PROREP THIRD ANNUAL REPORT

INTRODUCTION AND SUMMARY
The period covered by this report (October 1, 2012 – September 30, 2013) has been ProRep’s most productive year yet, with a tremendous increase in project activities and participants in ProRep programs, and growing project impact. The numbers of activities of ProRep and its grantees climbed from 88 in year two, to 358 in year three (307 percent). Similarly, the numbers of participants in activities grew from 2,951 in year two, to 18,337 in year three (521 percent). Each ProRep component area is working effectively. The Project helped build CSO partner’s skills in areas such as advocacy, working with the media, and effecting social change. CSO grantees interacted effectively with DPR Members and staff, local governments and scores of school districts, improving the lives of Indonesians – especially women – in areas such as health, education, and food for the poor. ProRep policy-research partners advanced toward completing their long-term research projects, sharing their findings with policy-makers in the Government and the DPR, and even internationally. ProRep supported policy-research partners to establish the Indonesian Policy Research Network (PRN), and ProRep researchers worked closely with DPR researchers and legislative drafters on key pieces of legislation – the MD3 Law, Law on Human Rights, and Law on Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR). The project conducted trainings for Parliament staff, on legislative drafting, legislative research, developing fiscal impact notes on legislation, and evaluating the reports of Indonesia’s Supreme Audit Agency (BPK), and DPR and DPD staff have shared how their work is changing as they apply these new skills. ProRep has had a major impact on the development of the BAKN, Indonesia’s new public accounts committee – helping it conduct more effective oversight, to link it to Indonesia’s community of accountability – both CSOs and government institutions, and to ensure that its resources and authority expand under the new MD3 Law. ProRep’s JABAT program, funded through the Component 4 Special Activities Fund (SAF), has helped change the way MPs from each political party view their constituencies and conduct their recess visits. With assistance from ProRep and our Constituent Relations Liaisons, DPR members have met with more than 10,000 constituents they would not have met otherwise, changing their paradigm for member-constituent interactions. JABAT grants to CSOs are reinforcing and deepening these changes, and ProRep is producing a video and booklets on member-constituent relations to distribute to other DPR members and CSOs to multiply JABAT’s sustained impact. SAF funds were also used to support other special initiatives, such as a 2012 US Campaign visit for young Indonesian political leaders, and South-South Triangular cooperation through the 2013 “Support to the International Workshop on Democracy: Sharing Experience between Indonesia and Arab Countries.” USAID’s vision for the ProRep project is being realized; that by bringing together under one project support for three distinct component areas – CSOs, think tanks, and parliaments – the sum would be greater than the whole. Each of the three areas are strengthened, and their interactions will have a positive impact on representation, policy-implementation, and policy change in Indonesia. Trust and relationships built within each of ProRep’s component areas are facilitating the building of trust and relationships across the component areas. Through ProRep programs, experts from think tanks and CSOs sit at the same table with policy-makers from the DPR, DPRDs, and the different levels of government, and their ideas are being heard. Project partners, in meetings with BALEG, the BAKN, and at the local level, are beginning to influence policies and the way they are implemented.
1
PROREP THIRD ANNUAL REPORT
Looking ahead, the methods and relationships developed over the first 2 ½ years of the ProRep Project can be a valuable resource as USAID begins to implement its new strategy of strengthening democratic governance, improving delivery of essential human services to the poorest and most vulnerable, and building South-South triangular cooperation.
II. BACKGROUND AND HIGHLIGHTS This Annual Report describes Program Representasi’s (ProRep’s) activities over the period October 1, 2012 to September 30, 2013. Program Representasi is a three to five year project managed under contract by Chemonics International and is designed to increase the effectiveness of representative groups and institutions in Indonesia in order to strengthen democracy and good governance in the country. ProRep focuses on strengthening the representational aspects of three specific sectors, and funds and implements related special initiatives.
1. CSOs, particularly those non-profit, non-governmental organizations (NGOs) that are membership- or constituency-based, national in purpose, representative of marginalized groups (including women), and engaged in advocacy on key policy issues;
2. Public policy research institutions, including research groups engaged in applied or policy research in universities, research centers, and CSOs; and,
3. The national houses of parliament, the Dewan Perwakilan Rakyat (DPR, the House of Representatives) and, to the extent agreed with USAID, the Dewan Perwakilan Daerah (DPD, the Regional Representative Council).
4. Timely assistance for special initiatives needed to protect or advance democratic governance. Some highlights from the year include the following: Component 1: “Strengthening the representational capacity of membership-and constituency CSOs,”
2
Grantee Yayasan Satu Karsa Karya (YSKK), working through its network of 19 CSOs and its program in community monitoring of the use of the Biaya Operasional Sekolah (BOS, School Operations Fund), is gaining access to information on how as many as 200 schools are spending their BOS. As a consequence, schools are publicly posting their school budgets, and tens of thousands of parents can see exactly how their school budgets are spent and prioritized.
Himpunan Serikat Perempuan Indonesia (HAPSARI, Association of Indonesian Women Unions) and Asosiasi Pendamping Perempuan Usaha Kecil (ASSPUK, Women's Association of Small Business Assistance) have used their grants to build leadership skills and train women members to access microfinance credit. Women have persuaded banks to provide loans to women without requiring their husband’s signatures. Several of these newly empowered members are taking on new leadership roles, and some are being asked to run for political office. Women members have successfully advocated for a local health center to increase per person allowances for health services, and women-owned small businesses have received equipment grants worth IDR 750 million from the local office of the Ministry of Cooperatives.
PROREP THIRD ANNUAL REPORT
Alliance of Independent Journalists (AJI) has incorporated the budget transparency training module developed through a grant from ProRep into its organizational program, increased its membership, and published 31 new articles on budget transparency.
Institute for Promoting Sustainable Livelihood Approach’s (InProSuLA) advocacy on behalf of local farmer groups has led to their winning local government support to use locally produced rice for the Raskin (Rice for the Poor) program. A Member of DPR Commission 4 (Agriculture) has agreed to advocate for this with the responsible government ministries.
Component 2, “Building the capacity of selected universities, think tanks and CSOs to conduct policy-relevant research and analysis on key policy and governance issues,”
Policy Research Network (PRN): The PRN, established through a ProRep grant, has begun conducting regular meetings in implementing its initial workplan. The Network was established to help its members improve policy-research in Indonesia and strengthen peer-to-peer relations and cooperation among research organizations. A June 2013 study tour to the United States helped the founding members both learn skills and best practicies from their US counterparts, and grow together as a group.
Lembaga Penyelidikan Ekonomi dan Masyarakat (LPEM, Institute for Economic and Social Research, Faculty of Economics University of Indonesia): The work of each of the five Policy Research Grant grantees is relevant to the DPR-Government legislative program, PROLEGNAS. LPEM’s evidence-based public policy research, for example, which combines interviews, legal research, and GIS mapping of deforestation – is relevant to the Forestry Law, Regional Government Law, and the Fiscal Balance Law. Indonesian policy-makers are very interested in LPEM’s research findings. In August, LPEM presented these findings in a program along with leaders from the DPR, Forestry Ministry, and the Ministry of Finance.
Paramadina Public Policy Institute’s (PPPI) research on the implementation of performance-based budgeting (PPB) in six pilot ministries over the past ten years is relevant to the amendment of the State Finance Law (Number 17/2003). In September, PPPI researchers presented their model and initial findings at the 3rd International Conference on Government Performance Management and Leadership in Tokyo, Japan.
Legislation: ProRep-supported researchers are working with professional staff of the DPR Secretary General’s staff on the academic papers and draft laws on human rights, and Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR).
Component 3, “Supporting more effective, responsive and transparent legislative processes,”
3
Staff training: Members from the Secretary General’s staff report that they are applying what they have learned in trainings on bill drafting, fiscal impact, and in policy research. They are making greater contributions to draft bills, beginning to include the topic of fiscal impact in academic papers, and playing more substantive roles in drafting policy papers in partnership with Commission expert staff.
BAKN: Assistance to the BAKN has helped to strengthen the institution and its oversight performance. Observable changes include (1) BAKN beginning to exercise effective oversight practices by verifying BPK’s audit reports to the audited
PROREP THIRD ANNUAL REPORT
institutions; (2) better coordination among BAKN, BPK, BPKP, and Inspectorate Generals, which is helping ensure improved accountability of public funds; (3) a coalition of CSOs on Public Fund Accountability has been established and now supports the BAKN in performing effective oversight; (4) four of the six articles in the Amendment to the MD3 Law proposed by BAKN have been considered and adopted by BALEG. If those articles remain in the new MD3 Law when it is enacted, then BAKN’s role in overseeing public funds will have been strengthened, and (5) public participation in legislative oversight has begun, as evidenced by BAKN’s conducting a formal hearing to consider CSOs’ findings as input in BAKN oversight activities.
BALEG has adopted the model of conducting public outreach events to explain and receive comments on newly passed laws which was developed and tested through a series of events supported by ProRep. The BALEG Leadership has decided to allocate a budget for public outreach on new laws in the next budget year
Component 4, “Timely assistance for special initiatives needed to protect or advance democratic governance.”
JABAT -
For many MPs participating in JABAT, their paradigm for constituent relations has changed. Rather than avoiding dialogue with constituents by conducting non-substantive events, they are now willing to conduct dialogues, listen to, and try to respond to their concerns.
-
MPs have increased the numbers and kinds of constituents with which they communicate, moving beyond party supporters and including greater numbers of farmers, fisherfolk, and young people, for example.
-
JABAT constituents have learned that relations with their MPs are not based on financial transactions, but on substantive dialogue and discussions.
South-South triangular cooperation: The ProRep Special Activities Fund has proven to be a useful tool for conducting South-South Triangular Cooperation, and other activities important to the USAID Mission.
III. ACTIVITIES BY COMPONENT This section reports on ProRep activities as proposed in the Year 2 workplan and according to ProRep’s Key Result Areas (KRAs). KRAs correspond to the objectives of ProRep’s M&E plan, which is designed to measure progress toward the project’s goals, as defined in the Program Representasi contract. ProRep’s three component teams are structured to achieve the project’s three main objectives, which are: 1. Representational capacity of membership-and-constituency-based CSOs strengthened; 2. Research institutions’ capacity to conduct and disseminate policy-research on key policy and governance issues strengthened; and 3. More effective, responsive and transparent legislative processes. 4

The Program Objective sums up the overall goal of the ProRep Project. The four Program Intermediate Results (PIRs) rephrase the component titles as results.1 Achieving Key Result Areas (KRAs) under each PIR should “add up” to attaining the Project Intermediate result. In other words, if the project achieves KRA 1.1, KRA 1.2, and KRA 1.3, then the representational capacity of membership and constituency based CSOs should be strengthened (PIR1). In the charts below, the activities and grants under WORK PLAN ACTIVITY column under each Key Result Area (KRA) are taken from ProRep’s Year 2 Work Plan. The column on the right, ACHIEVEMENTS/REMARKS describes what happened with that activity (i.e., was it conducted, changed, what were some results, etc.?). Finally, the box at the bottom of each section gives highlights, lessons learned, etc. in each Component area.

For example, PIR1: “Representational capacity of membership and constituency based CSOs strengthened” expresses the Component 1 title, “Strengthening the representational capacity of 16 to 20 membership-and constituency-based CSOs,” as a result.

PROREP THIRD ANNUAL REPORT
Component 1: Strengthening the representational capacity of membership and constituency-based CSOs Component 1 activities included several planned ProRep-led trainings (i.e, constituency building, engagement with policy makers, social media for advocacy, organizational assessment and development, and creative advocacy). ProRep added some additional trainings in response to partners’ needs and requests (i.e, report writing, facilitation for social transformation). In addition, 12 of ProRep’s14 CSO grants were ending, and ProRep awarded four new grants and signed two follow-on grants. ProRep also conducted a peer learning workshop to capture leassons learned through activities strengthening MP-constituent relations. PIR 1: REPRESENTATIONAL CAPACITY OF MEMBERSHIP AND CONSTITUENCY-BASED CSOS STRENGTHENED KRA 1.1: CSO membership, constituencies, and networks significantly expanded ACTIVITY 1.1.1. Provide constituency building training for CSO partners
7
ACHIEVEMENTS/REMARKS
ProRep conducted two rounds of constituency building trainings for CSO partners; the first was held December 4-6, and the second December 21-23. A total of 40 participants from 19 CSOs attended the two trainings and commented that the trainings provided them with a much better understanding of the concept of “constituent.”
The program helped them define who their constituents really are and introduced them to the three levels of advocacy viewed from a constituency relation angle, i.e. advocating for constituents (where the constituents are passive), with constituents (where they are actively involved), and by constituents (where they get to self advocate).
The training also forced participants to think through and respond to analytical questions like “Who do you represent?” and “What do you represent?” Participants initially responded with general answers like “the public”, “the community”, and “women.” However, when pressed to consider this question in greater depth, they were able identify more specific groups of constituents.
Participants found the training useful, and commented that they learned to better measure representation, to deal more effectively with social conflict, to understand the meaning of constituents, and that effective advocacy does not necessarily require large numbers of constituents. They realized that representation and CSO constituencies are still weak, and that CSOs generally dictate programs to their constituents rather than ask them their concerns.
The training complimented the skills and knowledge that partners acquired through the Organizational Assessment and
PROREP THIRD ANNUAL REPORT
Development (OAD) and creative advocacy trainings (see below for more information on these trainings). 1.1.2. Extension of current grants and provision of new grants through APS 1.1.3. Partners’ Consolidation & Networking Workshop

