Summary

The International Symposium on Coastal Cities, Marine Resources, and Climate Change in the Coral

Triangle’ has been held in the Sultan Hotel, Jakarta on the 4 July 2013, and in the Central Library, the

University of Indonesia campus on the 5 July 2013. Prior to the symposium, a workshop on APRU

Knowledge-Action discussing research-policy partnerships in action was conducted on the 3 July 2013

at the Sultan Hotel, Jakarta.

The International Symposium on Coastal Cities, Marine Resources, and Climate Change in the Coral

Triangle was opened by the Rector of the Universitas Indonesia. Key-note speeches were the Ministry

of Marine Affairs and Fisheries and Minister of Environment. Panel discussions and parallel sessions

discussed variety of topics from challenges in adaptation, law and policy, partner’s perceptions in

climate change funding, management of small islands and coastal cities, mitigation and adaptation

strategy, population vulnerability, to the impacts of climate change to natural and man-made

environment and education.

There were more than 150 participants from Indonesia as well as other countries such as Singapore,

Brunei, Malaysia, Philippines, Australia and United States, representing senior scientists and

academicians from APRU member, governments, NGOs, graduate students, as well as practitioners.

There were 51 oral presentations which include 26 submitted abstracts and 25 invited speakers, and

15 posters from graduate students. These participation indicates the importance of climate change

issues to Indonesia and the entire Pacific Rim community in which A knowledge-action approach is

needed to tackle the issues.

P a g e | 6

Background

Coastal communities around the Pacific Rim urgently require sustainable solutions to address the

mounting challenges of urban development and population growth, the over exploitation of marine

resources and loss of biodiversity, coupled with the growing necessity to adapt to, and build resilience

for, more frequent and intense extreme weather events and climate change induced sea-level rise.

In few places are these challenges more apparent than in the island archipelago of Indonesia, the

fourth most populous country in the world centered in the biodiversity rich, but ecologically fragile

Coral Triangle. Jakarta, the nation’s capital is the region’s largest and fastest growing metropolitan

city. The plethora of urban sustainability challenges facing Jakarta were highlighted earlier this year by

the floods that left numerous dead and tens of thousands homeless in a city in which over a third of

the land area sits below sea level.

Universitas Indonesia through the Research Center for Climate Change proposed to host the

‘International symposium on Coastal Cities, Marine Resources, and Climate Change in the Coral

Triangle’ to discuss this important issue at the end of 2012 (Appendix 1). As part of the APRU

Sustainability and Climate Change Program (APRU-SCC), the overall aims of this symposium to

strengthen collaboration among Pacific Rim research universities and partner institutions on solutions

to issues of sustainability and climate change. The symposium brings together the top academic

minds from the Asia-Pacific’s leading research universities to link knowledge to action through

collaborative dialogue with local and regional policymakers, enterprise bodies and other key partners

on sustainable solutions for the City of Jakarta, Indonesia and the region.

Objectives

1. To discuss Jakarta’s/Indonesia’s sustainability challenges at the international level in the

context of coastal cities, marine resources and adaptation/mitigation to climate change

2. To share challenges and solutions on these issues among academic experts, government, and

practitioners and to plan management and policy interventions accordingly

3. To link science and policy through APRU as a knowledge-action network in sustainability and

climate change issues

Activities

1. Venues and accommodation

The first and second day of the symposium were carried out at The Sultan Hotel, Jakarta. The Sultan

Hotel is one of the oldest hotel in Jakarta which is located in the Central part of Jakarta. The first day,

3 July 2013, was the APRU Knowledge-Action workshop: research-policy partnerships in action. The

second day, 4 July 2013, was the opening of the symposium, including key-note speeches and panel

discussion.

Piggot and delegates from other countries

Distinguished Guests, Ladies and Gentlemen

Very Good Morning

It is an honor and great pleasure to welcome you on behalf of the organizers of this workshop.

It is indeed a great honor for us to host this important workshop as a platform for concerned

academics and leaders, including climate change and marine scientists, regulators, Coastal City

Government officials Civil society and private sector representatives. We have a very good showing

with participants from Countries in the coral triangle and Asia Pacific area. We have worked hard so

that it will be a good forum to share ideas and experiences in the many fields related to the main

symposium themes.

This workshop is part of the APRU (Association of Pacific Rim Universities) series of meetings and part

of their program on Sustainability and Climate change. APRU has 42 outstanding university members

in the Asia Pacific Rim area. This covers universities in USA West Coast area, South America, East

Coast of Russia, Japan, Korean, China, Taiwan, New Zealand, Australia and Southeast Asia.

This workshop is also supported by and organized in collaboration with the Ministry of Marine Affairs

and Fisheries, the Ministry of the Environment, the National Council for Climate Change, and The Coral

Triangle Office.

This meeting has 3 objectives: First, to discuss Jakarta’s sustainability challenges at the international

level with the focus on coastal cities and adaptation to climate change. Secondly, to share the

challenges and solutions on these issues among Academic experts, government and practitioners and

to plan management and policy intervention accordingly. And thirdly, to link science and policy

through APRU as a knowledge action network in Sustainability and climate change.

Distinguished Guests, Ladies and Gentlemen,

The schedule of the workshop over the next 2 days will be intensive and, I hope, productive. Our first

day, today, here in the Hotel Sultan is focuses on Climate change policy in the coastal cities in

Indonesia. We will be looking at Jakarta of course but also some other Asia Pacific cities in the coral

triangle.

We have key note speeches from the Ministry of Marine Affairs and Fisheries, the Ministry of the

Environment, the National Council for Climate Change, and Local government in this case the Mayor’s

Office in Jakarta. We also have speakers from the Coral Triangle office and other leaders and decision

makers from the Indonesian government.

P a g e | 22

This afternoon, we have a panel discussion with our partners and donors with the discussion on their

perceptions and funding opportunities for climate change mitigation and adaptation programs in

general with special reference to coastal cities. Tomorrow, we will travel to the new library building on

the campus of Universitas Indonesia. This venue is modern and bright, and its lakeside setting will

provide a refreshing alternative to the venue here in the hotel. There we have 3 parallel rooms and

with 4 sessions within each room with total of more than 56 presentations and 15 poster

presentations.

Participation has been good. To date, we have more than 150 participants registered, including policy

makers, scientists, professors, people from NGOs, the private sector and students.

APRU delegates have come from the United States, Australia, the Philippines, Malaysia, Brunei,

Singapore and around Indonesia. There is even one participant from Austria. Welcome to you all.

