Indonesia's Climate Change Overview and Commitments

Indonesia, the world’s fourth most populous country, faces significant climate challenges due to its geographical diversity, including vast tropical rainforests, extensive coastal regions, and vulnerability to natural disasters. The country is committed to balancing its development goals with climate resilience, aiming to reduce poverty and promote sustainable growth. With rising temperatures, coastal erosion, and recurrent natural calamities, climate change threatens both Indonesia’s economy and its communities.

In response, Indonesia has pledged to reduce its greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 29% unconditionally and up to 41% with international support by 2030. This is a core component of Indonesia’s Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC) under the Paris Agreement, which integrates climate adaptation and mitigation into the country’s development strategies. Indonesia has also implemented a carbon pricing mechanism, regulated under Presidential Regulation No. 98 of 2021, to support the NDC targets.

The strategic approach of Indonesia’s NDC is grounded in several key principles. First, Indonesia takes a landscape-scale approach, integrating terrestrial, coastal, and marine ecosystems into its climate strategies. Second, it highlights best practices from multi-stakeholder efforts, including the active participation of local communities, women, and civil society in managing forests and peatlands. Third, the country is mainstreaming climate change into its development and spatial planning processes to ensure sustainable progress. Indonesia also prioritizes climate resilience in food, water, and energy, with a focus on sustainable resource management.

To achieve its climate goals, Indonesia has established nine key programs, including building institutional capacity, engaging stakeholders across sectors, integrating mitigation and adaptation strategies into development planning, and monitoring progress towards NDC targets. These efforts underscore Indonesia’s commitment to transitioning towards a low-carbon, climate-resilient future.
