Understanding Gender-Responsive Budgeting at the Local Level The Case of Mojokerto Regency, East Java
ABSTRACT
This study investigates the implementation of Gender-Responsive Budgeting
(GRB) within the framework of local government development planning in
Indonesia, using Mojokerto Regency as a case study. Despite national-level
mandates and regulatory frameworks, significant implementation challenges persist
at the local level, particularly regarding institutional coordination, stakeholder
engagement, and integration of gender perspectives in budgeting processes. Using
a sequential mixed-methods approach that combines qualitative interviews and
Social Network Analysis (SNA) to identify structural, institutional, and
participatory challenges that hinder effective GRB implementation. While tools
such as Gender Analysis Pathways (GAP), Gender Budget Statements (GBS), and
Terms of Reference (TOR) have been adopted, their application remains uneven
due to limited technical capacity, weak interagency coordination, and minimal use
of gender-disaggregated data. NVivo analysis reveals that GRB is often treated as
procedural compliance rather than a transformative planning instrument, and SNA
highlights the dominant but overburdened roles of the Regional Development
Agency and the Women’s Empowerment Agency. The findings suggest that
although Mojokerto demonstrates moderate institutionalization of GRB, greater
effort is needed to build inclusive governance, strengthen institutional leadership,
and realign budgeting with gender equity goals.
