Preface
Y
ayasan Sayangi Tunas Cilik (YSTC) is a national foundation that
partners with Save the Children International (SCI) in
delivering programs and advocating for children's rights,
particularly to and for the most deprived and marginalized children
in Indonesia. Save the Children International has been operating in
Indonesia since 1976 and YSTC established in 2014 with the aim of
growing an independent, self-sustaining and self-advocating child
rights and child focused organization.
As a national foundation,YSTC is ideally positioned to better serve
the needs of Indonesia's 86 million children by raising funds locally,
recruiting national staff, and providing a stronger local network for
programming and advocacy of child rights. Together, in partnership,
we work to share expertise and best practices, generate evidence
based on our program interventions, provide policy advice to
relevant government bodies, coordinate activities, and pool our
resources, which enables us to extend our reach and impact for
children.
We work in both development and humanitarian settings and apply
our Theory of Change model to ensure scale-up and long term
sustainability within the communities that we serve. Our programs
span a set of diverse thematic sectors, from Health and Nutrition,
Child Protection, Education, Child Poverty, Child Rights
Governance, and Disaster Risk Reduction and Emergency Response,
each with their own specific strategic objectives.
Yayasan Sayangi Tunas Cilik has engaged on Sustainable
Development Goals negotiation in Indonesia since 2013 by
strategically pushing forward child rights mainstreaming into the
SDGs implementation.YSTC has been appointed as a member of
the SDGs coordination team, specifically on SDGs 4 (education).
In 2017, we facilitated more than 60 young people in Jakarta and
Yogyakarta to raise their voices by giving inputs towards Indonesia
SDGs Voluntary National Review (VNR).YSTC's contribution was
Selina Patta Sumbung
mentioned on the official report to the United Nation-High Level
Political Forum in New York. This initiative has led to the
development of a platform for youth engagement on SDGs in
Indonesia.
During 2017,YSTC was present in 11 provinces, 40 districts, 316
sub-districts, and 857 villages in Indonesia. We have 13 sub-offices
divided into 3 area/regional offices with its national office in Jakarta,
and have a staff complement of 441. In total, our programs have
directly benefited 147,580 children and 82,886 adults, and have
indirectly benefited 832,915 people in their communities. Our
working areas in 2017 include Aceh, West Sumatera, Lampung,
Greater Jakarta, West Java,Yogyakarta, East Java, Bali, West Nusa
Tenggara, East Nusa Tenggara, and South Sulawesi.
In our work we collaborate closely with the Government of
Indonesia at the national and sub-national level. Close partnerships
have been cultivated and will be continued with the Ministry of
Social Affairs, Ministry of Education and Culture, Ministry of Woman
Empowerment and Child Protection, Ministry of Health, Ministry of
Manpower, the National Disaster Mitigation Bureau and other
relevant Ministries or Government bodies. Apart from partnerships
with the government, we also work in close collaboration with
various UN and multilateral agencies, non-profit organizations, civil
society organizations, the private sector, universities/academia and
many other organizations.
I am pleased to publish our Country Annual Report for 2017 and
wish to thank the Government of Indonesia and all of our partners,
donors, stakeholders, and the children and communities that we
serve for a fantastic and positive year for the fulfillment of children's

 Our Story

O
ur story begins in 1919, when Eglantyne Jebb launches the
Save the Children Fund in London in the wake of World War I,
which soon becomes the first global movement for children.
An outspoken champion for children, Jebb drafts the historic
Declaration of the Rights of the Child, adopted by the League of
Nations in 1924. The drafts then adopted by UN in 1989 as the UN
Convention on the Rights of the Child. It becomes the most
universally accepted human rights treaty in history.
In Indonesia, Save the Children has been operating since 1976. In
2014,Yayasan Sayangi Tunas Cilik emerged as a local entity from Save
the Children in Indonesia. It has been registered as a local entity
through the Decree of the Indonesia Minister of Law and Human
Right.
Yayasan Sayangi Tunas Cilik is a part of Save the Children global
movement working in 120 countries across 6 continents.

Our Promise
We do whatever it takes to save children.

 Our Programs and Beneficiaries in 2017
In 2017,Yayasan Sayangi Tunas Cilik implemented six thematic programs in Indonesia.

