In terms of utilizing DID funds for MPAs (design, development, establishment and effective
management), there are options to explore to ensure conservation areas are recognized as
suitable for use of the funds. MPA related indicators could be added into the independent
performance category for consideration (under ‘Processes’); the establishment of MPAs to
support community welfare could be added to the ‘Output’ category (as a form of public service),
or the impacts of MPAs on sustainable livelihoods could be added to the ‘Outcome’ category.

nations have started to consider, with successful implementation already taking place in Brazil
and Portugal.
In Indonesia, studies have been undertaken into its potential application as a mechanism to
ensure funds can be made available and targeted directly to support the preservation of the
environment and ecosystem services while optimizing regional and local income streams27
and maintain the integrity of ecological processes vital for human health and well-being. It
recognizes there is a considerable cost associated with effective conservation management,
but that the value of dividends and outputs are greater in terms of ensuring the maintenance
and sustainability of national heritage and resources for livelihoods, industries and fundamental
natural services.
Successful implementation of an EFT approach requires tailoring to local conditions, and to that
end the most appropriate mechanism for advancing an EFT approach in Indonesia is through

broader spectrum, this mechanism also provides an effective formula for provinces, districts and
municipalities to distribute their funds based on performance.

transportation systems are resulting in increasing levels of CO2 emissions and environmental
degradation. Air quality in the nations’ major cities is becoming untenable, and failures in
in 2015, with Indonesia committing to reduce GHG by 29 percent if self-funded (i.e. through state
/ regional budgets), or up to 41 percent if assisted by international funding.
These commitments were further reinforced in 2017, when the Government of Indonesia
announced a goal of integrating climate action into the country’s development agenda. To achieve
this, the Low Carbon Development Initiative (LCDI) was launched through the Ministry of National
Development Planning (Bappenas) aiming to identify policies that maintain economic growth,
alleviate poverty, and help meet sector-level development targets while simultaneously helping
Indonesia to achieve its climate objectives and to preserve and improve the country’s natural
resources.
The Low Carbon Development Strategy (Pembangunan Rendah Karbon - PRK) produced through
this initiative found29 that a low carbon growth path can deliver an average increased GDP growth
rate of 6 percent annually (to 2045) as well as unlock an array of additional economic, social,
and by reducing carbon and energy intensity, Indonesia’s total GHG emissions can be reduced
by 43 percent by 2030 (surpassing Indonesia’s existing maximal target). However, effectively
transitioning to a low-carbon development trajectory and overall green economy as outlined in
the PRK can only be achieved if these goals are effectively integrated and internalized in all
relevant planning processes (and is no longer a stand-alone policy).
This is starting to gain traction, with the inclusion of the green economy strategies and policies in
the National Medium-Term Development Plan (RPJMN) 2020-2024, including policies to reduce

However, as section AoW 1 (integrated planning) has outlined, there are range of challenges
related to planning processes and budgeting regimes that need to be overcome in Indonesia. In
order to address some of these challenges in relation to incorporating climate change mitigation
and adaptation strategies into planning, the government of Indonesia introduced a Climate Budget
Tagging (CBT) approach in 2016. This is a mechanism for monitoring and tracking climate-related
Funds that support the sustainable management of natural resources, climate change resilience,
green tourism and other sustainability initiatives are all eligible for CBT tagging (as well as
associated green bonds, see box 7). To date the Ministry of Public Works and Housing has been
the largest recipient of CBT funds (54 to 95 percent of all allocations from 2016 to 2018), while
MMAF has only had 0.01 percent allocation over this time.
Moving forward, the integration of PRK strategies into regional, as well as national planning, and
the “tagging” of environmental management efforts (CBT) regionally as well as nationally, could
leverage increased funds to support MMAF, MPAs and associated environmental management
efforts across Indonesia.

