Horst Kohler is a member of the High Level Panel of Eminent Persons (HLPEP) for the post-2015 Development Agenda, while the Indonesian President jointly chairs the panel with British Prime Minister David Cameron and Liberian President Ellen Johnson Sirlear.
At the meeting President Yudhoyono expressed hopes the German president could attend the next meeting of the HLPEP in the Indonesian island of Bali later at the end of this month.
The last HLPLEP meeting was held in Liberia last January.
Twenty-six members of the HLPEP who are directly appointed by the UN have been working to formulate important agendas to replace the eight Millennium Development Goals (MDGS) which would expire in 2015.
President Yudhoyono said last year the three co-chairs and the UN had shared a common view that the next development agenda must be aimed at reducing world poverty significantly to improve the living standards of peoples in the world.
One way of achieving it, he said, is by carrying out sustainable development efforts with existing resources to create sustainable and just economic growth.
The formulators of the post-2015 development agenda have been working since September 2012 and would work until May 2013.
President Yudhoyono is also scheduled to meet German Chancellor Angela Merkel.
