Project description
Southeast Asia is one of the most vulnerable regions to the effects of climate change, and according to the Asian Development Bank, the region’s economy could shrink by 11% by the end of the century. Indonesia signed the Paris Agreement (PA) and is willing to become net zero by 20602. Despite recent progress, the country still lacks strategies to implement the goals of the Agreement. The proposed technical assistance will provide support for the whole consortium led by Perspectives Climate Research GmbH (PCR) and consisting of ICLEI - Local Governments for Sustainability, Indonesia (ICLEI Indonesia) and Thailand Greenhouse Gas Management Organization (TGO) in the development of an urban Article 6 pilot. The technical assistance provided by ICLEI WS will be based on its best practice and experience in Southeast Asia, with a focus on key Indonesian stakeholders and other international actors who play a critical role in the planning and implementation of climate mitigation and adaptation measures at the local level.
