.
In February 2011 West Nusa Tenggara was selected as the third pilot province of
the project.
The additional funds committed on top of the existing commitment are mainly to be
used to extend the program to include the new area of "Green Economy", in close
cooperation with the programs in the priority area "Climate Change and Sustainable
Development". A core issue in this area that was put forward by the Indonesian side
is the attainment of broad-based climate-friendly economic development by
improving resource efficiency and promoting innovation, specifically aiming at small
and medium-sized enterprises. This area is an appropriate extension of existing
approaches in the area of climate and environmental policies and provides many
possibilities for cooperation with other areas of German development cooperation
as well as with German private businesses and Indonesian companies, for instance
in the area of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR).

the Ministry of Manpower and Transmigration to become "Centres of Excellence":
Utilising the experience of the former project "Indonesian-German-Institute" (IGI),
certain TVET institutes are to be made into regional centres of excellence. The
centres are to serve as regional hubs for certain sectors, meeting international
standards and facilitating the school-to-work transition of their graduates.
II is proposed to extend the current project phase by one additional year (until
December 2014).
Moreover, both sides agree that initial steps should be taken to explore ·the
possibilities of triangular cooperation with Myanmar in the field of vocational
education and training within the framework of the SED-TVET Program. The
Indonesian side expressed strong interest in triangular cooperation and made clear
that the modalities of implementation have to be discussed further.
The German government plans to offer a further debt swap, this time in the field of
higher education (Debt Swap VII), which will be implemented by the German
Academic Exchange Service (DAAD). Program activities concern the financing of
scholarships for doctoral and postgraduate studies of Indonesian students at
German universities.
This offer for the planned Financial Cooperation Debt Swap VII is conditional on the
approval of the budget committee of the German parliament. The German side
welcomed the Indonesian's side pledge to rapidly implement the outstanding debt
swap for nature VI (2008).
The cancellation of the Debt Swap amount will be based upon cash payments by
the Indonesian Government into program activities of up to 50% of the Debt Swap
amount. The details of program implementation will be agreed in a Debt Swap
Agreement between KIW and the Indonesian Ministry of Finance (MoF) and DAAD,
as well as in a Memorandum of Understanding between the Ministry of National
Education (MaNE) and DAAD.

2.3.3.2. Ongoing Cooperation:
In the forestry sector, the German government welcomes Indonesia's reform efforts
in the forest sector and the first steps taken towards the implementation of a
consistent REDD+ framework in Indonesia, including the harmonization of
monitoring and evaluation. The signing of the "Moratorium" in May 2011 was an
important step forward and will give also new impetus to the protection of
Indonesian forests. Both governments agree that coordination of all efforts to
protect Indonesia's forest needs further improvement.
Page 11 of 27
The German government encourages Indonesia's plans to reduce and reform
energy subsidies. In this respect both governments recall the decision made during
the G-20 summit in Pittsburgh on 26 September 2009: 1
Thus, both governments agree that efforts to promote the use of renewable
energies, such as geothermal energy, within the framework of the two countries'
development cooperation need to be combined with continuous improvement of the
overall framework conditions for broader application of renewable energy
technologies in Indonesia. In this respect the German government welcomed
Indonesia's envisaged fiscal incentives to attract more private investors to the
Indonesian market, especially for the renewable energy sector.
The project offers advice to the Ministry of Transportation and selected Indonesian
cities on measures for the planning and implementation of an environmentally-
friendly, energy-efficient and climate-friendly transport system. The main focus has
so far been centered on advisory services for the development of the "National
policy on sustainable Urban MobHity" as well as on support for partner cities in their
efforts to implement sustainable modes of transport and to improve urban mobility.
The project will now move on to support the refinement of the policy at national level
as well as the implementation of public transport and non-motorized mobility at the
city level. The implementation of this commitment is subject to the solving of the
pending issues (the signing of the implementation agreement).

