\"Indonesia has already started to integrate climate change adaptation {CCA) into development planning. The National Adaptation Plan process in Indonesia has its foundation in the National Action Plan for Climate Change Adaptation {RAN-API 2013-2025). A review of the RAN-API was conducted in 2019. The updated RAN-API provides up-to-date information and data on climate projections, hazards and impacts in Indonesia and identifies priority sectors- marine and coastal, water, agriculture, and health-for adaptation action.
While Indonesia's adaptation planning process is considerably developed, several barriers to enhanced adaptation planning and implementation of adaptation options remain. These include a lack of effective coordination, the absence of an updated adaptation plan, inadequate focus on identifying adaptation options in vulnerable areas, unavailability of detailed information and vulnerability assessments for adaptation planning at national and sub- national levels, and challenges in tracking adaptation-related investment at national and sub- national evels. In addition, the lack of capacity for adaptation planning and budgeting is a cross-cutting issue for national ministries and sub-national governance structures.
The main objective of this National Adaptation Plan {NAP)-Green Climate Fund {GCF) project is to ensure that the RAN-API is well coordinated, implemented, and monitored. The project has both a national and sub-national dimension: it will support the next update of the RAN-API and enhance relevant assessment and budgeting systems.
