The world stands at a critical juncture in the global climate agenda, with the outcomes of the Global Stocktake (GST) underscoring the urgent need for enhanced ambition and accelerated implementation. Indonesia, as a megadiverse and climate-vulnerable country, has taken significant steps to align its national policies with the goals of the Paris Agreement. Through the Presidential Regulation on Carbon Economic Value, the Enhanced NDC, and the Long-Term Strategy for Low Carbon and Climate Resilience (LTS-LCCR 2050), Indonesia has positioned itself as a proactive player in the global effort to limit warming to 1.5°C.
This Ministerial Session brings together high-level leaders from Indonesia, the United Kingdom, Norway, and Japan as key partner countries to share insights on designing and implementing inclusive, integrated, and actionable climate policies. The session will explore how climate action can be mainstreamed across energy, forestry, finance, and development planning sectors while ensuring equity, justice, and multi-stakeholder engagement.
The dialogue will also highlight the role of international cooperation in supporting nationally determined transitions, including through carbon markets, climate finance, technology transfer, and capacity building. In particular, lesson learnt from countries that have developed carbon pricing mechanisms such as carbon taxes and emissions trading systems (ETS) to combat climate change will enrich expected outputs of the dialogue. The existing partnerships are also expected to enhance into higher level phase of cooperation, to become more advanced and impactful benefits for countries. By convening ministerial voices from the Global North and South, this session aims to foster
