2019 10 04 1G to G nego in Berlin small

On October 1st and 2nd 2019 Indonesian-German government negotiations were held in Berlin, as done regularly every second year. In the process, a comprehensive agreement could be reached on the future projects to be implemented in Indonesia and their financial volume. Subsequently, parts of the Indonesian delegation had the opportunity to participate in cluster-specific side events. Since the Environment and Forestry- cluster was supposed to inform about German forest management structures, business processes as well as the manifold tasks of Forest Management Units (FMU), FORCLIME organised and implemented a field trip accordingly.

Thus a group consisting of 1 representative of the Indonesian National Planning Agency (BAPPENAS) and 4 members of the Ministry of Environment and Forestry (KLHK) accompanied by a FORCLIME employee set off for the German federal state of Hesse on 3rd October to visit FMU Hanau-Wolfgang near Frankfurt. Although this day was a public holiday a guided tour through the wildlife park Klein-Auheim, a facility belonging to the FMU Hanau, could be arranged. On the following day, the director of the Forest Management Unit provided comprehensive information on the Hessian Forest Enterprise in general and the FMU Hanau in particular during a visit to his office. He then explained and demonstrated the company's strategy for sustainable management of the regional forests on the occasion of a field trip. Finally he introduced the visitors from Indonesia to the Provincial Forest Tree Seed Centre, which is an institution under supervision of the FMU as well.

On the last day of the stay in Germany the group took the opportunity to go on a city walk through Frankfurt in order to take some tourist impressions back to Indonesia. Here, some aspects of Frankfurt's Old Town and the atmosphere on the banks of the Main attracted particular interest.
