SUMMARY
SUMMARY The governance of the KOMPAK Program requires a joint supervision mission to monitor program implementation, by the Government of Indonesia (represented by members of the Technical Committee), the Australian Government (represented by officials/staff of the Embassy), and the KOMPAK Management Team, to be conducted on a regular basis – at least twice per year. This report summaries the supervision mission conducted in the District of Lombok Utara (NTB Province) and the District of Pangkajene and Kepulauan (South Sulawesi Province) during the period 5 to 7 June 2017. This supervision mission assessed, progress achieved toward outcomes, indications of good practices, and lessons learned for program implementation. The main focus of this first supervision mission was on basic services. The KOMPAK Program has an ultimate goal of enabling poor and vulnerable communities to benefit from improved delivery of basic services and the designed to economic opportunities. The strategic support of the KOMPAK Program is designed to systems related to the governance of basic services, including encouraging multi-stakeholder and multi-level collaboration to expand access and improve the quality of basic services. KOMPAK support and work plan is respond to the needs and priorities of the regions. Local governments have shown positive response, strong buy in and involvement in the implementation of program support. The Supervision Mission Team appreciates the excellent relationship and cooperation between local government and the KOMPAK team. From the visits to these two regions, the Supervision Mission Team concluded that the KOMPAK Program has made significant progress. The results of the activities are aligned with the End-of-Facility Outcomes (EOFOs). Indications of service improvements in service units, such as sub-district offices and community health centers, in both districts are beginning to be seen. JOINT SUPERVISION MISSION REPORT 4 IMPLEMENTATION OF KOMPAK PROGRAM IN THE REGIONS
The program support initiatives for mainstreaming basic services in rural development are becoming visible, with the increasing allocation of village budget for basic services. The joint initiatives of program partner institutions and local governments encourage the involvement of community groups, particularly vulnerable groups, to benefit from village- level development, such as legal identity ownership and education assistance for people with disabilities. Some of the pilot activity initiatives have also been replicated by local governments using their own local budget (APBD) – for example, the initiative to accelerate legal identity ownership outcomes in two districts, and the development of a village information system (SID) in Lombok Utara. There are plans to develop interconnectivity between SID and district level information system. The Supervision Mission Team highlighted lessons learned to be considered when designing program improvement strategies. Recommendations included: the need for harmonisation of policy support at the central and regional levels; continuous capacity building; systematic documentation of good practices, replication support by regions; optimising provincial roles; and suggestions for improving the next supervision mission. In addition, the Supervision Mission Team also recommended that the KOMPAK Program consider new priority proposals submitted by the regions. These included support for: improving governance in the education sector; accreditation of community health centers (puskesmas), management of grievances and complaints related to services; analysis of sub-district budgets related to the implementation of delegation of authority; operationalisation of the 'Self-Sufficient Village' ('Desa Mandiri') concept (Pangkajene and Kepulauan District); and the development of innovative basic service models in accordance with the archipelagic context, which has its own challenging characteristics. JOINT SUPERVISION MISSION REPORT IMPLEMENTATION OF KOMPAK PROGRAM IN THE REGIONS 5
PREFACE Part of the National Medium-Term Development Plan (RPJMN) 2015–2019, and the government's poverty eradication efforts are to improve and expand basic services for the poor and vulnerable. An important focus of this work is the fulfilment of Minimum Service Standards (SPM) for compulsory public services, including: legal identity; social protection; health; education; and basic infrastructure. The KOMPAK Program supports these efforts through strengthening systems and institutions by focusing on: 1 Improving efficiency and effectiveness of the governance of basic services implementation. 2 Increasing access and quality in the expansion and improvement of basic services for poor and vulnerable communities. 3 Strengthening participation of the community in the fulfilment of basic services through empowerment. The governance of the KOMPAK Program requires a joint supervision mission to monitor program implementation, by the Government of Indonesia (represented by members of the Technical Committee), the Australian Government (represented by officials/staff of the Embassy), and the KOMPAK Management Team to be conducted on a regular basis – at least twice per year. This report summaries the supervision mission conducted in the District of Lombok Utara (NTB Province) and the District of Pangkajene and Kepulauan (South Sulawesi Province) during the period 5 to 7 June 2017. This supervision mission assessed progress achieved toward outcomes, indications of good practices, and lessons learned for improving program implementations. The main focus of this first supervision mission was on basic services. JOINT SUPERVISION MISSION REPORT 6 IMPLEMENTATION OF KOMPAK PROGRAM IN THE REGIONS

PROGRESS OF PROGRAM IMPLEMENTATION: OBSERVATIONS, LESSONS, AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Lombok Utara District, NTB Province As part of the accelerated birth registration, every baby born in Tanjung General Hospital, Lombok Utara District, will be given a birth certificate immediately after birth. Program Relevance, Engagement and Commitment KOMPAK's activities in Lombok Utara District started at the end of 2015. KOMPAK support was well received by the Lombok Utara District Government, including the regional head and all related local agencies. Support from KOMPAK was considered relevant to the district's (bupati's) vision and mission, as well as regional priorities related to improving basic services. The Supervision Mission Team observed a strong sense of commitment, ownership and involvement of local government in the implementation of program support. Institutionally, the coordination of cooperation and support of the KOMPAK Program is integrated with existing institutions, namely the Regional Poverty Eradication Coordination Team (TKPKD) of Lombok Utara District (Head of District Decree [SK] No. 38A/2017). The implementation of KOMPAK's support is achieved through cross-sectoral forums, which are coordinated by the Regional Secretary (Sekda) or Regional Development Planning Agency (Bappeda) and each respective local agency.