Forests and climate change
Commitment: up to €7,000,000.00
The Technical Cooperation program module is an integral part of the overall Forests
and Climate Change program. It offers policy advice, strategy development and
implementation in the areas of forests and climate change. It also supports the
development of innovative instruments and mechanisms for the reduction of
greenhouse gas emissions from deforestation and forest degratation plus
sustainable forest management, conservation and increase of carbon stocks
(REDO+), the implementation of those instruments in selected districts of
Kalimantan and the input of the results into the national, regional and international
discussion on forests and climate change. Furthermore, it supports environmental
conservation protection and sustainable development in areas with high biodiversity
in the Heart of Borneo.
The new commitment will be used in a new project phase to give support in the
following areas: monitoring and evaluation of the strategic sector plan 2010 - 2014
and the priority programs contained therein; further support for the implementation
of forestry administrative reform, especially with regard to the operationalization of
the Forest Management Unit (FMU) approach concept is planned to provide this in
partnership with relevant German institutions. Capacity development will be a new
cross-cutting component. The Indonesian side expressed particular interest in
strengthening the vocational education and training in forestry ..
Commitment: up to €7,500,000.00
Additionally, the current program will provide support to the younger generation with
a new component "Climate Change in Education", using the new commitment of
€3,000,000. Children and teenagers in particular tend to be very open to
environmental topics, a good starting point for raising awareness of climate change
Page 13 of 27
issues. Furthermore, using the knowledge they have gained, students can act as
multipliers for the issue in their families and communities. Therefore, it is planned to
integrate climate change topics into the curricula and teaching of local schools and
professional training for teachers. To ensure synergies, close cooperation with the
Technical and Vocational Education and Training program will be an integral
part of this component.
Both parties agreed that the future processing and implementation of the new
allocations for the Geothermal Energy Program and the Emission Reduction in
Cities - Solid Waste Management Program are, on the Indonesian side, subject to
the inclusion of these activities in the "Blue Book" and a positive decision on these
activities by the Government of the Republic of Indonesia.
Geothermal Program
The Geothermal Program aims to support the lndones"1an strategy for rapid
extension of the national energy supply from renewable resources. This is crucial in
reducing emissions while maintaining economic growth. The program started in
2010 with total funding of €21 0 million. This first commitment is to be invested in the
project sites at Kotamobagu (Sulawesi) and Seulawah Agam (Sumatra/Aceh). In
order to ensure full financing of these two sites., an additional commitment for this
program was agreed upon, thus increasing the total program allocation to up to
€295 million.
Page 14 of 27
Emission Reduction in Cities- Solid Waste Management
Cities both contribute to and are affected by climate change. The program, which
began in 2010 with an allocation of €25 million, seeks to finance investments in
Indonesian cities that help mitigate greenhouse gas emissions specifically in the
solid waste management sector. This second tranche is allocated to ensure full
financing for this already agreed-upon program. The Swiss State Secretariat for
Economic Affairs (SECO) will support the program with a grant of up to €7.6 million
for accompanying measures as well as a grant of up to CHF 1.275 million for a
complementary organic waste analysis and treatment component which will be
carried out by the Swiss Federal Institute of Aquatic Science and Technology
(EAWAG). SECO's commitment is conditional upon the approval of the Swiss
Federal Council, which is expected in October 2011. The experiences gained could
be replicated in other cities not covered by this program.
Page 15 of 27
as part of the on-going studies, a fact finding mission regarding the potential for
future activities on Sulawesi in these fields shall be carried out.
The German government has provided grant funds totaling €7. 72 million for partial
financing for the explorat'1on phase of the Seulawah Agam Geothermal Energy
Project, including the services of a Transaction Advisor. The German government
acknowledged the efforts that have been undertaken to facilitate the implementation
of the project. The Seulawah Agam Geothermal Power Project is widely considered
an important pilot project since it is designed to be the first Public-Private
Partnership in the geothermal energy sector. Hence, a further delay would be a
serious setback to the promotion of private sector involvement in reaching
Indonesia's policy goals. Both sides agreed that all administrative obstacles shall
be resolved as soon as possible so that the grant funds can be disbursed in
accordance with the project design agreed upon.
2.4.4. Activities of the German Federal Ministry for the Environment, Nature
Conservation and Nuclear Safety (BMU)
The Indonesian side expressed their interest in further cooperation with Germany in
the context of the Indonesian Climate Change Trust Fund (ICCTF). In that context
they submitted a proposal "Strategic Partnership for Supported NAMAS and
Climate Finance". The German side expressed their interest in and took note of this
proposal.
2.4.4.1. Ongoing projects and 2011 commitments under funding lines of the BMU
2.4.4.2. In 2011, the German government is willing to commit the following proposed
projects under the ICI:
The use of biomass waste from agroindustry and the establishment of small stand-
alone networks will require innovative approaches. Since Indonesia is by far the
largest member of ASEAN, the project will be particularly important in terms of
sending a signal.
The Indonesian side proposed the involvement of the Ministry of Forestry in this
project considering that they have several renewable energy related projects in the
Forestry sector such as the use of sawmill residue and timber and non-timber
plantation such as ca/ophylum inophylum.
Volume: up to €3 million
Partner institutions: Directorate General for New and Renewable Energy and
Energy Conservation (NREEC)
Page 17 of 27
Project title: V-NAMA - Vertically Integrated NAMAs to Involve Sub-national
Actors in National Mitigation Strategies
The aim of the project is to develop a practicable strategy for vertically integrated
NAMAs (v-NAMAs). With this aim in mind, the v-NAMA approach ·Is to be piloted in
two countries and sectors (waste sector in Indonesia, buildings in South Africa) and,
using the experience gained, fleshed out in such a way that it can be adopted by
other countries and made a component of international climate financing. The
result will be a frame of reference with specific recommendations for action and
guidelines on designing v-NAMAs that can be measured, reported and verified
(MRVed) and also financed. At the same time, expert workshops and dialogue
events will be used to ensure that the proposals developed through the project can
be discussed and disseminated internationally.
In this way, the project will support international efforts to design the NAMA
mechanism in such a way that it can also be used more strongly to use the
mitigation potential in areas that fall within the responsibility of sub-national
authorities.
Volume: up to €2.8 million for Indonesia and South Africa (it is not possible to
specify the project budget amount per country.)
Page 18 of 27
The planned plantation development could thus be redirected from good quality
natural forest to already deforested and degraded forest lands, as well as
implementing low-emission production management practices. This allow
development of oil palm plantation for sustainable economic growth whilst also
capturing carbon and generating environmental benefits by retaining and
sustainably managing remaining forest.
In addition, the German government is willing to commit up to €22.2 million for the
following proposed activities of bilateral cooperation (including one trinational
proposal) in the field of biodiversity:
Page 19 of 27

