Estimates of global species diversity have near 5-30 million, and only 1,78 million
have actually been named.
Indonesia is one of mega-biodiversity countries which is blessed with extremelyRich biological resources with high biodiversity. A lot of new species are still being
discovered in Indonesia.

ECOSYSTEM
SPECIESGENETICS

Efforts to conserve biodiversity in the tropical region andarchipelagic areas, such as Indonesia are very importantsince many places are centres of origin, centres of diversity
and centres of endemism
The key to conserving genes, species, and ecosystems is increasing ourknowledge of biodiversity and its role in human society..

LIPI play key important role on biodiversity
research and strongly contribute on thenational biodiversity action plan, and actively
promoting global research partnership on
biodiversity.
Promoting biodiversity research means much
more than just setting research agendas. It
requires improving skills and institutional
capacity. Advancing the research agenda will
require intensified cooperation between
developed and developing countries.
Indonesia and Japan establish long term
research partnership from the 1980-an, as shownby mutual research collaboration between thescientist of both countries. Since 1995 theGovernment of Japan has implemented a wide
range of cooperation projects on biodiversity
conservation in Indonesia.

Science and Technology Research Partnership for
Sustainable Development (SATREPS)• JST, in cooperation with JICA, launched “Science and Technology
Research Partnership for Sustainable Development (SATREPS)”
program to promote international joint research between Japan anddeveloping countries targeting global issues in areas such asenvironment and energy, natural disaster prevention and infectious
diseases control.
• Under this program, JST provides support for research expenses inJapan, while JICA bears the costs of the counterpart developing country
under a framework of ODA technical cooperation. Management ofresearch and development (R&D) for the international joint research as awhole is conducted cooperatively between JICA (which operates
technical cooperation to developing countries) and JST (whichpossesses expertise in operation of funding projects for research
institutions in Japan).

Sustainability
1. The technical transfer has been well in progress.
2. The confidence level of the Indonesian members
to sustain the Project outputs and to further
develop by themselves is high.
3. Documents required for ISO9001 lay out theprocedures for the management of InaCC, which
will help InaCC to maintain the standardized
management system.
4. There is a possibility of further collaboration
between the Indonesian and Japanese researchers.

CONCLUSION• The collaborative research between Indonesia andJapan through several projects on Biodiversity
demonstrates not only promotes and safeguards thefair and equitable sharing of benefits arising from theutilization of genetic resources, it also significantly
contributing to the national capacity building of theprovider in both management and scientific skill andimprove public awareness. It is obvious that thecooperation projects are examples for the
implementation of Nagoya Protocol.
