**Program Overview**
WRI Indonesia is an independent research organization that turns big ideas into action at the nexus of environment, economic opportunity, and human well-being. At WRI Indonesia, we aim to bring innovations in research and business approaches to create the enabling conditions for Indonesia to achieve robust economic growth while respecting environmental and social values. We seek to contribute to the accomplishment of ambitious sustainable development goals through working with leaders in public and private sectors, as well as collaborating with civil society organizations, in turning big ideas into action.
Within our Forests, Land use, and Water (FLW) Program, Forests, People, and Climate (FPC) is a collaboration between philanthropic donors and civil society organizations (CSOs) seeking to halt and reverse tropical deforestation while delivering just and sustainable development. We focus on equitable and enduring solutions that safeguard tropical forests and support those defending them, in particular Indigenous Peoples and local communities. Through this collaboration, experts, CSOs, and donor partners identify the strategic priorities that must be addressed to end and reverse deforestation, mobilize the funding for those priorities, and connect with and strengthen broader networks of partners to move funding to support the work.
In collaboration with partners, including the World Resources Institute (WRI), FPC is designing a Monitoring and Learning (M&L) framework, which is fully integrated with FPC's Indonesia strategy development and implementation processes, to help inform our collective efforts and refine the strategies based on what we learn about how and where FPC support is having the greatest impact. The M&L framework aims to function as a service to the field, so that FPC and its partners can track progress towards objectives and goals more effectively (and use monitoring evidence to adapt living strategies), harness decision-useful data, and collectively shift the power associated with monitoring - typically a top-down, donor-driven, and resource-intensive process - to tropical forest countries.
**FPC Indonesia Strategy and Pathways**
Help Indonesia achieve a tipping point by 2030, where economic, political, and social incentives favor a green development path that ends deforestation, promotes ecosystem restoration, and respects the rights of Indigenous Peoples, Local Communities, and smallholder farmers. To realign the incentives to favor forest conservation and restoration by promoting green development in Indonesia, this Indonesia Strategy aims to bring about five interconnected outcome pathways until 2030:
- ** Secure the rights and welfare of IPLC**: firmly recognize and implement IPLC tenure and resource rights, resulting in increased welfare and quality of life, forest protection, and supporting their advocacy for enforcement of green development policies.
- ** Strengthen civil society and social resilience**: increase CSOs resilience and protect and support the space for social movements and civic organizations to further advance public social, environmental, and economic goals of green development.
- **Change the narrative**: demonstrate that green development is the most attractive economic and social development vision for the public, decision-makers, businesses and investors.
- ** Reshape the economy**: significantly increase capacity of governments, businesses, indigenous groups, and smallholders to conduct research, advocacy, and the implementation of green development that promotes forest, peat, and mangrove ecosystem protection and restoration.
- ** Refine the politics**: ensure that national and sub-national leaders understand the importance of pursuing green development, how it can strengthen their political legitimacy, and how to implement it.
**Pathway 2: Strengthen Civil Society and Social Resilience**
In this pathway, FPC will measure the resilience of targeted CSOs in Indonesia from an organizational and financial perspective. The hope is that these CSOs can also channel funding to local CSOs outside of Java.
