EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Mitra Kunci is already showing results… Mitra Kunci has exceeded its Year Four target of reaching 1000 training service providers who serve vulnerable persons (Indicator 1.1), by 30 percent. The program has brought participation from 654 companies, exceeding the target of 462 companies. These achievements have been made despite challenges due to the restrictions on travel and in-person interactions imposed as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. The project is close to target achievement on most indicators, with 111 out of a target of 140 host country tertiary education institutions receiving capacity development support with USG assistance. Nearly 50,000 individuals accessing program activities out of a target of 55,000, and more than 24,000 completing workforce development programs out of a target of 27,577 and more than 23,000 improving their skills as a result, out of a target of 24,525.

The SINERGI program ended in Year Four having made a significant contribution to the program, having reached more than 20,000 youth through its activities in Central Java (Indicator 2.1). The work of PROGRESIF deserves a special note here, as it reaches small numbers of people with disabilities but is having a transformative impact on their lives, helping them to become productive citizens. By August 2020, PROGRESIF had trained 118 youth in East Java, 27 of whom have already begun work and two of these were recruited through the Kerjabilitas platform.

… playing a catalytic and bridging role with partners Identifying the opportunity presented by higher education institution students who spend a period of up to six weeks in rural villages every year as part of their service to the community under the KKN programs, Mitra Kunci has been able to dramatically increase its reach by preparing them to be youth entrepreneurs. By providing training and support to the HEIs and providing these with small catalytic grants, Mitra Kunci is reaching thousands of students who have been able to use their skills to promote local economic development across Java and beyond. The explosion of creativity, innovation and learning that followed is described in detail in this report. Mitra Kunci has also helped polytechnics to benefit from this training and field application despite KKN being traditionally designed solely for universities.

Mitra Kunci’s collaboration with private sector partners, the Indonesian Employers Association, APINDO, has also driven positive change and enhanced partnership with critical private sector stakeholders, and led to the development and publication of the Guideline for Equality and Inclusivity in the Workplace which is now available for use by APINDO member companies across the country. The collaborative approach used to develop the Guideline has effectively bridged gaps between employers, Government and Disabled People’s Organizations (DPOs) and these new connections will pave the way for more inclusive hiring. At the launch of the Guideline Ministry of Manpower (MOM) indicated that the work being done under Mitra Kunci is valued and will be used to enrich upcoming Government Regulation 70 on the rights of People With Disabilities (PWD).

In Central Java, the provincial government sees the POKSI action forum initiative of the SINERGI grant as a way to bring together public and private sector parties with a shared interest in inclusive workforce development and acknowledges that this helps bridge between its own departments as well. Mitra Kunci is set to continue supporting this collaboration with the government driving activities by making use of the Youth Support Network and systems set up by the SINERGI grant. This bridging role is also valued by private sector partners who see how it helps them to connect with PWD as potential employees.

Mitra Kunci is doing good development work based on deep understanding of the needs and the appetite for change of partners and practical, applicable technical assistance….

USAID.GOV USAID MITRA KUNCI INITIATIVE QUARTERLY REPORT | vi

Mitra Kunci’s work is grounded in the relationships it has with stakeholders across the board, from national level government officials in several ministries, education and vocational training leaders, provincial and local government officials, learners and instructors, youth with disabilities and the organizations that represent them, and private sector companies. The project consults with these individuals and listens to their counterparts, and has built trusting relationships with them, to gain insight into what matters to them, to develop activities in line with their needs. The Guideline for Equality and Inclusivity in the Workplace is a case in point: participants at the launch of this book noted that it is ‘by the private sector, for the private sector;’ however, the Ministry of Manpower also sees this guideline as fully aligned with government policy and would like to incorporate it into the national program.

Technical assistance from Mitra Kunci is also highly valued, and Ministry of Education and Culture (MOEC) senior officials and HEI leaders have sharedhow much they value the training module developed for the KKN-TKWU/PKL program, as they find it brings structure and is relevant and up to date. Students who participated in the training note that they find the tools and approaches to be extremely useful and practical, allowing them to quickly see business opportunities in the villages. This bodes well for their future employability.

.. and developing approaches, models, and guidelines to enable implementation and scaling up through partners, government and other agencies, on the road to self-reliance. The goals of Mitra Kunci are seen to be fully aligned with the goals of government at all levels, with the private sector, and with education and training institutions. This means that take up of Mitra Kunci’s initiatives is high, and potential for scale is vast. In Central Java, for example, SINERGI has built a critical mass of support for sustaining its initiatives province-wide through local plans and budgets.

The Guideline for Equality and Inclusivity in the Workplace is being shared across APINDO’s national network and is to be made accessible for download from their website. Companies struggling to achieve targets of hiring PWDs will soon have a step by step practical guide and links to support them.

Every year all of Indonesia’s universities send thousands of students to the villages for their KKN programs, and the KKN-TKWU/PKL program can be expanded across hundreds of universities and soon to polytechnics. The Ministry of Education and Culture is significantly increasing its budget to provide competitive grants for student entrepreneurs and looks to the United States for inspiration regarding entrepreneurship and the use of advanced IT for future productivity.

RINGKASAN EKSEKUTIF

Mitra Kunci sudah mulai menampakkan hasil... Mitra Kunci telah jauh melampaui target Tahun Keempat untuk menjangkau 1.000 penyedia layanan pelatihan yang melayani kelompok rentan (Indikator 1.1.) sebesar 30 persen. Program ini telah membawa partisipasi total 654 perusahaan, melebihi target sebesar 462 perusahaan. Pencapaian ini terjadi terlepas dari tantangan akibat keterbatasan dalam melaksanakan kunjungan lapangan dan interaksi tatap-muka akibat pandemi COVID-19. Mitra Kunci hampir meraih target capaian untuk sebagian besar indikatornya, dengan 110 dari target 140 institusi perguruan tinggi di negara tuan rumah yang menerima dukungan pengembangan kapasitas lewat bantuan Pemerintah AS. Hampir 50.000 orang telah mengakses aktivitas program dari target 55.000, dan lebih dari 24.000 orang menyelesaikan program pengembangan ketenagakerjaan dari target sebesar 27.577, dan lebih dari 23.000 meningkatkan keterampilan mereka sebagai hasilnya, dari target sebesar 24.525.

Program SINERGI yang berakhir di Tahun Keempat telah membuat kontribusi signifikan terhadap program, dengan menjangkau lebih dari 20.000 anak muda lewat kegiatan-kegiatannya di Jawa Tengah (Indikator 2.1). Hasil kerja PROGRESIF layak mendapatkan catatan khusus di sini, karena menjangkau orang dengan disabilitas (PwD) dalam jumlah yang kecil namun dapat menimbulkan dampak yang transformatif dalam hidup mereka. Per Agustus 2020, PROGRESIF telah melatih 188 anak muda di Jawa Timur, 27 di antaranya telah mulai bekerja dan dua di antaranya direkrut lewat platform Kerjabilitas.

… memainkan peranan sebagai katalis dan jembatan bagi para mitra Dengan mengidentifikasi peluang dari mahasiswa institusi perguruan tinggi yang menghabiskan hingga enam pekan di desa setiap tahun untuk mengikuti program Kuliah Kerja Nyata, Mitra Kunci dapat meningkatkan jangkauannya secara dramatis dengan mempersiapkan para mahasiswa untuk menjadi pengusaha muda. Dengan memberikan pelatihan dan dukungan pada institusi-institusi perguruan tinggi dan menyediakan dana hibah yang katalistik dalam jumlah kecil bagi mereka, Mitra Kunci menjangkau ribuan mahasiswa yang mampu menggunakan keterampilan mereka untuk mempromosikan pengembangan ekonomi lokal di Pulau Jawa dan sekitarnya. Ledakan kreativitas, inovasi, dan pembelajaran yang mengikutinya dijelaskan secara rinci dalam laporan ini. Mitra Kunci juga telah membantu politeknik untuk memeroleh manfaat dari pelatihan dan aplikasi program ini di lapangan, meskipun program KKN pada awalnya hanya dilaksanakan di universitas.

Kolaborasi Mitra Kunci dengan sektor swasta, Asosiasi Pengusaha Indonesia (APINDO) juga telah mendorong perubahan positif dan memperkuat kemitraan dengan pemangku kepentingan sektor swasta, dan berujung pada pengembangan dan penerbitan Panduan Kesetaraan dan Inklusivitas di Tempat Kerja yang kini dapat digunakan oleh perusahaan-perusahaan anggota APINDO di seluruh Indonesia. Pendekatan kolaboratif yang digunakan dalam mengembangkan Panduan tersebut telah secara efektif menjembatani jarak antara pemberi kerja, Pemerintah, dan Organisasi Penyandang Disabilitas (OPD), dan hubungan- hubungan baru ini akan membuka jalan bagi proses perekrutan yang lebih inklusif. Dalam peluncuran Panduan ini, Kementerian Ketenagakerjaan RI (Kemnaker) mengindikasikan bahwa kerja-kerja di bawah Mitra Kunci dihargai dan akan digunakan untuk memerkaya Peraturan Pemerintah Nomor 70 tentang Hak-Hak Penyandang Disabilitas.

Di Jawa Tengah, Pemerintah Provinsi melihat Kelompok Aksi (POKSI) Ketenagakerjaan Inklusif yang digagas SINERGI sebagai jalan untuk mengumpulkan pihak-pihak di sektor publik maupun swasta yang berkepentingan dalam pengembangan ketenagakerjaan inklusif, dan mengakui bahwa hal ini turut menjembatani antardepartemen dalam pemerintah provinsi. Mitra Kunci akan terus mendukung kolaborasi ini dengan Pemerintah dengan memanfaatkan jaringan pendukung anak muda (Youth Support

USAID.GOV USAID MITRA KUNCI INITIATIVE QUARTERLY REPORT | viii

Network) dan sistem-sistem yang telah dirancang oleh SINERGI untuk menggerakkan kegiatan tersebut. Peranan sebagai jembatan ini juga dihargai oleh mitra-mitra dari sektor swasta yang melihat bagaimana ini membantu mereka berhubungan dengan orang-orang dengan disabilitas sebagai calon pekerja.

Mitra Kunci melakukan kerja pembangunan yang baik berdasarkan pemahaman mendalam terhadap kebutuhan dan keinginan untuk perubahan dari para mitra dan pendampingan teknis yang praktis dan dapat diaplikasikan... Kerja-kerja Mitra Kunci didasarkan pada hubungan-hubungan yang dimiliki program dengan berbagai pemangku kepentingan, mulai dari pejabat pemerintahan pusat di sejumlah Kementerian, pemimpin lembaga pendidikan dan pelatihan, pejabat pemerintahan daerah mulai dari tingkat provinsi hingga desa, para instruktur dan pelajar, anak muda dengan disabilitas dan organisasi-organisasi yang merepresentasikan mereka, juga perusahaan di sektor swasta. Mitra Kunci berkonsultasi dengan dan mendengarkan mitra-mitra mereka dan membangun hubungan berdasar kepercayaan dengan mereka, hingga mereka mampu memeroleh wawasan terhadap hal-hal yang penting bagi mereka dan mengembangkan kegiatan-kegiatan yang selaras dengan kebutuhan mereka. Panduan Kesetaraan dan Inklusivitas di Tempat Kerja adalah salah satu contohnya: peserta dalam acara peluncuran mencatat bahwa buku tersebut adalah ‘oleh sektor swasta, untuk sektor swasta’, namun Kementerian Ketenagakerjaan juga memandangnya selaras dengan kebijakan Pemerintah dan hendak menyertakannya ke dalam program nasional.

Pendampingan teknis dari Mitra Kunci juga sangat dihargai, dan para pejabat senior di Kementerian Pendidikan dan Kebudayaan RI (Kemdikbud) maupun pimpinan institusi-institusi perguruan tinggi merujuk pada nilai-nilai yang mereka tempatkan dalam modul-modul pelatihan yang dikembangkan oleh program Kuliah Kerja Nyata dan Praktik Kerja Lapangan Tematik Kewirausahaan (KKN-TKWU dan PKL-TKWU), yang dipandang memberikan struktur dalam program, relevan, dan memiliki kebaruan. Para mahasiswa yang berpartisipasi dalam pelatihan mengungkapkan bahwa mereka merasa alat-alat dan pendekatan yang digunakan sangat berguna dan praktis, sehingga memungkinkan mereka untuk melihat peluang bisnis di desa dengan cepat. Hal ini bermanfaat pula untuk peluang bekerja mereka di masa depan.

...dan mengembangkan pendekatan, model, dan panduan yang memungkinkan implementasi dan peningkatan kebijakan-kebijakan ini dengan para mitra, pemerintah, dan instansi-instansi lainnya, dalam jalan menuju kemandirian. Tujuan-tujuan Mitra Kunci dipandang selaras dengan tujuan-tujuan Pemerintah di semua tingkat, dengan sektor swasta dan dengan institusi pendidikan maupun pelatihan. Hal ini berarti penerimaan yang tinggi dan potensi peningkatan (scaling up) yang besar. Di Jawa Tengah, contohnya, SINERGI telah membangunan dukungan yang krusial untuk memertahankan inisiatif di tingkat provinsi lewat rencana pembangunan dan anggaran di tingkat daerah.

Panduan Kesetaraan dan Inklusivitas di Tempat Kerja akan dibagikan ke jaringan nasional APINDO dan dapat diunduh dari situs resmi APINDO. Perusahaan yang masih berjuang mencapai target dalam mempekerjakan orang-orang dengan disabilitas akan segera memiliki panduan praktis langkah demi langkah dan tautan untuk mendukung mereka.

Setiap tahun, universitas-universitas di Indonesia mengirimkan ribuan mahasiswa mereka ke desa untuk program KKN, dan program KKN-TKWU serta PKL-TKWU dapat diperluas di ratusan universitas dan juga politeknik. Kementerian Pendidikan dan Kebudayaan tengah meningkatkan anggaran mereka secara signifikan untuk menyediakan hibah kompetitif bagi mahasiswa pengusaha dan melirik Amerika Serikat sebagai inspirasi terkait kewirausahaan dan penggunaan teknologi informasi tingkat lanjut untuk produktivitas di masa depan.

1. PROJECT OVERVIEW

1.1. KUNCI/MITRA KUNCI OVERVIEW The USAID/Indonesia Kunci Initiative was developed based on a USAID Broad Agency Agreement (BAA) co-design, co-creation process. Several U.S. and Indonesian organizations participated in the co- creation process and prepared concept notes which were submitted to USAID/Indonesia and accepted by the end of 2016. Through the co-design process USAID identified and selected six Project Implementers (PIs) whose concepts would be piloted and tested in the priority Indonesian provinces of West Java, Central Java and East Java. Each project implementer is a consortium made up of several organizations working together to implement their pilot concepts. Each PI is required to prove that their concepts can be scaled up and those projects or project activities that are considered scalable will be selected for continuation in a subsequent full implementation phase.

USAID selected and directly funded three of these Project Implementer (PI) consortia led by U.S. organizations through Cooperative Agreements (Co-Ags). Below is a summary of these projects:

• YOUTH WIN THROUGH ECONOMIC PARTICIPATION (YEP) improves work-readiness and economic decision making by equipping youth with critical thinking skills and the attitudes and behaviors needed to obtain and maintain employment, set goals and manage income wisely. • JADI PENGUSAHA MANDIRI (JAPRI) addresses youth unemployment by cultivating entrepreneurs and facilitating improved training quality. • THE READY-TO-WORK ACCELERATOR PROGRAM (RWAP) enhances the capacity and quality of training centers and links them together through the creation of Learning and Innovation Networks.

USAID also selected three Project Implementers (PI) led by Indonesian organizations that were funded by grants under contract from the Mitra Kunci Initiative:

• SINERGI establishes a coordination model for stakeholder collaboration, matching poor and vulnerable youth to relevant job skills. • AYO INKLUSIF! strengthens the capacity of young leaders and journalists to raise public awareness about inclusive workforce development issues and highlight best practices. • EQUAL OPPORTUNITY FOR EMPLOYMENT-SAKU (EOE) improves youth access to employment information and comprehensive training through a library network. Equips youth with the knowledge, skills and attitudes required to enter and succeed in job-seeking or entrepreneurship.

The following map shows the PI consortium and the provinces and districts they worked in through the pilot phase. The six PI consortium were comprised of twenty-two organizations working in twenty-two different districts, four of which are supported by more than one PI. Multiple PIs were conducting activities in each Province making coordination and effective collaboration essential. During Year Three the US-led PIs (JAPRI, YEP and RWAP) completed their pilot implementation phase, and started to scale up to new Provinces and Districts in a follow-up, full implementation phase that ends on September 30, 2020. For example, YEP expanded into Central Java during its full implementation phase and reached out to and utilized SINERGI’s contacts and networks to facilitate their entry in that province.

1.2. MITRA KUNCI OVERVIEW USAID Mitra Kunci was awarded in January 2017 in order to strengthen partnerships advancing a more robust and dynamic workforce system in Indonesia by developing and supporting holistic and innovative solutions for the complex challenges preventing this system from functioning as effectively as it should. As noted above, Mitra Kunci was designed to directly manage, support, and fund three Indonesian-led consortium PIs and to coordinate and collaborate with the three U.S. led PIs directly funded by USAID.

Through technical assistance, capacity development and coordination, Mitra Kunci was designed to:

• Improve the organizational capacity of Indonesian partner organizations to implement activities appropriately and effectively manage U.S. projects and funds; • Integrate gender and social inclusion principles into all Mitra Kunci programmatic areas; • Strengthen outreach and engagement of youth through a Positive Youth Development (PYD) approach; • Facilitate and lead strategic engagement and Communicating, Collaborating, Learning, Adapting (CCLA) within and between the private sector, higher education institutions, the Government of Indonesia (GOI) and poor and vulnerable (P&V) youth; and, • Engage higher education institutions in activities that support a more inclusive workforce system.

Revisions to Mitra Kunci’s Task Order July 2019 and July 2020

In July of 2019, Mitra Kunci’s Task Order Contract was modified to incorporate a revised and updated Section C – Statement of Work. The revised Section C included a new Results Framework (See Annex 3) that incorporates a new Development Objective: Essential Human Services to Targeted Populations Improved and Sustained, a new Intermediate Result: Capacity of Educational Institutions Improved, and illustrative targets for the number of poor and vulnerable youth with increased access to higher-quality training and three USAID EG Standard F Indicators. USAID approved and incorporated into the contract revised life-of-project targets for the following standard indicators:

• EG 6-3: Number of individuals who complete U.S. Government-assisted workforce development programs (40,000) • EG 6-2: Number of individuals with improved skills following completion of U.S. Government assisted workforce development programs (36,136); and

USAID.GOV USAID MITRA KUNCI INITIATIVE ANNUAL REPORT 2020 | 2

• EG 6-1: Number of individuals with new and/or better employment following completion of U.S. Government-assisted workforce development programs (11,000). In July of 2020, Mitra Kunci’s Task Order Contract was again modified to incorporate a revised Section C – Statement of Work. The revised Section C included a new task—Task VI—which covers activities directed at the employment and economic empowerment of persons with disabilities in the East Java province, as set forth through the application submitted in April 2020 for the FY 2019 USAID Disability Funding Program. Through Task VI, the project is developing and implementing models of successful, scalable, and sustainable solutions for PWDs to gain new or better employment to lead to more productive lives, in seven target districts of the East Java Province.

Phased approach

The revised Mitra Kunci project is implemented in three phases, as follows:

Phase 1 (Pilot Phase). PIs developed and tested their models and sought to provide evidence of their success in order to secure the buy-in and commitment of government and private sector partners to scale-up their activities in the next phase. This phase started in October 2017 and ended in May 2019m and was reported previously.

Phase 2 (Full Implementation/Getting to Scale). Mitra Kunci assessed which consortia and components of the PIs pilot phase had the best chance to be scaled up and supported a more limited and focused set of activities with the goal of getting them to scale by the end of Phase 2. SINERGI’s Phase 2 started in April 2019 and ended on September 29, 2020. This report covers Phase 2from October 1, 2019 to September 29, 2020.

Phase 3 (Scale-Up). Mitra Kunci expects that innovative models should have demonstrated progress toward scale-up or have already been scaled-up and handed over to project partners who will continue to implement and/or expand the activities, tools, or approaches. This phase will run from September 30, 2020 to January 8, 2022.

2. PROGRESS TOWARDS EXPECTED RESULTS

The table below illustrates Mitra Kunci’s approach to inclusive workforce development.

Mitra Kunci has exceeded its Year Four target of reaching 1000 training service providers who serve vulnerable persons (Indicator 1.1), by 3.4 percent. The program has brought participation from 654 companies, exceeding the target of 462 companies. These achievements have been made despite challenges due to the restrictions to travel and in-person interactions imposed as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Mitra Kunci is on target with most of its indicators, though due to the nature of the activities particularly with universities whose Student Community Service Program on Entrepreneurship (Kuliah Kerja Nyata Tematik Kewirausahaan/KKN-TKWU) programs have not been fully reported yet, data will soon be available. Once they are entered it will be clear that the program is reaching and passing its targets on individuals accessing activities, completing workforce development programs and gaining new skills (indicators 2.1, 2.2, 2.3).

Meanwhile tracer studies related to new and better employment (2.4) will also take time to show results as the participating students have not graduated yet. On several indicators the program is slightly

USAID.GOV USAID MITRA KUNCI INITIATIVE ANNUAL REPORT 2020 | 5

below target, with 111 out of a target of 150 institutions receiving capacity development support so far (1.2), and 21 out of 35 adopting improved workforce curricula. The survey on youth reporting increased self-efficacy (5.1) has so far only been reported by one Higher Education Institution (HEI), Mitra Kunci expects to receive more information on this in Year Five, however we note that the data received so far was voluntarily provided as it preceded formal agreements with HEIs.

Mitra Kunci’s partners have made significant contributions to overall results, and SINERGI has now ended, having reached more than 20,000 individuals through its activities (Indicator 2.1) and supported 1,615 individuals to obtain new or better employment (Indicator 2.4). It also leveraged considerable additional resources totalling IDR 303,800,000 (Indicator 3.1). PROGRESIF meanwhile has so far reached 118 PWD, out of a target of 150. 27 of these youths have found work, 21 in the formal sector and 16 informally, and two of them found their jobs through kerjabilitas.com. PROGRESIF reacheda total of 14 job providers in Java.

