Plus team would like to express its deep appreciation to all of the key informants who voluntarily participated in interviews. Their insights into the current landscape were invaluable, as were their future projections of catalysts for engagement of the private sector, civil society, media, and research institutions. Our most sincere appreciation is due to the Women’s Research Institute; Arin Dutta and Taylor Williamson of Health Policy Plus; and local consultants Yustina Sari, Noor Alam, and Palupi Widjajanti for assisting in the design of the study and collection of data. A big thanks to those who reviewed the report and provided analytical inputs: Stephen Rahaim, Oliver Mathieson, Marcus Pitt, Caroline Philly, and Elizabeth McDavid. Finally, we would like to thank Zohra Balsara, Pak Edhie Rahmat, and Thomas J. Cody at the USAID Indonesia Mission for their support and guidance in the design of this scoping review and in the preparation of this report. v EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Context Indonesia is a country undergoing growth in a multitude of sectors.
