Program Background

Prospera is a A$304 million eight-year program building on two decades of Australia’s support for economic governance in Indonesia. Prospera incorporates 15 Australian Government agencies and over 200 expert advisers and program staff from diverse backgrounds. Prospera also collaborates closely with the Katalis program to realise the benefits of the Indonesia-Australia Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement.

Prospera’s goal is to contribute to strong, sustainable, and inclusive economic growth in Indonesia through three breakthrough outcomes:

• Expanding markets creating jobs: Building a robust private sector that creates more high value jobs.
• Safeguarding economic and financial stability: Ensuring a strong foundation for sustainable and inclusive growth.
• Improving public finances and government performance: Enabling a modern, effective and responsible public sector.

Underpinning these breakthrough areas are three enablers: capable and coordinated institutions that support Indonesia’s development transition; gender equality and disability inclusion are advanced; and government of Indonesia and Australia partnerships strengthen.

Prospera delivers climate and energy activities as part of the policy and regulatory workstreams of an Australia-Indonesia climate partnership. The energy transition is a significant opportunity for Indonesia to create competitive industries and jobs in pursuit of its 2045 ambition of becoming an advanced nation.

Prospera commenced in March 2018 and will conclude in February 2026.

Prospera encourages recent women graduates (and/or currently studying) in the various economic development fields to apply, in order to help promote the pool of prospective female professionals in Indonesia.  Prospera will, however, welcome applications from all candidates with academic qualifications in relevant fields, and a keen interest in economic development issues.
