Background
The Power Up-Participation via Technology is a three year (2017-2019), $3
million project funded by Global Affairs Canada and will be implemented in

marginalized groups to increase their engagement in democratic decision

and understand information, demand improved government accountability, and
access improved services.
The initiative will make extensive use of technology platforms based on
mobile communication and websites to strengthen active citizen

district and village levels, including but not limited to the 2014 Law on
Village Development (law 6), which obliges village level government to
facilitate effective participation of citizens in budgeting and planning
especially for health needs of women.
The project will also work closely with the district and sub-district
health offices under the Ministry to Health for better transparency and
accountability is ensured at the village level to address the maternal
health needs of the women using technology. Oxfam’s partner in developing
the project’s innovative technology applications and platforms will be
VOTO Mobile. VOTO Mobile is a Canadian technology company with years of
experience in developing applications to increase public participation in
democratic processes in collaboration with local Indonesian mobile network
operators (MNOs).