This section is organized by the five tasks in the Mitra Kunci Work Plan. This focuses on activities conducted by Mitra Kunci as well as activities carried out by Project Implementers (PIs) and other external partners through coordination with and support by Mitra Kunci.Section 2.6 focuses on the activities and results of PIs.

2.1. TASK I: PARTNERSHIP MAPPING AND BASELINE INFORMATION COLLECTION Task completed and reported previously.

2.2. TASK II: MANAGEMENT OF NON-U.S. LED PROJECT IMPLEMENTERS Task II focuses on how Mitra Kunci supports PIs to effectively manage their grants, documentation, results reporting, and sustainability of activties.

2.2.1. TECHNICAL COORDINATION MEETING WITH PROJECT IMPLEMENTERS This year, Mitra Kunci provided technical assistance to SINERGI, PROGRESIF, APINDO and seven HEIs for their KKN-TKWU programs, including Universitas Padjadjaran, Universitas Kuningan, Universitas Surya Kencana, Universitas Siliwangi, Universitas Negeri Surabaya, Universitas Jember, and Universitas Muhammadiyah Malang. The technical assistance focused on grant management and technical and strategic matters related to the programs. Mitra Kunci’s support came from both the gand the technical teams.

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic which required all teams to work from home since late March 2020, the Mitra Kunci team developed a range of new internal and external methods of coordination. Meetings that were usually conducted in person moved online to reduce the risk of virus transmission between team members, PIs and government partners and program beneficiaries. To ensure that the team was as responsive as possible to partners, various WhatsApp groups were set up to share information, discuss and consult between the partners and also their partner BLKs, and where Mitra Kunci assistance was required, the relevant team members would respond.

Frequently raised issues in technical discussions with partners included:

• Advocacy and networking strategy consultations, and technical support to activities

USAID.GOV USAID MITRA KUNCI INITIATIVE ANNUAL REPORT 2020 | 6

• Coordination of data collection for M&E • Mentoring of partners to ensure quality of reporting • Activity preparation • Clarifications on aspects of the grant agreements, including deliverables, use of funds, work plans • Confirmation of supporting document requirements for financial reports

Detailed technical support interventions are listed in Annex 7. Overall the team’s support allowed partners to resolve issues as they came up and anticipate potential issues, sharing findings and resolutions across all partners to ensure were lessons learned.

Starting in August 2020, the seven HEI partners held online KKN-TKWU kick-off meetings led by Mitra Kunci and university rectors and deputies, with key HEI staff. These meetings included sessions covering Knowledge Management, M&E, Branding and Marketing, USAID Rules and Regulations and other aspects of grant management under the FAA.

2.2.2. MONTHLY PI COORDINATION MEETINGS Routine communications and coordination with PIs occurred mainly online prior to March 2020, with only occasional in-person meetings. However, from March onwards, all coordination with PIs was done online. Realizing that combining more than one partner in a meeting was not effective as their fields of focus and challenges were different, Mitra Kunci started doing these meetings one-on-one on a province level basis, which provided an opportunity to connect partners to key local stakeholders to advance their programs. In East Java, this involved bringing PROGRESIF around the table with provincial government departments and also JAPRI, the other USAID program working in the region. In Central Java, Mitra Kunci facilitated several meetings between SINERGI and provincial government departments as well as APINDO and other USAID programs RWAP, YEP and JAPRI, all also working in the same province.

2.2.3. QUARTERLY MONITORING VISITS TO PROJECT IMPLEMENTERS In the first quarter, monitoring visits went ahead as normal, and included a Data Quality Assessment (DQA) by DAI home office MEL Specialist, Naseema Noor. Along with the M&E team, Ms. Noor visited Transformasi (SINERGI consortium), the University of Padjadjaran (UNPAD), and the University of Muhammadiyah in Malang (UMM) in East Java. This visit focused on discussions of all program indicators and definitions and was subsequently followed by all partners. With the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, technical assistance and monitoring of project implementers (SINERGI and PROGRESIF) and HEI partners was done through email and teleconferencing.

2.2.4. TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE FOR PROJECT IMPLEMENTERS Mitra Kunci provides ongoing technical support to PIs to help them achieve their expected results.

SINERGI Implemented by the Rajawali Foundation, in Year Four the SINERGI grant produced a GESI work plan, PYD work plan, and activity work plan to ensure the achievement of program targets. Mitra Kunci assisted by developing a concept for a Youth Support Network (YSN) as the main strategy for mobilizing youth in Central Java. Mitra Kunci met with the SINERGI team regularly in February and March 2020 to ensure that the targets, strategies and coordination of activities were properly developed and on schedule to achieve the intended results, based on concerns of technical staff. Following these interventions, the SINERGI team agreed to update their activities to ensure the achievement of EG 6.3,

USAID.GOV USAID MITRA KUNCI INITIATIVE ANNUAL REPORT 2020 | 7

6.2 and 6.1 targets, to focus on GESI and PYD throughout their program, and to improve coordination and communication.

Through April and May, coordination and technical assistance focused on financial and program management, with online technical assistance meetings continuing regularly through April and May 2020 focusing on the Youth Support Network (YSN), Action Group (POKSI) meetings, and policy advocacy activities with the provincial government aimed at ensuring program sustainability. Complementing the routine review and feedback provided by the Mitra Kunci grants team, in May 2020, an external financial auditor, Johan Malonda, initiated a SINERGI program financial audit.

In May, to support SINERGI’s intention to reschedule a number of activities and close out the program, Mitra Kunci asked SINERGI to start preparing a close-out demobilization plan, and to prepare for final reporting. From that point onwards, Mitra Kunci provided technical assistance to ensure quality deliverables including the Work Plan, Monitoring, Evaluation and Learning Plan, Gender Equality and Social Inclusion Action Plan, Positive Youth Development Plan, POKSI Terms of Reference, POKSI partnership agreements with the 4P consortium, Youth Assessment Tool and results, Youth Database Tracking System, Handover Plan and Sustainability Strategy, Close Out Plan and Final Program Report.

PROGRESIF (implemented by Saujana). Mitra Kunci hosted a kick-off meeting with Saujana in October 2019 to provide guidance and templates for an Annual Work Plan, PYD strategy, detailed implementation plan, and an Annual Monitoring, Evaluation and Learning (AMEL) Plan. To ensure that the program was on target, Mitra Kunci staff joined Saujana activities held at BLK/TVET in Sidoarjo and BLK/TVET in Banyuwangi. Based on Mitra Kunci advice, Saujana expanded efforts to encourage Sidoarjo TVET and Banyuwangi TVET to become more inclusive and friendly to the disability community by providing training to BLK instructors and discuss with TVET senior management on strategic planning of programs for BLK Sidoarjo and Banyuwangi for the next period of the program. Mitra Kunci then provided technical assistance to the PROGRESIF team through two-days of intensive discussions from January 21-22 on program implementation, including the integration of PYD and GESI as well as grants and financial management, and continued to support through regular online meetings through April and May 2020 covering issues related to the impacts and potential responses to COVID-19. While the program originally expected to be able to place 31 people with disabilities in jobs during this period, this had to be revised due to the impact of COVID-19 on several business partners. Mitra Kunci and PROGRESIF also discussed the need to revert planned classroom training in BLKs to individual apprenticeships to reduce potential virus transmission.

The outcome of these discussions was that PROGRESIF proposed an NCE from September 30, 2020 to December 31, 2020 to provide an opportunity to modify some activities to meet all agreed deliverables, with agreed changes as follows:

• Blended Soft and Hard Skill Training. Postponed due to closure of BLKs. • Online Coaching. To be extended through December 2020 for 100 youth with disabilities. • Disability inclusive job fair. The two remaining events are to be moved online. • Technical assistance for employers. To be conducted online. • Lesson learned dissemination forum. To be postponed from August to December 2020, and potentially moved online.

The No Cost Extension for PROGRESIF was approved on 28 August 2020, extending the project from 15 October 2019 to 31 December 2020.

USAID.GOV USAID MITRA KUNCI INITIATIVE ANNUAL REPORT 2020 | 8

Mitra Kunci technical support from this point onwards included support to collaboration on training for PWD with private skills training institutions, to expand the program reach and offer a wider range of opportunities for PWD while also mitigating the effect of slowed activities in BLKs. This was seen also as a way to increase the number of inclusive training centers.

United Tractors (UT) Karya Bhakti Foundation After several months of discussions and revisions, Mitra Kunci and United Tractors (UT) Karya Bhakti Foundation UT agreed that their initial grant concept did not meet USAID standards and expected results. Mitra Kunci initiated a discussion with UT about their interest in contributing to strengthening Community BLKs in partnership with Mitra Kunci and the Ministry of Manpower (MOM). On January 10, 2020, UT proposed that their contribution would be to strengthen the management and ability of Community BLKs to ensure that training programs were relevant and linked to private sector employers. Mitra Kunci introduced UT to MOM which culminated in UT asking the Minister of Manpower Ida Fauziah to inaugurate the UT School learning facility in Cakung, East Jakarta on January 28th. Ida Fauziah attended, mentioning USAID and Mitra Kunci as partners of MOM in inclusive workforce development programs.

Mitra Kunci then worked with UT to prepare a revised program description and budget aligned with the new and agreed activities with MOM. The grant request documentation was being finalized in February, but due to delays in the Community BLK activity as a result of COVID-19, Mitra Kunci is waiting to finalize the plan until after the project reaches agreement with MOM on how to go forward. At this point, the planning to have FAA with UT remains on hold, and if MOM indicates they will continue the engagement, Mitra Kunci will respond.

APINDO In September 2019, Mitra Kunci signed an MOU with APINDO to implement joint activities to support improved GESI policies and practices in APINDO member companies, and based on APINDO’s commitment to the activities, it was agreed that Mitra Kunci should shift its activity budget to APINDO so that they could lead, implement and follow up on activities with their member companies. A small Fixed Award Agreement ($33,917) was developed with this in mind and approved by USAID on February 7, 2020. This aimed to work with 20-30 of its member companies as well as eight production units under H&M and up to ten member hotels of the Accor Hotel Group to implement inclusive policies and action plans for company human resources. Mitra Kunci held a kick-off meeting with key APINDO staff in March 2020 to go over their grant agreement in detail and clarify financial and administrative requirements. Mitra Kunci then joined a series of monthly online meetings with APINDO

USAID.GOV USAID MITRA KUNCI INITIATIVE ANNUAL REPORT 2020 | 9

to work out how to respond to the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic. It was agreed that the potential for companies to hire PWD would be severely limited given the economic tightening and job losses seen nationwide, and several other activities would need to be postponed, however the GESI Guideline compiled by APINDO and Mitra Kunci was in the final editing process and would soon be ready to be disseminated to APINDO member companies.

Based on the discussions above, it was agreed that the FAA grant to APINDO needed an NCE from September 30, 2020 to January 31, 2021, with the following key changes:

• Workshop on Social Compliance Module (Inclusive Workforce Assessor) and Workshop for Development of Social Compliance Module rescheduled to August 31, 2020. • GESI Guideline Socialization rescheduled to December 31, 2020. • Company Mentoring to develop inclusive Human Resources (HR) Policies rescheduled to January 31, 2021.

The NCE was signed on July 24, 2020.

Through the year, Mitra Kunci’s technical assistance to APINDO focused on building links between the private sector and DPOs and vice versa, as previously there was a lack of connection which meant that companies did not know how to target recruitment, and DPOs did not have access to companies to promote PWD as candidates. Mitra Kunci took this effective bridging role through several approaches, including:

• Facilitating workshops to prepare the GESI Guideline and bringing in representatives of DPOs to enrich the content and ensure the voice and needs of PWD were well represented in the content and methods, in line with the principle, ‘nothing about us without us.’ • Facilitating ‘Link and Match’ between APINDO members and PWD through organizations and platforms such as Bilic, ThisAble, Difalink to increase the participation of PWD in the workforce.

2.3. TASK III: PROVISION OF TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE TO KEY STAKEHOLDERS, PARTNERS, AND NON-US LED PIS Task III is focused on the provision of technical assistance to PIs, partners, and stakeholders, particularly in technical areas such as PYD, GESI, CCLA, Monitoring and Evaluation and other aspects relating to the technical implementation of their activities.

2.3.1 DEVELOP A ROAD MAP AND TOOLS FOR COMMUNITY TRAINING CENTERS (COMMUNITY BLK) MOM and Mitra Kunci developed a partnership for the project to support MOM to develop a Road Map and Business Model for Community BLKs in the three focus provinces in Java, to support Community BLKs to be a sustainable and inclusive component of the workforce development system. In addition to the Road Map and Business Model, MOM requested Mitra Kunci support to adapt their existing soft skills training modules for use in Community BLK, lead Training of Trainers for Master Trainers at the seven supporting BLKs in Java and develop a simple system for monitoring the progress and results.

USAID.GOV USAID MITRA KUNCI INITIATIVE ANNUAL REPORT 2020 | 10

Due to the impact of COVID-19, many activities with MOM and Community BLKs were delayed as the Ministry was required to dedicate much of its resources toward the economic and workforce impacts of the pandemic.

2.3.1.1 DEVELOP A TECHNICAL AGREEMENT WITH MOM TO SUPPORT COOPERATION WITH MITRA KUNCI Mitra Kunci and MOMsigned an MOU on December 30, 2019, however, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, on June 15, 2020 in a meeting with the Acting Director of the Institutional Training team, Directorate General of Training and Productivity Development (Binalatas) Mr. Yustianto, it was proposed to make some adjustments to the schedule and format of activities and to align the activity schedule with that of MOM.

In July 2020, Mitra Kunci and MOM had expected to meet, however social distancing measures prevented this, and Mitra Kunci suggested to meet online.

The meeting was then held in September 2020, after on August Mitra Kunci sent a draft document for the follow-up of technical cooperation to MOM via e-mail. After the discussion, the document was received by the Ministry of Manpower's Lemsar Binalattas (Education and Training Facility Institute) team as the base reference for cooperation between MOM and Mitra Kunci in Year 5.

2.3.1.2 DEVELOP A ROAD MAP AND BUSINESS MODEL FOR COMMUNITY BLKS In response to President Jokowi’s declaration of 2019 “the year of human development through vocational education and training,” MOM committed to establishing 1,000 Community-Based Vocational Training Centers (Community BLKs), including 322 in the provinces of West, Central, and East Java. On December 30, 2019, Mitra Kunci signed an MOU with MOM to develop Community BLKs in Indonesia. This took place during the Community BLK National Gathering event at the Al-Fadlu Wal Fadilah Islamic boarding school in Kendal, Central Java. The President of Indonesia, Joko Widodo, attended the event to officially launch 1000 Community BLKs, highlighting his appreciation of various partner organizations’ support of the Indonesian government, including Mitra Kunci. Mitra Kunci was the only international donor project to be invited, along with private and state companies.

Following this event, Mitra Kunci held a workshop on February 27-28, 2020 to develop the concepts further and draft a Guide for Development of Community BLKs, and at this point MOM added the Community BLK program to their own plans and budgets for 2021.

Mitra Kunci and MOM developed a draft road map and business model for Community BLKs through a workshop in February 2020, with participation from representatives of Mitra Kunci, MOM at the national level; Ministry of Social Welfare; Provincial Offices of MOM in West Java, Central Java and East Java; 14 Community BLKs; the Indonesian Employers Association (APINDO) and H&M. Using a talk show approach, the event covered Community BLK related policies, standards, instructor competencies, quality assurance, and sustainability.

USAID.GOV USAID MITRA KUNCI INITIATIVE ANNUAL REPORT 2020 | 11

Eric Bergthold, (previous) COP of Mitra Kunci welcomes workshop representatives.

The discussion focused on the legal status and credibility of Community BLKs, sustainability, development of a workable monitoring system, improvement of cross sector communication and coordination, development and use of competence-based systems and mechanisms, increased quantity and quality of instructors, timely arrangement of infrastructure and facilities, the demand for and supply of labor, development and analyses of data, and most importantly, improved governance.

The representative from the Ministry of Social Welfare offered to share available data such as integrated data to enable BLKs to reach out to P&V youth. Discussions focused on how BLKs can compete with vocational high schools (SMK), and private sector participants highlighted the importance of ensuring that training programs matched the needs of employers. Lastly, some Community BLK leaders expressed concern about the difficulty of meeting MOM standards for accreditation and requested that these be simplified.

Participants engaged in a facilitated, interactive learning-by doing process to define a common vision of the Community BLK for the year of 2025. The common vision was then broken down into milestones, as well as strategies and key activities to outline pathways to achieving the vision. Mitra Kunci also introduced the concept and practice of the social business model canvas which is similar to a business model canvas but focused on social innovators and social businesses.

By the end of the workshop, participants had developed an outline of the road map and business model for Community BLKs for the period of 2020-2025. These were sent to MOM on March 19, 2020 and re- sent on June 15, 2020 with the addition of an outline proposal for a guidebook on strengthening the inclusivity of Community BLKs.

MOM also requested Mitra Kunci support to adapt their existing soft skills training modules for use in Community BLK, to lead Training of Trainers (ToT) for Master Trainers in seven BLKs in Java and develop a simple system for monitoring progress and results. Unfortunately, these activities were delayed as MOM was required to dedicate much of its resources toward mitigating the economic and

USAID.GOV USAID MITRA KUNCI INITIATIVE ANNUAL REPORT 2020 | 12

workforce impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. Based on conversations with MOM colleagues, the draft Community BLK Road Map was later used by MOM in their internal meetings on the subject. MOM is using the document to plan resource allocation and provide support to the BLK in reaching out to poor and vulnerable youth.

Meanwhile on July 23, 2020, based on direction from MOM and the existing MOU, Mitra Kunci pursued discussions on how to ensure that Community BLKs comply with Indonesia’s National Work Competency Standards framework. The team met the head of the National Professional Certification Board (BNSP) and discussed training center management, quality standards and the Guide to Strengthening Collaboration and Partnership for BLKs and Industry. These discussions aimed to ensure that the Road Map will be applicable by Community BLK leadership and trainers.

2.3.1.3 DEVELOP A SOFT SKILLS TRAINING MODULE SPECIFICALLY FOR COMMUNITY BLKS This activity was planned to take place from February to April 2020, but due to delays related to COVID-19, Mitra Kunci and MOM agreed to postpone it until further notice.

2.3.1.4 TRAINING OF MASTER TRAINERS FOR 7 BLK TRAINERS Mitra Kunci and MOM have agreed to postpone this activity from May until further notice, depending on the COVID-19 situation, as MOM faces ongoing operational challenges related to implementing online learning as all of MOM existing learning program required in-person event, training, coaching and mentoring as they combine classes program with many hours for practice sessions.

2.3.1.5 DEVELOP DATABASE AND MONITORING SYSTEM FOR COMMUNITY BLKS In March 2020, Mitra Kunci met the Head of the MOM Cooperation Bureau, Mr. Yustianto, to further discuss the Community BLK Road Map and the Community BLK progress monitoring system. Mitra Kunci submitted a draft of BLK Community Road Map outline, and a monitoring concept document. Mr. Yustianto recommended a follow-up meeting to discuss the Community BLK monitoring system so that the adoption process and other technical aspects could be discussed in more detail. To follow up, on March 19, Mitra Kunci held an online meeting with the Secretary of the Directorate General of Binalattas, Mr. Surya Lukita Warman. During the meeting, MOM agreed to conduct a more in-depth review of the Community BLK progress monitoring system with a view to Community BLK monitoring in West Java, Central Java and East Java. MOM also requested Mitra Kunci to involve senior staff of the National Professional Certification Board (BNSP) as consultants in developing the Community BLK road map document so that it can be quickly adopted and used by MOM.

On June 15, 2020 Mitra Kunci followed up with MOM and held a discussion on monitoring tools, and with the intermittent closures of MOM office due to COVID-19 cases, Mitra Kunci’s approach is to maintain frequent contact and stand ready to support.

2.3.2. PROMOTION OF INCLUSIVE BLK MODEL IN MOM This activity was planned to start in April 2020 but is postponed due to COVID-19, and no date has been set yet. In the meantime, Mitra Kunci is seeking other more indirect ways to provide support to inclusive BLKs, including identifying a good-practice example of an effective inclusive BLK. BLK Surakarta has been supported intensively through the PROGRESIF grant program and has made reasonable accommodation for PWD as well as provided support for training PWD. To this end, Mitra Kunci brought a resource person from BLK Surakarta to share knowledge with BLKs Banyuwangi and Sidoarjo in August 2020 in East Java, and both are making progress in GESI. As all three of these BLKs are under MOM, they provide the opportunity to serve as a model for MOM, and Mitra Kunci has also brought in a photographer to capture the changes and show how reasonable accommodation changes were made, to be used to advocate for all BLKs to become inclusive. Some of these photos are included later in this report, have been shared with MOM Community Relations office for advocacy purposes, and it is planned to promote this activity on International Disability Day in December 2020.

2.3.3. DEVELOPMENT OF AN ADVOCACY NETWORK TO PROMOTE INCLUSIVE WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT Mitra Kunci has been active in promoting inclusive workforce development and expanding its influence on the development of several new government policy initiatives, taking opportunities for networking and advocacy wherever they present themselves, at national and local levels and across the involved agencies and organizations.

Consultations with MOM on the new Kartu Pra-Kerja/ Pre-Employment Card program President Joko Widodo announced a new program for job-seekers called the Kartu Pra-Kerja, or pre- employment cards, which provide access to funds and training opportunities. Mitra Kunci joined a forum on the development of this program on February 18, 2020 in Jakarta, along with representatives of various universities, research institutions, NGOs, and trade unions. Mitra Kunci provided input on the need to develop special policies for the allocation of pre-employment cards for persons with disabilities in order to improve their skills and access to decent work. Mitra Kunci also conveyed the importance of

USAID.GOV USAID MITRA KUNCI INITIATIVE ANNUAL REPORT 2020 | 14

using the positive youth development (PYD) approach when developing employment policies in Indonesia.

Consultations with MOM on the development of the Disability Support Unit/ ULD On June 12, Mitra Kunci was invited to the Directorate of Domestic Manpower Placement in MOM to discuss the development of a Disability Support Unit (Unit Layanan Disabilitas, ULD). ULDs are intended to form part of the Ministry’s local presence in provinces and cities nationwide. The Ministry, represented by Acting Director Nora Kartika Setyaningrum, asked Mitra Kunci to support the production of an Inclusive Workforce Guidebook to be used as a reference for ULD concept development, a Disability Sensitivity Training Module and Disability Workforce Placement Guide, to be used as a reference for the ULD concept. At a follow up meeting on June 22 MOM also sought collaboration on two additional publications—Operational Standards for Public Services and Placement Guidance for vulnerable workers– as part of the inclusive workforce development model that has been offered by Mitra Kunci. This collaboration, still in the early stages of discussion, aims to promote inclusion by increasing the absorption rate of prospective workers who have completed vocational training through a placement process by employment agencies at provincial and district level.