The Indonesian side welcomed and confirmed all the above mentioned projects
from BMU. For all these to ensure a smooth implementation both sides agreed to
discuss the necessary implementation agreement. In addition and to ensure
ownership of these projects, both sides confirm that it is important to include
Indonesian institutions from the very beginning i.e the planning phase. To achive
those target both side agreed to have further discussion.
The project aims to improve the framework conditions for the implementation of an
integrated Social Protection System. The cooperation shall be extended and
consolidated in the following intervention areas: (1) Advisory and capacity building
for BAPPENAS in social protection policy development; (2) Advisory services &
facilitation of knowledge exchange for BAPPENAS, the Council of National Social
Security, the Secretariat of the National Team for the Acceleration of Poverty
Reduction under the Office of the Vice President and other ministries and
stakeholders relevant to the implementation of Law No. 40/2004, particularly
through the Road Map for Universal Coverage on Health Insurance, which details
steps to cover the entire population, including informal workers, vulnerable groups
and the poor; (3) Capacity building and technical support for the National Social
Security Council to implement the National Social Security System (SJSN); (4) A
consulting team to help improve the operation of the CCT program (Program
Ke!uarga Harapan!PKH) implemented by the Ministry of Social Affairs; and (5)
Advisory services for Bappenas and the Ministry of Social Affairs on the design and
implementation of social services for people with disabilities and the elderly.
Note: The funding for the following project was discussed during the government
consultations in Jakarta on 7 April 2011. The funding has already been assured by
a note verbale following those talks (Note Verbale No. 245 /2011 dated
05.05.2011).

Study and Expert Fund
The Study and Expert Fund (SFF) will provide financial support for the planning of
technical cooperation measures, offer urgent short-term financial support for
running projects and provide financial support for various other Technical
Cooperation measures with a low financial volume.
Both sides agreed that a twinning arrangement between the Provincial Hospital
Banda Aceh and - should a suitable partner be found - a German hospital could
help to reinforce the positive outcomes achieved during the investment phase (full
reconstruction and equipment of the new hospital) as well as during the ongoing
sustainability phase (support for hospital management in improving operation of the
hospital). The agreed-upon activities will be completed as planned but the German
side offered to support the establishment of a twinning arrangement until the end of
2012.

2.6. Development cooperation actors: merger of GTZ, OED and lnWent
Since 1 January 2011, GIZ has brought together under one roof the capacities and
long-standing experience of three organizations: the Deutscher Entwicklungsdienst
(OED) gGmbH (German Development Service), the Deutsche Gesellschaft fUr
Technische Zusammenarbeit (GTZ) GmbH (German technical cooperation) and
lnWEnt - Capacity Building International, Germany under the legal framework of
the former GTZ.
Ongoing and future project activities of the former DED and former lnWEnt will be
included in the ongoing TC Programs/Modules of the former GTZ with a total sum of
€2.855.165. Please refer to Annex 7 for further details.
During the government consultations in April 2011 it was agreed that Energy
Efficiency Programs should also be supported through promotional loans or private
sector financing. Therefore, a feasibility study for the rehabilitation of the thermal
power plant Belawan/Sumatra is under preparation. It is intended that the
investment will be funded by a promotional loan. This project should be used as an
example of how to improve the efficiency of energy generation.
The Cities Development Initiative for Asia (CDIA) is a regional initiative established
in 2007 by the Government of Germany (BMZ) and the Asian Development Bank -
with additional support from the governments of Sweden and Austria and the
Shanghai Municipal Government. The Initiative provides assistance to medium-
sized Asian cities in bridging the gap between their development plans and the
implementation of their infrastructure investments.
Both sides welcome the invitation issued by the Indonesian Supreme Court to the
Judicial Integrity Group (JIG), a loose association of high-ranking judges from
OECD and developing countries, to hold its 8th meeting and subsequent workshop
from 25 to 29 January 2012 in Jakarta. The aim of the workshop is to disseminate
the Bangalore Principles of Judicial Conduct amongst the judges and court
employees of the ASEAN region and to highlight Indonesia's own experience in
integrity-based judicial reforms. The BMZ, together with UNODC, is financing and
organizing the workshop as well as the meeting. Indonesia will promote the
workshop among its judicial personnel and provide assistance in the organization of
the workshop.

3.4. Further players
Both governments welcome the independent work of the political foundations in the
areas of democracy promotion and development. The German side is very grateful
for the Indonesian government's willingness to provide the political foundations with
the formal prerequisites for their work.
Other actors:
The DEG is part of the KNV Bankengruppe. It specializes in long-term project and
corporate financing of private companies in developing and transition countries.
Starting in 1973, Indonesia has been one of the main countries for DEG
investments. To date, DEG has provided total financing of €586 million for
approximately 50 private companies in Indonesia. The present portfolio amounts to
€182 million which is invested in 14 private companies, among others in
infrastructure, the financial sector and the manufacturing industry.
The German Savings Bank Finance Group uses its own experience of
decentralized organization and association structures to support this development
as part of a consultancy project with the AS BANDA association.

5.2. Sunset and project/program replacement clause
The German side draws particular attention to the fact that the commitments made
under Financial Cooperation and Technical Cooperation (see cf. 2) ) will lapse if
within eight years of the year in which the commitment was made no
implementation agreement, i.e. in the case of Financial Cooperation a
loan/financing agreement and in the case of Technical Cooperation an
implementation agreement, has been concluded. Thus, commitments made during
the 2011 negotiations are subject to a 31 December 2019 deadline. This sunset
clause does not apply to commitments made under the Special Energy and Climate
Fund. These measures must be fully completed by 31 December 2017. Any unused
funding will lapse.
Should one or more of the projects/programs mentioned not be implemented or only
be partially implemented, it/they may be replaced in mutual agreement between the
two governments by another project/program or projects/programs. The following
programs mentioned under 2.4.3.1 cannot be replaced by others: the Geothermal
Program and the Emission Reduction in Cities - Solid Waste Management
Program.
Projects/programs conducted under the Special Energy and Climate Fund may only
be replaced by projects/programs that contribute to the main aim's of the Fund and
can be realized in accordance with the provisions of the previous paragraph by 31
December 2017.

