MAMPU - Access to Employment and Decent Work for Women Project (Phase II)

The ILO/MAMPU Project – Access to Employment and Decent Work for Women is part of the Programme Empowering Indonesian Women for Poverty Reduction (Maju Perempuan Indonesia untuk Penanggulangan Kemiskinan – MAMPU), initiated by the Government of Indonesia’s Ministry of National Development Planning (Bappenas) and the Government of Australia’s Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT) to improve women’s welfare in Indonesia. The ILO has been part of the MAMPU Programme since 2012 with a view to increase women’s access to jobs and remove discrimination against women in workplaces. The second phase of the Project began in February 2014 for a duration of 29 months up to June 2016, with initial funding support up to February 2015, which has been extended to 30 June 2015 with additional funding support for a survey by the National Statistics Office (BPS) on homeworkers. In mid-April 2015, the ILO was informed by Cowater that the ILO would be engaged in the MAMPU Programme with limited scope. Following the decision by Cowater and Australia, the scope of the Project has been re-designed in May 2015 in close consultation with Cowater to ensure appropriate completion of the key on-going activities. This project document presents the planned activities and outputs for July - December 2015 which build on the progress and achievements made since the start of the ILO contribution to the MAMPU programme. The Project will continue to work in close collaboration with the Ministry of Manpower, APINDO, Trade Unions, as well as selected Civil Society Organizations (CSOs) engaged in the ILO/MAMPU Project up to June 2015. The Project will also continue to maintain coordination with relevant partners and stakeholders such as the MAMPU Programme partners to create synergy. Gender equality, non-discrimination and disability remain as cross-cutting issues to be mainstreamed throughout project implementation.
