SKALA Six Monthly Progress Report January – June 2025

SKALA Six Monthly Report (January-June 2025) highlights impactful progress in strengthening inclusive governance and regional development in Indonesia through strategic support in data governance, Minimum Service Standards (MSS), public financial management, and Gender Equality, Disability, and Social Inclusion (GEDSI). The program facilitated cross-sector collaborations, capacity building for local governments, and the institutionalization of consultation spaces for vulnerable communities, resulting in enhanced evidence-based planning, improved basic service delivery, and increased participation of marginalized groups. SKALA’s work led to policy advances and fiscal improvements across provinces, such as Gorontalo, Maluku, Papua, and NTB, emphasizing data integration, inclusive budgeting, and responsive regional revenue management to drive sustainable development and social equity. This report demonstrates SKALA’s critical role in fostering transparent, effective, and inclusive public administration aligning with national priorities.
