Muaro Jambi — As part of the socialization of the Result-Based Payment (RBP) phase of the BioCarbond Fund—Initiative for Sustainable Forest Landscape (BioCF-ISFL) program to districts/cities in Jambi Province, the implementation team conducted an official visit to the districts/cities in Muaro Jambi. This activity took place on December 8, 2025, at the Muaro Jambi Regency Regional Development Planning Agency (Bappeda) office.
The visit aimed to convey the latest developments in the BioCF-ISFL program, specifically regarding the RBP stages, the regional government's readiness to prepare RBP proposals in accordance with the Benefit Sharing Plan (BSP) Document, and to identify various obstacles faced at the district level.
During the socialization activity, participants received a comprehensive presentation on the stages of the BioCF-ISFL program, including the preparation phase, pre-investment phase, and RBP phase. Additionally, the status of key supporting documents, such as the Emission Reduction Program Document (ERPD), Benefit Sharing Mechanism (BSM), Safeguards, and Environmental and Social Due Diligence (ESDD), was also discussed.
The Muaro Jambi Regency Government also gained an understanding of the revised Emission Reduction Payment Agreement (ERPA) target, now set at 10 million tons CO2e. Participants received a detailed explanation of the RBP proposal development mechanism, the screening process by the Regency Environmental Agency (DLH), and the importance of program synchronization with the Village Medium-Term Development Plan (RPJM Desa) and the Regency RPMJD.
Furthermore, the socialization also covered the Measurement, Analysis, and Reporting (MAR) process, from collecting data on land cover, forest and land fires, Near Real-Time (NRT) monitoring, spatial analysis using BioCF Tools, to preparing emission reduction reports. Material on safeguards, environmental documents, and the Feedback and Grievance Redress Mechanism (FGRM) was also presented and received a positive response from the Regional Apparatus Organizations (OPD) and stakeholders in attendance.
As a result of this activity, the Muaro Jambi Regency Working Group (Pokja) expressed its commitment to strengthening the role of the Safeguards secretariat, Monitoring and Evaluation (MONEV), and the village proposal verification process in supporting RBP implementation.
Overall, the BioCF-ISFL RBP Program socialization in Muaro Jambi Regency went smoothly and was deemed to have provided participants with a stronger understanding. While technical capacity building is still needed, particularly in MAR, safeguards, and land cover data updates, this activity provided a crucial foundation for the follow-up development and verification of RBP proposals at the district level.