12 CSOs who had been provided with grants support in the previous year (AJI, Circle Indonesia, Perkumpulan Prakarsa, ISAI, FITRA, HAPSARI, YSKK, Aisyiyah Mudammadiyah, Pergerakan, Lakpesdam NU, ASPPUK, and Muslimat NU) ended their grant programs this year. ProRep provided follow-on grants this year to AJI and YSKK; awarded four new grants to Prakarsa East Java, Cakrawala Timur, Aksara, and IBC to support JABAT program; and awarded one new non-JABAT grant (ICEL). See section on Grants, below for details.
The Partners’ Consolidation & Networking Workshop was held ahead of schedule (in September 2012) to give partners an opportunity to learn from each other as they implemented their grant programs. We reported on this event in last year’s annual report.
With the development of JABAT and grants to CSOs in JABAT locations, the project has learned that increasing the degree of engagement between multi stakeholders and Members of Parliament was essential to enhancing political representation. To determine how best to strengthen this engagement, we needed to first identify what had already been done on the ground and understand its impacts. The project, therefore, facilitated an experiencesharing event with implementing partners who had led or been involved in constituent-MP relations strengthening (i.e., CSO Partners, Constituent Relations Liaisons, and expert staff of the MPs). The event was called the “Peer Learning Workshop on Constituency Relations.”
CSO, CRL, and expert staff of MP Yahya Sacawirya discussed lessons learned from strengthening MP-constituents relations
The benefits partners took away from the workshop included new knowledge on the methodology of constituency-relations strengthening through a mediator (in the case of JABAT, the CRL); experience with the interactive methods used in the workshop; a newfound camaraderie between CSOs, CRL, and the expert staff of the MPs; and possibilities of further collaboration between the CSOs (JABAT and non-JABAT), the CRLs, and expert staff.
The upcoming 2014 election presents a new challenge: i.e. encouraging MPs to truly help their constituents, rather than simply seek re-election. ProRep’s goal is that the next DPR not become “Dewan Keterpilihan” (the House of the Elected), but rather a truly “Dewan Keterwakilan” (the House of Representatives).
PROREP THIRD ANNUAL REPORT
1.1.4. Conduct ProRep National Conference & Expo 1.1.5. Build partners' capacity in organizational assessment & development (OAD), and other management or organizational skills 1.1.6. Facilitator for Social Transformation Training
9
This activity was originally planned to take place toward the end of ProRep’s second year. However, considering the relatively short period from when the CSO grants started (which had been the beginning of the second year) to the initial schedule for the conference (toward the end of the year), we determined that it would be too early to expect changes at the outcome level, which the project had planned to share in this event. Therefore, it was moved to later (toward the end of the third year).
Organizational Assessment & Development (OAD) training was meant to give CSO partners new expertise in assessing their organizational capacity, and provide them with a new perspective and skill in organizational development.
This training was conducted from October 29 to November 2, 2012. 18 participants from 7 organizations participated in the event.
Following up on the training, YSKK used OAD as a tool in their strategic planning, AJI adopted the approach also into their strategic planning, and Muslimat NU used it in training students of Muslim Universities under the Muslimat NU umbrella.
This training had not been included in this year’s work plan. However, since 12 of 14 CSO grants from the first and second year were completed, ProRep believed that it was time to ensure that the good practices that had been developed during the grants implementation period were maintained and “owned” by the stakeholders and that they be sustained. The project decided, therefore, to shift from project-based activities to self-sustaining ones that lead to social transformation and more effective representation. To build on the gains of the project so far, ProRep saw the need to train CSO leaders to become facilitators for social transformation.
The training was developed by a seasoned expert in this field, Cahyo Suryanto, and was conducted on August 26-31, 2013 in Yogyakarta, and attended by 15 representatives of 11 organizations. Facilitated through a dynamic and multi-faceted process, the partners learned about some basic principles of social transformation, for example the importance of listening skills for a facilitator, the 4 dimensions of human potency subjective, objective, inter-subjective and inter-objective - the basic steps in appreciative inquiry approach, the importance of building
PROREP THIRD ANNUAL REPORT
Participants of the training were given an opportunity to really meet with the community in a village to find out the kind of social transformation that has taken place in there.
emotional ties with the community.
10
One of the exciting parts of the training was the field practice where the participants were taken to a village called Pepen, to meet with the people and learn about the kinds of social transformation that have taken place there. They also practiced facilitating community meetings, and provided suggestions on further changes that could potentially take place in Pepen. Several of the suggestions from that practice exercise (i.e. the maintenance of water resource, and the division of waste) were taken seriously by the villagers, and were followed up on afterwards. According to Pak Cahyo, this is the first instance where a fun exercise in training led to such actual changes.
PROREP THIRD ANNUAL REPORT
GRANTS Aliansi Jurnalis Independen (AJI)
AJI’s grant program for this year is a follow on from the first phase last year, and is developed based on the evaluation and input from the implementation of the first grant. The series of activities in this phase includes publishing a compilation of selected articles on budget transparency issues written by the alumni of the budgeting training, producing training modules on budgeting, developing an official website on the budget reporting course (BREC), replicating the budget coverage training in two new locations (Kediri and Lampung), conducting an in depth follow-on budget training in a form of a short course in three locatios (Surabaya, Yogyakarta, and Padang), holding thematic discussions in Kediri and Lampug, and conducting media monitoring on budgets for public affairs. In terms of target achievements, AJI made significant gains after 6 months of implementing this one-year follow-on program:
CIRCLE Indonesia
11
Its membership has increased by 34 new members through collaboration with ProRep.
Improvement in the quality of the articles produced by the alumni of AJI’s training is evident in 16 in-depth reports published by AJI- trained journalists. The expert trainer and AJI’s peer-review panel reviewed each article prior to its publication and determined that they were better informed, more balanced, and more comprehensive than articles on budget issues published in the past.
Within 6 months of program implementation, 47 AJI stories or articles were published in the two new locations (Kediri and Lampung). Combined with the 16 in-depth reports, 63 AJI articles were published within the 6 months of the program.
As a part of its program with ProRep, AJI developed a network of 24 budget experts willing to assist with and comment on budget-related articles drafted by AJI members. This new network comprises experts, activists, MPs, and government officials from a wide range of sectors (CSOs, DPR, DPRD, DPD, academicians, local governments, and police).
The main goal of ProRep’s partnership with CIRCLE Indonesia was to develop the capacity of Indonesian Organic Alliance (Asosiasi Organik Indonesia/AOI ) to advocate for a greater development budget to support organic farming in Indonesia. The capacity building has been provided through a series of trainings and workshops for AOI members on budget analysis, particularly the budget for the subsidy for fertilizers, and by involving AOI members, farmers groups/unions (Gabungan Kelompok Tani/Gapoktan) in monitoring the implementation of the fertilizer subsidies program by the central government.
The monitoring results were then conveyed to policy makers/MPs by meeting them directly in the parliament building in Jakarta and by inviting them to AOI discussions, including discussion on the results of monitoring. In terms of achievements, AOI has successfully formulated fertilizer subsidy policy recommendations and submitted them to Commission IV of the DPR,
PROREP THIRD ANNUAL REPORT
and has also produced a campaign video on the fertilizer subsidy program. Institutionally, this was the first time for AOI to have a direct relationship with legislators in the DPR. With minimal prior experience, AOI successfully established relationships with E. Herman K, Haeron, Msi (Vice Chairman of Commission IV/ Democrat Party), Honing Sany, Arya Bima, and Bo. Hendarawan Supratikno (PDIP Faction), and Murady Darmansyah (Hanura).
Yayasan Satu Karsa Karya (YSKK)
Asosiasi Pendamping Perempuan Usaha Kecil (ASPPUK)
Budget advocacy is also a new area for AOI, and through this grant AOI successfully proposed alternative policies based on the data obtained from the field (evidence based advocacy).
YSKK is one of the grantees that has shown exceptional improvement during its collaboration with ProRep. Institutionally, YSKK has now become part of an NGO network that advocates on education issues at the national level. With ProRep support, YSKK revitalized its institutional direction through strategic planning so that it has a more focused mission statement, especially on the determination of YSKK to be a welcome location for innovative changes in society.
YSKK has become proficient in conducting advocacy through the use of social media. They succeeded in formulating the concept of community-based monitoring (CBM) of School Operations Fund (Biaya Operasional Sekolah/BOS) funds. YSKK presented CBM work and findings to Commission X of the DPR and got a positive response. The challenge YSKK now faces is making the concept of CBM easily implementable by affected communities. YSKK is responding to this challenge through a ProRep follow-on grant designed to enable it to more effectively utilize Law 14/2008 on access to public information.
ASPPUK’s partnership with ProRep seeks to promote policies on small and micro business development that enable women to escape from poverty. To achieve this goal, ASPPUK first analyzed the national government’s program budget that was meant to help poor women. ASPPUK network in Klaten, Aceh and Pontianak conducted a series of budget analysis events, followed by budget monitoring and submitted their findings to local and national policy makers. The results achieved from these interactions included the following:
Small business women’s groups lobbying local MPs and local government agencies in Pontianak led to their proposals being accepted and approved by the Ministries of Cooperatives and SMEs, local offices of Ministries of Health and Trade, Industry and Cooperatives. Approved program changes which came about as a result of their efforts include the following: -

In Klaten, discussions with Arya Bima, Vice Chairman of Commission VI of the DPR, led to the local Ministry of Cooperatives providing IDR 750 million in funding for catering equipment to Persepsi, one of ASPPUK’s small business women groups members.
Relationships ASPPUK has developed with political leaders through the ProRep grant have led to their being better informed on political developments affecting their interests. For example, ASPPUK’s good relationship with MP Arya Bima has led to him being willing to share information on a new law on women’s welfare and the enactment of Law No. 1/2013 on Micro Finance Institutions.
Lakpesdam NU’s program under the grant from ProRep was meant to improve representation of religious-based constituents and women in the electoral district of Central Java X (Batang and Pekalongan). Lakpesdam conducted a survey on constituents’ perceptions of Parliament’s relations with constituents, and organized a series of meetings with constituent groups and dialogues with MPs. Program results /achievement of the program include the following :
A rapid response from policy makers on health issues. For example, after attending the North Coast of Java citizens forum (Rembug Warga Pantura), Pastor Joko Purnomo (of the Catholic Church in Batang) reported that the Bupati of Batang gathered all of his staff to discuss the issues brought up in the Pantura Citizen Forum, specifically health. The major issue raised with respect to health was information sharing and good cooperation with the personnel on the field.
New insights and follow-up of participants. Constituents participating in the citizen forum reported that they felt “recharged by this program” because of their new understanding of the issues they discussed and the knowledge they had acquired. More importantly, the Lakpesdam NU program is already having a multiplier effect; some participants have initiated similar activities in their own organizations and using their own fund. For example, Fatayat NU and Pekka will conduct advocacy training for their members.
Establishment of Pantura Citizens Network. This is a follow-up initiative of Lakpesdam’s grant program with ProRep and is a self-funded effort designed to sustain advocacy efforts for the 27 alternative solutions proposed to the policy makers.

MUSLIMAT NU
Muslimat NU’s grant from ProRep was aimed at strengthening the capacity of Muslimat members to understand the needs and desires of citizens affected by flooding with regard to most effective management of flood budget. Muslimat NU conducted a survey to get a portrait of the condition of flood victims, as well as finding out about the budget in government programs, both national and local, on flood management. Muslimat NU then provided recommendations to policy makers based on survey results they conducted. The the results achieved through this program included the following:
Himpunan Serikat Perempuan Indonesia (HAPSARI)

The Center for the Watershed Area of Solo River (which is responsible for flood management along the river running through Lamongan in East Java), along with the Directorate of Water Resources, will involve Muslimat NU in the citizens forum established by the The Center for the Watershed Area of Solo River.
Muslimat’s researcher interviewed a flood victimed family.
A positive response by MP Saiful Tamliha (PKB) to undertake a program of planting rubber trees in the watersherd area of Banjar river to help prevent flooding.
HAPSARI’s program was focused on strengthening advocacy capacity of its members (10 women’s associations) to promote and protect economic rights of women to access micro credits. In implementing its program, HAPSARI conducted an assessment of current micro credit provision for women’s groups, trained women cadre, and conducted government policy-maker/implementerHAPSARI dialogues on women’s economic rights.
Their training series resulted in 14 cadre trained in facilitation, module development, and lobbying, who in turn recruited 150 new cadre, organized discussions and meetings with them, and approached local governments and policy makers and conducted multi stakeholder dialogues with them. Survey findings indicated that 90 percent of HAPSARI’s member associations were satisfied with the results and impact of their program under ProRep’s grant because it brought them closer to government and the policy makers, both at the local and national levels.
In addition to these specific programmatic achievements, members of HAPSARI associations reported that the trainings on how to engage policy makers and successful facilitation had brought about several other positive impacts, such as new respect from their village leaders and comunities (for attending “national level” events with ProRep).
Several members began to take part in community meetings and were listened to by others after having been trained on microcredit issues. Some were approached by political parties to be proposed as candidates for political positions (e.g. village

leader, local DPR members); and others were trusted by local government of Labuhan Batu to manage 500 young plants of durian, mango, mahogany, and rambutan. See section below for more details on HAPSARI’s achievements. Perkumpulan PRAKARSA
Through its collaboration with PIAR in Kupang (East Nusa Tenggara), Prakarsa developed expertise on the subject of Jampersal (Jaminan Persalinan – Insurance for Child Birth). They presented facts and data on the implementation of Jampersal to a variety of stakeholders, including national and local MPs, the Ministry of Health and its local offices, journalists, and women concerned groups.
Prakarsa began its program by conducting desk research to gather information on Jampersal, and presented its findings in a preliminary consultation meeting with the DPR which was also attended by journalists. Prakarsa also invited to the meeting individuals involved in Jampersal implementation in Kupang, including a mother who was also a recipient of Jampersal and an activist who helped her community to begin receiving the insurance.
Following this preliminary “eye opener,” Prakarsa prepared for and conducted a survey using a Citizen Report Card (CRC) program in Kupang, then analyzed and packaged the findings in a policy brief. Prakarsa presented its findings in a series of forums and meetings, including a press conference in Kupang, a national conference in Jakarta, and similar conference in Kupang.
Prakarsa facilitated meetings between the community in Kupang and MPs from East Nusatenggara electoral district (Charles Mesang, Herman Herry, and Fary Francis) during their recess periods. Herman Herry said he would follow up on the CRC findings with the Minister of Health and the Chairman of Commission IX in the DPR. The Director for Mothers Care of the Ministry of Health, Dr. Gita Maya Koemara Sakti, who attended the conference in Jakarta said she appreciated the findings of the CRC and considered it as a “healthy feedback” for the government and would follow it up on her front. Prakarsa’s program on Jampersal has successfully brought together different stakeholders and educated them on where we are with Jampersal implementation.

Konfederasi Pergerakan Rakyat Indonesia (PERGERAKAN)
Sekretariat Nasional (Seknas) FITRA
Aisyiyah Muhammadiyah
16
PERGERAKAN’s grant was meant to develop the capacity of the Federation of Fisherfolks Groups (FSNN, Federasi Serikat Nelayan Nusantara) to make them better able to advocate for transparency in the use of the state budget for a national program on improving fisherfolks’ welfare (PKN, Peningkatan Kesejahteraan Nelayan).
PERGERAKAN delivered its program in three phases. First was strengthening of the advocacy skills of FSNN cadre by instructing them on becoming facilitators and trainers in advocacy training, and assisting them in delivering their own trainings in their locations.
Second, PERGERAKAN helped the federations to become better representatives of their members by assisting them in monitoring the implementation of the PKN and then documenting and disseminating the monitoring results.
And third, PERGERAKAN assisted the federations to establish relationships with policy makers by facilitating meetings and forums where the board and members of FSNN could meet and discuss their findings on the PKN implementation with Commission IV of DPR, Special Task Force for PKN, Marine and Fishery Minstry, and media.
FITRA’s grant program with ProRep was to promote transparency and accountability in the budgeting process by strengthening the budgetary and supervisory role of the DPR through three main activities: (1) strengthening civil society’s literacy on the budget process by disseminating a training module on budget literacy in the form of a comic book; (2) improving the quality of the relationship between elected members of parliament and their constituents through meetings in the electorates and at the national level; and (3) supporting the DPR to become more effective in performing its role in the budget process.
FITRA disseminated the comic book to grassroots communities (farmers, fisherfolks, labors) in three electoral areas, South Sumatera, East Java, and West Java. After the grant period, FITRA continued to use the comic book with other projects, including with World Vision Indonesia, to educate community groups on budget transparency.
FITRA continues its efforts to influence the DPR on national budget formulation, and they still use policy recommendation produced from the previous project. FITRA also continues applying what they learned through ProRep’s training in creative advocacy, documenting cases using photos and reports.
FITRA’s comic book on budget literacy
Aisyiyah Muhammadiyah’s program was aimed at strengthening the role of women leaders in Kendal and Klaten (Central Java) in advocating the use of the national budget for Jampersal and Keluarga Berencana (KB, family planning) through the use of
PROREP THIRD ANNUAL REPORT
information and communications technology. Through the grant, Aisyiyah raised the literacy awareness of women in the two districts in budgeting and in the use of the national budget for Jampersal and KB.
17
Aisyiyah conducted an assessment in the two districts on the use of the national budget allocated to the districts for the Jampersal and KB, then held a workshop to get inputs on the results of their assessment and on the national policies on the budget for Jampersal and KB. This partner then developed a new web portal for training and advocacy, www.aisyiyah.or.id, which focuses primarily on reproductive health and Jampersal. Aisyiyah also uses facebook and twitter to expand the outreach of their campaign activity.
To complement the outreach effort, Aisyiyah built productive relationship with MPs from electoral areas that covered the two districts, first by conducting a dialogue with MP Sumarjati Arjoso, Vice Chairman of Commission IX (demographic affairs, health, manpower and transmigration) and shared its policy paper on the implementation Jampersal. The MP responded positively to Aisyiyah and its policy paper, and promised to share it with her colleagues in Commission IX. She also suggested that Aisyiah share these findings with the government, noting that the Ministry of Health needs substantive input like this to improve its health insurance for the poor.
Aisyiyah organized a meeting between DPD member, H. Afnan Hadikusumo, and Jampersal women motivators to discuss issues that could be brought up to the DPD, followed by a consultation with MP Mardiana Indraswati of Commission IX to share with her the result of Aisyiyah’s survey on Jampersal implementation. The engagement with policy and decision makers was completed with consultations with the Deputy of the Ministre of Health, H. Ali Gufron Mukti, and the National Family Planning Board.

