Save the Children in Indonesia is changing for the better. We've begun
to build a national organization that aims to be a strong, local, and
self-sustaining voice for children in Indonesia. To this end, SC
Indonesia has been designated as a “Prospect Member”. As ‘Prospect
Member’ Indonesia has been identified as part of the next way of new
member development, which focuses on strengthening and localizing our
voice for children in strategic middle income countries. Indonesia has
been authorized by member ballot to start fundraising locally as a first
step towards building a financially sustainable local organization.
Future work will also involve developing a strong local governance
structure and building key partnerships with local government, the
private sector, local civil society among others. Success of the pilot
phase will set the Indonesia on a pathway to full membership.
