The Government of Indonesia
established a national trust fund mechanism called the Indonesian Climate
Change Trust Fund (ICCTF) in 2009 to attract, facilitate, and coordinate
financial support for climate change related activities. ICCTF is the first integrated
financial mechanism for Indonesia’s national policies and programs on
addressing climate change and has been in operation since 2010.
