Daemeter completes study on partnerships to advance jurisdictional approaches to sustainable palm oil, supporting transition to a high-yield, low-impact Indonesian palm oil sector.

Daemeter evaluates feasibility of applying the Jurisdictional Approach (JA) to eliminate deforestation from Indonesia’s palm oil sector and promote wider improvements to land governance. This study is conducted based on extensive stakeholder interviews, field research, and geospatial analysis to understand JA challenges and opportunities, describes distinctive features of the JA, where it’s being trialed, lessons to date, and recommendations for where and how to scale JA experimentation to accelerate transformational change.