In addition to the discussion on the ULD concept, Mitra Kunci raised the need for wider cooperation with the Directorate General of Manpower Placement and Expansion of Employment Opportunities (Binapenta) for coordination, so that training which falls under the responsibility of Binalatas can be connected to the labor market which is the responsibility of Binapenta. Therefore, then Mitra Kunci met with the Minister's Expert Staff, Caswi Rusydie, to update him on progress and to seek support for coordination between Binapenta and Binalatas with Mitra Kunci. The team also took the opportunity to report on the progress of Mitra Kunci’s technical assistance to MOM on the development of the Community BLK business model. Mr. Caswi said he would update the relevant directorates within MOM.

Working with Provincial Governments through grant programs Through the work of SINERGI and Mitra Kunci discussions with the Provincial Bappeda (regional planning and development agency), and several SOPDs (local government agencies), the Central Java Province has agreed to ensure that inclusive workforce development programs will be included in the work plan of the provincial government. Even though it is not possible to amend the RPJMD (regional medium-term development plan), there is room for flexibility in terms of implementing activities.

USAID.GOV USAID MITRA KUNCI INITIATIVE ANNUAL REPORT 2020 | 15

Throughout the SINERGI program, collaboration between the provincial government in Central Java, local businesses and the Youth Support Network in the POKSI forum has provided a networking opportunity and opened up space for DPOs to advocate for access to work and training opportunities at provincial level. In East Java, the PROGRESIF grant program has also been able to support advocacy and networking activities for DPOs.

Engaging the private sector as agents of change The role of APINDO as a national level organization representing private sector companies is also key to Mitra Kunci’s networking and advocacy strategy, and the dissemination and promotion of the GESI Guideline by APINDO to its member companies is a significant scaling opportunity.

2.4. TASK IV: PARTNERSHIP ENGAGEMENT AND KNOWLEDGE SHARING Task IV focuses on partnership engagement and knowledge sharing, learning, and coordination between Mitra Kunci partners, GOI and private sector partners, as well as between other USAID and other donor-funded activities.

2.4.1. IMPLEMENTATION OF THE MITRA KUNCI COMMUNICATION STRATEGY In Year Four, Mitra Kunci’s communication strategy aimed to promote the Penta Helix approach to collaboration on advocacy for inclusive workforce development, and to share good practices from private sector engagement. The strategy is informed by Gender Equality and Social Inclusion (GESI) and Positive Youth Development (PYD) approaches and presented through a number of knowledge management products targeted to various audiences and stakeholders. These products include but are not limited to the program’s communication materials, success stories, and archived technical documents which are to be made available offline and online.

Mitra Kunci on social media To make its knowledge management products and archive available online, Mitra Kunci uses a range of the most popular social media platforms in the Indonesian context: Twitter (@mitra_kunci), Instagram (@mitra_kunci), Facebook (https://web.facebook.com/usaidmitrakunciinitiative), Medium (https://medium.com/@mitra_kunci), as well as Archive.org (https://archive.org/details/@usaidmitrakunciinitiative).

With exception of Twitter, Mitra Kunci’s social media handles were created in December 2019. The new platforms were chosen given their varying capabilities and utilized to communicate:

• General information about the project (all handles), • The events and activities done by the program, PIs, and related stakeholders (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram), • To publish and archive stories and related technical documents (Medium, Archive.org).

To foster engagement and collaboration across its social media platforms, Mitra Kunci also incorporates hashtags in its social media posts, such as #usaidmitrakunci, #kerjainklusif, #inklusisosial, and #kkntkwu.

Aside from regular content, Mitra Kunci also aims to recognize important national and international days, that correspond directly with Mitra Kunci’s work, as news pegs for its planned content. For example, in December, Mitra Kunci’s social media handles posted articles and visual content related to International Day for Persons with Disability (December 3) and a feature on a PROGRESIF beneficiary to commemorate International Youth Day on August 12.

USAID.GOV USAID MITRA KUNCI INITIATIVE ANNUAL REPORT 2020 | 16

Since November 2019, Mitra Kunci has posted 110 tweets on Twitter, 45 posts on Instagram, 37 posts on its Facebook page, and 12 articles on Medium. It now has 68 Twitter followers, 44 Instagram followers, 121 followers on Facebook, and 3 followers on Medium.

In the fourth quarter from July to September 2020, Mitra Kunci posted 49 tweets on Twitter, 14 posts on Instagram, 14 posts on its Facebook page, and 4 articles on Medium. On average, it has received 157 impressions per day on Twitter and a 32.75% read ratio on Medium.

Screenshots of Mitra Kunci’s social media accounts, from top left to right: Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, and Medium.

Technical assistance in communications for Mitra Kunci partners. The communications team provided communications support in several ways, including: • Attending PIs and partner HEI’s events and writing up weekly highlights or content for social media posts. • Producing supporting materials such as guidelines for writing change stories for HEI partners. • Providing feedback and assistance in the development of new technical documents (e.g., GESI Guideline for private sector) and the refinement of existing ones (entrepreneurship-themed modules for higher education institutions). • Publication of repurposed Mitra Kunci Weekly Updates to USAID on appropriate social media platforms. • The KM and M&E team also collaborated with related stakeholders to develop stories for program reporting and communications purposes.

Communication activities shifted online due to COVID-19 From March 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic led to a shift in the Communication Strategy, with most staff working from home. This changed the way Mitra Kunci provided technical assistance to partners on CCLA initiatives and affected primary data collection as field travel was no longer possible, though the situation did not hinder content production and dissemination. The team was unable to travel to attend events hosted by PIs and HEI partners in person, however they were able to coordinate events, attend online meetings, workshops, webinars, and the online signing of an MOU. Development and

USAID.GOV USAID MITRA KUNCI INITIATIVE ANNUAL REPORT 2020 | 17

dissemination of knowledge products moved fully online through collecting information by phone and email interviews, documenting events by taking screenshots of online webinars and live streams, circulating newsworthy updates through WhatsApp groups, maintaining quality control of knowledge management products and cataloguing ideas for converting existing or in-development products into e- learning materials. These approaches will also help Mitra Kunci’s initiatives to be scaled more effectively in the future.

Moving fully online proved to be both a challenge and an opportunity for Communicating, Collaborating, Learning, and Adapting (CCLA) initiatives, both in terms of providing technical assistance as well as content production and dissemination. As Mitra Kunci staff continue to work from home, attending back-to-back events hosted in different cities became easier because they could do so without having to leave their homes. With almost no intercity travel, staff could attend more events and it was also easier for them to provide event coverage as soon as it happened.

The year ended on a high note with the online launch of the Guide to Equality and Inclusivity in the Workplace book, co-written with APINDO, after one year in the making. All of the meetings and most of the events related to these activities were conducted online, with the COVID-19 pandemic still ongoing in Indonesia and travel restrictions imposed to various degrees in most regions.

Improving the quality of Mitra Kunci products The Communications team provided support to collaborative editing and quality reviews of Mitra Kunci products. • Following a two-day consultative workshop for four books on KKN-TKWU and career centers co-authored by lecturers of Mitra Kunci’s HEI partners on June 10-11, 2020, the team of authors provided revisions, which were then edited by Mitra Kunci and publication-ready by October. • The Guide to Equality and Inclusivity in the Workplace book was also edited prior to its launch. • Mitra Kunci has developed an internal guideline for writing stories of change or success stories to support its HEI partners in providing deliverables related to the KKN-TKWU/PKL program, which they started using immediately. The guideline is incorporated into the FAA agreements with seven universities.

2.4.2. KUNCI COORDINATION MEETING At a Kunci Coordination meeting held in February 2020, USAID shared their consultations with key GOI stakeholders regarding the new Indonesia Country Development Cooperation Strategy (CDCS). Much of the discussion focused on understanding and adjusting to the new strategy, with key issues and questions concerning the new direction from GOI on accreditation and cross-disciplinary learning under the new Freedom Campus (Campus Merdeka), including internships at international organizations, donor organizations and private companies. Other topics included the interest of MOEC in learning how to engage second tier HEIs and link them to the private sector for internships and employment, and on how to prepare youth to be ready to work in high technology, digital skills and industry 4.0 sectors.

Due to the focus on adapting programs due to COVID-19, a Kunci Coordination meeting was not held in April or May but was finally held online on June 18, 2020 with USAID, JAPRI, YEP, RWAP and Mitra Kunci representatives including SINERGI and PROGRESIF representatives. The partners discussed how they were now working from home and adjusting program activities in response to the challenges of COVID-19, and continually reviewing progress. At this meeting, USAID outlined its plan to conduct a Kunci Performance Evaluation, to be managed by Social Impact, with the purpose of investigating and determining the effectiveness of the coordinated Kunci work and the effectiveness of the coordinated project design, management, and implementation. Each partner provided a list of resource people among

USAID.GOV USAID MITRA KUNCI INITIATIVE ANNUAL REPORT 2020 | 18

their teams, partners, grantees and beneficiaries to be interviewed by the Social Impact team. USAID detailed six key questions for interviews.

On June 19, as requested by USAID, Kunci held another Coordination Meeting to gather and learn from each other on digital transformation for their respective programs and partners and to explore potential collaboration given the limited resources available. This meeting was attended by Mitra Kunci, JAPRI, YEP and USAID representatives. RWAP was not included in this meeting as they had completed their activities and were in the project closedown phase from July-September 2020.

Examples of adjustments made by Kunci partners to adapt to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic included the following:

• Adjustment in training delivery, including development of videos and other interactive online learning tools (Mitra Kunci, JAPRI and YEP). • Use of video calls for coaching and mentoring services for young entrepreneurs to ensure that visual cues can still be registered (JAPRI and PROGRESIF) • Use of a range of online platforms reflecting partners and beneficiaries’ needs, location, internet and connectivity (All partners). • Use of online surveys through Google forms, file sharing technology (PROGRESIF) • Monitoring and quality control by phone, WhatsApp chats and calls (JAPRI, Mitra Kunci, YEP).

Although a Kunci Coordination Meeting was planned for August 2020, this had to be postponed; however, Kunci partners collaborated on the Bi-annual Report submission for Central Java and East Java Provinces that month.

2.4.3. PROVINCIAL KUNCI COORDINATION MEETINGS Mitra Kunci planned to hold a provincial coordination meeting in March alongside the workshops planned for strengthening Community BLK in each province. However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the policy of MOM to avoid face-to-face meetings this was postponed.

2.4.4. PARTICIPATION IN REGIONAL PLANNING AND BUDGETING PROCESSES Indonesia’s Regional Medium-Term Development Plans (Rencana Pembangunan Jangka Menengah Daerah/ RPJMD have already been ratified by the Regional Representative Councils (DPRD).

The Central Java Provincial RPJMD 2018-2023 was approved and ratified by the Central Java Regional House of Representatives on February 18, 2019. This process started last year and Mitra Kunci and partners were unable to provide input; however, opportunities remain open to encourage program adoption by the provincial government through ongoing inputs to draft regulations. Provincial government offices including Bappeda have also invited Kunci partners to take part in next year’s planning process which has already started, and Mitra Kunci is working to participate in planning and budgeting through coordination with the provincial government around regional regulations with budgetary implications.

Specifically, the Central Java provincial government is currently preparing regional regulations related to youth, focusing on employment. These are being discussed in Commission E of the Central Java Provincial Parliament (DPRD). Commission E covers issues related to manpower, education, youth, culture, social affairs, health and women’s empowerment, and inputs to the regulation flow from parliament to the executive. Mitra Kunci met the Central Java DPRD Commission E Chairman Abdul

USAID.GOV USAID MITRA KUNCI INITIATIVE ANNUAL REPORT 2020 | 19

Hamid on July 29, 2020 to advocate for programs for poor and vulnerable youth, then on August 5, Mitra Kunci through the SINERGI grant shared a concept and strategy with BAPPEDA and Manpower relating to IWD for inclusion in the provincial work plan for 2021. The proposed Local Regulation on Youth Participation would have a budget attached so would be a significant opportunity for scaling of IWD initiatives in Central Java, and technical input to this from Mitra Kunci and SINERGI is expected influence the content and approach taken in the final regulation.

2.4.5. MONITORING AND EVALUATION TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE TO PARTNERS SINERGI Mitra Kunci assisted the data verification process regarding data that the SINERGI grant submitted for monthly and quarterly reporting (January – March) having found inconsistencies between their narrative report and the data tables. After communication with the SINERGI M&E specialist, Mitra Kunci found that the cause of the inconsistencies was that the narrative report writer did not use the latest data from the M&E specialist. This was resolved and SINERGI undertook to improve internal communication and reporting, and from March onward all support and communication was online.

PROGRESIF In February, PROGRESIF reached out to the Mitra Kunci M&E team for inputs on pre- and post-test tools and methods to measure the improvement of knowledge and skills of their beneficiaries. Since PROGRESIF was targeting disabled youth, they needed specialized tools to measure different types of disabilities. As a result of the technical support, PROGRESIF decided to use three mechanisms: printed forms, online forms, and in-person interviews. They adapted a tool used by Mitra Kunci for this purpose which is more closely linked to the content of the training they provided. To measure increased self- efficacy, they now use the tool that Mitra Kunci developed for all partners. As above, from March onward all support and communication was conducted online.

Ministry of Manpower As explained in more detail under Section 2.3.1.5, Mitra Kunci’s M&E team provided technical assistance to MOM to develop a tool for monitoring and evaluation of Community BLK along with guidelines for using the tool.

After March, technical assistance for M&E focused on helping partners to develop strategies to achieve their established targets in spite of the slowdown in activities due to the pandemic situation. The team also worked with partners on data collection and quality of project indicators.

2.4.6. CONTENT CREATION AND SOCIAL MEDIA WORKSHOP FOR UNIVERSITIES This activity is intended to ensure that HEI partners implementing the KKN-TKWU program have the capacity to develop communication materials to support the documentation and promotion of their activities through training on social media content creation and strategy. Although originally intended to take the form of a workshop, Mitra Kunci adjusted this activity, providing ongoing online technical support and consultation instead. Communication activities are also designed to assist the advocacy efforts including the preparation of policy briefs and documentation of best practices.

Under the Fixed Award Agreement (FAA), HEIs collect data and develop a database for reporting to Mitra Kunci on key USAID indicators, develop case studies, short videos and other materials necessary to capture the results of KKN-TKWU on students and on the communities they serve. As annexes to the FAA, Mitra Kunci developed templates for the database, self-efficacy questionnaires, case study templates and guidance and templates on writing stories of change.

USAID.GOV USAID MITRA KUNCI INITIATIVE ANNUAL REPORT 2020 | 20

2.5. TASK V: LEVERAGE PUBLIC AND PRIVATE SECTOR RESOURCES Task V is focused on leveraging public and private sector resources and how Mitra Kunci and PIs can contribute to the Journey to Self-Reliance (J2SR) and scale-up by effectively leveraging the resources, capacity and commitment of the public and private sector to achieve outcome-based results.

2.5.1. EQUIPPING UNIVERSITY STUDENTS WITH ENTREPRENEURSHIP SKILLS Mitra Kunci, in coordination with MOEC and HEIs, developed a thematic student service program on entrepreneurship (KKN-TKWU) that involved a semester of classroom study on entrepreneurship with a value of two credits followed by two to six weeks (depending on the HEI) of hands-on, application of learning with community-based enterprises at the village level. Participation by students in KKN-TKWU is contingent on completion of the entrepreneurship course and achievement of two credits. In Year Four, Mitra Kunci worked with seven HEIs (after three of the original 10 HEIs were unable to fully commit to the program) aiming to reach over 21,000 students. The seven includes the universities of Jember, Padjajaran, Siliwangi, Kuningan, Muhammadiyah Malang, Surabaya, and Suryakancana. Institut Pertanian Bogor was also added in June through signing of an MOU, although a formal FAA agreement is still in progress.

Mitra Kunci expanded the KKN-TKWU program to three polytechnics (Bandung State Polytechnic, Semarang State Polytechnic, and Jember State Polytechnic), in the West, Central, and East Java provinces respectively and supported the development of the training modules to reflect the specific requirements of polytechnics, based on existing modules. Formal FAA agreements with the three polytechnics are expected in the next quarter.

To support the KKN-TKWU program, Mitra Kunci and partners have now finalized a set of books, see below.

Youth entrepreneurship and employment book series: preparing for publication On June 10-11, USAID Mitra Kunci hosted an online collaborative workshop with MOEC and HEI partners to finalize four books on youth entrepreneurship and employment, including:

• “Entrepreneurship-themed Student Community Service” Guidebook; • “Entrepreneurship” Textbook. • “Entrepreneurship Program for Bidikmisi Awardees” Reference. • “The Establishment and Development of Career Centers in Higher Education Institutions in Indonesia.” Reference.

A team of lecturers from various universities and polytechnics began developing these books in 2018, and they are expected to be launched as official publications of MOEC in late 2020. They have been reviewed by the Mitra Kunci GESI specialist to ensure that gender and social inclusion issues are integrated throughout. In advance of formal publication, the content of the Guidebook has been piloted by Mitra Kunci HEI partners through the KKN-TKWU program, and the books will be converted into e- publications so they can be more widely used, in line with Mitra Kunci’s goal to scale-up activities and as part of the Ministry’s Kampus Merdeka (Independent Campus) policy. MOEC’s Secretary of Directorate General of Higher Education, Ms. Paristiyanti Nurwardani, confirmed that the books will be used as references for joint independent research on the positive impact and best practices from the KKN- TKWU program. This will inform a new ministerial regulation making KKN-TKWU a compulsory

USAID.GOV USAID MITRA KUNCI INITIATIVE ANNUAL REPORT 2020 | 21

community service program for students under the Freedom Campus policy. See below for more details on this regulation.

Collaboration with the Ministry of Education and Culture In April, the MOEC Acting Director-General of Higher Education Prof. Nizam, and Director of Learning and Student Affairs Professor, Aris Junaidi, joined a meeting with USAID, Mitra Kunci, and partner HEIs to introduce the new Kampus Merdeka (Freedom Campus) policy and discuss the possibility of incorporating the KKN-TKWU program into Ministry policy which encourages students to explore study programs outside their faculties for three semesters with activities such as village-level community projects, humanitarian initiatives, or entrepreneurship endeavors such as KKN-TKWU. The Directorate General of Higher Education already recognizes several possible KKN activities which would support COVID-19 responses both during and after the pandemic. The meeting also focused on insights from partner HEIs and their plans and challenges related to implementing the upcoming KKN-TKWU. It also welcomed the presence of USAID Director of Human Capacity and Partnerships Thomas Crehan and Contracting Officer Representative for Mitra Kunci, Ester Manurung, who reaffirmed USAID’s commitment through Mitra Kunci to support student community service entrepreneurship programs.

USAID.GOV USAID MITRA KUNCI INITIATIVE ANNUAL REPORT 2020 | 22

Indonesia’s Ministry of Education and Culture’s Acting Director General of Higher Education Prof. Nizam and Director of Learning and Student Affairs Professor Aris Junaidi discussed KKN-TKWU with Mitra Kunci, partner HEIs and USAID.

During a Coordination Meeting of HEIs on KKN TKWU on April 29, 2020, Prof Dr. Nizam, Director General for Higher Education of MOEC delivered a keynote speech on Merdeka Belajar Kampus Merdeka Policy and Professor Dr. Aris Junaedi, Director for Learning and Student Affairs of MOEC presented the integration of KKN TKWU into Merdeka Belajar Kampus Merdeka Policy implementation. Seven universities and three polytechnics attended this coordination meeting.

2.5.1.1 TECHNICAL AGREEMENTS WITH HEIS TO IMPLEMENT KKN TKWU In the third quarter, Mitra Kunci received approval from USAID to implement Fixed Amount Award (FAA) grant agreement with seven universities, in support of their respective KKN-TKWU programs. These FAAs provide small grants ($5,000-$10,000) to cover their costs related to M&E and documentation requested by Mitra Kunci, shifting from the planned technical agreements. Prior to signature, Mitra Kunci also incorporated changes into the MOUs to respond to the need to maintain physical distancing to prevent the further spread of COVID-19.

On June 2, 2020, Mitra Kunci and Bogor Agricultural Institute (IPB) signed an MOU via an online meeting. IPB Rector Professor Arif Satria reinforced the importance of the program as an exchange between higher education institutions and society, and how knowledge that is more grounded can provide solutions to problems in society.

During the FAA agreement signing on the KKN-TKWU program with Mitra Kunci, Sujarwanto, UNESA Vice-Rector touched on the importance of the KKN-TKWU program in implementing MOEC’s Kampus Merdeka policy. The new policy calls for the students to participate in community service initiatives like this program to be implemented for up to six months and worth up to 20 credits.

USAID.GOV USAID MITRA KUNCI INITIATIVE ANNUAL REPORT 2020 | 23

USAID Mitra Kunci and Bogor Agricultural University signed a Memorandum of Understanding to mark their collaboration on the entrepreneurship-themed student community service (KKN-TKWU)

The Fixed Amount Award (FAA) agreement signing took place for all seven universities in August, 2020 through individual ceremonies.

Expansion of the KKN-TKWU program to include State Polytechnics At the request of the Ministry of Education and Culture or MOEC (formerly titled Ministry of Research, Technology, and Higher Education), the KKN-TWKU program was extended and adapted to include three polytechnic universities selected by MOEC: Jember State Polytechnic, State Polytechnic of Bandung, and State Polytechnic of Semarang. To fit the technical and vocational education focus of polytechnic universities, the KKN-TKWU was adapted to focus more specifically on job training and vocational education for the student service on entrepreneurship program (Praktek Kerja Lapangan or KKN TWKU/PKL).

From top to bottom: Directors of the Polytechncis of Bandung (POLBAN), Semarang (POLINES), and Jember (POLIJE) respectively presented their signed Memorandum of Understanding, marking the official start of their partnership with USAID Mitra Kunci on vocational student study service on entrepreneurship (PKL-TKWU), Thursday, August 13, 2020.

Pak Benny Bandanadjaya, Director of Professional and Vocational Higher Education at the Ministry of Education and Culture, who witnessed the online signing process, was looking forward to the upcoming activities to follow-up the agreement, including the possibility of scaling-up the PKL- TKWU program in nearly 40 other polytechnics across the country.

