In 2024, the preparation of Indonesia's medium-term development planning documents presented a critical opportunity to integrate gender perspectives at both national and sub-national levels. At the national level, this momentum was strategically utilized to influence the integration of gender considerations into the National Medium-Term Development Plan (RPJMN) 2025-2029 and the Strategic Plans of Government Ministries and Institutions. UN Women played a pivotal role in this process by providing technical assistance to ensure that gender mainstreaming (PUG) was revitalized and effectively embedded in these key policy documents by developing a technocratic document on GEWE issues that set a robust foundation for advancing gender equality and women’s empowerment in Indonesia.

With UN Women's support, Women Living with HIV Association (IPPI) developed an app called "Delila" that facilitate women living of HIV (WLHIV) who want to report violence that they experience and reach out to IPPI for support and assistance before they decide to access service providers. UN Women also developed IPPI's capacity as intermediary organization that can take up the role to provide support before accessing service providers, such as paralegal and counselling. This contributes to SDG 3 (Health and Wellbeing), and also SDG 5 (gender equality and empowerment of women).

During this reporting period, this outcome was achieved. The Government of Indonesia, led by the Ministry of Planning, the Ministry of Finance, and the Ministry of Women's Empowerment and Child Protection has been revitalizing the institutional mechanism on gender mainstreaming. This effort by the government focuses on a better planning, implementation, monitoring and tracking the public/state budget for gender equality commitment. This is a fruition of a 2-year process of starting the discussion at the Ministry of Planning in 2021, with the plan to evaluate the implementation of gender responsive budgeting and proposing for a new presidential regulation to revitalize the previous regulation issued in 2000. However, due to the upcoming election, the draft presidential regulation to support this gender-mainstreaming effort will be discussed in 2024. UN Women has been supporting the government by providing technical assistance in integrating gender-mainstreaming strategies in the technocratic document for the newly developed Medium and Long-Term National Development Plan. In addition, UN Women has also supported in improving government capacity on Gender Responsive Budgeting (GRB) training to gain commitment from the government in allocating as well as monitoring or tracking budget expenditure for gender-responsive programmes within the line ministries.