We hope that this workshop will be an enjoyable and productive opportunity for you to meet and

discuss the pressing issues that are of interest to us with delegates from other countries.

While we have done everything we can to ensure that the conference runs smoothly and efficiently,

and we hope that your experience will be uniformly pleasant while you are here, we want you to know

that if you experience any difficulty, or need our help in any way, please do not hesitate to contact us.

We will do all we can to help.

Again welcome to Indonesia and Jakarta in particular and enjoy your time here.

Appendix 5. Opening Speech by Interim Rector of Universitas Indonesia

Opening Speech

by Prof. Dr. Ir. Mohammad Anis, M.Met. Interim Rector, Universitas Indonesia

at the opening of the ‘International Symposium on Coastal Cities,

Marine Resources and Climate Change in the Coral Triangle’, Hotel Sultan, Jakarta 4th July 2013

Good morning everyone.

On behalf of Universitas Indonesia, I would like to say welcome to everyone here this morning. We are particularly happy that the symposium, jointly organized by Universitas Indonesia and the Association of Pacific Rim Universities, has received support and attention from:

Mr. Rahmat Witoelar, the President’s Special Envoy for Climate Change and the Chairman of the National Council on Climate Change (DNPI), His Excellency, Mr. Sharif Cicip Sutarjo, Indonesia’s Minister of Marine Affairs and Fisheries, His Excellency, Mr. Balthazar Kambuaya, Indonesia’s Minister of the Environment, and Mr. Joko Widodo, Governor of Jakarta.

We are very pleased that you have given your support and are honored by your presence.

A special welcome also to all of the speakers, and to all the participants who share an interest in this important issue.

This symposium draws together the connections between climate change, marine resources and coastal cities. It demonstrates leadership from the organizers by bringing these challenges to the forefront of our attention. I would like to thank APRU for its work in this area. Universitas Indonesia is a member of APRU and values the work it does.

Our university has been active in this area. In September of 2011, we hosted the Polar Norway Exhibition, and lecture series on climate change, attended by His Excellency Erik Solheim, the Norwegian Minister of the Environment and International Development, and His Excellency Muhammad Nuh, Indonesian Minister of Education. In March of last year, we welcomed His Excellency, Mark Canning, the UK Ambassador at the unveiling of a climate change map for South East Asia produced by British scientists and showing projected temperature rises in the region along with the environmental, economic and social consequences.

Climate change is forcing its way into our lives. This is our new reality. We see the reports in television news about extreme weather events, high temperatures, unusually heavy rainfall, flooding, hurricanes, droughts and fires. Some of these events, like Hurricane Katrina’s arrival in New Orleans, or the tornado in Oklahoma recently, bring damage, disruption and death on a huge scale.

Here in Jakarta, we have been used to seasonal flooding in the city accompanying the rainy season. For many people, the flooding brings misery, health problems and personal loss. It is obvious that leaders must get together to plan for events like this. We are lucky now to have a governor of Jakarta who is concerned and ready to tackle problems like this.

It is clear that the problems of managing today’s megacities include not only economic, physical and social issues. We must deal with the impacts of climate change. We must ensure that economic growth does not lead to environmental collapse. If the environment collapses, so too will the economy. The university has a special role to play in meeting these challenges.

P a g e | 24

Universitas Indonesia’s Climate Change Research Center has, in the short time since it was established, in 2009, led the way in contributing to our understanding of the hugely important issue of climate change. The Center is currently working with the Ministry of Health to look into how people’s susceptibility to malaria and typhoid fever is affected by climate change. The Center recently hosted another symposium on how urban populations are affected by air pollution and climate change. They have also run training sessions such as their master class on policy analysis for REDD+, and on geographical information systems.

During this symposium, Universitas Indonesia will sign an MOU with the Maritime, Coastal and Small Islands Directorate General in the Ministry of Marine Affairs and Fisheries. This will support research and the university’s contribution to local communities in small, outer islands. In addition, every year the university, as part of its soft skills program, sends several hundred senior undergraduates to these remote and underdeveloped locations to share their knowledge in the service of the local communities. These activities show the university’s commitment to environmental and marine protection issues and to its social mission.

I am very pleased to see the kind of support and attention that we have from government and from the academics who have come from afar to share their expertise and help make this symposium a success.

The issues covered are serious and worthy of our attention. Hopefully, the symposium will inspire us all to be well prepared for the changes that are taking place.

Thank you.

INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM “COASTAL CITIES, MARINE RESOURCES, AND CLIMATE CHANGE IN THE CORAL TRIANGLE : SUSTAINABILITY AND CLIMATE CHANGE”

Climate Change and Challenges in Marine Resources in Indonesia

Jakarta, 04 Juli 2013

============================================= Bismillahirahmanirrahim

Assalamua’laikum Warahmatulahi Wabarokatuh

Good morning and best wishes to all of us,

Honorable guests:

1. Hon. Dr. Balthasar Kambuaya, M.B.A: Minister of Environment; 2. Mr. Joko Widodo, Governor of DKI or the representative; 3. Mr. Chris Tremewan – Secretary of Association of Pacific Rim Universities; 4. Mr. Prof. Dr. Muhammad Anis, Rector of University of Indonesia; 5. Distinguished Speakers and Participants.

Ladies and Gentlemen,

First of all, let us give our praise and gratitude only to the almighty God who has given His mercy and grace to all of us, so that, today, we are gathering here at the International Symposium on Coastal Cities, Marine Resources, and Climate Change in Coral Triangle.

I would like to convey my highest appreciation for Asociation Pacific Rim Universities and Research Centre for Climate Change University of Indonesia in partner with Ministry of Marine Affairs and Fisheries, Ministry of environment and National Coordination Committee of CTI-CFF in organizing these events. This Symposium is held for the second time in Indonesia, which will bring together the top academic minds from the Asia Pacific’s leading universities to link knowledge to action through collaborative dialogue with local and regional policy-makers, enterprise bodies and other partners on sustainable solutions for the city of Jakarta, Indonesia as well as the region.

On behalf of the Government of the Republic of Indonesia, I would like to welcome all of you in Jakarta. It is a great honor for me to co-host this Symposium.

Distinguished participants, ladies and gentlemen,

P a g e | 26

Further to my remarks, henceforth I will use Bahasa Indonesia.

