INSIDE STORY: A new direction in climate compatible development - Indonesia's forest moratorium

The document examines Indonesia's 2011 forest moratorium as a tool to meet greenhouse gas emission reduction targets and a catalyst for governance reform.

• Indonesia committed in late 2009 to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 26% by 2020 (or 41% with international help) relative to business as usual, intending to meet 87% of this target through the reduction of emissions from peatland conversion and deforestation. To support this, President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono signed a decree on May 20, 2011, establishing a two-year moratorium on new permits for peatland and primary natural forest use.
