An Opportunity for leadership

Systemiq, along with our partners, has built a bold, outcomes-driven program that measurably reduces ocean plastic pollution where it matters most. Together with the government, we build circular, sustainable waste systems that result in cleaner, more thriving communities and a healthier environment. Now it is time to take this program to the next level, graduating from Kecamatan to full regencies and beyond.

Ultimately, we envision an Indonesia without plastic pollution. A country with clean, modern waste management for every household and business. We are looking for smart, ambitious, innovative leaders to join us in this ambitious work.

• If you are eager for your career to have real impact, where your actions produce direct, measurable results in people's lives and for nature...

Banyuwangi Hijau

Banyuwangi Hijau, an initiative of Banyuwangi Government to realized clean regency through comprehensive waste management system, was launched on February 21, 2022. Banyuwangi Hijau is coordinated by Chief of Staff of Banyuwangi Regency with support from a working group to coordinate across sectors within the regency office. The program consists of four key workstreams, i.e. governance, waste system, behaviour change communication (BCC), and innovative financing.

The governance workstream aims to ensure the design of the program is in line with local government planning and strategic targets. We have reviewed existing policies and strategy at regency level to understand the current regulatory gaps that must be addressed to ensure optimum empowerment, both towards the regency government, the village government, and local communities.

Additionally, the governance workstream ensures cross agencies involvement in executing the program, which will be facilitated by a cross agencies working group. The working group also acts as the bridge of communication and coordination with key stakeholders outside the regency government.

Lastly, the governance workstream as an integral part of the Banyuwangi Hijau program, needs to support other components in delivering the program. There is a regular meeting to ensure close alignment across the components.
