Indonesia has identified 239,000 hectares of clear conservation areas available for carbon-linked restoration projects. This initiative aims to attract private investment to repair land damaged by deforestation and encroachment while creating new financing streams for environmental protection. The Ministry of Forestry is utilizing new regulations to bridge a 30 percent funding gap in conservation management. By treating carbon as an environmental service commodity, the government seeks to mobilize capital for restoration and conflict resolution across its conservation zones.
