Advancing Environmental Sustainability
Promoting Sustainable Peat Ecosystems
KEMITRAAN is also partnering with
UNEP and Wageningen University from
the Netherlands to support peatlands
restoration in Indonesia. The project seeks
to enhance the sustainable use of natural
resources and food security through
improving peatland governance and
promoting sustainable peatland business
activities to reduce peat fires.
Throughout the project, KEMITRAAN
implemented institutional design process
in 3 (three) Peat Hydrological Units (PHUS),
aimed at reaching consensus on peatland
management with and among stakeholders
and mapping traditional governance
by coordinating through Desa Peduli
Gambut (Care for Peat Village program)
conducted by KEMITRAAN to support
the Peatlands Restoration Agency (BRG).
This project also developed land and peat
use scenarios with stakeholders and link
these to the Ministry of Environment and
Forestry and BRG's peatland scenario
and lessons learnt from their ongoing
and completed activities. The LANDSKAP
Project produced a knowledge base for
peatland management (Peat Hydrological
Unit) to permit evidence-based decision
making, following an account approach
(NCA), involving ecosystem accounts with
condition, extent, service and enforcement
of peat management regulations and
opportunities for better peat management.

On climate change adaptation
KEMITRAAN has maintained its
close partnership with support of the
Adaptation Fund with the authorities
and community of Pekalongan City on
the north coast of Central Java. Many
communities of this city already face the
challenge of frequent tidal flooding.
The problems impact on people's health
and their quality of life, particularly
among the youth as the future
leaders. Therefore, it is crucial to raise
awareness of climate change to the
local youth.

On December 6-7, 2021 KEMITRAAN
initiated the screening of the movie
Semesta in Pekalongan. The event was
attended by around 200 youth from
all over the city. The movie captured
the story of seven people from seven
different provinces in Indonesia that
help fight climate change based upon
their customary behavior and faith.
Following the film's screening, the
audience discussed what they could
do to combat climate change. This
activity has served as a catalyst for
future initiatives by KEMITRAAN aimed
at getting local youth involved in climate
change
The mayor of Pekalongan City, HA Afzan Arslan
MUDA Djunaid, attended the first day of the movie screening and
stated, "This climate crisis awareness activity for the youth
is critical in supporting the Pekalongan City Government's
efforts. We sincerely hope that the youth of Pekalongan will
start to act with climate change adaptation initiatives. The
future of Pekalongan city is in their hands!"