Indonesia Center for Environmental Law (ICEL)

ICEL implemented its program at both the policy and field levels.
At the policy level, ICEL conducted a series of meetings to solicit input for the annotation of the environmental law. Among other meetings, this included a discussion with an expert (Andri Gunawan Wibisana Ph.D.) to discuss the status of the environmental law in the overall system of national laws and the challenges in its implementation. Another meeting was conducted with the Deputy Minister of Environmental Affairs, Ilyas Asaad, to explore the possibility of synergizing activities under ICEL’s grant program funded by ProRep (on developing a caucus within the DPR) with a program of the Minsitry (on developing environmental caucus in DPRDs). A meeting was conducted with the former Minister of Environment, Sonny Keraf, to get his support for the caucus. Ex-Minister Keraf highlighted the importance of involving stakeholders from the Parliament (and former MPs), government, and civil society sectors that had been involved in advocating for the Environmental Law and in advocating to the government to implement the Law.
At the field level, ICEL conducted a survey on an environmental audit to gather facts and data on the impact of the waste water from the industry in Serang (Indah Kiat Pulp and Paper factory) and submitted the findings to the local government and local DPRD. It also organized series of meetings between the community around the factory and the local government and DPR, also with a unit of the national police force to discuss the findings. They are now waiting for the government’s response to the finding.
ICEL has begun working to engage MPs on the law and has built a good relationship with one of the local MPs in Serang, Ahmad Yani (of PPP party). However, ICEL also recognized that they will need to exert greater effort and develop creative strategies if they are to engage more MPs, especially at the national level, effectively. ICEL has discovered that environmental issues are often less attractive to MPs then those related to extractive industry or energy. This rocky start in engaging MPs has led ICEL to report that there might be a delay in establishing the Parliamentary Caucus on Environment. ICEL hoped that the willingness of MP Ahmad Yani to go hand in hand with ICEL in bringing up the pollution case further could lead to a smoother way to get a more tangible solution.

Institute for Promoting Sustainable Livelihood Approach (InProSuLA)

ProRep is partnering with InProSuLA, a CSO promoting sustainable livelihoods, to strengthen the capacity of their constituents, the Association of Farmers Groups or Asosiasi Gabungan Kelompok Tani/Gapoktan in Central Java to have a stronger voice and influence on policies related to food security.
The program is aimed at decentralization of the government’s food security program called Raskin/Beras untuk Keluarga Miskin (Rice for the Poor), and is comprised of a training for the Gapoktan members to learn about the food security budget, as well as a survey to collect data on the implementation of the Raskin distribution.
In addition, together with the farmers groups, InProSuLA has developed outreach materials; participated with MP Djuwarto in radio and TV talk shows to discuss the Raskin issues; facilitated a public hearing with the Yogyakarta DPRD and the Vice Chairman of the DPD, Her Majesty Queen Hemas; met with the Ministry of Agriculture and Members and staff of the DPR’s Commission VIII (social welfare) and IV (agriculture).
MP Djuwarto of Commission IV (second from right) and Petrus Sarijo, the Director of InProSuLA (second from left), on the talk show on TVRI Yogyakarta.
The first major public event in the InProSuLA program was a sermon with a nationally renowned artist, Emha Ainun Najib (Cak Nun), who skillfully blended musical performance with his own religious preaching plus discussion/socialization on food security, the focus of InProSuLA’s advocacy. This religious event, held on July 19, 2013, ended with a signing of a joint commitment between the local government (Bupati Kulon Progo, Hasto Wardoyo), Ministry of Agriculture (Chairman of Food Availability and Security Center, Tjuk Eko Hari Basuki), Provincial DPRD (Deputy Chairman of Commission B, Gunawan Handoyo), religious leaders, and representatives of the community.
The second event was the launching of Kulonprogo’s premium rice variety, Melati Menoreh (Menor) on September 13, 2013. The readiness of Kulonprogo to supply the Raskin for Yoyakarta area was announced in this event (Beras Daerah/Rasda or local rice), and the Chairman of the MPR who came to this event supported the Rasda idea and said that the Raskin should use local products. As next steps, InProSuLA plans to build alliances with other organizations and research institutions interested in improving Raskin and launch a party or fraksi road show to get broader commitment from political parties on this issue.
InProSuLA is also working with local authorities to encourage them to use locally produced rice instead of the current

rice provided through the program. Currently, a combination of rice imported from outside of Indonesia and Indonesian rice is used in this program. The local government of Kulon Progo is interested and has raised the issue at the national level. DPR Member H. Djuwarto of Commission IV is committed to bringing this proposed policy change to other members of Commission IV and conduct a coordination meeting with related ministries, specifically Social Welfare, Agriculture, BULOG.

ACHIEVEMENTS/REMARKS
This training was conducted in two rounds. The first was held on January 28-30, 2013, attended by 24 participants from 12 CSOs. The second, which was conducted March 22-26, 2013, was combined with constituency building training, and was attended by 15 representatives of JABAT CSOs. The details of the combined version can be found in Activity 1.4.2 below. The participants of both trainings discussed the future of social movements; forms of political engagement/ linkages; and the structure, authority, and functions of the Parliament. They also worked on the development of diplomacy and advocacy skills, such as formulating policy briefs, analyzing political actors, lobbying, and effective speaking. The training included several exercises, one of which involved having the participants analyze levels, spaces, and forms of power using a physically three dimensional “power cube.” One of the issues discussed in the training was that while it is recommended that CSOs need to find a “champion” from within the policy makers and approach them in a friendly, personal manner (this was one of the points suggested by the MPs during the FGD conducted to seek inputs from MPs for this training ), this should not be used as the sole means for trying to influence policy outcomes, because the extreme use of the approach could potentially fall into collusion and breach the principle of transparency. Examples of the result of this training can bee seen in the improved relationship of CSO partners with policy makers. HAPSARI and YSKK, for example, are now confident in meeting MPs and government officials in a friendly manner. This event was postponed to later (2014) and would be merged with activity 1.1.4 (ProRep National Conference), due to the limited funds we have for this year and to give more time for the partners and former partners to nurture their programs to get deeper or more comprehensive impacts. This cluster of acticities was originally intended to be provided to partners based on their individual needs.
Over the past year, ProRep assisted partners on communication strategies by having our consultant for social media training, Budi Setiawan, provide online consultation discussions with partners through the Social Media for Development Work

facebook page. Over the next project period we will have him visit partner organizations to provide them with hands-on assistance. ProRep provided grants to partners who implemented their program on research/survey results basis (YSKK, Prakarsa, Muslimat, Aisyiyah, ICEL, HAPSARI, Lakpesdam). We also provided special training on CSO partners can effectively use research in advocacy. We included three of these organizations (YSKK, Circle Indonesia, Prakarsa) in a policy research training conducted by Component 2. This activity had not been planned for this year. However, ProRep saw the need to conduct it as most of the first tranche of grant funding was ending, and grantees needed a tool to measure their development, and to continue their development after their grants had ended. The project, therefore, developed a tool for grantees called Self-Assessment of Competency (SAC). It was designed to help partners accurately gauge their representation skills, strengths, and weaknesses. The SAC captures the level of representativeness of the organizations by measuring the quality of their advocacy and their engagement with constituents and policy makers, and their capacity in project and organizational management. Ten CSOs completing their grants this quarter participated in this self-assessment. Some grantees combined the SAC with their final program reflection workshop (ASPPUK, Prakarsa-PIAR, HAPSARI), while some others made it part of their strategic planning event (YSKK, Circle Indonesia). Finally, Muslimat NU, Aisyiyah Muhammadiyah, Pergerakan, and FITRA conducted SAC as a stand-alone exercise. Four of the ten CSO partners (Prakarsa-PIAR, Lakpesdam, Circle-AOI, and Asppuk) chose their own facilitators to conduct the assessments, while the remaining assessments were conducted by ProRep consultant Budi Setiawan. The assessments yielded two important findings:
Those organizations which had little experience engaging with policy makers prior to the ProRep program found it cumbersome to meet with MPs initially. However, once they began they were excited to discuss their issues of concern with the MPs, especially in those cases when the MPs or their staffs later followed up with real action. As this was the first time for these partners to engage with policy makers and the grant periods were quite short (6 to 9 months), it was not reasonable to expect the policy-makers to bring about substantive policy changes during the grant period.

1.3.2. Social media applications for advocacy outreach
22
Social Media for Advocacy training was conducted in two rounds; the first was conducted Feb 11 – 15, 2013 in Yogyakarta, and the second June 18-20, 2013 in Bogor. 15 organizations participated in the two-part training. Part 1 focused on exploring and getting to know more about the features of social media (Facebook, Twitter, Blog), and the second part trained CSOs in formulating campaign strategies using social media. As a follow-on to the training, ProRep offered technical assistance to individual organizations to help them to fine-tune their organizational campaign strategies. Some CSO’s partners are now starting to set up their organizational campaign strategies, whereas during the implementation of their grant program with ProRep, they used social media only occasionally. YSKK, Trainer Budi Setiawan (right) assisted the IRE and Aisyiah have requested individual technical assistance in this participants during the hands on execise in the area and YSKK has made major changes in its campaign strategy. training. YSKK is now using the web, fan page, and Twitter as a campaign medium and their target is to reach 250 on their Facebook “Awasi Dana BOS” per month, 200 followers on @AwasiBOS Twitter account every three months and 750 hits every three months on their website. Civic Journalism for Advocacy training was conducted on September 26-29, 2013 in Bogor and nine organizations participated. The media specialist from KINERJA (another USAID project), Firmansyah, supported the training as a resource person and facilitator. The training methodology combined facilitation, tutorials, and practical exercises in civic journalism, which involved interviewing people on the street and coming back to class to report on the interview. Participants were brought to three different sites; an elementary school, a traditional market and also a community health center (puskesmas). Each participant was assigned to cover one issue and write an article on it based on observations and the interview with resources person. After sharing their reporting experiences participants were sent back to the field the following day with a different assignment. Each participant was required to make a final “stand up report” – a live radio or television report. We had planned to work with Google to enrich the Social Media for Advocacy training and were in the process of making arrangements to work together. However, given a change in the Google Indonesia representative we have not yet worked together as planned. We are still open to and would like to bring Google into our capacity building program for partners next year.

1.3.3. Creative advocacy training for new grantees 1.3.4. Report Writing training
The training was conducted for the JABAT grantees and is reported as part of Activity 1.4.2 below.
This training had not been included in Oct 2012-Sept 2013 workplan, but was added following ProRep’s review of partners’ reports toward the end of their grants.
23
ProRep has learned of many good practices and success stories resulting from our partners’ work, but these stories had not been presented adequately in their reports. Closely related to this, statements by Members of the DPR’s special committee deliberating the newly enacted CSO Law made it clear that DPR Members are not well-informed about the CSO sector and their many positive accomplishments, so it would be helpful if more reports and stories about CSOs work was shared with the DPR. These phenomena challenged ProRep to develop a new training on report writing to help our partners tell their stories more effectively. The training, which has also been requested by some of the CSO partners, was held in July 2013, and discussed basic principles in report writing. ProRep invited two resource persons for the training: a young and wellknown novelist, Ahmad Fuadi, and an experienced report writer, Cahyo Suryanto. Fuadi shared his inspirational and motivating experience in writing, as well as his technique in preparing his novels – called “mind mapping.” Pak Cahyo underlined the importance for a report writer to understand different levels of changes: the way people do things (behavioral/methodical level), the way people manage things (management level), and the way decisions are made (authority/ structural level). A report writer needs to be able to recognize which level he/she would write about. Some of the partners (namely, YSKK, HAPSARI) managed to produce much better reports that included better “story telling” following the training.

KRA 1.4: Support for CSOs in JABAT Program ACTIVITY 1.4.1. Provide grants for CSOs & research institutions to work together in JABAT locations
ACHIEVEMENTS/REMARKS In recent months ProRep has awarded a number of new grants to research institutions and CSOs working in JABAT locations. Indonesia Budget Center (IBC). The main objective of IBC project is to strengthen relations between constituents and Members of Parliament using two strategies: organizing and educating community groups assisting member of parliament (Teguh Juwarno) in conducting recess activities and working with and helping to strengthen and build support for the DPR’s public accounts committee, BAKN. IBC has already provided the MP with recess tools to better plan recess visits and track follow up on commitments made during recess visits.
24
IBC facilitated a discussion between MP
Teguh Juwarno and the community in Brebes. IBC also facilitated dialogues with community groups (street vendors, university students, fisher folks) and Teguh Juwarno during the recess period. One result of these discussions is that the local government unit for trade and industry agreed to facilitate more dialogue to seek a better location for relocated street vendors. During the dialogue, representatives from the local government unit for responsible for public works also raised an issue regarding the flood management plan for Tegal municipalities. They asked Pak Teguh Juwarno to help them obtain additional funds from the national budget since they did not have the funds in their budget for development of ponds to help regulate flooding. Pak Teguh agreed to help them and will include it as part of his proposal for the national budget. With regard to policy dialogue, IBC has built a bridge enabling stakeholders MP Eva Kusuma Sundari shared her view in a to provide input on bills on the legislation agenda. For example, information discussion with KUAK and BAKN. on the bill on Search and Rescue that is being prepared by Commission V, where Pak Teguh is a member, was shared with the Slamet Mountain Volunteers and they provided useful suggestions. Another initiative that IBC is working on is formulating a draft position paper on strengthening the BAKN, which will be considered in the amendment to the MD3 Law. IBC also facilitated the development of the NGO coalition on accountability consolidation (KUAK). KUAK consist of ten NGO members who will focus on gathering public support for a stronger, more

effective BAKN. KUAK has also suggested making the BAKN more effective by establishing public accountability mechanisms between BAKN outside groups and organizations. Finally, IBC is working to build public support for the BAKN strengthening and is working hand in hand with media to build this support. Toward this end, IBC has supported the publication of 37 articles (print and online) on the BAKN and budget accountability. AKSARA. The main objective of AKSARA’s project is to empower and assist women community groups to participate in public policy dialogues (including with a JABAT member) so that these groups begin to learn to exercise influence during the political process. AKSARA’s focus is on poverty reduction and they conduct training on economics, society, and culture; training on developing micro enterprises; and they facilitate dialogue with local and national stakeholders (local government, local parliament members and Member of Parliament, Soemarjati Arjoso. To date, AKSARA has received commitments from Soemarjati Arjoso to help women’s groups access national government programs. Additionally, she has given her assurance that she will help them acquire needed capital for their programs.
Prakarsa East Java. Prakarsa’s grant is designed to help develop the capacity of farmers and fishermen’s associations in Electoral District II of East Java more effectively present their aspirations on health and education policies and programs. Prakarsa works closely with JABAT MP Malik Haramain in this effort.
25
The Head of Local Office for Religious Affairs of Kab.Probolinggo, Miftahurrahman (right), signed an MOU as his commitment to take up constituents’ aspirations on education.
Conducting a series of activities, including baseline studies, constituent education, and focus groups involving ten villages in Pasuruan and Probolinggo regencies, Prakarsa has helped to coalesce citizens' aspirations and achieved common agreement on the main problems they face related to education. Beyond reaching this agreement, Prakarsa worked with the associations to present these issues to relevant strategic parties, including the DPR Member representing the area of Probolinggo and Pasuruan, DPRD Members, the District Education Office, and community groups, such as Lakpesdam NU, DPC PKB, and Forum Warga. Prakarsa facilitated a process through which all of these groups signed an MOU commitment to work together to ensure that constituents’ education goals be put in the budget plan of APBD of Pasuruan and Probolinggo. One of their goals is to ensure that the budget includes scholarships for school and college students from poor families.

Cakrawala Timur. ProRep’s grant to Cakrawala Timur is to aid their advocacy efforts in support of the interests of former migrant workers to policy makers/implementers in Electoral District VI of East Java. More specifically, the grant seeks to build the capacity of former migrant workers to communicate issues concerning former migrant workers to MPs, policy makers and implementers. Cakrawala Timur cooperates with JABAT MP Eva Kusuma Sundari who supports their efforts.
26
Through conducting hearings and FGDs to map out the problems and issues, Cakrawala Timur defined several problems faced by migrant workers in Kab.Tulung Agung, Kab.Blitar, and Kota Blitar, not only before they go abroad, or during work in a foreign country, but also after they return to Indonesia. To find solutions to these problems, Cakrawala Timur successfully involved multiple parties, including Members of DPR RI, village heads, regional disnakertrans, and Members of city/regency DPRDs. During the first of the Public Dialogue, Cakrawala Timur managed to obtain a written commitment from DPR RI Member Hon. Eva K, Sundari regarding some of the issues raised by former migrant workers, i.e. empowering former migrant workers to become self-sufficient, access for former migrant workers to capital to establish small business/cooperatives, and support for the children of former migrant workers.

1.4.2. Integrated training for Selected Jabat Grantees
Developing Program through Creative Advocacy Strategy Development - ProRep provided a combined ‘Creative Advocacy and Program Development’ training to seven CSOs whose concept papers for JABAT grant programs were accepted by the ProRep Grants Evaluation Committee. Participating organizations included ASPPUK (Jakarta), Aisyiyah (Yogyakarta), Setara (Rembang, Central Java), AKSARA (Yogyakarta), Cakrawala Timur (Surabaya), Prakarsa (Lamongan - East Java), and Indonesia Budget Center/IBC (Jakarta).
These organizations were invited to submit a full grant proposal, but prior to submitting their proposals we recommended that they participate in a training to introduce them to concepts that would strengthen their program design. The training started with elements from the ‘Creative Advocacy’ module (an introduction to public access to information, followed by challenges in advocacy, appreciative inquiry, and introduction to social media). It was followed by an overview of the JABAT initiative and ended with applying the framework of creative advocacy and analytical view of Organizational Assessment and Development (OAD) into the JABAT program. The results of this training were the fully developed proposals reviewed by the ProRep GEC which led to the selection of four new organizations to implement grant programs under JABAT – Aksara, Prakarsa Lamongan, IBC and Cakrawala Timur.
Integrated Training on Constituency Building and Engagement with Policy Makers - We decided to combine these two trainings considering the relatively short time period that existed for implementing the JABAT grants.

The constituency and representation section went exceedingly well. It helped partners realize and better focus on the real mandate of their organizations. The point of this section was that CSOs should listen to and respond to the demands of their constituents, rather than on the desires of their organization. The second section of the training was about the Parliament and how to engage the MPs. Learning from the experience of conducting the first round in January (see Activity 1.2.1), the project made some adjustments to this round, for example by preparing a better three dimensional cube for the power cube exercise, and by having a former MP, Alvin Lie, in addition to another expert from Gajah Mada University, to share their views on how CSOs should engage policy makers. We can see how the CSOs are applying it in their current JABAT grants programs. Below are some quotes from the participants:
PROREP THIRD ANNUAL REPORT
Quotes from participants in Integrated Training on Constituency Building and Engagement with Policy Makers “In the beginning, it was kind of hard to follow the substance, but in the end it opened in me a new understanding in me of what constituency really means” - Munir of Prakarsa East Java “The atmosphere is very informal and relaxed, but the message is so serious and very solid” - Badar of Aksara. “I will bring this message to my management when we review the vision and mission of our organization later, and will adapt it into our organizational changes”, admitted La Ode Salam of IBC. “It really shakes our mindset and makes us realize that what we have done (which we thought was so big) turns out to be so small, compared to what has been fought for and achieved by other organizations”, said Darwanto of Aksara. Gesti of Cakrawala Timur said that the training has helped her see advocacy in a wider context, that CSOs should involve policy makers and other related stakeholders in their advocacy.
SIGNIFICANT ACCOMPLISHMENTS / LESSONS LEARNED
Some of our partner organizations have grown significantly through their partnership with ProRep. YSKK and HAPSARI are examples. No longer just a locally based network, YSKK has become an important member of a national coalition of NGOs working on education issues. Through their work on community-based monitoring of the BOS (School Operations Fund), YSKK engaged with regional and national NGO coalitions on education issues. YSKK has enthusiastically utilized trainings provided in the ProRep capacity building series, especially social media for advocacy training. It has even engaged with DPR Commission X. YSKK has now appointed a staff person responsible for data and information management. Through Organizational Assessment and Development (OAD) training, YSKK absorbed the knowledge and now uses it as a tool for their own strategic

planning. As a result, YSKK is now more focused on its mission statement, and leaders and staff are more aware of the importance of knowledge management to their development as an organization. YSKK is better able to implement community based monitoring on BOS, begun during Phase I of the ProRep grant, by more expertly using the provisions of the disclosure of public information law to gain access to information. YSKK has become more adept at working through its network of 19 CSOs and CBOs, and through them gaining access to information on how elementary schools manage their BOS funds. HAPSARI’s work with grass roots women’s groups has enabled them to gain access to and utilize a microfinance loan program. Through implementing their USAID grant, HAPSARI together with their members identified the microfinance loan program and how to access it. HAPSARI then conducted a series of capacity building exercises for their members, training them to apply for and receive these loans. To date, ten women members in Kulon Progo have succeeded in accessing these microbusiness credits and are using them to build their own businesses. These developments are a direct result of HAPSARI’s becoming more aggressive and successful in advocacy, interacting with local stakeholders, local governments, local parliament members and even banks. The program was well targeted for assisting HAPSARI’s members in Kulon Progo, because the Kulon Progo district has both a local business development unit and cooperative unit. Now that these grassroots women’s organizations understand how to access these microfinance services and build their own businesses, they will train others to access them and build their small businesses. AJI incorporated the budget transparency training module developed through the grant into its organizational program (http://brec.ajiindonesia.or.id/). AJI considers capacity building on budget transparency a need for all of its members. During Phase I of project implementation, AJI produced a training module on budget transparency and alumni of the budget transparency training program has 31 articles on budget transparency published. The good relationship that InProSuLA has built with concerned stakeholders and policy/decision makers at the local and national level has resulted in the shift of ownership of the Raskin program (Rice for the Poor) issue from InProSuLA’s concern to a shared concern with the local government. Now that InProSuLA’s grant is approaching its end, they have local government’s commitment to support the additional/follow on activities that they need to do. The Raskin program uses Indonesian and imported rice in the program now, and InProSuLA has encouraged the Kulon Progro to local government request that locally produced, higher-quality rice be used instead. Kulon Progro has raised the issue at the national level, and DPR Member H. Djuwarto of Commission IV is committed to raise this issue in Commission IV and to conduct a coordination meeting with the Social Welfare, Agriculture, and BULOG ministries. As a next step, ProRep could connect InProSuLA with AJI to provide an opportunity for both partners to explore the possibility of collaboration (the journalists could disseminate the food sovereignity vs food security issue, InProSuLA could become the information source or help connect the journalists with key decision makers in the government/policy-makers side). AJI could also help InProSuLA build connections with the desk editors of the media, to ensure the support from the editors to bring up the issue in their media.

Component 2: Building the capacity of selected universities, think tanks and CSOs to conduct and disseminate policy-relevant research and analysis on key policy and governance issues ProRep’s Component 2 is designed to strengthen research institutions’ capacity to conduct and disseminate policy research on key policy and governance issues. More specifically, ProRep’s purpose is to build the capacity of 15-20 research groups and institutions to conduct timely, high-quality policy research and ensure that it is effectively distributed to legislators, policymakers, media groups and others. In September and October of 2012, ProRep awarded five 17-month Policy Research Grants (PRGs), the centerpiece of ProRep’s Component 2 program. ProRep worked closely with the PRG grantees, providing both in-country and remote mentoring assistance on grantee research projects, facilitated the establishment of Policy Research Network (PRN), supported the DPR’s Secretary General Office, specifically the Deputy for Legislative Affairs, in preparing two Academic Paper and Bills on Amendment of Human Rights Law and on Corporate Social Responsibility. The DPR Secretary General’s Office requested that ProRep assistance be framed under an MOU between the Secretary General and USAID. The draft MOU is now being reviewed by the Secretary General Office. Not having the MOU in place has caused some delay in ProRep implementing “Support the Preparation of DPR Academic Paper” (Activity 2.1.1).

PIR 2: RESEARCH INSTITUTIONAL CAPACITY TO CONDUCT AND DISSEMINATE POLICY RESEARCH ON KEY POLICY AND GOVERNANCE ISSUES STRENGTHENED KRA 2.1 & KRA 2.2: Research institutions’ effectiveness and policy research capabilities improved; quality, volume, and dissemination of research institutions' policy research increased Initiatives and outcomes relating to KRA 2.1 and 2.2 are closely linked, and presented here as a single set of activities. ACTIVITY ACHIVEMENTS/REMARKS 2.1.1. Support ProRep awarded five Policy Research Grants, which are seventeen-month longer-term Policy grant for conducting policy research on different governance-related topics. Research Grants Grantees are the Institute for Economic & Social Research at the Faculty of Economics-University of Indonesia (LPEM FE-UI), Paramadina Public Policy Institute (PPPI), Women Research Institute (WRI), Institute for Research and Empowerment (IRE), and the Centre for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS). Beginning in October 2012, the grantees have collected their data through a variety of policy research methods, which have included interviewing MPs and relevant local and national government officials. Abdul Rozaki and Titok Heryanto of IRE met All grantees’ policy research topics are relevant to the DPR’s national with DPD Secretary General to discuss about their research on DPD Members political legislative agenda. representation. LPEM’s policy research is relevant to possible amendments to the Forestry Law (Number 41/1999), the Regional Government Law (32/2004) and the Law on Fiscal Balance (33/2004). The research paper was revised after the first round of peer review, which included review by Leonid Polishchuk, the assigned mentoring partner. LPEM researchers interviewed seven members from the DPR, four members of DPRD, seven central government officials and forty three local government officials. LPEM also involved CSOs in the focus group discussions. PPPI is studying the implementation of performance-based budgeting (PPB) in six pilot ministries over the past ten years. This policy research is relevant to a plan to amend the State Finance Law (Number 17/2003). All data collection is complete, and the project is now preparing an interim policy paper. PPPI’s mentor, Jamie Boex, will review the paper, and there will also be two rounds of peer review by members of the Policy Research Network. In conducting their research, PPPI researchers interviewed dozens of middle ranked government officials, conducted surveys in six ministerial offices and conducted quantitative analysis of their findings.