USAID.GOV USAID MITRA KUNCI INITIATIVE ANNUAL REPORT 2020 | 24

These partnerships- which were formalized through signing of MOUs- were intended to leverage the respective resources of the three Polytechnics to achieve impacts in their institutions in East Java, Central Java, and West Java during the period June 2020 – September 2021, covering KKN programs for 1,200 students and intending to reach a large number of community members in villages.

At the signing event, Supriyadi, Director of Semarang State Polytechnic (POLINES) in Semarang, Central Java, highlighted the need for a balance between hard skills and soft skills for polytechnic graduates to thrive in today’s job market. Rachmad Imbang Tritjahjono, Director of Bandung State Polytechnic (POLBAN) in Bandung, West Java, noted the significance of integrating entrepreneurship into the vocational curriculum, while pointing out how useful entrepreneurship skills are in the time of the COVID-19 pandemic. Saiful Anwar, Director of Jember State Polytechnic (POLIJE), also reinforced how the program is in line with the MOEC Freedom Campus policy. More details on the establishment of the program and its particularities can be found in 2.5.1.2, 2.5.1.3, and 2.5.1.4.

2.5.1.2 CONSULTATION MEETING TO DEVELOP A MODEL FOR ENTREPRENEURSHIP IN POLYTECHNICS Polytechnic institutions do not traditionally implement student service so the KKN-TKWU program was adapted to on-the-job training/vocational student service on entrepreneurship (Praktek Kerja Lapangan or PKL). In the first quarter, partner polytechnics adapted the KKN-TKWU model as on-the-job training/vocational student service on entrepreneurship, calling it the PKL TKWU program.

Consultation Meeting to Develop Model for Entrepreneurship in Polytechnics

Dr. Ir. Paristiyanti Nurwardani, MP, Director for Learning, Ministry of Research and Higher Education gave a briefing in a Consultation Meeting to Develop a model For Entrepreneurship in Polytechnics, October 28, 2019. She said, “Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) can use the modules developed by USAID as they are quite applicable and have already been adopted in Sumedang Regency, West Java, where it is now compulsory for every village to implement One Village One Product or Service.” She concluded her statement on a high note, “Entrepreneurship in polytechnics should be excellent and an inspiration for others. Therefore, the target for the polytechnics nationwide is to build start-ups initiated by students or lecturers and have one reach unicorn status by 2022.”

USAID.GOV USAID MITRA KUNCI INITIATIVE ANNUAL REPORT 2020 | 25

2.5.1.3 WORKSHOP TO DEVELOP AN ENTREPRENEURSHIP TRAINING MODULE FOR POLYTECHNICS In a workshop with Mitra Kunci on October 28, 2019 and at a follow up event in December 2019, the three polytechnic partners presented their thoughts, experiences, and challenges related to incorporating entrepreneurship KKN models into their academic and extracurricular activities. Bandung State Polytechnic has been conducting charity-based KKN in three surveyed villages for several years as an extracurricular initiative by the Student Executive Board (BEM). While this model has provided some assistance to villages, the polytechnics and students were looking for a model that goes beyond charity and leads to more significant economic results. By the end of the two-day workshop, the three polytechnics declared their commitment to implement on-the-job training/vocational student service on entrepreneurship (PKL/Praktik Kerja Lapangan) starting in 2020, using the existing modules developed for KKN-TKWU.

Ester Manurung delivered a speech on behalf of USAID Indonesia during a Workshop to Develop an Entrepreneurship Training Module for Polytechnic in Jakarta, December 17 - 18, 2019.

2.5.1.4 TOT ON MODULE ON ENTREPRENEURSHIP FOR LECTURERS AND STUDENTS IN POLYTECHNICS In January and February 2020 Training of Trainer courses on entrepreneurship took place at Jember State Polytechnic in East Java, the State Polytechnic of Semarang and the State Polytechnic of Bandung for 43 lecturers and 20 students each, totalling 129 lecturers and 60 students.

Mitra Kunci integrated and used the PYD approach in the PKL TKWU, engaging youth in workshops to discuss the design of the new program and in the co-facilitation of TOT workshops.

Workshop to Develop Entrepreneurship Training Module

Rahma (pictured, a student of Bandung State Polytechnic) co-facilitated a session led by Ms. Diana Sari Ph.D. in the Workshop to Develop Entrepreneurship Training Module. She noted, “The consultation meeting and workshop was very useful, especially when students were facilitating in front of lecturers. It improves character building and creates bonding and relationships. I couldn’t imagine that we could build partnership between students and lecturers in this way. This knowledge and skill is really helpful.”

2.5.2. ENGAGING THE PRIVATE SECTOR TO IMPROVE GESI AND INCLUSIVE EMPLOYMENT Lessons learned from previous series of GESI training activities demonstrate that private sector partners need a framework and practical guidance to help them meet their target of people with disabilities constituting at least one percent of their employees in particular as well as improving GESI outcomes in the workplace more broadly. The efforts of Mitra Kunci in this regard are to engage with and leverage support from the private sector, focusing on partners who show readiness to become more inclusive and to scale GESI initiatives. A key component of the Mitra Kunci strategy is to provide a bridge between private sector partners and organizations promoting the employability of PWD in particular, and this is demonstrated through the collaborative development of the “Guideline for Equality and Inclusivity in the Workplace” which was launched at the end of Year Four.

2.5.2.1 MOUS WITH PRIVATE COMPANIES To secure cooperation with the private sector with the ultimate aim of leveraging those partnerships to help youth to find new/better employment, Mitra Kunci intended to sign MOUs with APINDO, H&M and the Accor Hotel Group in Year Four. MOUs for all three were approved by USAID.

• Representing more than 500 Indonesian private sector companies from SMEs to multinationals, APINDO is Indonesia’s largest association of employers with a singular ability to scale initiatives. The MOU for APINDO was superseded by an FAA signed in the second quarter. • H&M is a high street fashion company with a supply chain of partner factories across Java which are major employers in the provinces, and the partnership with Mitra Kunci focuses on eight of those factories. The MOU for H&M was signed early in Year Four.

USAID.GOV USAID MITRA KUNCI INITIATIVE ANNUAL REPORT 2020 | 27

• While the draft MOU with to the Accor Hotel Group which manages multiple hotels throughout Java remains unsigned at the time of reporting, due to internal delays from the Accor side and also due to the major impact of COVID-19 on the tourism sector, the representative of Accor Hotels is active in the GESI Guidance development process with Mitra Kunci and APINDO.

2.5.2.2 GESI GUIDANCE FOR PRIVATE SECTOR PARTNERS In general, and attributable to the relevant law for inclusion of PWD in the workforce, Mitra Kunci found that most project partners were more interested in the inclusion of people with disabilities than in making greater strides towards gender equality or inclusion of other marginalized groups. Mitra Kunci has therefore met partners where they are in terms of priorities, though the project continues to promote and support gender equality in its training and technical assistance to partners and there is an increasing awareness and effort to recruit and include more women and provide more equal space for participation.

Development of an Inclusive Workforce Self-Assessment Tool Mitra Kunci and APINDO developed an Inclusive Workforce Self-Assessment Tool to evaluate the implementation scale of Gender Equality and Social Inclusion in companies. This Assessment Tool was adopted with some adjustments by the Accor Hotel Group to evaluate their 40 member hotels. After several discussions with the Accor Hotel Group, the assessment tools were finalized at the end of October and distributed to 40 Accor hotels in Jakarta. By December 2019, 37 Accor Hotels had completed the assessment and started using the results as a basis for GESI action plans for their hotels.

Collaborative efforts to develop the GESI Guideline are reported later in this section.

2.5.2.3 FGDS WITH DISABLED PEOPLE’S ORGANIZATIONS At the start of Year Four, Mitra Kunci began expanding its network to DPOs working on inclusive workforce issues and to assess resources available for collaboration with the private sector.

USAID.GOV USAID MITRA KUNCI INITIATIVE ANNUAL REPORT 2020 | 28

• Difalink: Difalink is an online platform that helps connect people with disabilities to employers and to mobility aids. Mitra Kunci met Difalink representatives in December 2019 to discuss the possibility of collaboration between Difalink and the private sector in recruiting people with disabilities. Difalink’s CEO (Ni Komang Ayu Suriani) showed interest in a partnership with Mitra Kunci and the potential linking of the 300 job seekers with disabilities in her database to opportunities with private sector partners.

• ThisAble: In January 2020 Mitra Kunci met Angkie Yudistia of ThisAble Enterprise, which provides training and a job placement platform for people with disabilities, to brainstorm possible collaboration between ThisAble with Mitra Kunci and its private sector network. Given the fact that Ms. Yudistia is also a member of the President of Indonesia’s Special Staff, Mitra Kunci also encouraged the adoption of the IWD model to be scaled up at the national level. Then in February, Mitra Kunci met Nicky Claraentia, Chief Operating Officer of ThisAble to develop further collaboration and sharing of connections amongst DPOs and the private sector. This was followed by a meeting brokered by Mitra Kunci between the Accor Hotel Group and another training and placement service provider, Difalink. This resulted in an agreement for Accor and Difalink to hold an Inclusive Hiring Day at the end of March 2020 for PWD to be placed in Accor hotels in Jakarta, and implementation of a Collective Labor Agreement between Accor and Difalink to implement this plan. Mitra Kunci agreed to coordinate with MOM for technical and strategic support and to share the results of the GESI Assessment completed by the Accor Group in Jakarta and surrounding areas with Difalink. Accor agreed to develop positions suitable for PWD while Difalink would begin to identify potential PWD and design the administrative selection process. Unfortunately, due to Covid-19, Accor was forced to postpone this activity due to a temporary hiring freeze in all Accor hotels in Jakarta.

• In June, 2020, Mitra Kunci hosted a specific FGD for youth with disabilities in East Java. This FGD aimed to inform the development of the EEE-PWD program in seven districts and cities starting this year. Participants joined from YAKKUM Rehabilitation Center for PWD, Roemah Difable, Bilic, Klobility and also representatives of Bank Central Asia (BCA) who were able to provide inputs as PWD. They also provided input on the draft GESI Guideline and were joined by Bahrul Fuad (Komnas Perempuan) dan Nurul Saadah (Sabda) who bring their own well- informed perspectives related to gender and disability.

2.5.2.4 FOCUS GROUP DISCUSSIONS (FGD) WITH COMPANIES TO DEVELOP INCLUSIVE WORKFORCE GUIDELINES To begin developing the much-needed GESI Guideline, Mitra Kunci initiated a series of Focus Group Discussions (FGDs) with APINDO member companies to consult them more deeply on how the Guideline could be most helpful and relevant. These meetings were held in the APINDO office and also in APINDO member company offices until COVID-19 pushed all meetings online. The costs of the in- person meetings were met by the private sector partners as their contribution to the partnership.

In November 2019 Mitra Kunci conducted the first in a series of FGDs for Developing Inclusive Workforce Guidelines with APINDO, Accor Hotel Group and H&M. The FGD consisted of representatives from APINDO, PT. JOTUN, PT. Kalbe Farma, PT. Adis Dimensions Footwear, PT. United Tractors, PT. Trans Retail Indonesia and PT. Dayalima Adisatya. PT. Jotun management volunteered to fund and organize the meeting, which resulted in a set of principles for guideline development, which should lead to Guidelines that would be:

USAID.GOV USAID MITRA KUNCI INITIATIVE ANNUAL REPORT 2020 | 29

• Technically and practically focused • Concise and easy to understand and apply in a company setting • Provide implementation activities for different levels of management in the form of a book • Include a section for senior management focusing on legal and compliance matters and Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) social impact • Interventions framed as simple, easy to carry out and include contextual options/alternatives • Include sections on the benefits of inclusivity, Do’s and Don'ts, Crisis center information, how to access or set up support groups, success stories from companies/cases studies, information on relevant stakeholders: CSOs, communities of people with disabilities, relevant government departments and other organizations.

At a later stage, the group also planned to develop a reference or knowledge management site. APINDO aimed to launch the Guidelines during their national coordination meeting in Lombok, West Nusa Tenggara in early April 2020. Unfortunately, that meeting was postponed due to COVID-19, and in June, Mitra Kunci and APINDO members discussed how the Guidelines should incorporate a response to COVID-19, since the situation called for innovative approaches to help the private sector empower vulnerable groups, including PWD. The group also considered how to leverage the banking sector and its CSR programs and/or other empowerment programs. Dipasusila Satia Utama, Senior Vice President Human Capital Relationship at Bank Central Asia (BCA), proposed the incorporation of GESI perspectives into their Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) program under one of their many village- level community entrepreneurship initiatives.

Representatives of APINDO and USAID Mitra Kunci discuss the GESI Guideline on June 26, 2020

Consulting DPOs to enhance the GESI Guidelines Meanwhile, in an effort to leverage the skills and knowledge of community DPOs, Mitra Kunci consulted a number of disability groups on the draft GESI Guidelines through a video conference on June 24, attended by representatives of various APINDO members and also included Mitra Kunci new partners from Disabled People’s Organizations (DPOs) including Yakkum and Sapda (Yogyakarta), Bilic (Bandung), and a number of young people with disabilities from Bank Central Asia (BCA) and PT. Dayalima Abisatya.

The meeting was also attended by Ibu Nora Kartika Setyaningrum, Head of Sub-directorate of Special Manpower Placement, Directorate of the Domestic Manpower Placement, and Suhardi, Head of Domestic Manpower Placement for People with Disability.

USAID.GOV USAID MITRA KUNCI INITIATIVE ANNUAL REPORT 2020 | 30

During the FGD, the team consulted a gender expert to ensure that gender perspectives were fully integrated into the GESI Guidelines, and as the expert is also a PWD she was able to further enrich the draft based on her own experience and provide insights that private sector managers would be able to take on board. Nurul Saadah, Director of Sapda, provided strong inputs on how gender analysis can provide a framework for explaining discrimination in the workplace, and how the Guide could be enhanced with a focus on the specific needs of women workers with disabilities.

2.5.2.5 MENTORING TO COMPANIES TO IMPLEMENT GESI ACTION PLANS H&M On October 8, 2019, Mitra Kunci was asked by H&M to introduce the concept of inclusive workforce development to 40 participants representing eight H&M production units in Central Java. Mitra Kunci share its approach to inclusive workforce development, including types and characteristic of disabilities, how to work with people with disabilities as well as the concept of reasonable accommodation, leading to action plan development by participants. Some set specific targets, while other focused on general human resource policy actions, summarized as follows:

• Five set a target for recruiting PWD • Five planned to develop inclusive HR policy or guidelines for their companies • Four planned to provide Reasonable Accommodation • Three planned to offer training in disability inclusion for staff • One planned to network with Disabled Peoples Organizations (DPOs)

Through an online meeting, Mitra Kunci mentored the production units (PUs) on the action plans they had developed in November 2019. Most had not been able to implement the action plans they had designed and reported difficulties in recruiting PWD. However, they remained committed to increasing the recruitment of PWD and noted the need for assistance in making corporate policies inclusive and for creating links with DPOs. Mitra Kunci therefore committed to work with H&M management to link the PUs with DPOs in order to build the network of PUs, and continues to liaise with PUs, responding to requests for input through H&M management.

Since H&M works with both Mitra Kunci and the International Labor Organization Better Work Indonesian (BWI) Program, H&M initiated this online meeting to minimize the overlap of their program activities with Mitra Kunci and BWI. As a result, Mitra Kunci agreed to focus on Central Java while BWI planned to focus on West Java. BWI, Mitra Kunci and H&M agreed to collaborate on the development e-learning modules based on the Guidelines developed with APINDO. The guideline itself was launched in September 29, 2020 by APINDO, as reported in other section of this document.

During the last quarter of Year Four of implementation, Mitra Kunci, H&M and Better Work Indonesia (BWI) created an online survey to assess the implementation of GESI Action Plan in the eight Production Units of H&M. The survey tool was developed by Mitra Kunci, H&M and BWI.

The results of the survey are as follows: • H&M has hired eight PWD staff in the past year • Some companies have started to make reasonable accommodations, including parking for people with disabilities, toilets for PWD, ramps at the factory entrance and in places of worship in the factory environment. • Some have developed SOPs related to working with PWD. • One has included subject material on equality and inclusiveness in routine training for its employees.

USAID.GOV USAID MITRA KUNCI INITIATIVE ANNUAL REPORT 2020 | 31

Mitra Kunci, H&M and Better Work Indonesia (BWI) also conducted a workshop on July 29, 2020 to discuss the updates from eight H&M PUs, who shared their initiatives related to increasing GESI in their workplaces.

Result of the meeting showed that reasonable accommodation has been made to support workers with disabilities, and further, no employees with disabilities were terminated due to COVID. Indeed, these partners continued with recruitment for eight PWD during this time.

Kalbe Farma Following Kalbe Farma’s participation in the GESI Workshop organized by Mitra Kunci in September 2019, Kalbe Farma took the initiative to conduct a one-day workshop to introduce GESI and Inclusive Workforce development to their internal group of companies. 55 participants represented 15 Kalbe Farma companies. Mitra Kunci was invited to facilitate the event and assisted in designing the action plan.

GESI Workshop in Kalbe Farma

The one-day workshop for Kalbe Farma Group was conducted using interactive and participatory approaches.

Through various simulations and role-play activities participants were invited to define gender and gender-related problems. Participants also experienced, through role play, situations faced by people with disabilities in the workplace. The session on how to interact with people with disabilities was highlighted as the most interesting one, as participants pointed out that it provided them with a better understanding about disability. However, they also admitted that they still need a more comprehensive understanding of how to interact with people with disabilities in workplace settings.

The participants of the workshop developed action plans for their companies/units under Kalbe Farma, including developing their HR policy to be more inclusive, filling more positions with PWD and preparing Reasonable Accommodation, providing assistive devices, offering training and outreach to raise staff awareness of the need for and value of inclusivity, and to benchmark against companies that are already inclusive. In February 2020 Kalbe Farma Corporate Recruitment Team followed up on this and identified positions that could be filled by PWD as Administration, Technician, and Laboratory Staff. Mitra Kunci offered to link Kalbe Farma with Kerjabilitas.com to match qualified PWD with available jobs. Kalbe Farma also started to take steps to provide reasonable accommodation for PWD. For example, the toilets and doors of their office building are not yet accessible to wheelchair users so Kalbe

USAID.GOV USAID MITRA KUNCI INITIATIVE ANNUAL REPORT 2020 | 32

Farma took the temporary step of assigning staff to assist their access. They plan to take more concrete steps in the future.

Representatives of Kalbe Farma Tbk played an active role in the finalization of Guideline for Equality and Inclusivity in the Workplace along with other company representatives. Kalbe hosted one of the Guideline development meetings in their offices in March 2020.

2.5.2.6 SOCIAL COMPLIANCE WORKSHOP The activity was postponed until December 2020, due to COVID-19 which made it impossible to carry out activities offline, as the training activities were designed to involve exercises related to planning and implementing physical and non-physical reasonable accommodation. During the fourth quarter, Mitra Kunci and APINDO started preparing training modules for this workshop, based on the Guideline for Equality and Inclusivity in the Workplace.

2.5.2.7 CEO MEETING (IWD) After discussion with APINDO, it was agreed that it would be more strategic and realistic to convert this event into several activities involving the CEOs of APINDO company members, including the launch of Guideline for Equality and Inclusivity in the Workplace in September 2020 that involved the Chairman of APINDO who is also CEO of the Sahid Jawa Hotel Group and Mr. Harijanto, CEO of PT. Adis Dimensions Footwear.

2.6. PROJECT IMPLEMENTERS RESULTS • SINERGI was led by the Rajawali Foundation in collaboration with Transformasi. The second, full implementation phase of this project started on April 1, 2019 and ended in September 2020, focusing on working with local government and the private sector to advocate for inclusive workforce development and coordination among the four pillars (4P): Government, Private Sector, Youth and Capacity Provider (Pemerintah, Perusahaan, Pelatihan, Pemuda). • PROGRESIF is led and implemented by Saujana. This program started on October 15, 2019 and continued through September 2020 with an NCE to December 2020, with the aim of improving the inclusive employment system in Indonesia in collaboration with national BLKs, partnering with job providers, and increasing the job readiness of youth with disabilities. • Increasing Inclusive Workforce Development for Private Sector, implemented by APINDO from February 17 to September 30, 2020, worked with 20-30 of its member companies to promote and improve the inclusivity of their hiring and HR policies so that they promote GESI in their companies and with their partners.

2.6.1. SINERGI SINERGI continued to work with the local government and private sector to advocate inclusive workforce development and coordination among the four pillars (4P): Government, Private Sector, Youth and Capacity Provider (Pemerintah, Perusahaan, Pelatihan, Pemuda).

Highlights By the end of its grant-funded program, the SINERGI grant had achieved the following results, contributing to Mitra Kunci’s overall results as follows:

The table above shows that the SINERGI grant has made significant contributions to the achievement of Mitra Kunci’s target, particularly by contributing nearly half of the target for individuals accessing program activities, nearly half of the resources leveraged from public or private sector partners and workforce development partnerships and over half of the companies participating in workforce development programs. Most outstandingly, the SINERGI grant helped Mitra Kunci surpass its target of publication of skills development and employoment opportunies, exceeding the overall target by more than 13 times.

In terms of GESI in the SINERGI grant program,

• Of the 13 YSN members who attended the YSN reorientation activities, eight were women (61.53%). One of the 13 YSN members who attended was a PWD. • Of the 106 young people who were successfully reached offline (limited visits), 59 were women (55.66%), and eight of them were PWD. • Of the 138 young people who were reached online by YSN, 60 were women (43.47%)

Additionally, as a result of coordination with SINERGI, the local Manpower department revealed its plan to hold a Special Job Fair so that young people from rural areas can get jobs, and showed enthusiasm to use the Rencanamu platform (a talent development and recruitment platform that help increase students and graduates employability and connect them to various job opportunities) for that purpose. Manpower plans to integrate Rencanamu into existing applications such as ayokitakerja.kemnaker.go.id and bursakerja.jatengprov.go.id.

The following section summarizes the three main activities completed by the SINERGI grant this year, including inclusive job fairs, the Youth Support Network, and POKSI.

Inclusive Job Fairs for Youth in Central Java

Kebumen, November 5-6, 2019

Over 1,900 young people attended SINERGI’s Inclusive Job Fair in Kebumen District, Central Java on November 5-6, 2019.

