🎣 For years, Indonesia's coastal women worked up to 18 hours a day in labor the state refused to recognize — processing fish, managing household water and sanitation, and sustaining entire fishing communities, all while being excluded from the government forums that controlled their lives. 💧 Poor sanitation, contaminated water supplies, and garbage-filled fishing villages created a deepening health crisis across Indonesia's coastline, with women and marginalized families bearing the heaviest burden. 🌊 Through IBP's Strengthening Public Accountability for Results and Knowledge (SPARK) program, the Indonesian Traditional Fisherfolk Union (KNTI) and the Indonesian Coastal Women's Union (KPPI) trained over 5,800 coastal women to collect data, analyze budgets, conduct social audits, and advocate directly with government officials — transforming invisible workers into powerful local leaders. 🎯 The results were transformative: Rp 5.6 billion ($333,000 USD) secured for clean water infrastructure, proper sanitation for 35 households, road repairs preventing tidal floods, and dedicated seats for women in government budget planning forums. 🏛️ Press play and meet the women who refused to wait for change. ✨ 📊 Timestamps: 00:00 - Life in Indonesia's Coastal Fishing Villages 00:45 - The Invisible Labor of Coastal Women 02:00 - Health and Sanitation Crisis in Fishing Communities 03:15 - Organizing for Change: KNTI, KPPI, and IBP's SPARK Program 04:30 - Data Collection, Budget Analysis, and Social Audits 05:45 - Community Victories: Clean Water, Sanitation, and Budget Access 07:00 - Building Local Leaders for a Better Future ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ✨ Explore More Resources ✨ 🔗 IBP's Work in Indonesia: https://www.internationalbudget.org/ 🔗 IBP Strengthening Public Accountability Initiative: https://internationalbudget.org/initiative/strengthening-public-accountability/ 🔗 Indonesian Traditional Fisherfolk Union (KNTI): https://knti.or.id/ ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ About This Channel Welcome to the International Budget Partnership – your gateway to transparent, inclusive, and accountable public budgeting worldwide. 🌍✨ Discover the transformative power of fiscal transparency and embark on a journey toward democratic governance and social justice.
