In September 2015, at the UN Summit, the General Assembly adopted the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. Working with wide networks of experts and partners, committed, and signed by 193 government, this new global agenda of “a plan of action for people, planet, and prosperity” reflected on 17 global Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) with 169 targets, aim to achieve the goals by 2030 with a pledge of “No One Left Behind”. Compared to its predecessor, the 2030 Agenda focuses on three dimensions of sustainability, not only on economic development, social development, but also environmental protection. The success of SDGs attainment depends on the extent to which the government, private sectors, and non-private sectors collaborates to formulate and implement regulation, efforts, and coherent evidence-based plans at country level also global level.

UNDP aims to eradicate poverty, to build nations that can withstand crisis, drive, and sustain the kind of growth that improves the quality of life for everyone. UNDP’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 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.

The Sustainable Development Goals in Indonesia

The Government of Indonesia (GoI) endorsed SDGs Presidential Decree (Perpres) Number 59 of 2017 on the Implementation of the Achievement the Sustainable Development Goals. The Perpres is also a commitment to the implementation and achievement of the SDGs in a participatory manner by involving all parties. Furthermore, the goals and targets of the SDGs has aligned with that of the goals and targets stated on RPJMN 2020 – 2024 translated into programs, activities, and measurement indicators. The RPJMN acts as a main reference in the formulation of development documents in the national level such as Strategic Planning (Renstra) of Indonesia Ministries of 2020 – 2024, Annual Work Plan (RKP), and Medium-Term Regional Development Plan (RPJMD) also Regional Work Plan (RKPD) in the provincial level. The SDGs Agenda is pursued at national and sub-national level, undoubtedly requires a synergy of planning and formulation of all stakeholders from national to subnational levels.

To accelerate SDGs attainment in Indonesia, UNDP supports GoI at national and subnational level. At national level, UNDP supports Ministry of National Development Planning (BAPPENAS) and Ministry of Villages, Development of Disadvantaged Regions and Transmigration (Kemendesa PDTT), among others, to accelerate SDG attainment in Indonesia. UNDP liaises closely with National SDGs Secretariat; Development Planning Agencies and Village Empowerment Agencies; central and local government ministries, agencies and bodies; parliament; private sector; philanthropy; academics; experts; civil society organizations; NGOs; media and youth. UNDP also liaises closely with international organizations, such as ADB; World Bank; UCLG Asia Pacific; UNDP Regional Hubs and other UN agencies.

SDGs Localization in Indonesia – national and subnational level with BAPPENAS

UNDP supports BAPPENAS, National SDGs Secretariat and Subnational Development Planning Agencies to advance SDGs progress in Indonesia. The supports focus on integrating SDGs agenda into national and subnational development agenda (RPJMN/D), preparing SDGs Roadmap and SDGs Action Plans, policy formulation, spearheading innovative solutions through Action for SDGs (e.g., BASADA, emPOWERed Farmers), monitoring and reporting (such as Voluntary National Review/VNR) and promoting knowledge sharing and capacity building (such as supporting the National SDG Annual Conference, SDGs Debate for Youth and SDG Academy Indonesia). UNDP also piloted the subnational SDGs Localization in Gorontalo, Lampung and Riau province – with potential expansion of the program to other provinces.

 

SDGs Localization in Indonesia – village level with Kemendesa PDTT

UNDP Indonesia supports Kemendesa PDTT in adopting the 2030 Agenda into more than 70,000 villages across Indonesia. The assistance focuses in the following four (4) main areas of cooperation:

  1. Social Innovation Platform
  2. Digital Village Program
  3. Mainstreaming SDGs agenda into villages’ metrics and indices
  4. Advocacy and Promotion of SDGs

Supported by Bangkok Regional Hub (BRH) and Agirre Lehendakaria Center (ALC) in Spain, UNDP and Kemendesa PDTT pilot the Social Innovation Platform (SIP) approach in two locations: Gorontalo and West Java province. SIP aims to assess socio-economic impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and identify potential innovative solutions to build forward better from the pandemic whilst accelerating SDGs attainment in the regions. The pilot implementation runs from 2020 to 2021, with potential replication and/or scaling-ups to more villages/provinces.

UNDP also support Kemendesa PDTT to use technology to strengthen village programs through Digital Village Program. At the initiation phase, UNDP helps Kemendesa PDTT enhance its Padat Karya Tunai Desa (PKTD) program through Cash-for-Work (CfW) implementation at two pilots locations in West Nusa Tenggara and Central Sulawesi province. It aims to cushion the socio-economic shocks of the pandemic in vulnerable rural communities. Following CfW, UNDP will explore potentials to upgrade Kemendesa PDTT’s current system to better respond to the needs of digitalization in the 4.0 era.

In addition to piloting initiatives, UNDP will also assist Kemendesa PDTT in mainstreaming the 2030 Agenda into villages’ measurement and indices, which include but not limited to Indeks Desa Membangun (IDM) and Indeks Pengembangan Kawasan Perdesaan (IPKP).
