As the new platform for Indonesia's development under Ministry of National Development Planning/National Development Planning Agency (BAPPENAS), LCDI aims to maintain economic growth through low emissions development activities while minimizing exploitation of our natural resources. The LCDI is defined as a process for identifying development policies that maintain economic growth, alleviate poverty, and help meet sector-level development targets, while simultaneously helping Indonesia achieve its climate objectives, and preserve and improve the country’s natural resources. It is coordinated by BAPPENAS and brings together several institutions from the Government of Indonesia, the international donor community, local and international partners, distinguished experts, and civil society.
