6CHAPTER ONE

executivesummary

Reducing poverty and inequality are top priorities for Indonesia. Out of a population of 252 million, 35 percent remain poor or vulnerable to falling into poverty. 1 Inequality, while trending down after years of stagnation, is still relatively high; the

differences in consumption, access to services, and equality in opportunities be-

tween the bottom 40 percent of the poorest segment of the population and middle

40 percent remain wide. To continue to move the needle on poverty and inequality

in a country as large and diverse as Indonesia requires enabling citizens, villages,

local governments (LGs) as well as the private sector to identify and implement local

solutions to these problems. It also requires ensuring that the significant increases

in government spending at the local level are more effective and focused on devel-

opment priorities.

The Local Solutions to Poverty (LSP) Multi-Donor Trust Fund (MDTF) enables the

World Bank to work at four levels to support the Government of Indonesia (GoI) to

enable local development solutions to poverty. First, it works at the highest levels

of government to help focus the national policy agenda on reforms and instruments

that the national government can use to empower and incentivize local actors to re-

duce poverty and inequality. This includes high-level policy dialogue with ministers,

tapping into the World Bank’s global expertise as well as using national forums such

as the regular Indonesia Economic Quarterly to raise media and public awareness

of national development priorities. Second, LSP enables the World Bank to pro-

vide policy and technical advice to ministerial officials, including at the Ministries

of Finance, Planning, Home Affairs, Villages as well as Health and Education. Third,

enhanced implementation support assists the GoI to deliver complex and innovative

operations, including the Village Innovation Program (VIP), Healthy and Smart Gen-

eration (Generasi), Teachers’ Performance and Accountability (KIAT Guru), and the

Early Childhood Education and Development (ECED) project. Finally, LSP commis-

sions special studies, undertakes rigorous impact evaluations, facilitates Knowledge

Exchanges, and leverages the World Bank’s global expertise in community develop-

ment, public financial management (PFM), local economic development (LED), stunt-

ing and community health, and impact evaluation.

Four major contributions the LSP made in 2017 to support the GoI’s development

efforts are:

(i) Making four percent of the national budget more pro-poor and service deliv-

ery focused. As a result of LSP led rigorous analytical work and policy dialogue,

the Ministry of Finance (MoF) put forward, and the Indonesian Parliament (Dewan

Perwakilan Rakyat, or DPR) approved, a change to the Village Fund2 (Dana Desa) resource allocation formula for the Village Law. The revised formula allocates

1 World Bank, 2017, Aspiring Indonesia: Expanding the Middle Class. 2 The Village Fund accounts for approximately 60 percent of fiscal transfers under the Village Law. In 2017 these transfers amounted to about four per-cent of the national budget. Similar budget levels are expected in 2018.

a greater share of money to villages with higher numbers of poor people, in-

cluding those that need basic health, education, economic development and

infrastructure services, and in disadvantaged and remote areas.

(ii) generating innovation and learning across indonesia’s villages to identify solutions to local development challenges and improve the impact of the significantly increased fiscal transfers to district and village governments. There is a high likelihood that for every development challenge with which one

of Indonesia’s 74,954 villages is confronted, another village may have an inno-

vative way to address the same challenge. In recognizing this, LSP leveraged

the GoI’s VIP national platform and the Generasi program to provide to the Min-

istry of Villages, Disadvantaged Regions and Transmigration (MoV), as well as

many provincial and district governments, specialized technical assistance (TA)

and implementation support to hold innovation and knowledge exchanges for

villages to learn from one another. In 2017, Village Innovation Exchanges (Bursa

Inovasi Desa) brought together tens of thousands of villages at the district level

across Indonesia, from Papua to Sumatra.

(iii) Piloting initiatives to improve the effectiveness and quality of education ser-vice delivery. Indonesia spends 20 percent of its national budget on education,

of which half is spent on teacher salaries and allowances. The LSP, through the

KIAT Guru project, is tying payment of teachers’ special allowances (Tunjangan

Khusus, or TK) to performance in 203 remote primary schools in five districts.

The Ministry of Education and Culture (MoEC) issued two ministerial decrees to

enable its pilot implementation, and to pave the way for tying TK payments to

teacher performance. To help address early childhood development outcomes,

particularly in poor rural areas, LSP helped GoI address serious supply side

constraints in ECED or, more specifically, the lack of qualified ECED teachers.

The LSP ECED pilot project implemented a novel district-based training system,

which empowered district governments, civil society, and local communities to

train more than 15,000 teachers across 25 districts. The training not only helped

improve access to and quality of ECED services in rural areas but also provided

women in remote areas with an opportunity to upskill and access formal employ-

ment (over 98 percent of the training participants were women). By the end of

the pilot project in 2017, demand from villages – including those not covered or

financed by the project – increased, and village governments began using their

own village budget to procure district-level training for ECED teachers

(iv) Developing and launching a multi-sector national strategy to reduce stunting. About 37 percent or approximately nine million children in Indonesia are stunted,

which not only affects quality of life but, as international evidence has shown,

hampers economic growth and labor market productivity in the long run. The

LSP leveraged its access to international expertise and global knowledge (in-

cluding a knowledge exchange field trip with key GoI counterparts to Peru to

learn about their success in addressing stunting), and its extensive experience

with implementing multi-sector programs (such as PNPM, Generasi, the ECED

pilot project, and other donor and GoI financed programs such as Pamsimas,

which increases access to water and sanitation) to help the GoI develop a Presi-

dential National Action Plan to reduce stunting.3 The National Action Plan aims to

converge or bring together existing national, regional and community programs

to deliver a set of priority nutrition-specific and nutrition-sensitive interventions in

the first 1,000 days of a child’s life and up until age six. The GoI have requested

a new World Bank operation – Investing in Nutrition and Early Years (INEY) – and

additional support from LSP to help implement the Presidential National Action

Plan to reduce stunting.

The support of the Australian Government’s Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT) and Millennium Challenge Account

- Indonesia (MCA-I), which finance the MDTF, made these results possible. In 2017, the MDTF allowed LSP to provide US$17

million in grant funds to the GoI to improve basic health and education services for 2.1 million beneficiaries in 11 provinces, and

US$2.4 million for 203 remote primary schools in five pilot districts to form committees to monitor school performance. It also

provided US$9.6 million to enable LSP to supply a package of knowledge programs, including just-in-time (JIT) policy advice

and technical assistance on Village Law implementation, evaluations including the Long-Term Generasi Impact Evaluation (IE),

KIAT Guru Impact Evaluation, ECED Evaluation and enhanced implementation support, including implementation support for the

VIP and Generasi transition.

In 2017, LSP welcomed Drs. Pungky Sumadi, MCP, Ph.D. (Deputy Minister, Population & Employment, Bappenas) as the Chair of

its Steering Committee and programmed US$6 million to support the GoI priorities on stunting, including the National Action

Plan, through frontline delivery of a core package of nutrition-specific and nutrition-sensitive interventions, and on LED.

Introduction02LSP Facility is a Multi-Donor Trust Fund (MDTF) that aims to assist the Government

of Indonesia (GoI) to improve the quality of life of poor and vulnerable Indonesians

through delivering local solutions to reduce poverty and inequality. LSP also aims

to help the GoI to maximize the impact of the Village Law No. 6/2014 (“the Village

Law”) and to secure the legacy of GoI and development partner investments in

community empowerment approaches to poverty reduction. LSP builds on its pre-

decessor, the PNPM (Program Nasional Pemberdayaan Masyarakat, or National

Community Empowerment Program) Support Facility (PSF),4 to enable the World

Bank to better meet the GoI’s ongoing demands for knowledge products, well-de-

signed and innovative lending operations, and enhanced program implementation

support.

The Annual Progress Report 2017 provides an overview of the LSP Facility, its oper-

ating context and framework; and highlights key program achievements and prog-

ress towards the End-of-Facility Outcomes (EOFOs), cross-cutting themes (gender,

social inclusion and innovation), and key challenges and lessons learned during

the January to December 2017 reporting period. It also identifies LSP’s key future

priorities and direction into 2018 and beyond. The report is structured around the

Facility’s three major EOFOs:

(i) Local governments become more responsive and inclusive;

(ii) Beneficiaries receive improved basic service delivery; and

(iii) National and local governments better use fiscal resource.

It also highlights progress towards cross-cutting issues, such as gender, social in-

clusion and innovation.

Partnering with the GoI, DFAT and MCA-I, LSP is managed by the World Bank.

4 LSP represents the latest incarnation of the World Bank’s primary program for addressing these is-sues, and is the culmination of 16 years of expe-rience working with, across, and at different levels of government to help innovate and scale up local development and community empowerment pro-grams, such as the Kecamatan Development Pro-gram (KDP) and PNPM.

10INTRODUCTION

Box 1.

relevant InvestmentAgainst a backdrop of far-reaching GoI reforms, one of

the challenges for LSP is to maintain its relevance. LSP

constantly evolves to remain in line with the GoI’s needs

and to meet its development partners’ expectations, as

the agenda around village development and basic ser-

vice delivery has changed. In 2017, LSP and its mandate

were realigned in close consultation with the GoI and the

MDTF donors (particularly DFAT) to maintain relevance

and to maximize its contributions to the GoI’s develop-

ment priorities to improve the quality of life for all Indo-

nesians.

LSP’s current mandate is “Supporting the GoI to improve

the quality of life of poor and vulnerable Indonesians

through local solutions to reduce poverty and inequality.”

This mandate directly aligns with the GoI’s National Medi-

um-Term Development Plan 2015-2019 (RPJMN) and the

President’s Nawa Cita, which prioritizes improving village

development and basic service delivery, and ultimately

reducing poverty and inequality. LSP’s work also directly

aligns with the objectives of the GoI’s Village Law agenda,

which focuses on providing systematic and continuous

Village Law implementation support; strengthening vil-

lage government institutions; and increasing the availabil-

ity of and access to education and health facilities. LSP

and its mandate also directly align with the Government

of Australia’s (GoA) DFAT Aid Investment Plan FY16-FY19,

particularly Aid Objective 3, “An Inclusive Society through

Effective Governance.” LSP supports the DFAT Aid Invest-

ment Plan’s objectives through financing programs and

initiatives that promote good governance and develop-

ment principles that are transparent, accountable, open

and more inclusive. Like the GoA, LSP recognizes the

importance of inclusive growth to reduce inequality and

poverty. LSP’s programs promote more effective, struc-

tured and inclusive participation at the village level to en-

sure that village development is more open and respon-

sive to local needs, including the needs of the women

and other vulnerable groups.

In line with its mandate, the LSP portfolio includes a wide

mix of projects, pilot projects and analytics related to

health, education, infrastructure and economic opportuni-

ties as evidence shows that unequal access to these ser-

vices is a major contributing factor to inequality and pov-

erty across Indonesia. LSP leverages the World Bank’s

deep operational knowledge of Indonesian systems and

social institutions: 17 years of engagement with the GoI

and its past CDD programs across multiple sectors; and

global expertise in CDD, PFM, LED, stunting, nutrition

and impact evaluations to work with the GoI and other

development partners to effectively deliver this suite of

activities.

To continue to maintain relevance and alignment with

GoI priorities, LSP regularly engages with Bappenas and

other key government counterparts through the LSP

Steering Committee (chaired by Bappenas and includes

DFAT, MCA-I and the World Bank as core members),

Technical Working Groups and other communication

channels. In December 2017, the LSP Steering Committee

met to approve LSP’s 2018 work program (including the

INEY Operation and LED pilot program), and a workshop

is scheduled in early February 2018 to present LSP’s

progress to the Steering Committee and seek feedback

and opportunities for refinement.

11 CHAPTER THREE

lsP Context

chaPter 3.1

lsP’s operating Context and Progress in the Broader sector

With considerable success to date, the GoI has long had a major focus on reducing

poverty. Since 1999, Indonesia has made large gains in reducing poverty, largely

through sustained growth and job growth. Despite a slowing of poverty reduction,

especially between 2013 and 2016, poverty fell by about 0.58 percent in 2017, or by

about 1.2 million people (Figure 1). Out of a population of 252 million, 35 percent re-

main poor or vulnerable to falling into poverty.5 Rising inequality, poor service deliv-

ery performance and lagging health and education outcomes also continue to per-

sist, particularly in rural and remote areas, despite increases in GoI spending in these

areas. For example, even though Indonesia has allocated 20 percent of the state

budget to education since 2009, student outcomes have failed to improve. Despite

the country’s decentralization efforts and increases in local government spending,

many of its human development outcomes are on par with lower income countries;

for example, it has the second highest incidence of child stunting in Southeast Asia

12LSP CONTEXT

with 37.2 percent of children under age five, and

an estimated maternal mortality rate of 126 wom-

en per 100,000 births in 2015.6 Regional dispari-

ties tend to exacerbate these challenges with ru-

ral areas often suffering more from limited basic

health, education and infrastructure services.

Against this backdrop, the GoI is placing height-

ened attention to increase the impact of cur-

rent spending on reducing rural poverty and

inequality. Over the past year, the GoI’s Village

Law provided US$ 7.3 billion (Rp 100 trillion) to

villages via Dana Desa and Village Funds Allo-

cation (Alokasi Dana Desa) – a huge opportunity

to improve rural infrastructure and services, insti-

tutionalize effective community empowerment,

and address key rural development challenges.

The GoI continued to make progress to improve

village disbursements, strengthen the regulatory

framework, review and improve the Dana Desa

allocation formula, and roll out and upgrade sys-

tems to track village finances and outputs. In par-

allel, policymakers focused increasingly on un-

derstanding why this large investment in villages

is not yielding greater reductions in rural pov-

erty and inequality, and understanding the con-

straints that limit the quality of village spending.

