Keterlibatan Warga dalam Pemerintah Daerah di Indonesia: Forum Multi-Pihak dan Koalisi Masyarakat Warga

Summary: This report considers 14 case studies of LGSP support for civil society engagement with local government, identifying factors that foster or inhibit citizen engagement. It considers both activities carried out by civil society organizations (such as advocacy, budget oversight and participation in the planning process) and cases where LGSP has created multi-stakeholder working groups through which civil society organizations and government work together to address public service delivery issues. Based on this analysis, it draws out lessons for government actors, donors and members of civil society as they work to continue to develop effective relationships between citizens and government. The report is accompanied by a CD containing the case studies. (Only available in English.)