Health and Child Protection Education

Nutrition
In Indonesia, one baby dies every
seven minutes due to preventable
and treatable causes. That's why we
are committed to providing robust
health and nutrition programs to
improve health and nutrition of
mothers, newborn babies and
children, with special attention to
poor and vulnerable communities.
This is including their quality of care;
improving neonatal and children
nutrition absorption; improving
referral systems for maternal and
new-born in emergencies; and
integrating our approach at local and
national level.
We commit to protect children from
abuse, neglect, exploitation, and
violence. Our programs focus on the
most vulnerable children while
aiming for the safety and well-being
of all children. Working with
governments, international
organizations, and local community
partners, we strive to create lasting
change with improvements in policy
and services that protect children
whether in a natural disaster, or
development setting. Through Family
First Program, we are ensuring
appropriate care for children and de-
institutionalization with three main
components; prevention, direct
response, and legal reform
implemented at local and national
level.
Education is the road that children
follow to reach their full potential in
life.Yet many children in need do not
get a quality education where they
can learn and develop. We focus on
increasing access for deprived
children, in particular children with
disabilities, and increasing the quality
of inclusive education. We also
support education programs for
children in the school, family, and
communities to create supportive
environment for children to learn
and relevant learning outcomes.

Child Poverty
Children are more likely to be
healthy and educated when their
families are not worried about
where the next meal will come from.
To prevent children from
malnutrition and improve their well-
being, nutritious food and education
must be available to families. To help
parents provide for their children's
basic needs, our Livelihoods
programs focus on improving the
farming practices and finances of
families in need. We also give youth
the skills to succeed by teaching
them how to build skills, networks,
and self-esteem they need to
make the transition to a good quality
of livelihood.
Humanitarian
Response
No one knows when the next
earthquake, flood, or tsunami will
strike. But we do know children are
severely affected by natural disasters.
That's why we are prepared to help
protect vulnerable boys and girls
during disasters and their aftermath
through provision of child
protection, education, and health
service in emergencies. Besides
provide disaster relief and
emergency response background, we
also have pioneered child-centered
Disaster Risk Reduction to prevent
and ease the suffering of children in
the aftermath.
Child Rights
Governance
In Child Rights Governance, we
focus on ensuring the fulfillment of
children's rights through policy and
commitment from all sectors
including government, industries, and
society. We also focus on increasing
accountability on the fulfillment of
the rights of the poor and vulnerable
children through the implementation
of the World Business Principles and
Rights of the Child in the corporate
sector.

Roselina Thanks
All of You
Once a month, Roselina brought her daughter,
Natalia, to an Integrated Health Service (Posyandu)
supported by Yayasan Sayangi Tunas Cilik in West
Sumba. Posyandu monitors the health progress of
children aged 0-5, provides parents with practical
advice about the development of their children, and
educates them on health food choices.

“We are very pleased with the program. It is

important to track growth, and it has provided me
with lessons about caring for my children. Many
people here can’t read or write and so we learn
from the lessons," says Roselina, the mother of
three.

 Basic Overview and Problem Statement

T
he under-five mortality rate fell from 97 per 1000 live births in
1990 achieve MDG target of 28 per 1000 live births. The
mortality reduction rates are currently lower than the global
average, and way below what is needed to achieve Sustainable
Development Goal (SDG) target.
Newborn still die due to preventable causes, and currently
contributes to half of all children under five deaths.
From life cycle perspective, this also result of poor care pre-
pregnancy. Women are anaemic and underweight even before
becoming pregnant, and these unresolved deficiencies contribute to
sub-optimal development of babies in utero and low birth weight
newborns.
Childhood pneumonia is the leading killer of children
under five.
Case Fatality Rate is 0.11%, while early detection coverage is
65,27%, way below 100% Millennium Development Goal (MDG)
target. Risk factors include poor child care practice, including
indoor air pollution and high household density, especially in slum
urban areas which are growing in the country.
Indonesia has relatively good coverage of the maternal and child
health program, but there are missed opportunities along the
continuum of care. Geographical disparities exist, quality of care and
referral system within the complex health system remains a
challenge.
To sum, children die due to preventable causes because services are
provided piece-meal and those most at risk are not being reached.
Survival breakthrough in Indonesia depends on a substantial
reduction in neonatal mortality, as well as addressing childhood
pneumonia as the main killer.
Along with these, equally important is addressing under-nutrition as
the underlying condition, increase focus to pre-pregnancy period,
and anticipating new emerging issue for growing urban children
such as road accident that lead to child injury.

newborn death is due to preventable causes.

Our Goal
To contribute to reduction of children under five deaths in Indonesia.

