Policy Research

The economic growth of Kabupaten (District of) Kayong Utara (KKU), albeit quite high, has not exactly translated into inclusive economic development. Its relatively low Inclusive Economic Development Index (IEDI) score has put KKU in the 9th place among the 12 kabupaten in West Kalimantan Province.

For the 2011–2021 period, the Inclusive Economic Development Index (IEDI) of Kabupaten (District of) Ketapang was lower than Indonesia’s national average. Its economic growth rate, which was higher than both the national average and province, was not followed proportionally by a decrease in its poverty rate.

This project aims to enhance the capacity of local governments to achieve a harmonious energy transition in line with the national strategy within the framework of inclusive economic development.

This research looks especially at the extent to which social protection can be used as a policy instrument to enhance people’s adaptive capacity to deal with the new problems and issues caused by climate change.
