After the passing of the law on science and technology (UU Sisnas Iptek), Indonesia’s research and innovation(R&I) ecosystem is at a critical juncture where there will be significant restructuring and reframing of the role of R&I in national development. This includes the need to map various existing R&I-related plans in different ministries to then develop a national R&I plan which could serve as an umbrella reference across ministries and non-government organisations. Additionally, UU Sisnas Iptek also provides an avenue for key reforms to better incentivize R&I activities and improve research performance. Within this changing landscape, KSI needs to position the program’s catalytic role to influence the most strategic elements of the R&I ecosystem together with actors in the ecosystem.
This support is intended to specifically address the need to influence the deliberation of key reforms in an implementing regulation of UU Sisnas Iptek on:
(1) Science and technology role as a basis for planning, Rencana Induk Pemajuan Iptek, and science-basedpolicy under the law on science, technology, and innovation plan (RPP Perencanaan Iptek dan Inovasi); and (2) Measurement of technological readiness, invention and innovation under the law on science and technology implementation (RPP Penyelenggaraan Iptek). This support takes the form of issue mapping, positioning and further codification into theimplementing regulation and its corresponding outreach and advocacy materials.