Concerns surfaced, following KPK investigations,

regarding governance and corruption problems

related to the use of village funds. Multiple cab-

inet meetings focused on how to improve the

impact of the Village Law, and the GoI issued a

Joint Ministerial Decree of four ministries (MoHA,

MoV, MoF and Bappenas) on the matter.7

In parallel, the GoI increasingly focused its at-

tention on ensuring that village and other ex-

penditures are converted into effective frontline

services that address Indonesia’s high levels of

stunting, provide children a better start in their

early years, and improve the quality of educa-

tion and other rural services. For example, the

Vice President launched a National Action Plan

to reduce stunting8 and, in 2018, will pilot a Hu-

man Development Workers (HDW) project in 31

districts with the highest stunting prevalence in

Indonesia.9

(M&E), p. 28). This report describes LSP’s progress against the following

three EOFOs:

(i) Local governments become more responsive and inclusive;

(ii) Beneficiaries receive improved basic service delivery; and

(iii) National and local governments better use fiscal resource.

These three EOFOs are underpinned by 10 Intermediate Outcomes (Figure 2).

Several other cross-cutting issues are also addressed by LSP activities,

with a specific focus on gender and social inclusion. See Annex 1 for the

LSP Theory of Change framework and Annex 3 for an update of all LSP

14LSP CONTEXT

chaPter 3.3

Key lsP Programs and Activities

early childhood education and Development (eceD): This pilot project aims to

increase the availability of high-quality, affordable and professional training for early

childhood teachers in poor rural districts. The pilot project tests a frontline service

delivery approach to address constraints that impede the quality of early childhood

education services in rural areas, specifically the availability of qualified teachers.11

The district-based, community-focused training system was piloted in 25 districts

over a two-year period. The project leverages and enhances existing GoI teacher

training programs, strengthens local capacity to deliver ECED training at the sub-dis-

trict level, and introduces community participation into the service delivery process.

generasi: Focusing on poor, rural sub-districts across 11 pilot provinces, the Gener-

asi project aims to empower local communities in about 5,800 villages to increase

the utilization of health and education services. Generasi uses community planning

and incentivized sub-district grants to improve outcomes in terms of 12 priority

health and education indicators, utilizing agreed-upon targets that promote com-

munity participation in decision-making to identify and implement local solutions.

Kiat guru: This innovative pilot project empowers communities in villages to im-

prove education service delivery by tying the payment of the special allowance (Tun-

jangan Khusus, or TK)12 payable to teachers working in remote areas to improve-

ments in teacher service quality. The KIAT Guru pilot project empowers communities

to: (i) verify teacher attendance using mobile phone-based applications; and (ii) eval-

uate teacher quality performance using community scorecards. The KIAT Guru pilot

project started in July 2016, with a baseline survey conducted across 270 primary

schools in five disadvantaged districts. Of these 270 schools, 203 were selected for

subsequent KIAT Guru assistance, potentially benefitting over 26,000 students.

monitoring and evaluation (m&e), and Special Studies: As part of its analytical

support to the GoI, LSP emphasizes the importance of using evidence-based ana-

lytics to inform policy design and program implementation. LSP produces high-qual-

ity analytics and data for its key community empowerment poverty reduction proj-

ects, such as Generasi and Village Law implementation, to generate evidence that

informs program operations, performance and advice to policymakers on how to

achieve better results. LSP supported the Generasi Long-Term Impact Evaluation

(L/T IE), KIAT Guru IE and ECED evaluations. LSP also conducts in-depth research on

local and development priorities in Indonesia, such as the Sentinel Villages Study,

the Civil Service Data Analysis project and just-in-time (JIT) analytics.

village innovation Program (viP): The VIP, for which the LSP provides enhanced

implementation support, aims to improve the capacity of villages to plan (and ulti-

mately use) their fiscal transfers for village investments that focus on village entre-

11 A professional development package costing Rp 1.5 million (US$111) per teacher is provided from Generasi funds to 25 pilot districts to test the viability of scaling up the system to villages across Indonesia. 12 TK is a non-permanent allowance of up to one times basic salary for the hardship teachers encounter in working in poor and remote areas.

Local Health Post in East Sumba District, East Nusa Tenggara. In cooperation with

Generasi, the local health post (posyandu) provides supplementary meals for the children. Following the implementation of Village Law, the village government had agreed

to integrate Generasi Program into Village

Law by further support the Posyandu activities through village funds.

preneurship, human capital formation and village infrastructure. The program seeks

to enable and incentivize villages to allocate more fiscal transfers to entrepreneur-

ship and improve the technical quality of entrepreneurial activities. The VIP pro-

vides financing for three platforms: (i) a district-level innovation platform to better

institutionalize knowledge-sharing; (ii) a capacity-building platform for local technical

service providers (TSPs) to improve their ability to deliver technical services to vil-

lages; and (iii) a data platform to document datasets on village development needs,

priorities and outputs.

village Law Programmatic advisory Services and analytics (village Law PaSa): The Village Law PASA supports GoI efforts to ensure accountable village

governance and participatory village development, particularly related to: (i) re-

source mobilization, allocations and flows; (ii) village development governance,

accountability and capacity; (iii) community empowerment and inclusion; and (iv)

M&E thematic studies. The project delivers JIT policy advice and analytics, techni-

cal support for operationalizing policies and systems, and robust analytics.

meLayani: “Untangling Problems to Improve Basic Services in Indonesia” (Men-

guraikan Permasalahan Perbaikan Layanan Dasar di Indonesia, or MELAYANI) is

a 12-month pilot project that uses a problem-driven approach13 to tackle service

delivery issues. Under MELAYANI, World-Bank-supported coaches help pilot dis-

trict governments navigate through a process of breaking down local problems

(based on data and multi-stakeholder analysis), and identifying and implementing

solutions that are regularly reviewed and adjusted. Through this, MELAYANI aims

to develop a problem-driven model that can be scaled-up and replicated to im-

prove local public service delivery. The pilot project commenced in October 2017

and is being rolled out across three districts.

LSP also supports the LeD Pilot14 and Data for results15 projects. However, as

both projects will not commence until 2018, they are not reported in the LSP An-

nual Report 2017.

13 The approach draws on several methodologies, such as Problem-Driven Iterative Adaptation (PDIA), Deliverology and an earlier World Bank pilot instrument called the Rapid Assessment and Action Plan (the predecessor of MELAYANI).14 The LED pilot supports the GoI in introducing new models of LED, which focus on linking village farmers and entrepreneurs to markets, into the RPJMN 2020-2024. The proj-ect includes three components: national policy framework, enterprise networking and partnerships; and market-driven operational models.15 The Data for Results project aims to manage local data more effectively to deliver services locally. The project will help streamline local data systems to build more effective Data for Results systems.

Progress towards eoFo one: local governments Become More responsive and Inclusive

04

Local governments (LGs) are responsible for most health and education services in

Indonesia and spend almost half of the entire state budget on these services. How-

ever, the quality of this spending remains low and does not always reflect the needs

of the community. In addition, LGs now play a key role in guiding and safeguard-

ing the implementation of the Village Law. To ensure that fiscal spending reflects

community needs, including those of women, the poor, and marginalized groups,

in 2017 LSP helped strengthen national regulations and systems in order to embed

more structured participation in the implementation of Village Law; strengthened

national and local government capacity to implement participatory processes using

data-driven evidence to inform decisions; and improved accountability mechanisms

at national, district and village levels. Together these efforts helped strengthen na-

tional and sub-national frameworks and processes to support more inclusive devel-

opment at the village level.

chaPter 4.1

outcome 1: strengthening local frameworks and systems to improve governance and downward accountability to communities

Under Village Law, villages have access to increased fiscal resources, and more

management and implementation responsibilities. Yet village systems and mechanisms

for tracking village management, oversight, implementation and performance are

weak, which inhibits transparent and accountable village development. During 2017,

LSP focused on strengthening national government systems and regulations to

improve village governance and downward accountability by providing technical,

analytical and capacity-building support. Going forward, LSP will focus on supporting

coordination and further building capacity to support the implementation and uptake

of these regulations and systems.

UNDERSTANDING kEY GOVERNANCE CONSTRAINTS LIMITING THE

qUALITY OF VILLAGE SPENDING

In 2017, the Village Law PASA, supported various foundational analytical work,

including the Sentinel Village Study, the World Bank-GoI Spot Check of Village

Governance and Financial Management, and the Village Public Expenditure Review

(ViPER) Analysis. This work aimed to identify and improve the GoI’s understanding

about key governance constraints limiting the quality and impact of village spending.

17 PROGRESS TOWARDS EOFO ONE

Using an evidence-based analytical

approach, the Sentinel Villages

Study analyzed how LG frameworks

and systems enable or hinder

community participation and bottom-up

accountability in village development.

The analysis found that not all village

meetings are inclusive, and village

heads do not always proactively

disseminate information to all villagers

through structured and open channels.

The ViPER Analysis, which analyzed

1,868 villages in 2017, found that

villages spent almost 40 percent of their

funds on administration,16 that village

spending on health and education is

quite small (five percent of the village

budget), and that inconsistencies in how

villages classify their finances hinder

accurate reporting on village spending

(see Chapter 6.1 for further details on

the ViPER Analysis). Drawing on these

studies, the Bank prepared an analysis of

Village Law implementation bottlenecks

and recommended actions for senior

GoI officials (MoHA, Bappenas, MoF,

MoV and Kantor Staf Presiden or KSP).

The results of the analysis contributed

to the formulation of the December

2017 joint ministerial decree on Village

Law implementation among MoHA,

Bappenas, MoF, and MoV.17

To further understand current

management and oversight practices

and constraints at the village level,

the Village Law PASA also finalized

an assessment of village complaints

handling systems (including a regulatory

analysis) and supported a joint World

Bank-GoI (MoHA and MoV) Spot Check

of Village Governance and Financial

Management with a focus on downward

accountability. The complaints handling

assessment was carried out in four

provinces18 over 2016 and 2017. The Spot

Checks were conducted in September

2017 in 64 villages across 27 sub-districts in 12 districts and six provinces. Both

exercises highlighted the need to strengthen complaints handling around village

funds. The Spot Check findings indicated that: (i) the most significant governance

risks around village funds are at the district level; (ii) many of the villages publish

information on their budgets and finances; (iii) the limited capacity of village staff in

managing village finances is a significant risk; and (iv) improvements are needed in

village financial management (VFM) systems, as well as in supra-village monitoring

and supervision.

Building on the Sentinel Villages Study, Spot Checks, and the ViPER Analysis, Village

Law PASA also reviewed provincial and district spending for villages, and began

an assessment of district capacities (institutional, financial and human) in providing

adequate support and supervision to villages. The district assessment will help

systematically unpack many of the challenges districts face, including lack of clear

guidance, capacity, incentives and funds to perform their roles effectively. Village

Law PASA will draw on these findings to help GoI shape more effective, demand

driven and sustainable support to villages.

16 This is above the 30 percent ceiling.17 Joint Decree regarding the Harmonization and Strengthening of Implementation Policy of Village Law No. 6/2014 about the Village (No.140-8698/tahun 2017 (MoHA), No. 954/KMK.07/2017 (MoF), No. 116 Tahun 2017 (MoV) and No. 01/SKB/M/PPN/12/2017 (Bappenas)).18 Complaints-handling fieldwork was carried out in two phases across four provinces—Central Java, East Java, West Sulawesi and East Nusa Tenggara. Phase 1 comprised a limited assessment of district and sub-district capacity to manage and resolve complaints relating to village governance. Study locations were Cen-tral Java (Wonogiri and Banyumas districts) and West Sulawesi (Polewali Mandar and Majene districts). Key respondents included representatives of Community Empowerment Agencies (Badan Pemberdayaan Masyarakat Desa or BPMD); Village Governance Units of Regional Secretariats (Bagian Pemerintahan Desa, or Pemdes); inspectorates; district prosecutors; sub-district governments and village facilitators.

efficiencyIn 2017, the LSP MDTF disbursed US$29 million. As of the end of 2017, the

MDTF cumulatively disbursed a total of US$315 million (see Annex 2 for further

MDTF expenditures). From the 91 main LSP activities in the 2017 LSP work

plan/activity log, 44 percent of activities were completed, 37 percent are on-

going (expected completion in 2018), four percent are delayed and 15 percent

are under preparation.

To achieve better value for money (VfM) and more sustainable impacts, LSP

leverages the GoI and other development partners’ resources. For example,

in 2017, LSP:

• ComplementedandleveragedexistingGoIinitiativesandresourcestopro-

mote more sustainable impacts: LSP’s KIAT Guru pilot project leveraged

the GoI’s Tunjangan Khusus mechanism, which has a total annual budget

of US$118.5 million (Rp 1.6 trillion). In 2017, MoEC contributed US$392,600

(Rp 5.3 billion), the five districts contributed US$111,000 (Rp 1.5 billion) and

the village governments contributed US$62,700 (Rp 846 million) through the

village funds. MoEC has also committed an additional US$392,600 (Rp 5.3

billion) for 2018.

•Workedwithotherdevelopmentprogramstoenhanceoutcomesandmax-

imize the GoI commitments: LSP’s Village Law PASA worked with KOMPAK

to support the Directorate General of Fiscal Balance (DJPK) to revise the

2018 Dana Desa Formula Allocation to make it more pro-poor (PMK No. 199/

PMK.07/2017), which represents a positive step towards making the Dana

Desa more equitable. LSP and KOMPAK also worked together to support

• LeveragedotherWorldBankoperationsandglobalnetworkstoinformde-

cisionsandmaximizeimpacts: In 2017, LSP and the results from its programs

and studies were used to inform multiple other World Bank operations. For

example, results from Generasi and the ECED pilot project will inform the

new INEY Operation (see Chapter 5.2); and results from LSP’s BKN Civil

Service Analysis will inform the World Bank Governance Team’s Human Re-

source Development for Bureaucratic Reform (see Chapter 7).

• UsedlocalgovernmentfundstosupportLSPsupportedinitiatives: In 2017,

a number of local governments allocated village fiscal resources (APBDes)

to support or expand LSP-supported activities. For example, the Gorontalo

District (ECED pilot district) committed village funds to expand the ECED

training system program in 2017 (see Chapter 4.3). In Generasi integration

strategy locations, overall village spending (APBDes utilization) for health

and education activities increased from 10.9 percent (2015) to 15.8 percent

(2017) (see Chapter 4.3).

