        "content": "<p>Jakarta (ANTARA) - Indonesia has reaffirmed its commitment to\nstrengthening the ocean-climate nexus through marine conservation, blue\ncarbon, and coastal resilience on the sidelines of the UN General\nAssembly in New York.<\/p>\n<p>According to a press release from the Indonesian Ministry of Foreign\nAffairs in Jakarta on Friday, this commitment will be further reinforced\nthrough Presidential Regulation No.\u00a0110\/2025, which strengthens the role\nof the marine and fisheries sector in national climate change\nmitigation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe ocean is a central element of climate action. International\ncooperation based on the principles of equality and a just transition is\nessential to strengthen ocean-based climate solutions,\u201d said the\nDirector General of Legal and International Agreements at the Indonesian\nMinistry of Foreign Affairs, Ambassador Ricky Suhendar.<\/p>\n<p>This Indonesian position was presented by Ricky during the Annual\nMeeting of the Leaders of the High-Level Panel for a Sustainable Ocean\nEconomy (Leaders\u2019 Meeting of the Ocean Panel) on 23 September 2026.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, during the meeting, Indonesia also encouraged the Ocean\nPanel to play a strategic role in two key areas: ocean financing and\nocean accounting.<\/p>\n<p>Ocean financing is required to translate ocean-climate action\ncommitments into tangible implementation. Meanwhile, strengthening ocean\naccounting is vital to support data-driven and evidence-based\npolicymaking.<\/p>\n<p>Indonesia also emphasised its commitment to strengthening\ninternational collaboration to preserve the ocean as a sustainable\nclimate solution for future generations, while promoting concrete steps\ntowards fair, equitable, and inclusive ocean governance.<\/p>\n<p>This year\u2019s Ocean Panel meeting carries the theme \u201cOcean-Climate\nLeadership on the Road to COP31 UNFCCC\u201d, focusing on strengthening\nleadership and cooperation to accelerate the implementation of\nocean-climate nexus actions leading up to COP31 in Antalya, T\u00fcrkiye,\nfrom 9\u201320 November 2026.<\/p>\n<p>The Ocean Panel was initiated in 2018 by Norway, and Indonesia is one\nof its founding members.<\/p>\n<p>Currently, the Ocean Panel consists of 19 countries that collectively\nrepresent approximately 50 per cent of the world\u2019s coastlines and 45 per\ncent of the global Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ).<\/p>\n<p>The Ocean Panel has produced various action agendas, studies, and\npolicy recommendations to promote a sustainable ocean economy, including\nthe so-called Transformation Towards a Sustainable Ocean Economy, as\nwell as various Blue Papers and thematic reports.<\/p>",