Bapak/Ibu, hadirin yang saya hormati,

Sebagaimana kita ketahui bersama bahwa Indonesia merupakan negara kepulauan terbesar di dunia

yang menyimpan potensi kekayaan dan keanekaragaman sumberdaya alamnya, baik sumberdaya

terbaharukan (renewable resources), seperti perikanan, terumbu karang, mangrove, padang lamun

maupun tak terbaharukan (nonrenewable resources), seperti minyak bumi, gas, mineral dan bahan

tambang lainnya.

Kita semua menyadari, bahwa potensi kekayaan laut yang begitu besar telah memberikan manfaat bagi kehidupan manusia di dunia sejak berabad-abad yang lalu. Lebih lanjut, potensi kekayaan dan keanekaragaman tersebut apabila dikelola dengan baik akan memberikan kesejahteraan bagi masyarakat. Dan di masa depan, pemanfaatan sumberdaya laut tersebut akan makin meningkat sejalan dengan makin meningkatnya jumlah penduduk dan kebutuhan hidup manusia. Namun demikian, dalam beberapa dasawarsa ini kita telah menyaksikan dan merasakan peningkatan dampak negatif berupa kerusakan sumberdaya pesisir dan lingkungan laut sebagai akibat dari pemanfaatan sumberdaya alam yang berlebihan dan tidak bertanggung jawab. Kondisi tersebut diperparah dengan dampak perubahan iklim terhadap sumberdaya alam dan sumberdaya manusia di wilayah pesisir. Perubahan iklim berdampak cukup signifikan kepada para nelayan kita berupa cuaca ekstrim yang semakin sering dan tidak dapat diprediksi, dan perubahan pola migrasi ikan/daerah tangkapan. Selain daripada itu, perubahan iklim juga mengakibatkan kenaikan suhu permukaan air laut, kenaikan paras muka air laut, dan asidifikasi air laut. Perubahan iklim adalah suatu keniscayaan yang tidak dapat dihentikan. Namun demikian, dampak perubahan iklim dapat ditunda dengan melakukan dua hal, yaitu upaya mitigasi dan adaptasi. Sebagai upaya mitigasi, Pemerintah Indonesia telah menetapkan target menurunkan emisi gas rumah kaca sebesar 26% secara mandiri dan 41% dengan bantuan internasional pada tahun 2020. Sedangkan upaya adaptasi dilakukan dengan cara perbaikan pengelolaan sumberdaya pesisir dan laut sehingga kerusakan sumberdaya dapat dikurangi atau bahkan dipulihkan. Upaya-upaya pemulihan yang sudah dan akan terus dilakukan oleh pemerintah antara lain: (a) mengurangi penangkapan ikan dengan cara-cara yang merusak, (b) mengurangi polusi dan sedimentasi, (c) meningkatkan kualitas sumberdaya pesisir dan laut melalui upaya-upaya rehabilitasi, (d) membangun dan mengelola secara efektif kawasan konservasi laut, (e) meningkatkan upaya konservasi jenis ikan, dan (f) menerapkan pendekatan pengelolaan perikanan berbasis ekosistem. Sedangkan pada tingkat desa, KKP juga mengembangkan program yang berfokus pada peningkatan ketangguhan masyarakat pesisir. Program tersebut dinamakan "Pengembangan Desa Pesisir Tangguh". Program ini terdiri dari 5 aspek yaitu Bina Manusia, Pengembangan Mata Pencaharian Alternatif, Perbaikan Lingkungan dan Infrastruktur skala kecil, Pengembangan Kelembagaan, dan Peningkatan Ketahanan Masyarakat terhadap Perubahan Iklim dan Bencana Alam. Diharapkan dengan terwujudnya Desa Pesisir Tangguh pada setiap wilayah, maka akan terwujud pula Kabupaten dan Kota Pesisir Tangguh serta Provinsi Tangguh yang pada akhirnya menuju Indonesia Tangguh.

P a g e | 27

Bapak/Ibu, hadirin yang saya hormati,

Tidak hanya pada tingkat nasional, Pemerintah Indonesia juga telah melakukan upaya-upaya

pengelolaan berkelanjutan sumberdaya pesisir dan laut pada tingkat Regional maupun Internasional.

Salah satu yang cukup intensif dilakukan pada 6 (enam) tahun terakhir ini adalah Coral Triangle

Initiative on Coral Reefs, Fisheries, and Food Security atau disingkat CTI-CFF. CTI-CFF merupakan

kerjasama regional 6 (enam) Negara yaitu Indonesia, Malaysia, Filipina, Solomon Island, Timor-Leste,

dan Papua Nugini untuk konservasi dan pengelolaan berkelanjutan sumberdaya pesisir dan laut di

kawasan Coral Triangle.

Coral Triangle merupakan kawasan pesisir dan laut yang terletak pada 6 (enam) Negara tersebut dan

merupakan pusat keanekaragaman hayati laut dunia. Sebagai upaya untuk pengelolaan berkelanjutan

sumberdaya pesisir dan laut kawasan tersebut, keenam Negara telah menyepakati Regional Plan of

Action yang memiliki 5 (lima) tujuan utama yaitu: (1) Penetapan dan pengelolan efektif kawasan

bentang laut prioritas, (2) Penerapan pendekatan ekosistem untuk pengelolaan perikanan, (3)

Penetapan dan pengelolaan efektif kawasan konservasi laut, (4) Upaya-upaya adaptasi perubahan

iklim, dan (5) Perbaikan status dan kondisi spesies terancam punah.

Hadirin yang saya hormati,

Selain upaya-upaya yang telah saya sebutkan tadi, pada kesempatan yang baik ini, saya ingin

mengajak para peserta Symposium, baik dari kalangan akademisi, pemerintahan, swasta, dan

professional lainnya, untuk dapat menggali dan berbagi gagasan dan pikiran inovatif dan kreatif untuk

menjawab tantangan perubahan iklim tersebut. Salah satu pendekatan yang dapat digali lebih lanjut

dan dikembangkan di masa depan adalah konsep ekonomi biru (Blue Economy), yaitu system ekonomi

yang dilandasi oleh prinsip-prinsip efisiensi sumberdaya alam, system produksi tanpa limbah, dan

kepedulian sosial. Untuk itu, investasi harus mengarah pada kegiatan ekonomi ramah lingkungan,

dengan menggunakan sumberdaya alam lebih efisien, namun dapat meningkatkan pendapatan lebih

besar dan tidak merusak lingkungan.

Dengan konsep blue economy, diharapkan pertumbuhan ekonomi naik, pendapatan masyarakat

meningkat, lapangan pekerjaan makin luas, namun laut dan langit tetap biru, karena tidak merusak

lingkungan.

