ADVANCING ENVIRONMENTAL
SUSTAINABILITY
22
Through a variety of initiatives,
projects, and policy forums, KEMITRAAN
continues its long-standing work in 2021
to advance environmental governance
changes and the economic empowerment
of marginal communities that depend
on the forest. In part, as a reflection of
this experience KEMITRAAN re-secured
its accreditation to two key international
environmental funding programs,
namely the Green Climate Fund and the
Adaptation Fund, the first Indonesian
institution to do so.
The Glasgow Climate Pact and the
Paris Rulebook were two of the more
notable outcomes of the COP summit held
in Glasgow in late 2021. There were also
new steps forward focused on reducing
emissions of methane and the agreement
to transition towards zero emissions

automobiles. This latter development
will be very important in further boosting
Indonesia's efforts to promote the
manufacturing and utilization of electric
vehicles.
The commitment by 137 nations,
including Indonesia, to stop and reverse
forest loss and land degradation by
2030 was of special relevance to
KEMITRAAN's activities in the forestry and
related sectors. As well as pledges from
investment firms to stop funding ventures
connected to deforestation. All these
steps, while positive, nonetheless do not
represent sufficient results to ensure global
warming can be contained to 1.5 degrees
Celsius above pre-industrial levels. Much
more work must be undertaken to raise the
impact of agreements.
