Multi-disciplinary stakeholders were involved in developing the policy, which included clinicians, academics, carer, NGO, and other stakeholders. NGOs with international outlook have a focus on aligning the national policy with international goals (for example, early diagnosis is also a priority in Indonesia’s national strategic plan). A monitoring report on the policy has not yet been published but the document suggests that monitoring and evaluation should be conducted by all stakeholders including central and local governments, Komisi Lanjut Usia, the involved universities, professional organizations, and NGOs (Ministry of Health Republic of Indonesia, 2015b). There are tangible outcome indicators for each of the action steps in the policy (Ministry of Health Republic of Indonesia, 2015a, pp.25-35).
