Indonesia Facing Climate Change: Project Summary and Policy Brief

Abstract

A comprehensive guide book on Indonesia’s response to climate change has not been available until now. The idea of producing such a guidebook was born from the realisation that all governments need to develop a coordinated and holistic approach now, as well as build strong partnerships with civil society and private sector actors. With the support of the Minister for Environment and Forestry, the honourable Ms. Siti Nurbaya Bakar, an editorial team was established, and numerous teams of authors with outstanding and complementary expertise created to represent major government divisions, research centres, NGOs and businesses in Indonesia that are prominently involved in shaping the national response to climate change.