The Village Law PASA used the findings from these studies, which highlighted

Village Law bottlenecks as well as the fragmented and limited quality of village

spending, to inform its ongoing policy dialogue and advice to the GoI to strengthen

key regulations and systems that improve village governance and downward

accountability. For example, evidence generated through ViPER and Sentinel

Villages was used to inform LSP’s technical analysis and advice to the GoI (e.g.

through Village Law PASA-supported consultants) about revising the regulation

covering VFM (Permendagri No. 113/2014) and improving the system (Sistem

Keuangan Desa, or Siskeudes), which is being rolled out to help villages better track

and report their finances. ViPER’s findings on major inconsistencies in how villages

classify their findings directly informed LSP’s detailed analysis, recommendations,

and dialogue with the GoI about improving village financial classifications in the

revised Permendagri No. 113/2014 (see Chapter 6.1 for further details on revised

Permendagri No. 113/2014). Further, ViPER analysis, which showed that only a small

percentage of village budgets were spent on village-level health and education

services, have featured in policy dialogues and LSP-provided advice on the annual

national regulation on village priority setting19. The ViPER findings also complement

the Generasi integration strategy work to support villages to increase their funding

for frontline services.

The Sentinel Villages case study on village fund utilization found that villages tend to

fragment their development budgets into many small projects rather than financing

larger projects, which is a potentially critical bottleneck limiting the development

impact of the Village Law. This analysis informed Village Law PASA’s support to

MoV/MoHA to improve the rules, regulations, training, and M&E that strengthen

village planning and budgeting (e.g. technical analysis and recommendations

to inform the revision of Permendagri No. 114/2014). The findings will also inform

LSP’s planned support to the GoI to improve training on village planning. Analytical

work on the allocation formula, using village-level data, provided evidence on the

limitations of previous Dana Desa allocations, as well as detailed options for how

Dana Desa allocations could be made

more pro-poor (see Chapter 6.2 for

further details on the 2018 Dana Desa

Allocation Formula). These findings

contributed to the Bank’s overall

analysis outlining the key factors that

limit the quality of village spending,

and, in turn, village outputs, and the

poverty reduction and development

impact of the Village Law. For example,

this analysis contributed to the World

Bank Public Expenditure Review,

which included recommendations on

Village Law implementation and was

presented to the Minister of Finance

in June 2017; presentations about

improving the impact of the Village Law

(acceleration presentation) which were

provided to the Minister of Finance;

and multiple presentations provided to

MoV, MoHA, the National Team for the

Acceleration of Poverty Reduction (Tim

Nasional Percepatan Penanggulangan

Kemiskinan, or TNP2K), MoF, KSP,

and MoV on what the GoI can do to

improve the development impact of the

Village Law. In turn these presentations

contributed to the December 2017

Surat Keputusan Bersama (SKB), which

includes multiple provisions that reflect

the analysis and recommendations

provided by LSP as well as other

stakeholders.

In 2017, LSP continued to support

the KIAT Guru pilot program, and its

performance incentive mechanisms,

at the sub-national level to improve

education service delivery by

empowering communities and tying

teacher allowance to performance.

In 2017, key national-, district- and

village-level regulations were issued

that adopted KIAT Guru as a priority

program and made it possible for

teacher allowances in remote areas to

be performance based. MoEC issued

two key regulations, including:

• MoEC Decree No. 99/P/2017 on

the Priority Program in Delivery

of teachers’ special allowance

Page 22: ANNUAL PROGRESS REPORT · P3mD Program Pembangunan dan Pem-berdayaan Masyarakat Desa (Village Community Development and Empow-erment Program) Posyandu Pos Pelayanan Terpadu (Local

19 PROGRESS TOWARDS EOFO ONE

(Tunjangan Khusus, or TK), which identified KIAT Guru as a

MoEC priority program; and

• MoEC Decree No. 11788/B/HK/2017, which provided

technical guidelines for its implementation.

Subsequent sub-national regulations were issued (in total 435

regulations), which allowed the first TK payments to be made

in April 2017 (see Chapter 5 for further details). This regulatory

framework is expected to directly improve teacher presence

and teacher performance, which will benefit over 26,000

students in the pilot schools. During the implementation

process, KIAT Guru helped foster dialogue between various

stakeholders (MoEC and LG policymakers, teachers, members

of school-user committees and village cadres) to identify

education service delivery challenges and solutions at the

local level.

At the sub-national level, LSP, through Generasi, supported

a range of mechanisms to improve communities’ ability to

participate in monitoring and holding governments more

accountable for the services they provide. Specifically, during

2017, Generasi continued to support the implementation

of cross-village audit pilot projects, village accountability

meetings and the performance incentive systems (in the

three remaining block grant recipient locations). Generasi

also helped set up a complaints-handling system, which

was designed to capture complaints related to the quality

of service delivery (as opposed to financial management,

procurement and administrative issues). Specifically, LSP

supported consultants to train facilitators to set up the

complaints-handling system and rollout the new system in

Generasi villages. As of September 2017, 205 cases had been

raised in the new system and 183 were resolved. Generasi,

along with the Finance and Development Supervisory Agency

(Badan Pengawasan Keuangan dan Pembangunan, or BPKP),

is currently verifying this data, which will be reflected in the

BPKP audit document.

The more participative the interaction between LGs and com-

munities at the village level, the more inclusive and respon-

sive LGs are likely to be, enabling citizens to better participate

in identifying and implementing local solutions to poverty and

inequality. Building on past community-driven development

(CDD) approaches, the Village Law incorporates principles of

community participation. However, in practice, community par-

ticipation in village planning is varied and not guaranteed. To

address these challenges, in 2017 LSP, by providing analytical

and technical support, informed and strengthened GoI deci-

sions and regulations so that they better incorporated partici-

patory principles and processes. At the sub-national level, LSP

piloted and supported various initiatives to empower commu-

nities to participate in village processes.

In 2017, the Village Law PASA implemented foundational studies, including the Senti-

nel Villages Longitudinal Study, to understand participation and inclusion constraints

under Village Law. The study examined villages’ experiences with Village Law im-

plementation and village governance processes. Commencing in 2015, the Sentinel

Villages Study focuses on five districts across three provinces to analyze commu-

nity participation in village development processes, as well as examine district and

sub-district support for these processes (see Figure 4). In 2017, two additional case

studies, on facilitation and village utilization, were completed. Analysis from the Sen-

tinel Villages case studies found that (i) villagers’ awareness of village programs and

the use of village funds is low; (ii) village planning meetings are not open to all villagers

(see Figure 5); (iii) villagers have greater interest in participating at hamlet meetings

(musyawarah dusun or MusDus) compared to village meetings (musyawarah desa, or

MusDes), and even when they do attend the meetings their engagement is somewhat

limited; (iv) village activists (about 80 percent) were often invited to, attended and

engaged at the MusDus and the MusDes with female village activists being almost as

engaged as their male counterparts;20 and (v) district policies influence village gov-

ernance.21 The analysis also found that women tend to not attend village meetings

if their hamlet is far from the village office and if they have children under five. While

men are less likely to attend village meetings if they come from a female-headed

household or if they are less wealthy. The findings were widely disseminated through

presentations and other events attended by MoV, MoHA, BPKP, MoF, development

partners and other stakeholders to help foster policy dialogue.

During 2017, LSP used the study’s findings, which document limited inclusion in vil-

lage governance processes, to provide evidence-based technical advice to the GoI

to help ensure that various Village Law-related regulations are more inclusive and

participatory. The Village Law PASA supported MoHA to develop the Permendagri

on Village Community Institutions (Lembaga Kemasyarakatan Desa, or LKD) and Vil-

lage Customary Institutions (Lembaga Adat Desa, or LAD). Through facilitating various

policy discussions, public consultations, and analysis, LSP provided evidence-based

technical and policy advice to help ensure that the Permendagri draft incorporated

strengthened participatory principles and elements (see Box 3). The Permendagri is

currently undergoing internal MoHA review and is expected to be issued in 2018. The

direct extent of LSP’s influence on the Permendagri will be better understood once

it has been finalized and issued. LSP also provided technical assistance to support

MoV’s ongoing revision of the regulation on Village Development and Rural Devel-

opment (Permendagri No. 114/2014), which set the rules and framework for village

planning and implementation processes, including for inclusion and participation. The

team fostered policy dialogue by conducting a workshop with legal experts to provide

feedback and recommendations on the latest version of the draft. It is anticipated that

the revised Permendagri No. 114/2014 will be finalized in 2018.

The facilitators also ensure adequate representation of different stakeholder groups

in village meetings, including vulnerable groups like women and the poor. In 2017,

Generasi expanded its support in three provinces (West Kalimantan, Central Kali-

mantan and South Sumatera). In these provinces, Generasi continued to implement

block grants through a facilitated community decision-making process whereby

communities worked with health and education service providers to identify local-

ly appropriate ways to improve access and use of health and education services.

According to LSP’s 2017 monitoring data, from the three provinces receiving block

grants, about 74 percent of the block grants were used for health activities, includ-

ing health infrastructure, facilities, equipment, and medicines. While 26 percent of

the block grants were used for education activities, such as education infrastruc-

ture, facilities, and equipment, and financial assistance for poor students. Overall,

LSP 2017 monitoring data (from Generasi’s 11 provinces) showed that approximately

65 percent of women were involved in planning and decision-making meetings.

Generasi also continued to support the provision and training of district and sub-dis-

trict facilitators. In 2017, Generasi supported national and provincial consultants to

produce training packages for Generasi village actors (including facilitators). During

the reporting period, Generasi also supported training for all 38,314 (51 percent fe-

male and 49 percent male) Generasi village actors (local facilitators, village officers,

and health and education cadres) in 11 provinces.

In line with the Village Law’s mandate, LSP continued to support village govern-

ments to better integrate health and education service delivery into regular Village

Law implementation by continuing the Generasi Integration Strategy. The integra-

tion strategy, which commenced in 2016 as a one-year pilot in six districts across

West Nusa Tenggara (Nusa Tenggara Barat, or NTB), reorients Generasi’s facilitation

support towards assisting village governments and communities to ensure village

governments address health and education issues in regular village planning and

budgeting processes. In 2017, Generasi expanded the integration strategy from the

initial six pilot districts to 44 districts. For further details on the integration strategy

and its initial results, see Chapter 4.3 Outcome 3: Local government have develop-

ment plans and budgets that better reflect community needs.

Box 3.

Influencing Policy Change - Permendagri LKD and LAD DraftedThe Village Law recognizes inclusive village development, which accommodates representation and participation of

different groups in the villages, including the village community and customary village institutions.

In 2017, LSP’s Village Law PASA supported the Directorate General (DG) of Village Government Oversight in MoHA to

draft the Permendagri on Village Community Institutions (LKD) and Village Customary Institutions (LAD). Specifically,

LSP provided technical assistance to support various discussions, public consultations, and policy and legal analyses

to inform the draft policy brief and Permendagri. Through this work, the World Bank brought together key stakehold-

ers (academics, practitioners and government officials) to discuss the prerequisites and procedures for LKD and LAD;

helped gather insights and data about community and customary institutions and the inclusiveness of vulnerable groups

(Indigenous Peoples, women, people with special needs and other community groups); and provided evidence-based

legislative TA.

This Permendagri provides formal recognition of community and customary institutions as LKD and LAD; promotes

more inclusive village development by recognizing more diverse village governance arrangements; and incorporates

strengthened participatory, gender equality, accountability, and transparency principles and elements. The regulation

also helps ensure that the villages better reflect the needs of communities.

sustainable nutrition gardens Boost nourishment, Income for Villagers in east nusa tenggara

The sweltering heat subsided as

the sun moved closer to the west

one afternoon in early August. For a

farmers group in Haikatapu Village,

Rindi Sub-district in Sumba Timur,

East Nusa Tenggara (one of the

Generasi integration location), that

only meant two things: watering and

weeding the nutrition gardens. The

two nutrition gardens occupy about

3,200 square meters of village

land, which are surrounded by rice

fields and close to a spring. A group

of eight farmers have managed the

gardens since 2012, when Generasi

handed out five sachets of vegeta-

ble seeds per person and 100 kilo-

grams of onion seeds, as part of the

initiative to improve the villagers’

nutritional intake. The farmers tend

the gardens every morning and

afternoon, and they work on their

own farms in between.

“We produce plenty of vegetables

now, from cabbage and spinach to

lettuce, eggplant and sweet pota-

to, as well as papaya,” said Ninda

Halawulang, member of the farmers

group.

The situation was very different a couple of years ago. During the dry season,

which can last up to eight months. It’s very dry in Sumba Timur and it is difficult

for people to grow vegetables, which created various nutritional issues among

the community. The farms were also not well organized, and inadequate public

transportation made it difficult for people to obtain seeds. So most people re-

lied on grocery sellers that infrequently passed through the area to purchase

vegetables.

During a village meeting, which the Generasi team attended, these issues were

discussed. Responding to the problem, the village community empowerment

cadre assisted the community to identify, budget for and buy seeds to set up

nutrition gardens. Following Generasi-conducted cadres training, the cadres

also worked with the community to establish nutrition gardens in each village.

Today, the gardens help ensure families meet their daily nutritional needs and

some of the produce is also given to seven posyandu in the area as supple-

mentary food for toddlers. The gardens also help serve as a source of income

as the communities sell the produce in the market.

“Themoneyhelpspayforourchildren’sschoolingandhouseholdexpenses,”

Ninda said, smiling.

Generasi, in coordination with the Health Agency, facilitated nutrition gardens

in three other villages in the area. A group of farmers that manages the garden

in Lukuhippa Hamlet near Haikatappu testified that the nutrition gardens have

improved their nutritional intake.

The success of the nutrition gardens has prompted village governments within

Generasi areas to discuss the initiative during village development planning

deliberative meetings with the aim to allocate village budget funds to support

the initiative’s sustainability.

Parents in KIAT Guru pilot locations initially lacked self-confidence in evaluating teachers. However, the pilot encouraged them

to participate, and helped bring teachers and communities together with the mutual goal of providing better quality education

for their children – “We as parents did not pay much attention to what happened in school, thinking there are teachers to do

that. With KIAT Guru, we are reminded that our children’s abilities mostly did not meet the standards. The teachers perform

betternow,andthecommunicationbetweenteachersandparentsnowexist,” said Maria Fransiska Di of Nggilat Village.

