51ANNUAL REPORT

Icomp

It is my pleasure to thank the Honourable Dr. Surya Chandra Surapaty, MPH, PhD for

his leadership role towards ICOMP’s pivot to take on the MDGs’ uninished tasks and

the post-2014 sustainable development agenda in the area of sexual and reproductive

health and rights. Our heartfelt thanks to Mr. Hu Hongtao, Commissioner, National

Health and Family Planning Commission, China and Dato’ Dr. Siti Norlasiah Binti Ismail, Director General, Family

Planning and Development Board of Malaysia for their leadership during ICOMP’s crucial transition.

In 2015, ICOMP has sought its members and key partners on the way forward and the SRHR areas to focus

on considering the Sustainable Development Goals adopted by the Head of States in September, 2015. Critical

questions like “what we do best and what are we known for?” and “what the region needs to fulil the commitments

to the SDGs?” have brought us to three (3) key programmes: population dynamics and national planning, youth

leadership training and development and universal access to reproductive health and family planning.

Our key strategies underscore the importance of leadership and management, knowledge building and policy

dialogues and demonstration of best practices as central to the work of ICOMP woven within the broader theme of

capacity development for population dynamics and sustainable development.

As we say it in ICOMP, people is central to SDGs. ICOMP believes that the interlinkages between population and

sustainable development present opportunities for policies and programs to advance SRHR needs of women and

young people guided by human rights principles and gender equity. In our quest to understand the emerging

issues of population dynamics, particularly on ageing and how the countries are addressing ageing through their

policies and programmes, the challenges that the countries has faced with the real (and imminent) ageing popula-

tion overarched the four case studies conducted by ICOMP in 2015 in Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand and Cambodia.

We thank IPPF ESEAOR for jointly conducting the study with us.

Even before the issues and concerns of young people were not as highlighted as it is today, ICOMP blazed the trail

in developing the capacity of young people with support from the European Commission from 2002-2005. ICOMP

continues to have a big stake in the future of young people thru the project “Strengthening Leadership Capacity of

Young People with support from Ford Foundation. The year 2015 saw the training of several young leaders working

with young people’s organizations and providing seed grants to improve Adolescent Youth Sexual and Reproductive

Health and Rights. Indonesia’s commitment to FP2020 to reduce the unmet FP needs of millions of its women has

paved the way for the government of Indonesia thru BKKBN to revitalize FP with a set of key interventions to ensure

that women are able to make a voluntary decision to space or limit the number of children, and make accessible

and available quality FP information and services. The Technical Support Unit ofICOMP, in collaboration with UNFPA

Indonesia and BKKBN, has pilot tested three supply chain management models to reduce stock-outs of FP methods,

developed a national FP strategy that weaves the work of BKKBN, MOH and other stakeholders, pushed for a more

inclusive FP services within the Universal Health Coverage, and supported BKKBN in its ICFP 2016 organizing work.

Our work on SSC has intensiied with ICOMP, together with other organizations, co-hosting the South- South

Cooperation of NGO Capacity Building in Beijing, China with the National Health and Family Planning Commission.

ICOMP also organized two south-south initiatives in partnership with BKKBN and LPPKN on young people, and

towards strengthening the capacity of BKKBN in holding and managing international training.

Let me take this opportunity to express our thanks to the contribution and support of our member countries, develop-

ment partners, SRHR/FP-related national agencies from diferent countries, civil society organizations and our experts.

Programme Focus

Population Dynamics and National Planning

1.1 Enhance the strategic capacity of countries to strengthen policy and programmatic response to inter-active linkages between population dynamics and sustainable development.

1.2 Build a knowledge base of best practices and evidences on what works in countries at different levels of demographic transition.

1.3 Provide support to high level policy dialogues and advocacy among countries and in-country multi-sector task-forces, and inter-agency working groups.

1.4 Improve capacity to generate and make use of timely and high quality demographic data in planning and decision making.

Interlinkages between Population Dynamics and Sustainable Development

FIGURE I. ICOMP’s Framework on Population Dynamics and Sustainable Development Goal.

