Introduction and Background
The national Peatland
Restoration Agency (Badan Restorasi
Gambut or BRG) was formed early 2016 by the President in response to the
massive forest and peat fires of 2015 which affected approximately 850,000 ha
of peatland. Sub-component 1.6 of the Berbak Green Prosperity Partnership
(BGPP) aims at institutional strengthening of BRG.
 
MCA Indonesia and BRG
on 6 March 2017 entered into an Implementing Entity Agreement (IEA) that aims
to support BRG with activities that are designed to mitigate risks associated
with the implementation of the peatland restoration components in the Green
Prosperity project currently in implementation, and complete the foundational
mapping and engineering work for additional peatland rewetting both during and
after the GP project is completed.
 
In line with the
Implementing Entity Agreement between MCA-I and BRG, aside from the BGPP two
other projects have been tendered separately by MCA-I. These two projects are
focussed on the following:
·        
Provision of
spatial information to establish the biophysical, social, legal, and
administrative condition of peatlands in targeted peatland areas in (i) Muaro
Jambi – Jambi, (ii) Tanjung Jabung Barat Timur – Jambi; and (iii) Kubu Raya –
West Kalimantan, including a) Work planning for peatland mapping, b) Peatland
data acquisition, c) Mapping data processing and d) Preparation of water flow
maps.
·        
Provision of
Technical Support for Detailed Engineering Designs (DED) and Free, Prior, and
Informed Consent (FPIC) for canal blocking structures in (i) “Block C” of
Pulang Pisau District – Central Kalimantan; (ii) Ogan Komering Ilir – South
Sumatera; and (iii) Kubu Raya – West Kalimantan in accordance with
international and Indonesian specifications and standards.  
 
These projects are
implemented by third parties and supervised directly by MCA/BRG. The BGPP
however will provide assistance to facilitate the supervision of these two
projects.
 
Sub-component 1.6 of the BGPP has a job
opening for a local Junior Expert to
facilitate supervision of above projects.
 
The Berbak GPP is funded by Millennium Change
Account Indonesia (MCA-I).
 
The selected candidate will be expected to start
working with BGPP in October 2017. Details of the position are listed below:
