Summary of publication
This is the November 2012 Independent Progress Review Report of the Partnership for Knowledge-based Poverty Reduction (PKPR). The report assesses the progress of the program against its objectives with particular emphasis on its effectiveness in strengthening capacity in the Government of Indonesia (GoI). It also assesses the relevance of the program and identifies room for program improvement. Administered by the World Bank, AusAID's support for the program aims to strengthen national efforts to reduce poverty and vulnerability by supporting the GoI in making informed and evidence-based policy and program decisions. The program has three pillars:
- provision of analytics and strengthening the analytical capacity of GoI and local institutes
- supporting GoI in the design, implementation and evaluation of key poverty and social protection programs
- helping GoI to improve the quality and accessibility of data required for poverty analysis and policy making.
