Indonesia also shown its climate commitment through several international agreements, including the Paris Agreement in 2015. Indonesia has updated the Nationally Determined Contributions (NDC) in 2022, with new ambitious targets by 31.89% unconditionally and 43.20% conditionally. The target, planned to be achieved in 2030, coincided with the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) which also aims to achieve all 17 goals by 2030. Attaining the targets for GHG emission reduction required a huge amount of funds. According to the Second Biennial Update Report (BUR) in 2018, Indonesia has delivered the funding needed to achieve the emission reduction targets in 2030 is estimated to be USD$247.2 billion or IDR3.461 trillion. Implementing climate actions to achieve the country’s ambitious goals require a massive amount of funding and more effective use of current resources from the national budget or access other potential financial resources. As the fourth most populous country in the world, and highly affected by climate change, Indonesia needs to strengthen its public finance management for climate change and develop innovative fiscal policies to attract contribution from private and social finance. Innovative financing is approached by UNDP as a strategic lever for change, sitting at the core of the UNDP delivery system. UNDP Indonesia has made innovative finance a central part of its work on the SDGs with the objective to leverage new resources flows for sustainable development. It has established an Innovative Financing Lab (IFLab) that operates as collaborative space for Government, the private sector, financial institutions, investors, entrepreneurs, religious organizations, civil society, other UN agencies and other interested stakeholders to work together and develop solutions for financing the SDGs. The IFLab focuses on several working clusters, including Faith-based finance, Climate Finance, Integrated National Financing Framework (INFF), Thematic Bond, Impact Investing, among others. In the area of climate finance, UNDP work closely with the Fiscal Policy Agency (BKF) of the Ministry of Finance under the framework of Climate Finance Network (CFN) Indonesia project. The project is part of UNDP CFN Regional Programme, funded by UK FCDO. CFN Indonesia aims to strengthen public finance management for climate change and advancing innovative climate finance solutions at the national and sub - national levels. In regard to this, UNDP is recruiting a National Project Coordinator to manage the project effectively and coordinate the activities in close collaboration with key government partners and stakeholders.
