Summary of Millennium Challenge
Compact With the Republic of
Indonesia
The five-year, $600 million compact
with the Government of Indonesia (the
‘‘GOI’’) is aimed at reducing poverty
through economic growth (the
‘‘Compact’’). To this end, the Compact’s
three projects are intended to increase
incomes of households in project areas

energy costs, and improved provision of
growth-enhancing goods and services by
the public sector.
1. Project Overview and Activity

To advance the Compact goal of
reducing poverty through economic
growth, the Compact will fund three
projects. The Green Prosperity Project
aims to (i) increase productivity and
reduce reliance on fossil fuels by
expanding renewable energy; and (ii)
increase productivity by improving land
use practices and management of
natural resources. These objectives are
consistent with GOI development plans
to support low carbon economic
development and the protection of
natural capital leading to increased
household incomes in project areas. The