In 2017, the LSP ECED pilot project

successfully established a novel dis-

trict-based training system that empow-

ered local actors – district governments,

civil society, and communities – to deliv-

er professional development to teachers

to improve the availability of well-pre-

pared ECED teachers in remote rural

Indonesia. The pilot project supported

communities to actively participate in

selecting, implementing and monitoring

professional training for ECED teachers

across 25 pilot districts. The pilot proj-

ect used a structured village consulta-

tive process (either through MusDes or

a special MusDes/MD Khusus)22 to help

communities actively select three ECED

teachers from their community to partic-

ipate in the training. At the kecamatan

level, communities were also responsible for managing training funds and orga-

nizing training for community teachers, which was usually contracted out to a local

NGO. During the pilot period (2016 and 2017), 100 percent of the 2,674 pilot villages

nominated teachers through the participatory process. By the end of the project in

December 2017, 15,491 ECED teachers, of which 98 to 99 percent were women, had

benefitted from the training, ensuring a strong community role in ECED in the pilot

villages, and empowering women from poor rural villages to join the project (see

Chapter 5 for further details).

In 2017, like ECED, the KIAT Guru pilot built the capacity of communities to more ac-

tively participate in monitoring the performance of teachers to help hold them more

accountable. Specifically, LSP provided training and on-the-job capacity building for

2,030 village cadres and members of school-user committees from the 203 targeted

primary schools on how to hold teachers accountable based on teacher performance

(see Chapter 5.3 for further details).

Strengthening the sub-national government’s capacity to better plan and budget

based on community needs is critical to ensuring that village governments are more

responsive and resources are used more appropriately. During 2017, LSP conduct-

ed analytical studies to better understand village planning and budgeting practices

and constraints under the Village Law. LSP also provided technical assistance and

support at the sub-national level to improve government capacity in planning and

budgeting so that it better reflected community needs.

During 2017, the Village Law PASA supported the Sentinel Villages study to bet-

ter understand the extent to which village planning and budgeting processes in-

clude women, the poor and marginalized groups, as well as the extent to which

village plans identify investments and services likely to have a development impact.

The analysis found that women, the poor (the bottom 40 percent), female-headed

households and individuals with no formal education are less likely to attend and

participate in village- and hamlet-meetings. This work was complemented by the

ViPER Analysis, which analyzed over 1,868 village budgets, to better understand

how villages utilize and spend their increased village finances (see Chapter 6.1 for

further details on the ViPER Analysis results). Spending on non-infrastructure pover-

ty reduction/economic opportunities were quite low. Further, the analysis found that

village development funds tend to be split up among the hamlets, which often led to

small projects with limited potential for development impacts.

Generasi continued to support village governments better integrate health and ed-

ucation service delivery into regular Village Law implementation through the Gen-

erasi Integration Strategy. In 2017, LSP continued to support the integration strategy,

which is implemented in three phases over 2016 to 2018,23 by providing reoriented

facilitation support to local governments and communities, and operational funds

for capacity building (e.g. facilitation and training for village heads, apparatus and

village cadres, etc.). Analysis from the Generasi Integration Strategy’s pilot project in

six districts in NTB (2016-2017) indicated positive results in terms of village govern-

ments’ increasingly allocating APBDes funding for health and education services. In

2017, all six pilot districts in NTB issued draft district regulations that enable health

and education services to be funded under the APBDes. Some districts also en-

forced minimum health and education spending requirements to boost funding for

basic services. For example, Nganjuk District Government in East Java successfully

enforced a minimum APBDes allocation of 30 percent for health and education ac-

tivities. Analysis from LSP’s monitoring

data indicates that on average APB-

Des allocations for health and educa-

tion spending in 411 villages in the six

NTB pilot districts increased from 10.9

percent (2016) to 15.8 percent (2017).24

This included spending on posyandu/

poskedes buildings, toilets, supplemen-

tary feeding, and cadres incentives and

training. While allocations were main-

ly for infrastructure, non-infrastructure

budget allocations also rose from 2.8

percent (2016) to 4.8 percent (2017).

During field missions, it was also report-

ed that in some of the six pilot districts,

non-infrastructure health and education

APBDes budgets were larger than the

Generasi block grant received the pre-

vious year.

In 2017, LSP expanded its integration

support from six districts in NTB to 44

districts across eight provinces (phase

two). Across the 44 districts, Genera-

si-supported facilitators conducted advocacy activities to ensure the inclusion of

health and education under District Action Planning and Budgeting (Rencana Aksi

Daerah, or RAD). While it is still too early to determine Generasi’s influence on the

44 districts’ health and education APBDes spending, initial results indicate that Gen-

erasi’s facilitation support has helped strengthen District Head Regulations (Pera-

turan Bupati, or Perbup) related to the use of Dana Desa for health and education

activities. For example, in 2017 among the 44 districts, it was reported that some

district governments strengthened Perbup to enable APBDes to fund incentives

for posyandu and PAUD cadres and supplementary feeding activities, including in

Gorontalo District (see example below). In 2018, LSP will continue to expand the in-

tegration strategy to include all 66 Generasi districts (including the three provinces

which received block grants in 2017). Further results will be reported during the next

reporting period.

In the ECED project, which ended in December 2017,25 there are encouraging signs

that many district governments from the 25 pilot districts are keen to use Dana

Desa to continue operating the ECED training system set up by the project. In one

case, the district government in Gorontalo District has led the way by issuing its own

district head (Bupati) regulation to enable Dana Desa to be used to support the

The data is captured by Generasi-supported facilitators and collated in the Generasi’s man-agement information system (MIS). The data is validated by the province and shared with national-level government.25 LSP is currently discussing various possible extension opportunities.

continuation of the project into 2018, and allocating Rp 155 million (US$11,650) to

advanced ECED teacher training in its 2018 budget. There are also indications (e.g.

district governments issued a new Perbup that states that Dana Desa can be used

to support ECED activities) that as many as one-third of the other 24 pilot districts

are keen to follow Gorontalo’s example.

Through the MELAYANI project, which commenced in October 2017, LSP is work-

ing with three pilot district governments using a problem-driven approach to help

local governments analyze existing data, plan, budget, and deliver solutions that

address local needs and service delivery challenges. During the reporting period,

MELAYANI selected three pilot districts, including Kubu Raya (West Kalimantan),

Bojonegoro (East Java), and Belu (East Nusa Tenggara), based on political com-

mitments and buy-ins. Each pilot district selected an issue that they would like to

address. In Kubu Raya, the government is working to reduce incidences of stunt-

ing; in Bojonegoro to reduce infant mortality; and in Belu to improve quality of

basic education. The World Bank-supported MELAYANI coaches also supported

district governments to commence baseline data collection, which will be used

by the pilot districts to analyze and support change processes in 2018. The proj-

ect will be assessed in October 2018.

In Pamburu, East Nusa Tenggara, the village head supported three female village members to join local food processing training

after it was raised as an issue in a village meeting, which was attended by Generasi beneficiaries. The training was held by the

Waingapu District’s Family Welfare Movement (PKK) and financed by the district government’s budget (APBD). After the training,

the three women passed their knowledge on to another 30 PKK members in their village through a Generasi-facilitated training.

Together, they cooked supplementary food out of ingredients from their local farm and gave it to the posyandu to distribute to

children in Pamburu. The food is also sold in the market or school – “The food cooked from PKK farm’s produce is sold and the

money is for our petty cash or capital for our weaving business,” said Bangu Kahi, a PKK member.

The GoI is increasingly focusing on improving not only the availability, but also the quality of village service delivery after increased government spending on basic services has struggled to improve Indonesia’s performance in terms of important human development indicators.

For example, about 37 percent or Indonesia’s nine million children are stunted.

Further education outcomes are often hindered by high teacher absenteeism.

These issues tend to be exacerbated in rural areas where basic health, education

and infrastructure are lacking both in terms of quality and quantity.

LSP works with multiple GoI ministries and a broad range of stakeholders to help

ensure beneficiaries receive more equitable and quality services. Building on past

PNPM experiences and the GoI’s frontline service approach, LSP recognizes the

importance of building both the supply and demand sides to improve access to and

quality of basic service delivery. In 2017, LSP worked with the GoI and other local ac-

tors to help improve the availability of services, better connect villages with service

providers, link service providers’ incentives with the quality of services provided,

and involve communities in holding service providers more accountable. Further,

continued efforts by the LSP and other World Bank teams have influenced the GoI

in making nutrition and early years development, particularly stunting, a key national

agenda and priority. Together, these efforts have demonstrated positive results in

terms of improving access to services (such as the number of professionally-trained

ECED teachers in remote areas), communities’ utilization of health services, and the

quality of education services provided in rural and remote schools across parts of

Indonesia.

Monitoring & evaluation (M&e)

After the transition from PSF to LSP, in 2017, the Facil-

ity revitalized its monitoring, evaluation and learning

(MEL) framework to better align with LSP’s new man-

date – supporting the GoI to improve the quality of

life of poor and vulnerable Indonesians through local

solutions to reduce poverty and inequality. During this

period, the LSP Secretariat dedicated significant re-

sources to develop a revised Theory of Change (see

Annex 1) and MEL Plan (MELP), which were developed

following three facilitated workshops with the LSP Fa-

cility team in May, August and November 2017. The

LSP Secretariat also provided resources to support

the operationalization of LSP’s MELP and MEL tools,

including the activity-level tracking tool, an influence

log, after action review and a reflections workshop,

which was used to reflect on and gain consensus

about LSP’s 2017 achievements and challenges, and

future priorities. The findings from these tools were

used to support and inform Facility learning and de-

cision-making, as well as the LSP Annual Report 2017.

As a Facility, LSP also undertakes various rigorous IE

and process evaluations to understand the direct im-

pact from LSP-supported initiatives. LSP uses evalua-

tion results to inform its implementation decisions and

program planning, along with GoI policy frameworks,

institutions and systems that guide village develop-

ment and basic service delivery. For example, in 2017,

LSP undertook the following evaluations:

• The Long-Term Generasi IE (fourth round), which

commenced in 2007, was completed in 2017 (see

Box 7). The results are being used to inform Indone-

sia’s increasing evidence base about the drivers of

stunting; and the proposed World Bank INEY oper-

ation in 2018, particularly related to anthropometric

measurements and related health and nutrition.

• The KIAT Guru IE completed the baseline survey,

which found a teacher absenteeism rate of 25 per-

cent in the 270 pilot primary schools. The study also

found that there are barely any students who have

attained the ability level corresponding to the grade

they currently attend (the majority are generally two

grade-levels behind). The pilot conducted three in-

tervention models, which combine community em-

powerment with pay-for-performance of teacher

allowance based on community verification and

evaluation. The endline survey will be completed

by the end of March 2018, when the impact of the

Enrolment in ECED services varies widely across Indonesia

and rural areas tend to fall below the national average. For

example, ECED enrollment in Java is 98 percent, but it is only

5 percent in the more remote Papua Province. To help im-

prove the availability and access of ECED services at the vil-

lage level, LSP continued to implement the two-year ECED

pilot project in 25 pilot districts using a district-based, com-

munity-focused ECED training system to better link the de-

mand and supply sides. The ECED pilot project brought var-

ious stakeholders, including NGOs, civil society, and village

community groups together and delivered ECED training. With

over 15,000 trained ECED teachers benefitting from the new

system, children aged up to six in more than 2,650 remote

villages can now access better-trained ECED teachers. More-

over, many ECED classes take place in, or close to, posyandu

facilities. Capitalizing on the proximity of ECED classrooms to

the posyandu facilities, Generasi identified opportunities to

deliver health services and nutritional support to mothers of

early years children.

The ECED project demonstrated strong demand both from

village teachers wanting to participate in the training program

and from parents for ECED services at the village level for

children aged up to six years old. This demand is evident

through various district and national government stakehold-

ers who have expressed their commitment to continuing and

expanding the ECED frontline model, and requested technical

assistance to support this effort. For example, at the national

level, MoEC will adopt and disseminate the training materials

outcomes will be analyzed.

developed for the ECED pilot project

and the lessons learned nationwide.

MoEC has invited the World Bank to

present the ECED pilot findings and

training materials at the 2018 National

Coordination Workshop of Director-

ate Teacher for ECED and Community

Education (Rapat Koordinasi Program

Pembinaan GTK PAUD dan Dikmas Ta-

hun 2018), which will be attended by up

to 500 districts across three regions.

MoEC will also use the ECED pilot train-

ing materials in the annual district Train-

er of Trainers (ToT), which will be rolled

out across approximately 100 districts in

2018. At the sub-national level, demand

is evident through the number of district

governments issuing a new Perbup that

states that Dana Desa can be used for

ECED. Anecdotal evidence suggest that

about one-third of the 25 pilot districts

have issued a new Perbup. In 2018,

under the proposed ECED extension,

LSP will undertake a study to identify

and document the number of new Per-

bup that were issued as a result of the

ECED pilot project. This study also aims

to document village demand for the

ECED pilot. Teacher absenteeism in re-

mote areas is high. For example, one

in five teachers are absent in remote

schools, which is more than double the

national average. Like ECED, KIAT Guru

empowers communities to improve

the availability and quality of teachers

across remote areas in Indonesia. Using

a combination of various initiatives (ser-

vice agreement, community scorecards,

user committees, capacity building and

camera monitoring), the pilot project

empowered communities to demand

better services, and tie their verifica-

tions and evaluations with payment of

teacher allowance. Initial results indicate

that the pilot project has led to positive

outcomes in terms of improving teacher

presence and service performance (see

Chapter 5.3 for further details).

teSting innovative WayS to Better connect viLLageS With ServiceS

In 2017, LSP helped MoV operationalize

the VIP and generate innovations and

learning across Indonesia’s villages to identify solutions and better connect villages

so they can access the services they require. LSP leveraged the GoI’s VIP national

platform and Generasi program to design and hold the first round of innovation

knowledge exchange events. In March 2017, Generasi supported the Village Inno-

vations Festival pilot project in NTB, which brought together over 350 participants

from LGs, civil society and the private sector to showcase and learn about service

delivery innovations. The Village Innovations Festival acted as a pilot to inform the

VIP’s Village Innovation Exchanges (Bursa Inovasi Desa).

