Background
The Asia Foundation is awarded a contract by USAID to implement ERAT (Tata Kelola PemERintahan yang Efektif, Efisien, dan KuAT or Effective, Efficient and Strong Government) in January 2022. The program supports the Government of Indonesia, coordinated by the Center of Cooperation Facilitation of the Ministry of Home Affairs. It is implemented in the following four years in six provinces in Indonesia: North Sumatra, Banten, East Java, West Kalimantan, South Sulawesi, and East Nusa Tenggara, covering five districts in each province. The goal of ERAT is for the citizens of Indonesia to benefit from effective local government by increasing the quality of policy implementation and service delivery at the subnational level. The goal will be achieved through three interrelated intermediate results (IRs): (1) coherence between national and subnational policies strengthened; (2) performance of local service delivery enhanced; and (3) local budget allocation and execution improved.
USAID ERAT supports the Government of Indonesia to improve monitoring and evaluation (M&E) systems at the national and provincial levels to improve performance-based (non-fiscal and fiscal) incentive systems. Improved M&E system will also allow improvement of analysis of data and information to formulate better policies and programs to support subnational governments to provide public service delivery. The program promotes peer learning among subnational governments to improve the quality of governance and public service delivery. ERAT emphasizes collaborative governance in improving public service delivery – among different levels of government, among various sectors, and among various stakeholders, including the private sector and civil society organizations (CSOs). To allow broader participation of the communities, CSOs, and the private sector, ERAT supports improvement of access to information and various channels of public participation, including complaint handling mechanisms. Private sector engagement in public service provision that is based on mutual benefits is emphasized in the program. ERAT supports improvement of subnational budget allocation and execution to improve the quality of spending to improve access to and quality of public service delivery. The program promotes gender equality and social inclusion mainstreaming in local policies, programs, and budgets, as well as in the program implementation.
