The
Deutsche Gesellschaft fuer Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH is a
German international cooperation enterprise for sustainable development
with worldwide operations. In order to fulfill Indonesia´s
international
commitments in reducing national greenhouse gas emissions in the
transport sector as the third largest source of energy-related CO2
emission in Indonesia, a new project will be launched: “NAMA SUTRI”

Urban Transport in Indonesia). The programme is developed by the
Ministry of Transport with the assistance of GIZ. It has been awarded
through the NAMA FACILITY, which is funded by the UK Department of
Energy & Climate Change as well as the German Federal
Ministry for the Environment (BMUB).
NAMA SUTRI
aims in its pilot phase to contribute to climate change mitigation
through establishing funding mechanisms for the financial promotion of
sustainable urban infrastructure development as well as the
provision of technical advisory services on such projects to seven
pilot cities.
In a pilot

promotion with specific focus on public transport improvement, parking