In 2017, 219 district-level Bursa Inovasi Desa events were held across Indonesia.

The Bursa Inovasi Desa events brought together 185,900 participants (including an

estimated 55,300 women)26 from 55,302 villages (from 5,481 sub-districts) at the dis-

Box 6.

Private sector engagement

LSP recognizes that collaboration with the private sector can bring more sus-

tainable impacts. The private sector not only drives economic productivity

and participation, which generates economic growth, but can also play an

important role in filling important service gaps.

As part of the VIP, LSP is assisting GoI to identify and build the capacity of

about 2,604 village-level TSPs to support villages to implement innovative

ideas as identified through the Bursa Inovasi Desa events. It is intended that

these TSPs will include local firms and companies, as well as NGOs, CSOs

and universities. Through VIP, LSP will support the GoI to assist villages to

procure services (on fee-basis) to deliver needed projects and activities re-

lated to entrepreneurship, human capital and infrastructure. As discussed in

Chapter 5.1, VIP supported initial preparations to identify and train potential

TSPs across Indonesia.

Going forward, LSP will also pilot a “public, private and people partnership”

(P4) model of local economic development (LED) that will empower both vil-

lage farm and non-farm entrepreneurs to form productive alliance, use Dana

Desa for productive investment and empower female entrepreneurs. This P4

model will be piloted in 2018.

26 This figure is estimated based on the program technical guidance and protocols which suggest that each village should be represented by at least one woman. It is estimated that there was one female par-ticipant from each of the 55,302 participating villages.

To improve and expand the delivery of health and education services, Generasi

expanded its Village Law integration pilot project from six districts in 2016 to 44 dis-

tricts in 2017. As highlighted earlier, in 2017, Generasi provided technical assistance

to national and provincial project consultants to produce a training package for facil-

itators to improve the delivery of health and education services in Generasi villages.

Generasi also supported refresher training for all 38,314 (51 percent female and 49

percent male) Generasi village actors (local facilitators, village officer, and health and

education cadres) in 11 provinces and training for 564 posyandu staff.

In 2017, LSP monitoring data showed that Generasi’s ongoing efforts have improved

key access and utilization indicators in Generasi villages including increases in the

included village representatives (such

as village governments, village councils

and community leaders), sub-district of-

ficials, different district-level agencies

(dinas), and in some cases Technical

Service Providers (TSP).27 In 2017, the

events generated over 9,454 village

innovations ideas or “idea cards” (Kar-

tu IDE, or Inovasi Desaku),28 including

5,929 ideas related to entrepreneur-

ship, 3,018 human capital ideas and

507 village infrastructure ideas. The

generated ideas were wide ranging and

included innovations related to waste

recycling, using an online ticketing

system to encourage village-level tour-

ism, village product improvement and

packaging, and improving the quality

of PAUD and posyandu services. More

than 31,600 village “commitments” to

replicate innovations were also made at

the Bursa events.29 To support the roll-

out of the Bursa Inovasi Desa events,

1,302 district facilitators, 434 District

Agency of Community and Village

Empowerment (Dinas Pemberdayaan

Masyarakat dan Desa, or DPMD) offi-

were trained on village innovation. Fur-

ther, 363 district innovations teams (Tim

Inovasi Kabupaten, or TIK) and 5,362

sub-district implementing innovations

teams (Tim Pelaksana Inovasi Desa, or

TPID) were established.

LSP also supported MoV to establish the

Technical Service Providers (TSP) mod-

el under the VIP platform. The TSP con-

cept involves a third-party facilitation

and capacity-building model for villages

whereby villages can procure or hire in-

stitutions and/or skilled individuals (e.g.

local firms, NGOs, CSOs and universi-

27 TSPs can include a range of third parties including local firms, NGOs, CSOs and universities. The TSP concept is a third-party facilitation and capacity-building model for villages.28 Idea cards are for innovation ideas that villages have implemented but are not yet captured and documented. Villages can bring innovation ideas to the Bursa events for the District Innovation/Sub-District Innovation Teams to review. If the innovation ideas meet the VIP Innovation criteria, the innovations can be captured and showcased as a “village innovation” during the next Bursa event.29 Commitments refer to the instances where villages at the Bursa events committed to replicating an innovation in their own village. During the Bursa events, these commit-ments were recorded by village representatives on “commitment cards.”30 The three provinces (West Kalimantan, Central Kalimantan and South Sumatera), which received block grants in 2017.

specific village development issues (e.g. micro-hydroelectricity system, village busi-

ness development and marketing etc.). This practice is not new in Indonesia and is

not supposed to replace the current structure of village facilitation. Instead, it aims

to fill the specific skillset and expertise gaps within the existing facilitator structure.

Under the VIP, TSPs will be engaged to support villages that do not have the tech-

nical skills or capacity to replicate and implement innovative ideas (LED, human

capital and infrastructure ideas) as identified through the Bursa Inovasi Desa events.

The VIP Operation aims to improve the availability and accessibility of good quality

TSPs. It is intended that the TIKs will verify and develop a directory of TSPs at the

district level. Meanwhile, the TPID will support villages and TSPs to connect at the

kecamatan level. As part of the VIP, LSP is assisting the GoI to identify and build the

capacity of about 2,604 village-level TSPs. In 2017, this involved supporting the iden-

tification of initial TSPs in 130 districts and preparing training materials (three mod-

ules on entrepreneurship, infrastructure and human capital development), which will

be used to train 12 grandmaster trainers, 30 master trainers and then a further 294

trainers and 2,604 TSPs.

generasi long term Impact evaluationIn 2017, LSP completed a “fourth wave” Impact Evaluation of the Generasi Sehat

and Cerdas Project, which originally started in 2007. The Generasi Long-Term

Impact Evaluation (Generasi L/T IE) provided a rare and unique opportunity to

learn about the longer-term impacts of the project. Following analysis of the final

dataset, MIS data and village budget data in 2017, the main findings relating to

the Project’s intermediate outcomes and impacts were presented to Bappenas

in early 2018. The intermediate outcomes consisted of pre- and post-natal care,

birth delivery, immunizations, iron pills, Vitamin A distribution, and school partici-

pation indicators, while the impacts related to malnutrition and stunting.

The L/T IE found that stunting declined among zero-to-three year olds from al-

most 40 percent to 26 percent between 2009 and 2016, with no detectable dif-

ference between the control and Generasi locations. However, the L/T IE found

that the Project continued to effectively mobilize community members to attend

the village health posts (posyandu).

Findings from the Generasi L/T IE are contributing to Indonesia’s evidence

base about the drivers of stunting, and future GoI priorities related to stunt-

ing and Village Law expenditures on health and education challenges.

The Generasi L/T IE is also informing the Investing in Nutrition and Early Years

(INEY) Program-for-Results operation, particularly findings relating to the role of

communication mobilization, social accountability and technical measurement

of stunting.

(e.g. attending posyandu). Following

high-level discussions between Presi-

dent Joko Widodo, Minister of Finance

Sri Mulyani Indrawati and World Bank

President Jim Yong Kim in July 2017,

Generasi launched preparations for the

Human Development Worker (HDW)

Pilot Project. Building on Generasi’s

approach, the HDW pilot project aims

to test a model for involving villages

in frontline service delivery to address

local service delivery challenges. The

HDW model provides a mechanism for

districts to support villages to plan and

implement national priority programs,

such as stunting reduction. It is intend-

ed that HDWs will use a range of tools

(checklists, scorecards, stunting length

mats and social mapping) to over-

come key information gaps, diagnose

local drivers of complex development

problems (such as stunting), and help

monitor and demand improved service

delivery. HDWs include health cadres,

ECED teachers and staff, and regular

village development cadres (KPMD)

who are all involved in village plan-

ning and budgeting processes. The

pilot project will be implemented in

3,105 villages across 281 sub-districts

and 31 stunting priority districts to help

promote, incentivize and converge

multi-sectoral village efforts to reduce

stunting. The first 30 HDWs are expect-

ed to be trained in January 2018. It is

intended that the pilot project will in-

form the GoI’s national scale-up (up to

75,000 HDWs) as part of the National

Action Plan to reduce stunting.

stunting as national Priority AgendaAbout 37 percent or approximately nine million children in

Indonesia are stunted, affecting their education and health

at an individual level, and hampering economic growth and

labor market productivity at the national level. Over the

past several years, the World Bank has supported a range

of high-level policy dialogue, operations and pilots, ongo-

ing technical advice and analytical work in multiple sectors

(health, education, social protection, water and sanitation

(WASH), social development and governance) that gener-

ated useful lessons on the technical content, implementa-

tion modalities and enabling environment to effectively ad-

dress the nutrition and early years agenda. In 2017, LSP, and

other World Bank teams, were instrumental in developing

and launching a multi-sectoral national strategy to reduce

stunting. During the reporting period, LSP supported various

high-level meetings, supported dialogue across multiple

ministries, and provided inputs into two cabinet meetings in

July and August 2017. LSP’s ongoing knowledge exchange

program with Peru, Nepal, and other countries also helped

enrich learning experiences of government officials (from all

countries) about best practices and successful interventions

in addressing malnutrition through a multi-sectoral conver-

gence approach. Specifically, in April 2017, LSP leveraged its

access to international expertise and global knowledge to

support a knowledge exchange field trip delegation of key

GoI officials (from MoSA, MoF, MoHA, MoV, Bappenas and

Kemenko PMK) to partake in a study visit to Peru to look at

its positive experiences in reducing stunting—despite sig-

nificantly higher poverty levels than in Indonesia. Key fac-

tors and learnings from Peru that can be linked with policy

changes in Indonesia include:

1. Strong political will and commitment at the highest level;

2. A coordinated multi-sectoral program that included

health, nutrition, ECED, WASH, and Social Protection in-

terventions;

3. Geographical targeting of vulnerable low-income

populations;

4. Performance-based budgeting;

5. Alignment of incentives for households, health facili-

ties and local government; and

6. A credible data information system, clear and achiev-

able targets, and a monitoring and evaluation system.

The experience in Peru also helped reinforce the idea

of using specialized local facilitators, known as HDWs,

to become the driving force in converging multi-sec-

toral efforts at the village level to address stunting. As

a result, a Generasi pilot project (the HDW pilot proj-

ect), which adopts the HDW approach, commenced

preparations in 2017.

LSP’s efforts, along with other WorldBank teams, result-

ed in the GoI identifying stunting as a national priority

and developing a Presidential National Action Plan. The

National Action Plan aims to converge or bring togeth-

er existing national, regional and community programs

to deliver a set of priority nutrition-specific and nutri-

tion-sensitive interventions in the first 1,000 days of a

child’s life and up until age six. The World Bank’s recent

capacity-building efforts further cemented the World

Bank’s strategic position to support the operationaliza-

tion of the GoI’s convergence strategy. The GoI has re-

quested a new World Bank operation - Investing in Nu-

trition and Early Years (INEY) Operation - and additional

support from LSP for the National Action Plan. The INEY

Operation, which commenced preparations in 2017, will

support the GoI’s national stunting agenda through build-

ing on lessons learned from Generasi and the ECED pilot

project, as well as other GoI executed programs. TNP2K

will be the implementing agency for the INEY Operation.

In Rindi Sub-district, East Sumba in East Nusa Tenggara, the

Local Health Office, education institutions and Generasi sup-

ported a school-based program to raise awareness about

good personal hygiene and sanitation. Generasi promoted

good hand-washing techniques, provided water dispens-

ers and distributed personal hygiene sets to 14 elementary

schools in Rindi Sub-district. Sukmayani, the visiting doctor

from the local community health centre (puskesmas), said

the community-led, total sanitation program has helped de-

crease the number of cases of sanitation and hygiene-relat-

ed diseases among children in the area – “January through March usually has the highest prevalence of diarrhea among children but this year, the number is lower.”

outcome 3: Beneficiaries have improved quality of health and education services

PROGRESS TOWARDS EOFO TWO

Improved access and utilization of ba-

sic services do not necessarily result

in improved development (health and

education) outcomes if the available

services are of poor quality. Given

that health and education outcomes

are still lagging despite increased GoI

spending, LSP, in line with the GoI, is

increasingly shifting its support to-

wards improving the quality of basic

services. To do this, in 2017, LSP sup-

ported a range of initiatives to help em-

power communities to demand better

quality services.

emPoWering citiZenS to monitor anD DemanD Better QuaLity ServiceS

The KIAT Guru pilot project is helping

to improve the quality of education ser-

vices in remote villages by empowering

communities to monitor and evaluate

teacher attendance and performance

in pilot primary schools. In Indonesia,

teacher salary and allowances totaled

US$16.5 billion in 2016, but improved

teacher welfare has not led to improved

teacher performance or student learn-

ing outcomes. In KIAT Guru pilot loca-

tions, one in four (25 percent) of 2,301

teachers were missing from the 270

remote primary schools visited during

the unannounced baseline survey. This

resulted in 23 percent of classrooms

with no teachers, and 6,926 of 31,076

students not learning. To improve the

quality of education services, the KIAT

Guru pilot program implemented var-

ious empowerment initiatives (com-

munity scorecards, user committees,

capacity building, and camera appli-

cations) to improve teacher service

performance and student learning out-

comes. In 2017, KIAT Guru continued

to refine and implement a community

scorecard system to engage communi-

ties, through school-user committees,

in evaluating teacher service perfor-

mance. During the reporting period,

all provider groups (teachers and prin-

cipals) and user groups (parents and

community representatives) agreed

to its use in all 203 targeted primary

schools across the five pilot districts.

Initial results from a KIAT Guru pro-

cess monitoring (conducted at the end

of 2017) indicated that tying teachers’

special allowance (TK) payments to

a combination of scorecards to mea-

sure teacher performance and the

KIAT Kamera mechanism (see Box 9

and Box 10) to measure teacher pres-

ence is having a positive impact on

teacher attendance, teacher service

performance, and student learning

outcomes. The results showed that

teacher presence, as reported by

members of the school-user commit-

tees, improved from 65 percent (mid-

2016) to 93.4 percent (December 2017),

which is beyond the 80 percent target.

