Contexte

Indonesia is comparatively benefitting less from the potential positive returns to urbanization in terms of growth of Gross Domestic Product and poverty reduction. One main reason for this is the significant infrastructure backlog in Indonesia, resulting in limited access for the people and the economy in cities to reliable public services. Local governments in secondary cities lack the capacity to plan, prepare and finance strategic infrastructure investments in key sectors, and keep pace with the high demand for urban services.

Objectifs

The Trust Fund aims to enable Indonesian cities to conduct evidence-based multisectoral urban planning, and develop appropriate financing solutions for urban investments in key sectors. Technical assistance and capacity building activities develop a suite of policy, advisory, and financing solutions that support sustainable urbanization.

Effets à moyen terme

Additional cities have access to geospatial data for planning and analytics to inform policies and investments. Approaches on area-based development and metropolitan planning are tested and introduced.

Access for local governments to national debt financing and economically viable multi-year infrastructure investments is enhanced.

Flood resilience in cities is strengthened through holistic "Sponge city" investment plans, ready for implementation through financing from the national resilience program.

Urban water utilities have better access to finance for measures to improve their performance ratings and safe drinking water provision.

Upcoming mass transit systems are improved through innovative pilots, access to new financial mechanisms, gender equity concepts and a better vertical coordination in the sector.

Exchange of ideas, experience and best practice on urban development between stakeholders in Indonesia is improved, stimulating innovation and learning process.
