This consultation developed and implemented a costing study to estimate the financial requirements of disaster response and recovery in Indonesia, using case studies from two major natural disasters in 2024. The study aimed to generate evidence-based insights to inform more equitable and effective disaster financing policies and practices.
Indonesia is one of the most disaster-prone countries in the world, with floods, landslides, and volcanic eruptions threatening over 40% of the population. Yet, financing mechanisms for post-disaster response and recovery remain under-resourced and fragmented. This study—commissioned by Save the Children and CIS Timor and conducted by SINEXUS—focused on quantifying the costs of emergency response and long-term recovery following two 2024 disasters: the landslide-flood in Padang Pariaman (West Sumatra) and the eruption of Mount Lewotobi Laki-laki (East Flores, NTT).
Using a mixed-method approach—literature review, micro-costing analysis, and key informant interviews—the study captured the financial and operational dimensions of interventions across sectors such as education, child protection, health, nutrition, water-sanitation-hygiene (WASH), and livelihoods. The micro-costing framework covered both direct costs (e.g., staffing, equipment, materials) and indirect costs (e.g., logistics, maintenance, infrastructure recovery).
The study produced detailed cost estimates for each intervention, offering valuable data for policymakers to strengthen fiscal preparedness and contingency budgeting. It also recommended institutionalizing micro-costing practices within disaster management agencies, enhancing community-based recovery planning, and improving coordination between government and non-governmental actors.
This consultation provides a critical knowledge base for building resilient disaster recovery systems in Indonesia. It supports advocacy for more inclusive and needs-based financing mechanisms that address both immediate and structural impacts of disasters—ensuring that no vulnerable group is left behind in post-disaster recovery.

Save the Children in Cambodia, funded by Save the Children Japan
The Cambodian government has been committed to providing quality and inclusive education for all over the past decades. Examples included the formation of Special Education Department (SED) in 2016, the National Institute of Special Education (NISE), the operations of six Special Education High Schools, the development and use of learning and teaching materials for persons with visual, hearing, intellectual disabilities, and persons with autism, and training to teachers on inclusive education. Despite the efforts, access to basic education is still varied across groups of children, with children with disabilities facing the most barriers.
In collaboration with Save the Children in Cambodia and Save the Children Japan, our team provides technical advice to the Cambodian government and the Working Group on Education and Disabilities (WGED) to further understand the need to strengthen inclusive basic education in the country.
This study aims to identify the root causes of low completion and high dropout rates in basic education to understand various educational needs, and clarify the needs and challenges faced by children with disabilities while accessing and participating in basic education. The findings will generate evidence-based recommendations to enhance sustainable and effective programs in Cambodia, meeting the diverse educational needs of out-of-school children (OOSC) and children with disabilities for ensuring quality and inclusive learning in basic education.

Yayasan IPAS Indonesia
This consultancy assess the reactions, learning, behavioral changes, and outcomes/impacts of participation in blended family planning training organized by IPAS Indonesia. Additional objectives of this study were to assess participant satisfaction, challenges, and perceived benefits of participation. Blended training organized by Ipas Indonesia, based on the national curriculum as part of the CERAH project will be assessed in this study. The proposed study will complement the current training assessment system, namely pre- and post-tests. These trainings involve 8 days of online training and 6 days of offline training. To date, the trainings have been conducted in four waves in Palu, Southeast Sulawesi (as part of the CERAH project).
A mixed of a qualitative and quantitative analysis is used. Quantitative knowledge assessments at 3 and 6 months after the training were also conducted to complement the analysis. Qualitative studies are proposed as the main approach proposed - both through self-administered surveys and focus group discussions. Data obtained from the qualitative survey were triangulated with secondary data obtained from e-LMS and sociodemographic surveys.