Meanwhile, perceived teacher service

quality increased from 56 percent to

96 percent (target: 85 percent) in the

same period.31 The direct impact of the

pilot project will be better understood

following the completion of the IE’s

endline survey on teacher attendance,

teacher service performance and stu-

dent learning outcomes in March 2018.

Data on student utilization of primary

school services will also be collected.

Given the pilot’s initial positive out-

comes, MoEC and TNP2K expressed

their support to determine how the pi-

lot project could be scaled-up across

all of Indonesia’s 122 disadvantaged

districts (Pembangunan Daerah Tert-

inggal, or PDT), and/or modified and

applied to urban contexts.

The GoI has recently made large in-

vestments in ECED nationally, but not

a large investment in the quality of

services provided. International expe-

rience shows that high-quality teachers

are key to delivering high-quality ECED

services and child development out-

comes. In the ECED project, enhanced

training resources were adapted for

the village context and introduced in all

25 pilot districts in 2017. The new dis-

trict-based, community-focused ECED

teacher training system was estab-

lished in all 25 pilot districts and all

targeted teachers were trained in

the basic competencies emphasized

in the new system. This ECED teach-

er-training system has demonstrated

32 The ECED pilot project did not collect primary data on the number of children under the care of each ECED training participant’s local ECED service. However, the ECED pilot project conducted a survey of 600 randomly surveyed ECED teachers. Analysis from the survey found that the average ECED teacher-to-children ratio for the surveyed teachers is approximately 1:11. This ratio was used to determine the approximate number of children that benefited from the improved ECED services.

Box 9.

Delivering Innovative Initiatives

In 2017, LSP trialed innovative ways to achieve results, including introducing

new ways to engage and empower communities to deliver, monitor and de-

mand improved services:

• LSP’s KIAT Guru pilot utilizes KIAT Kamera (Box 10), an innovative tam-

per-proof Android-based application, to provide accurate data on daily

teacher attendance in rural primary schools. Android mobile phones are

provided by the pilot project to schools taking part in the project and up-

loaded with the KIAT Kamera application. This app calculates the total num-

ber of hours of presence of each teacher every school day. This indicator,

in conjunction with performance indicators measured using scorecards

evaluated by members of the school-user committees, determines the

amount of teacher special allowance (TK) payable to individual teachers.

• TheECEDpilot’smajor innovationwas thedesign,provisionand imple-

mentation of a new village-based community-focused ECED teacher

training system in 25 pilot districts. The approach was novel as it brought

together different, and previously disconnected, actors at the sub-dis-

trict level (district government, community groups and civil society) and

bridged the communication gaps between these stakeholders to deliver

a ECED training program. Further the new village-based system was more

accessible compared to the current system, which is top-down approach

delivered at the national and provincial level and is expensive and incon-

venient for teachers in rural and remote areas. The ECED pilot brought

together disparate elements that had never been integrated in the Indo-

nesian content to expand teachers’ access to high-quality professional

development ECED training.

training programs to deliver profes-

sional training to – and thus improve

the quality of – ECED teachers in poor

and remote villages. It is estimated that

approximately 170,400 children have

benefited from the improved ECED

services across the 25 pilot districts.32

The system also has the potential to

be continued by delivering post-basic

training through knowledge exchange

with trainers. In addition, case studies

on the ECED pilot project were un-

dertaken in three of the 25 pilot dis-

tricts to provide feedback about the

potential sustainability and scalability

of the pilot project, and the possible

constraints in scaling up the project to

other sub-districts in the pilot districts

and to other districts. Additional case

studies are planned for 2018. Initial

results from LSP supervision and the

forthcoming ECED process evaluation

indicate community satisfaction with

the trained ECED trainers and positive

improvements in the way ECED teach-

ers interact with children. The ECED

process evaluation is expected to be

completed in 2018 and will identify how

the pilot improved teachers’ compe-

tency. Lessons learned will also inform

preparation for potential scale up and/

or integration with Dana Desa.

It was almost 7:30 a.m. and the

principal and teachers at Mboeng

Elementary School (SDN Mboeng)

in remote Kaju Wangi Village, Elar

Sub-district in Manggarai Timur,

East Nusa Tenggara, took turns to

take each other’s photographs with

a cellular phone. They were not

about to update their social media

profile pictures, but instead were

taking part in the KIAT Guru pilot

program, which aims to improve ed-

ucation service delivery in remote

villages by empowering communi-

ties to verify teachers’ attendance

and evaluate service performance.

Teacher attendance was an issue in

Kaju Wangi Village. Some teachers

would often arrive 90 minutes after

class was supposed to start, if they

came at all. An unannounced visit to

SDN Mboeng on October 31, 2016

found that one in six or 17 percent

of teachers were absent.

To help address teacher absentee-

ism, the KIAT Guru pilot program

began in July 2016 and was imple-

mented in 203 primary schools in five disadvantaged districts. The program

uses three intervention models: (1) community empowerment; (2) community

empowerment and tying teacher allowances to their attendance; and (3) com-

munity empowerment and tying teacher allowances to their service quality.

Over a three-month period, SDN Mboeng carried out the second intervention

model where teachers and the principal have to clock in using a camera app.

The community then verifies teacher presence and evaluates teacher service

performance using community scorecards. This model worked wonders in re-

ducing the rate of teachers’ absenteeism and late attendance.

“In the past three months, none of the teachers were late. And it trickles down

to the students. Seeing their teachers disciplined, the children are now in or-

der too. They are better mannered and they rarely come late anymore even

though many of them have to walk for 30 minutes to one hour to get to school,”

said Andreas Jemahang, a KIAT Guru cadre whose son also studies at the ele-

mentary school.

Initial results, from a baseline student learning assessment and a diagnostic test

for Bahasa Indonesia and mathematics, indicate the program’s positive impact

on student learning outcomes too.

“The baseline student learning assessment was conducted in September 2016

Progress towards eoFo three: national and local governments Make Better use of Financial resources

LSP helps the GoI ensure that its resources achieve their intended development and

poverty objectives. During 2017, LSP provided technical analysis on fund flows and

resource allocation formulas to ensure that the money is going to where it is most

needed. It also provided support on governance and accountability systems, based

on evidence and domestic and global best practices, to help ensure that resources

are being used in more efficient and effective ways, and that the poor and vulnerable

groups are more integrated into the development process at the local level. In

order to track how resources are being spent and generate data that the national

and local governments can use to make more informed decisions, LSP provided

analytical and capacity-building support for financial management and M&E systems

across the different levels of government. LSP also tested innovations, through pilot

projects and accompanying analytical support and TA, to identify opportunities for

high impact, transformational change through large-scale expansion. At the national

level, LSP’s efforts have influenced and strengthened national policy agendas and

systems, including making the 2018 Dana Desa Allocation Formula more pro-poor;

strengthening VFM regulations (revised Permendagri No. 113/2014) and tracking

systems (Siskeudes); and generating greater knowledge about how villages spend

their increased fiscal resources (ViPER). Meanwhile at the sub-national level,

LSP’s efforts have contributed to promising outcomes in terms of increasing LGs’

awareness about, and ability to, plan and budget funds more effectively. This will be

an increasing focus going forward.

outcome 1: strengthen national frameworks and systems for tracking village finances and outputs

Village financial management is an im-

portant building block for improving

Village Law implementation, account-

ability, transparency and performance.

Without consistent quality tracking of vil-

lage finances and outputs, governments

and citizens do not have sufficient in-

formation on how village finances are

spent, which limits their ability to make

informed decisions and take corrective

actions to maximize the development

impact of the significant amounts of

resources being channeled down to

villages. While the Village Law outlines

the rules and responsibilities for track-

ing village finances, in practice, weak

supporting regulations and systems and

limited capacity hinder reliable data col-

lection and tracking.

unDerStanDing conStraintS to DiSBurSing anD tracKing viLLage FinanceS

During 2017, the Village Law PASA

used results from its analytical studies

to provide evidence-based advice to

the GoI to help inform and strengthen

VFM frameworks and systems. As high-

lighted earlier, LSP expanded the ViPER

Analysis, with an additional sample of

1,868 villages, to provide the GoI with

the most in-depth review currently avail-

able in Indonesia on how villages spend

their increased funds. Currently, stan-

dard village spending reports provide a

distorted picture of how villages spend

their funds, in part due to challenges

with how village activities and expendi-

tures are grouped and classified. ViPER,

initiated in 2015, seeks to address this

shortcoming. In partnership with MoHA

(Bina Pemdes), the ViPER team collects

village budgets and spending reports,

enters them into a database, and then

carefully reclassifies village budgets and expenditures to standard classifications

to provide a more reliable view of village revenue spending. ViPER highlighted im-

portant trends in village spending, including the fact that the sampled 1,868 villages

spent on average 39 percent of their annual revenue on administration (more than

the 30 percent ceiling) versus only 5 percent for health and education. These find-

ings triggered LSP to provide TA to MoHA to revise its regulation (Permendagri No.

113/2014) governing VFM. Among the inputs to revise the draft regulation was a push

to re-classify village activities and associated finances and outputs (see Box 11). To

date, ViPER results have been shared with MoF, MoHA, MoV as well as the office

of the President. MoHA further plans to revise an existing regulation on APBDes

evaluation to include the ViPER methodology as the main tool for assessing Village

Budgets and Realization Reports. Work was also initiated with MoHA to present

the ViPER methodology to LG officials to improve their skills in aggregating and

analyzing village financial data and expenditures. Together, these developments

indicate that ViPER is on its way to being institutionalized in government systems

and mechanisms.

The Village Law PASA also completed a survey monitoring report on Dana Desa

disbursements. The survey found that there have been improvements in Dana Desa

disbursements since 2015, flagging specific district and village constraints that con-

tinue to reduce timeliness of village transfers. For example, some constraints in-

cluded unclear national regulations on village priority setting; delays in preparing

and enacting Perbup and evaluating village budgets and reports; and difficulties

with villages preparing budgets, compiling receipts, and developing realization re-

ports. The findings have contributed to LSP’s work on VFM; as well as deepen the

Facility’s increasing focus on assessing districts and sub-districts’ capacities to ad-

equately support, supervise, and oversee villages. The disbursement monitoring

work triggered MoF to revise their regulations (into PMK No. 50/2017 and updat-

ed to PMK No. 112/2017). Specific improvements that influenced the preparation of

PMK No. 50/2017 include: (i) output reporting (the disbursement monitoring showed

limited output information from Dana Desa); and (ii) the GoI introduced a stricter

absorption reporting requirement for the next tranche disbursement. The disburse-

ment monitoring survey also acted as an impetus for the proposed revisions for

Permendagri No. 113/2014, particularly related to chart of accounts (COA) and asset

reporting. The disbursement monitoring analysis also prompted MoF to require DG

Treasury to work with DG Fiscal Balance to monitor funds disbursement and output

reporting from Dana Desa through the Treasury Payment offices (Kantor Pelayanan

Perbendaharaan Negara, or KPPN) and On-Line Monitoring through the National

Treasury System (Sistem Perbendaharaan dan Anggaran Negara, or OMSPAN).

The ViPER findings, especially on inconsistencies on how villages classify their fi-

nances, contributed directly to extensive TA to MoHA to help draft its revised reg-

ulation on VFM (Permendagri No. 113/2014) (Box 11). Specifically, a Village Law PA-

SA-supported consultant provided substantive analysis and recommendations to

38CHAPTER SIX

the MoHA team in drafting the regulation, including on strengthening village finan-

cial classification, budgeting, reporting requirements and expenditure management,

among other topics. The revised regulation is expected to be enacted in 2018 and

will set the stage for how villages manage their finances. It will be vital in simplifying

budgeting classifications and enabling the aggregation of fiscal data, as well as

clarifying the specific roles of the various GoI entities and reducing overlapping

authorities.

The Village Law PASA also continued to provide TA for the rollout and upgrading of

a village financial management application (Sistem Keuangan Desa, or Siskeudes)

that provides village governments with a tool to better account for the use of their

village funds by submitting standardized budgets and realization reports. LSP pro-

vided TA to support improvements to the Siskeudes system, a trial before the appli-

cation was launched, and training modules to support the rollout. As of December

31, 2017, 70,380 villages in 418 districts received information on Siskeudes, 68,940

village in 413 districts received training/workshops on Siskeudes, and 64,756 villag-

es in 403 districts had the Siskeudes application uploaded and running.

Going forward, BPKP and MoHA will upgrade the Siskeudes application to match the

revised Permendagri No. 113/2014, add a village output module, help more villages

connect Siskeudes to districts and allow districts to consolidate village spending

data, and link Siskeudes with the MoF’s database, OMSPAN. Together, this work pro-

vides important building blocks for improved village governance and accountability.

The Village Law PASA is planning to soon aid MoF (and MoHA) to standardize output

nomenclatures (activity and output labels) as well as standardize output metrics to

ensure consistency in output reporting. By overlaying the output data on socio-eco-

nomic information, it is expected that government capacities to understand the con-

tribution of outputs to socio-economic indicators will be strengthened.

Influencing Policy Change - revised Permendagri No. 113/2014Village financial management (VFM)

is outlined by the Permendagri No.

113/2014 (2014), however there are

key weaknesses in the regulation,

such as limitations with the classifica-

tion structure which make it difficult to

undertake useful analysis of financial

data and produce activity and output

reporting.

The Directorate General of Village

Government Guidance (Bina Pe-

merintahan Desa or Bina Pemdes),

MoHA, with the support of LSP and

KOMPAK, is currently revising the

regulation to incorporate strength-

ened VFM principles and elements.

