Indonesia's impressive socio-economic development over the past two decades has brought with it a substantial negative impact on the environment. The continuing lack of urban infrastructure leads to widespread congestion, excessive pressure on electricity and water supplies and causes significant environmental impacts and further increased of emissions due to pollution in urban areas. The profound need for further policy reforms and increased investment in urban infrastructure to improve the provision of public services, reduce pollution and reduce CO2 emissions will be medium-term development plan for the years 2020-2024.
Against this background, the German Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) and the Indonesian Ministry for National Development Planning (BAPPENAS) during the bilateral Government Negotiations in 2019 it was agreed to launch the Indonesian - German Green Infrastructure Initiative (GII) as a Financial Cooperation (FC) facility of up to 2.5 billion EUR (via subsidized development loans) to support environment- and climate-relevant infrastructure projects in the areas of green urban development.
The bilateral Technical Cooperation (TC) Module "Green Infrastructure Development in Indonesia" (GID) constitutes an integral part of the Indonesian - German Green Infrastructure Initiative. The TC Module was designed in the framework of an appraisal mission between April and July 2020 led by the Coordinating Ministry of Maritime Affairs and Investments (CMMAI) and conducted by GIZ-experts and consultants, in close cooperation with the German Development Bank KfW. It was agreed that the sector focus for cooperation are Solid Waste Management, Urban Water and Wastewater Management as well as Local Public Transport.
CMMAI is the main counterpart for GIZ, while Bappenas, the Ministry of Transport, the Ministry of Public Works and Housing as well as the Committee for the Acceleration of Priority Infrastructure (KPPIP) and six Provincial Governments are the main operational partners.
The German Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development has commissioned GIZ with the implementation of the project on 11 November 2020. The TC Module aims to achieve the following Outputs:
Output 1: Strengthening the capacities of CMMAI and KPPIP (national level) with regard to the selection and prioritisation of environment- and/or climate-relevant infrastructure projects
Output 2: Identification and preliminary assessment of ca. 18 potentially bankable environment- and/or climate-relevant infrastructure projects, based on a long list of ca. 50 project ideas/concepts, in coordination with relevant stakeholders on national, provincial, regency and/ or city levels.
The first stage of implementation will take place at the following provinces that have been selected by the Steering Committee namely West Java, Central Java, East Java, Bali, Yogyakarta and East Nusa Tenggara.
