The Inclusive Aspiration Gathering Forum “Mentari Kaltara” is an initiative by the Provincial Government of North Kalimantan to ensure active participation from vulnerable groups—including women, children, persons with disabilities, Indigenous communities, the elderly, and other marginalized populations—in the regional development planning process. Through a participatory and inclusive approach, the forum serves as a strategic platform for civil society networks and local governments to present, discuss, and consolidate development proposals based on real needs. The Mentari Kaltara technical guidelines provide an official reference to ensure that development planning is equitable, data-driven, sustainable, and accountable across all levels of government. The document is only available in Bahasa Indonesia.
