Context of

Indonesia is
the third largest emitter of CO2 and the world’s largest emitter from
agriculture, forestry and other land use. Over the past five years, Indonesia’s
annual deforestation rate has averaged around 1 million hectares which
contributes more than 80 percent of Indonesia’s estimated annual emissions.
In this
contexts, on May 26, 2010 the Governments of Indonesia and the Kingdom of
Norway signed a Letter of Intent to establish a Partnership for REDD+ (Reducing
Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation) to tackle greenhouse gas
emissions from deforestation and forest and peat land degradation. REDD+ is a
global mechanism which provides an opportunity for developing countries like
Indonesia to move towards a sustainable green economy. For Indonesia it also
offers a way to achieve the Indonesian government’s voluntary commitment to the
world to reduce emissions as much as 26 percent or up to 41 percent with
international support by 2020.
The first
phase of this Partnership for REDD+ is to establish an institution capable of
good governance of forest and peat land to reduce deforestation and
degradation. A Task Force (Satgas) has been establishment to facilitate the
setting-up of this REDD+ Institution. Working Groups (WGs) have been formed to
assist in developing a legal blanket for the institution, financial mechanisms,
and independent monitoring, reporting and verification (MRV) systems. Other WGs
have been established to assist in communications, stakeholder engagement,
REDD+ harmonization with national and sub-national development and education
programmes, and pilot and priority programmes in the field.
The
implementation of REDD+ will be an important step in the development of a green
economy, and an opportunity to reform forest and peat land governance across
