About the program

MAHKOTA (Towards a
Strong and Prosperous Indonesian Society) is an Australian Government-funded
program supporting Government of Indonesia (GoI) to improve its social
protection system to reduce poverty and inequality. MAHKOTA operates as a
flexible facility that responds to GoI priorities, provides top Indonesian and
international expertise as well as allows GoI to attempt innovative policy
reforms and initiatives. MAHKOTA’s goals are for a comprehensive and equitable
social protection system for the whole of Indonesia by 2025 and to reduce
poverty and inequality.

MAHKOTA supports GoI
primarily through the Secretariat of the National Team for the Acceleration of
Poverty Reduction (TNP2K). MAHKOTA also provides technical assistance to line
ministries and local governments implementing social protection programs.

MAHKOTA is providing
technical assistance to the provincial government of Papua to design and
implement a universal child grant pilot in three districts. The design and
budget for the program, known as BANGGA Papua, has recently been approved by
the Governor of Papua and the three implementation districts. This will be the
first provincial cash transfer in Papua and the Papua government has requested
an ongoing technical support from MAHKOTA (for cash transfer operations),
KOMPAK (for institutional governance arrangements), and UNICEF (for public
communication support, birth registration support and program evaluation).