Opening Remarks
By
Wismana Adi Suryabrata
Deputy Minister/Chairman for Development Funding, Bappenas
at the Indonesian-German Government Negotiations on Development Cooperation
Jakarta, 20 October 2011
It is an honor to have you all here to exchange views and ideas in various topics of our development
cooperation which inevitably deepens our mutual understanding and strengthening the already close
relations between Germany and Indonesia.
In this occasion, on behalf of the Government of Indonesia, I would like to express our sincere
gratitude and appreciation to the German Government for supporting and assisting Indonesia's
development through various channels of development cooperation schemes.
His Excellency,
Distinguished Delegates,
Ladies and Gentlemen,
Since our consultation meeting in last April, there has been new development in regard to external
borrowing policy, particularly as the impact of the current global economic situation. Our government
acknowledges the important role of foreign assistance in helping us to finance our development
programs. The other benefit of foreign assistance is transfer of knowledge through the collaboration
between stakeholders which in turn we may replicate those with our own resources as good as with
support from our development partners. However, the current world economic has highlighted the
urgency to revise some of our policy. For example, our Government has the intention to implement a
more prudent macro-economic policy by lowering the deficit target and focusing our attention on
improving the quality of spending, including spending financed by the foreign assistance. One of
implications of the lower budget deficit target is the reduction of the amount of foreign loans
borrowing. In addition, in the near future foreign loans will be targeted mainly to finance the
infrastructure and energy sectors.
In regard to our efforts to improve the quality of spending, currently we are developing a performance
contract for foreign loan to monitor the performance of ministries which are executing foreign loans
funded projects. This performance report will be used among others as one of criteria in deciding the
eligibility of ministries in obtaining foreign loans support.
In term of loan and grant procedure, I would like to update you with the new government regulation
that we have since our negotiation last year. Our Government has issued the Government Regulation
No.1 0 of 2011. This regulation is designed to revise the Government Regulation No.2 of 2006, with
intention to improve efficiency and effectiveness in external financing, to define more clearly
procedure for external assistance and to optimize the benefit· from all possible external financing
resources.
Basically, there are some similarities between these two regulations when dealing with the procedure
of the submission of loan project proposals. Like the Government Regulation No. 2 of 2006, the new
regulation states that the proposals shall be submitted by ministries/institutions and State Owned
Companies to the Minister of Planning by complying with RJPM and taking into account the External
Debt Utilization Plan. The proposal shall include the activities of which the financing will be on
granting to the Regional Government. In case the Ministry/Institution will propose the external debt for
state's capital absorption, the proposal shall be submitted through the Ministry of Finance. The
Regional Government shall submit the proposal of activity that can be financed from External Debt to
the Minister of Planning by complying with Regional Medium Term, Development Plan and by taking
into account the External Debt Utilization Plan.
However, in contrast to Government Regulation No. 2 of 2006, the new regulation stipulates the
different procedure for external debt and grants. The new regulation says that external debt projects
will be listed twice, on medium term list and annual list, meanwhile grant projects is listed once a year,
without medium term list.
Apart from that, there is also a change in the term of readiness criteria. We acknowledge that the
previous regulation rigidly set readiness criteria which resulted in the unforeseen difficulties in the
implementation process. Having understood this situation, we set a readiness criterion which is more
flexible and it is promulgated by a Minister Regulation.
In addition, we would like to emphasize about the readiness criteria of the proposed projects. Line
ministries, local governments and State Owned companies are requested to increase the
preparedness of projects that have been listed on Blue Book, in line with the readiness criteria which
consist of:
• Implementation plan
• Indicators of monitoring and evaluation performances
• Organisation and management of project implementation
• Land acquisition or resettlement plan for projects required land acquisition process.
2
In line with our effort to enhance the quality of spending, we hope that we could together enhance the
preparedness of the proposed projects in order to smooth implementation.
His Excellency,
Distinguished Delegates,
Ladies and Gentlemen,
In the case of the negotiation process for grant projects, I would like to elaborate that we divide grant
into two kinds: Planned Grant and Direct Grant. The planned grant means that the Grant is carried
out through a planning mechanism, whereas the direct grant is not carried out through the planning
mechanism. The negotiation of planned grant shall be conducted by the Minister of Finance or his
authorized official. Therefore, the grant agreement shall be signed by the Minister of Finance of his
authorized official. Meanwhile, the negotiation of direct grant shall be carried out by the line
Minister/Head of Institution or his authorized official. As a consequence of it, the the Minister/Head of
Institution or authorized official can sign the Grant Agreement.
His Excellency,
Distinguished Delegates,
Ladies and Gentlemen,
Let me move to our agenda today. In this meeting, we have several issues to be discussed. Our main
agenda is to discuss our development cooperation. In the first session, we are going to discuss the
general context for development cooperation, confirmation about priority areas and its flexibility,
commitment and reprogrammed funds. In the next session, we will discuss the projects under
financial and technical cooperation scheme according to their priority areas which are good
governance/decentralization, private sector development, and climate change. Later on, we also will
address our cooperation outside the priority areas as well as issues on debt swap.
In the next session, we will give an opportunity to the German delegation to elaborate about the
activities of the German Federal Ministry for Education and Research. After that is the time to discuss
any other business. In this session we will explore the possibilities of trilateral cooperation and define
any kind of ways that both government can do to increase the benefit of our development cooperation
in the future. Following that, we will discuss about the possibilities of the next bilateral negotiations.
Our negotiation meeting will be ended by the conclusion session.
Finally, I would like to conclude my remarks by expressing our gratitude once again to the
Government of Germany and our sincere hope that we will do our utmost to mutual benefit of the
cooperation between Germany and Indonesia. We also expect that th'1s negotiation meeting will
contribute constructively to the dialog for the mutual benefit of our countries.
Thank you.

