YAYASAN
PLAN INTERNATIONAL INDONESIA IS SEEKING CONSULTANT TO CONDUCT
GENDER
EQUALITY AND SOCIAL INCLUSION (GESI) ASSESSMENT FOR
WOMEN
AND DISABILITY INCLUSIVE WASH AND NUTRITION (WINNER) PROJECT CONTEXT
Indonesia
has the second highest number of citizens defecating in the open, with 54
million people lacking improved sanitation.
This issue is particularly acute in rural areas where only 46% of the
population have improved sanitation facilities (compared to 71% in urban areas)[1]. Inequity in access to
sanitation is also significant with Indonesia among 35 countries that have
experienced decreased sanitation equality across wealth quintiles over two
decades[2]. The Government of
Indonesia (GoI) is committed to Universal Sanitation Access by 2019 for the
whole country and achieving this goal will cost US$21.6 million[3].
Despite Indonesia’s
strong economic growth, inequality is on the rise. Gini coefficient has
steadily worsened in the last 7 years. In 2015 alone, more than 60.000
Indonesian children died from poor sanitation related diseases. While stunting,
another poor sanitation related condition, afflicted 37% of urban children
under 5, limiting their physical and intellectual development for life.
One
critical pathway the GoI has been trying as a means to improve WASH (and sanitation
and hygiene in particular), throughout the country is through its National
Sanitation Policy –entitled Community Based Total Sanitation (Sanitasi Total Berbasis Masyarakat).
This is known as the STBM policy based on the Minister of Health Decree No. 3/2014.
STBM has a five-pillar as the approach to mobilise communities for total
sanitation and hygiene. A community achieved total sanitation if the following
are fulfilled: open defecation free (ODF) status (pillar 1); hand washing with
soap (pillar 2); household drinking water management (pillar 3); household
solid waste management (pillar 4); and household liquid waste management
(pillar 5).
