Background
Indonesia’s Vision 2045 sets the goal for Indonesia to transition from a resource-based economy towards an advanced service, technology, and knowledge-based economy by the centenary of its independence (2045). The 2025-2045 National Long Term Development Plan (RPJPN) emphasizes the urgency of Indonesia’s human resource development to realize 2045 goals.
Faced with persistent low student performance that is emblematic of a learning crisis, significant improvement in student learning will be required to reach Indonesia’s 2045 goals. The Government of Indonesia (GoI) has started an ambitious program of education reforms. Successive education ministers have set out to strengthen the education system through reforming the national curriculum, and teaching and assessment approaches, to produce citizens with strong foundational skills, open minds, and inclusive values.
Australia is a long-term supporter of the Indonesian basic education sector, with continuous investments supporting education quality improvements for the past two decades, including through the INOVASI program (Phase 1 2016-2020; Phase 2 2020-2023) that focused on supporting the acquisition of literacy and numeracy foundational skills in early grades, exploring local problems and solutions, and generating evidence to inform government policy development and practices. This third phase of INOVASI (2024-2027) builds upon the existing program’s approach and lessons learned and focus on the development of foundational skills through to the end of the primary grades. Phase 3 will engage with priority issues of Australia’s development policy: gender equality, effective inclusion of children with a disability, and responses to the climate change challenge in education. It will focus on the challenge of policy implementation and the gaps that exist between national policies and practices at district and school levels and use the well attested-success of INOVASI’s local problem-based approach to continuously support policy development for effective fit between policy and implementation context.
INOVASI Phase 3 is implemented in 25 districts and cities across Indonesia, in the provinces of West Nusa Tenggara, East Nusa Tenggara, North Kalimantan, East Java, West Java, and Maluku. The program also works in Ibu Kota Nusantara (IKN)
The Program is managed by Palladium on behalf of the Government of Australia through the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT).
The Bappenas Deputy Minister for Human, Community, and Cultural Development has identified the need for INOVASI’s technical assistance in developing the Road Map of 1 Year Pre-School. This crucial document will serve as a detailed staging plan, bridging the RPJPN (National Long-Term Development Plan for 20 years) and the RPJMN (National Mid-Term Development Plan for 5 years), as well as the Ministry’s Renstra (Five-Year Strategic Plan).
By supporting the development of the Road Map of 1 Year Pre-School, INOVASI aims to elevate the discourse around education policy, ensuring a focus on access, quality improvement and inclusivity. This effort is particularly directed at benefiting disadvantaged regions and communities, aligning perfectly with INOVASI’s overarching goals. To achieve this, INOVASI will bring together other development partners such as the UNICEF and expert groups, Disabled People Organizations, and Women Organizations. Through this collaborative approach, INOVASI will help ensure that the Road Map emphasizes quality education for all, fostering a more equitable and effective education system in Indonesia.