Bapak/Ibu, hadirin yang saya hormati,

Perlu saya tegaskan, sebagai Negara kepulauan, Indonesia mempunyai komitmen untuk

melaksanakan konsep pembangunan kelautan berdasarkan prinsip keseimbangan antara kepentingan

ekonomi, sosial, dan lingkungan. Komitmen tersebut tercermin dari VISI kami, yaitu “Pembangunan

Kelautan dan Perikanan yang Berdaya Saing dan Berkelanjutan untuk Kesejahteraan Masyarakat”.

Dengan Visi tersebut kebijakan kelautan dan perikanan lebih diarahkan pada upaya modernisasi

sistem ekonomi berbasis kelautan dan perikanan dan mendorong usaha dan investasi ramah

lingkungan dengan model blue economy. Komitmen tersebut akan terus ditingkatkan dan

dilaksanakan secara konsisten.

Bapak/Ibu, hadirin yang saya hormati,

P a g e | 28

Saya berharap bahwa Symposium ini dapat menjadi wadah bagi para akademisi, pemerintah, pihak

swasta, dan pihak terkait lainnya untuk merumuskan masukan kebijakan dan langkah-langkah aksi

untuk melengkapi kebijakan dan implementasi yang telah kami lakukan dalam pelaksanaan

pembangunan kelautan berkelanjutan, khususnya yang berkaitan dengan adaptasi perubahan iklim.

Demikian beberapa hal yang dapat kami sampaikan. Besar harapan saya bahwa Symposium ini dapat

memberikan hasil yang bermanfaat bagi pelaksanaan pembangunan kelautan dan perikanan

berkelanjutan dan pada gilirannya akan meningkatkan kesejahteraan masyarakat.

Sebelum mengakhiri sambutan ini, saya berharap kepada seluruh peserta, pembicara, dapat berperan

aktif pada Symposium ini. Sekali lagi saya sampaikan ucapan terima kasih kepada Asociation Pacific

Rim Universities dan RCCCUI yg telah mengundang saya sebagai pembicara dan para pihak yang telah

memberikan kontribusi yang tidak ternilai pada penyelenggaraan symposium ini.

Distinguished ladies and gentlemen,

I am pleased to express my great appreciation to all participants, including Academics, government

officials, professionals, NGO’s, and private sectors for your participation and great contribution to the

Symposium. I hope this Symposium will provide you opportunities to share information and experience

in addressing critical issues, especially related to climate change adaptation in marine resources.

Finally, I wish you to have a good time and enjoy Jakarta.

Sekian dan terima kasih.

Wassalammualaikum warramatullahi wabarokatuh.

Remarks

By

The Minister of Environment

The Republic of Indonesia

Delivered at

International Symposium on Coastal Cities, Marine Resources and

Climate Change in the Coral Triangle

Hotel Sultan, Jakarta 4 July 2013

Distinguished Guests;

Ladies and Gentlemen;

First of all I would like to extend my warmest welcome and greetings to all of participants of this

meeting. It gives me a great pleasure to be here, International Symposium on Coastal Cities, Marine

Resources and Climate Change in the Coral Triangle, to address the issues of National policy in

climate change adaptation.

Distinguished Ladies and Gentlemen:

The climate belongs to us all. We see changes in the climate that worries us, changes that cannot be

explained as natural and changes that may origin from human thoughtless use of resources and

nature. As you are well aware, the 2007 IPCC (IPCC, 2007) has documented the growing risks of

flooding posed for Asia’s coastal cities by the climate change, as reflected in sea level rise and

intensified storms and storm surges, and ongoing urban growth in low-lying coastal zones. Recent

studies indicate that climate change, sea level rise and the sinking of the deltas on which most Asian

mega urban regions have arisen, are all occurring at much faster rates than earlier projected and

therefore pose even greater risks than previously indicated. Global warming appears to be

accelerating and may increase to 4° C or more by the end of this century, twice the earlier IPCC

projections. The sea level is now expected to rise by one meter or more by 2100; two or three times

the earlier projections. The recent typhoons and rains striking Southeast Asia have been the most

intense in decades as would be expected as a result of global warming.

Indonesia, as an archipelagic country, is identified as one of the vulnerable countries based on the

recent studies such as World Bank. Refer to the Indonesian National Disaster Management Agency’s

2010-2014 Plan, the island of Java, where approximately 130 million people live, is particularly

vulnerable to tropical cyclones. In 2011 the Meteorology, Climatology and Geophysics Agency (BMKG)

detected 23 tropical cyclones off the coast, which produced high-speed winds, heavy rains and

P a g e | 30

heightened tidal levels that caused flooding and structural damage to buildings and coastal

infrastructure.

In terms of marine biodiversity, Indonesia is home to 16% of the world’s coral reefs and the highest

reef-associated population in the world, with nearly 60 million people living on the coast near coral

reefs. The loss of coral reef areas is inevitable due to the blast-fishing, tourist activities and pollutions,

and in addition to that, climate change worsening those cases. The El Niño event in 1997-98 triggered

widespread bleaching in Indonesia, with western and west-central Indonesia most affected. In 2000,

bleaching was recorded in East Sumatra, Java, Bali, and Lombok. In the Seribu Islands northwest of

Jakarta, 90% to 95% of the coral reef from the reef flat down to 25 m died. According to LIPI-study, a

number of 70 % of the total coral reefs in Indonesia is identified will be lost by 2050 if restoration

action does not occur. The current study of World Research Institute in 2013 finds that more than

85% of reefs in the Coral Triangle area —covers Indonesia, Malaysia, Papua New Guinea, Philippines,

Solomon Islands, and Timor-Leste— are directly threatened.

Referring to previous data and information as well as scientific assessments, mangrove protection is

considered as one of the best ways to protect the coastal area. Mangrove forest loss will certainly

lead coastal cities to total flooding from tides and from upland, which will rank among the most

devastating natural disasters in the contemporary history of the city. These mangroves support bay

fisheries, provide coastal protection against typhoons and storms, reduce erosion, stabilize sediments,

control flooding and pollution, and serve as habitats for many forms of biota. The State of

Environment Report 2012 stated that Indonesia has around 9.36 million hectares of mangrove forests,

but 48% is categorized as ‘moderately damaged’ and 23% as 'badly damaged'.

Ladies and Gentlemen of the Forum;

The evidence shows that ignoring climate change will eventually hinder economic growth. Our actions

over the coming few decades could create risks of major disruption to economic and social activity,

later in this century and in the next, on a scale similar to those associated with the great wars and the

economic depression of the first half of the 20th century. And it will be very difficult or impossible to

reverse these changes.

