Grant Description: The Office of International Affairs of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is requesting for a cooperative agreement in support of an initiative to reduce lead in the environment of Indonesia. EPA intends to begin the agreement as soon as possible, but by no later than September 30, 2003, and to continue it for two years until expiration. Since 2001, the Government of Indonesia has implemented a policy of eliminating leaded gasoline in Jakarta and surrounding areas. Efforts are under way to expand this ban through the remaining urban areas throughout the country. Initial research has also started on other paths of exposure to lead. However, there has been little public engagement in this process to this point. This initiative should have the overall objective of reducing lead in Indonesia by engaging local stakeholders on this issue. Activities under this agreement should include: training for stakeholders; engaging women on lead issues related to childrens health; soliciting stakeholder commitments to reduce lead in the environment; educating government officials; and, educating the general public on the risks of lead exposure and specific ways to reduce lead in the environment.
