        "content": "<p>Minister of National Development Planning\/Head of the National\nDevelopment Planning Agency (PPN\/Bappenas) Rachmat Pambudy stated that\nresolving climate challenges requires the implementation of mutually\ncomplementary cross-sector development. \u201cThe marine and coastal sector,\ncoastal protection infrastructure development, the application of\nnature-based solutions, and the strengthening of spatial planning based\non disaster mitigation and risk,\u201d he said in a statement received in\nJakarta on Monday. While delivering a scientific oration entitled\nSustainable Development Goals (SDGs), Sustainable Development, and the\nRole of Higher Education: Towards a Golden Indonesia 2045, in the\ncontext of the 61st Dies Natalis at Semarang State University (UNNES),\nCentral Java, he also conveyed how cross-sector development also needs\nto be carried out for the water resources and agriculture sectors. For\nthe water resources sector, according to him, it is necessary to\nstrengthen water stocks by increasing technological efficiency through\nwater conservation and the application of water accounting principles.\nMeanwhile, in the agriculture sector, the application of smart\nagriculture needs to be continued. On that occasion, he emphasised the\nfundamental principle of the 2030 SDGs agenda, namely the principle of\nequity in economic growth or leaving no one behind. Amid the triple\nplanetary crisis challenges hitting the world, he continued, Indonesia\nhas successfully completed 153, or 62.7 percent, of the 244 indicators\nevaluated in the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) Programme in\nIndonesia. This achievement is supported by a commitment to integrate\nthe SDGs into the national development planning system, both in the\nNational Medium-Term Development Plan (RPJMN) and the Government Work\nPlan (RKP), so that the SDGs become part of the national development\nplanning, budgeting, implementation, and evaluation cycle. Therefore, he\ncontinued, cross-sector collaboration is necessary, including with\nuniversities. \u201cUNNES has also taken a strong role in the SDGs agenda,\nparticularly through education, research and innovation, and community\nservice. UNNES is committed to presenting data related to the\nimplementation and achievements of the SDGs transparently through the\nSDGs Dashboard,\u201d said Rachmat. This commitment was strengthened by the\nsigning of a Memorandum of Understanding between the Ministry of\nPPN\/Bappenas and UNNES concerning Collaboration on National Development\nPlanning through Education, Research, and Community Service. On the same\noccasion, Minister Rachmat Pambudy received the UNNES Conservation Award\n2026: Upakarti Dharmakarya Pranata Bhuana. The award was given to\nappreciate the contribution and dedication of the Head of Bappenas in\nformulating and overseeing the implementation of the SDGs in Indonesia,\nas well as his role in building Indonesia over four decades to date.\n\u201cUniversities must position themselves not only as educational\ninstitutions, but as catalysts for sustainable development, and our\nchallenge going forward is to ensure that innovation does not stop in\nthe laboratory. Universities must be transformed into real solutions.\nLet us bequeath forests that remain green, rivers that flow clear, air\nthat remains clean, and an earth that remains preserved for the lives of\nour children and grandchildren,\u201d he said.<\/p>",