Overall, findings from The Nusa Tenggara Barat Child Protection Agency (LPA), a strategic partner of KOMPAK, implemented a Village-Based Community Legal KOMPAK's monitoring and evaluation Identity Compliance Program through Revitalisation of Local Wisdom in tools indicate that KOMPAK has made Lombok Utara District. This program has been running since July 2016 significant progress toward meeting and implemented in Loloan, Sambik Elen, Bayan, Anyar, and Akaar-Akar Village in Bayan Sub-district. One of its activities is to conduct a marriage shorter and intermediate term output confirmation session (sidang istbat) with the purpose of allowing the targets and progress toward longer term parents to obtain their marriage registration, so that their children's birth goals and expected longer term certificates can then be processed. outcomes. In November 2016, Loloan Village held a marriage registration session for 27 couples, which was self-financed by the communities. Upon realising In a meeting with the Supervision Mission the importance of legal identity, the community voiced their opinion on the importance of budgeting for marriage registration for those who Team, the Lombok Utara District Head could not afford it. This opinion is supported by the head of village and expressed his appreciation for the other village apparatus. 'This year, 2017, we are budgeting 37 million support given so far. rupiah in the Village Budget to finance 50 couples to conduct a marriage registration session. The funds came from the Village Fund,' added Examples of specific activities and Kariadi. progress towards outcomes are outlined By conducting village meetings, collection of required documents, mobile services, integrated marriage registration services, and below. adolescent capacity building for Minimum Age for Marriage (PUP), in June 2017, the West Nusa Tenggara Child Protection Agency has reached 3,695 beneficiaries in Lombok Utara District. 'There were many children under 18 years old who did not have birth u District Level certificates. But now ownership of birth certificates can reach 99 percent. This is also accomplished by cooperation with the neighbourhood units Policy and regulation: The issuance of (RT), community units (RW), community figures, cadres, integrated health services post (posyandu), school principals, and teachers who various regulations (Head of District were involved in the legal identity working group.

This decree focuses on supporting the cross- sectoral coordination of education, health, and legal identity basic services in sub-districts (Head of Lombok, Utara District Decree No. 232/25/Pem/2017). This example of good practice has also been replicated in Lombok Timur District. § Head of District Regulation on Strengthening Village Governance. Fifteen Head of District Regulations have been issued related to financial management, village authority, village information system, procurement of goods and services in the village, and village financial management. JOINT SUPERVISION MISSION REPORT IMPLEMENTATION OF KOMPAK PROGRAM IN THE REGIONS 11
§ Head of District Regulation on the Acceleration of Birth Certificate Coverage. § Head of District Decree on the Determination of Sub-district as the Location of Sub-District Integrated Administration Services (PATEN). Minimum Service Standards: Minimum Service Standards were integrated into the Regional Medium-Term Development Plan (RPJMD) of 2016–2021. Moreover, the Regional Secretary and OPD leaders from the Education Office and Health Office, signed the Integrity Pact to integrate the Minimum Service Standards into the OPD budget planning document. Service unit innovation: Jaring PEKAT (birth registration through education, health, and communities) is the institutionalisation of multi-stakeholder/cross-sectoral innovations to improve legal identity and civil registration processes. Innovations include: integrated mobile services for legal identity (e.g. marriage registration), integration of birth registration with services at health centers and hospitals, and cooperation with non-governmental partner organisations (NTB Child Protection Agency) for community-based legal identity services. The birth registration in the hospital is fast (30 minutes) and online. Another strategy is to apply Metode Jempolan (pick up the documents, process them, and the result is immediately delivered). In Loloan Village, where this strategy is being applied, more than 99 percent of children have birth certificates. This example of good practice has also been replicated. Progress Toward outcomes: As indicated by data from the Civil Administration Information System (SIAK) of the MoHa, birth certificate coverage for children 0 to 18 years of age in Lombok Utara District has increased tremendously. Birth certificate coverage rates have increased since the implementation of the Jaring PEKAT program in May 2016 from 64 percent to 85 percent in May 2017. This rate is the highest in the province (the average across NTB is 61 percent) and exceeds the national target (80 percent) for 2017. 64% 85% May 2016 May 2017 Image 1 Ownership of Birth Certificate for Children Aged 0–18 Years Old in Lombok Utara District u Sub-district Level § Capacity building. § Training for camats on leadership, basic services, and innovation. §.