Tackling climate change is the pro-growth strategy for the longer term, and it can be done in a way

that does not cap the aspirations for growth of rich or poor countries. The earlier effective action is

taken, the less costly it will be. At the same time, given that climate change is happening, measures to

help people in adapting the environmental changes are essential. And the less mitigation we do now,

the greater the difficulty of continuing to adapt in future.

Distinguished Ladies and Gentlemen;

Combating climate change, in particular in coastal areas including coastal mega-cities, in a sustainable-

manner is one of the greatest challenges of the 21st Century. Ambitious targets to address climate

change and reduce the coastal vulnerability have been agreed in the frameworks of the UNFCCC and

the CBD respectively.

P a g e | 31

Efforts in adaptation and mitigation in conjunction to face climate change are require to be done as

soon as possible. Indonesia has prepared a set of policies for disaster management and various

supporting adaptation strategies in vulnerable sectors as mentioned in the National Action on Climate

Change (RAN-PI, 2007) and ICCSR (2009), such as coastal infrastructures, water resources

management, fisheries and agriculture.

Another crucial progress in climate change adaptation n Indonesia is the National Action Plan for

Climate Change Adaptation (RAN-API) development coordinated by National Planning Agency

(Bappenas) in cooperation with the National Council on Climate Change (DNPI) and the Ministry of

Enviroment, and also involves other line ministries. The purpose of the document is to coordinate and

synchronize adaptation activities in the national level, which also will cover the coastal management

as our focus in this symposium and will be linked to spatial planning and sustainability of the

environmental carrying capacity (water supply, food protection, local economic development).

Ladies and Gentlemen,

With regard to the issue of the global carbon cycle, marine resources have very important role

responding to the increase CO2 emission to the atmosphere. With refer to current research in the

Ministry of Marine and Fisheries, Indonesia's seas emit CO2 (contemporary) to the atmosphere of 0,1

mol C/m2/year or in total of 0,052 PgC/year. This amount has not yet included the carbon supply from

the river into the ocean which is account for 110 trillion gC/year (Baum at all, 2007). Meanwhile, seas

also have significant role as sink for GHG emission. Indonesia is now actively developing so called

BLUE CARBON as an mechanism of absorption of carbon by coastal and marine ecosystem by

photosynthetic process for example through mangrove, sea weeds, sea grass and phytoplankton.

This condition has no yet taken into consideration in National Action Plan of GHG and National

Inventory of GHG under Presidential Decree No. 61 year 2011 and No. 71 year 2011. It is our hope that

further research in Blue Carbon could be followed up by actions to enable of marine and fisheries

sector contribute for government commitment to reduce GHG emission for 26% by 2020.

The other important development to respon climate change, Indonesia has been established

Indonesian IPCC and School of Climate Change in order to encourage the scientific and academia

community involvement. Additionally, National Summit on Climate Change carried out in 2011 and

2012 and will be conducted annually as a forum to report related Minister regarding the achievement

of national progress in emission reduction and to facilitate the information exchange among national

stakeholders.

Ladies and Gentlemen,

The problems and challenges associated with global climate change are immense. Recent technology

development, including the local wisdom, which supported by the regulation and program will offer

solutions for the implementation of adaptation actions. However, development of these solutions will

take sustained investment in terms of networking, capacity building, community empowering and also

fundamental research at the universities.

P a g e | 32

I hope with these brief remarks, we will have broader mind on the role of government, stakeholders,

community, and science community in responding and combating climate change impacts. I believe

that this symposium, which has covered partners of the APRU, will give the opportunity to discuss and

share the experiences in identifying problems and its solutions and hopefully will continue to work

closely in the future.

Thank you.

Prof. DR. Balthasar Kambuaya, MBA.

Appendix 9. Symposium Statement

Outcomes from the International symposium on Coastal Cities, Marine Resources and Climate

Change in the Coral Triangle

Co-hosted by the APRU Sustainability and Climate Change Program and University of Indonesia

Research Centre for Climate Change

4-5 July 2013

Preamble

This two-day international symposium has focused on research priorities and policy development required

to address climate change, with particular emphasis on the relationship between coastal cities and marine

resources in the Coral Triangle. It was co-organised by the University of Indonesia and the Association of

Pacific Rim Universities (APRU), in partnership with the Ministry for Marine Affairs and Fisheries, the

Ministry of Environment and the Coral Triangle Initiative –Indonesia. More than 100 researchers, students,

and representatives of corporations, government and government agencies actively participated in the

symposium. These included international climate researchers from Brunei, the Philippines, Australia,

Malaysia, Singapore, and the United States of America, together with colleagues at the University of

Indonesia. All these are member universities of the Association of Pacific Rim Universities (APRU).

Statement

The archipelago of Indonesia is extremely vulnerable to the multiple impacts of climate change. Whilst

good policy work has been done, effective implementation will require an on-going program of work

involving research, policy development and implementation – the ”knowledge-action approach”. Because

impacts vary across Indonesia, and different impacts affect different communities in different ways, that

research needs to be developed in conjunction with regional as well as national government, business and

local communities.

This symposium follows a prior Workshop on climate change organised by the University of Indonesia and

APRU in 2010. Since then there has been notable progress in the development of government policy and

the establishment of implementation mechanisms both in relation to limiting greenhouse gas emissions

and preparing to adapt to the impacts of climate change. In addition, the Research Centre for Climate

Change (RCCC) announced at the previous Symposium is now in action with a staff of 30 who are

contributing already to policy formation.

Since 2010 the challenge from climate change has also increased. Scientific monitoring shows that over

that period the rate of greenhouse gas emissions to the atmosphere has increased steadily, the likely

global temperature rise as a consequence threatens to be greater, and the impacts – whether from sea

level rise, storm surge, acidification of the oceans, and other aspects of climate change will be more

severe. This symposium focussed in particular on the impacts of climate change on the oceans, and their

implications for the countries of the Pacific, and in particular Indonesia.

All oceans are being destabilised by climate change. Ocean temperatures are increasing, the oceans are

acidifying, sea level is rising and ocean currents and storm surge intensity are changing. Indonesia shares

the threats posed by an increasingly destabilised ocean.