Potential of adaptive and inclusive social protection for people with multi-drug resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) in Indonesia
Ibnu Habibie, Estro Dariatno Sihaloho, Iqbal Fadrullah, Yodi Christiani
Stop TB Partnerships Indonesia
This consultation assessed the landscape and needs for social protection among people affected by drug-resistant tuberculosis (TBC-RO) in Indonesia, aiming to inform policy advocacy for the development of inclusive and adaptive social protection (SP) schemes tailored to this vulnerable group.
Conducted in 2024, this mixed-method study was commissioned to generate evidence to support the Indonesian government’s emerging commitment—articulated during a Presidential directive in July 2023—to provide direct social support beyond the existing Family Hope Program (PKH). The study built on the WHO–ILO framework for social protection for TB-affected populations, focusing on mapping the current SP landscape, identifying patient needs, estimating ideal benefit levels, and exploring policy implementation challenges at both national and subnational levels.
Through literature reviews, secondary data analysis, and qualitative fieldwork in three districts (Deli Serdang, Sidoarjo, Makassar) and Jakarta, the study revealed critical gaps in protection. Key findings highlighted significant financial hardship across all treatment phases, especially during the intensive phase. Patients reported selling assets or borrowing money, while caregivers faced lost productivity and stigma. Urban patients prioritized nutrition, while rural patients emphasized transportation support.
Cost simulations showed that a modest but well-targeted SP scheme—covering transport, food, and supplements—would require Rp1.25–1.4 million per patient per month. While donor-funded programs like the Global Fund’s TBC Enabler provide temporary relief, long-term sustainability hinges on government ownership and interministerial coordination.
This consultation underscored the feasibility and urgency of a targeted SP program for TBC-RO, offering actionable insights for national policymakers, including the Ministry of Social Affairs, Ministry of Health, and the Coordinating Ministry for Human Development and Cultural Affairs. It recommends advancing multi-sector collaboration and leveraging existing social protection infrastructure to ensure that no patient is left behind in Indonesia’s journey toward TB elimination.
Maternal and neonatal infection treatment and sepsis prevention in Indonesia: A Literature Review
Maria Silvia Merry, Ibnu Habibie, Iqbal Fadrullah, Yodi Christiani
Yayasan Project HOPE
This consultation provided a comprehensive desk review to assess existing standards, policies, and practices on the prevention and treatment of maternal and neonatal infections, with a focus on sepsis in Indonesia. The review aimed to support the development of evidence-based interventions in the next phase of Project HOPE’s maternal and newborn health (MNH) programming.
This study applied a structured literature review methodology, organized around three core activities: (1) comparison of global and national clinical guidelines; (2) examination of the implementation status of infection prevention and control (IPC) within maternal and neonatal care; and (3) synthesis of findings across four thematic areas—clinical procedures, prophylactic antibiotic use, infection treatment and sepsis management, and early identification of sepsis
The review found significant discrepancies between Indonesian and global standards, particularly in antibiotic stewardship and IPC protocols. It also revealed uneven implementation and compliance in clinical practices across facilities—such as inconsistent hand hygiene, umbilical cord care, and the use of prophylactic antibiotics in routine obstetric procedures. Limited resources, outdated clinical guidelines, and weak health information systems were identified as core challenges to improving infection prevention and management. By consolidating these findings, the consultation generated key recommendations for Project HOPE and its partners, including the need to update national clinical guidelines in alignment with WHO standards, enhance healthcare worker training on IPC and rational antibiotic use, and improve facility-level monitoring and compliance mechanisms. This review contributes critical insights to support evidence-informed policy advocacy and program design in advancing maternal and newborn infection care in Indonesia.

The assessment aims to evaluate the gender responsiveness of the SMILE (Sistem Monitoring Imunisasi Logistik secara Elektronik) application in Indonesia, focusing on how digital health innovations can promote equitable access, participation, and decision-making in the health system. Conducted through a qualitative study across four provinces and the Ministry of Health, the assessment provides key insights into the intersection of gender and digital transformation in public health logistics. The study applied a gender mainstreaming framework across six domains—access, practice and participation, knowledge, beliefs, and power in decision-making—and involved 80 respondents (46 women, 34 men) through FGDs and interviews.
Key findings revealed both shared and distinct gendered experiences. While both men and women found SMILE effective in improving vaccine logistics, women often faced compounded barriers due to dual roles at home and work. For instance, women reported more challenges attending online training due to time conflicts, while men expressed a preference for technical aspects of in-person sessions. Women leaned on peer support for post-training learning, whereas men tended to self-study.
The assessment ultimately calls for gender-transformative policies in digital health, such as inclusive training models, equitable task allocation, and recognition of women's contributions to strategic health planning. It provides timely evidence to guide SMILE’s evolution as a people-centered, gender-equitable digital health innovation.