Population dynamics is intrinsically linked to

the sustainable development goals and, therefore,

assume a central place in the sustainable develop-

ment strategies of the countries and at local level.

While population dynamics themselves constitute

development challenges, they also inluence high

priority development challenges including poverty

reduction, food security, environmental sustain-

ability, and climate change adaptation and mitiga-

tion (UNFPA, Population Dynamics in the Least

Developed Countries: Challenges and Opportunities

for Development and Poverty Reduction, 2011).

However, there is inadequate appreciation of

the linkages between population dynamics and

strategies for sustainable development. Therefore,

enhanced strategic capacity to strengthen policy

and programmatic response to inter-active linkages

between population dynamics and sustainable

development is urgently needed. Strengthening

policy and programs taking into account inter-

linkages between population dynamics and sustain-

able development requires multi-sector and multi-

disciplinary capacity. Such capacity is not likely to

autonomously emerge from sectoral and discipli-

nary bases. ICOMP has made it as its key strategy to

ensure that such capacity is building up amongst the

national agencies and CSOs in addressing popula-

tion dynamics and its efects.

POPULATION DYNAMICS

AND NATIONAL PLANNING

AGEING

The ageing of populations is poised to become the next

global public health challenge. During the next 5 years, for

the irst time in history, people aged 65 years and older in the world will outnumber children aged younger than

5 years (UN Department of Economic and Social Affairs,

Population Division, “World Population Prospects Medium

Variant 2012”). By 2030 it is projected that there will be 1.3

billion older people, making up 16 per cent of the total population, with most living in developing countries.

BACKGROUND

UNDERSTANDING AGEINGFour case studies-one of each from Malaysia, Indonesia,

Thailand and Cambodia, were commissioned by ICOMP with

support from IPPF-ESEOR. These studies collected information

and evidences as basis for in-depth and analytic review of South

East Asia (in part) region and country status of ageing.

A. ENHANCING CAPACITY OF COUNTRIES TO ADDRESS POLICY AND PROGRAMMATIC RESPONSES TO AGEING

8 | International Council on Management of Population Programmes ICOMP

Population ageing is, in a sense, a celebration that

results from positive development like declines in

fertility, as well, as increases in longevity-two trends

that are usually associated with social and economic

development, but has also created a challenge for

countries in terms of economic growth, health care,

and providing personal security for people as they

age. With the ageing population, countries need

to adjust their systems, institutions, pensions, ind

ways for the older population to make contribu-

tion and provide solutions to the challenges they

face. Ageing population, to most of the countries in

Southeast Asia, occurs too when their average per

capita income is still relatively low posing tremen-

dous burden to the elderly and their families and

communities.

In Malaysia the changing population dynamics

has resulted to labor shortage and also eroded the

family support system for the older people. Pension

schemes are not suicient to meet the needs of the

elderly. At a family level, the Indonesian middle-

aged groups (40’s and 50’s) (called “penyet genera-

tion”) are squeezed or penyet with the obligation

of rearing their children and supporting their older

parents, particularly among the poorer population.

In Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand and Cambodia,

older women are more at a disadvantaged given

the higher burden of disease compared to men,

they also tend to live longer, and, the likelihood of

widowhood increased rapidly with advanced age

among women. They are more likely not working

and are not covered with social insurance. Women

have lesser economic opportunities given their

lower education compared to men (for instance

in Thailand, the percentage with no education for

females is twice that of males). While education

is lower among women, in general, access to

education to most of the elderly had been fairly

limited since they were borne at the time of war in

1945 and thereafter (elderly Indonesians were born

just after liberation, and the elderly Cambodians

were battling communist insurgents).

Across these countries great strides have been

achieved with policies in place and mostly pilot/

initial programmes implemented to address issues

of the growing elderly population. However, so

much has to be done in so far as ensuring the socio-

economic development, health care and social

protection systems for the elderly, including labor

participation. The clock is ticking and there’s not

much time to hem and haw on meeting the needs

of the elderly population.