Specifically, LSP provided analytical

support to inform the revision and

supported the drafting of the revised

Permendagri. It is envisioned that the

revised regulation will: (i) improve vil-

lage budget classifications and chart

of accounts for village finances which

will allow sectoral analysis of village

finances; (ii) require activity and out-

put reporting; (iii) strengthen procure-

ment processes, including adjusting

to the GoI’s 30 percent cash for work

requirement; (iv) require village bank

accounts to be updated and reported

to districts and MoHA; and (v) clarify

and strengthen rules for providing

information to communities and en-

suring participation related to village

finances, including the requirement

to disseminate financial and non-fi-

nancial realization, activity implemen-

tation status, and contact information

for complaints handling.

The revised Permendagri will help

contribute to the GoI’s ability to bet-

ter track, aggregate, report on, and

understand how villages spend and

manage their increased funds. It will

also help enable more meaningful

community and civil society participa-

tion in VFM.

Gondang Village becomes one of the first villages in Lombok Island in West Nusa

Tenggara to apply Siskeudes in all stages of village funds management: planning,

implementation and reporting. The village became one of the pioneers in applying

Siskeudes and had been visited by many other villages in West Nusa Tenggara that

wish to study the application.

maKing Dana Desa Fairer anD more Pro-Poor

In 2017, LSP’s Village Law PASA, together with KOMPAK, supported the Directorate

General of Fiscal Balance (DJPK) to revise and make the 2018 Dana Desa Allocation

Formula more pro-poor (see Box 12). Specifically, LSP provided analytical support

to DJPK, including simulations, to better understand the poverty impact of different

allocation formula scenarios. In December 2017, the new formula was approved and

issued (PMK No. 199/PMK.07/2017).

Given that there is a possibility that the Dana Desa formula allocation in 2019 will

be increased to Rp 120 trillion, strengthening capacities of government officials to

assess the impact of the formula on (i) poverty indicators, (ii) inequality indicators,

(iii) large and small villages, (iv) villages in Java and non-Java areas as well as (v)

villages by typology (Mandiri, Maju, Berkembang, Tertinggal and Sangat Tertinggal)

is critical.

Box 12.

Influencing Policy Change – revised 2018 Village Fund (Dana Desa) Allocation Formula

In 2017, LSP and KOMPAK supported DJPK to make the 2018 Dana Desa Al-

location Formula, and thus made four percent of the national budget more

pro-poor. Prior to 2018, the Dana Desa allocation formula disproportionately

favored villages with a small population as the formula was mainly allocated on

a “per village” rather than “per capita” basis. Ninety percent of Dana Desa was

distributed equally among villages and the remaining 10 percent was allocat-

ed based on population size, poverty rate, land area and geographic terrains.

While the “per village” allocation perceived to treat villages fairly, it did not treat

people living in the villages equally.

Over 2017, LSP provided extensive analytical support to DJPK, including run-

ning simulations, to better understand the poverty impact of different allocation

formula scenarios. LSP also facilitated various discussions with officials from

echelons I and II in MoF. The outcomes from these simulations and discussions

were used to inform DJPK’s allocation formula adjustments for 2018.

The new formula reduces the basic allocation from 90 percent to 77 percent;

includes a new three percent affirmation allocation for Disadvantaged and Very

Disadvantaged Villages that have a high poor population; and increases the

formula allocation portion from 10 percent to 20 percent, as well as adjusting

the weight of each variable to be more pro-poor. The Dana Desa Allocation

formula adjustment represents a positive step towards making the Dana Desa

more equitable as it better ensures that funds go to where the needs are great-

est. The formula will be reviewed annually to ensure continuous improvements

to the allocation of Dana Desa.

outcome 3: Village communities and government have improved capacity to manage increased finances

Under the Village Law, villages have ac-

cess to increased fiscal resources, and

more management and implementation

responsibilities. Yet village capacities,

to fulfil these expanded responsibilities,

remain limited. During 2017, LSP provid-

ed TA, and analytical and capacity sup-

port to inform and improve the GoI’s and

communities’ capabilities to manage the

increased resources.

encouraging nationaL croSS-agency KnoWLeDge exchangeS anD SyStemS Strengthening

In early 2017, LSP brought a 15-mem-

ber Indonesian delegation from MoHA,

MoF, MoV, BPKP, Bappenas and district

government representatives to West

Bengal and Tamil Nadu in India to share

experiences on strengthening village

governance and village poverty reduc-

tion using tools to enhance ownership

of local communities and downward ac-

countability to these communities. The

officials were subsequently invited to

a half-day post-Knowledge Exchange

workshop to gather inputs and lessons

learned, as well as to develop an action

plan from each ministry. As a result, nu-

merous lessons learned – from institu-

tional and community oversight to the

capacity building of village and LG offi-

cials, and the application of an inclusive

livelihoods model used in Tamil Nadu,

were discussed for possible piloting in

Indonesia. Some examples of GoI up-

take include:

• BPKP developed and is in the pro-

cess of rolling out a new module for

Siskeudes that tracks village outputs

(building on the West Bengal experi-

ence).

• TheWorldBanksupportedascoping

mission on village capacity building for financial management and conducted a

village audit in July 2017 by visiting Kutai Barat District. Learning from West Ben-

gal, the District Inspectorate of Kutai Barat developed Guidelines for Risk Man-

agement, which are already used by all district government units.

• BasedonlessonsfromWestBengal,BPKP and MoHA Inspectorate General (IG)

finalized VFM oversight guidelines, which will be used for local inspectorates in

conducting oversight to villages which include guideline for monitoring, review,

evaluation and audit of villages FM.

As mentioned in Chapter 6.1, Village Law PASA also supported BPKP to socialize and

rollout the enhanced Siskeudes application in 64,756 villages. It is envisioned that

the Siskeudes uptake will significantly improve villages’ ability to report on village

spending and outputs. It will also help higher-level government aggregation, analysis

and reporting.

Box 13.

sustainable InvestmentsTo ensure greater sustainability, LSP prioritizes supporting and leveraging ex-

isting GoI programs and investments. LSP, through its inherent design, focuses

on strengthening existing government systems, policies and institutions to im-

prove the development and poverty impact of the GoI’s large programs, such

as the Village Law (under the RPJMN 2015-2019), which aims to enhance village

development and basic service delivery. It does this through various approach-

es, including by providing analytical and technical support to inform govern-

ment policy decisions and regulations (revised Permendagri No. 113/2014,

Permendagri LKD and LAD, and the revised Dana Desa allocation formula),

facilitating policy dialogue, and supporting the implementation and scaling up

of pilots and activities nationally within GoI systems (including the integration of

Generasi with Village Law and the new INEY operation; and the potential scale-

ups of the KIAT Guru and ECED pilot projects).

LSP also focuses on building GoI and other partners’ skills and capacity to

ensure they have the required capabilities and human resources to continue

the work. For example, as part of the Generasi Integration Strategy, LSP con-

tinues to build the capacity of facilitators and local governments to help better

integrate health and education services into village budgets and Dana Desa

spending. Building on LSP’s ViPER analytical support, the Facility also initiated

work with MoHA to present the ViPER methodology to Local Governments to

improve their skills in village financial data management and analysis.

By supporting existing GoI priorities and enhancing the capacity of local coun-

terparts and partners to sustain them, it increases the likelihood of continued

uptake and enduring benefits after the trust fund closes, as government buy-in,

commitment, funding and resources are already in place.

As highlighted in Chapter 4.3, LSP supported LGs in Generasi and the ECED pilot

locations to use their fiscal resources more effectively. For example, as part of the

Generasi Integration Strategy pilot project in six NTB districts, Generasi provided

operational funds for capacity building and supported LGs to draft district policies

that enable APBDes to be utilized for health and education services. Generasi’s

support contributed to LGs issuing six district regulations. LSP data indicated that on

average village APBDes allocations for health and education spending increased in

the 411 villages in the six NTB Generasi Integration Strategy pilot districts.

As under EOFO 1 Intermediate Outcome 3, during 2017, LSP provided TA (in-

cluding providing technical support via joint field visits, workshops, and reviews

of draft regulation and systems), at the sub-national and national levels, across

multiple programs to help strengthen data-driven planning and budgeting at the

sub-national level. As highlighted in Chapter 6.1, Village Law PASA provided TA

to BPKP to support continuing improvements to the Siskeudes application, which

was rolled out in 64,756 villages. This support helped improve the GoI’s ability

to eventually aggregate VFM reports and better understand how villages spend

their money (see Chapter 6.1 for further details). Village Law PASA also facilitated

a coordination meeting between MoV, the State Administration Institution (Lem-

baga Administrasi Negara, or LAN) and the Ministry of Justice to develop joint

training modules for evidence-based legislative drafting and Regulatory Impact

Assessments (RIA). The training modules are still being developed. Training is

expected to be conducted in February 2018 and will be open to all ministries

involved in Village Law implementation.

In addition to the Village Law PASA,

Generasi continued to support district

and sub-district facilitation to help LGs

better monitor progress on key human

development and service delivery indi-

cators and track APBDes expenditures

on health and education in the Gener-

asi Management Information System

(MIS).33 As a result of Generasi’s efforts,

data monitoring was completed and

submitted in 411 out of a total sample

of 470 villages, with all data entered

into the MIS. As highlighted earlier, the

data showed on that average APBDes

allocations for health and education

spending in 411 villages in the six NTB

pilot districts increased (Chapter 4.3)

and that key access and utilization in-

dicators in Generasi villages across 11

provinces have improved (Chapter 5.2).

SuPPorting LocaL governmentS to imPLement Data-Driven PLanning anD BuDgeting

At the sub-national level, building on

the success of the World Bank’s previ-

ous Rapid Assessment and Action Plan

project, LSP launched the MELAYANI

project, which uses a problem-driven

approach to tackle local service de-

livery challenges. The pilot is helping

district governments to use existing data

to analyze and solve problems (related

to health, education, infrastructure, pub-

lic housing, security and social protec-

tion), and to regularly review and adjust

implemented solutions. As highlighted

earlier, in 2017, the World Bank-support-

ed coaches supported the three district

pilot governments (Bojonegoro, East

Java; Kubu Raya, West Kalimantan; and

Belu, East Nusa Tenggara) to select an

issue they would like to address, iden-

tify team members for the district prob-

lem-solving teams, and commence the

baseline data collection. In 2018, the

pilot district governments will focus on

analyzing the baseline data to under-

stand the local problem(s) and to sup-

port change processes (as guided by

the World Bank-supported coaches). The

pilot project’s impact will be assessed in

October 2018 and the results reported in

the next progress report. 33 The Generasi MIS includes village-level data, which is collected by facilitators, validated at the provincial level and shared to the national level.

gender and social Inclusion 07Opening up opportunities for women is one of the most important engines of poverty reduction.In the case of Indonesia, while the country has made significant progress in recent

years, the potential for women to become substantial drivers of poverty reduction

is yet to be fully realized. Although Indonesia has seen major improvements in

girls’ access to, and participation in, education, and an increase in the number

of employment opportunities over the past few decades, women still lag behind

men in labor force participation. Global experience shows that increasing women’s

participation in the labor force has a direct positive impact on economic growth.

In addition, improving women’s outcomes more generally in health, education and

employment help to reduce the inter-generational transmission of poverty in society

and improve future outcomes for children, ranging from better anthropometric (i.e.,

height and weight measurements) indicators to more schooling and thereby better

labor market outcomes.

During 2017, LSP promoted and supported the GoI to promote gender equality and

social inclusion:

1. maximizing women’s labor force participation and access to economic opportunities: LSP supported National Civil Servant Organization (Badan

Kepegawaian Negara, or BKN) to analyze the records of over four million civil

servants to better understand the composition of the Indonesian civil service

and the determinants of civil service promotion. From the analysis, LSP found

that female civil servants make up fewer than 28 percent of all echelon in

national ministries, and experience substantially lower rates of promotion than

men. The analysis is being used to inform the GoI’s major policy agendas related

to merit-based and transparent promotions and more equitable distribution of

civil servants. The World Bank governance team is also leveraging the results

about gender disparities in civil service promotion to inform and better integrate

gender into the proposed Human Resource Development for Bureaucratic

Reform Operation. LSP, under the ECED pilot project, supported professional

ECED teacher training for 15,491 village teachers of which about 98 to 99 percent

were women. By designing the system to provide training at the sub-district

level, many more women with family responsibilities could join the training

program and improve their ECED skills. This helped enhance the status of these

women as ECED teachers in village communities. The training also provided the

mainly female participants with the means to earn a modest income from their

teaching activities as many villages are increasingly allocating budgets to pay

village ECED teachers (and posyandu cadres) an honorarium in line with village

regulations and the MoV Regulation on the Priority Use of Village Funds in 2018

(No. 19/2017).34

34 MoV regulation on Penetapan Prioritas Peng-gunaan Dana Desa Tahun 2018 (Nomor 19/2017) states that Dana Desa can be used to provide in-centive assistance for ECED teachers.

2. improving the quality of national spending by promoting gender equality and women’s empowerment. In May 2017, LSP, in response to a request

from the GoI, prepared a policy brief for MoF on Closing the Gender Gap:

Translating the Budget into Improved Gender Outcomes. Leveraging findings

from previous LSP and World Bank-supported analysis (such as the BKN

civil service analysis), the policy brief outlined key statistics on gender

inequalities; proposed potential activities that MoF could finance to increase

female labor force employment and improve women’s health and nutrition

in 2018; and proposed a MoF-led program “Using the Budget to Improve

Gender Outcomes”. MoF incorporated key elements from the World Bank’s

policy brief into the GoI’s Macroeconomic Fiscal Framework, including a

commitment to increasingly strive to implement gender budgeting programs

so that women face less barriers to economic opportunities and improved

access to health care programs.35 The GoI will use the framework to inform

its 2018 national budget planning so it better supports gender equality and

women’s empowerment.

3. improving nutritional care for mothers and infants: Continuing its work from

the previous year, in 2017 Generasi focused on reducing malnutrition among

mothers and infants by providing community block grants and facilitators trained

in health issues. These community block grants were tied to each community’s

achievements in improving maternal health and infant nutrition indicators

(e.g. through monthly infant weighing sessions, the distribution of vitamin

supplements and participation in nutrition classes. As Generasi approaches

completion at the end of 2018, the project’s experience in engaging mothers

and infants to utilize the posyandus will be leveraged. Its lessons learned will

continue to influence the upcoming INEY operation, which supports the GoI’s

new National Action Plan to address stunting.

