FAO - Peat - Work - For Jakarta Workshops Feb 2018 Final
FAO - Peat - Work - For Jakarta Workshops Feb 2018 Final
Capacity building:
Land use monitoring system (LC change, fire);
rewetting and wet use options (Paludiculture =
GHG Mitigation);
how to do it on the ground =
implementation.

FAO Sharing knowledge
1. Knowledge sharing, policy &
capacity development
• support to countries (incl. UNFCCC)
• publications and case studies
• data: FAOSTAT Greenhouse gas emission
database; process guidance reporting
2. Technical guidance & support
• Peat, forest and landscape restoration
• Technical manuals, decision-support tools
• REDD+: reduced emissions from
deforestation and forest degradation
• National processes e.g. NAMAs, NAPs
NDCs (land use & tenure; climate)

FAO Peatland work in Indonesia
1. Focus: sustainable peatland restoration and management,
wildfire, GHG and smoke prevention and reduction through high-
level collaboration
2. Activities:
1. Developing alternative livelihoods incl. Paludiculture
2. Support to national agencies
3. Support REDD+, mapping deforestation, inventory, EF
3. Results so far
1) Raised awareness, interest in sustainable mgt. e.g. Paludiculture
2) Support to Peatland Restoration Agency (BRG)
• BRG-FAO Paludiculture workshop May 2016
• GHG calculations using FAO Ex-ACT tool 2016 (Jak) and 2017 (Bkk)
• Satellite data training using SEPAL system (Bogor, Dec 2017)

BRG-FAO Paludiculture workshop
10-11 May 2016: Conclusions
Halt peatlands drainage, address
drivers, rewet already drained
areas, and monitor the progress
and emissions.

FAO EX-ACT tool for GHG estimation from
peatlands management
○ Based on IPCC 2006 methodology updated with Wetlands
Supplement 2013. Approved / required for World Bank projects
○ Land use GHG emissions can be estimated for:
– Peatland drainage, fire, and rewetting
– User can insert own / national data on GHG emissions
○ Training for Indonesian Peatland Restoration Agency
○ Customisation of the tool for Indonesia in 2018:
– GHG Emission factors, link to satellite land cover change, Bahasa?
– estimate the GHG emission reduction potential of restoration of
2 million ha of drained and degrading peatland under different
management practices

What is FAO doing to support peat mapping and
monitoring in 2018?
FAO proposal for BRG Peat Restoration Monitoring System
(PRMS)
1. Creation of a fit-for-purpose PRMS using FAO SEPAL
system satisfying the monitoring needs of BRG and
other stakeholders as identified through consultations.
2. Capacity development and institutionalization and
installation of infrastructure for the PRMS within BRG.