Our Strategic Objectives

To increase coverage of life-saving intervention for newborn, we will continue to improve

the effectiveness of referral system model, domestic resources mobilization, and
strengthened local policy around implementation and accountability of Indonesia Newborn

Strategic Objective II
As one of beacon country on global childhood pneumonia initiative of Save the Children

Strategic Objective III eventually reach out to out-of-school adolescent.

The issues also include hygiene physical activity and nutrition practices aligned with
Adolescent Health Gerakan Masyarakat untuk Hidup Sehat (GERMAS), sexual and reproductive health and
rights, rights to road safety and be responsible on the road, and knowledge and awareness
on gender based violence.

Our Ambition
Our ambition is to be the leading and championing the Indonesia Newborn Action Plan (INAP) with strengthened focus on caring for small
and sick newborn, pre-pregnancy period, and embrace local solution and local evidence for newborn. We aim to raise concerns on
addressing childhood pneumonia and its associated factors which include poor nutrition. Both are keys for survival breakthrough for
Indonesian children.

Along the way, we will focus on reaching out to the most deprived children and families in both urban and rural contexts. This include
efforts in anticipating new emerging issues, such as road safety for children in growing urban population that lead to increasing child injury.

Our Approaches
Our delivery approach for the country strategy is centralized in two pillars:

1. Strengthening the health system. YSTC collaborates with governments to strengthen their health system to deliver timely and
quality services to children in need. This work will be focused based on gaps found around six health system building blocks for
newborn health; Service Delivery, Workforce, Information Systems, Logistics, Financing, and Governance Accountability.

2. Encourage adoption of improved health-nutrition practices for children. The role of individuals, households, and communities
is critical in the adoption of healthy behaviour and timely appropriate care seeking. YSTC will draw on its extensive experience in
community-based programs to encourage the uptake of life-saving practices and services through behaviour-centered programs, social
and behaviour change communication, also community mobilization and capacity building.

Our Key Achievements in 2017

All of 30 targeted districts have developed one district level policy on maternal and newborn health; mainly in the form of Perbup (District
Head Regulation) to sustain budget allocation beyond program. 14 districts demonstrated improved maternal and newborn health referral
systems and increased budgetary commitments to maternal and newborn health. While 700 communities are reached through our maternal
and newborn health services.

We have finalized a model of community-based counter referral system as well as the INAP tracking tools for district level for wider use.
On child health, Service Availability Mapping (SAM) was conducted in West Sumba District, resulting on the list of 17 priority villages.
Meanwhile, we also have established Child Care Committee (KPA) in 70 targeted villages in West Sumba. In addition, 29 schools are engaged
to be supported to deliver adolescent sexual and reproductive health programs; 555 children demonstrate improved knowledge and
understanding of road safety in Bandung.

Febi Misses
Her Home
Febi (11) was sent to an orphanage in Bandung
when her parents lost their income and couldn’t
afford to send her to school any more. Her parents
believe it’s the only way to give their daughter a
better future.

After five months live the orphanage, Febi visited

her family, but afterwards she should returned to
the orphanage. Gilang, a YSTC social worker, is
working with the family to improve their situation
so that Febi can live with her parents again.

“Mom brought me to the orphanage and when she

left, I cried. I'm always thinking about her every
time, when I go to sleep, wake up, go to school,
recite the Quran, and even when I have a bath. I’m
always thinking of my mom's face, my home, and my
friends. I call home often,” said Febi.

In Indonesia, up to half a million children grow up in

orphanages, the highest proportion of any country
in the world.Yet nine out of ten children growing
up in care homes have at least one parent living.
Poverty is one of the main drivers for this.

We are working with the government to transform

the role of orphanages, improving the quality and
quantity of social workers supporting families, and
developing a parenting program to help creating a
more supportive and protective environment for
children at home.

 Basic Overview and Problem Statement

T
he Government of Indonesia has taken steps in the framework
of protecting children from violent acts. The Indonesia
Constitution of 1945 has mandated that every child has right to
live, grow, develop, and be protected from violence and
discrimination.
Indonesia has also ratified the UN Convention on the Rights of the
Child (UNCRC). This convention are requiring the state to protect
children from all forms of violence, both in terms of prevention and
handling, including providing assistance and protection for victims of
violence.
Apart from that, the Law No. 23 of 2002 was issued (revised to Act
No. 35 of 2014 and second amendment to Act No. 17 of 2016)
concerning Child Protection, affirming that the state will provide
comprehensive approach for child protection referring to the
UNCRC.
Yet reports from various studies lately described by Indonesia
Ministry of Women Empowerment and Child Protection, 1 out of 4
boys and 1 out of 8 girls have even experienced violence, and 40%
of children ages 13-15 reported to having been physically attacked
at least once within a given year.
Therefore, in collaboration with the government and relevant
stakeholders, the child protection system is being strengthening, and
we also work with children and communities to change the attitude
and social norms to ensure that all children have access to care and
protection.