§. PTPD provides technical guidance and supervision of governance management and rural development in villages, including mainstreaming of basic services in village planning and budgeting. The PTPD have been involved in facilitating the mainstreaming of basic services in the 2017 village Development Planning Forums (Musrenbang) and evaluating 2017 village budget planning. § Head of Sub-district Decree (SK) on Sub-district Integrated Administration Services (PATEN) Team. Service Reform: Improved services in the sub-district office through PATEN, including integration of civil registry and legal identity. Budget: Increased budget allocations for sub-districts to support the delegation of district's authorities to the sub-district. With the issuance of the Decree on delegation of some authorities of the head of district to the head of sub-district, four sub-districts received an additional budget of IDR 200 million each, and one sub-district received IDR 600 million. Coordination: Strengthened multi-stakeholder and cross-sectoral coordination for the implementation and monitoring of development activities in general, and basic services in particular. This has begun with the involvement of village cadres from community groups, especially groups of women, people with disabilities, and children of migrant workers. u Village Level Village Information System (SID): Program support for the development of SID has been replicated by Lombok Utara District. A total of 33 villages already have online SID. Other villages have used different SID components to streamline administrative processes such as the printing of documents. Further strengthening is required for information management so that data and evidence can be used to support village development and shared with higher levels of government. The interconnection process with the districts is being prepared by the local government to be implemented in the 2018 fiscal year. Village expenditure allocation for basic services: Village budget allocations for basic services has increased significantly – from 14 percent in 2016 to 25 percent in 2017. Lombok Utara District plans to adopt and replicate the good practice of mainstreaming these basic services for all villages in the 2018 fiscal year. Budget transparency: The village budget summary has been published on billboards and on the village information system website (http://www.loloan-lombokutara.desa.id/index.php/first).

Pangkajene and Kepulauan District South Sulawesi Province Marriage confirmation session as part of the integrated civil services in Liukang Tuppabiring Utara Sub-District. Program Relevance, Engagement and Commitment KOMPAK activities in Pangkajene and Kepulauan District is relatively new. The KOMPAK Program started in South Sulawesi Province in early 2016, but it was limited to the frontline services pilots. The presence of the 'full' KOMPAK program – with adequate work plan and budget, as well as relatively complete personnel – began only in early 2017. The support provided by the KOMPAK Program received excellent acceptance from the District Government of Pangkajene and Kepulauan, including from the regional heads and all related local agencies. The support from the program was felt to be very relevant to the vision and mission of the head of district and regional priorities related to the efforts to improve basic services delivery. Current program support, with a focus on developing mechanisms for archipelagic regions, is also considered to be highly relevant to the overall regional characteristics, particularly the number of small and scattered islands. The outcomes of the program support are expected to be used as models of good practice that can be replicated in other islands regions. The Supervision Mission Team perceived a strong sense of ownership and active involvement of the related local government officials in the implementation of the program.

Institutionally, the implementation of Achieving Quality Health Services for KOMPAK Program is coordinated by a Communities in the Archipelago special team. The technical team was established through the Decree of the 'It used to be difficult for us to go to the community health centres Head of District with funding from the (puskesmas).

