About WRI Indonesia
World Resources Institute (WRI) is an independent national research organization that turns big ideas into action at the nexus of environment, economic opportunity, and human well-being. WRI Indonesia is affiliated with World Resources Institute (WRI), a global environmental research organization that works with various stakeholders to support policies and practices that are sustainable and profitable. WRI works with leaders in more than 50 countries for more than 30 years, with offices in Brazil, China, Europe, Africa, India, Indonesia, Mexico, and the United States.
Launched in early 2014, WRI Indonesia builds on WRI’s 20-year history in the country and the official establishment of WRI Indonesia office has strengthened our impacts on the ground in recent years. Our current work primarily focuses on forest and land-use. Over time WRI Indonesia aims to expand its portfolio to include climate, energy, and city and transportation. Therefore, it is important for the organization to identify and put in place the research building blocks for achieving the vision of WRI Indonesia supporting science- and data-driven decision making at national and sub-national level.
This position will support WRI Indonesia's Forest and Landscape Restoration and One Map Initiative-related projects.

Overview
Forest and Landscape Restoration (FLR)
As part of its FLR initiative, WRI Indonesia is also involved in a global project called RESTORE+. The project aims at addressing Food-Land-Energy nexus related to restoration or utilization of degraded/marginal land. In Indonesia, RESTORE+ will conduct participatory mapping and citizen-science campaigns at both national and provincial level focusing on South Sumatra and East Kalimantan. The activities will be combined with land-use and supply chain modelling to assess restoration options and overall land-use dynamics. WRI Indonesia's primary task within the RESTORE+ consortium is to create a web-based platform that will allow crowd participation and provide communicative and engaging display of mapping and modelling results. WRI Indonesia will also coordinate with other consortium partners in conducting participatory mapping and citizen-science activities within the project.
One Map Initiative
WRI Indonesia is supporting the government in accelerating the implementation of One Map Policy. The overall objective of the One Map Initiative is to transform land use decision-making processes to be open, accountable, and participatory. WRI Indonesia will achieve this through catalyzing a unified and transparent land use planning and monitoring system that is accessible to all land use stakeholders. Through partnership with national and local governments, civil societies and the private sectors, WRI Indonesia is developing tailor-made platforms to support the ongoing process of data collection, integration, and synchronization.
Systems Developer (SD) will be based in Jakarta and responsible to provide expertise on information technology (IT) and Information Management System (IMS) in technical and operational aspects to support WRI Indonesia’s One Map Initiative, RESTORE+, and other projects.