Annex 4
This year we have been witnessing a considerable number of official exchanges between
our two countries. Today's negotiations are based on the Consultations we had in April.
Since, we had two delegations from the German Bundestag. In August, the chairperson of its
Committee for Economic Cooperation and Development, Mrs. Wohrl, and her delegation met
with H.E. Minister Mrs. Prof. Armida Alishabana for an update on the cooperation. The
delegation were informed by H.E. Minister for Energy and Mineral Resources, Mr. Dawin
Zahedy Saleh, when he presented the ambitious plan to increase the usage of renewable
energy to 25 % in 2020. He sees Germany as an important partner in this endeavor.
In the presence of the delegation, H.E. Minister Freddy Numberi, the delegation and myself
inaugurated a new train for the Jabotabek region. It was developed in an Indonesian -
German consortium and will help to improve urban transport with a lower impact on the
environment than cars and bikes have.
Dear Deputy Minister Wismana, on October 41", we opened the exhibition on our
development cooperation here in Jakarta. A series of events we call Jerman dan Indonesia,
JERIN, will highlight our cultural, scientific and economic relations. The exhibition which was
largely prepared by GIZ will travel to Yogyakarta, Makassar, Balikpapan, Aceh, Bandung
and other cities. This is done to draw attention to the presence of our programs in several
provinces of the archipelago.
Ten days ago, BAPPENAS and GIZ organized an important international conference.
Delegates from Germany, from a number of mostly Asian countries met with a high-ranking
1
panel from BAPPENAS, including Vice Minister Pak Lukita and deputy ministers, officials
from other ministries, researchers and civil society organizations on the topic of "Quality of
Growth for Quality of Life". Your government spelled out the dimensions of Indonesia's
development: Pro Growth, Pro Jobs, Pro Poor and Pro Environment. It was a lively
exchange with German and other international actors for an Indonesian "compass" for
sustainable and equitable development.
Many international observers, including Europeans, look with admiration at Indonesia with its
strong growth, record low public foreign debt and macro-economic stability. The passing
year has shown your dedicated chairmanship for integration of the South-East-Asian
countries. A common market seems to be within reach by 2015 and Europe is interested to
remain one of ASEAN's important trading and investment partners.
Today, the two delegations come together to agree upon a continuation of development
cooperation. The topics of inclusive growth will be taken up with regional economic
development. Our two countries have common goals to reduce carbon emissions by 2020 in
a considerable way. Programmes have been prepared contributing to a low carbon economy
which at the same time preserves the riches of Indonesia's unique bio-diversity.
Ladies and gentlemen, I am hopeful that we can pursue our cooperation and build on the
precious spirit of mutual understanding. I trust that agreed projects such as in the maritime
sector will be implemented. As outlined in the masterplan for connectivity, improving
transport facilities is to advance the well-being of the people of Indonesia, above all with
regard to its Eastern part. Our participation in that is a prviliege and great asset in German-
Indonesian relations: future-oriented, helping to bridge the gaps between some parts of
Indonesia and giving incentives to growth.
With this, I wish your deliberations all success and I thank you very much for your attention.

Opening Remarks
Ms Brunhilde Vest
on Development Cooperation
Your Excellencies Members of the Government and other State Institutions of Indonesia,
Distinguished Colleagues,
Let me first express my gratitude for the warm welcome you have extended to me and my
delegation. It is, as in previous years, a pleasure for us to visit your amazing country. We are
particularly grateful that we were able to find a suitable date for our Governmental
Negotiations that accommodated the interests and the time constraints of both sides.
We are here today to continue our strategic dialogue on development cooperation between
our two countries in order to chart our course for the years to come. I would like to
emphasize that this dialogue has been characterized by trust and exceptional commitment
on both sides and we are looking forward to resuming the fruitful and in- depth discussions
with you today.
Indonesia has been, and continues to be, an important partner for the international
community and for Germany. The wealth of our shared bilateral interests and experience is
also reflected in the impressive range of events organized as part of JERIN. We are
delighted that German development cooperation is represented with an exhibition illustrating
the themes of that cooperation in Indonesia, being staged in 8 cities across your country. I
do hope very much that this exhibition, which was opened to the public on 4 October and will
be travelling until February 2012, will stimulate a lively dialogue with different groups of
people and make our commitments more tangible.
1
And Indonesia will play an ever more important role in our relations with South-East Asia as
we recognize Indonesia's growing power as an emerging economy, the world's largest
Muslim-majority nation and the only South-East Asian nation in the G-20. This is also
reflected by the fact that Indonesia is chairing ASEAN in 2011, providing it with the chance to
bolster its diplomatic achievements and its standing in South-East Asia.
Also, Indonesia's near-term economic momentum remains positive, with economic growth
exceeding expectations and a positive forecast of 6.4 per cent GOP growth in 2011.
Acknowledging these developments, the BMZ is currently reviewing its strategy with regard
to emerging economies such as Indonesia that help shape global processes within the G-20.
The BMZ is convinced that finding answers to key issues such as global environmental
protection and climate change mitigation, peace and security, and the elimination of extreme
poverty worldwide can only be achieved with these global partners.
Together with the promotion of sustainable and green economic development and the
dialogue on global development agendas, mitigating climate change and environmental
protection have emerged as important issues in future cooperation with these countries.
I think that we are well equipped to address these issues within the framework of the three
existing priority areas of bilateral German-Indonesian development cooperation.
As it is important to highlight and strengthen your country's vast political and economic
potential, we would therefore like to offer our support for Indonesia's plans to build its own
role as a donor country in the region.
For a number of years, Indonesia itself has placed increasing emphasis on, and is known as
a promoter of, South-South cooperation and knowledge transfer across South-East Asia. We
are convinced that numerous countries in the region could profit from Indonesia's vast
experience. It would therefore be of mutual interest to look into trilateral cooperation and to
explore options that could add value to our bilateral development cooperation.
To name just one option, vocational training could be taken up as a thematic area in which
Indonesia and Germany could contribute their knowledge and examples of best practice.
2
ASEAN is aiming to establish a single market by 2015 and shared standards for vocational
training across South-East Asia could make an important contribution to this, helping to
facilitate the free flow of goods, services and investment.
Today we would therefore like to enter into a dialogue with you and discuss options for
knowledge-sharing within South-South cooperation, for example in the field of vocational
training, as both countries look back on successful und intensive cooperation in this field. In
this regard it might be worth mentioning that we are currently planning a conference on
vocational training due to take place in Vietnam in October 2012. It might be worth
integrating the regional perspective into this conference and drawing on Indonesia's
expertise. If Indonesia is interested, a second regional conference on vocational training
could be hosted by Indonesia in 2013.
Another important issue that I would like to address is the concept of Corporate Social
Responsibility (CSR). I feel that our cooperation in the field of private sector development
could be deepened if we were to draw more on strategies that incorporate both social and
economic development, arrived at through open, transparent, and participatory processes.
Most of today's challenges can only be solved if the business community, governments and
civil society organizations come together to combine their skills. During our last
governmental consultations in April, I already outlined the important role private sector
investment can play for sustainable development. To minimize harmful outcomes and to
positively contribute to development, many companies are already integrating social and
environmental concerns in their business operations and interactions with their stakeholders.
Building on that process, we would like to discuss with you how instruments of corporate
social responsibility could be better addressed by Indonesian-German development
cooperation programs.
As already mentioned, we would also like to discuss ideas for future cooperation between
Indonesia and Germany today, based on the assumption that the three existing priority areas
of Indonesian-German development cooperation (climate change, good
governance/decentralization and private sector development) are well suited to tackling the
major challenges that lie ahead.
3
First of all, we acknowledge and will continue to support the efforts of the government of
Indonesia to implement the reforms needed to successfully address these major challenges.
We have seen a lot of economic and social progress in Indonesia over the last few years,
many important governmental reforms are underway and quite a number of critical topics
have also been incorporated into our joint programs.
In this regard, I was very pleased to hear that the visit of the KPK delegation to Germany
was a success. We can see that the government of Indonesia is taking the necessary steps
to fight corruption and we are interested in continuing our dialogue on governance issues, as
the KPK will need strong support from all sides.
Furthermore, climate change und environmental protection are areas where we see a lot of
potential for increased cooperation. The importance of close cooperation in these areas is
also underlined by the fact that they have been identified by the BMZ as pillars of the new
strategic partnership with emerging economies like Indonesia I mentioned earlier. This is
why we would like to intensify our dialogue in the coming months and initiate a strategic
discussion on future issues and regions that we should focus on.
To substantiate the priority attached to climate change, the German government is making
available additional funds for international climate protection through the recently created
Special Energy and Climate Fund. This is a separate fund in the Federal Budget, which is
mainly financed from emission trading revenues. These are expected to increase
considerably over the next few years. This innovative source makes Germany well-prepared
to deliver long-term financing. The responsibility for the Fund is shared by BMZ and the
Federal Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation and Nuclear Safety, the BMU.
The BMU is already using some of the funds available from the Special Energy and Climate
Fund for commitments that we will also be discussing during these governmental
negotiations. I am therefore particularly happy that two colleagues from the BMU have joined
us here today as part of my delegation.
I think that the promotion of the use of renewable energies, such as geothermal energy,
forms an integral part of our two countries' development cooperation. Indonesia has the
world's largest geothermal reserves but less than 4% has been developed. Thus, the
Indonesian-German Geothermal Program is an important step forward, supporting the
Indonesian strategy for a fast extension of the national energy supply from renewable
4
resources. This will be important in maintaining economic growth while also reducing
emissions, as Indonesia committed to do under the UNFCCC (26% by 2020).
Adding to that, we welcome efforts from within the Indonesian government to gain more
fiscal space for long-term investment by reducing short-term energy subsidies step by step.
In this regard, both governments agree that, while support to poor households remains a
priority, a reduction of energy subsidies could encourage energy conservation and
investment in renewable energies.
I am sure that we agree that efforts to promote the use of renewable energies, such as
geothermal energy, within the framework of the two countries' development cooperation
need to be combined with continuous improvement of the overall framework conditions for
broader application of renewable energy technologies in Indonesia. In this respect the
German government welcomes Indonesia's envisaged fiscal incentives to attract more
private investors to the Indonesian market, for example by revising Government Regulation
No. 62/2008 in order to extend tax allowances to the renewable energy sector.
Of equal importance for us is the program that focuses on emissions reduction in cities -
particularly on solid waste management. This will help mitigate greenhouse gas emissions,
specifically in the solid waste management sector, and thereby contribute to the
implementation of the Indonesian National Climate Change Strategy in urban areas.
All this, however, would not be possible without development loans, which still form an
important pillar of Indonesian-German development cooperation. That is why it would be
helpful for us to receive further information about the current borrowing strategy of the
Indonesian Government, especially regarding bilateral development loans.
I am confident that we will continue and even strengthen our excellent cooperation today.
And I am looking forward to our fruitful exchange of ideas, which will give us the chance to
explore the potential and direction of Indonesian-German development cooperation. I am
also sure that these governmental negotiations will, as always, be guided by mutual trust, an
open-minded, friendly atmosphere and the goal of developing and following up on common
ideas.
I am happy to now introduce my delegation.