The Pacific Ocean is the source of some 60 per cent of the world’s captured fish catch, representing some

20 per cent of the world’s consumed protein. Access to food is a central determinant of the level of

vulnerability of impoverished populations. Across the Pacific, rising temperatures and extreme weather

P a g e | 36

events have already contributed to loss of crop yield in many countries. Crop yields are currently projected

to decline by a further 10 percent by 2020.

Demand for seafood is increasing rapidly but the tonnage of captured fish has peaked and is declining.

Whilst aquaculture did grow rapidly since the1970s, partly filling the gap, the growth rate of aquaculture

is now declining. Both fisheries and aquaculture now face further threats from climate change.

As a significant consumer and producer of fish, Indonesia needs to manage its fisheries in the face of

their destabilized environment. Prior models and methods based on past experience will no longer be

reliable. New tools are needed to meet every Pacific Nation’s aspirations, including Indonesia’s, to

manage its fisheries sustainably, and protect aquaculture production. International collaboration can

help develop the new methods, models and tools required.

During the symposium a wide range of other opportunities were identified for assisting Indonesia and

other Pacific rim countries to meet identified climate challenges. Notably:

- Around the region, many of the largest and most vulnerable coastal cities are built on estuaries.

The impacts of the cities on the estuarine environments in the face of climate change associated sea

level rise and floods, need to be monitored, compared, understood and managed.

- Many of Indonesia’s big cities are faced by flooding. Indonesia can benefit from collaborative

research to predict flooding events through downscaled climate models combined with hydrological

modelling. APRU has in the past worked to develop such modelling

- Government presentations to the conference recognise the increasingly well understood fact that to

be effective, mitigation and adaptation policies have to be informed by, and take into account local

knowledge, priorities and capabilities. At the same time each local and regional community should

be informed by the best science so it can formulate effective action to meet the major implications

of that science for the economic, environmental and social well being of the community. This

“knowledge-action” approach needs to be developed further and supported by well crafted

processes of communication and learning. The APRU-SCC collaboration with the University of

Indonesia is focussed on developing this sort of work. We identify the potential for Indonesia to act

as a leader in the Asia-Pacific Region in developing this vital approach.

- International collaboration can provide an “up-scaled” integrated summary of the outcomes of

different approaches to solving local challenges. Developing such a summary is important in

building learning so that potential traps are avoided, and best practice is identified. In the task of

transforming policy into implemented action, Government agencies would gain great benefit from

the creation of such an integrated summary, developed across communities facing similar

challenges.

- A pressing issue for implementation of policy is to understand better the opportunities that exist to

shape behaviour change at local level, whether it be in relation to the management of fisheries or

mangroves, or the clearing of land. Collaborative research in this area and collation of examples of

best practice is an important potential interdisciplinary study.

- Transferring policy into action requires methods of ensuring that agreed outcomes are actually

delivered. International experience should assist in devising effective mechanisms for achieving this.

For example, Singapore offers examples in its Climate Change Adaptation Projects of how this can

be done where performance against deliverable targets is monitored quarterly, with funding only

continued where deliverables are achieved.

P a g e | 37

The symposium demonstrated the considerable knowledge, and energetic knowledge-action capacities

already in place in the University of Indonesia, Indonesian government agencies and NGOs. But no country

is equipped to analyse the complex interrelated challenges fully, any more than they can respond

effectively alone. International collaboration is needed to build successful responses to climate change.

This is especially so in building a greater understanding of how to apply knowledge-action methodology

and harmonise its outcomes between localities, and across different jurisdictions.

We identify two major interconnected opportunities for magnifying our capacities through research

collaboration.

(i) The University of Indonesia and its Research Centre for Climate Change, together with the Indonesian

Government and business community has the opportunity to benefit from international collaboration

in building its capacity for knowledge action to meet the challenges of climate change.

(ii) As demonstrated by this international symposium, there is already a vigorous engagement developing

between the University of Indonesia, the Indonesian Government, and the Association of Pacific Rim

Universities, which includes 42 of the leading research universities across the Pacific Rim. APRU’s

Sustainability and Climate Change research program can be utilised to help deliver timely research on

shared challenges from climate change.

These opportunities - if supported by appropriate funding from government, international agencies, and

the private sector - provide a powerful capacity for Indonesia to address the climate change challenges,

and utilise the opportunities to become a global leader in the development of a low-carbon, but high life-

quality, economy.

The participation of government leaders and senior APRU-SCC researchers in this Workshop indicates the

importance of climate change issues to Indonesia and the entire Pacific Rim community. The task now is

to ensure that the pressing challenges of climate change to Indonesia are effectively responded to by

seizing the opportunities identified at this international symposium.

Metrotvnews.com, Jakarta: Kementrian Kelautan dan Perikanan (KKP)

mencatat Indonesia memiliki luas terumbu karang sekitar 51.000 km2 atau 18%

dari total luas terumbu karang dunia. Namun sayangnya Indonesia juga salah

satu negara dengan status terumbu karang yang paling terancam di dunia.

Selama 50 tahun terakhir, proporsi penurunan kondisi terumbu karang Indonesia

telah meningkat dari 10% menjadi 50% berdasarkan laporan Reef at Risk pada

2002.

Adapun hasil survey Lembaga Ilmu Pengetahuan Indonesia (LIPI) hingga akhir

2012 menyebutkan hanya 30% terumbu karang Indonesia dalam kondisi baik,

37% dalam kondisi sedang, dan 33% sisanya rusak parah. Pemantauan terumbu

karang tersebut dilakukan LIPI di 77 daerah yang tersebar dari Sabang hingga

Kepulauan Raja Ampat.

Menteri Kelautan dan Perikanan Sharif Cicip Sutardjo mengatakan berbagai

tantangan konservasi terumbu karang di antaranya tuntutan pemenuhan

kebutuhan manusia akan hasil laut sehingga berdampak pada penggunaan

sumber daya pesisir serta kelautan berlebihan, juga dampak perubahan iklim.

"Perubahan iklim terutama berdampak cukup signifikan pada nelayan dan pola

migrasi ikan di wilayah pesisir. Selain itu perubahan iklim menyebabkan naiknya

suhu dan permukaan air laut dan asidifikasi air laut yang berdampak langsung

pada terganggunya ekosistem pendukung terumbu karang," jelas Sharif dalam

simposium terkait konservasi terumbu karang di Hotel Sultan, Kamis (4/7).

Sebagai struktur hidup yang terbentuk dari susunan kalsium karbonat ratusan

tahun silam, peran terumbu karang ternyata amat penting menunjang kestabilan

ekosistem sekitarnya. Terdapat ribuan spesies yang hidup di kawasan terumbu

karang seperti lebih dari 2500 jenis ikan, 590 jenis karang batu, 2500 jenis

Moluska, dan 1500 jenis udang-udangan.