USAID.GOV USAID MITRA KUNCI INITIATIVE ANNUAL REPORT 2020 | 34

Youth with Disabilities presenting at Kebumen Youth Fair

Awaludin (left, sitting), did not let his disability stop him from giving sign language interpretation during a session during the SINERGI Youth Festival Central Java. Awaludin, a sign language interpreter with a disability who went on stage to provide the interpretation for the career sessions and talks, expressed his pride in his work. “I really want to continue doing sign language interpretation in the future. However, my present challenge is in getting more opportunities in the neighborhood,” said Awaludin.

Local government representatives welcomed the initiative: “We will review the outcome of this job fair and report it to the Head of Kebumen District, to use as an input to improve our policies on developing more inclusive workforce,” stated Dwi Budi Satrio, Head of District Social Welfare Office of Kebumen District, during the event. During the two-day fair, youth had the chance to visit booths from 45 participating companies, apply for one of the 5,000 jobs posted and also try out the new job seekers’ assessment portal rencanamu.id, which provided them with a free opportunity to assess their skills, develop a profile and see if it matched available opportunities. While the fair highlighted the importance of inclusive workforce development and participation of persons with disabilities, it also accommodated the job-seeking need of poor and vulnerable youth without disabilities, who formed the majority of visitors.

One of the presenters was Bayu, a person with disability who is employed at the convenience store chain Alfamart. Bayu also manned Alfamart’s exhibition booth at the festival and introduced his company’s initiatives in recruiting persons with disability and creating a more inclusive working environment through partnership with the SINERGI grant program. “People with disabilities are not supposed to be treated exclusively as it can cause discrimination in the workplace and lack of support from their non-disabled co-workers,” stated Bayu. Other speakers included Erix Soekamti of the popular Indonesian music group Endank Soekamti, who founded Diary of Erix Soekamti (DOES) University which provides free non-formal education, and Irma Suryanti, an entrepreneur with a disability.

Solo, December 4, 2019 The goal of the youth festival was to match vulnerable youth including those with disabilities who are seeking training and job opportunities with companies looking for workers to fill available job vacancies. Over 7,500 youth attended the festival, coming from Surakarta and neighboring districts such as Sragen, Boyolali, Salatiga, and Rembang.

USAID.GOV USAID MITRA KUNCI INITIATIVE ANNUAL REPORT 2020 | 35

The Rencanamu portal

Youth were invited to register and assess their skills in the Rencanamu portal. In total, 5,311 job seekers signed up on Rencanamu (1,900 in Kebumen and 3,411 in Solo). There were two talk shows and educational sessions on topics including: preparing to enter the work world, preparing CVs, interviewing, and how to access capital for businesses. More than 120 companies and training providers in the field of manufacturing, textiles/garment, logistics, tourism, telecommunication, financing etc. participated in the festival, with of the ten companies already categorized as being inclusive.

The Deputy Mayor, representatives of the Ministry of Manpower office, and representatives of technical offices from the SINERGI partner districts such as the head of Boyolali District Social Affairs Office attended the opening session of the fair.

The second day of the fair kicked off with a dialogue session led by Central Java Governor Ganjar Pranowo, who reiterated his commitment to promote a working environment which leaves no one behind, including people with disabilities. “We need to strengthen our existing regulations,” he said, citing Law 8/2016 (Law on Disability) which has mandated that at least 2% of central and local government employees be people with disabilities.

Meanwhile, in a dialogue with participants, the Director of Human Capacity and Partnerships at USAID Indonesia, Thomas Crehan, had the opportunity to introduce the role of USAID in youth empowerment in Indonesia as a part of bilateral partnership between the government of Indonesia and the United States.

Rembang, February 26-27, 2020

The third Inclusive Job Fair took place in Rembang in two subdistricts, to ensure wide participation. The district government contributed to accommodation and logistics for the activities and appreciated the outreach efforts made by SINERGI.

Twelve companies participated and posted more than 5,693 job opportunities and 2,720 skills development opportunities or internships. In addition, all companies opened vacancies for PWD. Of the initial 849 youth who completed the assessment, 221 also attended the festival. An additional 108 young people who had not taken part in the assessment but learned of the event also participated. 10

USAID.GOV USAID MITRA KUNCI INITIATIVE ANNUAL REPORT 2020 | 36

participants were people with disabilities. Of the 329 youth who attended, 188 (57%) were men, 141 (43%) women and 10 were youth with disabilities.

Youth participant at the Rembang Job Fair

Andrean Dwi Saputra, a student of Sailing Vocational School from Kec. Sarang: "Assessment Recanamu really helped us young people to determine work according to their interests. I was directed by Alfamart, so later I will apply to Alfamart. I also took a class on how to make a CV and apply for a job. The information provided really helped me to get a job faster."

Between February 10-25, the SINERGI team and 12 Youth Support Network (YSN) members conducted an interest and talent assessment through the “Rencanamu” Platform in 37 villages in 14 sub- districts in Rembang. The assessment reached out to poor and vulnerable (P&V) youth in remote villages. 849 young people went on to fill out the assessment either through paper forms or online through the Rencanamu application, and this was followed by job matching, to identify the fields/types of work that are of interest to young people, and this then led to the selection of potential partner companies who could hire the youth. When the Fair took place, 91% of the youth were matched with companies, and the remaining 9% were able to attend to see if they could find an opportunity. The company participants were selected through interviews to establish their inclusivity and readiness to include PWD and Human Resources representatives from each company were given a briefing by SINERGI representatives on how to be more inclusive and accommodate the needs of PWD.

After the event, the team shared the employment data for the 849 young people with the companies as a database for future recruitment.

The Rembang fair did not generate as many participants as previous events, likely due to its size and relative remoteness. However, efforts were made to make the event accessible, working with the Rembang branch of the Indonesian Association of Persons with Disabilities (PPDI) and the Rembang Multi-Disability (DMKR) to build wheelchair ramps at the location. They also provided various inputs on how to make the fair more inclusive - for example providing accessible toilets. In addition, they helped to recruit youth with disabilities to participate in the educational classes at the festival, including sessions on CV writing and interviewing techniques.

Regent of Rembang, H. Abdul Hafidz motivates young people with disabilities.

The Rembang fair did not generate as many participants as previous events, perhaps due to its size and relative remoteness. However, efforts were made to make the event accessible, working with the Rembang branch of the Indonesian Association of Persons with Disabilities (PPDI) and the Rembang Multi-Disability (DMKR) to build wheelchair ramps at the location. They also provided various inputs on how to make the fair more inclusive - for example providing accessible toilets. In addition, they helped to recruit youth with disabilities to participate in the educational classes at the festival, including sessions on CV writing and interviewing techniques.

Youth Support Network The Youth Support Network is a voluntary youth group supported by SINERGI that reaches out to youth, alerting them to job fairs and training opportunities and supporting them as they go through training and seek employment. The contribution of the Youth Support Network (YSN) in inclusive workforce environment was recognized by the Governor of Central Java, Ganjar Pranowo, during the Inclusive Job Fair in Solo, and his Team for Development Acceleration (TGUPP) is working with the Provincial Office for Youth, Sport, and Tourism to obtain a budget allocation and other support to utilize the YSN for inclusive workforce development programs after the SINERGI project ends.

YSN is part of the POKSI forum, see below, along with other member such as private sector representatives, training centers and workforce related local government offices. YSN representatives offered their perceptions and suggestions regarding the needs of youth at one of the POKSI meetings in early 2020. They noted that assessments that help youth recognize their strengths are critical for young people and especially P&V youth because they often lack self-knowledge so can have a hard time finding jobs that they are qualified for.

Following the shift to online work in July, the SINERGI team re-orientated the Youth Support Network (YSN) team and developed a new outreach plan to provide access to work information. They also refreshed their knowledge of the YSN modules on ten topics (see below for more about this guide).

The YSN leaders also act as facilitators for youth at the event to provide motivation and direct them to companies that matched their interests and talents.

USAID.GOV USAID MITRA KUNCI INITIATIVE ANNUAL REPORT 2020 | 38

Re-orientation of the Youth Support Network

Ruki Riandhini, Team member of YSN SINERGI: "It's great that SINERGI is present in Rembang, because young people in Rembang really need access to information on employment. I hope that young people can get a job, thereby reducing unemployment and they can be more productive. "

One of the youths assisted by YSN noted that “when we talk to them it is like chatting with your own friends, we can ask questions freely”. Soim Ramadhan, Kabupaten Semarang

Youth Support Network (YSN) Guide SINERGI relied on the Youth Support Network (YSN) to reach P&V youth throughout Central Java, especially in remote areas, conveying information on mainstreaming P&V youth into the labor market and sharing job information, including from SINERGI partner companies and informing them about training opportunities with government agencies. They also organized inclusive job fairs and Youth Festivals, assessed talents and interests through the Rencanamu platform and acted as mentors and coaches to P&V Youth, including young people with disabilities, promoting inclusiveness and Positive Youth Development (PYD).

To support the YSN, the SINERGI team developed a draft guide for YSN members containing ten modules on Interests and Talents; Gender; Social Inclusion and PYD; Working readiness; Entrepreneurial Readiness; Work Card; Corporate and Entrepreneurial Work Culture; Strengthening Positive Character; Building Success; Work Ethics; and Submitting Job Opportunity Information. The content was developed with inputs from multiple sources including youth participants in SINERGI activities. Once this draft is finalized, the SINERGI team will coach the YSN team on how to use it with P&V youth.

Project implementation The SINERGI full implementation phase grant ended on September 29, 2020. All field activities ended in July 2020, and the SINERGI office in Kota Semarang was closed.

Beneficiary Tracking The team conducted beneficiary tracking of more than 7,000 young people after the series of inclusive job fairs in Kebumen, Solo Raya and Rembang. Tracking involved a series of self-assessments, education

USAID.GOV USAID MITRA KUNCI INITIATIVE ANNUAL REPORT 2020 | 39

classes in the inclusive job market, and direct interview sessions from SINERGI partner companies carried out jointly by the entire SINERGI team and the Youth Support Network (YSN) team in the field.

Impact of Covid-19 on SINERGI The spread of the COVID-19 virus and Large-Scale Social Restrictions (PSBB) had a significant impact on the work of the SINERGI team. On March 16, 2020, SINERGI implemented a partial work-from-home policy, which was made into a full remote-work policy a week later. Nonetheless, the teams in Jakarta and Semarang along with the YSN team continued to monitor the development of project beneficiaries through telephone and the WhatsApp application.

Until mid-June 2020, the SINERGI team was obliged to work from home (WFH). With the June 2020 government announcement of the entry into force of the New Normal or New Normal Life Order (Transitional PSBB in DKI Jakarta Province), some members of the SINERGI team in Jakarta and Semarang began working from the office where possible.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, many industries had to stop operating temporarily and lay off staff. In general, during this quarter, COVID-19 meant limited opportunities for YSN to go directly to the field to reach P&V Youth. In response to this challenge the YSN team had to adapt and increase their capacity in all matters relating to online outreach methods, such as Zoom, Skype, and other, and as a result, now all activities are online and the YSN continues to maintain, monitor and motivate its members.

Data collection became a challenge for the SINERGI team who had to rely on follow-up calls to participants in the Inclusive Job Exchange from Kebumen, Solo Raya and Rembang before the pandemic further impacted the industry in Central Java. Not all respondents were ready to provide details on where they are working now on the phone, but only indicated the sector. SINERGI partner HRD company, SriTex, gave SINERGI a list of names and phone numbers of participants that they recruited from the Kebumen and Solo Raya Inclusive Job Fair so that SINERGI could follow up on beneficiaries.

Next steps On August 5, SINERGI officially submitted a concept and strategy for the integration of Inclusive Workforce Development (IWD) into the Central Java Province planning document (regional government work plan / RKPD 2021) to BAPPEDA and the Department of Manpower.

The SINERGI online Debriefing Meeting on August 19, 2020, included representatives of stakeholders in Central Java, including government representatives and YSN. They concluded that follow up needs to support the continuation of POKSI as a valuable multi-stakeholder platform, integration of IWD concepts and strategies into regional planning (RKPD 2021), and the potential to adopt the Rencanamu system. The provincial government would also like to bring the YSN network under the wings of its social welfare volunteer program.

Following up these activities and with the assistance of a project officer under PLAN, Mitra Kunci has coordinated with the Central Java Manpower Office, Commission E of the Central Java Regional Parliament (DPRD), and several Youth Support Network members aiming to build on the success of the project and maximize training support and job opportunities for P&V youth that have been reached by the IWD program and mainstreaming the IWD program and the PYD approach through a draft regional regulation on youth participation currently being prepared by Commission E of the Central Java DPRD. This advocacy has opened the door for continuation of SINERGI’s best models, for integration into provincial government plans.

2.6.2. PROGRESIF Highlights By the end of August 2020, PROGRESIF had trained 118 out of its target of 150 youth with disabilities, and 37 had begun work, 21 in the formal sector and 16 informally. Two of those who gained formal employment used kerjabilitas.com to apply for the jobs.

The PROGRESIF team reached 20 job providers with technical assistance who then opened 30 job opportunities for PWD. Of those 20 job providers, 14 are located on the island of Java.The project was well documented by Ahmad Zulakarnaen, a BLK student and PWD from BLK Banyuwangi who took photos to illustrate inclusive workforce development on his Instagram page, https://www.instagram.com/bangdzoel_/?hl=id

PROGRESIF’s contribution to Mitra Kunci has been significant as they have focused their work on youth with disabilities and on transforming two BLKs into inclusive training centers: in this sense their work has been deep rather than broad. They have also contributed to nearly half of the target number of companies participating in workforce development programs, see below:

Table 4 PROGRESIF’s contribution to Mitra Kunci targets Mitra Kunci PROGRESIF No Mitra Kunci indicator target contribution 2.1 Number of individuals accessing the Mitra Kunci Program Activities increase 55,000 234 2.2 Number of individuals who complete USG-assisted workforce development 27,577 153 programs 2.3 Number of individuals with improved skills following completion of USG- 24,325 144 assisted workforce development programs 2.4 Number of individuals with new or better employment following completion 6,491 40 of USG-assisted workforce development programs 3.2 Number of workforce development partnerships developed 105 2 4.1 Number of Skills Development and Employment Opportunities publicized 1600 308 5.2 Number of youth trained in social or leadership skills 27,577 118 through USG assisted programs 6.1 Number of companies participating in workforce development programs 462 181

Below we summarize the key activities of the PROGRESIF grant program: supporting inclusive BLKs in Sidoarjo and Banyuwangi, job preparation training for youth in both locations, career coaching and mentoring, youth meetings, and linking youth with disabilities to job opportunities.

Supporting inclusive BLKs Sidoarjo, East Java

Improving accessibility In November 2019, PROGRESIF carried out an accessibility audit in coordination with the Head of theAdministration Section of the BLK and Mr. Karsono, a BLK Sidoarjo instructor who had recently transferred from BLK Surakarta. He led the assessment using his previous experience in improving accessibility at BLK Surakarta— ensuring universal design for learning principles (UDL) that guide the design of teaching and learning so that all have an equal opportunity to learn—were applied. His recommendations included installation of ramps and toilets with seats and preferential parking for PWD and also ground floor accommodation for PWD in the newly built dormitory.

USAID.GOV USAID MITRA KUNCI INITIATIVE ANNUAL REPORT 2020 | 41

Following the accessibility audit, BLK Sidoarjo set up a team to implement reasonable accommodation in their facilities. They made improvements to accommodate students with disabilities, building access ramps for the main building, training facilities and canteen, disability friendly toilets and easier access to the main public area and adding a new dedicated parking area near the classrooms. Sidoarjo was then able to accommodate two students with disabilities in the August training course.

Improvement of BLK Facilities

Before During Renovation

ToT for instructors and staff of BLK Sidoarjo PROGRESIF held a four-day ToT for instructors and staff of BLK Sidoarjo in December 2019, for 15 instructors and three security guards. Participants were invited by a team of facilitators to explore four core themes, namely: Diversity and Inclusion, Adult and Experiential Learning, Creative and Inclusive Facilitation Skills, and Conducting Disability Inclusive Training. Three young PWD alumni from the former Ayo Inklusif! grant assisted them. The three security guards were invited to ensure that they increased their understanding of disability and could help students with disabilities who would enroll at BLK Sidoarjo.

Instructors learned facilitation techniques and were provided with various methods and tools. Each participant was then challenged to deliver mini sessions whose topics were taken from the BLK soft skills module and had to be delivered without visual and power point methods.

PROGRESIF also facilitated a session how to use and access a screen reader to help participants understand how the blind access information with technology.

PROGRESIF invited five youths with various types of disabilities, including hearing impairment, physical disability, blindness, and multi-disability. These five youths participated in facilitation practice sessions by BLK Sidoarjo instructors and staff and provided input on the delivery methods and tools used for training people with disabilities.

In closing, participants were invited to map out obstacles for trainees in BLK Sidoarjo, and designed support to reduce them and thus increase accessibility.

Job Preparedness Training for disabled youth in Sidoarjo The training course was advertised in January 2020 through Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook and via communication with Disabled People Organizations (DPOs). Through January 20, 57 disabled youth (19 female and 38 male) registered. Criteria for participation selection included the following:

• Youth with physical or sensory (hearing or sight impairment) disabilities with independent mobility • Aged between 18-34 years

USAID.GOV USAID MITRA KUNCI INITIATIVE ANNUAL REPORT 2020 | 42

• Living in East Java • Not in Education, Employment, or Training (NEET) • Minimum high school degree or equivalent • Committed to participating in PROGRESIF activities and actively looking for a job • Supported by parents or family

PROGRESIF interviewed all applicants who met the criteria online through video and when necessary, assisted by a sign interpreter to assess their motivation to join the project, their motivation to work, and daily mobility, then selected the candidates who were most motivated and in need of support. PROGRESIF also strongly weighted gender equity when selecting candidates. The selected candidates included 42 PWD from East Java and 15 from outside the province: Jakarta, Central Java, Sulawesi and West Java (28 blind, three with other visual impairments, 20 with hearing impairments, three with cerebral palsy, one with a speech disability and two with moderate cognitive disabilities). 54% had high school degrees, 13% had bachelor’s degrees, 11.5% had non-degree higher education and the rest were varied, including persons from rehabilitation centers. 80% of the participants have had jobs previously.

In Sidoarjo, the training took place from February 24 – 28, 2020, and was attended by 25 participants who learned about self-awareness, teamwork in workplace settings, leadership, career basics, career self-assessment, introduction to the job market, and ethics and skills on the job. This served as a pre- training before they could start vocational training in BLKs.

The module was adapted from those developed by Saujana under the Ayo Inklusif! grant, Youth Camp and Basic Skill Training. PROGRESIF applied participatory adult learning techniques and made use of a buddy system, pairing two participants with different disabilities to mutually support each other, with the goal of participants maintaining their buddies even after the training is over. By the end of the training all 25 participants were tested and had demonstrated improved skills and received certificates. The facilitators of this training included facilitators from various backgrounds such as the Social Welfare Office, from a Disabled People’s Organization (DPO), disabled youth, a representative from BLK Sidoarjo, alumni of the above-mentioned TOT for BLK, and a Human Resources Officer from an employer, Tabloid Nyata.

PROGRESIF then followed up by supporting the course graduates in their efforts to gain work experience by giving them a “PROGRESIF Cadre Resume” containing their biodata, peer review, career feedback and recommendations for up-skilling. As a result, seven of the alumni (three female and four male) were accepted in a BLK: five in BLK Sidoarjo (two in the Cellphone Technician Class, two in Computer Operator Assistant and one in Motorcycle Tune Up Class); one in BLK Surabaya (Office Administration Class); and one in BLK Banyuwangi (Graphic Design Class). The COVID-19 pandemic impacted the follow-up process as many BLKs temporarily stopped their courses. 16 PROGRESIF cadres/alumni were placed as staff or apprentices with Kerjabilitas.com partners, and two continued to higher education, all with PROGRESIF support.

Banyuwangi, East Java

Improving accessibility PROGRESIF conducted an accessibility audit with BLK Banyuwangi and one instructor from BLK Sidoarjo, Mr. Karsono, who led the audit in December 2019. At this time, construction of a hall and another training building was underway so PROGRESIF was eager to ensure that universal design for learning principles were applied. The Director of the BLK led the improvement team himself and took on board the recommendations to build ramps and ensure that training rooms on the ground floor are

USAID.GOV USAID MITRA KUNCI INITIATIVE ANNUAL REPORT 2020 | 43

accessible. Banyuwangi is still improving its accessibility and can accommodate students with disability in three courses: sewing, food processing and graphic design.

ToT for instructors and staff of BLK Banyuwangi The ToT for instructors and staff of BLK Banyuwangi was held from Jan 6 – 10. Participants included 11 instructors, three security staff plus three instructors of BLK Surakarta and three instructors from Community BLKs in the BLK Banyuwangi network. Three instructors from BLK Surakarta were invited because BLK Surakarta was the first inclusive BLK in Indonesia and has demonstrated success in training PWD and providing reasonable accommodation. BLK Surakarta was also interested in expanding the number of instructors who are trained to train PWD and provided their own transport costs.

The ToT covered the same topics as the previous one in Sidoarjo, and was facilitated by Rubby Emir, Tety Sianipar, and Beauty Sofranita of Saujana and three disabled youth (including two alumni of Ayo Inklusif!). As a result of the ToT, 20 instructors, three security guards and three BLK Banyuwangi staff have skills in conducting inclusive training and providing assistance to PWD during training sessions, and an action plan to provide reasonable accommodation in BLK Banyuwangi had been drafted.

Job Preparedness Training for youth with disabilities in Banyuwangi The Banyuwangi selection process and the training content followed the process used in Sidoarjo (noted above). PROGRESIF selected 25 participants (11 female and 14 male), all from East Java, 13 participants had a physical disability, five had a visual impairment, and seven had a hearing impairment. 16 had a high school education, five had junior high school education, two had non-degree higher education and one had a bachelor’s degree. 18 participants were previously employed.

Role playing in delivering inclusive training sessions is one of the methods in ToT for BLK Banyuwangi instructors

Towards the end of Year Four, the Banyuwangi Job and Preparedness Training included 19 participants over five days. Activities deemed impossible to be delivered online (such as activities for self-recognition and acceptance) were delivered offline. Meanwhile, technical activities (such as preparation of job application documents) were conducted online.

