Most pressing policy challenges take an entire village to be solved.
Stakeholders must work hand in hand across different perspectives and interests. At Think Policy, we help make that collaboration possible.
We believe that every challenge in Indonesian public policy requires more than technical expertise to solve—there are human experiences and choices to understand. That’s why we promote an approach based on both evidence and empathy centered on humans.
To bring together the people, ideas, and capabilities needed to turn complex challenges into cross-sectoral collaborative action through our ecosystem approach of (Un)Learning, Storytelling, Convening, and Solutioning.
Our first experiment was a policy bootcamp for policy professionals in Jakarta, creating a space for people to learn, exchange ideas, and connect around public policy.

What started as a bootcamp grew into a volunteer-based community of young professionals, coming together to learn, contribute, and respond to emerging needs across the public and private sectors.

As the community grew, we saw the need for a more sustainable way to deepen our impact.
We took our approach to public policy into an enterprise model, building a network of reformists and making policy knowledge more accessible.

We believe meaningful policymaking depends on citizens being informed and meaningfully engaged.
We expanded our work beyond policy professionals to the wider public, launching Vote Wisely, an accessible, technology-based political education platform ahead of the 2024 election.
The initiative went on to reach 1.4 million visitors around 300 cities and regencies in Indonesia–becoming the foundation for our broader work on civic and political education.

Beyond helping citizens make informed choices at the ballot box, we believe that citizens need to stay informed and meaningfully engage beyond elections.
We launched Monitor Wisely, a technology-enabled platform that helps citizens follow and understand the work of their policymakers, creating more informed and meaningful engagement between citizens and legislators.

As part of the LSE100x Impact Accelerator, we are embracing a new chapter: building impact is not only about what we do ourselves, but also about working with others to strengthen the conditions, capabilities, and connections that can expand the policy window.

Expanding the window of policy reform
Think Policy aims to do public policy differently by strengthening the ecosystem around it. Telling relevant stories to the public and equipping professionals with ample policymaking tools are important, but we also need to go beyond by breaking down the silos in the policymaking process and work hand in hand to come up with innovative policy solutions.
We introduced an integrated approach through four pillars that support and reinforce each other in practice—(Un)Learning, Convening, Storytelling, and Solutioning—in order to expand the window of policy reform in Indonesia.
