The implementation of the New Urban Agenda in Indonesia has been initiated by various entities concerned with the current state of urban development, not only the government but also community organizations, professional associations and research organizations. At the policy dimensions, the government of the Republic of Indonesia incorporates the implementation of the New Urban Agenda (NUA), as part of SDGs, throughout the national development agenda. With the enactment of Presidential Decree No 59 the Year 2017 about Implementation Achievement of Sustainable Development Goals, NUA is framed into national action plans and policies. Its implementation is monitored and reported. It also recognizes the roles of the national level of government as well as the local level. This is a massive and collaborative endeavour between government and non-state actors designed to serve 264 million people. The Explanation of Law no. 1 the year 2011 on Housing and Human Settlement states the active participation of Indonesia in the international community, including activities of the United Nations Center for Human Settlements (UN-Habitat).
