Indonesia’s National Standards of Care for Child Welfare Institutions is a crucial policy instrument, drafted in response to the recommendations of the United Nations Committee on the Rights of the Child, regulating the provision of alternative care for children. The drafting of the National Standards of Care was based on the findings of two important studies conducted by Save the Children - Research on the Quality of Care in Childcare Institutions and Child Led Research. The report lays out the process of drafting the standards and highlights some of the objectives of the standards, approaches, along with other details such as the establishment, permit and accreditation of child welfare institutions.
