The USAID Jalin Project (hereafter referred to
as “Jalin” or the “Project”) is a five-year initiative implemented by DAI
Global, LLC and its consortium of partners – IntraHealth, Vital Strategies, and
Market Share Associates. Through Jalin,
USAID’s role as a development partner in Indonesia is shifting from funding the
implementation of specific interventions to facilitating and supporting
partnerships through a co-creation process across a variety of stakeholders to
catalyze local solutions, leverage public and private financing, and increase
the pace at which reliable local evidence is made widely available and
utilized. During year one of the activity, Jalin works in six provinces of
Indonesia: Banten, West Java, Central Java, East Java, North Sumatra, and South
Sulawesi. Jalin will partner with multistakeholder actors to co-create and co-invest in sustainable
evidence-based solutions aimed at reducing maternal and newborn mortality.
The Investment Specialist supports Jalin’s
efforts to engage, network and negotiate partnerships with a variety of
stakeholders comprising a whole-of-market approach, which includes commercial
enterprises, banks, private equity, angel investors, and investment firms,
state-owned companies, and other GOI sources of funding, to actively co-create
and co-invest in scalable local solutions for reduced maternal and neonatal
mortality in Indonesia. Success of these
efforts is to be measured by such indicators as: (a) total amount of funding
leveraged from GOI sources; (b) total amount of financing, whether quantifiable
or in-kind support, leveraged from private sector sources; (c) total amount of
domestic resources mobilized; and (d) percentage of local solutions that are
partially or wholly funded/financed by non-U.S. Government funds.
