Organizational Context
The United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO) is the specialized United
Nations organization that promotes inclusive and sustainable industrial development in
developing and emerging economies. UNIDO aspires to reduce poverty through
industrialization that benefits all and respects environmental limits (www.unido.org).

UNIDO implements the global Resource Efficient and Cleaner Production (RECP)
Programme in close cooperation with the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP).
RECP concerns the application of preventive environmental techniques and productivity
practices with the triple aim of improving the productive use of materials, energy and
water; reducing the intensity of generation of wastes and emissions; and supporting human
development (in particular through improved occupational, community and consumers’
health and safety). The global Programme builds upon the achievements in establishing
National Cleaner Production Centres since 1995 in a total of over 55 developing and
transition countries. A global network of qualifying NCPCs and other RECP service
providers (RECPnet) has been established to foster knowledge management and
innovation, networking and peer-learning, quality control and branding (www.recpnet.org).

Project Context
This project post pertains to the National RECP Programme in Indonesia, which was
initiated in 2012 with funding support from the Government of Switzerland. The Ministry of
Environment and Forestry and the Ministry of Industry are the main governmental
counterparts in Indonesia. The primary target group comprises several categories of
enterprises, namely small scale industries (focused on agro/food processing, metal
products’ and textile sectors), industrial parks (focused on Batam, Makassar and possibly
Surabaya), tourism (focused on Sleman/Magelang and possibly N Sumatra/Lake Toba) and
micro-enterprises (already started in rice milling sector and possibly extending to others).
The enterprise demonstration activities are supported by project activities targeting
innovation (in particular towards eco-industrial parks/industrial symbiosis and green
chemistry and engineering), policy change and improved access to finance.
