Indonesia's hydro-diplomacy: Rising above global water politics and climate challanges

---

This policy paper examines the pivotal role of hydro-diplomacy in Indonesia's foreign policy, particularly within the context of fragmented global water politics and the profound impacts of climate change. It proposes a "Measured Approach" that integrates water diplomacy into broader foreign and environmental policies, positioning water governance as a key pillar in Indonesia's international engagement. This forward-thinking strategy aims to promote sustainable water resource management, address climate-related water challenges, and ensure equitable water sharing.
The proposed National Hydro-diplomacy Policy Framework offers a fresh, integrated approach to water governance. By embedding water diplomacy within the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Indonesia can leverage its leadership in global forums, including working closely with the newly appointed UN Special Envoy on Water. The framework fosters cross-sector collaboration and incorporates advanced water management practices, aligning with Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 6. This strategic approach highlights Indonesia’s potential as a global leader in hydro-diplomacy, addressing both domestic and international water challenges.
This paper raises key questions for Indonesia's future in water governance. How can the country navigate global water politics, particularly as competition for transboundary water resources intensifies?Moreover, what strategies should Indonesia adopt to mitigate the impacts of climate change on its freshwater resources, and how can it secure the necessary political and financial support to implement these strategies effectively?
Lastly, developing a National Hydro-diplomacy Policy Framework presents strategic value by aligning Indonesia’s water governance with its international climate and diplomatic commitments. This policy not only strengthens Indonesia’s regional influence but also safeguards long-term resilience to water-related climate challenges. By fostering collaboration among domestic and international stakeholders, Indonesia will be better positioned to lead multilateral water governance efforts, mediate transboundary water disputes, and secure sustainable access to clean water for future generations.