The scale of the marine and coastal environment in Indonesia is vast. The archipelago is host to
more than 17,000 islands and over two-thirds of the nations’ territory is water, covering nearly 6
million km2. Supporting marine and coastal management at this scale is challenging, particularly
This recognition is further endorsed by ‘blue economy’ principles that acknowledge: (i) the
overall contribution of the oceans to economies, (ii) the need to address the environmental and
ecological sustainability of the oceans, and (iii) the ocean economy as a growth opportunity
for both developed and developing countries. Utilizing market-based mechanisms to leverage
Several mechanisms exist, or are in stages of development, to enable the acquisition and utilization
of non-state funding. These have been supported through law (UU) no. 32/2009 concerning
Environmental Protection and Management (tentang Perlindungan dan Pengelolaan Lingkungan
Hidup - PPLH) as well as through the technical stipulations outlined in Government Regulation
(PP) no. 46/2017 concerning Environmental Economic Instruments (tentang Instrumen Ekonomi
Lingkungan Hidup - IELH). These regulations, amongst others, have provided an opportunity for
the government to diversify environmental funding through various sources, including private
sector support, international funding, capital markets and insurance markets.

Work Training Center (Pusat Pelatihan Kerja – PPK / PPKD), and to generate and utilize non-state
funding sources. These funding sources may include unrestricted grants (operational income),
restricted grants (income treated in accordance with its designation), revenues generated from
the delivery of services, cooperation with other parties and other legal income. The Blu / BLUD

Such bonds could also support marine-related infrastructure development and could be
synergized with other sectors that are considered to have a positive impact for the development
of sustainable ocean industries; such as the development of marine-based education curriculum
and marine-related Medium-Small Micro Enterprises (MSMEs).
Green bonds come with tax incentives such as exemptions and credits, making them a
more attractive investment compared to taxable bonds. These tax advantages provide
a monetary incentive to tackle prominent social issues such as climate change and a
movement to renewable sources of energy.
The first official green bond was issued by the World Bank in 2009. In 2018, Indonesia
issued its first Green Bond, investing a value of $1.25 billion USD (IDR 16.75 trillion) by
the end of 2018.

A public–private partnership (PPP) is a cooperative arrangement between the public and private
sectors, typically of a long-term nature. PPP arrangements involve government(s) and business(es)
to advance infrastructure projects, such as the building and equipping of schools, hospitals,
transport systems, and water and sewerage systems.
In recent years however, the concept of PPP has expanded to wider sectors, including the
management of protected areas (both terrestrial and marine). In the marine realm, such
arrangements generally involve a partnership between the MPA management unit / lead
agency, and a private sector entity. Most commonly, MPAs attract partnerships with ecotourism
enterprises; and the partnership arrangements are tailored to the site. Internationally, such

In October 2019 the government launched the Indonesian Environmental Estate Fund (Badan
Pengelola Dana Lingkungan Hidup – BPDLH) based on the mandate of Presidential Regulation
(PerPres)77 of 2018 on Management of Environmental Funds (Pengelolaan Dana Lingkungan
Hidup - PDLH). This fund acts as a trust for the management of funds related to environmental
protection and conservation, with the intention to support community-based environmental
recovery efforts.
Through this mechanism it will be possible to raise funds, collect funds and channel funds to a
range of environmental initiatives, including those related to marine and coastal management.
Funds can be collected from a wide range of sources, including State / Regional budgets
(APBN / APBD), international grants, and private funds from Corporate Social Responsibility
(CSR) contributions.