RESPONSES TO AGEING

YOUTH LEADERSHIP TRAINING AND DEVELOPMENT

ICOMP’s STRATEGY

10 | International Council on Management of Population Programmes ICOMP

Today there are about 1.3 billion young people

who consist 18 percent of the total global popula-

tion. Almost 90 percent of these youth live in

developing countries. They are considered assets

for their present and future contributions to the

social, economic, political and cultural aspects

of society. Yet many are denied the resources

and opportunities they need to realize their full

potentials. The negative impacts of this situation on

their overall well-being and ability to fully partici-

pate or contribute to development as productive

and healthy citizens of society are compounded by

the poor state of Adolescent Sexual and Reproduc-

tive Health (ASRH). It is deemed of paramount

importance to address concerns pertaining to

the sexual and reproductive health and rights of

adolescents and young people as this is central to

their empowerment and a key to achieving other

development outcomes for individuals, families,

communities and nations.

The International Council on Management of

Population Programmes (ICOMP) has identiied

Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights (SRHR)

of young people as a priority, and is committed to

employ innovative approaches to ensure and protect

them. One of these approaches is ICOMP’s AY leader-

ship training and development to empower young

people to address and meet their SRHR needs.

YOUTH LEADERSHIP TRAINING AND DEVELOPMENT

Annual Report 2015 | 11

A. STRENGTHENING LEADERSHIP OF YOUNG PEOPLE IN INDONESIA TOWARDS SEXUAL, REPRODUCTIVE HEALTH AND RIGHTSwith support from Ford Foundation

Inequality in various aspects of health

and socio-economic life is felt among

young people across Indonesia.

Not only are the statistics for young

women dying from childbirth is

increasing through the years, their

access to family planning is, likewise,

constrained by law that mainly serves

married couple. Adolescent fertility

rates have increased, and so is HIV

among young people.

Youth leadership has beneits for the individual young person, their

peer group, the organization they

work with and society in general. By

investing in young people’s personal

development, wider health, social,

economic and educational opportuni-

ties could be created especially for those marginalized communities.

BACKGROUND

ICOMP’S YOUTH LEADERSHIP

YOUTH

12 | International Council on Management of Population Programmes ICOMP

Factors like low education, living in rural

communities, ethnicity, disabilities, or being poor

increase the occurence of unplanned pregnancies,

maternal mortality, HIV incidence, and violence

against women and children. People with disabili-

ties, particularly the blind, are extremely vulnerable

to sexual harassment and violence from people they

depend on.

A closer look at the issues of child marriage and

unplanned pregnancies bring us to the grim reality

that the girls who get pregnant are almost likely to

drop out from school, not of their own choice, but

due to the pressure of peers and schools, which

efectively seal their future.

STRENGTHENING LEADERSHIP OF

YOUNG PEOPLE IN INDONESIA TOWARDS

SEXUAL, REPRODUCTIVE HEALTH AND RIGHTS

ICOMP’s Theory of Change articulated that

youth leadership is both a means and an end. As a

means, it is equipping young people with skills to

achieve their dreams, think critically, negotiate risky

situations, and express themselves freely. As an

end, empowerment is seen as the highest level or

goal to be achieved. For young women, they have

to overcome gender inequality through a series

of (empowering) interventions, such as programs

aimed at raising their awareness and teaching them to

resist social norms and harmful practices that curtail

them from enjoying their sexual and reproductive

rights. Young men, as well, are lending their voice

to question the status quo and the gender-based

violence directed to women and girls. It also means

equipping their peers to protect themselves from

HIV/STI and from becoming teenage fathers. ICOMP

improved the leadership capacity of young people

thru a four-phase programme: 1) computer self-

directed learning 2) intensive leadership training 3)

mentoring 4) learning by demonstration by support-

ing the action plans of young leaders to address the

issues of young people.

Youth leadership has wider beneits beyond

the individual young person. Illustrated in the 14

action plans (supported by ICOMP) addressing child

marriage, unplanned pregnancy, HIV and VAWC is

the underlying message that youth leadership also

brings to the peer, the youth organizations and

the larger community. Young volunteers can be

powerful means for engaging other young people.

