IFAD in Indonesia
Since 1980, IFAD has extended loans to the Republic of Indonesia for 14 programmes and projects totalling US$383.7 million. Eleven of the programmes and projects have been completed, and three are ongoing. IFAD has also funded a number of country and regional grants to support investment projects in the country. In December 2008, the IFAD Executive Board approved the country strategic opportunities programme (COSOP) for Indonesia for the period 2009 to 2013. The goal of IFAD’s interventions in the country is to empower poor rural women and men to enhance their food security, increase their incomes and reduce poverty.

Our programmes help reduce the vulnerability of smallholders to external shocks that could be precipitated by climatic extremes as a result of climate change, natural disasters or volatile global markets. They focus particularly on meeting the needs and sponsoring the interests of ethnic minority communities and indigenous peoples. IFAD’s specific strategic objectives are to:
