Indonesia: National action plan for addressing climate change 2007

This National Action Plan is a dynamic policy instrument that will therefore periodically need evaluation, renewal and improvement, in response to the dynamic of climate change. It serves as a guide for all sectors, in the centre and the regions, in implementing development, now and in the future. Because of this the National Action Plan must be incorporated into the Long Term Development Action Plan 2005-2025 and the Medium Term Development Action Plan.

The objective of the National Action Pla in formulating a National Action Plan to address climate change is for it to be used as guidance to various institutions in carrying out a coordinated and integrated effort to tackle climate change. Addressing the impact of climate change should not be conducted by a few sectors only. Good coordination between sectors is essential to ensure the success of climate change mitigation and adaptation efforts in Indonesia. Climate change and its impacts are complex and dynamic problems. The National Action Plan must therefore be continuously evaluated and improved periodically by various stakeholders.