WRI is conducting a study on Indonesian women parliament members and the Gender Equality Bill. For this project, WRI interviewed several parliament members, both male and female, conducted a national public opinion survey about women political representation and a series of focused group discussion in Jakarta, Makassar and Surabaya. Their interim policy paper should be complete by the end of October and it will be reviewed by mentors Leonid Polishchuk and Renata Simatupang and by PRN peers in two series of peer reviews. CSIS is studying the relationship between elected DPR Representatives and their constituents, exploring ways to improve representation. This study is relevant to MD3 Law (Number 27/2009), and relevant to political parties’ policies in dealing with their MPs and party local branches and cadre. For this project, CSIS researchers shadowed nine MPs (six national and three DKI Jakarta) over several constituency and recess visits, conducted in-depth interview with a number of MPs, interviewed Indonesian voters residing overseas, and conducted a national opinion survey. CSIS is now preparing their interim policy paper which will be reviewed by Jamie Boex as well as by PRN peers. IRE’s study is entitled, "Deepening Democracy in Indonesia: Promoting Substantive Representation as A Model Regional Representatives Council (DPD)." This research is also relevant to the process of amending the MD3 Law (Number 27/2009). To gather the relevant data, IRE researchers interviewed seven DPD Members and conducted two regional opinion surveys, one in East Kalimantan and the other in Yogyakarta. The interim policy paper is being drafted now. Once complete, it will be submitted to mentors Leonid Polishchuk and Renata Simatupang for review, and will also undergo PRN peer review. 2.1.2. Support mentoring for Policy Research Grantees.
32
To ensure the quality of their policy research and to help build higher research standards among PRN grantees, ProRep has established a mentoring program for all grantees. Beginning in October 2012, two senior research associates and a leading consultant on developing think tanks were assigned to assist our grantees. Jamie Boex was assigned to work with CSIS, Ritu Nayyar-Stone was assigned to LPEM and PPPI, and Leonid Polishchuk was assigned to partner with IRE and WRI. Ritu Nayyar-Stone resigned from Urban Institute in March 2013 and her grantees were assigned to Jamie Boex (PPPI) and Leonid Polishchuk (PEM). To enable easier and more frequent discussion between mentors and grantees on quantitative data analysis, especially for grantees less experienced in this methodology, an additional mentor was assigned, local consultant Renata Simatupang, to help three grantees strengthen their quantitative aspects of their research.
PROREP THIRD ANNUAL REPORT
The mentors have provided substantive comments and suggestion for improving the policy-research work of each grantee, helping them to revise their research designs; refine and improve research instruments for data collection, data processing and analysis; and most recently in preparing their policy research papers. To date, there have been at least four rounds of review between mentors with grantees: one research design revision (September to October 2012), review of initial findings (February 2013), second review of findings (July – August) and drafting the interim policy paper (September to the present). As a part of the mentoring program, on February 26, 2013 ProRep conducted a workshop where all grantees’ research teams made presentations on their Researchers of Policy Research Grant research progress and invited the other grantees to comment on and make grantees following the presentation of their suggestions to help them improve their projects. Three mentors participated in colleagues together with their mentors. the workshop, observed the interaction among grantees, and themselves raised challenging questions regarding each research project. The following day the mentors conducted one-on-one meeting with their grantees to help them with implementing some of the changes and improvements that were suggested. This kind of peer review is not common in Indonesia. ProRep is helping to develop new relationships among research organizations in Indonesia, improving our grantees’ current research projects, and making long-term contributions to building improved policy research practices and standards. The mentorship role will be more crucial in the next or the last stage of the research, finalization of policy research paper from the grantees. 2.1.3. Provide Policy Fellows Course 2012
33
As part of ProRep’s strategy for strengthening public policy research through Policy Research Grants, for proper and quality implementation of the Policy Research Grants, ProRep deems it necessary that all of the Policy Research Grantees be informed with a standard to conduct, analyze and disseminate policy-relevant research on key policy and governance issues. To facilitate such initiative, a three and a half day Policy Fellows Course event was held. The PFC was conducted in Serpong, Banten, attended by 23 representatives of the five Policy Research Grant awardees (14 researchers), selected ProRep’s Component 2 CSO grantees (6 researchers, from are Institut untuk Studi Arus Informasi (ISAI), Perkumpulan PRAKARSA, CIRCLE Indonesia, Seknas FITRA, Konfederasi Pergerakan Rakyat Indonesia (KPRI/Pergerakan) and ‘Aisyiah ), potential local trainers of future Policy Fellows Course (3 researchers from Graduate School of Public Administration Gadjah Mada University).
PROREP THIRD ANNUAL REPORT
Two senior research associates, Ritu Nayyar-Stone and Katie Mark delivered four modules (Policy Analysis, Monitoring and Developing Indicators, Data Collection, Analysis and Reporting, and Formulating Policy Recommendations). The other two modules were delivered by ProRep PRD Specialist (for Policy Research) and WRI researcher Edriana Nurdin (for Gendersensitive Research Method). The course was in the right time of refining policy research design and preparing the research instruments that all grantees did. 2.1.4. Support the establishment of a Policy Research Network and its Secretariat.
34
As part of ProRep’s support for strengthening public policy research, ProRep facilitated the establishment of a Policy Research Network (PRN). In the short term, this initiative is designed to complement the Policy Research Grants awarded by ProRep, and in the longer term it is expected the network will further strengthen grantee research institutions’ capacity to conduct and disseminate policy-relevant research and analysis on key policy and governance issues. ProRep facilitated the establishment of PRN through a series of one-on-one consultations with PRG grantees, in-depth assessment by Leonid Polishchuk and a meeting on Wednesday 13 January 2013 where the anonymous agreement of PRN establishment was made. Medelina Hendityo of CSIS express her vies At that meeting, it was also agreed by the five founding members that for the long on the first meeting where Policy Research run the network is expected to be open for every research institution but in the Grant grantees agreed to establish Policy interim, in order to build a strong foundation, the network will first be managed Research Network. by the five members. It was agreed on January 13 that, given their experience in nurturing network and their resources, CSIS would serve as the first PRN Secretariat. Subsequently, CSIS prepared the first six months workplan of the network. However, on July 16, 2013 CSIS decided to return the mandate in hosting the PRN secretariat to the network due to delays that caused conflicting schedule between PRN and CSIS own research activities. On July 18, 2013 the five members met and decided that LPEM FEUI would take over as Secretariat for the next six months. They continued to work on the workplan that prepared by CSIS. On August 29 2013, a grant for PRN was signed and the secretariat at LPEM can securely move on to implement the initial workplan. As of October there have been two meetings. The network agreed on two strategic focuses, namely the strategic activities for the next six month as well as the network organizational and decision making structure. To support the development of the PRN, ProRep conducted a study visit to the United States so that the members of the PRN could learn from the experiences of US-based policy research organizations and networks on overcoming their challenges and capitalizing on their strengths in order to sustain their presence and enhance their influence with policy makers. In pursuit of
PROREP THIRD ANNUAL REPORT
this objective, ProRep brought members of the PRN on a study visit to United States from June 24-29, 2013. The network delegates participating in the visit were Vid Adrison of LPEM, Wiyanto of PPPI, Edriana of WRI, Philips Vermonte of CSIS, Sukasmanto of IRE, Shafiah Fifi Muhibat of CSIS, and Agus Loekman of ProRep as the facilitator of the trip. During the visit, delegates met and exchanged ideas with senior researchers of research institutions and with policymakers: -
The senior researchers of the Urban Institute;
-
Center on Budget & Policy Priorities - Mr. Joel Friedman (Vice President)
-
International Center on Research on Women – Ms. Suzanne Petroni (Senior Director), Ms. Stella Mukasa (Senior Researcher)
-
House of Representatives (US Congress) – Rep. Price and Mr. Asher Hildebrand (Staffer), Ms. Jessica Lee (Staffer – Rep. McDermott)
-
Library of Congress – Mr. Ben Dolven (Asian Affairs Specialist, Congressional Research Service), Mr. Ronald O’Rourke (Naval Affairs Specialist, Congressional Research Service),
-

-
Brookings Institution – Mr. William Galston (Senior Fellow Governance Studies)
-
USAID – Mr. Keith Schulz (Governance Advisor)
-
House Democracy Partnership of the US House of Representatives – Mr. John Lis (former Director)
Participants considered the observational study visit useful and inspiring for their daily management of their think tank/research organization; and the Urban Institute as the host of the visit considered the delegation members were engaging individuals which made the discussions interesting. All participants took away some lessons for PRN development as it confirmed in a series of conversations afterwards. KRA 2.3: Research institutions’ research more relevant to and having more influence on legislative policymaking 2.1.5. Support the Preparation of DPR Academic Paper.
35
In order to contribute to the realization of legislative processes that are more effective, transparent, and represent the interests of the people, ProRep provided support to the House of Representatives in preparing and developing Academic Paper and the corresponding bills of Amending Bill to Law No. 39 Year 1999 on Human Rights and Bill on Social Development in the Business Sector (Corporate Social Responsibility).
PROREP THIRD ANNUAL REPORT
The terms of reference and the draft of memorandum has been prepared, and the MOU is still under final review of DPR Secretary General Office. ProRep provides support in a package of three different but interconnected activities, namely policy fellows course for DPR’s legal drafters, appointing independent consultant to help the teams of legal drafters in preparing the two academic papers and bills, and the sponsoring of two public consultations for each bill. The two and a half day Policy Fellows Course for DPR’s legal drafters was held in Serpong, from July 26-28, 2013. It was attended by 27 legislative drafters of the Office of the Deputy Secretary General of DPR, one consultant supporting the preparation of the bill of the amendment of human rights law, one representative of who will support the preparation of the bill of corporate social responsibility, one resource person from CECTS University of Trisakti, and three trainers and seven ProRep staff. Of the 27 participants, 11 are female and 16 are male. Overall, 18 in attendance were female and 16 attendance were male. The trainers for the PFC were Chas Cadwell, Leonid Polishchuk, and John Lis. Indri Saptaningrum, a consultant who supported the preparation of amendment Leonid Polishchuk presenting the of human rights law, also presented his views on the current status of human comparative data of the development of democracy and economic development as rights protection and violation as well as its policy issues. a basis for policy impact evaluation in As of October 2013, the preparation of the academic amendment of human Policy fellows Course for DPR’s Legislation rights law is in the final stage, while the preparation of bill of corporate social Drafters, 26 – 28 July 2013. responsibility is still underway. SIGNIFICANT ACCOMPLISHMENTS / LESSONS LEARNED Each of the five Policy Research Grant research projects is relevant to the DPR’s National Legislation Program (Prolegnas) 2013. Grantees are still completing their research programs, but the work will continue to be relevant into the next year (the last MD3 Law, for example, was amended in the final month of the last parliament). According to grantees, the mentoring assistance provided by ProRep is the element of the program they find most helpful. It will be important to continue this component of the program into the next round. For the most part, grantees are on time in conducting their research projects. As we had hoped, shifting from standard to fixed obligation grants (FOGs) has made it easier for grantees to complete their projects. ProRep learned while implementing the grants that initial reporting requirements set were more than we or the grantees really needed, so we plan to reduce them a bit more to allow researchers to focus more on the substance of their research.
36
PROREP THIRD ANNUAL REPORT
ProRep support to the DPR in preparing Academic Papers on legislation has caught up with the DPR’s calendar in preparing the amendment of Human Right Law’s academic paper and bill. Our assistance could have had greater impact if our consultant had joined the DPR’s legal drafting team earlier in the process. Should ProRep provide similar support in the future, we will seek to be involved at an earlier stage. The Policy Research Network has the potential to build the public policy researcher community through facilitating the exchange of new ideas, through the use and expansion of its peer review function, and through the sharing of specific skills for conducting policy research (research methods, communicating research findings, etc.). In the long run, the network can be expanded to serve a broader membership.

Component 3: Supporting more effective, responsive and transparent legislative processes ProRep conducted an aggressive program of activities with the DPR and DPD over the October 2012 – September 2013 work plan period. The Project collaborated closely with BAKN, BALEG, and the Secretaries Generals of the DPR and DPD and conducted a number of activities in partnership with each. In nearly every case, these activities were conducted in response to DPR or DPD requests and were planned and delivered in partnership with them. The Secretaries General, particularly the DPR Secretary General, requested that ProRep assistance be provided under an MOU between the Secretary General and USAID. The draft MOU is now in the final phase of revision. Finally, ProRep’s activities with the DPR were designed to support the DPR achieving the objectives of the DPR “Strategic Plan of the House of Representatives Republic of Indonesia, 2010 – 2014.” PIR 3: MORE EFFECTIVE, RESPONSIVE, AND TRANSPARENT LEGISLATIVE PROCESSES KRA 3.1: DPR members more aware of and better able to represent constituency interests ACTIVITY ACHIEVEMENTS/REMARKS 3.1.1. Assist DPR This activity was scheduled in Year 2 but moved to our Year 3 work-plan. While the Secretary General wishes to receive this to improve its public assistance, the Head of the Public Complaints Division of the DPR has advised ProRep that we can proceed with the activity only complaint/ after the Secretary General has signed the MOU with USAID, which is now at the final phase of revision. aspiration response In the meantime, the Public Complaints Division agreed to start the STTA for feasibility study in November 2013. system Related activities planned under this component, for example, an FGD and workshop to seek public input regarding a more effective public complaints handling mechanism, will be conducted after the MOU is signed. 3.1.2. National seminar on the fair sharing of resource extraction revenues between central and local governments (fiscal balance)
38
This activity was conducted on October 11, 2012 in the Plenary Hall of DPD. It brought together officials from the central government (Minister of Energy and Natural Resources, Minister of Forestry, Minister of Justice of Human Rights), heads of a number of local authorities from provinces rich in natural resources (including the Governors of Central Kalimantan, East Kalimantan and North Sumatera), and prominent academics to discuss the issue and try to formulate win-win solutions to sharing extractive industries revenues.
The seminar concluded that the provinces and districts rich in extractive and natural resources should receive a higher percentage of revenues obtained from the industries exploiting the resources in their territories. It was recognized, however, that a major portion of the revenues must still go to the central government as required by the constitution.
The increased percentages to be dedicated to subnational governments should be calculated considering several factors, among them, the population of the province and within the local authorities. University academics would contribute to developing the

income distribution formula.
To change the current situation, the DPD should prepare an academic paper and draft Bill to amend Law 33/2003 and submit it to the DPR.
KRA 3.2: More informed, efficient, and responsive lawmaking ACTIVITY ACHIEVEMENTS/REMARKS 3.2.1 Legislative This activity was implemented in Surabaya on September 28-30 2013. drafting training for It was included in ProRep’s Year 2 work plan, but implemented in the final days of expert staff of DPR the Year 1 work plan period and was, therefore, reported in ProRep’s Second commissions Annual Report (See page 21 of ProRep Second Annual Report).
3.2.2 Training on budget impact analysis and regulatory impact analysis for legal
39
The training was conducted by Jimly’s School of Law and Government (JLSG), an independent institute founded by Prof. Jimly Asshidiqy, a former Chief of Justice of the Constitutional Court. JLSG pooled leading experts in legal drafting and other relevant disciplines in Indonesia to serve as resource persons for the training.
This was ProRep’s first event to be officially opened by the DPR Secretary General (Nining Indra Saleh) who expressed her recognition of and support to ProRep (this despite the project’s lack of recognition from the House Speaker).
Prof. Jimly Ashidiqy, former Chief of Justice and founder of JLSG, gave a talk at the Legislative Drafting Training for Expert Staff of DPR Commissions.
It was also ProRep’s first event attended by USAID Acting Deputy Director, Nancy Fisher Gormley, who spoke at the opening.
Unlike many such programs, JLSG’s training programs are certified and endorsed by the Ministry of Justice and Human Rights.
35 expert staff members of commissions participated in the training, and they are applying what they learned. In the past, when commission expert staff members asked DPR legal drafters to prepare bills for their commissions, they generally handed off this work to the drafters. But now, rather than simply handing requests to the bill drafters, these expert staff members are active members of teams of drafters, researchers, and experts involved in preparing bills for their commissions.
This training for the DPR was conducted in Bandung, West Java February 1-3, 2013 in response to a request from the Deputy Secretary General on Legislation of the DPR who recognized the need for his legal drafters and expert staff to be equipped to conduct budget and fiscal impact analysis and to draft fiscal notes for legislation. (Note that Law No. 12/2011 on the lawmaking process requires that proposed legislation be accompanied by budget and fiscal impact notes, but this provision of the law had

not been implemented).
ProRep invited Brad Williams and Peter Schaafsma, two former Senior Analysts of the State of California’s Legislative Analyst’s Office, to share their knowledge, skills and extensive experiences with the 52 DPR staff consisting of legal drafters, experts, and senior officials.
Staff members who participated in the training have begun to apply what they learned and are developing fiscal notes – or at least sections addressing fiscal impact - as part of the academic papers they prepare for draft bills in the DPR.
Considering that DPD also proposes legislation and at the request of the DPD, ProRep had Williams and Schaafsma deliver the same training to 30 staff of the DPD. The training for DPD staff was conducted on February 6-7, 2013 in the DPD.
To obtain the greatest benefit from the visiting experts, and to facilitate greater interaction across ProRep’s components, the project facilitated an additional workshop in which the two international experts shared the concept of legislative budget and fiscal impact analysis with 16 researchers and CSO activists in the ProRep office on January 31, 2013.
The needs assessment was conducted late September and early October 2012.
Senny Widjaja, an IT Specialist, travelled to Jakarta to assess the existing legislative information system of the DPR. The consultant report recommended the following: -
Change management (CM) Support. CM is virtually non-existence in the existing P3DI effort, yet it is one of the most critical elements for the DPR to succeed in developing its new information system. A CM expert is needed to help the Bureau of Law more successfully plan and execute the program to develop a new legislative information system.
-
Cost. It is estimated the CM business analyst will spend on average about 2-3 hours per day to provide the CM support for the length of the project. It is recommended that someone – perhaps an external resource person – play this role.
-
Change LIS Industry Best Practice Consulting. Since P3DI is not an expert in the tasks of envisioning, planning, designing, developing, operating and maintaining a Legislative Information System, outside consultants might help the P3DI technical team members further develop capabilities in producing an industry standard LIS.
-
IT Equipment Support. The current P3DI server is not sufficient for hosting the enterprise level (large scale robust) LIS required. Currently, one server in P3DI environment is hosting multiple complex database driven applications. This is not a good IT practice and poses a high risk of system failure. Considering LIS is an enterprise class (large scale and robust) webbased application with large body users, a dedicated server(s) is absolutely needed to ensure system reliability, availability and scalability.