When young people take the lead “ripple efect” is

more felt. In total, 14 action plans from 14 organi-

zations were supported by ICOMP, which reached

information and education to 5,240 people and

trained 137 peer educators and counsellors.

B. SOUTH-SOUTH COOPERATION ON CAPACITY BUILDING OF CIVIL SOCIETY ORGANIZATIONS

The 6th South-South Cooperation (SSC) on NGO

Capacity Building in Population and Reproductive

Health was held in Beijing, China from October 29

to 30, 2015, hosted by the Government of China

through the National Health and Family Planning

Commission and its organizing partners: the

International Council on Management of Popula-

tion Progammes (ICOMP), International Planned

Parenthood Federation, and China Family Planning

Association. His Excellency Wang Peian, Vice

Minister, National Health and Family Planning

Commission of China opened the SSC together

with Mr. Hu Hongtao, Commissioner, National

Health and Family Planning Commission of China,

Dr. Aurelio Camilo Naraval, Executive Director,

ICOMP, Distinguished heads and representatives of

the China Family Planning Association, Mr. Kouassi

Lucien Kouakou, Regional Director, IPPF Africa

Oice. Twenty ive (25) participants attended the

SSC from Africa and Asia.

Adopting the theme, “Enhancing the role of

NGOs in the Post 2015 Sustainable Development

Agenda”, the SSC comes a month after the Head

of States approved the Sustainable Development

Goals in September, 2015. By tying the thread of the

SDGs with the SSC agenda, the SSC brought to fore

a greater understanding of the Post-2015 Sustain-

able Development Agenda, which also emphasized

on youth participation.

14 | International Council on Management of Population Programmes ICOMP

It is recognized that youth participation is

crucial in the face of the remaining tasks of the

MDGs, particularly in gender, maternal health and

reproductive health goals. It is no surprise that the

question of what to do diferently and better to

address unmet needs of young people permeated

throughout the course of the SSC. Three streams

of thoughts emerged during the SSC: 1) to locate

and link SRHR and population dynamics; 2) the

17 SDGs are very much connected; and 3) SDGs 3

(ensure healthy lives), 5 (achieve gender equality),

including Goals to end poverty (1), hunger (2), and

ensuring inclusive and equitable quality education

(4) are closely related to SRHR.

Highlighted during the SSC were the unmet

needs of young people and their roles in shaping

the post-2015 agenda. Several topics about the

youth examined the means of their efective partic-

ipation in the implementation of SDGs, opportuni-

ties for collaboration in a shared platform for youth

engagement and access to youth friendly informa-

tion and services.

The adolescents and youth are their own

advocates and change agents. Their role is central

for any meaningful engagement to take place and

for programs to succeed. Also taking center stage

during the SSC is the call to improve the capacity of

parents, midwives, teachers and responsible adults

as partners of young people.

Several success stories were shared through-

out the 2-day SSC but what emerged as compel-

ling is the need to improve youth leadership to

enable young people to create and communicate

a shared vision, analyze what is missing to meet

the needs of young people, ind solutions, inspire

and empower other young people towards rights-

based programs. In exercising leadership the

young people are able to provide information and

services to the disadvantaged young people in the

communities, refugee camps, and those who are

victims of disasters and trapped in the wars, AY

with HIV/AIDS, LGBT, and those with disabilities.

UNIVERSAL ACCESS TO REPRODUCTIVE HEALTH AND FAMILY PLANNING

A. TECHNICAL SUPPORT UNIT A JOINT PROJECT WITH UNFPA INDONESIA, ICOMP AND BKKBN

ICOMP’s STRATEGY

16 | International Council on Management of Population Programmes ICOMP

This feat was achieved within three decades after

the establishment of the National Family Planning

and Coordinating Board (Berencana Kependudukan

dan Keluarga Berencana Nasional or BKKBN) in 1971

and the full support provided by the Central Govern-

ment and various stakeholders.