In 2015, Liukang Tuppabiring Utara Sub-district became one of the areas of KOMPAK's work in Pangkajene and Kepulauan District. KOMPAK's main focus in this district is to help the local government improve coverage and quality of basic services (education, health, and legal identity) in four sub- Progress and Outcome districts in the islands. This is done through the development of a human resources model and a performance-based management system. Summary: : The KOMPAK work plan in KOMPAK, together with the local government, encourages the Pangkajene and Kepulauan District improvement of services in Puskesmas. This effort occurs through basic service management training, Puskesmas management training, and focuses on: kecamatan strengthening, Village Government Technical Facilitators' training. 'KOMPAK always i m p ro v i n g l e ga l i d e n t i t y, c i v i l provides advice to realise the child-friendly Puskesmas and care about registration processes and rates, the needs of vulnerable groups,' explained Ruslan.

JOINT SUPERVISION MISSION REPORT IMPLEMENTATION OF KOMPAK PROGRAM IN THE REGIONS 15
u District Level Policy and regulation: Facilitation and support for the development and revision of several regulations (Head of District Regulation and Decree) related to: § Head of District Regulation on Village Development Planning. § Head of District Regulation on Strengthening of Village Governance (financial management, village authority, procurement of goods and services in the village, village unit cost, Village Information System, Village-Owned Enterprises [BUMDES] and efficient technology, and acceleration of rural development). § Draft Head of District Regulation on the Enhancement of Early Initiation of Breastfeeding (IMD) and Exclusive Breastmilk (ASI). § Draft Regional Regulation on Village Consultative Council (BPD). Acceleration of legal identity: Program support for improving legal identity and civil administration procedures and outcomes through integrated multi-sectoral mobile services in Liukang Tuppabiring Utara Sub-district. The district government will replicate similar support for all sub-districts using local budget (APBD) funds. This replication initiative is called the Complete Civil Administration Movement (GERTAK) and has been planned for the 2018 fiscal year. u Sub-district Level Service improvement in puskesmas: The service in Sabutung Puskesmas, Liukang Tuppabiring Utara Sub-district has shown significant progress. There was a Puskesmas that was known last year by the public as the 'haunted' Puskesmas and was never visited by residents, and was not occupied by the head of Puskesmas and staff. This Puskesmas has now turned into a Puskesmas with much better service quality. This is marked by a more organised service schedule, physical conditions that are more pleasing and visitor-friendly, and information boards showing the rights of patients and obligations of the management of the Puskesmas. The head of the Puskesmas and other health workers now live in the official residences located in the Puskesmas. This change is reflected in the increasing number of visits to the Puskesmas, as well as outreach services to the islands around the Puskesmas. Services reform at the office of sub-district head: Service improvements can also be seen at the Liukang Tuppabiring Utara Sub-district office. Prior to KOMPAK's support for assistance and training of the sub-district head, the sub-district office looked uncared for, and the community rarely came to the office to obtain administrative services. Currently, the sub-district head's office looks more organised, cleaner, and more professionally managed. One of the service types that can now be accessed by the community is the integrated service of various legal identity documents, including marriage certificates acquired through istbat nikah (marriage confirmation), birth certificates, electronic identity, and family cards. As a follow-up of this integrated service, the Head of Liukang Tuppabiring Utara Sub-district also had an idea for mobile integrated services by using a boat called PERAHU PEKAT. This innovation was proposed by the head of sub-district as a result of a training on innovative ways to strengthen sub-district basic services. The training was initiated by KOMPAK. Declaration of shared commitment to basic services: The Head of Liukang Tuppabiring Utara Sub- district and all village heads in his region agreed on a joint declaration: Memorandum of Understanding and Shared Commitment to Mainstreaming of Basic Services in Planning and JOINT SUPERVISION MISSION REPORT 16 IMPLEMENTATION OF KOMPAK PROGRAM IN THE REGIONS
Budgeting. The Declaration basically confirms their commitment to the mainstreaming of basic services in governance management and village development, and includes: development of village information systems, including databases with the data team from villages and funded by the villages; basic services implementation in accordance with the village authorities and cooperation with the service units; mother and child health services; early childhood education (PAUD) implementation; providing legal services for all residents; ensuring services for people with disabilities; providing access to information on the use of village budget; and service enhancement of the sub-district's office. The agreement will be the guidance for all parties to monitor the progress of the services. u Village Level Participation and social inclusion: Facilitated by the program partner institutions, at the community level, we have begun to see the participation of women's groups and disability groups, particularly in the process of village development. Both groups are beginning to recognise the importance of legal identity ownership to access basic services such as health and education. In an integrated service model conducted at the sub-district office, electronic identity card (e-KTP) services have been provided to disability groups. Village Fund budget allocation: In addition, part of the Village Fund budget has also been allocated for women and disability groups. Data on the number of disability community groups and the needs of disability groups has been included as a priority target in the Village Medium-Term Development Plan and Village Budget 2017 in the village. Disability group discussions and women's group discussions are held every three months to discuss development issues in the village, including ensuring that the interests of the disabled and women and the poor are represented in the village planning and budgeting. These regular discussions help the group members to practise speaking and expressing opinions. JOINT SUPERVISION MISSION REPORT IMPLEMENTATION OF KOMPAK PROGRAM IN THE REGIONS 17
LESSONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS ON IMPROVING THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE KOMPAK PROGRAM
The importance of building relationships: Good relationships, trust, and effective facilitation by the KOMPAK team at the provincial and district levels are important factors to ensure acceptance and support for the program from the local government. The KOMPAK team and local government, through the Provincial and District Technical Team, periodically discuss the progress and challenges of program implementation, which are reported to the head of district. The Supervision Mission Team in both regions expressed their appreciation for the excellent cooperation between the KOMPAK team and each respective local government. They have high hopes that the relationships and trust that have been established will be maintained. The importance of harmonising policy support: Program support needs to be aligned at the central and regional levels. Some activities in the regions require regulatory support at the central level, whichmay still be in the finalisation stage. This includes regulatory support required for the delegation of some of the head of district's authorities to the head of sub-district for basic services as well as the role of the sub-district apparatus technical facilitators for strengthening village governance. Continuous capacity building: Capacity building activities need to be done continuously, as illustrated below: § Village information system development needs to be followed by data/information management enhancement and applications for the use of data and evidence for the planning and budgeting. § Training for the heads of sub-districts and villages needs to be revised, so that training corresponds to the latest policy developments and technical knowledge needs. Materials should be diverse including soft skills, such as leadership and communication skills. § Training of the Village Government Technical Facilitators should involve service units and village assistants needs with a focus on strengthening the facilitation capability of the village apparatus to unpack and respond to basic service issues. § Delegation of authority to the head of sub-district, as well as the addition of budget allocation to the sub-district should be followed by capacity building to exercise such authority and budget. § Need for strengthening the capacity, including the role of technical guidance and supervision, from provinces and districts in stages, to provide more effective support to sub-districts and villages. Capacity building of women's groups and groups with disabilities: Capacity building activities need to be done continuously, as illustrated below: JOINT SUPERVISION MISSION REPORT IMPLEMENTATION OF KOMPAK PROGRAM IN THE REGIONS 19
§ Capacity building of women's groups and groups with disabilities by using assistance from local civil society organisations (CSOs). § Ensuring the mainstreaming of gender equality and social inclusion (GESI) in capacity building training of service units and sub-district apparatus, through the involvement of women and people with disabilities' groups as resource persons. § Involvement of the Village Consultative Council (BPD) in strengthening women and people with disabilities' groups. § Sub-district forums led by the heads of sub-districts should involve representatives of women and people with disabilities' groups in the coordination of basic services. Documentation of good practices and replication by local government: KOMPAK support can be used to replicate activities with other resources of the local government. Good practices have already begun to appear and have been – or are planned to be – replicated by the local government with their own resources (for example, acceleration of legal identity/civil administration, village information system development, mainstreaming of basic services in villages). Such replication can take place both within and between districts. The strategy of Lombok Utara District in accelerating the legal identity outcome, for example, through a forum of experience exchange, was adopted by Bima District, and Success in village information system development has inspired other districts in NTB Province. Therefore, systematic documentation of good practices is required, so it can be easily replicated by the regions using the Regional Budget or Special Allocation Funds (DAK). Optimising the role of provinces: The coordination team at the provincial level has an important role in program governance. Provinces can also play a role in facilitating the exchange of experiences, including good practices, across districts – in addition to monitoring progress. In the NTB Province, for example, there has been an inter-regional forum with the theme of legal identity/civil administration. The role of the provincial team can still be further optimised to encourage the exchange of experiences and replication of good practices for all areas in the region. Feedback related to program governance and implementation of the supervision mission: Members of the team have an unequal level of involvement in the