The training for DPR Researchers was conducted in Bogor, West Java on May 3-5, 2013.
It was provided as a follow-on to a visit by William Robinson and Francis T. Miko, two former senior researchers of the US Congressional Research Service (CRS) and HDP consultants, to the DPR and DPD secretariat generals. In August 2012, ProRep consultants Mr. Robinson and Mr. Miko conducted a short needs analysis regarding the legislative research capacity buildings in both Houses. They found that DPR Researchers and DPD staff needed to improve their skills in conducting legislative research and policy analysis. William Robinson, former CRS Director, led DPR researchers focus on academic research and writing for journals because a training on Legislative Research Analysis their performance is rated on their numbers of publications. As DPR to DPR and DPD Researchers. researchers, their main duties should be to write analyses for MPs and committees. Consequently, there is a disconnection between how their performance is measured and the research products MPs and committees need them to produce.
Mr. Robinson and Mr. Miko trained 40 DPR researchers based in the Centre for Research and Data and Information Processing (P3DI) on how to conduct step by step legislative research and writing policy analysis for MPs.
Using their many years of experience as CRS researchers, Mr. Robinson and Mr. Miko introduced practical knowledge and led group and individual exercises using cases relevant to Indonesian policy-makers, for example banning tobacco products and providing social security for the poor.
The skills taught in the workshop are being applied by DPR researchers. Subsequent to their training they have worked with expert staff of 11 DPR commissions to write policy papers on the issues of concern to commission leaders, and a number reported that the training helped them to prepare better policy analysis papers for the MPs.
To make optimal use of the of Mr. Robinson and Mr. Miko’s assignment, ProRep also provided the very same training to 28 staff of two newly established DPD research centers, namely the Center for Policy and Legal Studies and the Center for Regional Studies in Bogor on May 6-8, 2013. These two DPD research centers did not actually conduct research or write policy analysis for their members, rather they outsourced their work to universities and external research centers.
DPD staff members have said that they have applied their new skills in their current duties. They are now beginning to act as

“research brokers” who not only use the products submitted by the external sources, but also analyze, summarize, rewrite and present their own version of policy analysis to the DPD Members.
ProRep also facilitated the two international experts sharing their modules in a workshop with independent research institutes, CSOs, and DPR experts on May 2, 2013 in Jakarta, one day before they departed to Bogor for the above two trainings. Participants discussed together the challenges CSOs, research institutions, and the DPR face as they seek to work together, and ways to engage in greater collaboration.
KRA 3.3: More effective and transparent budget analysis and oversight ACTIVITY ACHIEVEMENTS/REMARKS 3.3.1 Support This assistance to BAKN began in October 2012 with recruiting two local consultants, one a legal drafter and the other an BAKN in expert in budget oversight, to diagnose factors hindering BAKN from performing effectively and suggest solutions. formulating an They developed an academic paper and a draft bill on the amendment to the MD3 Law, both aimed at strengthening BAKN. academic paper for the amendment of BAKN formally adopted the academic paper and the draft bill, and with ProRep the MD3 Law, and support, presented the draft bill in public hearings in Surabaya-East Java, conduct public Padang-West Sumatera, and Manado-North Sulawesi to seek input from the hearings on this academics and CSOs regarding ways to improve it. issue BAKN then submitted the academic paper and draft bill to the Legislation Council (BALEG) for consideration.
42
Of the six articles proposed by the BAKN, four were adopted by BALEG, i.e., (1) increase the number of BAKN Members from nine to fifteen, (2) increase the number of BAKN expert staff commensurate with the increase in BAKN Membership, (3) specify the qualifications of experts for BAKN (e.g., including, in additional to accountants, experts in law, economics, etc., able to follow-up on BPK program audits); and (4) give the BAKN power to directly request (rather than to make the request through committees) BPK to conduct certain investigative audits. These will significantly increase the power and capacity of BAKN in conducting an effective legislative oversight.

This activity also contributed to the achievement of KRA 3.4 (see below).
While conducting the public hearings in the three locations, BAKN also used the time to conduct follow up of BPK audit

findings concerning the three public universities in the areas, Airlangga University, Andalas University, and Sam Ratulangi University. These follow-up meetings aimed to verify BPK’s audit findings, and brought BPK as the auditor and the universities as the auditees to the same forum. This new practice was a lesson learned from the ProRep-sponsored BAKN study visit to the public account committees of the UK and the Netherland Parliaments conducted during the previous project year. 3.3.2 Support BAKN to conduct budget oversight workshop for provincial DPRDs
43
This activity consisted of a series of three similar workshops conducted respectively in East Java, South Sumatera and South Sulawesi within the period of February - April 2013.
BAKN receives more than 1,600 BPK audit reports annually, including the audit BPK reports regarding local governments. With just nine Members and five expert staff, the BAKN must prioritize central government reports, leaving local governments without legislative oversight. Through this series of workshops, BAKN sought to build awareness in local DPRDs of the importance of overseeing local governments’ budgets and to encourage DPRDs to take more active roles in following up BPK’s audit reports concerning their local administrations.
To help convince the DPRDs, BAKN also invited The Supreme Audit Board (BPK) and the Development Finance Audit Agency (BPKP) to present in those workshops along with BAKN.
The workshops convinced local DPRDs of the need to establish public account committees at the local levels in order to conduct legislative oversights as evidenced by the visits of several DPRDs to BAKN to learn more about the procedures. The workshops also revealed that, regardless of DPRDs’ willingness, the process of establishing BAKNs at the local level would be a long and bureaucratic effort because the DPRDs had to first advocate the amendment of a regulation to the Minister of Home Affairs.
To accelerate the process, the DPRDs suggested that BAKN propose a new article in the amendment of MD3 Law which authorizes the establishment of BAKN in the DPRDs and Members of BAKN agreed to communicate with and obtain commitments from their Party Caucuses.
To make use of BAKN time during the visits to those provinces, BAKN also conducted oversight visits to follow up BPK’s audit reports concerning one government institution and six state-owned enterprises in East Java, South Sumatera and South Sulawesi. Through these meetings, BAKN verified BPK’s audit findings by directly asking explanations to the auditees. BAKN required the BPK and BPKP to be present in those meetings. As the auditor, BPK had to respond to the explanations offered by the auditees. BPKP, the government agency in charge of building the capacity of state institutions/companies in order to have

sound financial management and reporting, was required to identify measures it would take to help auditees strengthen inadequate systems. These verification meetings are a new practice BAKN learned from the study visit to the PACs of the UK and the Netherland Parliaments. 3.3.3 Support BAKN in helping leaders of DPR commissions and Fraksi (party caucuses) understand the budget oversight contributions of BAKN
Even though it was planned to be implemented much earlier, this event was finally conducted on June 20, 2013 in Jakarta. BAKN decided to wait until it had sufficient evidence to present so that the commissions would seriously consider its recommendations before conducting the event (until very recently, DPR commissions and party caucuses have often neglected BAKN’ recommendations).
The event was conducted in the form of a public discussion addressing the topic of “saving public money” to ensure greater accountability of public funds. Through its oversight activities, BAKN had found that pervasive corrupt practices in government ministries/institutions required more than just legislative oversight by BAKN, but a concerted effort among all the relevant stakeholders, ranging from commissions, party caucuses, DPD, government inspectorate generals, BPK, law enforcement agencies (KPK, AGO, the Police, the Court) and CSOs. BAKN saw the need to obtain support from all those stakeholders in performing its functions.
82 participants representing all of the groups mentioned above attended the forum;
BAKN invited a number of resource persons from the BPK, KPK, an Inspector General, and CSOs to present their ideas and efforts in eradicating and preventing corruption.
BAKN also used the forum to present its oversight findings from the previous two years and asked for commitments from all participants, including those from DPR commissions and party caucuses, to join hands with BAKN in saving the public money from being misused.
Through this event, and its other work, ProRep has assisted BAKN to become part of Indonesia’s community of accountability, so that the DPR is viewed not as a corrupt institution, but rather as a force actively engaged in fighting corruption.
3.3.4 Assist BAKN to disseminate budget oversight findings and recommendations to public
This event was conducted on January 17, 2013 in Jakarta and was designed to increase public knowledge of BAKN and its strategic roles and functions. BAKN held the event because the public still knew very little about BAKN and its functions, despite its growing list of achievements. Using ProRep support, BAKN has improved its capacity significantly and completed a number of major oversight activities over past two years.
44
To draw public and media attention, BAKN conducted the event in the form of public forum addressing the issue of the ineffective internal audit system of the government ministries/institutions allowing widespread corruption in the executive branch.

3.3.5 Training on budget analysis for budget analysts of the DPR Secretariat and staff of the DPD budget office
45
BAKN invited Inspectors General of all government ministries, BPK, BPKP, CSOs, academics from universities and independent research institutes, and journalists to participate in the forum.
Prior to the discussion, BAKN began by disseminating its 2012 Annual Report to the audience.
There were two significant results of the event. First, media coverage of the event provided for greater public knowledge about BAKN and its work. And second, through the event the BAKN secured commitments from participating stakeholders (Inspector Generals, BPK, and BPKP) to join hands to improve the government internal audit system to reduce corruption in their relevant ministries/institutions.
This activity was conducted on May 29 –June 2, 2013 in Bandung and on July 25-28, 2013 in Bogor, both in West Java.
ProRep had originally planned to conduct a training on budget analysis, however, DPR Secretariat General and BAKN requested that Prorep reprioritize building the capacity of 20 newly assigned secretariat general’s staff and 10 BAKN staff assigned to support BAKN’s expert staff in analyzing BPK’s audit reports. The training, therefore, was adjusted to address techniques in analyzing BPK audit reports.
The training was implemented by PPAK, the center for accounting and finance development of the State Accounting University (STAN), the accounting university which trains all government auditors. PPAK-STAN worked closely with BAKN and BPK throughout the process, from planning, to implementation, to evaluation. BAKN’s expert staff and BPK senior auditors were involved both as resource persons and mentors during group work exercises.
The training in Bandung exposed the participants to theories and practical exercises on external audits performed by BPK, types and products of BPK’s audits, audit methods, and techniques for reviewing audit reports.
The training in Bogor was designed as a workshop, with a number of review simulations using real BPK audit products to ensure that the participants gained the expected skills.
These two trainings were endorsed and fully supported by DPR’s Deputy Speaker on finance, economy and oversight, the Chair and Deputy Chairs of BAKN, and the Secretary General, as evidenced by their presence in the training to give their opening and closing remarks.
At the request of the DPD, ProRep modified its planned training program to meet the urgent needs of the House following the March 2013 Constitutional Court decision empowering the DPD to play a greater role in deliberating specific areas of legislation considered by the DPR. The DPD requested that ProRep help prepare its staff members by providing them with a training on legislative drafting;
The training on legislative drafting for DPD staff was conducted in Bogor on July 24-27, 2013 with 28 participants. ProRep
PROREP THIRD ANNUAL REPORT
requested the Association of Professors of Constitutional Court Procedures (APHAMK) to train the DPD staff considering that the association closely works with the Constitutional Court. In addition to a number of prominent university professors in legal drafting, APHAKM also invited two judges of the Constitutional Court to be resource persons in the training to explain the context of the court decision concerning DPD and suggest further actions to DPD to exercise the new power. Additional Activities: 1. Help DPD improve its regional office management
2. FGD to strengthen the nonjurisdictional committees of the DPR through the Amendment of MD3 Law
46
This activity was conducted on April 18-19, 2013 in Bogor, West Java, as a response to the request of DPD Secretary General.
As required by the MD3 Law, DPD has established regional offices in 33 provinces throughout Indonesia. In early 2013, DPD staffed those offices and appointed office heads to lead the new staff. These new office managers were not yet familiar with their new duties, and therefore needed training in constituent relations management, such as receiving and processing constituent concerns and requests, communicating them to their members, and reporting members’ follow-up actions back to the constituents.
ProRep invited a senior expert in constituent relations, Cahyo Suryanto, to serve both as facilitator and resource person. ProRep also invited two researchers of Component 2 grantees (CSIS & IRE) to share their ProRep-grant supported research findings on constituent relations. To train the office heads to serve and communicate with Members of Parliaments, ProRep invited Alvin Lie, former DPR Member, and Ikhsan Loulembah, former DPD Member, to share their views as resource persons.
All 33 Heads of DPD Regional Offices stated that the training contents were very relevant and, therefore, applicable in their new jobs as Heads of DPD regional offices.
The FGD was conducted on July 22-23, 2013 in Bogor and involved both Component 3 and Component 1.
It was attended by 35 participants consisting of BAKN Expert Staff, BALEG Expert Staff, Commission Expert Staff, Party Caucus Expert staff and CSO activists associating themselves into a Coalition of CSOs for State Finance Accountability.
The FGD successfully identified pressing issues and recommendations for strengthening the non-jurisdictional committees, particularly BAKN and BALEG, to enable the DPR to produce better legislation and to conduct more effective public finance oversights.
The FGD resulted in a joint commitment among all participants to support proposals to strengthen BAKN and BALEG through the amendment MD3 Law. DPR Experts agreed to explain the benefits of strengthening these non-jurisdictional

committees to committee and party caucus members, and the CSOs committed to become pressure groups to safeguard the proposed amendment.
3. Supporting BALEG to “socialize” (conduct information gathering and sharing events) on the Law on Lawmaking process
It also successfully established stronger network between DPR Experts and CSOs activists, which will contribute significantly to the future successful policy advocacy efforts by the CSOs to the DPR.
This activity was implemented in September 2013. The events were included in ProRep’s Year 3 workplan and scheduled to be implemented in October and November 2013. However, BALEG requested ProRep to conduct them in September 2013.
The DPR had not previously conducted such law “socialization” events because they used to be the sole responsibility of the government. The 2011 Law on the Lawmaking Process, however, empowered the DPR to conduct such socialization events for new laws. ProRep then helped BALEG design and carry out its first socialization event.
The event was designed as a series of four workshops in several regions of Indonesia, respectively in East Java, Bali, North Sumatera, and South Sulawesi. BALEG chose to socialize Law No. 12/2011 on Lawmaking Process because the Law was initiated and deliberated by BALEG. It was also central to BALEG’s function as the Law Center of the DPR which coordinates the legislative agenda and reviews all draft legislation submitted to the DPR.
Through this program, ProRep successfully developed a model of socialization to be adopted by BALEG to carry out its own subsequent socializations in the future. The workshops also revealed that Law no. 12/2011 on Lawmaking Process cannot be fully implemented by the DPRDs at provincial or district levels due to regulatory conflicts between this law and the Law on Decentralization. The DPRDs, therefore, urged BALEG to find a solution, by amending either the Law on Lawmaking Process or the Law on Decentralization in order to harmonize the two Laws.

