Indonesia
Indonesia is the largest implementer of Global Fund grants in South-East Asia. Since 2004, the Global Fund has disbursed over US$ 1.1 billion to Indonesia for responses to HIV, TB and malaria, and strengthening systems for health. In addition, Indonesia is part of the following Global Fund multi-country grants: Multicountry Asia IHAA, Multicountry East Asia and Pacific APN, Multicountry East Asia and Pacific HIVOS, Multicountry South-Eastern Asia AFAO.
As part of the operationalisation of Strategic Objective 3 of the Global Fund Strategy 2017 – 2022, the Breaking Down Barriers Initiative was initiated in 2020 and which Indonesia participated in. As part of this initiative, a Baseline Assessment was conducted in 2018 and a mid-term assessment was commissioned by the Global Fund to present findings in Indonesia in 2021.
Through Debt2Health (an innovative financing mechanism that is designed to increase domestic financing in health by converting debt repayments into lifesaving investments in public programmes, Indonesia has received ‘debt swaps’ from donors through the Global Fund. Most recently in April 2021, Germany, Indonesia and the Global Fund signed a new agreement that would increase support to TB programmes in Indonesia through converting € 50 million of debt owed by Indonesia to Germany into domestic TB programmes.
The Republic of Indonesia has an important leading role on the international stage as the President of the G20 this year, and will host the 18th G20 Summit on 15th & 16th November 2022 in Bali, and has identified its priority issues for the G20 as global health architecture, digital transformation, and sustainable energy transition. In addition, Indonesia will be the Chair of ASEAN in 2023.
In 2019, Indonesia established the Indonesian Agency for International Development (Indonesia AID) of managing an international development cooperation fund in the context of providing grants to foreign governments/foreign institutions and strengthened Indonesia’s position in international development cooperation, especially as a donor.
