| Summary: | Since 2000, there has been growing
interest in reforming Indonesia s budgeting systems to
promote a more performance-orientated process. Indonesia is
in the initial stages of this reform. A major challenge is
determining the information needs of the central
coordinating ministries. To date, these ministries have
taken separate paths, developing their own monitoring and
evaluation (M&E) systems, which are not linked to the
planning and budgeting system, and creating new regulations
and institutions to manage them. The result has been
underused information and a high reporting burden at all
levels. Furthermore, the current system places a greater
emphasis on monitoring rather than evaluation. In 2011,
representatives from the coordinating ministries
participated in a series of high-level round table
discussions to identify the steps needed to rationalize and
coordinate M&E practices across institutions and to
strengthen the links among data collection, evaluation,
planning and budgeting. The round table process has
confirmed that, while coordination is needed, establishing
incentives for the demand and use of M&E information is
critical to making the systems effective. This note
identifies priority areas for future action building on this finding. |
