Community Discussion
The election of Minister of Finance Sri Mulyani Indrawati as co-chair of the Global Coalition of Finance Ministers for Climate Change 2021-2023 affirms the great confidence of the global climate change action community in Indonesia.

In the past decade, the world has seen Indonesia"s strong efforts and commitment in controlling climate change through various policies and instruments. For example, the policies and instruments related to funding such as the allocation of the State Budget for climate change (budget tagging) and the establishment of the Environmental Fund Management Agency (BPDLH). BPDLH is in charge of managing various forestry-related funds, such as energy and mineral resources, carbon and energy trading, and other environmentally related resources in various ministries/institutions.

In line with the strategic role in the coalition, the mainstreaming issue of climate change in the national development programs is in line with efforts to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in accordance with the nationally determined contribution (NDC). Indonesia"s NDC commitment to the Paris Agreement is 29% on its own or 41% with international support by 2030.

One of the efforts to reduce carbon emissions is by rehabilitation and utilization of wetlands such as peat forests, mangroves, and seagrass fields scattered in a number of forests and coastal throughout the archipelago.
