The Ministry of Environment and Forestry has started work on revising the National Forestry Plan (RKTN) 2011 - 2030. This revision is seen as essential to ensuring that the plan remains relevant, effective and in line with current national priorities and international commitments. Based on existing regulations, the Forestry Plan must be evaluated during its implementation in order to measure the effectiveness and efficiency of the plan’s various established activities. These evaluations are carried out at least once every five years, while the revision process involves comprehensive evaluations of the current plan. The evaluations take account of any changes that have been made to regulations, policies and performance over the past five years in order to provide a roadmap for sustainable forestry development within Indonesia until 2030.

In line with these goals, the Directorate-General of Forestry Planning and Environmental Management (DG PKTL) MoEF, supported by FOLU Net Sink’s 2023 Project and FORCLIME, organized a two-day meeting that was held from 2 – 4 July 2024 in Jakarta. The purpose of the event was to coordinate and harmonize plans with stakeholders operating within the forestry sector, as well as to discuss directions, policies, strategies and targets for forest management and forestry administration. The goal was to gather input from relevant parties in order to provide inputs for the revision of the RKTN for the 2011 – 2030 period.

As a follow-up to this meeting, the DG PKTL will organize a series of FGDs in order to further refine its plans that will be held with relevant stakeholders and experts in order to ensure the document's accuracy, relevance and alignment with current forestry management objectives and policies.
