A Legal and Policy Review of Rural Water Services in Indonesia Literature Review

Description:

The Government of Indonesia has set ambitious targets for access to adequate drinking water and safely managed drinking water as outlined in the National Medium-Term Development Plan (RPJMN) 2020–2024. While there has been progress, significant gaps remain between rural and urban areas.

An important aspect of expanding and sustaining rural water services is the legal basis and institutional framework. This document, produced by USAID REAL-Water, provides a review of Indonesia’s legal and policy framework governing rural water supply in Indonesia, covering key legislation, institutional roles, and important future directions.

As an essential service, the provision of drinking water is a “mandatory-concurrent” affair. This means local governments must prioritize its implementation (city, regency, and province) and meet the minimum coverage targets as determined by the central government.
