throughout Indonesia. Our demand-driven, community-focused strategy emphasizes

encourage local ownership and public-private commitment to local development and service
delivery. We engage national and local governments, civil society, and the public and private
sectors to improve the policy environment and increase citizen involvement in decision-making
processes.
