Employment and Skills Strategies in Indonesia
This report comes at a time when policy makers are challenged by the COVID-19 crisis
that is generating a profound reflection on economic and social well-being. Before
COVID-19 hit, Indonesia had experienced remarkable economic growth, making substantial
progress in poverty reduction and gains in employment. However, there are large differences
in outcomes across Indonesian provinces, which often reflect the quality of local
infrastructure, services, education, and jobs. This joint Asian Development Bank (ADB)
and Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) study sheds light
on challenges and opportunities to promote employment and skills outcomes at the local
level in Indonesia. The analysis presented in this OECD/ADB report shows the importance
of strengthening local institutions managing and delivering employment and skills
policies.
