Project description
Empowering Indonesian Women for Poverty Reduction Program (MAMPU) aims to improve the welfare of poor women in Indonesia. The program will work with Government, civil society, parliamentarians and the private sector to target improvements to selected policy and regulatory reforms that constrain progress on poverty reduction, particularly for women. The program will focus on five thematic areas where reform would make a significant difference for poor women: increasing women's access to jobs and removing workplace discrimination; improving women's access to government programs for social protection; improving conditions for women's overseas labour migration; strengthening women's leadership for better health and reproductive rights; strengthening women's leadership to address violence against women. The program will work with all stakeholders to analyse constraints, identify and test solutions, work with the media, and use an evidence base to advocate for change. The total value of thi

Programme targets
The Short-term outcomes to be achieved in the first 2-3 years are:
1) Partner capacity and readiness for collective action, and
2) Supportive parliamentarians who are change actors
The medium term outcomes to be achieved within 3-5 years will be:
1) Strengthened voice and increased influence for Partners, their networks and
parliamentarians; and,
2) Increased collective engagement and participation, including with other stakeholders,
in bringing about change for Partners, their networks and parliamentarians.
The long-term outcomes to be achieved over 5-8 years will be:
1) Increased access by poor women to improved services and livelihoods.
Results achieved
Dec 2015 progress report:
Short-term outcome: Due to training and incentives provided by MAMPU, partners demonstrate improved capacity to influence government reform. Partners have, for example, better internal decision making, improved financial management capacity and expanded networks.
Medium-term outcome: Using their improved capacity and networks, MAMPU partners have influenced government policy. Lobbying by one partner, Migrant Care, helped ensure a national law on the protection of migrant workers became a priority on Indonesia�s National Legislative Agenda. Women at the village level are also better able to voice their priorities and influence decision-making at local levels.
Long-term outcome: There are early indications that MAMPU is contributing to improved services for poor women. Due to the program, MAMPU partner �Aisyiyah has screened more than 3,700 women for cervical cancer. Local governments have also responded favourably to priorities put forward by local women. On the island of Pangkep in South Sulawesi, lobbying by local women led the district government to repair the island�s docks. This will ensure the local community can access services on the mainland.
