The role that policy diffusion plays in how Jamkesda and BOSDA has spread to so many districts in Indonesia is the topic
of this study. Understanding policy diffusion is important because it assists policy-makers with understanding why
governments adopt particular policies and why policy replication takes place.
Understanding policy diffusion is also relevant to governance programs, such as the Australia Indonesia Partnership for
Development (AIPD) or a successor program, because it provides insights as to why certain policies recommended
external parties gain traction and others do not. It also helps to explain where district governments source policy ideas
and which policy transfer process is most effective for encouraging district governments to adopt new policies. This study also aims to contribute to the academic literature on policy diffusion. The spread of BOSDA and Jamkesda has not been systematically researched in Indonesia and this study aims to contribute to this gap in literature by analysing how
the schemes spread to four districts in Indonesia. This report presents the findings of the study.
