Comprehensive, Transformative, Inclusive, and Gender Responsive Social Protection: The Experience of Mampu Partners and Its Relevance to the COVID-19 Context

This paper explores the experience of women’s civil society organisations involved in the Australia-Indonesia Partnership for Gender Equality and Women’s Empowerment, known as MAMPU, in increasing access to social protection, and what this means for the reach of such programs in Indonesia. The experience is particularly relevant in the new context. Women’s civil society organisations that have engaged in social protection policy, monitoring, and information provision are poised to play a significant and useful role in the rapid expansion of social protection throughout Indonesia.
