The Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH is an international cooperation enterprise for sustainable development with worldwide operations. Its corporate objective is to improve people's living conditions on a sustainable basis.
In the context of the bilateral cooperation between the Government of Germany and the Government of Indonesia, GIZ has received a new commission from the Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) on Adaptive Social Protection (ASP)/Integrated Solutions in Disaster Risk Management and Social Protection.
The ASP aims to provide integrated solutions to improve the crisis response capacity and long-term adaptation of poor population groups to climate change by linking social protection instruments with disaster management and climate adaptation approaches. By improving the protection of poor people and those at risk of poverty against climate-related shocks, it contributes to reducing the poverty rate (programme objective indicator 1). Incentive systems and financing mechanisms for forest protection and environmental services are being tested with the development of support approaches for adapting livelihoods to climate change in the project provinces (programme objective indicator 2).
The TC module is in line with the BMZ core thematic strategy "Health, Social Protection and Population Policy". It contributes to the implementation of the "Social protection" field of action, which is committed to establishing universal, inclusive and adaptive social protection systems in partner countries in order to strengthen the population's resilience to individual life risks and collective crises and in future also increasingly to the consequences of climate change.
The political partner of the project is the National Authority for Disaster Management (BNPB). The project implementation is planned to be decentralised in 2 (two) regions, West Nusa Tenggara (NTB) and South Kalimantan (Banjarmasin). To achieve the module objectives, the Ministry of Finance (MoF), various directorates of the Ministry of Development and Planning (BAPPENAS), the Ministry of Village (MoV), the Ministry of Home Affairs (MoHA), and the Ministry of Housing and Public Works (MoPUPR) engage as the implementing partners.
