Rationale behind the Establishment National Background Vulnerability to the negative impacts of climate change Though Indonesia is not mandatory for GHG emission reduction, climate change is a reality and urgent actions on adaptation and mitigation is required as an integral part of the development challenge facing the nation Mitigation and adaptation actions have to be taken jointly by all countries. Indonesia is ready to cooperate both bilaterally and multilaterally with international efforts. International Background UNFCC 1992, Article 3.4 incorporate climate change into national development planning; Article 4.1 underlines the needs of all countries to develop specific national development priorities and objectives accordance to principles of common but differentiated responsibilities Kyoto Protocol to UNFCCC 1998 states emission reduction is binding for developed countries. Bali Action Plan 2007 includes the request for developed countries to contribute to mitigation of global warming in the sustainable development context and envisages enhanced actions on adaptation, technology development and on the provision financial resources and measures against deforestation

Policy Documents on Climate Change (1) PolicyContent Long-Term Development Plan (RPJPN) In order to achieve the vision of sustainable development, the GoI concluded that "the long term sustainability of development will face the challenges of climate change and global warming which affect activities and livelihood". National Action Plan on Climate Change (RAN-MAPI), 2007 Initial guidance for a multi-sectoral coordination effort designed to address jointly the challenges of mitigation and adaptation to climate change National Development Planning: Indonesian Responses to Climate Change (Yellow Book), It was intended to strengthen and reinforce the RPJMN (National Medium-Term Development Plan) as well as to include inputs that can guide the integration of considerations of climate change into the preparation of RPJMN Medium-Term Development Plan (RPJMN) It emphasizes 11 national priorities, which 3 of them (food security, energy, and environment and disaster management) are strongly related to climate change. Indonesia Climate Change Sectoral Roadmap (ICCSR), 2010 A roadmap to serve as a detailed policy guidance and in order to mainstream climate change issues into national development planning. Presidential Regulation No.61/2011 regarding National Action Plan on GHG Emission Reduction (RAN-GRK), 2011 National action plan for mitigation to achieve the national targets of emission reduction (-26% and -41% of the BAU scenario until 2020). It contains policy directions and actions for mitigation in 5 sectors and constitutes important guidance for channeling financial flows into national and local mitigation programs.  Local Action Plan on GHG Emission Reduction at provincial level

Policy Documents on Climate Change (2) PolicyContent Presidential Regulation No.71/2011 regarding National GHG Inventory System, 2011 Regular information on the level, status and trend of GHG emission change and absorption, including national, and subnational carbon stock as well as GHG emission reduction. Presidential Instruction No. 10/2011 on Forest Moratorium, 2011 Development of REDD+ schemes including Indicative Moratorium maps Presidential Decree No. 25/2011 on National Task Force for REDD+, 2011 REDD+ agency and related institutional development (finance and MRV) In addition to that, also Government regulation on trust fund Presidential Regulation No.80/2011 regarding Trust Fund, 2011 Establishment, structure and operation of a trust fund
