[newdevjobsindo] GIZ Indonesia for the Special Assignment Urban Development Cluster anchored to InCircular Project: Advisor for Extended Producer Responsibility

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. GIZ has been working in Indonesia since 1975 on behalf of the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ). 

Circular Economy with the focus on solid waste management is one of the key priorities of the Indonesian German development cooperation. GIZ implements Circular Economy measures as topics within the clusters “Urban Development” and “ASEAN”. 

The project “InCircular: Promoting a Circular Economy in Indonesia” (awaiting to be) commissioned by the German Federal Ministry of Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) will be supporting the Indonesian Ministry for National Development Planning (Bappenas) and further relevant ministries, agencies and the private sector to implement the national Circular Economy Strategy and Action Plan. Three material streams are of particular focus, namely packaging waste (plastics, aluminium, paper, etc.), electronic waste and residual waste (to be potentially used as refuse-derived fuel (RDF)). The project aims to address 5 outputs, namely 1) Support the steering of the implementation of the CE Roadmap and Action Plan; 2) Enhance regulatory frameworks for CE and EPR for selected material streams; 3) Strengthen collaboration with industry for the implementation of CE and EPR for selected material streams; 4) Advance CE in waste management in selected provinces and municipalities and 5) Advance Green/Sustainable Public Procurement (G/SPP) for selected goods. 

At the same time, Indonesia is a key member of ASEAN and plays an important role in regional initiatives. As the largest country in the region by population and one of the most advanced in terms of CE policy development, Indonesia has the potential to influence regional agenda by addressing transboundary challenges such as waste management, marine litter, and the promotion of a CE which require concerted efforts. Thus, leveraging Indonesia's experiences, can create synergies to align its national initiatives with ASEAN’s regional priorities in CE. 

In this reference, the service packages from regional and global projects complement the bilateral project and will be implemented in an integrated approach capitalizing on cross cluster alliance and expertise. 

The announced position will also support regional projects, such as the planned second phase of "Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle to Protect the Marine Environment" (3RproMar II), to leverage synergies between both initiatives and providing partners with a cohesive and integrated approach. 

To support this project, GIZ is currently recruiting one (1) Indonesian candidate for the following position:
