Abstract
Indonesia is one of the world’s richest countries in terms of biodiversity, spanning 5,400 km along the equator and encompassing more than 17,000 islands. Indonesia has a large protected area network, however its coverage is uneven; both in terms of biodiversity and in terms of the allocation of human and financial resources. The weakest coverage is in the islands of East Indonesia, in particular within the 1,000s of islands of Sulawesi, Maluku and Nusa Tenggara; as provinces bigger in size than many south-east Asian and Pacific countries.
