The first dan second governance index conducted in 2008 and 2012 received significant appreciation mainly from the government and universities as an oversight monitoring of the governance performance of 33 provinces in Indonesia. Its robust methodology has also been well-acknowledged by the UNDP Oslo Governance Center and has been adapted in the African Countries, such as Senegal. The result of the assessment can be seen in www.kemitraan.or.id/govindex and www.kemitraan.or.id/igi.

This year Kemitraan will run the 3rd assessments in 2013. Different with the two previous assessments, Kemitraan will assess Kabupaten/Kota level to have comprehensive picture where the decentralization occurs.
