Supporting Indonesia’s Waste Management Roadmap

SEAPPI supported the development of a new policy recommendation paper, Strengthening Indonesia’s Waste Management Roadmap, published by the Southeast Asia Recycling Coalition. The paper outlines practical steps to reinforce Indonesia’s waste reduction framework and support the effective rollout of Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) for packaging, and is intended to inform policymakers, industry, and waste management stakeholders as Indonesia reviews and strengthens its national approach to producer-led waste reduction.

Building on the Waste Reduction Roadmap under Ministerial Regulation No. 75/2019, the paper recognises progress to date while highlighting persistent challenges, including voluntary compliance, fragmented waste management systems, infrastructure funding gaps, and limited data and technical capacity. Drawing on international experience and local expertise, it sets out the case for clearer governance, industry-led Producer Responsibility Organisations (PROs), and modulated EPR fees, positioning EPR as a key mechanism to accelerate waste reduction when supported by investment and robust institutional frameworks.