Annex 6
Proposed activities covered by the commitment for biodiversity funding
Project activities are aimed at ensuring sustainable management of the Leuser Ecosystem in
Sumatra in one or two pilot regions in order to reduce deforestation and restore degraded
forests, thus contributing to the conservation of one of the largest carbon sinks in Asia. The
area includes various protected areas that together form the World Heritage Site "Tropical
Rainforest Heritage of Sumatra", which was recently placed on the World Heritage list of
endangered sites. Proposed measures may include improvement of management capacities
in protected areas, demarcation of critical areas, improvement of living conditions for the
local population and implementation of a REDO monitoring system. Target groups will be the
local communities in the pilot areas, as well as the district, provincial and national
governments.
The activities would be carried out by KfW in cooperation with (inter alia): BAPPENAS, the
Ministry of Forestry, BAPPEDA Aceh, BPKEL Aceh (Badan Pengelola Kawasan Ekosistem
Leuser) and Aceh Geospatial Data Centre.
Indonesia ranks as one of the "biodiversity hotspots" in the world. Increasing deforestation
and a high rate of forest degradation are leading to a rapid decrease in biodiversity. In
Sumatra and Kalimantan the remaining forest ecosystems, especially peat land forests, that
act as important carbon stores and harbour rich biodiversity, are under threat. The project is
aimed at implementing measures to conserve the biodiversity and the carbon storage
capacity of forest ecosystems in Sumatra and Kalimantan. Participatory management of
protected areas will contribute to the reduction of deforestation and forest degradation and to
adaptation to climate change. A system for monitoring, reporting and verification will be
developed as a contribution to a national MRV system.
1
The activities would be carried out by GIZ in cooperation with (inter alia) the Ministry of
Forestry.
The Lesser Sunda Ecoregion (LSE) stretches from Bali to Timor Leste. It supports diverse
and highly productive habitats. Fish and coral diversity is extremely high.
The activities would be carried out by The Nature Conservancy (TNC) in cooperation with
(inter alia) the Ministry for Marine Affairs and Fisheries, East Nusa Tenggara Province
(Department of Fisheries) and further Provincial and District governments of the Lesser
Sunda region.
Implementation of the trilateral Action Plans for the Sulu-Sulawesi Marine Ecoregion
The Sulu-Sulawesi Seas cover about 1 million square kilometres. The area is considered
the global centre of tropical marine diversity, supporting the highest number of species of
coral reef fishes, demersal fishes, turtles, and algae. The mangrove forests, sea grass beds,
coral reefs, ~nd coastal and offshore waters are the most species-rich in the tropics. The
natural resources of these seas provide food and livelihoods for about 40 million people
living along the coastline of Sulu-Sulawesi Marine Eco-region (SSME).
2
Conference of the Parties of the Convention on Biological Diversity held in Kuala Lumpur,
Malaysia, and have subsequently developed a set of thematic action plans ("Threatened,
charismatic, and migratory species"; "Marine protected areas and networks"; "Sustainable
fisheries"). This proposed project will support implementation of the action plans in all three
countries involved.
The activities would be carried out by GIZ in partnership with Conservation International, in
Indonesia in cooperation with the Ministry of Marine Affairs and Fisheries.

Both governments intend to cooperate closely in order to ensure transparency,
accountability and probity in the use of public resources and eliminate any
opportunities which may exist for corrupt practices in their development
cooperation.
Transparency and accountability are vital to achieving development results and aid
effectiveness as enshrined in international declarations (Paris Declaration, Accra
Agenda for Action). Both delegations therefore agree that information on the agreed
goals, programs, activities and results of development spending and on the
conditions attached to the disbursement of funds may be published by both sides.
Until then, both sides agree to intensify the dialogue starting with the area of
Climate Change and Sustainable Devevlopment.

