**INOVASI Phase 3 - Interpreters/ Translators****Project Overview and Role**:Indonesia's Vision 2045 sets the goal for Indonesia to transition from a resource-based economy towards an advanced service, technology, and knowledge-based economy by the centenary of its independence (2045). The 2025-2045 National Long Term Development Plan emphasizes the urgency of Indonesia's human resource development to fully realise 2045 goals.Faced however with persistent low student performance that is emblematic of a learning crisis, significant improvement in student learning will be required to reach Indonesia's 2045 goals. Government of Indonesia (GoI) has started an ambitious program of education reforms. Successive education ministers have set out to modernise the education system through reforming the national curriculum and teaching and assessment approaches, to produce citizens with strong foundational skills, open minds, and inclusive values.Australia is a long-term supporter of the Indonesian basic education sector, with continuous investments supporting education quality improvements for the past two decades, including through the INOVASI program (Phase 1 2016-2020; Phase 2 2020-2023) that focused on supporting acquisition of literacy and numeracy foundational skills in early grades classrooms; exploring local problems and solutions; and generating evidence to inform government policy development and practices.This third phase of INOVASI (2024-2027) builds upon the existing program's approach and lessons learned and takes the focus on the development of foundational skills through to the end of the primary grades. Phase 3 will engage with priority issues of Australia's development policy: gender equality, effective inclusion of children with a disability, responses to the climate change challenge in education. It will focus on the challenge of policy implementation and the gaps that exist between national policies and practices at district and school levels, and use the well attested-success of INOVASI's local problem-based approach to continuously support policy development for effective fit between policy and implementation context.The Program is implemented by Palladium on behalf of DFAT.**Primary Duties and Responsibilities**:**Purpose of the Position**:**Interpreters/Translators **for INOVASI Phase 3 will be responsible for tasked with the responsibility of translating written communication and interpreting spoken communication between English and Bahasa Indonesia, including in operations engagement with the Ministry of Religious Affairs (MoRA),Ministry of Education, Culture, Research and Technology (MoECRT) and Bappenas.
