Historique

UNDP Indonesia's mission is to be an agent for change in the human and social development of Indonesia. We aim to be a bridge between Indonesia and all donors as well as a trusted partner to all stakeholders. We work in four key areas of development: Governance Reforms, Pro-Poor Policy Reforms, Conflict Prevention and Recovery, and Environment Management, with the overarching aim of reducing poverty in Indonesia. Besides the four priority areas, UNDP Indonesia is also engaged in a variety of crosscutting initiatives focused on HIV/AIDS, gender equality, and information and technology for development.
 
I. Background
The project “Making Aceh Safer Through Disaster Risk Reduction in Development” (DRR-A) is a joint Government of Indonesia – UNDP project, prepared to support Aceh’s Provincial & District governments in their efforts of reducing disaster risk in the area. DRR – A is designed to make disaster risk reduction a normal part of the local level development process, established in core functions of Aceh’s local government and their public and private partners especially in Aceh’s local communities where the most effective and direct actions can be taken to reduce physical, economic, and social vulnerability to disasters.
 
The project is aimed to produce four key outputs:
  • Output 1: Institutional arrangement and enabling environment established to facilitate participatory and concerted implementation of DRR measures
  • Output 2: Demonstration of gender sensitive projects implemented in selected locations to test and improve measures for reducing risk from natural disasters
  • Output 3: TDMRC-UNSYIAH strengthened to provide science-based information, service and knowledge assistance to the local government and other DRR proponents in implementing their DRR activities.
  • Output 4: DRR public awareness programmes implemented to promote a gender sensitive “Culture of Safety” among the people and institutions of Aceh

The MOHA has delegated some of the implementation authorities and responsibilities to the Governor/Vice Governor of Aceh who will appoint a Provincial Project Director (PPD). The PPD will be supported by Project Management Unit (PMU) lead by a National Project Manager (NPM).
In implementing the project intended outputs, the NPM is supported by National Project Coordinators (NPCs). The Project Associate, reporting directly to the National Project Coordinator (NPC) for output 1 and 2, will provide assistance to prepare detailed work plans comprising of project activities and process required resources, provision of financial and substantial reporting, and monitoring project activities to achieve output 1 and 2 of the project.