MARINE PROTECTED AREAS VISION 2030
Present Condition
Achieving GOI’s twin goals of improved MPA management effectiveness and expansion of MPAs
requires coordinated mechanisms for key stakeholders to communicate, share information and
support timely decision-making and engagement.
From 2004 to 2012, the National Marine Conservation Commission (Komisi Nasional Konservasi
Laut - Komnasko Laut), provided guidance for communicating the GOI’s policies and goals (see
box 8). Since this platform ceased, the only open source of MPA data is the MMAF managed MPA
technical database.
While some MPA data sets and published studies can be accessed directly (upon request) from
owner researchers or organizations, and / or may be available through organizations’ institutio-
nal web platforms, there is no clearinghouse for Indonesian MPA data or publications and no
centralized portal for information access.
Awareness-raising materials for a general audience are also lacking. Most information about
material. Online communication products that are available for a general audience (such as
posters, infographics, videos) tend to focus heavily on more popular MPAs and do not include less-
known sites. This dearth of publicly available information creates a perceived lack of awareness,
understanding, and appreciation by the general public and other stakeholders on the status of
MPAs and the critical importance of the GOIs MPA goals for 2030.
One way to inspire MPA stakeholders to strive to achieve effective management is to organize
widely-publicized events to recognize contributions and successes in MPA management. MMAF
previously held the EKKP3K awards to recognize well-performing MPAs, and these kinds of
events in other countries (e.g. El Mar Awards in the Philippines, Blue Parks Awards in the US)
attract mainstream media enabling their communications messages of effective MPAs, lessons
learned and impacts of successful management to reach a wide audience. Currently, there is lack
of public knowledge about effective MPAs in Indonesia and their critical role for success in the
GOI’s MPA Vision for 2030.

Expected Condition
A strong and coordinated communication and outreach platform will support increased alignment
among key partners on a path towards achieving the 10-year MPA vision. It will also aim to
increase key stakeholders’ and the general public’s understanding of and appreciation for MPAs
in Indonesia.
In ten years, the multi-layered MPA communications and outreach platform is envisioned to
support the achievement of Indonesia’s MPA goal for 2030 by:
� leading strategic communications;
� supporting strategic partnerships and collaborations with government agencies, NGOs,
local governments and regional / international initiatives;
� strengthening MMAF’s internal technical database and communications platform to serve
as a data clearinghouse; and
� socializing Indonesia’s 2030 MPA targets to the general public, key stakeholders and the
media through a range of promotional and informative online, education and outreach
materials, and signature events.

SUMMARY
CONCLUSION
This MPA Vision 2030 presents ambitious, but attainable management objectives, that
are necessary for Indonesia to achieve “the establishment of 32.5 million hectares of MPAs
The seven areas of work addressed in this vision document are key to ensuring the necessary
enabling environment, systems, processes and support frameworks are in place for the
expansion and effective management of MPAs across the country. This is vital, not only to
protect and sustainably manage the nation’s maritime heritage, but also to achieve the nations
commitments to the UN CBD’s Aichi target (11), and to establish MPA goals and designations
for the CBD Global Biodiversity Framework 2030 and the UN Sustainable Development Goals.
The development of this Vision and Roadmap began with constituency building; bringing together
a wide range of stakeholders, including multi-sectoral government agencies (at central, provincial
and district levels), NGOs, CSOs, private sector stakeholders (businesses, industry), coastal
communities and funders. Together, this shared vision, and the 99 strategic objectives outlined
The second, and most critical step, is implementation. This will require commitment and action
from all key parties. Every constituent has a role to play. Everybody has a shared responsibility
for turning the ideas presented in this document into realities.
Finally, the formal adoption of this Vision and Roadmap by all key stakeholders, and the
internalization of these objectives into individual organizational and agency planning and
budgeting, will be vital to ensure all parties strive towards these common goals.
Collaboratively we can, and must, succeed — not only for the sake of our nation’s marine heritage,
prosperity and biodiversity today, but also for the future generations that are depending upon us.

MONITORING,
EVALUATION & LEARNING
To monitor the progress of this vision and roadmap, assess achievements, and ensure
implementation is on track, the various objectives and goals are anticipated to be incorporated
into the key performance indicators (KPI) (Indikator Kinerja Utama – IKU) of each respective
annual targets.
It is also anticipated that a Task Force / Working Group (Pokja) will be formed to evaluate the
achievements of those KPIs, through the collection and analysis of relevant data every two
years with representatives from all key lead agencies. Results and lessons learned from such
assessments will be documented and shared through popular publications to provide both
Performance will be assessed based on the level of achievement of the objectives and targets
as outlined in this vision and roadmap, both in the short-term (2020-2024) and long-term (2025-
2030).