However, with government decentralization

and further democratization that started in 1998,

certainly a positive change for local autonomy and

empowerment at the district level and other local

governments, the FP programme’s performance hit

a snag and began to plateau as a large amount of

the authority and responsibilities of BKKBN, and

that of other central government ministries, also

had to be devolved. This has tested the adaptive

capacities and skills of BKKBN, other central

government ministries and local governments as

well, all of which needed to politically and socially

reinvent themselves in order to continue to fulil

the wishes of many Indonesian citizens to space

or limit pregnancies and realize socio-economic

development at the household level. At stake also

is the fulilment of the country’s global commit-

ments to the ICPD (1994), the MDGs (2000), and

the FP2020 Summit (2012).

THE TECHNICAL SUPPORT UNIT

In 2014, UNFPA Indonesia and the International

Council on Management of Population Programmes

(ICOMP) forged a partnership to provide technical

assistance and support to BKKBN in its serious and

dedicated efort to re-invigorate Indonesia’s family

planning programme, thus born was the Technical

Support Unit (TSU) for BKKBN.

For a period of eleven (11) months, the TSU has

already achieved meaningful, though still on-going,

contributions to the goals of BKKBN and to other

FP strengthening initiatives of the government and

other relevant stakeholders in the country. The TSU

has the following objectives:

1. Provide high level strategic and technical

support /technical assistance and capacity

development services through national and

international experts, to:

• accelerate revitalization of the national FP

programme, within the context of the national

family planning strategy and UNFPA’s priorities

on FP within its 8th Country Programme Cycle

(2011-2015)

• fulill BKKBN’s FP2020 commitments

2. Ensure concrete progress towards deining

and fulilling BKKBN’s long term technical and

strategic needs through the establishment of a

technical advisory mechanism; and

3. Provide communications and strategic support

to the FP2020 Country Committee.

TECHNICAL SUPPORT UNITA JOINT PROJECT WITH

UNFPA INDONESIA, ICOMP AND BKKBN

Indonesia, the fourth most populous country in the world, has long been held as a global

model for the successful implementation of its family planning (FP) programme. Indeed, from

the ‘70s to the close of the millennium, Indonesia was able to bring down its total fertility rate

(TFR) of 5.6 live births per woman to 2.3. The contraceptive prevalence rate (CPR) rose dramat-

ically from below 10 per cent to over 57 per cent.

IMPROVING SUPPLY CHAIN MANAGEMENT (SCM) OF CONTRACEPTIVE COMMODITY IN INDONESIA

In June 2013, an assessment of Indonesia’s

contraceptive SCM highlighted several challeng-

es within the SCM system particularly in the

areas of quality assurance, forecasting, procure-

ment, logistics information management system,

storage, inventory management, distribution and

transportation, and human resource for SCM. In

order to strengthen the SCM of FP commodities at

the central, provincial, and district level, three SCM

models were developed for testing:

o Model A aims to strengthen BKKBN’s current

capacity and improving existing SCM activi-

ties at all level including national, provincial

and district level.

o Model B aims to strengthen BKKBN’s

capacity and improving existing SCM activi-

ties in close coordination with the District

Health Oice/MOH to store and distribute

FP commodities to government puskesmas

and health facilities network at district

level and also for private one using Family

Planning Field Oicer (PLKB) or district’s

BKKBN staf.

o Model C involves a third party logistics (3PL)

that is relecting new innovation to support

and strengthen BKKBN’s supply chain

activities at district and sub-district level by

distributing contraceptive drugs to both of

government and private health facilities.

As an efort to support this pilot project,

the TSU has recruited a consultant to provide

technical assistance for the implementation of

these models in 2 provinces, East Java and East

Nusa Tenggara, and 9 districts.

Each model was tested in the field for 6

months in East Java province and 3 months in

East Nusa Tenggara province by using quasi

experiment methods. Control commodities

were likewise selected.

Following some delays in the implementa-

tion of these models, a midterm evaluation

compared to the baseline data has shown the

need to continue with the pilot testing to have

a bigger window for observation. Previously,

the assumption is that the use of minimum/

maximum (min/max) methods of inventory

management control can lower the stock out

status of the medicines, although the result

of mid-term evaluation shows that timely

delivery has large efect in lowering stock out

of medicine. Based on the midterm evalua-

tion, working with PT POST (model C) seems

to work well in far and isolated areas. Model B

(jointly with the District Health) shows promise

in lowering stock outs. Model A can efectively

reduce stock out status if the distributor send

the medicines based on min/max calculation or

if the distributor send larger amount, relecting

the min/max concept.

