The fundamental mission of UNICEF is to promote the rights of every child, everywhere, in everything the Organization does — in programmes, in advocacy and in operations. The equity strategy, emphasizing the most disadvantaged and excluded children and families, translates this commitment to children’s rights into action. For UNICEF, equity means that all children have an opportunity to survive, develop and reach their full potential, without discrimination, bias or favoritism. To the degree that any child has an unequal chance in life — in its social, political, economic, civic and cultural dimensions — her or his rights are violated. There is growing evidence that investing in the health, education and protection of a society’s most disadvantaged citizens — addressing inequity — not only will give more children the opportunity to fulfill their potential but also will lead to sustained growth and stability of countries. This is why the focus on equity is so vital. It accelerates progress towards realizing the human rights of all children, which is the universal mandate of UNICEF, as outlined by the Convention on the Rights of the Child, while also supporting the equitable development of nations.

Child and adolescent participation are a fundamental right and an important priority under Indonesia’s national development agenda. The RPJMN 2025–2029 promotes and monitors youth participation through indicators related to the involvement of children in development planning processes. This is also aligned with the joint commitment of UNICEF and the Government of Indonesia under the new Country Programme to promote adolescent participation and civic engagement, including by strengthening platforms, systems, and accountability mechanisms that enable children and adolescents to express their views and have their voices considered in decision-making processes.
To support this agenda, the Government of Indonesia, through the Ministry of National Development Planning/Bappenas and the Ministry of Women’s Empowerment and Child Protection (MoWECP), with support from UNICEF, developed a monitoring information system for child and adolescent participation (Suara Makna). Suara Makna is designed to document and track children’s and adolescents’ voices in development planning processes, particularly through Forum Anak and Musrenbang, and to monitor whether these inputs are followed up by relevant government actors. The system aims to strengthen meaningful child participation by ensuring that children’s voices are not only collected, but also recorded, considered, responded to, and used as evidence for more child-centred planning and governance.
