Leadership is key. The commitment of the Governor of Riau, H.E. Abdul Wahid, and national ministries set a model for other provinces—and countries—on how strong leadership can drive climate action. Through @unredd’s #RiauHijau, Riau is showing how global standards can translate into sustainable, inclusive growth. @UNEP @FAO

Riau’s peatlands and mangroves are critical for storing carbon, conserving #biodiversity, and supporting local livelihoods. Protecting these ecosystems through REDD safeguards is key to achieving Indonesia’s NDC targets and ensuring a sustainable future for all. #ClimateAction #REDDPlus

Great discussion with Bapak Joko Tri Haryanto, CEO of Indonesia Environment Fund @KemenkeuRI. We discussed strategies for establishing a climate resilience fund (CRF) and bringing on board development banks to serve as guaranteers in support of NDCs. Looking forward to a soft launch of CRF at #COP29 and beyond. @UNEP #ClimateAction

‘You [IPCC] have been telling us for over three decades of the dangers of allowing the planet to warm. The world listened, but it didn’t hear… As a result, #climatechange is a problem that is here, now.’