18 | International Council on Management of Population Programmes ICOMP

Indonesia hosted the fourth International

Conference on Family Planning (ICFP) from

25-28th January 2016 in Nusa Dua, Bali. Over

the past few decades, Indonesia has made signii-

cant progress in reducing its Total Fertility Rate

(TFR) and increasing its Contraceptive Prevalence

Rate (CPR). The success of Indonesia’s family

planning program, including the experiences,

lessons learned, and challenges were reasons in

choosing Indonesia to host the 4th ICFP so these

could be shared with the broader international

community. In this regard, BKKBN in collaboration

with the TSU agreed to promote ICFP and ensure

the adequate representation of Indonesians and

their research indings at this conference. More

speciically, mentoring support were provided to

Indonesians who submitted an abstract to the

conference. Through this mentoring program,

abstracts were carefully reviewed and mentors

provided written comments and suggestions for

further improvement of the abstracts. Selected

participants were invited to participate in a

two-day Scientiic Writing workshop to further

improve discussions of their study design,

methodology, and the overall presentation of the

abstract. The goal of this workshop was to ensure

the submission of high quality abstracts to the

ICFP 2015. Twenty-one (21) Indonesian abstracts

were selected for oral presentation and forty-ive

(45) for poster presentation.

A compendium of FP studies in Indonesia were

also collected for use as reference by program

managers, scholars, policy makers, CSOs and FP

advocates.

UNIVERSAL HEALTH COVERAGE

In January 2014, Indonesia launched its National

Health Insurance Programme (or JKN) applying the

principles of social health insurance and reinforc-

ing the existing public health insurance scheme

in Indonesia such as ASKES and ASABRI (Health

Insurance for civil-servants and military staf),

JAMKESMAS-Jampersal, and Jamsostek (Health

Insurance for formal workers). Several milestones

were achieved in making FP as accessible and

afordable to many Indonesians and particularly

those who choose to space or limit the number

of children. However, issues and challenges were

also identiied that potentially diminish its impact.

Key among these challenges include the accredi-

tation of the health service providers, the capacity

of the health stafs, and the non-inclusion of

(interval) tubectomy in the package.

TSU technical assistance is intended to maximize

FP as part of the UHC package and address key

concerns raised in the study entitled, “Study of

Family Planning Program Implementation in the

Era of Indonesia National Health Insurance, 2014”.

TSU provided technical assistance to realize

the recommendations of the study, and ensure

how best these can be addressed, including the

challenges identiied by the health facilities in

the implementation of FP beneits in JKN. It also

developed guidelines in maximizing FP beneits

within UHC for use by BKKBN, MoH and health

facilities.

One of the successful advocacies of TSU is the

inclusion of the interval IUD in the upcoming

revised FP beneits within the Universal Health

Coverage program. There are also calls to unify

the accreditation of FP health service delivery

points to meet standards.

OPERATIONALIZATION OF THE NATIONAL FAMILY PLANNING FRAMEWORK

At the London Summit on Family Planning in

July 2012, Indonesia, together with 69 countries

around the world, committed to providing an

additional 120 million women in the world’s

poorest countries with access to voluntary

family planning by the year 2020. As a follow-up

to the commitments made, the Government

of Indonesia, through BKKBN, and in close

partnership with co-focal points, UNFPA and

USAID, has convened regular meetings of the

FP2020 Indonesia Country Committee. Since

December 2012, there have been ten FP2020

meetings that have been hosted by a variety

of partners. The growing size of each meeting

and the diversity of partners in attendance

demonstrate the strong commitment of the

Indonesian community to revitalize family

planning in Indonesia. In order to sustain these

commitments, the TSU is committed to helping

BKKBN achieve the FP2020 commitments and

serve as the secretariat for the FP2020 Country

Committee for Indonesia.

