FGD Action on Climate Change Adaptation and Mitigation Through the Climate Village Program

     The Climate Village Program (ProKlim) was launched as a national movement to control community-based climate change by the Minister of Environment and Forestry on 1 December 2016. ProKlim, which has been implemented since 2012, has transformed from giving appreciation to the lowest administrative areas at RW/RW level. hamlets and at the highest level at sub-district/village level, to encourage and facilitate the growth of Climate Villages through enriching innovations in climate change adaptation and mitigation programs implemented in collaboration between the government and Stakeholders.
     Proklim is carried out in order to encourage communities to increase their capacity to adapt to the impacts of climate change and reduce greenhouse gas emissions as well as to provide appreciation for climate change adaptation and mitigation efforts that have been implemented at the local level in accordance with regional conditions.
     Through ProKlim, it is hoped that efforts to increase resilience to the negative impacts of climate change as well as reduce greenhouse gas or GHG emissions can be carried out starting from the site level.
