The Deutsche Gesellschaft für InternationaleZusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH is an
international cooperation enterprise forsustainable development with worldwide
operations. Its corporate objective isto improve people’s living conditions on
a sustainable basis. GIZ has beenworking in Indonesia since 1975 on behalf of
the German Federal Ministry forEconomic Cooperation and Development (BMZ).
The project ‘"Emissions reduction in citiesthrough improved waste management
(DKTI)" has been commissioned by theGerman Federal Ministry for Economic
Cooperation and Development (BMZ) with animplementation period until July 2023.
This project would respond to theproblem faced by Indonesia concerning waste
management and tackling greenhousegas emission. With its large population
(around 270 million people), Indonesiais one of largest emitters of greenhouse
gas in the world, with unmanaged wastecontributes for over 6% of total GHG
emissions. In the world, Indonesia ranks6th in terms of GHG emission from
waste. The main reasons are the dumping ofuntreated organic waste in landfills,
open burning of waste, poor segregationand recycling rates.
The project aims to support the implementation ofsuitable waste management
systems by improving required conditions in the nationaland municipal levels.
Thus, the project works with 3 outputs working inmunicipalities/cities level
and national level. The outputs representimprovement of technical know-how in
value chain of waste management,improvement of waste and greenhouse gas (GHG)
emission data, and enablingfinancing of improved waste management.