Our Goal
Our goal is to strengthened the national child protection system to guarantee care and protection for all children and ensure that violence
against children is no longer be tolerated.

Our Objectives

Ÿ All children, including those on the move and in emergencies, have appropriate care either from their own families or alternative
care.
Ÿ All Children are protected from any forms of violence, including sexual violence and child marriage, and prevented from negative
impact of online or cyber threats.
Ÿ Children are protected from harmful labor.
Ÿ All children are protected through a strong national and sub-national child protection system, integrating both formal and
informal components, in development and emergency situations.

Our Program Interventions and Achievements
In 2017, we have implemented Child Protection interventions which have reached more than 30,000 children through project interventions
in West Sumatra, Lampung, Jakarta, West Java, Bali, East Nusa Tenggara, and South Sulawesi.

On Protection of Children from Violence

YSTC plays important role, chairing a presidium of CSO Alliance to End Violence Against Children (consists
of 26 organizations; INGO, NGO, CSO, Academic/Research Institution), working closely with the Indonesia
government to implement national strategies to eliminate violence against children, and support Indonesia as
one of pathfinding countries for Global Partnership to End Violence Against Children.

Whisnu Has
a School Now
Whisnu (12) can't walk and has been a wheelchair-
user since 2013. He lives with his mother, father,
three brothers, and one sister, but is cared for by
his mother. His home is small and cramped so he
can't always use his wheelchair. Sometimes he has
to crawl or be carried instead. He prefers to crawl
as he likes to be independent.

When he grows up, he'd like to be a computer

expert, but he's worried he won't be able to. “I
want to be a computer expert. But I'm afraid I
can't,” said Whisnu pessimistically.

With the help from Yayasan Sayangi Tunas Cilik,

Whisnu could go to school where he has many
friends and enjoys learning science. “I'm bored if I
just stay at home. What makes me happy at school
is that I have many friends. The teachers are nice. I
write and watch others playing. I don't play with
them. I just watch them playing,” said Whisnu.

Whisnu receives regular therapy and support from

our Community-Based Rehabilitation (CBR) centre,
involving his family too. Our social worker helped
Whisnu get into school, and Whisnu's Mum also
receives counseling to cope with the emotional
burden.

POVERTY
Living in an
Urban Slum
Gita (13) is one of the children who attend our
football program in North Jakarta. She and her
family were evicted from their home over a year
ago and they now live under a motorway in an
urban slum in North Jakarta. She lives in cramped,
noisy conditions with her younger sister, mother,
and father, and has to share a public toilet with her
neighbors.

Life has been tough for Gita and her family over the
past year, but recently Gita joined the new Yayasan
Sayangi Tunas Cilik football program which has been
funded and developed in partnership with the
Arsenal Foundation. Gita was the first girl to join
the football project and now loves spending time at
the football pitch with her friends.

“Here we get coaching-clinics as well as the soft-

skills classes and I think it is really good to learn
things outside of school. It is good to be part of the
team and learn new things like gender equality and
children rights. My parents work hard to support
our family but they are so busy that they don't
always have time for me. That's why I love going to
the football pitch, I can play with my friends. It's a
great distraction,” said Gita.

 Basic Overview and Problem Statement

I
n 2017 the Government of Indonesia and UNICEF launched a new report showcasing the progress towards achieving the Sustainable
Development Goals that the country has made for children, acknowledging challenges, and highlighting the crucial role of preventing
violence against children in reducing poverty. Some of key information associated to child poverty are below.

