The Indonesia Net-Zero Summit (INZS) was initiated in 2021 and has since grown into the largest independent-led climate forum in Indonesia. INZS brings together governments, businesses, academia, youth, and civil society toward collective ownership and a whole-of-society movement for net-zero and climate resilience in Indonesia and beyond.
Now in its fifth year, INZS 2026 aims to elevate climate action as a national priority for development and security, while positioning Indonesia to play a more proactive and influential role in shaping regional and global climate agendas in times of crisis. This year, INZS seeks to demonstrate how the transition can drive tangible economic growth and shared prosperity.
Indonesia Net-Zero Summit (INZS) pertama kali diinisiasi pada tahun 2021 dan kini telah berkembang menjadi forum iklim independen terbesar di Indonesia. INZS menyatukan pemerintah, bisnis, akademisi, pemuda, dan masyarakat sipil menuju kepemilikan kolektif dan gerakan seluruh masyarakat untuk net-zero dan ketahanan iklim di Indonesia dan sekitarnya.
Kini memasuki tahun kelimanya, INZS 2026 bertujuan mengangkat aksi iklim sebagai prioritas nasional bagi pembangunan dan keamanan, sekaligus memosisikan Indonesia untuk memainkan peran yang lebih proaktif dan berpengaruh dalam membentuk agenda iklim di tingkat regional dan global di masa krisis. Tahun ini, INZS berupaya menunjukkan bagaimana transisi dapat mendorong pertumbuhan ekonomi yang nyata serta kemakmuran bersama.
Issue Clusters
Energy Security for All
In an increasingly fragmented world, traditional energy systems are structurally exposed to geopolitical shocks, supply disruptions, and price volatility, undermining economic stability and welfare. Amid these challenges, the energy transition is a long-term solution for securing reliable, affordable energy systems. Diversifying energy sources and accelerating the deployment of renewables can strengthen resilience, reduce external dependence, and unlock new engines of growth.
Geopolitics and Diplomacy
Geopolitics is increasingly shaping the pace and direction of climate action. Global tensions, supply chain competition, and shifting power dynamics redefine national priorities. In this context, climate transition has become a core component of foreign policy and national interest, which requires more adaptive approaches to diplomacy beyond traditional multilateral models. As the global order shifts, Indonesia, Southeast Asia, and other emerging economies have a growing opportunity to act as convenors, bridge-builders, and norm-setters in advancing cooperative climate solutions.
Aligning Economy, Trade, and Finance
Climate policy is economic policy. The rise of green trade measures, shifting supply chains, and competition over critical resources are redefining how countries position themselves in the global economy. For emerging economies, the question is how to move early enough to capture value, attract capital, and avoid structural disadvantage. Aligning these fronts will be essential to ensure the transition delivers durable growth and resilience.
Enhancing Nature-based Solutions
From forests, peatlands, to coastal ecosystems, nature-based solutions can deliver up to one-third of global emissions reductions while supporting food and water security, livelihoods, and resilience. For Indonesia and beyond, the opportunity lies in regenerative systems where ecosystems are protected, communities are empowered, and climate action delivers lasting socioeconomic value.
Building People and Societal Resilience
Climate change is a human security risk, from heat that disrupts work and floods that displace families to air pollution that affects health. These impacts are already reshaping lives across urban and rural areas, hitting the most vulnerable hardest. Building resilience now means investing in climate-ready systems and ensuring communities are equipped to anticipate, withstand, and recover from these risks.
