The Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH is an international cooperation enterprise for sustainable development with worldwide operations on behalf of the German Government. We work to shape a future worth living in over 120 countries around the world.
GIZ leads the consortia of six organisations to implement the global project "Innovation Regions for a Just Energy Transition (IKI-JET)", funded by the International Climate Initiative of the German Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Actions (BMWK). The project contributes to a just transition of the energy sector in selected developing countries and emerging economies, including Indonesia, for which GIZ partners with the Indonesian Ministry for National Development Planning (BAPPENAS). The project's Indonesian component supports the local governments and other stakeholders in two coal-dependent regions (i.e., East Kalimantan and South Sumatra) to transition towards more sustainable economies fairly by achieving the following results:
- Output-4: Informed social dialogue and stakeholder engagement on just energy transition in coal regions takes place in Regional Consultation Forums;
- Output-5: Policy advice to improve the policy framework for just energy transition, including gender aspects, is fed into respective policy processes;
- Output-6: Transformational measures to support the JET on coal regions are rolled out.