65% children suffer

from multidimensional
deprivation where poverty is
apparently the underlying factor.
There are wide geographical disparities in level
of child poverty. The population living in rural
area still rely on agriculture as the main income.
Poverty tends to be higher in these area.
In 2016, 14.1% of the rural population
are poor compared with 7.8%
of the urban population.
13 MILLION children
(equal to 16% of total children) in
Indonesia are at risk of poverty and
social exclusion. They grow up in poor
family with income that are only marginally
higher than the national poverty threshold.
Doubling the value of the national poverty
line would lead to a four-fold increase in the
national child poverty rate, up to 60%. It shows
the high degree of vulnerability and income
insecurity of families with children.
There are three critical health challenges
that face Indonesia's youth today;

other skills building. It also reached 24,672 in-school youth and 994
out-of-school youth (ages 19-24) through employability skills and
job counseling, and 800 youth on entrepreneurship skills training
and mentorship.

Child Sensitive Livelihood (CSL) interventions have reached 10.538
poor and marginalized families through programs reducing
vulnerability and enhancing household economic resiliency. The
program has benefited by 3,659 people (27.3% male and 72.7%
female adults) through livelihood diversification interventions.
The livelihood diversification intervention focus on providing small
business development and business facilitation. It is typically
implemented as a package of intervention that complement each
other (e.g. business training and support or mentoring accompanied
by improving financial access).
The interventions are designed to overcome barriers to do
businesses and build the capacity of local economy so that poor
farmer are able to generate a sufficient and reliable income to take
care well for their children and their cocoa farm.
In addition, the CSL program also support women's empowerment
and alternative livelihood development initiatives that reached 721
women. It provided basic knowledge and capacity building for
women on potential alternatives livelihood beyond cocoa. All CSL
programs has contributed to enhanced survival, protection, and
learning outcomes for children.
Adolescent Skills for Successful Transition (ASST) interventions
have reached a total of 13,410 children (6,821 girls and 6,589 boys
Financial literacy is part of our work readiness programs and
includes the development and implementation of smartphone
applications for adolescents and youth.
Our programs have successfully placed 60% of youth in
employment, entrepreneurship, and continuing education programs.
Currently it has expanded to coordinate with 114 Vocational
Secondary Schools in six districts, including two new districts in
West Java and Surabaya, East Java.
ASST is increasingly integrated with resiliency and child protection
in programs which target children working in waste management
(scavengers), many of whom are on the street, and with UNHCR on
adolescent refugees and asylum seekers (life skills and psychosocial
support).
Moreover, our work in utilizing sports for change/life
skills/protection in urban North Jakarta has reached 1,071 children
(40% girls) from the most marginalized communities. This project
has been recognized by the Jakarta Governor as outstanding.
In addition, ASST and CRG have coordinated to reach 1,099 youth.
We have collaborated with 40 employers for apprenticeship
programs and support capacity building for eight training provider
organizations. We are also coordinating with Jakarta 100 Resilient
Cities movement.

Our Partnership
We are exploring and developing partners as a strategy to strengthen our technical capacity, influence, scale, and to ensure big impact for
the children. As a broad target,YSTC aims to have strategic partners with UN Agencies (i.e UNICEF, ILO, IOM), the Indonesian Ministry of
Manpower, Ministry of Education, Bappenas, MoSA, TNP2K, Business Association,Vocational Training Center, CSO Network/Alliance,
University of Indonesia-PUSKAPA, and University of Atma Jaya for research study.

Implementing with the involvement of provincial, district, and village government is a minimum requirement for our work in Indonesia so
they are considered as strategic partners. We also would like to explore partnership with youth groups and virtual community groups.

experiencing a psychological impact, and missing
out on opportunities to learn in school. That's why
Yayasan Sayangi Tunas Cilik helps to protect
vulnerable boys and girls during disasters and their
aftermath through provision of child protection,
education, and health service in emergencies.