KRA 3.4: DPR management and procedural reforms adopted and implemented A number of activities noted above contributed to achieving KRA 3.4. These are Activity 3.3.1., Supporting BAKN to Develop Draft Bill on the Amendment of MD3 Law Concerning BAKN, and Additional Activity 2, FGD to strengthen the non-jurisdictional committees of the DPR through the Amendment of MD3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOMPLISHMENTS / LESSONS LEARNED A number of significant accomplishment of Component 3’s supports to the DPR in this project year are as follows:
Efforts to strengthen BAKN to have more effective oversight performance and stronger oversight performance have resulted in a number of observable impacts: -
BAKN began to exercise effective oversight practices by verifying BPK’s audit reports to the audited institutions.
-
BAKN began to receive greater public and media recognition and began to secure support from CSOs.
-
Better coordination among BAKN, BPK, BPKP, and Inspectorate Generals has been created. This is essential to facilitate concerted efforts among those institutions in ensuring greater accountability of public funds.
-
A strong coalition of CSOs on Public Fund Accountability has been established and now supports the BAKN in performing effective oversight.
-
Public participation in legislative oversight has begun, as evidenced by BAKN’s conducting a formal hearing to consider CSOs findings as input in BAKN oversight activities.
-
Four of the six articles in the Amendment to the MD3 Law proposed by BAKN have been considered and adopted by BALEG. If those articles remain in the new MD3 Law when it is enacted, then BAKN’s role in overseeing public funds will have been strengthened.
BALEG has adopted the model in socializing newly passed Law which was developed and tested through a series of event supported by ProRep as indicated by the decision of BALEG Leadership to allocate a budget for socialization of new laws in the next budget year.
A strong network between DPR Experts (from BALEG, BAKN, commissions, and party caucuses) and CSO activists has been established and this is crucial for successful policy advocacy in the future.
Staff of DPR and DPD Secretariat Generals have been trained in a number of competencies, including legal drafting, legislative research, policy analysis, budget & fiscal impacts analysis, and reviews of BPK’s audit reports. Many of them have stated that they began to implement their skills in their daily work. ProRep could ensure that the transfer of learning has actually occurred by facilitating some pilot implementation activities. ProRep could take additional step to help ensure that those new practices become permanent through working with the secretariats to develop and issue now Standard Operating Procedures or regulatory instruments.

PROREP THIRD ANNUAL REPORT
Component 4: Providing timely assistance for special initiatives needed to protect or advance democratic governance ProRep Component 4, designed to provide timely assistance for special initiatives needed to protect or advance democratic governance, has been used by USAID and by ProRep to support several such initiatives over the past year, and the section below provides details. The largest such initiative under Component 4 is JABAT. The JABAT program is designed to strengthen relations between DPR Members and their constituents by helping Members better understand and respond to the needs of their constituents in the electoral districts. To achieve this objective, JABAT both supports MPs in conducting their recess visit activities and empowers constituents, including selected CSOs in their JABAT electoral districts, to engage with their representatives. The JABAT program fits within the scopes of both Components 3 and 1, and is therefore, managed by both components. JABAT has supported 18 MPs, consisting of 2 MPs per party caucus and from a number of different electoral districts. JABAT is divided into two batches, each participated by 9 MPs. Out of 9 MPs from batch one, 6 MPs continued their participations, whereas 3 others decided to drop out due to various reasons, mainly scheduling conflicts. To have the same proportion of participants between the two batches, ProRep invited 12 MPs to participate in batch two. The project made a number of adjustments to the JABAT program during implementation, and these are also described below. JABAT support to CSOs has been provided through competitive grant mechanism, awarded to three local CSOs and one national CSO: Prakarsa, Aksara, Cakrawala Timur, and Indonesia Budget Center. One more CSO, Garut Government Watch (GGW), has also been selected by ProRep’s Grant Evaluation Committee and is currently under review by USAID. PIR 4: ASSISTANCE FOR SPECIAL INITIATIVES NEEDED TO PROTECT OR ADVANCE DEMOCRATIC GOVERNANCE KRA 4.1.: Indonesian efforts to strategic needs and opportunities affecting democratic governance improved ACTIVITY ACHIVEMENTS/REMARKS 4.1.1 Surveying ProRep conducted the survey for the first batch of JABAT to obtain the baseline data of JABAT, but decided not to conduct the DPR Members and survey for the second batch of JABAT MPs because (1) ProRep already had a clear picture of member-constituent relations from their constituents the first survey and assumed that the second batch would not be very different, and (2) the survey was quite costly, so it was (second round) decided that it would be a better use of funds to support additional recess visit activities. 4.1.2

4.1.3 Providing guidance to DPR Members
ProRep assigned Constituent Relation Liaisons (CRLs) to assist and advise the MPs and their staff in planning, preparing, implementing, documenting, reporting and following up on the recess visits and on constituency relations.
Three of original nine MPs selected did not complete their programs, so ProRep selected a total of 12 MPs to participate in the second batch, seeking to retain two participants per party. This time two MPs, Zulkifliemansyah of PKS and Saleh Husin of Hanura, while initially eager to participate in the program, decided not to conduct their recess activities with JABAT because of their pressing parliamentary and personal agendas. The six remaining MPs from group 1 found the JABAT program so useful that they requested to continue with it, and ProRep agreed to continue with them through the final recess visits, in October/November 2013.
The final group of MPs participating in JABAT program are: -

PROREP THIRD ANNUAL REPORT
MPs of batch one conducted five recess visits and those of batch two conducted two recess visits.
The types of activities MPs conducted during their recess visits with JABAT varied, and included stakeholder meetings, community meetings, radio/TV talk-shows, seminars, trainings, field visits, workshops, and media gatherings.
For the period October 2012 - September 2013 (does not include JABAT events reported on in last year’s annual report), JABAT MPs conducted 144 events, consisting of: -

A total of 10,383 Indonesians participated, 5,080 males and 4,803 females, representing various types of organizations and institutions. 85% represented CSOs, while the remainder came from think tanks, the Government of Indonesia, DPRDs, the media, service providers, and others.
ProRep compiled best practices and lesson learned through the JABAT recess visits for use in JABAT success stories.
This information will be included in a handbook on “effective constituent relations” for MPs. The draft handbook developed by the CRLs is being refined by ProRep consultant Alvin Lie. It is scheduled for publication in November 2013.
This publication is designed to educate constituents about the roles and functions of DPR Members and ways to effectively communicate their concerns and issues to their representatives.
The initial draft of this handbook on “effective representations” for the constituents is being refined and edited by a ProRep consultant and an illustrator is adding pictures. It is scheduled to be published in November 2013.

4.1.8 Assistance to the Indonesia Myanmar Caucus
52
This activity was implemented under Component 1. Please refer to Component 1 section 1.4.1, above.
This assistance was originally planned to provide a website for the MPs. However, as a number of JABAT MPs have built their own websites, we dropped this assistance in order to provide equal treatment to all participating MPs. We added some additional JABAT activities, which are described below.
The US Campaign Study Tour, conducted just prior to the 2012 US presidential election, was an idea initiated by USAID. As ProRep began designing the program we learned that the American Council for Young Political Leaders (ACYPL) was in the process of designing a similar program. ProRep, therefore, partnered with ACYPL to conduct the visit, making some adjustments to the program to target the needs of the Indonesian delegation.
ProRep sent seven Indonesian young leaders, representatives from each of ProRep’s three component areas, to observe the final weeks of 2012 US Presidential campaign and election. The group was lead by ProRep’s CSO Specialist, Ms. Yoenarsih Nazar, and consisted of an Indonesian MP (Ms. Nova Riyanti Yusuf), a party’s expert staff (Mr. Yunandar Eka Perwira), a journalist (Mr. Arfi Bambani Amri), two researchers from universities (Ms. Yolanda Asianna Pandjaitan and Ms. Poppy Sulistyaning Winanti), and two CSO activists (Mr. Sapei Rusin & Ms. Endah Sricahyani Sucipto).
The delegation visited Washington, D.C. and Orlando, Florida and met with campaign division of the Republican and Democratic parties, research institutions, community organizations, media outlets, and an elections supervisor’s office. They also attended rallies of both parties and returned from Florida to Washington, D.C. to observe the election.
The group had brought back to their institutions and their own tasks their first-hand observations on the importance of political fundraising, the meaning of constituency, the use of “black campaigns.” They especially appreciated the discipline and integrity of people working on the campaigns, and the level of transparency in reporting on campaign finance.
Finally, the delegation members benefited from participating in this study tour together, across different program areas.
ProRep implemented this activity in response to and in close coordination with USAID. The program took place in Nusa Dua, Bali and in Jakarta, and coincided with U.S. Representative Jim McDermott’s participation in the 5th Bali Democracy Forum November 8-10, 2012.
ProRep facilitated a preparation meeting to anticipate a peer-to-peer exchange of Indonesian and Myanmar Parliamentarians,

pioneered by MP Eva Kusuma Sundari who served as President of the ASEAN Inter-Parliamentary Myanmar Caucus (AIPMC).
4.1.9 Project MidTerm Evaluation
In addition to the prep meeting, those MPs also met with Rep. McDermott to exchange views on democratization in Indonesia, The United States, and Myanmar. Rep. McDermott also offered a great deal of practical suggestions on how to conduct a peerto-peer exchange based on his own valuable experiences.
Rep. Dermott attended not only the BDF, but also a number of side meetings, including that with the above Indonesian MPs.
The prep meeting produced an action plan containing: steps to be taken to approach Myanmar’s Parliament, types of activities for the exchange, topics to be discussed during the exchange, and possible dates.
Rep. McDermott also led a question and answer breakfast conducted by USAID and ProRep with Indonesian CSOs.
From March 9 to 22, 2013, the Project SAF funded ProRep’s mid-term evaluation, as required in the ProRep contract. The evaluation team consisted of the team leader, Patrick Fn’Piere, an expert on governance and legislative bodies; Richard Holloway, an expert on civil society; and Irfani Darma, an Indonesian development practitioner on governance and civil society programming.
The evaluation team used a three-phase approach to conducting the evaluation. Phase I was a desk review of relevant background documents, ProRep and grantee materials, and project monitoring data. Phase II was fieldwork involving travel to Jakarta, Yogyakarta, and Palembang to meet with individuals associated with ProRep and its partners, as well as outside experts with relevant expertise. Key interviewees included ProRep staff, Members of Indonesia’s Parliament, ProRep program beneficiaries and grantees, USAID (including other relevant USAID implementers), U.S. Embassy staff, other donor representatives, civil society leaders, government officials, and representatives from academia, the media, and other domestic and international non-governmental organizations (NGOs). Phase III was the synthesis and analysis of the compiled date to generate findings, conclusions, and recommendations for USAID/Indonesia, ProRep, and other relevant stakeholders. The evaluators’ key recommendations were that the project should (1) fund the membership function for CSOs in Component1; (2) evaluate application of skills enhanced through ProRep assistance; (3) expand project partners and networks; (4) support research of topics salient to targeted audiences for increased use of research; and (5) increase awareness of relevance of ProRep values and approaches to a broader array of organizations.

The mid-term evaluation was also followed up with a revision to the program’s Performance Monitoring Plan indicator targets. The revision contained adjustments to effectively measure progress toward expected results during the remainder of the contract year. The proposed adjustment was presented to USAID along with the Year 3 Work Plan.
At the request of USAID, ProRep supported this South-South Triangular Cooperation program between the United States and

Indonesia government. The workshop took place on September 13-20, 2013, and organized by the Indonesian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and USAID. USAID Mission Director, Andy Sisson and the Director General for Information and Public Diplomacy, Abdurrahman M. Fachir, opened the workshop. The participants consisted of 19 Ambassadors, MPs, and high level individuals from Sudan, Egypt, Jordan, Yemen, and Somalia.
Several prominent Indonesian experts shared about Indonesia’s experience in the democratic transition, among them, Dr. Ahmad Ridho (Syarif Hidayatullah Islamic State University-Jakarta); Prof. Dr. Azyumardi Azra (Scholar on Islamic issues/former Rector of Syarif Hidayatullah Islamic State University); Prof. Dr. Komaruddin Hidayat (Scholar on Islamic issues/former Rector of Syarif Hidayatullah Islamic State University); Hans Antlov (democracy practitioner and scholar); Prof. Dr. Masykuri Abdillah (Scholar on Islamic issues); Dr. Muhammad Hariyadi (Scholar in Islamic issues); and Dr. I Ketut Putra Erawan (Executive Director, the Institute for Peace & Democracy-IPD). The event provided an opportunity for Indonesia to share its experience in the process of building democracy and to and its commitment to play an active role in supporting democracy in the Middle East. ProRep provided logistical and financial support for this program.
At USAID’s request, ProRep was pleased to provide support for this seminar. In addition to support from ProRep, this event was also supported by the Ford Foundation and the Partnership for Governance Reform.
The seminar and congress were held in Jakarta on September 23-25, 2013. 20 national CSOs were invited and in addition 70 members of the CSO Council (Konsil LSM) from 15 provinces (Aceh, North Sumatera, Riau, West Sumatera, Bengkulu, Jambi, South Sumatera, Jakarta, Central Java, Yogyakarta, East Java, West Kalimantan, South Sulawesi, South-East Sulawesi, and East Nusa Tenggara - NTT) attended.
The program discussed the impact of the implementation of Law No. 17/2013 to CSOs and what CSOs need to prepare in relation to it and the reality and challenges CSOs face in dealing with internal accountability issues. The Organizing Committee of the CSO Council that had made this important event a success consisted of Ms. Lusi Herlina (Chair of Council); Ms. Serlyeti Pulu (Team Leader); Ms. Helena Dewi Justicia (PIC for Journal & website); Ms. Sari Sarwati (Operations); Ms. Catherine Nielsen (PIC for Information Centre); Mr. Rizki Nurdiansyah (PIC for Proceedings); Mr. Nurmadiah Situmorang (PIC for Proceedings); and, Ms. Fitriani Sunarto (Note taker).

JABAT Kick off Meeting
The meeting was attended by 8 JABAT MPs, I.E., Sumarjati Arjoso, Yahya Sacawiria, Nuryasin, Tetty Kadi Bawono, Arwani Thomafi, Saleh Husin, Soemintarsih Muntoro, and Dewi Coryati. In addition, MP staffers, Kemitraan’s staff, Craig Hall (US Embassy), William P. Tuchrello (U.S. Library of Congress), and Miles F. Toder (USAID).
Miles Toder delivered opening remarks, and the meeting was facilitated by Alvin Lie, former MPs and former Parliamentary Specialist of ProRep.
The dinner provided JABAT MPs with an opportunity to share their successes, ask questions, and provide feedback to ProRep. First batch MPs requested that they be allowed to continue in the JABAT program for additional visits. Given their strong interest, ProRep was able to accommodate them and continue to support batch one JABAT MPs for additional visits.
The dinner also helped strengthen relations among MPs, USAID, the Department of State, and ProRep.
The meeting was conducted prior to the start of the second round of JABAT visits and was designed to provide new CRLs and MP expert staff with a comprehensive understanding of JABAT.
It also provided a forum for CRLs and batch 2 JABAT MP staff of JABAT to get to know each other and to plan their next recess activities with JABAT.
Finally, the program facilitated sharing among CRLs and MP staff from both batches.
JABAT has contracted with a professional video-company to produce a 10-15 minute long video capturing impacts of MP recess visit activities supported by JABAT. The video-maker has filmed MP recess visits in four electoral districts and will film two more recess visits in November. This video is scheduled to be completed in early December and to be distributed to MPs, political parties, USAID, and other stakeholders to share the best practices of recess visit activities.