The Government of Indonesia decided to establish the Indonesia Climate Change Trust Fund
(ICCTF) to pool and coordinate funds from various sources such as international donors and
the private sector to finance Indonesia's climate change policies and programs and to ensu re
that international and private sector support is harmonized and aligned with national
development plans. To date, the innovation fund of the ICCTF is underway with three
thematic windows (land based mitigation, energy, and adaptation), the ICCTF secretariat is
operational, and first pilot projects are implemented. The planned private sector based
Transformation Fund is not yet developed, which would serve as an important catalyst for
enhanced investment by the private sector in mitigation actions. Despite the achievements,
needs for further design steps and capacity development were identified to fully live up to the
challenges, related to among others: national trustee, fiduciary standards, safeguards,
managing new public-private partnership mechanism as well as ensuring transparency and
accountability, developing efficient finance mechanism to channel funds to potential
mitigation actions and target different actors, to link international climate finance with national
budgets and to steer decisions about the most effective and efficient use of funds.
· The project aims at improvi ng the governance str\.lcture of the ICCTF so that it is managed
nationally and is ready to efficiently, effectively and transparently channel international funds
to support the implementation of nationally agreed mitigation actions by local governments,
civil society institutions and the private sector as outlined in the national action plan for GHG
emission reduction (RAN-GRK). To this end, the project support is structured into three as-
pects: a) To enhance capacities for effective financial governance according to international
fiduciary and MRV standards in the area of climate change mitigation in Indonesia; b) To
assist designing and developing a public finance mechanism for national and loca l action
plans for GHG mitigation through strengthen the ICCTF innovation fund;
c) Design and development of the ICCTF transformation fund for the private sector
participation, financing and implementation of actions.
The contribution of the project to reduce GHG em issions is indirect but provides important
preconditions for it, since the provision of adequate levels of funding and a sound f inancial
governance and result based monitoring system are crucial for the implementation of any
mitigation actipns and achieving reductions. When integrated into the mitigation policy
framework and equipped with efficient, reliable and transparent finance procedures and
systems, the financial mechanism (ICCTF) can contribute sign ificantly to up sca ling and
accounting of GHG mitigation actions and the achievement of the national GHG emission
reduction target of Indonesia.

The Government of Indonesia has decreed that greenhouse gas emissions should be re-
duced by 26% by 2020 out of national budgets ahd up to 41% with international support. This
decree (62/2011) is known as the Rencana Aksi Nasional Gas Rumah Kaca (RAN-
GRK/National Action Plan for Greenhouse Gas Reduction) . It is based on nationally appro-
priate mitigation action (NAMA). All 33 provinces must submit their own plans (RAD-GRK) to
contribute to the RAN-GRK, by September 2012. Each RAD-GRK has to include land-use
planning for low-emissions development that is inclusive, integrated and informed and which
contributes to achieving 7% annual economic growth.
To assist the Government, the GE-LAMA-1 project has specific objectives. Firstly, the align-
ment of local-level processes for planning and implementing reductions in em issions from the
land-based sector with national and international climate-change policies and institutional
arrangements is planned. Then, it is planned to develop and test a plann ing negotiation
methodology for low-emissions development that includes multiple environmental services
benefits. As a third point, the Government's capacity to plan low-emissions development in
local areas and at the national level will be strengthened.
The project will multiply benefits throughout Indonesia through recommendations to decision
makers, developing methods for land-use planners that guide low-emissions development
and building the capacity of planners at the local and national levels to submit fair and effi-
cient RAD-GRKs that will build a green economy.

Nationally Appropriate Mitigation Actions (NAMAs) are further strengthening the frameworks
for reducing greenhouse gases in developing countries. NAMAs help these countries move
away from their current carbon-intensive development path while simultaneously driving their
econom ic development. However, to carry out NAMAs, developing countries require
technical, financial, and technological support from industrialized countries .
The project is helping governments in five ambitious developing countries to further develop
their portfolio of NAMA proposals. In addition, it is working towards planning specific activities
and tapping financial sources for implementing them . Using numerous case studies, the
project is also analyzing instruments currently in place with regard to their design, financing,
and implementation, and is publishing studies on the experience gained. In Indonesia the
project is intended to cooperate with and support the Ministry of Energy and Mineral
Resources on developing a NAMA in the energy sector.
The project is helping the partner countries to design their NAMAs and pave the way for
implementation and external financing. At the same time, the structure of mitigation
instruments is being discussed at international climate negotiations. This enables the
acquired knowledge to be fed into international and national processes, thus driving them
forward. The standards that are to be established could serve as models for NAMA projects
worldwide.
The project has started in February 2012 with a scoping phase to identify appropriate coun-
tries for the implementation. These countries now have been identified.
A recent global analysis by WRI , IUCN, and partners found that more than 2 billion hectares
of deforested or degraded forest lands provide opportunities for "forest and landscape resto-
ration" (FLR). Obstacles, however, exist. Too few are aware of FLR opportunities and bene-
fits, enabling conditions are often missing, and local champions and capacity often need
strengthening.
As part of the Global Partnership on Forest Landscape Restoration (GPFLR), the project
tackles these obstacles with a goal of having at least 10 Mha of restoration being initiated in
5 countries (including Indonesia and Brazil) by 2017 as a new contribution to The Bonn Chal-
lenge.
The project will inspire awareness of and commitments to restoration via sustained commu-
nications efforts, a Global Restoration Council, and annual Restoration Awards - on a global
level. Further, it will support methods and measures that close gaps in enabling conditions
and capacity in order to advance FLR (global methods, applied in Indonesia and Brazil). A
third goal is to mobilize on-the-ground efforts by convening FLR champions (in Indonesia and
Brazil) and building capacity on a global level.
FLR can address climate change mitigation and adaptation in a unified approach, expand
biodiversity habitat, produce more food, create rural jobs, improve water supplies, and re-
duce erosion. The project will catalyze and support replication to advance an emerging, col-
laborative global movement for landscape restoration.