Coordination with Job Providers In December Saujana began identifying potential employers of PWD in Surabaya and Malang, starting with phone calls to establish interest, followed by visits to obtain commitment to inclusive hiring practices and the opening of opportunities for PWD. Five job providers were open to collaboration with PROGRESIF and they made sales and marketing, operations and call center positions open to people with disabilities. Of the five job providers, two job providers were also willing to provide apprenticeship programs for PWD.

Malang District Manpower Office held a two days job fair in from November 2019 with 30 participants, with PROGRESIF contributing to participant travel costs as part of the project’s outreach and to promote inclusive employment for people with disabilities amongst employers. This event was not accessible for PWD and did not attract many job seekers, and only one PWD, so was ultimately only useful as a lesson learned for the team.

In February, PROGRESIF connected with APINDO in Sidoarjo and the Indonesian Chamber of Commerce and Industry (Kamar Dagang dan Industri or KADIN) of East Java and obtained the interest of four additional companies.

PROGRESIF Virtual Job Fair PROGRESIF also held a Virtual Job Fair on September 10, 2020, distributing inclusive job vacancies from kerjabilitas.com, to reach and connect job seekers with disabilities as well as to increase the knowledge of job seekers with disabilities about the world of wor, disseminating inclusive job vacancies from kerjabilitas.com and a job matching list that was used by youth with disabilities to identify suitable jobs. The outcomes of this activity will be reported in the next quarter.

Promotion of PROGRESIF Virtual Job Fair on Social Media and the participants

Promoting kerjabilitas.com PROGRESIF conducted outreach to 75 companies through phone calls, email and mobile chat and they agreed to recruit PWD and register on kerjabilitas.com. 129 new job opportunities were posted in Kerjabilitas.com itself, 33 of which were located in East Java.

PROGRESIF continued to coordinate with job providers and successfully endorsed 73 job providers which then allocated 89 job opportunities for PWD through the online platform kerjabilitas.com. Three of these job providers are located in East Java. PROGRESIF provided technical assistance to 18 job providers in the area of recruitment. Two job providers provided opportunities for paid internships. Due to the pandemic, these were conducted online. To reduce delays in response, communication with job providers utilized chat/messaging app, email and phone calls. In addition to seeking information on job opportunities, the team also shared information on the availability of job seekers with disabilities who had already been trained.

120 alumni CVs were sent to job providers in the list below and to other job providers through kerjabilitas.com. The job providers who were contacted and agreed to recruit PROGRESIF alumni as new staff or paid interns included:

Youth Meetings After several delays due to the pandemic, PROGRESIF decided to conduct the planned youth meeting online using Google Meet. 18 participants attended the 1.5-hour session on May 6-8, aimed at providing support and sharing experiences on finding work and using the buddy system. Participants were youth who had previously participated in PROGRESIF interventions to track their progress and support experience sharing for alumni who already had jobs or are self-employed with others who did not, to motivate them.

USAID.GOV USAID MITRA KUNCI INITIATIVE ANNUAL REPORT 2020 | 46

Youth shared experience, information and tips through the PROGRESIF Youth Meeting.

Career Coaching and Mentoring Career coaching and mentoring was targeted at semi-skilled participants – i.e., participants who already attended degree or non-degree higher education. In March 2020, PROGRESIF developed a module for career coaching and mentoring for both offline and online use. The content was designed to assist the training participants to better prepare for employment, covering:

Career Basics Career Mapping Introduction to Job Job Interview skills Applications

Types of Jobs and Career Planning Introduction to the Optimal use of Careers Job Market Kerjabilitas.com

PROGRESIF reached out to its network of DPO and users of the Kerjabilitas.com platform to promote this opportunity, and 52 youth with disabilities registered (23 females and 29 males).

Due to the pandemic, sessions were held online using Google Meets as it was considered to have a stable connection and to be easy to use. PROGRESIF completed career coaching sessions with 54 youths with disabilities, and by the end of June, 25 alumni had successfully obtained jobs or become self- employed. This number increased to 27 by the end of Year Four. Career coaching events were conducted in several batches and in addition to using the module, facilitators gave daily assignments on topics such as personal career plans, preparing a CV and application letter. These documents were then collected to be used in job matching activities, sending them to job providers in the PROGRESIF network.

Participants filled the online Self-Efficacy form, Pre-test, Post-test and Informed consent forms using e- signatures. In this last quarter, PROGRESIF provided Online Career Online Coaching in classes, with the average number of participants in each class were 11 youths with disabilities.

Online Career Coaching conducted by PROGRESIF

Project implementation PROGRESIF began on October 15, 2019, managed by Saujana, with the aim of improving the inclusive employment system in Indonesia in collaboration with national BLKs, partnering with job providers, and increasing the readiness of youth with disabilities for employment.

On 4 November 2019, Mitra Kunci hosted four staff from Saujana at their office to kick off PROGRESIF. Mitra Kunci went through the requirements of the grant, reporting formats and processes and provided an overview of the principles of GESI and the PYD approach to all PROGRESIF project personnel.

BLK Sidoarjo and BLK Banyuwangi were selected as partners due to their location in East Java.

During the first three months of the project, PROGRESIF met the Head of the Sidoarjo BLK Training Organizing Section and the Head of BLK Banyuwangi. Immediately after these meetings, Saujana carried out accessibility audits at the two BLKs and discussed how to make them more inclusive and accessible. BLK Sidoarjo and BLK Banyuwangi invited PROGRESIF to support construction planning to ensure physical accessibility. In addition, BLK Sidoarjo was also interested in PROGRESIF support for job placement through kerjabilitas.com. PROGRESIF introduced the project to the Director of BLK Banyuwangi in December 2019 and he welcomed the project and agreed to conduct a ToT in January 2021. BLK Banyuwangi is a new BLK, like BLK Sidoarjo, with eight instructors with five additional instructors from Community BLKs and LPK who could be included in the ToT.

By quarter three both Sidoarjo and Banyuwangi moved from planning to project implementation, following accessibility assessments and recommendation development, however all BLKs were closed during the COVID-19 period and anticipated re-opening in July. They opened again in quarter four and resumed courses as planned.

Coordination and collaboration with other organizations PROGRESIF made links with a range of organizations, including the Social Welfare Office of Banyuwangi, which led to a representative participating in the Job Preparedness Training as a facilitator. The team also connected with the District Development Planning Office and the Career Development Center (CDC) of Polytechnic Banyuwangi, and the CDC of the University Airlangga.

UNAIR Career Development Center expressed interest in collaborating with PROGRESIF on career coaching activities. UNAIR also has a career coaching program and they agreed to allow PROGRESIF beneficiaries to attend their coaching and to use their facilities to conduct coaching activities.

2.6.3. APINDO Highlights The partnership with APINDO has resulted in the publication of the Guideline for Equality and Inclusivity in the Workplace which was launched at the end of Year Four at an event described in Feature Stories.

Main activities APINDO member companies hosted and organized a series of Focus Group Discussions (FGD) to collaboratively develop a guideline for private sector companies to increase inclusivity in the workplace, with technical input from Mitra Kunci. The first event was hosted by PT Jotun, and contributing writers came from APINDO members PT. Jotun, PT. Kalbe Farma, PT. Adis Dimensions Footwear, PT. United Tractors, PT. Trans Retail Indonesia and PT. Dayalima Adisatya. This workshop set the framework for the guidelines through an agreed set of principles and an action plan.

A second FGD in the APINDO office on February 2, 2020 was attended by representatives from the private sector and two resource persons who were asked for their inputs on the first draft of GESI Guidance, including Pak Bahrul Fuad, Commissioner of the National Commission on Violence against Women who provided input on inclusiveness for people with disabilities in the workplace and Bu Indry Suparno, former Commissioner, to provide input related to Gender Equality in the workplace.

Focus Group Discussion (FGD) for Developing an Inclusive Workforce Guideline, November 2019

USAID.GOV USAID MITRA KUNCI INITIATIVE ANNUAL REPORT 2020 | 49

This meeting concluded that the Guideline should:

• Be well-designed and in local language, illustrated and in color • Use a persuasive tone to convince the reader of the value of employing PWD • Provide clear information on Reasonable Accommodation. • Focus on priorities: what are minimum standards, what is urgent. • Separate operational aspects and principles • Be informed by human rights principles: to respect, protect and fulfill rights

The third FGD was hosted and facilitated by PT Kalbe Farma on March 11, 2020 and attended by around 10 representatives of the private sector. It aimed to provide input on the technical aspects of this book. Topics included how to handle emergencies with PWD, security, safety and welfare, and handling communications. By the last meeting in April 2020, the final draft was ready, and it went for final revisions.

In a meeting with the company members of the Indonesian Employers Association (APINDO) on June 26, the focus was on the development of the guideline on GESI in the workplace and how the guidelines should incorporate a response to COVID-19, since the current situation calls for innovative approaches to help the private sector empower vulnerable groups, including people with disabilities in the workforce. APINDO and Mitra Kunci invited Bahrul Fuad as the resource person in charge of drafting this additional guidance.

Representatives of APINDO and USAID Mitra Kunci Initiative discussed the guideline for GESI in the workplace for the private sector on March 5.

Project implementation In February 2020, Mitra Kunci signed a Fixed Amount Award (FAA) type grant to transfer previously Mitra Kunci-led activities to be led and implemented by APINDO as a membership organization. APINDO members participate using their own funds and, in some cases, provide funds to cover the participation of others such as DPO partners. Then in March 2020, Mitra Kunci hosted a kick off meeting to set up logistics of collaboration through an FAA, including sharing of responsibilities, setting of expectations on reporting and finance and on M&E.

Mitra Kunci and APINDO have worked together to shift activities online as far as possible since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. The planned recruitment of vulnerable young people originally scheduled by Mitra Kunci and companies’ partners has had to shift to a focus on economic empowerment for vulnerable young people through existing CSR programs where possible, as APINDO members wished to support local communities around their workplaces as a response to the crisis

USAID.GOV USAID MITRA KUNCI INITIATIVE ANNUAL REPORT 2020 | 50

during the early months of COVID-19, though they continued to engage on IWD and GESI, particularly in the context of Guideline development with Mitra Kunci and partners, and on follow up to their own GESI action plans.

2.6.4. HIGHER EDUCATION INSTITUTION KKN-TKWU programs continuation, and COVID-19 implications Prior to the onset of COVID-19, several HEIs were able to conduct a round of KKN-TKWU based on their own schedules and approaches. Some conduct KKN multiple times a year (in June-July and in January-February). In the case of UNPAD, for example, KKN-TKWU runs twice a year and utilizes a Penta Helix model of multi-stakeholder engagement, working closely with district government, NGOs, financial institutions, media and the private sector. During the second quarter, four HEIs implemented KKN-TKWU with 4,800 students in 150 villages. Table I below shows the number of students and locations for each HEI.

Responses of HEIs to the COVID-19 pandemic: a different kind of KKN experience for students The HEIs grappled with the changes brought by the pandemic and worked to adjust accordingly. Six out of seven partner universities and three polytechnics joined a teleconference meeting on April 8, 2020, to discuss plans, during which they stated their determination to proceed with their entrepreneurship- themed initiatives for students for summer 2020. Many KKN programs are now aligned with students’ place of origin, so it was hoped that while they were no longer able to visit other locations, they might in fact be well placed to support their own home regions.

USAID.GOV USAID MITRA KUNCI INITIATIVE ANNUAL REPORT 2020 | 51

The State University of Surabaya (UNESA) in East Java launched a COVID-19 volunteer project to focus on humanitarian responses. Students could join designated volunteer activities such as blood donation, distribution of essential supplies, and production of items needed for COVID-19 responses such as non- medical masks, disinfectants, and hand sanitizer.

Pre-departure briefings for KKN-TKWU/PKL students go online, supported by Mitra Kunci Mitra Kunci supported several pre-departure briefings for students, with the clear understanding that all students would follow health and safety protocolas during their time on KKN programs. Protocols enforced and monitored by the universities included use of face masks and application of handwashing and social distancing standards. With all students being briefed on this, the universities were also able to mmonitor compliance through the videos of activities uploaded by the students as part of their reporting requirement. Mitra Kunci understands that the KKN-TKWU program did not lead to any COVID-19 transmission.

On June 30, 2020 Bogor Agricultural University (IPB) sought Mitra Kunci support to implement the innovative KKN-TKWU, and invited Mitra Kunci to their briefing for KKN 2020 which was attended by 3,000 students participating in various KKN programs in 2020. At the event, Rector of IPB, Prof. Dr. Arif Satria, SP, MSi. and Secretary General of Ministry of Village Development (MOVD), Mr. Anwar Sanusi, delivered the keynote speech on the Village Development Program and the Freedom Campus (Kampus Merdeka) initiative of MOEC. Mr Anwar Sanusi highlighted the importance of KKN in supporting village development and proposed a partnership between Ministries to accelerate village development and towards the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in Indonesia, suggesting the need to link KKN-TKWU to the MOVD program on strengthening Village Owned Enterprises (BUMDESA).

Mitra Kunci presented at the Institut Pertanian Bogor (IPB) online pre departure briefing for 3,000 students. This was attended by 400 students and lecturers on Zoom and the remainder were able to follow on YouTube livestream due to limitations on Zoom participants.

The University of Jember (UNEJ) added entrepreneurship-themed empowerment projects for individuals, micro, small, or medium enterprises, or village-owned enterprises affected by COVID-19 to its KKN program this year, targeting students who had already returned to their hometowns. On June 18, USAID Mitra Kunci acted as a panellist in the University of Jember (UNEJ) Digital KKN Pre- Departure Briefing, delivering a presentation on supporting community entrepreneurship in Indonesia’s New Normal, as it begins to recover from the COVID-19 pandemic. The session focused on entrepreneurship and community service under the KKN Back to the Village initiative and was attended by UNEJ students who had returned to their hometowns at the beginning of the pandemic in Indonesia when universities closed. Nearly 4.000 students participated in this batch’s KKN program, which is implemented individually in their respective hometowns from the beginning of July to mid-August.

A “Platform for Innovation” event for the KKN Back to the Village program by Jember University (UNEJ), combined with a Virtual Job Fair by Saujana, Mitra Kunci partner.

COVID-19 pandemic. The KKN program began on July 21 and lasted for a month, with 561 students and 34 lecturers participating. Under the supervising lecturers’ guidance, the students were asked to conduct an initial assessment to identify challenges and potential in the villages, design and develop relevant community initiatives, and disseminate the outcomes and learnings from these initiatives.

A week later, Suryakancana University (UNSUR) held a one-day online pre-departure briefing session for lecturers and students participating in the program. The session was also live-streamed on YouTube. In his opening remarks, Rector of UNSUR Prof. Dwidja Priyatno said that “It is important for students to comply with health protocols while conducting KKN.” UNSUR students were set to support community development initiatives in their villages of origin and were under instructions to limit meetings with stakeholders to a maximum of 15 people. More detailed guidelines are available at https://kkn.unsur.ac.id/panduan.

Kuningan University, (UNIKU) held its pre-departure briefing online on August 6, 2020. Bringing in inspiration from speakers from the Indonesian Chamber of Commerce and Industry (KADIN) and Bank Indonesia as well as the Indonesian online marketplace Bukalapak, this briefing included over 1000 students.

Hendi Fadilah from Bukalapak was among the presenters in UNIKU’s online predeparture briefing on Thursday, August. The briefing preceded the official start of UNIKU’s KKN- TKWU on Monday, August 10.

On June 29 Mitra Kunci was invited to discuss community entrepreneurship initiatives at Surabaya State University (UNESA) as part of the online pre-departure webinar hundreds of students participating in the KKN program. Mitra Kunci highlighted the need for students to build relationships in villages and identify where their assistance can be of most use, especially given the short two-month time frame of the KKN program. These meetings were attended by the Rector of Surabaya State University (UNESA) Professor Nur Hasan and the Minister of Villages, Development of Disadvantaged Areas and Transmigration, Drs. Abdul Halim Iskandar.

On August 4, 2020, Jember State Polytechnic (POLIJE) dispatched 792 students from six departments to work for a month with village-owned enterprises (BUMDes) to support the community’s entrepreneurship endeavors to survive the impacts of COVID-19 pandemic.

The opening session of POLIJE’s PKL-TKWU pre-departure briefing on Tuesday, August 4, included remarks from the KKN-TKWU Committee Head Dhanang Eka Putra and POLIJE’s Vice Director for Academic Affairs, Surateno, who emphasized how the Lumajang local government has called for more intensive support beyond the duration of PKL-TKWU.

Lumajang Regent Thoriqul Haq said that the KKN-TKWU program can bring student brains and innovation to solve problems in the villages.

2.7. EMPLOYMENT AND ECONOMIC EMPOWERMENT OF PERSONS WITH DISABILITIES (EEE PWD) PROJECT At the end of Year Four, Mitra Kunci started work on the EEE PWD project in East Java. Beginning with a consultation on inclusive workforce development with the provincial planning agency, BAPPEDA on September 22, 2020, Mitra Kunci was able to convene representatives of all relevant provincial government departments including Social Affairs, Manpower, Cooperatives and Small to Medium Enterprise, along with representatives of the seven cities and districts in the program (Surabaya and Malang cities, and the districts of Sidoarjo, Pasuruan, Jember, Banyuwangi and Situbondo). Higher Education Institutions, faith-based organizations, CSOs and DPOs also participated. Based on the positive outcomes of the discussion, on September 30 Mitra Kunci then sent formal letters to all seven partner cities/districts to prepare for follow up in each, and then began as series technical coordination meetings with local governments in each location, to continue through October.

The Mitra Kunci team had identified the civil society participants in the consultation above following an assessment of potential partners in May 2020 when the project was under preparation. The potential partners included: Pertuni Surabaya, Himpunan Wanita Disablitas Indonesia di Surabaya, Pelopor Peduli Disabilitas Situbondo, Komunitas Akar Tuli Malang, YAKKUM (Yayasan Kristen untuk Kesehatan Umum), PKBI (Perkumpulan Keluarga Berencana Indonesia) Jatim, Aisiyah Jawa Timur, Pusat Studi dan Layanan Disabilitas Universitas Brawijaya Malang, YPAC (Yayasan Pembinaan Anak Cacat), and Lakpesdam Pasuruan (please see Mitra Kunci Task VI Report in separate document).

Mitra Kunci will provide a sub-task report for all activities under the EEE PWD project in the next quarterly report.

3. FEATURE STORIES

3.1. YOUNG ENTREPRENEURS FROM INDONESIA’S HIGHER EDUCATION INSTITUTIONS MAKING A DIFFERENCE IN VILLAGES Every year thousands of Indonesian students head to villages to spend their time learning, sharing and contributing to village life for a month or more for their KKN (Kuliah Kerja Nyata or Student Community Service) program. This year, many had participated in the Mitra Kunci-supported thematic

USAID.GOV USAID MITRA KUNCI INITIATIVE ANNUAL REPORT 2020 | 55

KKN program focusing on entrepreneurship, KKN-TWU (Tematik Kewirausahaan) and by early 2020 were ready to plan their trips, however, things changed.

Unleashed potential and creativity, in spite of, or perhaps because of, COVID-19 While many of us hope that there will never be another year like 2020 because of the extreme restrictions COVID-19 has triggered, affecting normal lives, businesses and economies around the world, many of those who have been involved in the KKN-TKWU program in Java have seen the positive side of this massively challenging time. When it became clear that different approaches had to be taken if students and local communities were to be able to go ahead with KKN programs due to limitations on travel and on meetings, the ‘reboot’ for 2020 led to greater opportunities than could have been anticipated when Mitra Kunci was developing its support to entrepreneurship in universities from 2018 onwards. Mitra Kunci was well positioned to help HEIs respond flexibly to the situation as it changed and to take advantage of opportunities.

According to Prof. Dr. Yus Mochammad Cholily, Msi, Director of Research and Community Service Department at Universitas Muhammadiyah, Malang (UMM), the arrival of COVID-19 changed the way we view time and space, enabling new ways of collaborating and giving students the chance to catalyze change in communities through the KKN programs, using their energy more strategically than in previous years where they tended to only provide additional hands and giving them valuable experience that will prepare them for the world of work. Dr. Ir. Iwan Taruna, M.Eng., Rector of the University of Jember (UNEJ) was explicit: when the crisis started, his university was expecting to have to give up ideas of holding KKN-TKWU in 2020, however they soon realized that as long as student and community health could be protected, the program should go ahead as the need for it was even greater than before. Following strict protocols outlined during the students’ pre-departure programs, the programs went ahead successfully and without spreading COVID-19, according to the HEI partners.

Indeed, recent developments in the Ministry of Education and Culture with its Freedom Campus program have also added a new layer of opportunity which has helped unleash a wave of creative and innovative thinking, as it allows students to step outside campus and away from their main course of study to earn credits in wider ways. Iwan emphasized how Freedom Campus opened doors for University of Jember students, allowing them to expand their horizons.

Indonesia’s Ministry of Education and Culture’s Acting Director General of Higher Education Prof. Nizam (pictured) and Director of Learning and Student Affairs Professor Aris Junaidi discussed KKN- TKWU with Mitra Kunci, partner HEIs, and USAID in April 2020. During this meeting Nizam shared information on Freedom Campus, and it was agreed that the programs were in alignment, and KKN- TKWU could contribute to the Freedom Campus.

KKN-TKWU as a thematic program focusing on entrepreneurship both aligns with and builds on the Freedom Campus concept, providing a model that can be scaled throughout the state higher education system. Mitra Kunci has played a key role in preparing students and lecturers to make positive contributions to village economic development and meet students’ and HEI goals in line with the overarching community support mandate of the KKN program, including three polytechnics as well as seven universities in its scope.

USAID.GOV USAID MITRA KUNCI INITIATIVE ANNUAL REPORT 2020 | 56

Generation Z ‘Digi-Digi’ entrepreneurs emerge It is clear that the new perspectives coming from responding to the challenge of COVID-19 and the opportunity presented by both the Freedom Campus program and KKN-TKWU have helped create an explosion of new ideas and small business startups in villages across Java. Returning to home locations due to the limitations in travel, students have been able move quickly to develop business ideas based on identification of local potential and to help communities in villages to develop products that are marketable online and come up with solutions for ‘dropshipping’ which is to be supported, for example, in East Java by local government funds and the Post Office.

LPPM UNIKU (@lppmuniku) on Instagram

Calling themselves ‘Digi-digi’, this new generation of students is well known to be highly active on social media platforms and keen to connect online. Their local knowledge and awareness of what sells online and how e-commerce works has been shared with their communities, and they have already demonstrated that they can act as agents of change for business development in villages. The high level of energy they bring can be seen for example in the number of products displayed under #lppmuniku Instagram page where Universitas Kuningan students compete to show how they have been able to support local product development through KKN-TKWU in the villages.