PROREP THIRD ANNUAL REPORT
SIGNIFICANT ACCOMPLISHMENTS / LESSONS LEARNED JABAT accomplishments can be measured based on the extent to which the MPs hear their constituents’ aspirations and uses them as inputs in performing their functions as DPR Members – to debate over budget, to enact legislation and to conduct oversight of government. In most cases, however, constituents expect the MPs to provide quick solutions for their problems. When an MP is able to help find solution by directly supporting the constituents or mediating the constituents with relevant government agencies, therefore, should also be measured as accomplishments. As of October 2013, ProRep documented a number of impacts from JABAT initiatives, including:
A change of MP’s paradigm about constituent relations. Some MPs participating in JABAT still saw recess visit activities not as instruments to gather aspirations. They were often very pragmatic and only used the recess visit activities to secure votes for the next election. They, therefore, avoided dialogues with constituents and chose to conduct non-substantive mass gathering activities such as conducting sport competitions, fun bike, art performance, etc. Having participated in JABAT, those MPs have changed their paradigm about constituent relation. They are now willing to hold dialogues with their constituents and hear their aspirations. The prolonged, hands-on assistance provided by the CRLs has helped them actually change the ways they conduct recess visits.
MP. Teguh Juwarno talks with villagers in the rice fields in Brebes district, West Java, to hear their aspirations.
MP’s recess visit management and activities are improved. Most MPs conducted their recess visit activities through their party formal networks by distributing staple food packages, souvenirs with party attributes on them, etc. CRLs have successfully piloted various community meetings with the MPs and staff without utilizing their party networks and all party atributes and charities. The MPs and their staff have begun to adopt the strategies suggested by the CRLs indicating that transfers of skills from the CRLs to MPs staff were occuring.
MPs increased the numbers and kinds of constituents with which they communicate. Almost all of the MPs participating in JABAT have successfully moved beyond the kinds of constituents and groups with which they usually meet. The CRLs encouraged them to use their recess period to conduct activities with new contituents (such as farmers, salt farmers, and fisherfolk).
Stronger relations between constituents and their representatives. MPs participating in JABAT program declared that they could build trustworthy and stronger relations with their constituents, not based on financial transactions. In addition, ProRep observed established networks between MPs, CRLs, Staff, and CSOs and constituents in the electoral districts, which can be sustained for future relations. One indicator of this change is that constituents now send text messages to MP Teguh Juwarno directly, and several more CSOs have direct access to MPs and their staffs. MP Dewi Coryati, who previously avoided meeting with youth groups because she feared they would ask for

MP. Eva K. Sundari has a dialogue with small rice mill owners to discuss their troubled micro business.
scholarships and other handouts, now has the confidence to regularly meet with young people on her constituent visits.
Change of paradigm of constituents about engagement with their representatives. Previously, many MPs were reluctant to meet constituents because the constituents saw MPs as Santa Claus who brought a lot of gifts, money, and charities to spread around. The JABAT program has slowly changed the way the constituents perceive their representatives. Facilitated by the CRLs and CSO grantees, many constituents began to focus on identifying their pressing problems and communicating them to the MPs for sustainable solutions. Ibu Eva K. Sundari had contact with a wider group of constituents than most MPs, but JABAT has allowed her to expand her contact to new groups, such rice mill owners, and market traders. One clear indicator of this change is that in the recent Evaluation and Planning Meeting CRLs and expert staff of MPs switched roles. In the past, CRLs planned these visits. This time, MP expert staff planned the recess visits with CRL guidance,
Success stories are identified and documented. JABAT has been able to document success stories from JABAT program that were packaged in the forms of newlsetter and, later, handbooks and short videos. ProRep will be prepared to share these materials with Members of the new DPR, enabling newly elected MPs to make use of experiences of current MPs.
The ProRep Component 4 Special Activities Fund has been shown to be an effective tool in quickly responding to USAID’s requests. Providing rapid support for the International Workshop on Democracy, ProRep was able to take part in a strategic initiative of the US-Indonesian’s South-South Triangular Cooperation. ProRep is prepared to respond quickly and effectively to future requests as well.

PROREP THIRD ANNUAL REPORT
IV. Problems, ongoing, constraints, remedial actions ProRep continued to deal with two problems raised in last year’s annual report. One was resolved this year (inadequate engagement with partners), and one continues to be a challenge (lack of official recognition by the DPR). Other issues ProRep dealt with were the need to adjust ProRep’s grants/activities funding balance, and challenges associated with grant making administration.
4.1. Challenges related to the lack of official recognition by the DPR The project still has not met with, or been recognized by DPR Speaker Marzuki Ali, and there was no change in his policy prohibiting his staff from working with international organizations. In practice, the major impact this has had on our work has been to make us cautious in the way we share information on our program and to steer clear of activities that might involve the Speaker. The project works closely with both members and staff, and virtually all of our activities with the DPR are conducted at their request. ProRep conducted several activities with the staff of the Secretary General, including trainings on legislative drafting, legislative research, developing fiscal notes for legislation, assisting the BAKN in analyzing BPK reports, and more. ProRep’s relationships with the BAKN and BALEG have been strong and very active. Our program with the DPR over the course of this year was robust, the Secretary General or her deputies have opened a number of our trainings, and DPR demand for ProRep support is greater than available funding. At this writing, USAID was finalizing an MOU with the DPR Secretary General’s office concerning project cooperation.
4.2. Inadequate engagement with project partners Another problem addressed in last year’s annual report was inadequate engagement with project partners – particularly with the Urban Institute and with Kemitraan. These were effectively resolved. ProRep has invested a good deal of effort in working closely with Urban Institute. The Urban Institute’s hosting the June PRN study tour to Washington and mentoring of grantees has allowed for more frequent and fruitful engagements. As noted last year, relations with Kemitraan improved markedly after ProRep shifted responsibility for most of the JABAT program to them. This presented a new problem, however. It was difficult for Kemitraan to deliver on some aspects of JABAT. ProRep’s Chief of Party met with Kemitraan’s director about this issue, and we later found a win-win solution. Kemitraan was doing well with the very important work their CRLs were doing with JABAT MPs, but other aspects of the program were languishing. At the request of batch 1 JABAT MPs, ProRep agreed to continue working with those MPs until the November 2013 visit, and Kemitraan CRLs continued to support them.
4.3. Grants/Activities funding balance and grants expenditures As ProRep was preparing its year 3 work plan it was apparent that the project would not be able to spend grant funds allocated for our Component 3 parliamentary work. Signing grant agreements with the DPR, given the Speaker’s unwillingness to recognize the project, was problematic. At the same time, DPR demand for training and other assistance was very strong. ProRep requested, and USAID kindly agreed to adjust the allocation of funds for grants and other programmatic activities in early 2013 The pace of grants implementation continued to be a challenge to the project over the year, so ProRep made several adjustments. We are reducing some reporting requirements for Component 2 grantees. We were, in
58
PROREP THIRD ANNUAL REPORT
effect, requiring grantees to “double-report” on activities (i.e. reporting after the activity, and reporting again in quarterly reports). ProRep is now in the process of reducing the number of reports required by Component 2 grantees, which will reduce both their reporting, and ProRep’s oversight workloads. The most significant change was appointing Operations Manager Noelle Veltze to take overall responsibility for the grants program. She has strengthened the program, instituted new standards and followed up closely with each of grants teams to ensure better performance on grants. Since mid-January she has overseen the grants program in coordination with the Chief of Party.

Notes Seknas Fitra and ISAI Seknas Fitra, Prakarsa, YSKK, HAPSARI, ASPPUK, InProSuLA, Prakarsa, Aksara and IBC.
Over the year nine Component 1 grantees engaged members of parliament in their activities and made policy and/or implementation recommendations: Seknas Fitra, Prakarsa, YSKK, HAPSARI, ASPPUK, InProSuLA, Prakarsa, Aksara and IBC. Seknas Fitra promotes transparency and accountability in the budgeting process by strengthening the budgetary and supervisory role of the national House of Representative (DPR) in the electoral district of West Java IV, East Java III and South Sumatera I. They reported arranging technical discussions with and making policy recommendations to one MP who represented West Java IV. Prakarsa, a collaborator with CSO PIAR, strengthens engagement between local CSOs and policy makers to improve the effectiveness of maternity insurance for the poor in East Nusa Tenggara. In December 2012, Prakarsa arranged for a public dialogue and discussed how to address the maternity issues with Herman Herry – MP represented East Nusa Tenggara. The event will be attended by DPRD Province level and several local CSOs. YSKK discussed with two MPs of Commission X the result of the community based monitoring of education support fund. HAPSARI engaged in dialogue on national budgets for micro, small and medium enterprises for women at the Parliament building on March 30, 2013. At the national level, HAPSARI engaged with 9 members of parliament10 and 2 members of DPD. In their activities, HAPSARI also involved the local parliaments in Kulon Progo11, Serdang Bedagai and Deli Serdang12.

Asosiasi Pendamping Perempuan Usaha Kecil (ASPPUK) conducted a number of activities during this period (as shown in the participant data tracking) including national and local consolidation meetings, constituency meetings between grassroots women’s groups and national and local MPs, and dialogues/hearings with national and local MPs on the subject of supporting a small business development program for women. ASPPUK cooperated with several MPs, namely Aria Bima (Commission VI), Karolin Margaret Natasha and Nasir Jamil from the Ministry of Child and Women’s Empowerment. At the local level, ASPPUK also involved DPRD and local government working units in three areas13. InProSuLA aims to increase farmer groups’ representation in the food security policy and the budget process and is oriented toward strengthening food community systems. InProSuLA engaged especially with Dr. H. Djuwarto, member of Commission IV of DPR RI (agriculture and forestry) and other policy makers including related ministries and local government units. The other three CSOs are from JABAT areas. Prakarsa supports constituent relations of Malik Haramain (MP from the electoral district of East Java II). Prakarsa aims to pursue transformative awareness, strengthen civil society and independent societal organizations, and improve the quality of public participation in democratic public policies. Aksara works with Sumarjati Arjoso (MP from the electoral district of Central Java III). Aksara’s objective is to bridge relations between the constituents and members of Parliament and initiate discussions to find solutions to women-related issues such as poverty among women. It worked with MP Arjoso and others on these issues. IBC works with Teguh Juwarno (MP from the electoral district of Central Java IX).

Notes Through the implementation of QStaR grant. Through the implementation of PRG and PRN
Component 2 grantees were still completing their research at the end of the fiscal year so did not have completed research products to disseminate to parliament members during the year. Several, however, conducted a number of meetings and in-depth interviews with MPs in the course of their research – in some cases gathering data from them and sharing initial findings, observations and recommendations. We have chosen, therefore, to report these meetings and information sharing activities in our indicators. As noted in the Component 2 section of this report, LPEM, WRI and IRE have conducted interviews with several MPs. Over the period LPEM’s researchers conducted the following research activities: (a) in-depth interviews with DPR Members of Commission II, IV, VII and (b) first field research for in-depth interviews with DPD. In the next quarter, WRI and CSIS will present their initial findings to MPs through similar interviews. Women’s Research Institute (WRI) is conducting research on the role of female Members of Parliament in Indonesia and the Gender Equality Bill. WRI has advanced in preparing and conducting the first series of in-depth interviews with 24 (18 female and 6 male) DPR Members from 9 parties. (Please see the WRI response sheet below). During Q4 of FY 2013, IRE gathered qualitative data by interviewing five DPD Members from two research areas: Province of Yogyakarta and East Kalimantan: GKR Hemas (Deputy Speaker / DPD Member - Yogyakarta), K.H. Muslihuddin and Awang F. Hidayat (both DPD Members from East Kalimantan). Finally, most Component 1 grantees have conducted policyrelevant research and presented their findings to the DPR, DPD, local governments and/or local legislatures, among them, Seknas Fitra, Prakarsa/PIAR, and YSKK

As with the indicator above, ProRep grantees were engaged in long-term research projects and did not yet have completed research products to share with DPR Members and Committees. Rather than provide a number for the indicator above, we include examples of meetings between Component 2 grantees, MPs, and parliamentary staff or comments regarding research and research topics.

During PPPI’s interview with Moh. Iqbal, senior official of BAKN’s Secretariat (the DPR Public Accounts Committee), Iqbal stated that there had not yet been an in-depth analysis of ministerial performance, and no study had been done on the implementation of Performance Based Budgeting. He commended their conducting this research and stated that he looked forward to ways the BAKN might use the findings of the research.
DPD Secretary General Siti Nurbaya, after reading IRE’s research proposal (on DPD representation), noted her enthusiasm for the topic of study and stated that there has not yet been any research regarding DPD-constituent relations in the context of political representation. She told the researchers that the study was especially important in light of the (then) upcoming judicial review and judgment from the Constitutional Court on the powers of the DPD.
ProRep is working closely with Secretary General of the DPR and her Deputy Secretary General for Legislation Affairs, providing a package of research assistance on two pieces of legislation (human rights and corporate social responsibility). The assistance includes the (a) Sec Gen staff participation in the Policy Fellows’ Course, (b) expert researchers assigned to DPR teams drafting the academic paper and legislation, and (c) assistance with interviewing and hearings with witnesses on the issues. ProRep provided similar assistance in the development of the new MD3 Law. (More detail below).

Notes Expert Round Table Meeting for preparation of BALEG workshops on MD3 Law and BALEG Legislative Performance FGD to analyize needs of BALEG Expert staff and Legal Drafters Public hearings on amending the MD3 Law in four provinces16 and a multi stakeholder workshop in national level. Workshops of Law No.12/2011 socialization in 4 regions
ProRep delivered a diverse program of technical assistance (e.g., STTA, public hearings, focus group discussions, stakeholder meetings, grants) to amend at least 4 Laws on (1) Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR); (2) Human Rights; (3) Gender Equality and (4) Indonesian Representative Council (MPR, DPR, DPD and DPRD / MD3 Law). The most direct project impact is on the MD3 law, where 4 of 6 ProRep STTA recommendations regarding a strengthened BAKN were adopted by the Legislation Committee (BALEG) in DPR-RI. Once completing its deliberations on MD3, BALEG will submit its draft bill to the full DPR for consideration. ProRep conducted public discussion on the importance of a regional BAKN establishment in South Sulawesi as part of MD 3 Law amendments. Moreover, ProRep worked closely with BALEG (the Legislation Council) and successfully developed a model BALEG can continue to follow to inform citizens about laws generated in the DPR – with Law No. 12/2011 on the Lawmaking Process. ProRep conducted workshops in 4 regions i.e. East Java, Bali, North Sumatera, and South Sulawesi, and BALEG is budgeting to continue these workshops next year.

Notes BAKN annual report, investigative report and hearings with ministries of education in overseeing national budget for 16 Universities. 9 government institutions and state owned enterprises (three universities17 and 5 public companies18 , 1 government agencies19).
-
As a follow-up on strengthening BAKN, BPK conducted a verification meeting with nine public companies. These activities took place along with project activities related to establishing BAKN in the regions. Each of these verification meetings constituted an executive oversight action.
“We feel the benefits, and now the audit process is very balanced. By involving these three parties (i.e. auditee, BPK and BAKN) the verification process is much more effective and follow-up actions will be more easily agreed to” Wahyu Suparyono (Director of Finance – PT.Pelindo III)
