Goal: To enhance the capacity of political, social and economic actors in order to establish an effective governance framework that improves institutional checks and balances relevant to legislative capacity, policy-making, civil society representation and elections.
Achieving the correct balance between state, market and civil society actors will require the institutionalization of standardized procedures which ensure consultation of all stakeholders. Between 2007-2011 the Partnership will advance its current momentum for supporting the reform agenda in democratic governance, through a number of impact oriented programs and activities. These initiatives will be developed and managed by the specialized Democratic Governance (DEG) cluster. The aim will be to strengthen the capacity of stakeholders and processes to instill democratic principles at all levels. Concurrently it will continue to develop aspects of political, economic and social development which affect Indonesian Democracy.
Efforts to consolidate and revitalize Indonesia’s democratic politics, processes and institutions will be focused on six priority areas:
- Civic Engagement in public policy making;
- Citizens empowerment in democratic politics;
- Institutional transformation of national and regional legislature;
- Integrity and governance of election systems;
- Democratic Governance of political parties;
