A partnership for prosperity

Prospera builds on two decades of Australian support for strong, sustainable and inclusive economic growth in Indonesia. It implements important elements of the comprehensive strategic partnership between the two countries.

Prospera works with more than 21 Indonesian government agencies, providing them with evidence on which to base policy. Prospera advice helps to improve government spending and revenue, markets, the financial sector, transport, and public-sector institutions in Indonesia.

Prospera combines advisers who have extensive knowledge of Indonesia, with those who have experience in the Australian public service or emerging markets.

Prospera is a grant-funded partnership between Australia’s Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade, and Indonesia’s Coordinating Ministry for the Economy. The program is delivered by DT Global.
