Road to G20: Beating Plastic Pollution from Source to Sea
The Government of Indonesia has set a strong commitment to tackle marine plastics in the country. First, our government targets to reduce 70% of ocean plastic waste by 2025 by enacting Presidential Decree Number 83/2018 on Marine Debris Management. Moreover, the Ministry of Environment and Forestry (MoEF) issued ministerial regulation Number 75/2019 to involve the private sector in taking action for waste reduction, including plastics.
Given all the commitments, policies, initiatives, and activities, Indonesia has launched its progress in reducing plastic waste by 28,5% in 2018-2021. Looking at our government’s target, accelerating efforts to achieve the national goal by 2025 is needed. The responsibility to tackle the plastic waste issue should not only be aimed at the government or private sector. All stakeholders need to be involved in creating collaborative actions.
Recognizing the urgent need to take bold collaborative action on plastic pollution. Indonesia National Plastic Action Partnership was launched in 2019 under the leadership of Luhut B. Pandjaitan, Coordinating Minister for Maritime Affairs and Investment. NPAP convenes all stakeholders to work towards one common goal –reducing marine plastic leakage.
The Indonesia NPAP has since flourished and grown into a locally-led multi stakeholder platform that brings together the nation’s leading policymakers, experts, business leaders, entrepreneurs, and civil society organizations, all working towards one common goal –reducing marine plastic leakage by 70% by 2025. In 2020, NPAP developed the Multistakeholder Action Plan – Indonesia’s first comprehensive, cost analysis of solutions to address plastic pollution through systems change approach. The action plan was informed and supported through buy-in from a broad cross-section of business, government and civil society. It is currently being implemented by five locally driven task forces in the areas of financing, innovation, policy, behavioral change, and metrics, working collaboratively as well as in parallel to put the proposed solutions in the action plan into motion.
Under Indonesia’s leadership, the upcoming G20 Summit can become a momentum to meaningfully engage government, business and communities in strengthening commitments and mobilizing more investment to achieve the national target. The outcomes from this event will also inform the upcoming discussions in the first session of the Intergovernmental Negotiating Committee in Paraguay on November 28 - December 2, 2022. This event will be co-hosted by the Coordinating Ministry of Maritime Affairs and Investment and Indonesia NPAP.
