MAMPU RECRUITMENT
DFAT’s
new gender program, Empowering Indonesian Women for Poverty Reduction
(MAMPU), aims to improve the welfare of poor women in Indonesia. Despite
significant reforms,
critical public services do not always reflect the needs of poor women,
or are not accessible by poor women. This situation has been
exacerbated by government decentralization where local governments are
increasingly expected to deliver social services for
the poor despite generally weak capacity to do so.
Analysis
and consultations identified five thematic areas where reform would
make a significant difference for poor women and where there are
promising opportunities to
achieve significant change:
- improving women’s access to government social protection programs
- increasing women’s access to jobs and removing workplace discrimination
- improving conditions for women’s overseas labor migration
- strengthening women’s leadership for better maternal and reproductive health
- strengthening women’s leadership to reduce violence against women.
Identifying
new approaches to increase poor women's access to services is the
central purpose of this program. These solutions could include reform to
local or national
government (and in some cases private sector), policies, regulations
and services.

assistant of MAMPU Program is strengthening the organization of partners