Following the Summit on Family Planning in

July 2012, two sub-committees in Indonesia were

formed within the FP2020 Indonesia Country

Committee structure: the Family Planning (FP)

Strategy working group and the Rights and

Empowerment working group. These working

groups aimed at developing a national FP strategy

framework that is rights-based and takes into

account inter-sectoral priorities and activities. Most

recently in March 2015, preliminary results of the

strategy were shared with the FP2020 Indonesia

Country Committee. Moving forward in the

operationalization of the FP Strategy, it is crucial to

engage BAPPENAS (the Ministerial Coordinator for

Human Development and Culture) and coordinate

closely with the Ministry of Home Afairs, Ministry

of Health, and BKKBN. The TSU has recruited a

consultant who provided the technical assistance

to the MOH and BKKBN in order to ensure that

the FP Strategy is incorporated into their existing

annual work plan and budget. In selected provinces,

technical assistance was also provided in order to

ensure the proper actualization of the strategy in

their work plan at the local level.

A. SOUTH-SOUTH COLLABORATION ON CAPACITY BUILDING: INTERNATIONAL TRAINING MANAGEMENT

2nd–5th of December 2015, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

The South-South Collaboration on Capacity

Building: International Training Management

was held at Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia from 2 –

5th of December 2015. The 4-day workshop

was aimed at strengthening the international

training courses of the National Population and

Family Planning Board (BKKBN) Indonesia and

the National Population and Family Development

Board (LPPKN) Malaysia. A total of 27 participants

from BKKBN and LPPKN attended the training

workshop. Through the exchange of experiences

and good practices among the participants, they

were able to improve their curricula from needs

assessment, curriculum and instructional design,

selection and use of various teaching-learning

strategies, achievement and training evaluation.

At the end of the training workshop, the partici-

pants were able to develop a draft proposal on

fee-based international training.

Prior to the workshop, a half-day study exchange

was organized with the Academic Development

Centre (ADeC), University of Malaya (UM) to learn

about UM’s capacity development programme,

its training management system and training

facilities. Dr. Aishah Abu Bakar, Director of ADeC,

UM welcomed the participants and provided an

overview on ADeC’s organizational structure,

functions and programmes. The overview was

followed by a sharing session and discussion on

training needs analysis, design of the training

curriculum, formative assessment and evaluation

and training management.

The International Training Management

was started on the 3rd of December 2015. The

workshop was conducted and facilitated by Dr.

Aurelio Camilo Naraval from ICOMP and Dean

Nemuel S. Fajutagana from the National Teacher

Training Center for the Health Professions,

University of the Philippines, Manila. During the

training, all participants were introduced to the

concept of instructional design framework and

matrix including Intended Learning Outcomes,

Content, Time, Teaching Learning Strategies,

Resources and Assessment. At the end of each

session, participants were required to conduct a

training needs analysis and prepare an instruc-

tional design framework and matrix for their

target audience. Four draft training proposal

Annual Report 2015 | 23

and instructional design matrix were developed.

These proposals included a Training Programme

on Strategic Partnership with Muslim Religious

Leaders in Family Planning, Comprehensive Right

Based Family Planning Training Programme for

Medical Personnel, Training on Parenting Skills at

Work and Strengthening Adolescent and Youth

(AY) Organizational Capacity towards Improved

AY Sexual, Reproductive Health and Rights (SRHR).

In addition to the design and development of

training programme, participants were also exposed

to the design of assessment and evaluation plan

by using Kirkpatrick’s model. Highlighted in the

training the need to have an “evaluation plan” for

the curriculum or training programme to determine

whether the objectives of the training programmes

were met, whether any changes have taken place

and the value of the feedback it provided.

Taking forward the practical experiences of

National Population and Family Development

Board (LPPKN) and the International Council on

Management of Population Programmes (ICOMP)

on Adolescent Youth and Reproductive Health

(AYRH), a south-south meeting was held between

the two organizations and National Family Planning

Coordinating Board (BKKBN). Seven (7) key manage-

ment stafs including the Head of BKKBN, Dr. Surya

Chandra Surapaty, M.D., M.P.H., Ph.D., came to Kuala

Lumpur, Malaysia.

