“National
Consultant to Support the National Coordination Team
– Capturing Demand
for South–South and Triangular
Cooperation in Indonesia”The Joint Indonesian – German Project ” South-South and Triangular Cooperation and Networks for Global Governance” (SSTC/NGG), Implemented by GIZ A. BackgroundIndonesia
is playing an important role on the international stage. As an active member of the G20,
the ASEAN and
the High–Level Panel on the Global Development Framework beyond 2015, the
country has taken responsibility in shaping global policies. One key element of this
development is the heavy engagement of Indonesia in the area of South–South and
Triangular Cooperation (SSTC) which also directly corresponds to the
Sustainable Development Goals; goal 17 in particular. To
further improve the coordination and also to develop binding standards for the
related institutions in implementing their programs in SSTC, a National
Coordination Team for South–South and Triangular Cooperation (NCT) has been
established. This team comprises of the
Ministry of National Development Planning (Badan/Kementerian Perencanaan
Pembangunan Nasional/BAPPENAS), the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (Kementerian
Luar Negeri), the Ministry of Finance (Kementerian Keuangan) and the Ministry
of State Secretariat (Kementerian Sekretariat Negara). Since
its establishment in 2010, NCT has successfully developed coordination
mechanisms between its member ministries, line ministries and other relevant
partners and stakeholders. Through the establishment and
continuous development of the NCT Indonesia has been able to strengthen its
international position in the SSTC sector.
Further, the Medium–term National Development Plan (Rencana Pembangunan
Jangka Menengah Nasional/
RPJMN 2015–2019) defines a one gate policy that will lead to the establishment
of a single entity to implement Indonesia’s SSTC in the future. Commissioned by
German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ), the joint Indonesian–German
“South–South and Triangular Cooperation and Networks
for Global Governance” (SSTC/NGG)
implemented by GIZ will seek to further strengthen Indonesia in SSTC Cooperation and in its
role within the jointly identified Networks for Global Governance.
