Details
Mission and objectives
UNDP believes that the people of Indonesia should have
ownership over the programmes and projects we support. All UNDP programmes
therefore actively promote the spirit of mutual respect, support and
accountability and subscribe to the principle of national ownership as
enshrined in the Jakarta Commitment – a declaration put forward by the government
and its development partners in 2009 to strengthen aid effectiveness in
Indonesia. In the true spirit of national ownership, all of UNDP’s assistance
in Indonesia is implemented by national entities, including line ministries and
the Ministry of National Planning and Development, and at the subnational level
by line departments, provincial and district authorities as well as community
groups. While each programme supported by UNDP has specific and varied
objectives, capacity development is one aim that all UNDP programmes – in
Indonesia and worldwide – have in common. This takes on many forms including
institutional reform, leadership development, education, and training for
members of the public such as journalists, and women’s communities. In line with
this logic, UNDP advisers work side by side with Indonesian counterparts to
strengthen capacities in technical matters, policy formulation and budget
planning, amongst others.
Context

certain groups like women, children, people with disabilities, and group of
minorities. Furthermore, in close collaboration with programme staff, the
