overview

In May 2011, the Ministry of Forestry put into effect a two-year moratorium on the designation of new forest concessions in primary natural forests and peatlands. This moratorium is designed to allow time for the government to develop improved processes for land-use planning, strengthen information systems, and build institutions to achieve Indonesia’s low emission development goals. The two-year moratorium, renewed again in 2019, is part of Indonesia’s pledge to curtail forest clearing in a US $1 billion deal with the Norwegian government.<br><br>The first Indicative Moratorium Map (IMM) was published by the Ministry of Forestry in July 2011. The IMM is required to be revised every six months. This data set shows the Indicative Map for the Termination of the Granting of New Permits (PIPPIB) for Primary Natural Forest and Peatlands in 2020 Period I.
