Indonesia is implementing multi-sectoral strategies to transition toward a green industry and achieve net-zero emissions by 2050. Initial efforts focused on the Ministry of Industry’s push for improved post-consumer packaging management, specifically targeting the circular economy through PET bottle recycling and industrial decarbonization roadmaps for manufacturing subsectors like food and beverage.

These initiatives have expanded to include academic and educational integration. Research efforts in green chemistry are being strengthened through programs like the Global Greenchem Innovation and Network Program (GGINP) to meet industrial needs. Additionally, regional authorities in Central Java are advocating for the inclusion of green industry concepts in high schools and vocational training to prepare a workforce skilled in energy efficiency and waste management.
