Program that has been done in
Indonesia
• PAMSIMAS(Penyediaan Air Minum dan Sanitasi Berbasis Masyarakat)
The PAMSIMAS program is one of the Government's programs in
water supply and sanitation for rural communities through a
community-based approach. Since the PAMSIMAS program began in
2008 until the end of 2015, it has shown a positive impact for the
villagers of PAMSIMAS scattered around 12,000 villages in 233
districts / cities in 32 provinces in Indonesia, except for DKI Jakarta. As a
stimulant program with a community-based approach, the PAMSIMAS
Program places the community as the main actors and is responsible
for the implementation of the activities.
• PAMSIMAS seeks to increase the use of water and sanitation facilities,
and improve hygiene behaviors, by expanding and mainstreaming the
community-driven approach. The project provides grants directly to
communities for local water and sanitation infrastructure and
technical assistance to enhance the role of the community with
capacity building planning, procurement and management, including
community monitoring with a web-based complaint handling
mechanism. Advisory services and training is also provided for
communities to improve their sanitation and hygiene behavior and
practices.