4. Support in reducing risks of maternal mortality: LSP continued to support

Generasi, which aims to meet the health and education needs of women and

children. Generasi supported the GoI to address low rates of service utilization

among expectant and new mothers, and poor quality maternal and infant health

services by providing conditional grants directly to community members and

facilitators trained in health and nutritional issues.36 In 2017, LSP monitoring

data indicated that Generasi contributed to improvements in pregnant

women’s access to prenatal care visits and facility or trained professionals

during births (see Chapter 5.2).37 The Generasi L/T IE, which is a unique nine-

year, randomized control trial involving over 90,000 respondents, found that

Generasi has continued to mobilize women to attend the posyandus for infant-

weighing sessions and pre-natal and maternal classes. In the poorest areas,

Generasi showed a positive impact on Vitamin A and immunization uptake.

5. understanding constraints to women participating in village-level decision-making: LSP published the baseline report from the Sentinel Villages Study in

2017, providing the GoI with findings about women and marginalized groups’

GENDER & SOCIAL INCLUSION

Box 14.

lsP’s gender equality and social Inclusion strategy and Approach

LSP’s strategy for gender equality is

underpinned by the World Bank’s In-

donesia Country Gender Action Plan

(CGAP) which supports the GoI to

address high maternal mortality rate;

low female labor force participation

and high gender wage gap; low lev-

els of women’s participation in public

decision-making processes; and legal

restrictions that discriminate against

women.

To operationalize the CGAP strate-

gy, LSP, like the GoA, adopts a twin-

track approach, which supports: (1)

projects that directly address gender

inequalities; and (2) projects that in-

tegrate gender across all activities.

In terms of gender specific programs,

the LSP Generasi supported the GoI

to address and improve low rates of

service utilization among pregnant

women and new mothers in Genera-

si’s target areas. LSP also integrated

gender and social inclusion across all

its programs and activities by:

•Undertaking gender specific

analyses, such as the Sentinel Vil-

lage Study and BKN Civil Service

Analysis;

•Ensuring strengthened gender

equality and more inclusive ele-

ments are incorporated into gov-

ernment and other development

partners’ activities and regulations,

including Permendagri LKD and

LAD;

•Ensuringadequaterepresentationof

women in training, such as Gener-

asi Facilitator Refresher Training and

teacher training in the ECED pilot

project where 98 percent of partic-

ipants were women.

LSP’s more detailed contributions to

gender equality and social inclusion

are outlined in Chapter 7.

participation in village-level decision-making.38 The study revealed that women

are less likely to attend village- and hamlet-level meetings than men. The study

also found that both male and female village activists frequent and are engaged

in discussions in MusDes and MusDus. The findings also found that female

village activists were almost as engaged as their male counterparts during

meetings, indicating that they could potentially help air the voices of their fellow

female villagers.

6. recognizing children with special needs: As part of the ECED pilot project, the

training materials, which were used to train over 15,000 ECED teachers, included

materials on inclusion of children with special needs. The module highlighted

the importance on recognizing children with special needs as early as possible,

as well as provided guidance on how to adjust the learning environment and to

seek support through referral systems.

7. Supporting the recognition of traditional customary institutions and more inclusive governance structures: LSP supported the DG Village Government

Oversight in MoHA, through facilitating various discussions and providing

policy and legal advice, to draft Permendagri LKD and LAD. The Permendagri

formally recognizes community and customary institutions and thus more

diverse and inclusive village governance arrangements. Through LSP’s support,

Permendagri on LKD and LAD also includes the strengthening of participation,

gender equality and transparency, which helps ensure that customary institutions

and governance structures better reflect the needs of communities.

Key challenges and lessons learned

8.1.1 FragmenteD coorDination anD varieD LeveLS oF commitment among counterPartS

Coordination among LSP counterparts remained a key challenge in 2017. The

success of LSP and its programs relies on a high level of coordination and buy-

in across multiple actors and levels, including a range of GoI stakeholders at the

national and local levels, development partners and community actors. At the

national level, fragmented coordination and uneven levels of commitment limited

LSP’s progress in some activities. Policy inconsistences and delays in issuing

regulations; varying mandates, priorities and expectations; and a lack of clarity over

roles and responsibilities created program planning and implementation delays on

the ground. For example, improving sub-national government capacity to implement

the Village Law more effectively requires a high degree of coordination and buy-in

among multiple ministries. At the program level, coordination between the provincial

and district levels was also a challenge. For example, in some Generasi locations the

lack of a strong coordination mechanism resulted in siloed intervention approaches

for planning, implementation, and monitoring and information management

processes, which constrained the delivery and effectiveness of the program.

During 2017, LSP prioritized promoting greater coordination at both the Facility

and program levels. During the reporting period, LSP established a new Steering

Committee with strong leadership from four Director Generals (DG) in Bappenas (DG

Population and Employment, DG Human Development, DG Developing Financing,

and DG Regional Development and Autonomy) and technical working groups

with key GoI stakeholders. These new streamlined governance arrangements are

expected to improve coordination, especially at the national level. The World Bank

is also trying to improve horizontal coordination across government ministries at

the national level on national development priorities, such as stunting and early

childhood education. For example, the new Program for Results (PforR) for INEY

Operation will help the GoI implement its National Action Plan to address stunting,

bringing together multiple government agencies at every level to deliver multiple

sector inventions to reduce stunting. The PforR will also support a national

coordination platform that LSP can utilize to further increase the effectiveness of

its service delivery portfolio. The VIP, by utilizing LSP as a coordinating mechanism,

was also successful in facilitating greater interaction between MoV and Bappenas on Village Law Implementation.

Key Challenges, lessons learned & risks

8.1.2 Partner in human reSourcing anD caPacity BuiLDing

Given that LSP works with multiple stakeholders and partners to implement its pro-

grams, the capacity and resources of those partners affect the effectiveness of LSP

activities. In 2017, delays in appointing key civil servant appointments, and limited

capacity and resources of local partners to implement or scale up LSP-supported

activities or recommended actions created delays and challenges. Furthermore,

while the success of LSP-supported activities and pilot projects generated increas-

ing demand from communities and local partners to expand them, it also created

additional strains on existing local resources, creating bottlenecks in scaling up

and expanding quality programs. One example of this was seen in the ECED pilot

project, where demand for training outstripped MoEC’s ability to train and deploy

sub-district ECED teacher trainers.

In 2017, LSP focused on building capacity of its counterparts and partners to enable

them to sustain LSP-supported activities, financing and structures beyond the life of

the programs. For example, LSP dedicated surge capacity for VIP implementation

and to support the Bappenas stunting boot camps. Where possible, LSP leverages

local partner resources to support and maximize capacity building activities. KIAT

Guru provided capacity building for national and district government officials, as well

as community members and village cadres, so that by the end of the pilot program,

these stakeholders have improved capacity to sustain the activities independently.

In addition, KIAT Guru received funding from the Research in Improving Systems in

Education (RISE) and leveraged SMERU capacity to deliver the endline survey.

risksAs part of LSP’s monitoring, the Facility

regularly tracks risks for all activities

and programs, and provide semi-an-

nual updates to DFAT. In 2017, 111 risks

were recorded in LSP’s Activity Tracker

Tool. Of those risks, 27 percent were

medium risk, 73 percent low, and none

were high. The main risks recorded

include:

• Coordinationamongcounterparts

and development partners/programs

(29 percent);

• Humanresourcingandcapacityof

GoI counterparts and partners (14

percent);

• Alignmentwithgovernmentpriorities

(7 percent); and

• Others,suchasunexpectedbudget

constraints, quality of data and pro-

curement issues (50 percent).

mitigation Strategy

alignment with government priorities: Government

priorities continue to change

overtime. If LSP does not re-

main responsive and evolve

in line with the GoI and the

GoA priorities there is a risk

that the Facility will not be

relevant.

Rare Medium/High LSP activities are aligned with RPJMN 2015–2019. To

maintain relevance and alignment with government

priorities, LSP continues to actively engage with the GoI

and the GoA, the major donor to the MDTF, through var-

ious mechanisms, including the LSP Steering Committee

and Technical Working Groups (see Box 1 Relevance for

further details). Given the upcoming elections, and the

heightened risks associated with changing government

priorities, LSP has programmed almost all of its uncom-

mitted resources in 2017 and accelerated preparation

for its new major initiatives, including INEY, while engag-

ing key stakeholders at the highest levels of govern-

ment to lock in implementation modalities and securing

key decisions affecting the portfolio.

coordination among counterparts and develop-ment partners/programs:

Coordination issues amongst

the LSP Facility counterparts

could potentially prevent LSP

Facility from capitalizing on

counterparts’ synergies and

collaboration.

Possible Medium Coordination remains a key challenge and risk for LSP.

To manage this risk, LSP prioritizes promoting greater

coordination at both the Facility and program level (see

Chapter 8.1.1 for more detailed management responses).

human resourcing and capacity: Human resourcing

and capacity of partners in

GoI and elsewhere can affect

the effectiveness of LSP.

Possible Medium As highlighted above, the capacity of Facility partners is

one of LSP’s main concerns. LSP is facilitating capacity

building of counterparts with training, missions, seminars

and knowledge transfers from the experts (see Chapter

8.1.2 for further details).

48FUTURE DIRECTIONS

09Going forward, LSP will focus on promoting greater sustainability of the policy framework, institutions and systems that guide village development and basic service delivery so that these programs continue to bear fruit long after LSP’s projects have ended.

With LSP’s MDTF expected to close in June 2020, the Facility is ramping up efforts

to help sustain LSP-supported GoI activities, financing and structures beyond June

2020, including through building the capacity of GoI counterparts and partners, and

communicating and institutionalizing LSP lessons learned and good practices in GoI

systems and programs (see Annex 3 for an update on LSP’s 2017 planned vs. actual

activities).

In 2018, key LSP priorities include:

● improving the effectiveness of village Law for village development and pov-erty reduction. LSP will focus on:

⊲ Continuing to shift the allocation of Dana Desa to poor villages that need it the

most;39

⊲ Driving village spending toward more pro-poor, productive investments and

services; and strengthening participation, inclusion and transparency across

the village development cycle;

⊲ Piloting a “public, private and people partnership” (P4) model of local econom-

ic development (LED) that empowers village farm and non-farm entrepreneurs

to aggregate and form productive alliances, using Dana Desa for productive

investments and empowering female entrepreneurs;

⊲ Accelerating reforms to enable reliable reporting on village spending and out-

puts;

⊲ Mobilizing districts to play a greater role in village capacity building and over-

sight;

⊲ Supporting coordination and key agencies responsible for implementing the

Village Law;

⊲ Prioritizing, testing and scaling up innovation reforms, through the VIP, to iden-

tify and generate solutions to local development and service delivery chal-

lenges;

⊲ Developing a platform to manage innovation capture and building systematic

organizational knowledge sharing to ensure greater sustainability and uptake

of approaches that optimize village spending; and

⊲ Testing alternative models and sources for facilitation to help deliver more

sustainable and demand-driven facilitation support to villages.

Future Directions

39 Given that the Dana Desa Allocation is reviewed annually and the Dana Desa allocation is expected to increase, LSP will continue to work with the GoI and advocate for continuous formula refinements that improve the pro-poor impact of Dana Desa. In 2018, LSP will continue to strengthen GoI’s capac-ity to assess the impact of the formula on poverty, inequality, and different types of villages (small, large, Java and non-Java villages).

49

● improving basic service delivery performance for better human development outcomes. LSP will focus on:

⊲ Informing potential KIAT Guru scale-ups through provid-

ing evidence-based policy recommendations (from KIAT

Guru’s IE) to MoEC about performance-based incen-

tives and mechanisms to improve teacher service per-

formance, and to MoV about community participation in

monitoring basic service delivery;

⊲ Completing the ongoing ECED evaluation and using the

results to inform GoI, including LGs outside of the pilot

areas, about opportunities and methodologies to in-

crease the availability of more qualified early childhood

education teachers;

⊲ Integrating health and education spending into village

budgets to improve villages’ use of Dana Desa for

health and education services in Generasi locations,

and working with MoV to disseminate and apply lessons

from the Generasi-Village Law integration beyond Gen-

erasi locations;

⊲ Providing operational, coordination, policy and techni-

cal support to help the GoI implement its National Action

Plan to reduce stunting;

⊲ Supporting, in line with the National Action Plan, the

rollout and implementation of the HDW pilot project in

3,105 villages across 31 stunting priority districts to help

promote, incentivize and converge multi-sectoral village

efforts to reduce stunting; and

⊲ Preparing the new GoI requested INEY Operation to

support the Presidential Action Plan to reduce stunting.

● Producing high quality analytical work to inform goi policy, particularly with regards to village develop-ment, poverty reduction, basic service delivery and gender equality. LSP will focus on:

⊲ Leveraging information from the ongoing Sentinel

Villages Study to inform policy and regulations to en-

hance the impact of Village Law implementation;

⊲ Providing capacity to MoV for village data management

and analysis and infrastructure data collection;

⊲ Preparing a baseline line survey for the LED pilot

project and complementary qualitative assessments

focused on the pilot project’s three core design ele-

ments: the public, private and people partnerships, the

village partnership investments, and the inclusion of

women and market groups;

⊲ Disseminating the results of the Generasi IE to policy

makers and development practitioners to inform ser-

vice delivery interventions, particularly in the health

and education sectors;

⊲ Implementing the KIAT Guru IE and ECED process

evaluation to generate evidence on the impact of

community monitoring, performance-based incentives

and villages’ involvement in service provision on ser-

vice delivery outcomes in Indonesia to inform poten-

tial scale-up projects and other operations across the

country;

⊲ Providing analysis of BKN data to the GoI to inform civil

servant reforms related to merit-based and transparent

promotions across Indonesia; and

⊲ Working with Bappenas to conduct a study to analyze

factors that contribute to an enabling environment

for sustainable livelihoods (including roles/concepts

of “keperantaraan” (partnership/linkages with mar-

ket and technical experts) to inform inputs for RPJMN

2020-2024.