Besides provide disaster relief and emergency

 Basic Overview and Problem Statement

I ndonesia is a large country with 17,000 islands, over 80,000

kilometres of coast including various valuable natural resources.
It is considered a country with potentially high risk of natural
disasters as it experiences frequent earthquakes and volcanic
activity due to its location across three tectonic plates.
The Indonesia Disaster Risk Index of 2013 lists 497 disaster prone
districts and cities; 65 % of which have been listed a high risk and
35% as moderate risk. The National Disaster Response Framework
is being drafted at the national level to be used as guidance for
future response at national, provincial, and district level.
Based on a national hazard assessment, the Government of
Indonesia through National Disaster Management Agency (BNPB)
has listed 12 potential hazards as priorities which include
earthquake, tsunami, flood, landslide, volcanic eruption, extreme
tidal events, extreme weather, drought, forest and land fire, disease
epidemic or pandemic, technological failure, and social conflict and
terrorism.
In 2017 only, 2,341 cases, 47,442 houses, 1,272 education facilities,
113 health facilities, and 698 religious facilities damaged. 377 people
died and 3.5 million people affected and displaced due to disasters.
Indonesia has also experienced significant forest fires over the last
20 years, most severely in 2015, where more than two million
hectares of land were burnt. Forest fires also have a significant
impact on neighboring countries.
We have worked in Indonesia since 1976. We have staff and systems
in place that immediately spring into action and provide the vital
emergency relief. In recent decade and years, we have responded to
the Aceh tsunami, the Nias earthquake, the Yogyakarta earthquake,
the Java tsunami, the North Sumatra and North Aceh flood, the
West Sumatra earthquake, the Jakarta, Central Java, and East Java
floods, the West Java earthquake, Mount Merapi volcanic eruption,
the Malaka flood, the Bener Meriah earthquake, Andaman Sea Crisis,

humanitarian crisis and improve their capacity to support
girls and boys coping mechanism and resiliency in a
humanitarian crisis.

Our Achievements in 2016-2017

Our humanitarian response are focusing on two approach; Emergency Preparedness and Emergency Response. Before the crisis strikes, we
have been preparing resources including staff and stocks to be deployed and delivered immediately to response the humanitarian crisis.

Emergency Preparedness
A well trained YSTC Emergency Response Team (ERT) has been
developed over the last three years in Indonesia. The ERT is a group
of existing YSTC staff (to date there are 32 members) who have
experience and trained in emergency response that able to be
deployed immediately for humanitarian crisis. The team is
comprised of staff with diverse range of background and skills
including health, education, child protection, community
mobilization, communication, supply chain, IT, HR, and finance.
We are also maintaining contingency stocks for 2,000 children and
their families. We have 2,000 hygiene kits, 2,000 shelter kits, 51
school tents, and 20 learning kits and 15 recreational kits for Child
Friendly Space (CFS) as part of the contingency stocks. In addition,
we also have completed an Emergency Preparedness and Response
Plan which serves to govern division of responsibilities and actions
before and after an emergency. The plan is updated annually.
YSTC maintains and strengthens its networking at district and
national level by collaboration with ECB network (CARE
International, Catholic Relief Services, Mercy Corps, Oxfam GB,
Save the Children, and World Vision International), Humanitarian
Country Team (HCT), Consortium Disaster Education (CDE), and
have close coordination with Humanitarian Forum Indonesia,
Ministry of Social Affair, Ministry of Education, National Disaster
Management Agency at national level and some BPBD at provincial
and district level.
Networking and partnership with other has led to collaboration, for
example, in rapid needs assessment during response,
implementation of projects such as the Safe Schools Initiative and
capacity building.

Emergency Responses
Each year, we usually respond between 3 until 5 small-scale humanitarian crisis in category 4. Between 2016-2017, we have responded nine
humanitarian crises in various area in Indonesia.

Ÿ Respond to 9 small-scale categorized humanitarian crisis. The
crises consists of Andaman Sea Crisis (2016), West Java

Sumatra (Limapuluh Kota) flood (2017), Mount Agung Eruption
in Bali (2017), and West Java (Tasikmalaya) earthquake (2017).
Ÿ Child Protection in Emergency consists of provision of
Psychosocial Support Activities (PSA) and Psychological First
Aid (PFA) in Child Friendly Space, establishing referral system
mechanism, raising awareness about Child Protection in
Emergency, and applying Child Protection Minimum Standards in
Emergency.

Ending Violence
Against Children
Monica (15) is a child representative of Yayasan
Sayangi Tunas Cilik which attended "WHO 8th
Milestones of a Global Campaign for Violence
Prevention Meeting" in Ottawa, Canada, in October
2017, and also "End of Violence Solutions Summit"
in Stockholm, Sweden, in February 2018. In both of
these meetings, Monica was given the opportunity
to give a speech about the impact of violence
against children and how children can get involved
to eliminate the violence.

"In Indonesia there are still many cases of sexual

violence against children, from sexual harassment to
sexual assault. As a result, children are being
depressed, traumatized, introverted, and even
pregnant," said Monica in her speech in Canada.

Monica is the youngest of three siblings. She lives in

an orphanage in Yogyakarta since her age was 9
months old because her parents could not
financially support her. Living within the limitations
doesn’t make Monica to be a selfish child. It looks
from her commitment to continue to campaign for
the elimination of violence against children, both at
the local and international levels.

