Consultant team: Sri Handayani Lailly Prihatiningtyas Semerdanta Pusaka STOCKTAKING REPORT 2019 4 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Low Carbon Development Initiative Having achieved notable economic and social progress throughout the past decade, Indonesia still has to face many structural challenges such as deterioration of natural resources, ecological degradation, and growing income inequalities. To tackle these issues and to attain sustainable development growth, the Government of Indonesia (GoI) has been working progressively on Low Carbon Development Initiative (LCDI) policy ever since it was initiated during the UNFCCC COP 23 in 2017. LCDI aims to explicitly incorporate the environmental considerations (carbon emissions reduction targets and carrying capacity) into the national development-planning. Under the mandate of the Law 32/2009 on Environmental Protection and Management and its operational guidelines of Government Regulation (PP) 46/2016 on Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA), the Government of Indonesia through BAPPENAS, has conducted the SEA by assessing policies, plans, and/or programs with respect to the environmental conditions as part of development of the National Medium-Term Development Plan (RPJMN) 2020-2024. The process was carried out by applying system dynamics modelling, a planning tool that allows simultaneous assessment of social, environmental and economic impacts in various development scenarios into its strategic planning. During LCDI Phase 1, the system dynamics modelling exercise produced Low Carbon Development scenarios that will be integrated in the RPJMN 2020-2024, which will guide Indonesia’s development to transition towards a low carbon pathway. The policy scenarios developed by the model produced favorable results such as: · Achievement of Indonesia’s NDC targets by yielding emission reduction up to 43 % by 2030 and emission intensity reduction up to 51% by 2045. · Facilitation of 6% of GDP growth per year between 2019-2045. · Increased employment by provision of 15,3 million additional jobs by 2045. · Promotion of renewable energy by targeting a 30 % share of biofuels in the transportation sector to substitute fossil fuel demand. This in turn will provide fiscal savings up to nearly 120 billion US$ (0.54 % of GDP) by 2045 from the reduced oil subsidies. · Transition towards renewable energy by scaling up its contribution up to 30% by 2045 and decrease of energy intensity up to 4,5% by 2045. · Full enforcement of forest, palm oil, mining, and peat land moratorium to preserve 41.1 million ha of primary forest, which includes 15 million ha of peat land; while also abiding to committed water, fisheries, and biodiversity targets. STOCKTAKING REPORT 2019 5 The above policy scenarios indicate how implementation of LCDI could deliver immediate gains for the economy, for people and for the local and global environment. However, several challenges exist that might hinder a fast and effective implementation of LCDI within the national and sub-national level. Notable challenges include the absence of an appropriate coordinating mechanism for regulatory and operational procedures; the need of high engagement and communication with stakeholders from public and non-public sectors; the sectoral and silo-based institutional setting doubled with sectoral regulation which may hinder the mobilization, coordination, monitoring, and evaluation efforts during the implementation phase; the absence of a reliable and integrated database system; lack of personnel competencies, especially those related to the system dynamic modelling; and the finance and investment gap which requires the formulation of resource mobilization mechanisms and strategies to mobilize financial resources from the state budget, private sector, as well as international funds. With the aforementioned condition, the LCDI Phase 2 will be focused on translating the LCDI policy into programmatic activities with twofold objectives; the first is to address challenges in LCDI Phase 1 in order to support LCDI model development for next RPJMN, and second is to support the implementation of LCDI development scenarios by involving multi-stakeholders, improving the integrated Monitoring, Evaluation and Reporting system, strengthening communication and replicating the LCD model at the sub-national level. Moreover, in the implementation process, since LCDI model serves as an overarching framework, it requires active participation and engagement of state actors within national and sub-national level, as well as non-state actors including the private sector and development partners. Figure 1. LCDI Phase 2 Framework the Government of Indonesia (GoI)’s priority sectors for the LCDI Phase 2 are energy, industry, agriculture, forestry & peat (land-use), blue carbon (mangrove, seagrass), and waste. STOCKTAKING REPORT 2019 6 Based on the assessment with respect to the economic, social, and environmental profiles of Indonesia; as well as the mapping of currently enacted policies and governance structure; to achieve its objective, it is considered best to align the PAGE Indonesia workplan with implementation of the LCDI Phase 2 framework. The framework provides avenue in bringing out collaborative effort to promote and support inclusive green economy interventions and program within National and Sub-National level as illustrated in Figure 1. In addition, the framework is in accordance with the GoI development policy agenda and commitment as it is also interlinked with the RPJMN. This Stocktaking

