Summary:

EU-Indonesia relations are gradually intensifying, and political dialogue and partnership have replaced traditional development cooperation. The EUICF would provide a tool to advance the relationship and translate political commitments into concrete actions. The Facility will be driven by the EU strategic interests and should be aligned with the mutual shared interest of Indonesia as a partner country.

The overall objective of the project is to enhance the EU-Indonesia partnership.

Specific Objectives: 

• Continue and reinforce EU-Indonesia relations and policy dialogues
• Promote an increased alignment between EU-Indonesia interests, principles, policies, and values, including human rights and gender equality, with a particular focus on the 2030 Agenda and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)
• Build increased awareness, understanding and approval of the EU and its role in Indonesia, the region and the world
• Enhance climate, biodiversity and environmental management, mainstreaming and monitoring, as well as conservation, sustainable, management use and restoration of natural resources.