It seems that the entrepreneurial spirit is latent here, and students of all faculties have something to offer, be it design, ICT, marketing, agriculture, there is an appetite for making a difference in village economies.

The Universitas Kuningan KKN Coordinator, Tatang Rois, showed his pride in the innovations of his students: one group with Birgitta, a student of computer science, shared how the nut crackers she helped develop are now being shipped to Palembang and Jakarta, while Berlyana worked with a village business to add coffee flavor to chocolate brownies and package them for e-commerce. Aryanita Sembiring, youth facilitator of The Local Enabler (TLE), one of Mitra Kunci partner, reminded of the importance of sustaining these efforts after the students have gone back to campus and hoped that the

USAID.GOV USAID MITRA KUNCI INITIATIVE ANNUAL REPORT 2020 | 57

KKN-TKWU program would help small businesses to identify potential and explore market opportunities. Prof Yus from UMM also recommended using the research arms of HEIs to evaluate progress made in local economic development through KKN programs, and like his counterparts from other HEI partners, is keen to find resources from within the university, from local government and other potential supporters to sustain the efforts in the villages. Many of the HEI partners are now ensuring that KKN-TKWU programs return to the same villages over three years to promote this.

Some of the products from the groups of students winning the photo and video competition, from left to right: Soy and ginger drink from Cibulan Village, palm sugar from Legok Herang Village, and rice crackers (rengginang) from Lengkong Village.

According to Iwan, Rector of Universitas Jember, at this point 24,000 videos have been uploaded to YouTube by students recording their KKN-TKWU experiences, and the program and its local products and innovations have been supported and promoted by Quipper online learning platform, the national news provider Kompas, and Shopee, one of Indonesia’s major e-commerce platforms. Following the “Back to the Village’ program, students showcased the results of their efforts in an Expo and demonstrated how much potential there is for village economic development especially through the BUMDES village enterprises. Pak Hermanto, as KKN TKWU Supervisor /Coordinator for Community Empowerment, emphasized the importance of measuring and sustaining the impacts of the KKN-TKWU program to make sure that it fulfils its mandate of sharing and supporting learning and local development, and also mentioned the need to start thinking about protecting Intellectual Property. He sees the KKN-TKWU program as an enriching contribution to the university, students and local areas alike.

It all comes together: policy development and scaling up of initiatives On the question of how this momentum will sustain, and while some universities are ensuring student teams return to the same villages over multiple years to maintain their support, there is also a need to ensure that the local businesses thrive and develop in their absence and can continue to develop and market their products, adjusting to demand and taking advantage of one opportunities.

From the Ministry of Education and Culture we heard about plans to expand budgets by five times to incentivize student entrepreneurship grants across all subjects, with the aim of increasing the number of new businesses, based on the approaches developed under Mitra Kunci. Dr. Ir. Paristiyanti Nurwardani, MP (Bu Paris) conveyed her pride in this program and specifically said “I am thankful to Mitra Kunci for the way you have helped set up and standardize the approach to KKN-TKWU”, regarding it as ‘a gift from the United States’. She is advocating for the course to allow students to accumulate credits for attendance and see the emphasis on entrepreneurship as valuable to students from all faculties in universities and polytechnics, especially if e-learning modules can be developed and shared throughout the HE system. Bu Paris also laid out the Ministry’s plans for the next five years, including a strong focus on relevance and 21st century skills related to programming, Intellectual Property, Artificial Intelligence and cyber security. She looks to the US for support and connections for this and appreciates USAID’s engagement and partnering approach.

Dr. Beny Bandanadjaja, S.T., M.T., as Director Vocational Education at MOEC, is responsible for leading state polytechnic KKN programs, and stresses that “The KKN-TKWU/PKL approach is very closely aligned to the Ministry’s aims.” While KKN activities are new to polytechnics more used to providing industrial internships, with the Freedom Campus program he sees the tremendous opportunity to provide community service while also giving students broader practical learning experiences. Pak Beny wants to make sure that off campus activities are meaningful and measurable, contributing to local development and to student and polytechnic goals. He is clear that the applied knowledge of polytechnic students will be especially valuable in communities.

In East Java, we learned from the Head of the Provincial Village Community Empowerment Office, Mohammad Yasin that there are plans to support village enterprises (BUMDES) and make use of village funds (Dana Desa) to promote them so that village level economic development can be strengthened. He sees a lot of scope for this as the level of activity in most BUMDES is insufficient to drive development, and HE students are well placed to inject new energy and thinking, if they have gone through the KKN-TKWU training and can contribute ideas into how Village Funds can be used more effectively using their techniques in Business Canvas and Value Chain Analysis. He outlined how the provincial government is making efforts to bring together all sectors to mobilize this and outlined how Polytechnic Jember is already contributing by linking needs and distribution of basic goods to areas where poverty is highest.

The Kuningan Regency Government endorsed the 2020 UNIKU KKN Expo. Local mass media such as Kuningan Online and Kuningan Mass widely published the entire implementation of the KKN-TKWU program. Deni Hamdani, Assistant of Economics and Development Affairs at Kuningan Regency Secretariat, in his remarks at the KKN Expo’s Grand Opening, said that the KKN-TKWU program shows Kuningan people are creative and can make competitive products on Thursday, September 3.

From Padjadjaran University (UNPAD), Diana Sari, Director of Innovation and Cooperation, and Fahmi, Director of Education and International Affairs shared how they see the strengthening of business incubators in universities as the next logical step in supporting local economic development. They see student entrepreneurs ultimately selling products and services to US markets: why not?

Mitra Kunci: providing enabling tools and connections Mitra Kunci has provided HEIs with simple tools to enable students and lecturers alike to understand how to support business development and start thinking as entrepreneurs. The key tools include the

USAID.GOV USAID MITRA KUNCI INITIATIVE ANNUAL REPORT 2020 | 59

Business Model Canvas, value chain analysis, value propositions and approaches to costing. The students and lecturers alike comment on the usefulness of these tools to frame their thinking and allow them to see potential opportunities more easily. They also note how these approaches have enabled them to see potential assets and opportunities where previously they might have overlooked them, and Ibnu Sofyan, one of the UMM students who had gone through the ToT course on KKN TKWU Module and Soft Skills, said that “The training helped my critical thinking and gave me the chance to learn how to innovate.”

Example of value chain analysis developed by participants in the training Example of business model canvas developed by courses. This one focuses on agribusiness development for mangoes. participants in the training courses. This one focuses on agribusiness development for Durian.

Berlyana and Gitta, also students of UNIKU, shared how they have gained self-confidence through the experience of applying the tools in the villages where they completed their KKN-TKWU programs, and were able to practice their public speaking skills and gain the foundation for starting their own businesses in the future. The demand for additional ToT courses was repeated by lecturers and students, particularly if they can be offered in East Java.

Diana Sari and Fahmi from UNPAD also highlighted how the new course was invigorating for lecturers too, and the structure it provides makes it more strategic and measurable in terms of impact. The renewed emphasis on tracer studies is very much in line with new developments coming from MOEC, so Mitra Kunci’s support is also valued. They would like to build on the course content with case studies from the United States to inspire creativity.

University of Jember KKN program coordinator Ali explained how he sees the Mitra Kunci program as a way to promote youth entrepreneurship as a foundation for new businesses across the country, and particularly views the soft skills element as crucial for the students’ development.

Collaboration with Mitra Kunci has also opened up opportunities for HEIs and local governments to connect in new ways, and there is a great appetite for taking developments to the next level: Provincial (East Java) and national (MOEC) officials see the potential in opening up markets for Indonesian products and ideas in the United States though their collaboration with USAID under Mitra Kunci, and would like to connect the outcomes of the KKN-TKWU initiatives with potential partners in the US.

3.2. TOWARD A MORE INCLUSIVE WORKPLACE IN INDONESIA: FROM GUIDELINE THROUGH PRACTICE TO POLICY The “Guideline for Equality and Inclusivity in the Workplace” was launched through a webinar on September 29, 2020 with nearly 200 participants from Companies, Disabled People’s Organizations (DPOs) and Non-Government Organizations (NGOs), national and local government, universities and media.

Keynote speakers included the Indonesian Minister of Manpower, Ida Fauziyah, represented by Nora Kartika Setyaningrum from the Directorate of Domestic Labor Placement, the Head of APINDO, Hariyadi B. Sukamdani, Peter Novak, Acting Director of Human Capacity and Partnerships USAID Indonesia and included presentations by Dadan Sukma Saputra (PT Dayalima Abisatya), Intan Permata Hati from PT Adis Dimension Footwear and Bahrul Fuad, Commissioner, National Commission on the Elimination of Violence against Women.

Cover of Guideline for Equality and Inclusivity in the Workplace and the invitation for the launching.

According to Dadan, this Guideline is the first to be created by and for the private sector in Indonesia. Indeed, Haryadi from APINDO shared his commitment to the effort to make Indonesia’s workplaces more inclusive, and how he sees this as a vital tool to make it possible using practical and applicable steps. While achieving the target of 1% of employees as people with disabilities may have seemed like a challenge, this Guideline is critical to making it real, and he indicated that APINDO would send copies to all its partner companies and also make it available for download on the APINDO website.

The Gender Equality and Social Inclusion in the Workplace Guideline: Contents 1 Introduction and background to concepts of equality and inclusion in the workplace, the legal framework in Indonesia, and the benefits of inclusivity 2 Establishing GESI in the workplace, with guidance on approach and steps to take 3 Practical ways to accommodate women and workers with disabilities in recruitment, placement, promotion and ending work. It includes guidance on affirmative action. 4 Practical guidance on accommodation of disability and of female workers in the workplace through physical accessibility improvements and initiatives that support mothers. 5 Information and communication materials 6 GESI in emergency situations

USAID.GOV USAID MITRA KUNCI INITIATIVE ANNUAL REPORT 2020 | 61

Nora from the Ministry of Manpower underlined how the Guideline will make a valuable contribution to promote equality and inclusivity within the government’s legal framework and appreciated the way it has been developed through public private collaboration by Mitra Kunci. She particularly noted the empathetic, human approach that has been taken, and how it provides very practical steps that companies can take to increase their inclusivity and reach the target of employing at least 1% of staff amongst people with disabilities. She highlighted the universal values that the Guideline embodies, and how it seeks to help companies to promote and protect PWD in the workplace. As she outlined the development of a new government regulation (PP70 on Planning, Administration and Evaluation of Respect, Protection and the Fulfilment of the Rights of PWD), she promised to take the Guideline into account as the regulation is developed further in 2021. She immediately took on board a suggestion from Ibu Probolini, a participant representing PWD, to take into account the needs of those whose disability stems from workplace accidents. Finally, she also emphasized how the collaborative approach used by Mitra Kunci has made a significant contribution to inclusive workplace development, especially in the way APINDO has played such a strong role to bring in private sector companies.

Bringing in a frontline perspective, Intan from PT Adis Dimensi, herself a PWD and a manager, shared her experience of working in a company that is already committed to inclusion. She described how she was included from the start of her career, and how she applies and embraces her company’s policies and regulations. Although already advanced, PT Adis Dimensi sees this Guideline as a practical and meaningful tool for employees and managers to use to help them build a more inclusive workforce, and she also highlighted how these approaches are equally valuable in promoting the equality and inclusion of women.

Bahrul Fuad, known as Cak Fu, who helped develop the Guideline, recalled his personal experience of being stopped at the lobby by staff who saw his wheelchair and assumed he was seeking donations, when in fact he was seeking work. The opportunities available to PWD of his generation were limited to becoming masseurs and tailors, with no encouragement to work in the formal sector. He has strong views about how with this Guideline, companies can start to see PWD as humans and as assets to be valued and protected, and that ultimately, by supporting the employment of PWD the government will ultimately reduce the spending needed for social protection of PWD as they will be productive members of society. He requested that the Ministry of Manpower develop regulations to support PWD, and in response Ibu Nora shared progress in this regard. He also suggested that an awards program for companies fulfilling their responsibilities would be a great incentive to not only comply but also become excellent.

3.3. REFLECTING ON THE ACHIEVEMENTS OF SINERGI In September 2020, the second phase of the SINERGI project managed by Rajawali Foundation came to a close. Marked by an online conference called ‘Recognition of Program Implementation Achievements’, those involved in the program took a moment to reflect on what its contribution has been to inclusive workforce development in Central Java. Bringing together government and program stakeholders along with Mitra Kunci and USAID representatives, this event focused on the 4 P’s (Pemuda, Pemerintahan, Pengusaha and Pelatihan), or youth, government, business and training.

USAID.GOV USAID MITRA KUNCI INITIATIVE ANNUAL REPORT 2020 | 62

Secretary of BAPPEDA Central Java Juwandi in the Recognition of Program Implementation Achievements discussion on Friday, September 25.

There is a great sense of achievement amongst all those involved in the program. Juwandi, Secretary of BAPPEDA Central Java, conveyed the speech of Prasetyo Airbowo, Head of BAPPEDA Central Java, which acknowledged SINERGI as a key project for the province, and valuable especially in 2020 with the loss of previous gains in youth employment, bringing ‘new colors’ to IWD in Central Java. He noted that the program’s comprehensive and cross-stakeholder approach, support to YSN and use of champions “has been useful and relevant and has helped us find new ways to promote IWD”.

Sakina Rosellasari from the provincial Department of Manpower acknowledged how SINERGI helped her team achieve their goals and stressed that ‘This is how pushing together helps all of us’. Meanwhile Arif Sambodo, the Head of the Provincial Department of Industry and Trade agreed, adding that the way SINERGI has worked collaboratively has made an extraordinary contribution to inclusive workforce development in Central Java, and also noted the value of soft skills training for youth. Pak Harso Susilo Head of the Provincial Department of Social Welfare noted that, ‘We support SINERGI 100% as it is directly in line with our goals’, adding that with a population of 4.4 million people, there is a need to scale these successful initiatives.

From the perspective of Ardanto Jati Winoto, an instructor from BLK Surakarta, this program has been eye-opening, and while at the start of the SINERGI program there was limited awareness of the importance of GESI, at this point the BLK has gone from awareness to changed attitudes and behaviors, and still has work to do so would appreciate further support.

Sri Setyaningsih, meanwhile, member of the YSN, says “SINERGI has brought fresh air to IWD in Central Java, and values the soft skills training and support to facilitation and mentoring”. Pak Bambang from Rajawali Foundation summed up by referring to the program as building social capital.

Central Java provincial and district governments are solidly behind SINERGI and want to continue the work. Sakinah emphasized that SINERGI made a significant strategic contribution to the work of increasing inclusive workforce development in Central Java, especially in 2020 when the challenges of COVID-19 made it both more important and more difficult to achieve. She asked for further support from Mitra Kunci and USAID for next level support to link and match programs and Bursa Kerja Khusus (Special Job Exchange) activities for poor and vulnerable youth and PWD. According to Arief, the way SINERGI enabled collaboration with private sector companies has been an excellent way to help youth enter the workforce, in line with the local development plans (RPJMD) and noted particularly the efforts in the garment and footwear industries. Harso suggested the need to widen the scope of follow up programs and maintain a strong emphasis on soft skills and awareness of GESI as this is where mindsets begin to change and recommended aligning the government-supported existing networks of 30,000 volunteers with the YSN so that their reach and input can have more impact.

POKSI will continue as a convening platform as it is still very much needed. Arief appreciates the way POKSI has driven more intensive cross-stakeholder communications and would like to ensure that it continues as a platform. This governmental support is key for sustaining project activities and the scale out of Mitra Kunci models. Dwi Supratiwi from the POKSI Secretariat underlined how the meetings had brought in diverse and enriching perspectives including national, provincial, local institutions from government, private sector, media, education and training. As such it is critical to expanding understanding of GESI and how to build a more inclusive workforce. Wawang, Deputy Head of PHRD & LSP MSDM highlighted the value of this approach, seeing POKSI as a platform to motivate and inspire advances in IWD. Ester Manurung from USAID noted that there is continuing commitment to POKSI under USAID’s planned support to the Central Java provincial government.

USAID.GOV USAID MITRA KUNCI INITIATIVE ANNUAL REPORT 2020 | 64

USAID COR for Mitra Kunci Ester Manurung appreciated the work of POKSI in promoting inclusive workforce development in Central Java in her remarks at the event on Friday, September 25, 2020.

3.4. PROGRESIF MAKES PROGRESS WITH INCLUSIVE BLKS IN EAST JAVA Asked about her proudest achievements in the PROGRESIF Program to date, Tety Sianipar, the Project Manager, explained how Saujana, through its support to two Ministry of Manpower BLKs, had been able to increase social inclusion for youth with disabilities and therefore increased opportunities for PWD in East Java. She emphasized that building inclusion is a process that takes time and investment, and she appreciates the way the BLKs have contributed to improving physical access to their facilities, to the extent that they can now train PWD. “Training 150 youth with disabilities to the point that 40 have been able to obtain new or better employment, especially this year with the challenge of COVID-19, is something to be proud of”, and she concluded, “We still have a lot to do, especially in terms of making employers more inclusive, changing not just infrastructure but also building inclusive cultures.”

Tety (left) presented a certificate of appreciation to a participant of the Basic Job Readiness Training by PROGRESIF in Sidoarjo, January 2020

One of the PROGRESIF Team, Arrohmah, is a young woman with disabilities from Ponorogo. She has been a PWD for only a year, and this gives her a specific perspective on the dynamics of inclusion which she sees as valuable. She has acted as a resource person and co-facilitator in PROGRESIF’s Job and Preparedness Training and the ToT for BLK instructors and staff, and notes that, “in my sessions, I can widen participants perspectives, and show that PWD can take an active role to make sure they are included/ I have learned a lot from this experience and have gained new skills in facilitation which has helped build my self-confidence.”

USAID.GOV USAID MITRA KUNCI INITIATIVE ANNUAL REPORT 2020 | 65

Arrohmah (center) was a resource person in the Basic Job Readiness Training by PROGRESIF in Sidoarjo in January 2020.

Meanwhile Agustin Larasati has received Career Coaching as part of the program. She now works in Jakarta as a company receptionist, having got her job through Kerjabilitas.com. ‘I never thought I could be a receptionist, they usually want able-bodied people for those jobs. But the coaching helped me to build my self-confidence and start thinking about jobs I might want. PROGRESIF helped me to prepare for the interview.” Agustin still practices what she learned through coaching and is determined to make the most of her opportunity. According to Andre F. Pattirajawane, a young man with disabilities, “All I can say is I am so happy to have been able to get a job so quickly, in less than four months from joining the Job and Preparedness Training, I am working as Crew Store through Kerjabilitas.com. It’s in my own town, as well, and my workmates are friendly, some are actually friends from home. The PROGRESIF Team helped me when I didn’t have my paperwork together, and this really motivated me. So, I would say, don’t give up, everyone can work!” Another young woman with disabilities who joined the training course in Banyuwangi, Fitri Ayu Wulandari, said that, “This training had a positive impact on me, it helped me to open up, to know and accept myself more. I realized I want to become an editor or a writer, and now I am writing a lot and preparing to seek work.”

PROGRESIF also asked the Provincial Manpower office to provide comments. Sugeng Lestari, Industrial Relations Mediator, used to work in the Work Placement unit, and is familiar with the program. He said, “This sort of program is really important, and we need to scale up. PROGRESIF is in line with our goal of increasing work opportunities for PWD.” In a side note, he added his opinion that there are in fact plenty of opportunities that could be taken by PWD if companies were more open to them, so reducing stigma is key, and he suggested using champions in the private sector to give examples to others, “as many would like to more inclusive and understand its importance, they just don’t know how to go about it without support”.

The view from the two BLKs supported under the project also gained a lot from the experience. Iman Agung, Head of BLK Sidoarjo, attended the ToT, and said, “All BLKs in Indonesia should receive this training, so we can provide equal opportunities to all youth.” One of the instructors from BLK Banyuwangi reinforced this, adding, “I loved the interactive approach, there were notes and posters all over the walls, it wasn’t just a powerpoint screen, I wanted to start using this creative approach to learning, and when I delivered the training myself I was rated one of the best. I appreciated learning how to relate to and talk with PWD and saw how patient they were with me as I learned. The soft skills are really important.” He hopes this training will lead more PWD into jobs they enjoy. One of the BLK Sidoarjo instructors, Yoephie Susanto, has now started teaching PWD, and is finding she is up to the task, working as a team with a colleague, Neni, who also joined the ToT. “Our group is perfectly able to absorb the materials, the only issue some have is that they don’t have computers at home, so they need practice. We encourage them to use the computers here. We do what we can to increase their self-

USAID.GOV USAID MITRA KUNCI INITIATIVE ANNUAL REPORT 2020 | 66

confidence and become friends with other students. At first everyone was a bit shy, but now they laugh and joke”.

4. CHALLENGES AND SOLUTIONS COVID-19 emerged as a serious risk Starting from March 2020, Mitra Kunci’s main challenge was to manage the risks associated with the spread of COVID-19 and the increase in positive cases across Indonesia which continued throughout the reporting period. On March 2, Indonesia reported its first official case of COVID-19. At this point Mitra Kunci had already met with all other DAI USAID projects to discuss the issue and had instituted precautionary measures in its offices, including putting posters up at the entrance and in all rooms reminding staff not to shake hands or make physical contact, wash hands and use hand sanitizers, sneezing or coughing into one’s sleeve and to stay at home if sick. However, as the number of cases continued to rise in Indonesia and especially globally, the COPs of all USAID/DAI projects met again on March 13th and agreed on guidelines for the following two weeks (shared with USAID on March 16th) which went further, promoting work from home, banning travel for staff and limiting use of public transport and postponing large events.

On March 14, the Department of State authorized the departure of U.S. personnel and family members from any diplomatic or consular post in the world who have been determined to be at higher risk if exposed to COVID-19 or who have requested departure based on a commensurate justification. Mr. Bergthold had planned to demobilize from the project on June 8, 2020, but due to the growing concerns over COVID-19, on March 15, DAI requested USAID approval for international travel approval for Chief of Party Eric Bergthold and his four authorized dependents for the purpose of Mr. Bergthold’s demobilization. On March 20, USAID approved this and on March 22, Mr. Bergthold and his family demobilized from Indonesia to their home of record. This effectively brought forward the COP succession by Lensi Mursida, and with USAID approval, Eric Bergthold continued as a Senior Technical Advisor to smooth the transition from April 1 until June 8, his original date of departure.

