Abstract:
Indonesia has made a serious
commitment to reduce emissions in order
to mitigate global climate change. This commitment
has been taken up in national level policies and by
other parties through a series of efforts towards emission
reduction targets. The land-based sector provides the
greatest potential for reducing emissions in Indonesia.
Considering the large geographic coverage and the range
of land use policies and allocations across administrative
hierarchies in the country, potential emission reductions
from the land use sector are implemented at the subnational
levels of province and district (kabupaten). In
Indonesia, the National Action Plan for Greenhouse Gas
Emission (RAN GRK) and REDD+ is translated into the
Regional Action Plan (RAD GRK) and the Provincial
Strategies and Action Plan for REDD + (Strategi dan
Rencana Aksi Provinsi - SRAP REDD+) at the provincial
level as systematic initiatives of the emission reduction
effort. Due to the principle of subnational autonomy
in which development programs reside at the district
(kabupaten) level, it is highly relevant that initiatives at
the provincial level be translated into action plans at the
district level.
