Since the signing of the Paris Agreement in 2015, Indonesia has made a national commitment to contribute to the reduction of global emissions. This commitment, outlined in the Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC), has been ratified with a target of reducing emissions by 31% through domestic efforts and 43.2% with international support.

Earlier, in 2007, the Adaptation Fund (AF) was launched as a multilateral climate financing scheme focusing on adaptation, aimed at supporting climate change adaptation programs in developing countries that are parties to the Kyoto Protocol.

Following AF, in 2010 another financing scheme under the framework of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) was established, known as the Green Climate Fund (GCF).

Currently, KEMITRAAN serves as Indonesia’s sole National Implementing Entity (NIE) for the AF, following its official accreditation on 18 March 2016. Five years later, on 27 July 2021, KEMITRAAN was officially accredited as one of the Accredited Entities/Direct Access Entities for GCF financing.