 Basic Overview and Problem Statement

T
he vision of Child Rights Governance (CRG) is a world where
accountable, responsive, and transparent governance assures
the rights of every child and where every child can have a voice
in governance.
Work on CRG aims to build societies that fulfill children's rights by
establishing and strengthening the governance system necessary for
states to effectively implement the United Nations Convention on
the Rights of the Child (UNCRC) and other child rights obligations.
CRG is about supporting a vibrant civil society pushing children up
the political agenda and holding states to account for what they
have or have not done to enable children to realize their rights. It is
an effective strategy for achieving a positive impact on millions of
children's lives, resulting in structural and lasting change.

Our Goals Our Ambition

1. All states meet their obligations under the UN Convention on
the Rights of the Child (UNCRC) and other international
instruments to monitor and implement children's rights.
2. A strong civil society, including children, holds states and the
international community to account for children's rights.
By 2020, all children, especially the poorest, benefit from greater
public investment and better use of society's resources in realizing
their rights.

Our Objectives
1. Strengthened state institutions and mechanisms for the implementation and monitoring of children's rights.
2. Increased awareness and capacity in civil society and among children to promote children's rights and hold duty bearers accountable.

Our Global Outcome Indicators

In order to monitor our progress towards these objectives,Yayasan Sayangi Tunas Cilik (YSTC) has three global outcome indicators:

or partnering with YSTC.

Our Program Interventions and Achievements

I. Monitoring and Demanding Children's Rights with Children
1. Supporting children and civil society organizations to collect evidence on child rights situations, report to regional and international
accountability mechanisms for child and human rights, and use outcomes in national advocacy to demand accountability for child rights.
2. Using child-centred social accountability to ensure accessible, quality essential services for children.
3. Holding private sector accountable for its impact on child rights.
4. Supporting children's groups to influence national governance and amplify their voices across national systems.
5. Influencing establishment of and testing SDG accountability mechanism work related to UNCRC OP3.

YSTC work with children and their communities to understand the situation of children and to speak out when children's rights are
violated. Pursuing that those responsible explain what they have done or failed to do, and what actions they will take to improve
children's lives.

In Indonesia, we work with children and youth groups throughout Indonesia in various level of engagement in order to bring their
voices out towards the policy makers, for example children and youth met and had a dialogue with Members of Parliament,
Ministers and local officials conveying their messages related to ending violence against children, financing in education, and better
health access and quality.

In Bandung city, we collaborated with hospitality sectors (hotels and restaurants) in promoting Child Rights and Business Principles
(CRBP), an effort to hold private sector accountable for its impact on child rights. In 2016, there are 52 hotels and restaurants
enacted CRBP into their business plans.

34
II. Good Governance that Delivers Children's Rights
1. Continue working on UNCRC reporting mechanism.
2. Increasing focus on transparent and inclusive governance, including implementation of SDG governance goal and targets.
3. Engaging with Open Government Partnership.

In order to make children's rights a reality, governments must put in place a child rights system that includes laws, policies,
coordination mechanisms, data collection systems, and accountability mechanisms. This system is made up of a number of General
Measures of Implementation.

In Indonesia,YSTC continuously engaged in the UNCRC reporting mechanism, such as Universal Periodic Review and Concluding
Observation in collaboration with other child-focused organizations and respective ministries. In 2010, together with the National
NGO Coalition for Child Rights Monitoring we had developed and submitted the Review Report on the Implementation of the
Convention on the Rights of the Child in Indonesia 1997-2009 (periodic report III and IV).

III. Public Investment in Children

1. Advocating for children, including those who are most deprived and excluded, to be prioritized in the mobilization, allocation, and
utilization of public resources.
2. Supporting governments to put into practice the UNCRC General Comment on public budgets to realize the rights of the child.

In order to fulfill children's rights, governments must invest more in children's health, learning, and protection, especially for the
most deprived groups of children. Governments need to improve how money is spent and be more open about who benefits.

In Indonesia,YSTC has empowered 20 community-based organisations (CBOs) (including youth representatives) in Garut and
Sukabumi District to influence district and provincial level government budget for decent work, to increase access for youth
employment, and improved budget allocation for market driven BTVET (Business Technical and Vocational Training) and
apprenticeship.

Our Partnership
All Child Rights Governance programs are requiring close collaboration with children, civil society organizations, communities, governments,
and the private sector to share knowledge, influence others, and build capacity to ensure children's rights are met.