  • Soil Conservation and Poverty: Lessons from Upland Indonesia
    Society and Natural Resources, Volume 7, pp. 429-443 0894-1920/94 $10.00+ .00 Printed in the UK. All rights reserved. Copyright © 1994 Taylor & Francis Soil Conservation and Poverty: Lessons from Upland Indonesia JILL M. BELSKY Department of Sociology University of Montana Missoula, Montana, USA Soil conservation efforts in Indonesia since the Dutch colonial era have focused on in- troducing bench terraces—a costly soil conservation method for poor, upland farm- ers. Data from two villages in the Kerinci uplands of Sumatra illustrate that even with state underwriting of bench terrace construction, farmers across all economic strata still resist using this method. Why the state has not pursued alternative soil conserva- tion approaches—especially ones that entail the "conservation farming " approach and that can better build upon the diversity of upland farming systems—is discussed in the context of the state's emphasis on productivist and commodity-led agricultural development and on broader geopolitical institutions and forces that perpetuate this approach. Given these constraints, state underwriting of soil conservation for poor farmers (i.e., providing "landesque capital" in Blaikie and Brookfield's 1987 termi- nology) suggests undue hope through economic remedies and the ability of the state to implement environmental and social reform, especially to benefit the poor. Keywords Indonesia, political ecology, political economy, poverty, soil conserva- tion, terraces Since the Dutch colonial era, soil conservation efforts in upland Indonesia have empha- sized the introduction of bench terraces. However, the long-term use of agricultural ter- racing by dryland farmers on sloping lands in Indonesia (as well as throughout Southeast Asia) has been varied and often hotly contested (Pelzer, 1945; Chapman, 1975).

  • Meijer Biological University Lexington Dealing Species General Piece
    429 FLORA MALESIANA BULLETIN 9/4 (1987) XIV. Key to the Sumatran species of Red Meranti (Shorea subgen. Rubroshorea) based on vegetative characters Yusuf Jafarsidik & W. Meijer Forest Research Institute, Bogor School of Biological Sciences Indonesia University of Kentucky Lexington KY 40506, U.S.A. Red merantis (Shorea subgen. Rubroshorea) are the most important commercial trees of the Dipterocarpaceae. In Sumatra at least 23 of the 55 species of Shorea belong to this group. Other groups are the Yellow merantis, White merantis, and the Meranti balau. We here give a key to the Red merantis based on characters of bark, twigs, and leaves. Some information on the distribution of the species in and outside the island has been added. We have found it difficult with the data available in the published record to make distributions as detailed as possible. Desch (1936, 1941) and Symington (1943) have divided Shorea Gaertn. into four groups based on timber and field characters, respectively. These groups were treated as subgenera by Meijer (1963), who gave the name Rubroshorea to the most the well-known group of Red Meranti. Anatomical studies by Gottwald and Parames- waran (1966) have confirmed the soundness of this classification. Before we can use these keys we have to be sure of course that we are dealing with a species of Shorea. In general we will find damar on the boles of the trees and in a small cross-section of a piece of timber we can see the tangential lines of the resin canals. Trees are never stilt-rooted or provided with flying buttresses, as in some species of Hopea.

    Indonesia (Republic of) Last updated: 31-01-2004 Location and area Indonesia is an island republic and largest nation of South East Asia, stretching across some 5,000 km and with a north-south spread of about 2,000 km. The republic shares the island of Borneo with Malaysia and Brunei Darussalam; Indonesian Borneo, equivalent to about 75 per cent of the island, is called Kalimantan. The western half of New Guinea is the Indonesian province of Irian Jaya (formerly West Irian); the eastern half is part of Papua New Guinea. The marine frontiers of Indonesia include the South China Sea, the Celebes Sea, and the Pacific Ocean to the north, and the Indian Ocean to the south and west. Indonesia has a land area of 1,904,443 km2. (Microsoft Encarta Encyclopedia 2002). According to Geoanalytics (www.geoanalytics.com/bims/bims.htm) the land area of Indonesia comprises 1,919,663 km2. Topography Indonesia comprises 13,677 islands on both sides of the equator, 6,000 of which are inhabited. Kalimantan and Irian Jaya, together with Sumatra (also called Sumatera), Java (Jawa), and Celebes (Sulawesi) are the largest islands and, together with the insular provinces of Kalimantan and Irian Jaya, account for about 95 per cent of its land area. The smaller islands, including Madura, Timor, Lombok, Sumbawa, Flores, and Bali predominantly form part of island groups. The Moluccas (Maluku) and the Lesser Sunda Islands (Nusatenggara) are the largest island groups. The Java, Flores, and Banda seas divide the major islands of Indonesia into two unequal strings. The comparatively long, narrow islands of Sumatra, Java, Timor (in the Nusatenggara group), and others lie to the south; Borneo, Celebes, the Moluccas, and New Guinea lie to the north.