Mitra Kunci response to COVID-19 risk Mitra Kunci’s policy on teleworking was issued on March 18 and reviewed every two weeks until the end of the reporting period. On March 25, 2020 Mitra Kunci submitted a memo to USAID titled, “Disruptions to USAID Mitra Kunci due to COVID-19,” which outlined the impact of COVID-19 on ongoing project activities of Mitra Kunci and its partners, including grantees (PIs). Mitra Kunci noted the postponement of a number of planned activities. Some private sector partners, particularly those in the hospitality sector (e.g., Accor Hotel Group), noted significant impacts and temporary hiring freezes.

During the telework period, Mitra Kunci staff productivity has been maintained and monitored through weekly internal online meetings and supervisor monitoring of individual staff members’ remote work plans. The team continued to support and monitor grantees and sub-partners to adapt their project activities, working with all to determine their level of risk and assess plans for continued implementation of activities, postponing, rescheduling, reformatting, and/or cancelling as appropriate.

On June 8, 2020, DKI Jakarta government announced its New Normal phase with a transitional policy of Large-Scale Social Distancing (Pembatasan Berskala Besar/PSBB transisi) which allowed businesses and companies to reopen their offices.

USAID.GOV USAID MITRA KUNCI INITIATIVE ANNUAL REPORT 2020 | 67

The team combined online and offline approaches to accommodate partners’ needs, for example on June 16, 2020, Mitra Kunci DCOP Muhammad Hudallah had a face-to-face meeting with Ministry of Manpower Officers as they requested a direct conversation instead of an online meeting.

DAI designed a Risk Assessment Tool (RAT) to assist projects by documenting government measures, referring to the local COVID-19 situation, and other risks and based on that, to define processes for restarting the activities once it was determined by local/national governments that it was safe to do so.

By the end of Year Four it had become clear based on reinforced large-scale social distancing regulations that social distancing measures would remain in place for the foreseeable future, and this would continue to affect the project’s ability to have in-person meetings. By this point however, staff and partners alike have adjusted to the new reality and have been able to find ways to maintain activities and productivity based on work from home and online meetings and events, with the use of multiple channels of communication with project beneficiaries and with colleagues. Where meetings have to be held in person, there are now strong protocols in place to limit the possibility of virus transmission.

Other challenges Aside from the major challenges presented by COVID-19 from Quarter 2 onwards, Mitra Kunci has also responded to and managed a range of activity level challenges.

Implementation of Private Sector GESI Action Plans While some companies under APINDO demonstrated ownership and progressed quickly, not all companies were able to carry out their action plans developed in a timely manner. In some companies, the lack of follow-up, encouragement and enforcement by higher management contributed to the delay in implementing the action plans. The nature of Mitra Kunci’s relationship with APINDO member companies is indirect, so while the team can assist when requested to be involved directly (as has been the case with Kable Farma for example), we are not positioned to follow up with each company directly, and implementation of action plans is optional.

Mitra Kunci has therefore continued to engage on the action plans and provided mentoring support to those companies, and notes that the impact of COVID-19 on many companies has resulted in hiring freezes which unfortunately affects their ability to follow up on inclusive hiring, however they have remained active in contributing to the development of the GESI Guidelines.

Delay in MoU signing with the Accor Hotel Group Mitra Kunci sent a draft MOU to the Accor Hotel Group however they required more time to determine whether individual MOUs or a joint memorandum for all participating hotels was most appropriate. Unfortunately, this MOU was not signed before the COVID-19 pandemic hit and given the impact on the hotels and tourism industry all Accor activities were on hold as of the end of the third quarter. Mitra Kunci is still waiting for the final decision from Accor Hotels on whether or not they will pursue this partnership. However, the representative of Accor Hotels is still active in the GESI Guidance development process with Mitra Kunci and APINDO.

Delay in developing new grant with United Tractors. After the Ayo Inklusif! grant was closed in February 2019, Mitra Kunci began discussions with United Tractors (UT) to fund a project to strengthen training centers that provide graduates the opportunity to work at UT and similar companies. The initial focus was on Vocational High Schools (SMK) and some BLK, but Mitra Kunci and UT are not able to work with SMK, so Mitra Kunci tried to shift the focus to BLK. UT tried to adapt its proposal but was unable to clearly articulate a scope of work and results that met Mitra Kunci requirements. Mitra Kunci then explored how UT could help train BLK and

USAID.GOV USAID MITRA KUNCI INITIATIVE ANNUAL REPORT 2020 | 68

Community BLK as part of MOM and Mitra Kunci’s joint initiative. UT introduced Mitra Kunci to the management of the UT School. UT School Management was enthusiastic about the idea and willing to utilize their facilities and trainers to support Mitra Kunci and MOM. Mitra Kunci and UT decided that it would be most helpful and strategic if UT helped BLK under MOM and Community BLK understand how to better link and match with Industry, and this will go ahead once MOM indicates it is ready.

5. PERSONNEL AND OPERATIONS Personnel

Recruitment of a new Chief of Party As noted in DAI’s Response to USAID’s Request for Task Order Modification and approved by USAID, in order to reduce the Total Estimated Ceiling to $15 million, DAI made the decision to move up the end date of Expat LTTA COP Eric Bergthold from January 2022 to June 2020, and proposed transitioning to an Indonesian COP in June 2020. On January 13, Mitra Kunci submitted a Scope of Work (SOW) for the Chief of Party position and USAID approved it on January 21. On January 24, Mitra Kunci advertised the COP position on a number of public websites and received 24 applications, selecting four semi-finalists for interview by a panel on February 14. Two finalists were interviewed by DAI Vice-President for Asia, Walter Weaver, Mitra Kunci Project Team Director, Christel Bonaro, and Chief of Party, Eric Bergthold, on February 19. Mitra Kunci COR Ester Manurung observed the interviews and was a non-voting member of the final panel. The panellists unanimously selected Mitra Kunci Deputy Chief of Party (DCOP) Lensi Mursida as the most qualified candidate. On March 6, Mitra Kunci submitted a request for approval to USAID for Ms. Mursida as Chief of Party and on March 10th, USAID approved the request. The approval noted that Ms. Mursida would officially take over as Chief of Party on April 1, 2020.

Mitra Kunci had anticipated that Chief of Party Eric Bergthold would remain on the project until June 8, 2020 and assist with a longer transition process (in the case that a COP new to DAI and to the Mitra Kunci Initiative was selected). Due to the COVID-19 crisis and the early demobilization of Chief of Party, Eric Bergthold and his family on March 22, this timeline was shortened. The selection of Ms. Mursida as COP facilitated the handover and transition process as she had served as DCOP on Mitra Kunci since June of 2018. She was therefore already familiar with DAI and the project and had capably served as acting COP over the course of her employment. Ms. Mursida took over as COP on April 1, 2020. The Mitra Kunci home office team led a series of virtual COP orientation trainings with various corporate and project staff, based on DAI’s standard COP orientation that typically takes place in person. This orientation was adapted to a virtual format due to COVID-19 and completed in September 2020.

Selection of a Deputy Chief of Party (DCOP) Following approval from USAID for Ms. Mursida to take the role of Chief of Party, Mitra Kunci posted an internal advertisement of the SOW for the Deputy Chief of Party role in mid-March, to first evaluate whether any of the project’s own staff were interested and a suitable fit. Two staff applied for the position, and Mitra Kunci conducted an initial review of their credentials to verify their qualifications in line with the requirements of the role. Muhammad Hudallah was selected and began work on April 15, 2020.

Demobilization of Chief of Party, Eric Bergthold Due to complications related to COVID-19, Mr. Bergthold demobilized early, with the approval of USAID, on March 22, 2020. Mitra Kunci moreover submitted an approval request (which USAID

USAID.GOV USAID MITRA KUNCI INITIATIVE ANNUAL REPORT 2020 | 69

approved) for him to work remotely to support the project from the United States as a Senior Technical Advisor from April 1 through June 8, 2020. Lensi Mursida gradually took over the role of Chief of Party during this time.

Mitra Kunci Response to COVID-19 and Work from Home Policy Section 4. “Challenges and Responses” describes the Mitra Kunci response to COVID-19 in more detail, including the implementation of a Work from Home (WFH) and telecommuting policy and protocols. The WFH and telecommuting policy was implemented on March 13th and was extended through the end of the year. Each staff member was required to sign the policy and create individual work plans. Staff supervisors were required to monitor staff progress while working from home as well as to have regular meetings using video-conferencing technology.

Operations On April 1, 2020 Mitra Kunci submitted a proposal entitled “Market-based Inclusive Workforce Development (MIWD)” for East Java Province. USAID informed DAI on May 6, 2020 that Mitra Kunci's application was selected by DCHA/Washington. On May 13, 2020, USAID requested a submission to incorporate this activity into the Mitra Kunci Program, and this was submitted by DAI on May 28, 2020. This project has now started and the new task- Employment and Economic Empowerment of Persons with Disabilities (EEE PWD) East Java Province now forms Task 7 in this report.

In terms of project operations, the EEE-PWD office is now established at:

Pakuwon Center Building, 23 Floor Room 2357, Jl. Embong Malang 1-5, Surabaya East Java 60261 Tel: (62) 31-60003103

Request to Invoice Costs Related to COVID-19 Considering the ongoing health concerns related to the coronavirus outbreak, DAI requested the Task Order Contracting Officer’s authorization to bill certain COVID-19 related expenses as direct costs. These would be related to minimizing the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and continuing work as efficiently as possible. This was approved on April 15, 2020.

FY2020 Quarter 3 Accrual Report Mitra Kunci submitted the Q3 2020 Accrual report for the period of April 1, 2020 to June 30, 2020, as well as FY 2020 Q4 July 1, 2020 to September 30, 2020, and projections for the remaining life of project which includes the next fiscal year, FY 2021 October 2020 – September 2021 and the four final months of the project (October 2021 – January 2022).

VAT Payment Log Report – January 1 – December 31, 2019 With reference to OAA Notice No.03-CY2017 Guidance for Implementing Partners to Apply for Value Added Tax (VAT) Exemptions, DAI-Mitra Kunci submitted its annual VAT Payment Log Report for the Mitra Kunci Initiative for all taxes paid between January 1 and December 31, 2019. As a USAID-funded program, Mitra Kunci is tax exempt under the bilateral agreement between the United States and the GOI. However, while Mitra Kunci has received an MOU from its GOI counterpart, the Ministry of Research, Technology, and Higher Education, we have not received a Notification of Award (NOA) as of December 31, 2019 (the end of the last tax year).

Fixed Amount Award (FAA) Grants and Memoranda of Understanding (MOU) signing with HEIs In Phase1, ten HEIs implemented KKN-TKWU using their own funds and based on their own initiative. It became clear after the first round that the program and requirements of Mitra Kunci were more rigorous than the traditional KKN program and that HEIs were struggling to meet our demand for information and data. In order for HEIs to develop their M&E capacity and be able to deliver a high

USAID.GOV USAID MITRA KUNCI INITIATIVE ANNUAL REPORT 2020 | 71

standard of reporting, Mitra Kunci prepared small Fixed Award Agreements to be signed with participating HEIs to cover additional costs related to a tracer study and results, case studies, and videos.

On June 22, 2020 USAID approved a 12.5-month, $56,752 Fixed Amount Award (FAA) grant to seven higher education universities. The FAAs with each institution were signed and started as follows.

Indicator 1.1 (ES. 2-2): Number of service providers trained who serve vulnerable persons This indicator is defined as individuals who are taught a particular skill, type of behaviour, approach, and/or attitude that increases their capacity to serve vulnerable persons. This indicator is currently counted for lecturers and students from Universities and Polytechnics who are trained by Mitra Kunci to train other lecturers and students who will eventually serve vulnerable populations through the student service program (KKN/PKL-TKWU). Mitra Kunci also counted instructors who are trained by Mitra Kunci or Project Implementers (PIs) to train other BLK instructors and trainees at BLK.

The cumulative target through Year Four is 1,000 service providers trained who serve vulnerable persons, and the results up to this year was 1,304 in total (743 male and 561 female). During this year, Mitra Kunci trained an additional 274 service providers, increasing the total to 1,304 from 1,030 in the previous year. In total, Mitra Kunci is 30% above the target due to increased demand from Training of trainer KKN/PKL-TKWU for lecturers and students from Politeknik Negeri Bandung (West Java), Politeknik Semarang (Central Java) and Politeknik Jember (East Java).

Indicator 1.3 (USAID New) Number of institutions adopting improved workforce development training curriculum Institutions for this indicator refers to a wide range of training and vocational institutions (TVET) supported by Mitra Kunci partners that provide workforce development programs to youth. Institutions are frequently identified as either public or private providers such as the vocational training centers (Balai Latihan Kerja/BLK) higher education institutions (HEIs), skills training institution (Lembaga Keahlian dan Pelatihan/LKP and Lembaga Pelatihan Keterampilan/LPK), training center within private sector companies and other non-formal institutions delivering training for work readiness. Further, HEIs refers to university, vocational higher education institutions (Polytechnic) and community colleges (Akademi Komunitas).

The target for this indicator is 35 and in total 21 institutions have adopted the improved workforce development training curriculum. It consists of 11 universities and 3 polytechnics that have adopted a training curriculum for KKN/PKL-TKWU and 7 training canters (BLK/LPK/LKP) that have adopted a training curriculum for soft skills and inclusive workforce development training. In this year, an additional

Indicator 2.1 Number of Individuals Accessing Mitra Kunci Program Activities This is not a standard USAID Indicator but is included in the Mitra Kunci Task Order Contract. This indicator is counted by the number of individuals who directly or indirectly participate in or access Mitra Kunci Project activities, including PIs activities.

The cumulative target through Year Four for this indicator is 55,000. The total number of individuals who accessed Mitra Kunci’s programs was 49,398 (22,515 male and 26,883 female). During this year, the number of individuals accessing Mitra Kunci activities increased by 24,128, from 25,270 in the previous year to 49,398. The significant increase in the number of people who are accessing Mitra Kunci activities can be attributed largely to the KKN/PKL-TKWU program conducted by Universities, this number also includes those who attended youth festivals conducted by SINERGI, and other activities under Mitra Kunci, SINERGI and PROGRESIF, Mitra Kunci has reached 89% of the target. The disaggregated data by sex is shown in figure 4 below. Mitra Kunci accounted for 50% of this result.

Indicator 2.3 (EG 6.2): Number of individuals with improved skills following the completion of USG-assisted workforce development programs Improved skills are measured by a pre/post assessments/test. Individuals with a higher score or better results (as defined by the program offered) on the skills post-test are counted. Skills here are meant to include soft skills, vocational skills, technical skills, or other workforce-relevant skills defined by the program offered. Assessments/tests may vary depending on the emphasis of the program. For example, students who complete the KKN/PKL-TKWU program will receive a grade and those students who pass the course (A, B or C) are considered to have improved skills.

The cumulative target through Year Four for this indicator is 24,525 and the total number of individuals with improved skills following the completion of USG-assisted workforce development programs is 23,114 (9,347 male and 13,767 female), In this year, an additional 10,519 students have improved skills after completing the KKN-TKWU program conducted by universities, soft-skills training and education class conducted by SINERGI, and job readiness trainings and career coaching conducted by PROGRESIF, increasing the total number of individuals with improved skills following the completion of a USG- assisted workforce development program from 12,595 in the previous year to 23,082. Mitra Kunci has reached 95% of the target, some universities have not reported the achievement for this indicator because their KKN/PKL-TKWU program have not been completed. Mitra Kunci accounted for 21.645 or 94% of this result and PIs the remaining 6%. Most of Mitra Kunci’s result can be attributed to students who gained improved skills upon completing the KKN/PKL-TKWU program. Cumulatively, 95% of the students who completed the USG Assisted Workforce Deveopment Program have improved skills (23,114 out of 24,403).

Indicator 2.4 (EG 6.1): Number of individuals with new or better employment following completion of USG-assisted workforce development programs This indicator is counted by the number of individuals with new or better employment following completion of USG-assisted workforce development programs. New employment is based on a change in status from not employed to an employed. Better employment is based on the participant’s perception of whether the employment is better (it could be better because it is closer to home, has better pay, growing business, is full time rather than part time, etc.).

The cumulative target through Year Four for this indicator is 6,491 and the actual achievement in this year is 1753 (885 male and 868 female including 72 youth with disabilities), Mitra Kunci has reached 27% of the target. During this year, the number of individuals with new or better employment increased by 1,541, from 212 in the previous year to 1,753. This achievement is still low because the 12,604 students who completed the KKN-TKWU program last year (batch 1, June 2019) are now in their fourth year and will graduate in January 2021 and then seek employment and after which Mitra Kunci will track their progress and expects this number to increase significantly.

Indicator 5.1 (Youth Power): Number of youth reporting increased self-efficacy at the conclusion of USG assisted training/ programming This indicator is counted by the number of youth reporting increased self-efficacy at the conclusion of USG assisted training/ programming. Self-Efficacy surveys consisted of positive self-concept, communication, self-control, goal orientation and high order thinking, social skills and empathy components.

The cumulative target through Year Four for this indicator is 25,000 and the total number of youth who increased their self-efficacy is 10,680 (4,609 male, 6,071 female). This year SINERGI conducted a self- efficacy survey of 765 youth who joined the education class at the youth festival, the survey result showed that 722 out of the 765 survey participants had increased self-efficacy. Mitra Kunci also conducted a self-efficacy survey of 1,433 students who joined the KKN-TKWU program batch 2 (January 2020) from University of Siliwangi, which showed that 1,032 students had increased self- efficacy, increasing the total to 10,680 from 8,926 in the previous year. In total, Mitra Kunci has reached 43% of the target. This achievement is still low because this year, out of 7 universities implementing KKN/PKL-TKWU program, only University of Siliwangi (in batch 2) conducted a self-efficacy survey, while other universities did not. The cumulative result of the self-efficacy survey for all universities will be available in the next reporting period.

Indicator 6.1 (USAID New) Number of companies participating in workforce development programs This indicator measures companies participating in workforce development programs. In this context, a company refers to a private sector entity ranging from small medium expertise and state-owned enterprises to multinational companies. Participating refers to joint-collaboration activities between Mitra Kunci or PIs and a private sector company to strengthen the workforce development program. Activity includes, but is not limited to, participation in a ToT program, delivery of training programs or any other efforts to strengthen the quality of internship and training program curriculum for youth.

The cumulative target through Year Four for this indicator is 462. In total 654 companies have participated in workforce development programs, including participating in a GESI Workshop for the private sector (including member companies such as APINDO, the Accor Hotel group, H&M, etc.), Launching GESI guideline book in the workplace, Youth Festival, POKSI meeting, and promoting inclusive employment through conversions on Kerjabilitas.com, etc.

In this year, an additional 473 companies have participated in workforce development programs, increasing the total to 654 from 181 in the previous year. Mitra Kunci has exceeded the target by 42%. The disaggregated data by PIs is shown in figure 8 below.

8. MAJOR ACTIVITIES PLANNED FOR NEXT YEAR STRATEGIC PRIORITIES

In Year Four, Mitra Kunci developed the following strategic priorities for Year Five:

1. Support Phase 3 (scaling up and Journey to Self-Reliance/J2SR). Mitra Kunci will continue to support activities with the potential to be scaled up and adopted by our partners and relevant stakeholders. We will ensure the best practices and achievement of Phase 2 continue to be reflected in the implementation of the program with government partners (MOEC, MOM and provincial government in three provinces), PI (Saujana), HEIs, private sectors, local CSOs and/or DPOs for the EEE PWD Program in East Java. Mitra Kunci will provide technical assistance to ensure the scaling up and J2SR at the national and sub- national level (provincial and districts) through integrated advocacy activity, extending and utilizing the networks among HEIs, private sector, community organizations and mass media to support and encourage our GOI partners at national and sub-national level to adopt inclusive workforce development programs.

2. Monitor the implementation of the Student Service Program on Entrepreneurship (KKN TKWU). Mitra Kunci will shift to monitoring implementation and providing HEIs with the tools to be able to capture the outcomes of KKN, particularly at the village level. Mitra Kunci will advocate for MOEC to endorse the guidebooks and manuals and expand the KKN TKWU program to more universities and polytechnics.

3. Engage the private sector and business associations to become more inclusive. Mitra Kunci has signed MOUs with APINDO and extended the period of performance through January 2021. In Year Five, Mitra Kunci will continue to work with APINDO and its members to improve their human resources policies to be more gender-sensitive and socially inclusive with the goal of improving the quality of their staff’s employment (better employment).

4. Support the Ministry of Manpower to implement key priorities. Mitra Kunci continues to support the Ministry to implement some of its key priorities, to help them to further develop a strategy and road map for the implementation of community BLKs in Java and the promotion and scale up of the inclusive BLK model.

5. Develop and implement programming to increase employment and economic empowerment of Persons with Disabilities (PWD) in target districts in East Java Province. Mitra Kunci will develop models of successful, scalable, and sustainable solutions for PWDs to gain new or better employment to lead to productive lives as well as build on the scalable model of inclusive development laid out in the prior years of implementation to expand access to employment and develop economic activities of PWD. These models will contribute to development of a comprehensive framework for market-based inclusive workforce development that can be scaled up by the Government of Indonesia to other provinces.

Preparation for replication and scale up of the Mitra Kunci legacy of tools, guidelines, products and models.

An additional key focus of Year Five will be the finalization and publication of practices and approaches that have been proven to work through Mitra Kunci’s activities overall. These documents and practices will support scale up through government and private sector partners. Advocating for scale up will

USAID.GOV USAID MITRA KUNCI INITIATIVE ANNUAL REPORT 2020 | 84

absorb significant staff and partner time and resources, as it is an intensive activity requiring person-to- person as well as organization-to-organization consultations and incorporation of changes along the way to match needs; and the team will need to respond flexibly to each scale up opportunity. The Workforce Development Summit will be an opportunity to showcase all of the legacy materials and promote them more widely through the testimony of those who have used them successfully. Indicatively the following will be included: the GESI Guidelines, the Road Map and Business Planning for Community BLK tools and platform, the e-learning modules for KKN/PKL-TKWU using the Penta Helix model, a concept of development used by local governments in Java which is being applied by Mitra Kunci which combines, or braids, five components of society for greater strength. These five components are government, society or community, academics, business, and the media, and their relative strengths in social power, knowledge and entrepreneurship and information sharing have become the basis for Mitra Kunci’s approach to facilitating change.