Sharif mengungkapkan Indonesia termasuk memiliki kawasan terumbu karang

paling kaya sedunia dengan total keuntungan pendapatan keuntungan

pendapatan sebesar US$1,6 milyar/tahun baik dari hasil tanggapan laut yang

ditopang terumbu karang maupun pariwisatanya. Nilai keseluruhan pelayanan

dan sumber dayanya sendiri diperkirakan mencapai setidaknya US$ 61,9

milyar/tahun

Selain bernilai luar biasa secara ekonomi, terumbu karang Indonesia turut

menopang keseimbangan ekosistem lautan dunia. Bila habis, berbagai spesies

yang dimilikinya ikut musnah yang menyebabkan kestabilan ekosistem lautan

dan pesisir terganggu.

Untuk melindungi aset yang luar biasa ini serta memenuhi keperluan mendesak

penyelamatan terumbu karang di Indonesia, menurut Sharif, Indonesia telah

mengukuhkan komitmen di dunia internasional.

Menurutnya, Indonesia telah menjadi salah satu negara peserta Coral Triangle

Jakarta, 4/7 (ANTARA) - Dalam beberapadasa warsa ada peningkatan dampak negatifberupa kerusakan sumberdaya pesisir danlingkungan laut sebagai akibat pemanfaatansumberdaya alam yang berlebihan dan tidakbertanggung jawab. Kondisi tersebut diperparahdengan dampak perubahan iklim terhadapsumberdaya alam dan sumberdaya manusia diwilayah pesisir. Perubahan iklim berdampakcukup signifikan kepada para nelayan, berupacuaca ekstrim yang semakin sering dan tidakdapat diprediksi, perubahan pola migrasi ikandan daerah tangkapan. Selain daripada itu,perubahan iklim juga mengakibatkan kenaikansuhu permukaan air laut, kenaikan paras mukaair laut dan asidifikasi air laut.

Menurut Menteri Kelautan dan Perikanan RI,Sharif C. Sutardjo dampak perubahan iklim dapatditunda dengan melakukan dua hal utama yaituupaya mitigasi dan adaptasi. Sebagai upaya

mitigasi, pemerintah Indonesia telah menetapkan target menurunkan emisi gas rumah kaca sebesar26% secara mandiri dan 41% dengan bantuan internasional pada tahun 2020. Sedangkan upayaadaptasi dilakukan dengan cara perbaikan pengelolaan sumberdaya pesisir dan laut sehinggakerusakan sumberdaya dapat dikurangi atau bahkan dipulihkan. Upaya pemulihan yang sudah danakan terus dilakukan oleh pemerintah antara lain melarang penangkapan ikan dengan caramerusak. Selanjutnya , mengurangi polusi dan sedimentasi, meningkatkan kualitas sumberdayapesisir dan laut melalui upaya rehabilitasi, membangun dan mengelola secara efektif kawasankonservasi laut, serta meningkatkan upaya konservasi jenis ikan. "Pemerintah juga telahmenerapkan pendekatan pengelolaan perikanan berbasis ekosistem," jelas MenKP . ketikamembuka Symposium internasional tentang Coastal cities, Marine resources and Climate Change inCoral Triangle: Sustainability and Climate Change. Climate Change and Challenges in MarineResources di Indonesia.

Sharif menegaskan, komitmen pemerintah untuk mengantisipasi dampak perubahan iklim terusdilakukan. Bahkan pada tingkat desa, pemerintah melalui KKP telah mengembangkan program yangberfokus pada peningkatan ketangguhan masyarakat pesisir. Program tersebut dinamakanPengembangan Desa Pesisir Tangguh. Program ini terdiri dari 5 aspek yaitu Bina Manusia,Pengembangan Mata Pencaharian Alternatif, Perbaikan Lingkungan dan Infrastruktur skala kecil,Pengembangan Kelembagaan, dan Peningkatan Ketahanan Masyarakat terhadap Perubahan Iklimdan Bencana Alam. "Diharapkan dengan terwujudnya Desa Pesisir Tangguh pada setiap wilayah,maka akan terwujud pula Kabupaten dan Kota Pesisir Tangguh serta Provinsi Tangguh yang padaakhirnya menuju Indonesia Tangguh," tandasnya.

Komitmen Regional dan Internasional

Pemerintah Indonesia, tandas Sharif, juga telah melakukan upaya - upaya pengelolaanberkelanjutan sumberdaya pesisir dan laut pada tingkat Regional maupun Internasional. Salah satuyang cukup intensif dilakukan pada 6 tahun terakhir ini adalah Coral Triangle Initiative on CoralReefs, Fisheries, and Food Security atau disingkat CTI-CFF. CTI - CFF merupakan kerjasamaregional 6 negara yaitu Indonesia, Malaysia, Filipina, Solomon Island, Timor-Leste, dan PapuaNugini untuk konservasi dan pengelolaan berkelanjutan sumberdaya pesisir dan laut di kawasanCoral Triangle. Coral Triangle merupakan pusat keanekaragaman hayati laut dunia. Sebagai upayauntuk pengelolaan berkelanjutan sumberdaya pesisir dan laut kawasan tersebut, ke 6 negara telahmenyepakati Regional Plan of Action. "Terdapat 5 tujuan Regional Plan of Action, yaitu penetapandan pengelolan efektif kawasan bentang laut prioritas. Kedua, penerapan pendekatan ekosistemuntuk pengelolaan perikanan. Ketiga, penetapan dan pengelolaan efektif kawasan konservasi laut.Keempat, upaya adaptasi perubahan iklim, dan kelima, perbaikan status dan kondisi spesiesterancam punah," paparnya.

Sharif menambahkan, untuk menjawab tantangan perubahan iklim KKP telah mengadopsi konsep

HARIAN PELITA

Pemerintah Komitmen Lindungi Sumberdaya kelautan

Jakarta, Pelita

Komitmen pemerintah untuk mengantisipasi dampak perubahan iklim terus dilakukan. Bahkan di tingkat desa, pemerintah telah mengembangkan program yang fokus

pada peningkatan ketangguhan masyarakat pesisir.

Kementerian Kelautan dan Perikanan (KKP) kerja sama dengan Universitas Indonesia (UI) dalam pengelolaan pulau-pulau kecil terluar untuk mendukung program

adopsi pulau. Pulau yang dipilih dalam kerja sama ini adalah Pulau Larat, Kabupaten Maluku Tenggara Barat, Propinsi Maluku.

"Pulau Larat adalah salah satu dari 92 pulau kecil terluar berpenduduk dan berbatasan langsung dengan Australia," kata Menteri Kelautan dan Perikanan Sharif Cicip

Sutardjo ketika membuka simposium internasional tentang Coastal cities, Marine resources and Climate Change in Coral Triangle: Sustainability and Climate Change.

Climate Change and Challenges in Marine Resources di Indonesia, Jakarta, Kamis (4/7).

Ia menjelaskan, sebagai wilayah terdepan yang masuk kawasan strategis nasional, Pulau larat harus dikembangkan dan diberdayakan melalui program komprehensif,

terpadu, dan berkelanjutan.

Dalam mendukung adopsi pulau, KKP sebelumnya juga telah menandatangani kerja sama kesepakatan bersama dengan Kementerian BUMN dan BP Migas. Juga

perjanjian kerja sama dengan beberapa perguruan tinggi dan lembaga non-frofil. Diantaranya, IPB dalam pengembangan Pulau Nusakambangan, Kabupaten Cilacap

dan Pulau Subi Kecil, Kabupaten Natuna.

Dengan Universitas Hasanuddin (UNHAS) untuk Pulau Sebatik, Kabupaten Nunukan, Institut Teknologi Sepuluh Nopember (ITS) untuk Pulau Maratua Kabupaten

Berau dan Pulau Poteran, Kabupaten Sumenep.

Univerasitas Diponegoro untuk Pulau Karimun Kecil, Kabupaten Karimun serta Yayasan Kalpatma Universitas Gadjah Mada untuk Pulau Alor di NTT.

Sedangkan pengelolaan 31 pulau kecil berpenduduk lainnya akan terus dilakukan kerja sama dengan perguruan tinggi lainnya di Indonesia.

Dalam beberapa dasa warsa ini, kata Sharif, ada peningkatan dampak negatif berupa kerusakan sumberdaya pesisir dan lingkungan laut sebagai akibat

pemanfaatan sumberdaya alam yang berlebihan dan tidak bertanggung jawab. Kondisi itu diperparah dengan dampak perubahan iklim terhadap sumberdaya alam dan

sumberdaya manusia di wilayah pesisir.

Pemerintah Indonesia telah melakukan upaya pengelolaan berkelanjutan sumberdaya pesisir dan laut di tingkat regional maupun internasional.

Salah satu yang cukup intensif dilakukan pada enam tahun terakhir ini adalah Coral Triangle Initiative on Coral Reefs, Fisheries, and Food Security atau disingkat CTI-

CFF. CTI-CFF merupakan kerja sama regional enam negara yaitu Indonesia, Malaysia, Filipina, Solomon Island, Timor-Leste, dan Papua Nugini untuk konservasi dan

pengelolaan berkelanjutan sumberdaya pesisir dan laut di kawasan Coral Triangle. (cr-1)

JAKARTA- Menteri Kelautan dan Perikanan (MKP) RI, Sharif C.Sutardjo menegaskan, perubahan iklim berdampak cukup signifikankepada para nelayan. Namun perubahan iklim dapat ditunda denganmelakukan dua hal utama yaitu upaya mitigasi dan adaptasi.

“Upaya mitigasi, pemerintah Indonesia telah menetapkan targetpenurunkan emisi gas rumah kaca sebesar 26% secara mandiri dan41% dengan bantuan internasional pada tahun 2020. Sedangkanupaya adaptasi dilakukan dengan cara perbaikan pengelolaansumberdaya pesisir dan laut sehingga kerusakan sumberdaya dapatdikurangi atau bahkan dipulihkan,”jelas Sharif ketika membukaSymposium internasional tentang Coastal cities, Marine resources andClimate Change in Coral Triangle: Sustainability and Climate Change.Climate Change and Challenges in Marine Resources di Indonesia.

Upaya selanjutnya sambung dia, adalah dengan mengurangi polusidan sedimentasi, meningkatkan kualitas sumberdaya pesisir dan lautmelalui upaya rehabilitasi, membangun dan mengelola secara efektifkawasan konservasi laut, serta meningkatkan upaya konservasi jenisikan.

Menerapkan pendekatan pengelolaan perikanan berbasis ekosistemdan mengembangkan program yang berfokus pada peningkatanketangguhan masyarakat pesisir. Program tersebut dinamakanPengembangan Desa Pesisir Tangguh.

“Program ini terdiri dari 5 aspek yaitu Bina Manusia, PengembanganMata Pencaharian Alternatif, Perbaikan Lingkungan dan Infrastrukturskala kecil, Pengembangan Kelembagaan, dan PeningkatanKetahanan Masyarakat terhadap Perubahan Iklim dan BencanaAlam,”papar dia.

Sharif berharap dengan terwujudnya Desa Pesisir Tangguh padasetiap wilayah, maka akan terwujud pula Kabupaten dan Kota PesisirTangguh serta Provinsi Tangguh yang pada akhirnya menujuIndonesia Tangguh.

Pemerintah Indonesia, tandas Sharif, juga telah melakukan upaya –upaya pengelolaan berkelanjutan sumberdaya pesisir dan laut padatingkat Regional maupun Internasional. Salah satu yang cukup intensifdilakukan pada 6 tahun terakhir ini adalah Coral Triangle Initiative onCoral Reefs, Fisheries, and Food Security atau disingkat CTI-CFF.

CTI-CFF merupakan kerjasama regional 6 negara yaitu Indonesia,Malaysia, Filipina, Solomon Island, Timor-Leste, dan Papua Nuginiuntuk konservasi dan pengelolaan berkelanjutan sumberdaya pesisirdan laut di kawasan Coral Triangle. Coral Triangle merupakan pusatkeanekaragaman hayati laut dunia.

Fungsinya sebagai upaya untuk pengelolaan berkelanjutansumberdaya pesisir dan laut kawasan tersebut, ke 6 negara telahmenyepakati Regional Plan of Action.

”Terdapat 5 tujuan Regional Plan of Action, yaitu penetapan danpengelolan efektif kawasan bentang laut prioritas. Kedua, penerapanpendekatan ekosistem untuk pengelolaan perikanan. Ketiga,penetapan dan pengelolaan efektif kawasan konservasi laut.Keempat, upaya adaptasi perubahan iklim, dan kelima, perbaikanstatus dan kondisi spesies terancam punah,” tandas Sharif. (rp)