program; was their first time involved in KOMPAK. Meanwhile, types and volume of activities detailed are relatively significant. Lessons from this mission suggest the following: § Better documentation of activities is needed. Ministries, especially those who are members of the Technical Committee, need to obtain information on activity implementation. § For the implementation of the next supervision mission: w Need explanation on the overall progress of the program for each region visited at the beginning of the supervision mission. w Need to increase the involvement of the program's Provincial Technical Team in the planning and implementation of the supervision mission. It is suggested that there is a special meeting of the supervision team with the Provincial Technical Team . w More time should be given for the mission, especially visits at the district, sub-district, and village levels. JOINT SUPERVISION MISSION REPORT 20 IMPLEMENTATION OF KOMPAK PROGRAM IN THE REGIONS
RECOMMENDATIONS FOR NEW PRIORITIES
Based on observations and discussions during the supervision mission, including suggestions from local governments, the team recommended that KOMPAK provides support related to: § Education sector governance – specific support can be tailored to the context of the issues and priorities of each region's plan. § Accreditation of Puskesmas, including the development of grievance/complaint handling mechanisms to manage feedback from the community on the provision of services. § Analysis of the sub-district budget allocations to support the implementation of authority delegation. Special Recommendations for Pangkajene and Kepulauan District l Operationalisation of the 'Self-Sufficient Village' (Desa Mandiri) approach, which is the district's flagship program, particularly the priorities that are in line with KOMPAK's framework in basic services and economic opportunities. l Development of an innovative basic service model specifically for regions with archipelagic characteristics (small islands that are dispersed with difficult accessibility), including mobile health services, education, and legal identity. Special Recommendations for Lombok Utara District l It is necessary to explore the possibility of developing village enterprises to push the acceleration of poverty reduction based on the local potential resources and tourism in Lombok Utara District. JOINT SUPERVISION MISSION REPORT 22 IMPLEMENTATION OF KOMPAK PROGRAM IN THE REGIONS
SUMMARY AND CONCLUSION
There is high commitment and involvement of local government at district, sub- district, and village levels for KOMPAK support in Lombok Utara District and Pangkajene and Kepulauan District. This is in line with the vision and mission of the head of district, who is concerned about basic services, and thus supports the acceleration of basic services improvement in the region. Constructive collaboration takes place between the community and government to promote access improvement, quality, and more accountable basic services. Based on results of the mission, several of the main areas of progress include improved legal identity, which has resulted in increased birth certificate coverage for children aged 0–18 years to approximately 85 percent. The integrated services initiative undertaken in Liukang Tupabbiring Utara Sub-district (KOMPAK's assisted sub- district) has also been replicated in all sub- districts in Pangkep District. Improvement in service units can be seen from the improves quality of services at Sabutung Puskesmas in Pangkep District, as well as the presence of health workers and Puskesmas staff. This has had a positive impact on the increasing number of visits to Puskesmas, as well as outreach services to the surrounding islands. Similarly, there have been improvements in the services at the sub-district level, where changes can be seen in the services and institutional systems. At Liukang Tuppabiring Utara Sub-district office, for example, the management of community services has become more professional. The integrated sub-district services through PATEN in Lombok Utara District has also eased public access to managing various legal identities directly at the sub-district office, without having to go to the district capital. Program support at the village level, ranging from strengthening of regulations on villages to implementation of community participation interventions, has also driven system and institutional improvements. Advocacy for vulnerable communities and marginalised groups has been initiated with a forum for dialogue with people with disabilities (e.g. in Pangkep District). Recommendations for the improvement of the KOMPAK program implementation and focus in the future include: 1 The need for harmonising regulation between central and regional levels, including regulations on delegation of authority from the district to sub-district, Village Government Technical Facilitators, and others. 2 With lessons learned from KOMPAK's support, provincial governments can advocate for non- KOMPAK regions to replicate the good practices that have been undertaken in the assisted regions. The district governments of the assisted regions can also implement these good practices in the sub-districts and villages within their regions, by using the regional budget or other funds (e.g. non-physical Special Allocation Fund). Therefore, KOMPAK needs to document good practices. 3 Strengthening the support for the Village Information System. It can be used as the basis of planning and budgeting, enhance the governance of basic services and economic development. 4 Strengthening the support for governance in the education sector. 5 Strengthening the support for Puskesmas accreditation, including the development of grievance/complaint handling mechanisms to manage feedback from the community about the provision of services. 6 Review of the sub-district budget allocation to support the implementation of the delegation of authority.
