Deadline: 21-Jan-22
UK PACT (Partnering for Accelerated Climate Transitions) is seeking applications for a grant project that will provide technical assistance and capacity building for the Indonesian Coordinating Ministry of Maritime and Investment Affairs and the Ministry of Finance’s Fiscal Policy Agency, to formulate a cross-sectoral set of carbon pricing and market policies, and their implementation plans.
Indonesia has recently placed greater focus on transitioning to a low-carbon growth pathway while ensuring it meets its Nationally Determined Contributions (NDC). Carbon pricing and market-based instruments offer a cost-effective opportunity for achieving GHG emissions reductions.
Such policies can also increase investment and innovation in clean energy and less carbon-intensive technologies, as well as providing direct economic benefits, and other co-benefits such as increased resilience, social and environmental impacts.
Funding Information
- Up to £900,000 per year.
- Up to 3 years. Applications must also present a clear, coherent and discrete plan for what the project could achieve within a one-year timeframe.
What type of activity are they looking to fund?
UK PACT wants to receive applications for a technical assistance and capacity-building project that will deliver one or more of the following outputs:
- Training of key decision makers.
- Recommendations for action to tackle climate change or reduce emissions.
- Creation of new communications products and dissemination of knowledge products.
- The establishment or strengthening of partnerships or networks between key stakeholders.
Eligibility Criteria
