Memberdayakan Ketahanan Lokal: Pendekatan Komprehensif untuk Menanggulangi Slow Onset Disaster dan Dampak Perubahan Iklim dalam Lanskap Kebijakan Indonesia
Policy Brief
2024
June
Bencana yang terjadi secara perlahan atau slow onset disaster, seperti kenaikan permukaan laut, menimbulkan dampak yang signifikan di Indonesia. Undang-Undang No. 16/2016 belum mengatur tentang pengelolaan slow onset disaster terlebih untuk merespon isu perpindahan manusia seperti pengungsian, migrasi, dan relokasi sebagai dampak perubahan iklim. Solusi mengenai dampak perubahan iklim dan slow onset disaster juga perlu didukung oleh kerangka perubahan iklim yang lebih terintegrasi secara vertikal. Maka dari itu, penting untuk menguatkan integrasi kebijakan di tingkat daerah, memperkuat perlindungan sosial, dan melakukan pemantauan data yang berkala. Pemerintah daerah memiliki peran krusial dalam menerjemahkan kebijakan nasional terkait slow onset disaster dan perubahan iklim ke tingkat lokal. Masih terbatasnya kesadaran dan komitmen Pemerintah Daerah dalam merespon isu ini menunjukkan perlunya diambil langkah-langkah konkret seperti pembentukan kerangka kerja adaptasi, integrasi rencana pembangunan dengan perubahan iklim, serta penguatan perlindungan sosial. Selain itu, pemantauan penerapan kebijakan secara berkala akan membantu menentukan upaya antisipatif di masa depan. keywords: Perubahan Iklim, Slow-onset Disaster, Migrasi, Adaptasi dan Mitigasi, Ketahanan Lokal

Overcoming Barriers to Mainstream and Operationalise Adaptive Social Protection in Local Regions with Multiple Risk Contexts
Adaptive Social Protection (ASP)
2024
March
To realise ASP, it is necessary to build some basic level of knowledge and understanding about the ASP concept among key relevant stakeholders. With an increasing number of interlinked shocks and vulnerabilities due to disasters, climate change risks, and socioeconomic shocks, it is urgent to have ASP in regions with multiple covariate risks. To overcome challenges in implementing the four pillars of ASP, concerted efforts to identify linkages and complementarities among fragmented policies and programs are required.

Integrating Climate Lens Into The Heath System: Regional Mitigation and Adaptation
Global Health
2024
February
This policy brief underscores the role of human activities, particularly unsustainable economic development, in exacerbating climate change threats. The impacts of climate change, such as rising temperatures, pose continuous challenges to public health, disrupting health delivery systems and leading to adverse health outcomes. Given that ASEAN is highly susceptible to climate-related hazards, the region must prioritise preparations for the escalating threats of climate change within the health sector. Establishing climate-resilient health systems is crucial in this regard. Therefore, implementing and enhancing climate change mitigation and adaptation measures within the health sector are imperative steps to achieve this goal.

Strengthening ASEAN Public Health Emergency Measures
Policy Brief
2024
February
This policy brief highlights the recurring outbreaks of infectious diseases in Southeast Asia, such as the Nipah virus, the H1N1 virus, and the COVID-19 pandemic. It emphasises the geographical position of the ASEAN region and the complex interplay between various factors contributing to the emergence of infectious diseases. These factors include population growth, climate change, human susceptibility to infection, and microbial evolution. Failure to address these risks adequately could escalate into Public Health Emergencies of Concern, impacting regional health security and other sectors like the economy. The brief recommends that ASEAN and its member countries enhance public health preparedness and measures, taking into account the unique needs and challenges of each member state, including political and infrastructural factors.

Index-based Insurance Through Village Fund Allocation as a Constructive Solution Towards Post-Disaster Agricultural Recovery for Vulnerable Farmers
Disaster Risk Financing and Insurance
2023
August
According to the latest UN ESCAP estimates, droughts have caused an annual economic loss of roughly US$ 23,308 million to Indonesia. Global initiatives have recommended the use of insurance to protect agricultural livelihoods, but currently most farmers are not aware of the benefits of insurance, and have a low ability to pay. The government has issued Permendesa No. 6 of 2020, which provides fiscal instruments for disaster management, namely Dana Desa or Village Fund. Nonetheless, there is still a lack of understanding about Village Fund for disaster related uses. This policy brief provides three policy recommendations for the utilisation of financial risk transfer instruments and overall agricultural development. First, provisions of a social safety net for farmers through weather index-based insurance subsidised by Village Fund. Second, Development of a Social and Solidarity Supermarkets (“SSMs”) for Post-catastrophe Food Security. Lastly, establishment of an Agricultural Resilience Task Force (“ARTF”).

Connecting the Dots : How A National Intermediary Can Enable the Mobilization of Climate Finance in Indonesia
Disaster Risk Financing and Insurance
2023
August
Climate finance plays a critical role in addressing climate change issues. Global donors have provided much of this finance to help developing countries adapt and cope with ongoing climate change effects. However, limited technical capabilities and political interference in said countries can cause difficulties for donors, particularly when they want to implement it themselves. In this brief, we examine key problems faced by global donors in deploying their climate funds to developing countries and propose solutions on how the government can enable the mobilisation of such funds.We find that the government of Indonesia(GoI) has established a national intermediary called the Indonesian Environment Fund (IEF) under the Ministry of Finance. However, the IEF still has shortcomings, and could be rectified to unleash its full role in mobilising climate finance. Improvement of the IEF is necessary to help scale up the amount of funding, encourage more blended financing, and develop local implementation capabilities.

Transforming The Digital Health Landscape in ASEAN
Global Health
2023
June
The escalating demand for high-quality healthcare services, coupled with rising healthcare costs, has spurred a pressing need for digital health transformation in the ASEAN region. ASEAN Member States have embarked on this transformative journey, but a comprehensive assessment reveals substantial room for progress in narrowing existing disparities and optimizing digital health transformation. Currently, the landscape of digital health readiness within ASEAN Member States lacks uniformity, characterized by varying legislative frameworks, digital product standards, infrastructure preparedness, and digital literacy levels. This heterogeneity underscores the multifaceted nature of digital health transformation challenges in the region. To effectively advance digital health in ASEAN, efforts must focus on enforcing the enabling factors crucial for successful digital transformation. Moreover, tailored strategies must be devised to address the region’s unique and intricate challenges. This article underscores the imperative of bridging the existing gaps and promoting a cohesive digital health ecosystem within ASEAN to harness the full potential of digital innovation in healthcare delivery and cost management.