To set the tone of the south-south collaboration

on AY RH, a meeting was held on 15th October, 2015

between the heads of BKKBN (Dr. Surya Chandra

Surapaty, M.D., M.P.H., Ph.D.), LPPKN (Dato’ Dr. Siti

Norlasiah ), and ICOMP (Dr. Aurelio Camilo Naraval)

at ICOMP to discuss about ICOMP’s directions,

including exchange of experiences regarding their

respective AY Programmes:

ICOMP and ProPride’s (an Ethiopian NGO)

joint project in building the capacity of

health managers and providers from eight

health centres of two subcities to integrate

family planning (FP) into their Prevention-

of-mother-to-child transmission (PMTCT)

programmes. The training also included the

efective management of FP commodities.

These activities have resulted in the improved

uptake of FP especially long-acting methods

among HIV-positive women. The trained

health centres sustained their FP and PMTCT

integrative services beyond the project life and

has generated positive feedback from their

clients and other stakeholders. Scaling up the

training to other health facilities would need

renewed partnership and support from the

national health ministry, local health bureaus

and international development partners.

B. SOUTH-SOUTH COOPERATION ON ADOLESCENT AND YOUTH PROGRAMMES OF THE NATIONAL FAMILY PLANNING COORDINATING BOARD (BKKBN), NATIONAL POPULATION AND FAMILY DEVELOPMENT BOARD (LPPKN) AND ICOMP

KAFE@TEEN is an Adolescent Centre

that aims to empower teenagers and

young people aged 13 to 24 years through

raising awareness and prevention of high

risk and most at risk behavior through its

multi-approach services that encompasses

reproductive health and social education,

personal counselling, weightmanagement,

skin problems and character building. The

programme was launched in November

2005 with programme services delivered via

three methods; Pusat Remaja kafe@TEEN

and a Facebook Fan Page which provides

information on activities as well as tips to

live a healthy lifestyle. Table 1 below lists the

location of Pusat Remaja kafe@TEEN.

GENRE (GENERASI BERANCANA).

BKKBN (National Family Planning and

Coordinating Board) launched its Generasi

Berencana (GenRe) program in 2009 with

the aim of helping the youth to plan for their

future family life. The program addresses the

issues afecting the young people (ages 10-24)

such as HIV/AIDS, unplanned pregnancy/early

marriage and drug use. At the core of GenRe’s

campaign is to strengthen the skills of young

people to delay sex, prevent HIV and avoid

drugs by improving their negotiation skills

to say “no”. To do this, the program reaches

out to schools and universities by developing

peer educators through Pusat Informasi dan

Kaunselling – Mahasiswa (PIK-M) or Informa-

tion and Counselling Center for the Students.

A vetting process of committed students and

teachers presaged the training to become

peer-counselor and peer-teacher, respec-

tively. Formal review of the program indicated

the success in socialization / promotion of

awareness of the three major issues of HIV/

AIDS, unplanned pregnancies and drug use.

PUBLICATION

Despite long term engagement in family

planning and reproductive health, most

South Asian countries still face the same

pressing issues and concerns. Levels

of fertility and acceptance of family planning may

vary among countries, but one thing is common: an

increasing recognition amongst governments and

donors of a continuing need for enhanced family

planning eforts.

It is in this context that the International Council

on Management of Population Programmes

(ICOMP) had undertaken advocacy initiatives to

build a favourable environment for enhancing

engagement of political leaders, especially parlia-

mentarians and civil society leaders, to connect

and unite them in vision and mission through facts

pertaining to the dynamics of and linkages between

population and development interventions. With

support from the David and Lucile Packard Founda-

tion, ICOMP in close collaboration with the Central

Department of Population Studies, Tribhuvan

University (CDPS/TU), Nepal and technical support

from the Center for Research on Environment,

Health and Population Activities (CREHPA), Nepal,

organized the “South Asia Regional Consulta-

tion of Parliamentarians and Civil Society Leaders

towards ICPD Beyond 2014” in Kathmandu, Nepal,

on 26-27th of August 2013.
