The Green City Action Plan (GCAP) for Batam was developed by the Green Team (PokJa Hijau) of the City of Medan, Batam, and Kendari under the guidance of Badan Perencana Pembangunan Daerah (BAPPEDA) and the City Mayor’s Office. This integrated action plan complements the City of Batam’s statutory planning process, notably the Regional Medium Term Development Plan (RPJMD). Successful implementation of the GCAP would allow the City of Batam to become a ‘champion’ for green cities in Indonesia.
