Strengthening the Implementation of national forest planning (nfp) Process in Indonesia

Back Ground
NATIONAL:
New paradigm of forest management : Ecosystem - based forest resources management with broader participation of local communities/ stakeholders; Act. 41 / 1999 on Forestry is not adequately increasing motivation to reach agreement of common vision and mision in forest resources management; INTERNATIONAL:

NFP is the translation of Agenda 21, Forest Principle of UNCED (United Nation Conference on Environment and Development). NFP is the implementation of IPF/IFF (Intergovernmental Panel on Forest / Intergovernmental Forum on Forest) Proposals for Action, UNFF.

Therefore:
Nfp process as a tools to achieve SFM as it is supported by the principles of good forestry governance. NFP process if focussed on harmonizing and synchronizing plan, policy and program of forestry sector development. nfp have been adopted and the process is on going.

NFP Principles 1. National Sovereignty

2. Consistent with national law 3. Consistent with International commitment 4. Multi-stakeholder Partnership 5. Multi-sector and holistic sector

6. Planning process, Implementation long-term monitoring and iterative

and

NFP PROCESS
Preparation and organizational process Stakeholder identification, coordination, developing communication strategy, mechanism for assure broader participation and transparency

Evaluation and Revision Periodical Evaluation Of nfp

Strategic Planning Forestry sector analysis Description of scenario and choices of long term formulation of action plan

Program implementation Operational plan, coordination of implementation, and monitoring-evaluation.

Components of NFP

1. National Forestry Statement (nfs) 2. Analysis forestry sector and relevant sector 3. Reformation of Policy, Regulation and institutions 4. Strategy development 5. Plan of Action (e.g. Strategic planning, Annual
Planning, Long-term Planning)

6. Investment Planning 7. Empowering program/Institution 8. Coordination mechanism and participation 9. Monitoring system, evaluation and revision

National and International cooperation in implementing nfp:

Forest Office at Province Level Universities, NGOs, Forestry Association Forestry Forum (e.g. Watershed Forum) SMCP - GTZ (STRENGTHENING THE MANAGEMENT CAPACITIES IN THE MINISTRY OF FORESTRY) Phase I III (2000 2009);

DFID (2004 2006); Nfp-FACILITY FAO: 2005 - 2007

National Co-Operation:

Coordination for improving nfp process at the provincial, district, and regional level; Coordination for synchronizing policy, plan, and program on forestry development; Synchronizing data and information of nfp/ forestry development; Coordination for public consultation of nfp at regional, provincial, and district level

SMCP-GTZ Cooperation: Support nfp process, and FMU Establishment

Training (co-operation with MoFor): - Management of Planning and Public Policy Analysis, - Facilitator Technique for Forestry Planning, - Change Management, - Conflict Resolution (co-operation with RECOFTC). Support for National Dialogue on Forestry (co-operation with National Forestry Council) Strategy on developing Forest Management Unit Develop spatial based macro planning Develop system and strategic plan mechanism in national, province and district level, Support for other nfp processes.

DFID Co-operation (2000-2006): Regional Strategy Development for MFP

Established 131 MFP partnership in regions Established Multi Stakeholder FORUM, Established CBFM Pilots Site Established Policy Advocacy Facilitation on NTFP marketing Participatory forest area mapping Mechanism, tolls, and description of poverty at several regions surrounding the forest

FAO nfp Facility co-operation: 2005-2007

FAO funding allocated in : Nfp counterpart in regions : Java, Sumatra, Sulawesi, Maluku, and Jakarta (national).

Activities: Workshop/Public Consultation; Review on forest management; Training, Sectors analyzing, Monitoring
Positive impact: Forestry management more transparent; vision, mission, policy, plan, and program of forestry development for SFM among national and sub national is more harmony and supported by stakeholders; Negative impact: Feed back (input) from the partner is not well run yet for reviewing forest policy, plan, and program due to communication weakness.

The main OUTPUTS of nfp Process :

Forest Land Use Designations at 27 provinces; Forest Gazzetement for 12 million hectares Establishment process of FMU; Regulation and Deregulation Reform: Act, No. 41/1999, Gov. Regulation No. 6/2007, etc.); Strategic Forestry Plans: Indonesia Forestry Long Term Development Plan 2006-2025; Indonesia Forestry Mid Term Development Plan 2005-2009; Master Plan Forest and Land Rehabilitation; Community Based Forestry Management (CBFM) developed in several regions (e.g. Java, Sumatra, Sulawesi).

Recommendations:

Improvement networking among partners and stakeholders; Continuing synchronize process dealing with setting/ reviewing of policy, plan, and program of forestry development within national, sub national level; Improving communication strategy included nfp website establishment; Strengthening capacity of Human Resources (national and sub national) through training; Base line data establishment for evaluating the achievement of nfp process based on the target of strategic planning; Enhance co-operation with national and international donors in order to support acceleration of nfp process; Continuing public consultation process for socialization, dissemination, and identification of the strategic forestry plans and actual issue on forestry/nfp;
