Indonesia is uniquely positioned to lead on nature-based solutions, with its vast peatlands and mangrove ecosystems offering critical opportunities to achieve Indonesia’s FOLU Net Sink 2030 ambition. Policies to protect forests in Indonesia also reflect the continuous evolution of natural resource management paradigms. In 2024, Indonesia’s Biodiversity Strategy and Action Plan 2025-2045 identified biodiversity credits as another financing tool to be explored. Currently, the Forestry Ministry is working on a scheme to open restoration business concessions in degraded conservation areas, granting businesses rights to manage them for 30 years or more. With these policies laying the foundation for accelerating ecosystem restoration at scale, there is fresh impetus for agribusiness and forestry companies to join hands with NGOs and local communities to protect and restore natural capital. This talkshow will explore how strategic partnerships and innovative financing mechanisms for restoration and conservation, including blended finance and carbon markets, are supporting Indonesia’s ambitious climate and nature goals.
