Implementation of the Indonesia-Australia Partnership for Infrastructure (KIAT): Palembang City Sewerage Project 2023

Abstract

This research examines the implementation of the Indonesia-Australia Partnership for Infrastructure (KIAT) through the Palembang City Sewerage Project 2023. Using the theoretical framework of Multi Stakeholder Initiatives and the concept of international cooperation, this research aims to analyze the effectiveness of collaboration between various stakeholders in the project. The research was conducted using a qualitative method involving document analysis. The implementation of this project also contributes to the achievement of Sustainable Development Goal (SDGs) point 6, which is to ensure access to clean water and sanitation for all. The results showed that this collaboration was successfully implemented, with the main indicators being the improvement of the quality of sanitation in Palembang, increasing the capacity of local institutions in managing infrastructure projects, and achieving sustainable development targets. This success was achieved through effective coordination between the governments of Indonesia and Australia, as well as support from the private sector and civil society. This study confirms the importance of international cooperation and multi-stakeholder engagement in realizing sustainable and impactful infrastructure projects.
