Mercy Corps International Job Vacancy: Book Maker - Indonesian

Mercy Corps Indonesia has been the ACCCRN implementing partner in Indonesia since 2009. ACCCRN has contributed to Indonesian climate change adaptation efforts in urban contexts, with a particular focus on poor and otherwise vulnerable communities. The program has worked intensively with two pilot cities, Bandar Lampung and Semarang, to insert Urban Climate Change Resilience (UCCR) into municipal development planning processes. Through this work, ACCCRN has engaged additional six cities from Cirebon, Blitar, Pekalongan, Probolinggo, Tarakan, and Palembang  that have demonstrated specific commitments towards the replication of ACCCRN. In addition, as a result of collaboration with APEKSI, more cities are exposed to the knowledge of climate resilience planning.

Through ACCCRN, Mercy Corps Indonesia and partners have built extensive local capacity through the establishment of a City Team in each pilot city consisting of government, academic and civil society partners. Each has been guided in development of a Vulnerability Assessment (VA), City Resilience Strategy (CRS), and support for proposal development and execution of CCA intervention projects. Although capacity building requires time and intensive guidance, results have been evidenced since 2011 by increasing government funds allocated to CCA.

Work consists primarily of stakeholder engagement, program and project development, capacity building, and mainstreaming climate change into sectors both inside and outside the government system. There has been close collaboration with many local stakeholders exerting significant influence in city development such as the municipal level departments covering development planning, environmental management, universities, private sector, and NGOs.

ACCCRN in Indonesia has been running since 2009 and the project implementation will finish in December 2016. This long and extensive journey of ACCCRN has shown many evidences of success stories in building climate change resilience in Indonesia.
