IndonesiaOil:

FoKSBI is the multi-stakeholder Indonesia sustainable palm oil platform, led by the government and facilitated by UNDP’s Sustainable Palm Oil initiative (SPOI). It provides a neutral space for stakeholders to come together and address key challenges in the development of sustainable palm oil in Indonesia. FoKSBI’s main task is to develop the National Action Plan (NAP) for Sustainable Palm Oil, and to monitor its implementation.

FoKSBI’s Steering Committee is led by The Deputy for Food and Agriculture, Coordinating Ministry of Economic Affairs, with Director General of Estate Crops, Ministry of Agriculture as the co-chair.

The National Action Plan Based on their findings, the working groups then drafted the National Action Plan and in 2017, the Platform

facilitated widespread consultations with government, civil society, the private sector both nationally and internationally on the draft National Action Plan.

NAP Components:

Better coordination of smallholders through first-ever mapping exercise; also training, and better access to seeds, finance as well as other services.

Improved environmental management and monitoring through biodiversity conservation, reduction of greenhouse gases, more productive use of land already under cultivation, protection of environmental services.

More effective sector governance, including improved law enforcement, faster resolution of land conflicts, and tighter oversight of licensing.

Accelerated smallholder certification under the Indonesian Palm Oil standard (ISPO). Also, facilitate greater market acceptance of ISPO, while also strengthening the institution and governance.

From 2015 - 2016,

In addition to the national FoKSBI Platform, to tailor solutions to the specific challenges faced by different palm oil producing areas across Indonesia, six platforms are now operating at different administrative levels in the country.

These provincial and district platforms are responsible for developing their own action plans, which are derived from the NAP.
