Indonesian Government to the implementation of CEDAW and Beijing Platform for

Gender Mainstreaming in National Development. Since then, gender mainstreaming
has been further strengthened in the National Long Term Development Planning
(RPJPN) 2005-2025, which breaks down into the National Middle Term Development
Planning (RPJMN) 2004-2009, 2010-2014, and 2015-2019 in which gender equality is
mentioned as the goal in the Indonesian development
programme. The
commitment is further strengthened in the policy framework through the issuance
of the Ministry of Finance Regulation PMK No 119/2009 concerning Guideline of
Submission and Review of Annual Ministries Work Plan and Budget. The policy has
laid out the foundation of incorporating gender analysis into the national planning
of the budgeting system in the seven piloted ministries. The seven piloted
ministries consist of three coordinating ministries, namely; Ministry of
National Planning, Ministry of Women Empowerment and Child Protection, Ministry
of Finance. The other four ministries are; Ministry of Agriculture, Ministry of
Education, Ministry of Health and Ministry of Public Works. Priority areas for
the sectoral piloted ministries are given to the programmes and activities on
service delivery and for the driver ministries, the priority is given to
strengthen the structure. After two
years of implementation, in 2011 the government of Indonesia conducted evaluation
of the GRPB piloted both in the national and sub-national level. The result of the
evaluation is positive and it was recommended with further continuation of Gender
Responsive Planning and Budgeting (GRPB) into other ministries and state
institutions. The evaluation also found that the GRPB works well through the
engagement of gender focal points in each ministries. In the sub-national
level, GRPB has been implemented since 2010 in four provinces, namely; Banten,
Yogyakarta, Central Java, and East Java. It is found that commitment of the
Governor and the driver’s institution from the respected province contributed
significantly to the success of GRPB implementation in the provincial
level. Strengthening
and articulating gender mainstreaming into national development plan in 2012,
the four coordinating ministries of gender mainstreaming; Ministry of Women
Empowerment and Child Protection, Ministry of National Development Plan,
Ministry of Finance, Ministry of Home Affairs, endorsed the National Strategy
of Gender Responsive Planning and Budgeting (Perencanaan dan Penganggaran Responsive
Gender/PPRG) covering the period 2012-2014 including the guideline to execute
GRPB in the ministerial level/ state institutions and local government. The objective of the National Strategy of GRPB

level. 2). Providing systematic coordination among drivers and technical
