HIV COOPERATION PROGRAM FOR INDONESIA

(HCPI)
Short Term Adviser – Papua Politics Expert

The HIV Cooperation Program for Indonesia (HCPI) is funded

through the Australian Government, Department of Foreign

Affairs and Trade (DFAT). This is an AUD72million project and

is DFAT’s principle HIV prevention program in Indonesia. The

project’s purpose is to help Indonesia plan, develop and

implement an effective response to HIV.

HCPI is entering its final year of implementation, with program

activities expected to be completed by October 2015. In

response to this there are reviews being undertaken by DFAT

regarding programs that may follow-on from HCPI. One activity

as part of these reviews is a Political Economy Analysis to

better understand the nature of the public provision and how

Government of Indonesia (GoI) might continue to address the

health challenges in Tanah Papua. This study can help to inform

where assistance can be most effective.

HCPI proposes to hire Short-Term Advisers to undertake this

review with a particular emphasis on healthcare provision (and

can thus prioritise analysis of health services) it is also

intended to serve as an analysis of public service provision in

general.
