Title : Communication Intern for Open Contracting Program
Office Location : Jakarta,
Indonesia
Periode : 3 (three) months – October to December 2019
Background
Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) Deputy Commissioner,
Alexander Marwata, said that 80 percent of corruption cases they handled were
related to public procurement. Indonesia Corruption Watch (ICW) also revealed
that Indonesia lost around Rp1.5 trillion to corruption in public procurement
in 2017. This
is wasted taxpayer money.
To
address the issues, Hivos and partners such as Indonesia Corruption Watch
(ICW), Publish What You Pay (PWYP) Indonesia, Transparency International (TI)
Indonesia, PATTIRO Semarang, Bojonegoro Institute, and Alliance of Independent
Journalist (AJI) Jakarta have been implementing an open contracting program in
Indonesia. The project is a part of a
broader program of Open Up Public
Contracting between Hivos and Article 19 at the global level.
Through this program, we work to empower the citizens to get the
best quality of public services (health and education) through their engagement
in development, especially in public procurement process, and participate in
monitoring the government’s procurement projects. We also develop civil society
capacity to translate procurement and contracting data into actionable
information for evidence-based advocacy with governments.
Hivos understands we need to deliver clear messages and call for
action to the public to get people to support our works and advocacy. To help
reach that purpose, therefore, we are opening an internship program for
individuals who are interested on anti-corruption issues and have willingness
to contribute for a better and more inclusive public service delivery through
campaign and content development.
Roles

part of the Freedom and Accountability team, and learn on how communication