We will continue to take part in a range of partnerships, including Children Forum at district and provincial level Youth Groups on SDGs,
National NGO Coalition for Child Rights Monitoring, CSO Coalition on Ending Violence Against Children, NGO Coalition on Post 2015
Agenda, Indonesia Global Compact Network, National Human Rights Commissions, National Child Rights Commission, and all respective
Ministries and UN bodies.

OUR
ADVOCACY AND
CAMPAIGN ACTIVITIES
W
e advocate and campaign for change to realize children's
rights and to ensure that their voices are heard. Our
advocacy encompasses research and policy analysis,
lobbying, communications, and public campaigning. In different
situations, our advocacy can be focused on securing formal policy
changes, driving implementation of existing policies, or creating an
enabling environment for change.
Our Advocacy in 2017
I
n 2017, we have successfully encouraged Government of
Indonesia and Indonesia President Joko Widodo to sign the
Government Regulation on Child Care Implementation on
October 16th 2017. This is a paramount of our advocacy led efforts
since 2012 as a follow up on legal reform to strengthen continuum
care for children as indicators for paradigm shift from institutional
based care toward family based care.

our campaign video
With our meticulously planned advocacy and campaign initiatives,
which are firmly grounded in the programmatic evidence, we make
a strong case for pro-child policies and social changes. We advocate
and campaign to influence the policies and actions of governments,
institutions, the private sector, and the community at large, in order
to achieve positive changes in children’s lives.
This achievement continues our advocacy work as previously we
have also successfully advocated the National Standard of Care
(NSC) in 2011 through the issued of the Regulation of Social
Minister No. 30/2011 as the basis reformation roles of orphanage
as a last resort and supporting family based care. NSC becomes the
basis of accreditation system for orphanages, and with our support,
Ministry of Social Affairs (MoSA) have rolled out it across 32
provinces in Indonesia. By 2017, MoSA targeted 2,000 orphanages
will have accreditation test.
Another successful advocacy work on regulations is the issued of
Presidential Decree No. 59/2017 on SDGs Implementation in the
government program. We are one of the few child-focused CSOs
involved in the SDGs coalition and network that regularly engaging
with the SDGs secretariat (BAPPENAS) during the process of
translating the SDGs commitments into national policies. We are
also one of working group member of Education under SDGs.
In 2017, we have also encouraged the issued of regulation to
improve the implementation of inclusive education in national and
provincial level. Some efforts have been starting with technical
directorate in Ministry of Education and Culture.
To have the regulation only is never enough for a country as large
as Indonesia, so our advocacy effort also focused on changing
practices around child protection and welfare of duty bearers.
During 2017, we have advocated to encourage the mainstreaming
parenting and case management approached into program under
MoSA and Ministry of Woman Empowerment and Child Protection
(MWECP). Both ministries accepted these approached and the
training will begin in 2018 for their staff, social workers, and
facilitators including resources from government. This is
opportunity to share our expertise and skills of our approach for
broader application under government programs and place our
organization position for meaningful contribution.
In local level, we have contribution for the development and
legalization of Malang District Regulation No. 2/2017 on Exclusive
Breastfeeding, West Sumba District Regulation No. 6/2017 on
Education Services, and District Head of West Sumba Regulation
No. 11/2017 on the Case Management Procedures to Address
Violence Against Children in West Sumba District.

In order to raise more revenue in 2018, fundraising will expand
face-to-face fundraising to five more cities in Indonesia, strengthen
tele-fundraising strategy and set up digital fundraising as a huge
market opportunity. It is also essential to embody strategy that is
more engaging to retain quality donor.
In 2017, we also partnering with local and multinational
corporations like Glaxo Smith-Kline, Johnson and Johnson,
Mastercard, Reckitt Benckiser, and Go-Jek. The partnership allows
us to join our effort with corporations to support the future of
Indonesian children.

OUR
FINANCIAL
PROFILE
Our Income

O
ur income is made up of Restricted Income, which must be
used only for the purpose specified by the donor, and
Unrestricted Income, which may be used where we believe it
will have the most impact.
Unrestricted Income is particularly important in a humanitarian
crisis when we need to act quickly or when we are piloting
innovative programs, to ensure we are agile enough to meet
children's needs in a changing world.
Unrestricted Income is vital to our ability to meet our strategic
objectives, support long-term growth of the organization, and bring
meaningful and lasting change for every last child.
