$800,000)
2012-2015
Sector Assessment: FOREST Mechanisms
Findings• FOREST was developed through GOI consultations • FOREST mechanism performance variable, but improving • Significant need and opportunity exists to improve
coordination among FOREST mechanisms for results • Programming gaps not being filled by current mechanisms,
especially national level policy and support• Landscape approach addresses many GOI priorities• Challenging to link GOI national priorities to district-level• IFACS stretched across a large area with many landscapes
(8) resulting in minimal impact
Current Challenges in the Forest Sector
8
Indonesia highest deforestation rate in the world ;
The deforestation drivers: agriculture extension (Palm oil)
Palm oil area projected increase double in 2020
The forestry sector contribution to GDP declined successively from 1.5% in 2001 to become 0.78% in 2012; About 60 Million Ha of State forest unmanaged
Indonesia forest fire and haze risk remain high. The fire alert 3 times compared last decade
Illegal mining uncontrolled: encroaches protecting area
Land acquisition projection for Palm Oil
Forestry Program Focus Area
• Low land forest, high biodiversity resource, Orang Utan Habitat, Carbon pools
• Strengthening USAID investment in IFACS landscapes• Potential opportunity to expand outside of these landscapes with
private sector partnerships
Forestry Program Objectives and Overarching Approaches
Objective: Reduce land based greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and conserve valuable biodiversity in carbon rich and biologically significant forest and ecosystems in partnership with private sector, communities, and the Government of Indonesia.
• Approaches
• Build on past USAID successes in spatial planning, local capacity building, forest governance, building multistakeholder processes.
• Continued landscape focus with increased coordination at Provincial and National levels.
• Increased emphasis on biodiversity through Conservation Areas.• More emphasis on national policy engagement especially with
Ministry of Forestry, Ministry of Agriculture, BIG, REDD Agency etc• Private sector engagement• Increased emphasis on communities

• Improve enabling environment for sustainable business practices.
3. Community Conservation, Participation and Livelihoods
• Activities:• Explore, enhance and apply models for community based and
co-management conservation and management of forests;• Improve key stakeholders’ awareness and appreciation for
forest and species conservation; • Develop citizen-based mechanisms for public input and
monitoring of government decisions;• Establish co-management arrangements between communities,
private sector and appropriate government entities;• TAs to communities to improve sustainable natural resources
management practices • Strengthening sustainability of community livelihood program• Leverage village development and conservation program
4. Protecting Key Species
• Enhance conservation area (CA) performance, management and sustainable financing;
• Capacity building program for CAs management-Sister Park Program through relationship with Department of Interior;
• Using technology to monitor and enforce wildlife encroachment and poaching;
• Improve opportunities for collaborative management strategies;• advocate, manage, and report on threats to CAs and other areas of
high biodiversity;• Improve national incentives and policies for improving management
of conservation areas and the species they harbor; • Reduce wildlife poaching and trafficking.
