Description of Project

 

This project, for the Asian Development Bank, involved analysis of the impact of fiscal decentralization at the subnational government level by assessing the financial and public service profiles of nine districts and three provinces in the periods before and after decentralization occurred. The team also prepared detailed fiscal profiles for all districts before and after decentralization so as to analyze the impact of decentralization on regions’ budgets and social sector investments across Indonesia.  The aim of the project was to support regional fiscal management and help identify areas for further capacity building work for the Ministry of Finance as part of its ongoing efforts to improve intergovernmental fiscal relations.  The project culminated in a series of workshops and seminars across the involved provinces and in Jakarta to discuss the findings of the field work and identify policy objectives for the future.
