JOINT STATEMENT URGING THE STRENGTHENING OF SUSTAINABLE COMMODITY GOVERNANCE IN RESPONSE TO EUDR AND GLOBAL MARKET DEMANDS
Summary
A joint statement by 45 Indonesian organizations calling for the acceleration of sustainable commodity governance to meet EUDR requirements and global market demands, emphasizing the need for inclusive support for smallholders and Indigenous Peoples.
Key insights
- The European Commission proposed delaying the EUDR implementation from 30 December 2024 to 30 December 2025 for large companies and 30 June 2026 for micro and small enterprises, which the coalition fears may hinder ongoing improvements in the commodity sector.
- Five Indonesian commodities are affected by EUDR: timber, palm oil, cocoa, coffee, and rubber. The coalition urges the government to strengthen existing schemes like the Indonesian Sustainable Palm Oil (ISPO) and the Timber Legality and Sustainability Verification System (SVLK) to align with EUDR requirements.
- The coalition recommends a 'whole-of-government approach' to EUDR implementation, including the enforcement of Free, Prior, and Informed Consent (FPIC) for Indigenous Peoples and the creation of technical and financial assistance programs for smallholders.
- Improving commodity governance is linked to achieving Indonesia's FOLU net sink target by 2030 and enhancing the global competitiveness of Indonesian products.
