The Ministry of Environment of Indonesia, Swisscontact Indonesia Foundation and KPBB initiated the Forum Udara Bersih Indonesia (FUBI) or the "Indonesia Clean Air Forum" to promote policy dialogue among stakeholders for the formulation of Environmentally Sustainable Transport (EST) strategies and policies. The first FUBI forum was held at the Four Seasons Hotel, Jakarta on November 10, 2009 with support from the ADB/Sida-funded CAI-Asia Sustainable Urban Mobility in Asia (SUMA) Program.

The FUBI consists of stakeholders (government, private sector, and civil society) with a vision to promote clean air in Indonesia and mission to improve human resources capacity through: Policy reform (policy promotion/ policy change); Public education; and Technical solutions in the promotion of better air quality.

As part of the SUMA activities in 2009, Swisscontact Indonesia Foundation assisted CAI-Asia by issuing newsletters, organizing training on the UNEP Clean Fleet Management Toolkit, organizing the Indonesia Clean Air Forum Workshop, and coordinating the Vehicle Inspection and Maintenance System Regulation Study. In 2010, CAI-Asia will work closely with Indonesia stakeholders to implement projects KnowledgeAir, Walkability Study in Asian Cities, and Knowledge Partnership for Measuring AP and GHG Emissions.

FUBI is CAI-Asia's Country Network in Indonesia which is part of the CAI-Asia Partnership. Cities, national government agencies, academic institutions, nongovernment organizations, private sector companies, and development agencies can apply for free membership to the CAI-Asia Partnership.
