Indonesia’s National Development Planning Agency (Bappenas) is implementing long-term strategic frameworks to drive national economic growth and environmental sustainability.

To reach an 8 percent growth target by 2029, Bappenas is emphasizing synergy between central and regional governments. The agency is moving away from ‘one size fits all’ policies in favor of tailored regional planning that addresses specific local characteristics, such as industry in Java or education and health in Papua. This approach aims to optimize productive spending and expand economic bases across the archipelago.

In conjunction with these economic goals, Bappenas has launched the Blue Carbon Ecosystem Protection and Management Roadmap for 2026–2045. This initiative seeks to integrate the protection of coastal ecosystems, including mangroves and seagrass beds, into cross-sectoral development planning. The roadmap focuses on five pillars: integrated policies, scientific research, diverse funding schemes, and community empowerment. The objective is to ensure blue carbon serves as a “social welfare asset” that provides economic benefits to coastal communities while supporting ecosystem regeneration.
