Strengthening the Indonesia National Water and Sanitation Information Services Center for Improved Planning
(Washington, DC, 2015-03) World Bank
This report summarizes the main achievements of technical assistance provided under the Water Supply and Sanitation Policy Formulation and Action Planning Facility to the Indonesian National Water and Sanitation Information Services (NAWASIS) Centre from October 2012 to December 2014 to further consolidate the water supply and sanitation (WSS) data and information management instrument (NAWASIS Info) as a modular part of the overall services provided by the Centre. It highlights some of the continued challenges of effective WSS monitoring, and proposes strategies for further WSS data and information management development. This reports is divided into nine sections. The first three sections provide background information, including the report purpose, general context and description of the assistance. Sections four to seven describe the progress made in achieving the expected outcomes, while the final two sections describe the future of NAWASIS and some recommendations on moving forward.
Preparing for the Next Crisis : Establishing a Vulnerability and Shock Monitoring and Response System in Indonesia
(World Bank, Jakarta, 2010-10) World Bank
Economic and natural crises and shocks are unfortunately recurring events, but the better a country is prepared for such eventualities, the lesser the impact may be. In 2009, in the wake of the global economic crisis, the Government of Indonesia piloted a Crisis Monitoring and Response System (CMRS). The CMRS experience provides valuable inputs for the design of a long-term Vulnerability and Shock Monitoring and Response System (VSMRS). The CMRS covered the whole country, which meant that there was no need for a priori guesses on where crisis impacts might be worst. This report is intended to provide inputs to a discussion within Government of Indonesia agencies, and between the Government and other interested parties (such as donors, international agencies, etc), on what a nascent VSMRS could look like, and how it could operate. It should be stressed that this document does not provide a blueprint for a fully-fledged VSMRS, primarily because such a system could develop in so many ways that much of what would be elaborated in detail might be of little use. The focus is therefore primarylyon discussing general aspects of a VSMRS, to build a common perception on the general direction of such an initiative between the key stakeholders, and to elaborate the concept later on together with a technical working group tasked to do this.
Crisis Monitoring and Response System
(Washington, DC, 2010-09) World Bank
This document contains a detailed description of the design, development, and operations of the Crisis Monitoring and Response System (CMRS). It covers the period from January 2009, when the CMRS was initiated, until September 2010 when the final CMRS reports (including this one) were completed. In addition to providing a definitive record of CMRS design and operational decisions, the document describes the results of the analyses based on the data collected. The document is intended to be the definitive source of reference material. It should prove particularly useful if and when consideration is given to the design, development and implementation of crisis monitoring system in the future. The ultimate objective was to ensure timely and appropriate policy responses in those districts identified as adversely affected as result of the global economic crisis (or any other shock). The output was to be an operational CMRS, comprising a data collection system and analyses that facilitated identification of appropriate responses. Funding for the CMRS was provided by Australian Government agency responsible for managing Australia's overseas aid program (AusAID). The level of funding determined the scale of the CMRS. The budget was sufficient to support three rounds of a survey collecting data via a relatively short questionnaire from about 15,000 households.
Economic Impact Analysis of Kecamatan Development Program Infrastructure Projects
(World Bank, Washington, DC, 2005-01) Torrens, Anthony
The Government of Indonesia and the World Bank commissioned this independent study to conduct a post-construction economic impact analysis on 113 Kecamatan Development Program (KDP) rural infrastructure projects to determine the overall economic benefits that have accrued to the villages that planned and built infrastructure facilities according to the KDP Community Driven Development approach. This study expands on the scale and scope of the initial economic analysis that was completed for 41 KDP projects in November 2001 under KDP 1. That study was limited to calculating Economic Internal Rates of Return only. In contrast, this study focuses on three main activities: (1) Assessing tangible benefits by calculating the Economic Internal Rates of Return for the four types of KDP rural infrastructure; (2) Analysing the overall macro-economic impact of new income generated by KDP infrastructure activities within the local village economies by using (i) a General Income Multiplier Analysis and (ii) Project-Specific Quality of Life Indicators to capture certain intangible benefits that have accrued since the project s completion; and (3) Undertake a Least-Cost Analysis by re-costing KDP infrastructure projects using local contractor rates to determine what the same project would cost if tendered out by local government to local contractors.
