RINGKASAN EKSEKUTIF
Pada kuartal kedua tahun FY 2020 ini, JAPRI menjalankan berbagai kegiatan inti baik untuk JAPRI full
implementataion maupun inisiatif W-GDP (Women’s Global Development and Prosperity).
Kegiatan yang diadakan JAPRI pada periode ini mencakup kegiatan-kegiatan seperti Training of Trainers,
mentoring dan coaching, dan kegiatan Entrepreneurship Training baik yang dilakukan oleh
stakeholder maupun yang dilakukan melalui One Day Business Training. Coaching adalah kegiatan
individu yang memberikan bantuan khusus oleh pelatih bisnis JAPRI langsung kepada pemuda miskin dan
rentan (poor and vulnerable/P&V) untuk memungkinkan mereka menyelesaikan tantangan unik dalam
memulai bisnis, meningkatkan pola pikir wirausaha mereka dan mengidentifikasi peluang bisnis. Mentoring
adalah kegiatan kelas yang difasilitasi oleh praktisi bisnis lokal atau profesional untuk memberikan
pengetahuan pengembangan bisnis khusus P&V kepada kaum muda. Ini dirancang sebagai mekanisme untuk
menghubungkan pengusaha yang lebih berpengalaman yang dapat membantu penerima manfaat melalui
berbagai metode, seperti berbagi pengetahuan, dan memberikan contoh nyata dari proses pengembangan
bisnis. One Day Business Training merupakan bagian dari kegiatan Entrepreneurship Training yang
dilakukan oleh JAPRI untuk membantu meningkatkan pengetahuan dan kemampuan anak muda dalam
kewirausahaan.
Yang berbeda dengan kegiatan-kegiatan yang dilakukan JAPRI pada periode pelaporan kuartal kedua ini
adalah adanya kondisi pandemi COVID-19. Pandemi ini mengakibatkan dilarangnya kegiatan-kegiatan yang
melibatkan pengumpulan massa maupun berkelompok yang disuarakan melalui anjuran pembatasan sosial
oleh pemerintah pusat. Oleh karena itu, JAPRI mulai melakukan strategi ulang dan melakukan perencanaan
untuk mengalihkan beberapa kegiatan-kegiatannya ke metode online/digital, untuk mengurangi resiko
penyebaran maupun paparan kepada COVID-19.
Kegiatan-kegiatan yang telah dilaksanakan oleh Program JAPRI yang didanai USAID pada periode Januari -
Maret 2020 adalah sebagai berikut:
JAPRI Full Implementation:
a. Pelatihan untuk Pelatih (ToT) – Modul Pelatihan JAPRI: Pada periode ini telah terlaksana
satu kali ToT, dengan jumlah peserta 34 orang.
b. One Day Business Training (ODBT): Pelatihan kewirausahaan ini dilaksanakan dengan strategi
baru yang memungkinkan JAPRI untuk menjangkau lebih banyak peserta dalam waktu yang lebih
singkat sambil tetap secara efektif mengantarkan modul kewirausahaan JAPRI. Strategi baru ini
disebut Pelatihan Bisnis Satu Hari (ODBT). Konsep di balik ODBT adalah JAPRI memberikan
pelatihan satu hari penuh tentang kewirausahaan yang didedikasikan untuk meningkatkan
pengetahuan bisnis para peserta dan disampaikan dalam gaya yang sederhana, ringkas, dan mudah
diserap. Total 204 peserta telah tercapai melalui ODBT.
c. Coaching & Mentoring: Pada periode ini terlaksana sebanyak 6 sesi mentoring dan 37 sesi
coaching, dengan total jumlah peserta 287 orang
JAPRI W-GDP:
a. Pelatihan untuk Pelatih (ToT) – Modul Pelatihan JAPRI: Pada periode ini telah terlaksana
satu kali ToT, dengan jumlah peserta 40 orang.
b. Entrepreneurship Training: Pada periode ini, JAPRI W-GDP telah melakukan
entrepreneurship training di Trenggalek dan telah menjangkau 81 peserta.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
In the second quarter of FY 2020, JAPRI carried out core activities for both JAPRI full implementation and
JAPRI W-GDP (Women’s Global Development and Prosperity) initiative.
Activities undertaken by JAPRI in this period include Training of Trainers, mentoring and coaching,
and Entrepreneurship Training activities carried out by stakeholders or conducted through One Day
Business Training. Coaching is an individual activity that provides special assistance by JAPRI business
coaches directly to P&V youth to enable them to solve unique challenges in starting a business, improve
their entrepreneurial mindset and identify business opportunities. Mentoring is a class activity facilitated
by local business practitioners or professionals to provide young P&V business development knowledge
to young people. It was designed as a mechanism to connect more experienced entrepreneurs who can
help beneficiaries through various methods, such as sharing knowledge, and providing concrete examples
of business development processes. One Day Business Training is part of the Entrepreneurship
Training activities conducted by JAPRI to help improve the knowledge and abilities of young people in
entrepreneurship.
What distinguishes the activities carried out by JAPRI in this second quarter reporting period is the
unprecedent COVID-19 pandemic, which resulted in restrictions introduced by the central government
of activities involving the gathering of large numbers of people in one location and recommendation for
social distancing. Based on these restrictions, JAPRI re-strategized activities and shifted some of its
activities to an online / digital method to comply with government recommendations to help contain the
spread of COVID-19.
The activities carried out by the USAID-funded JAPRI Program in the January - March 2020 period are as
follows:
JAPRI Full Implementation:
a. Training for Trainers (ToT) - JAPRI Training Module: In this period, a ToT was held once,
with 34 participants.
b. One Day Business Training: During JAPRI's implementation in the first quarter of this year,
entrepreneurship training was carried out with a new strategy that allowed JAPRI to reach more
participants in a shorter time. This new strategy is called One Day Business Training (ODBT). The
concept behind ODBT is that JAPRI provides a full day of entrepreneurship training dedicated to
increasing the business knowledge of participants and delivered in a style that is simple, concise, and
easily absorbed. A total of 204 participants were reached through ODBT.
c. Coaching & Mentoring: During this reporting period, JAPRI organized 6 mentoring sessions and
37 coaching sessions for a total of 287 participants.
JAPRI W-GDP:
a. Training for Trainers (ToT) - JAPRI Training Module: In this period, a ToT was held once,
with 40 participants.
b. Entrepreneurship Training: In this period, JAPRI W-GDP conducted entrepreneurship training in
Trenggalek and reached 81 participants.

I. JAPRI Quarterly Overview
1.1. Program Summary
As Indonesia’s economy continues to grow, economic inequality also increases, and the population living
near or below the poverty line is at-risk of being left behind. Entrepreneurship provides an important
avenue for P&V youth to improve their livelihoods, create economic opportunity for themselves and
others in their communities, and contribute to Indonesia’s economic development. JAPRI leverages and
tailors existing entrepreneurship resources to develop, test, and scale an approach to promoting
entrepreneurship among P&V youth. JAPRI is implemented by a consortium led by the Institute of
International Education (IIE), in collaboration with implementing partners Prestasi Junior Indonesia (PJI)
and Mien R. Uno Foundation (MRUF). The consortium offers entrepreneurship expertise; a proven ability
to work directly with P&V youth in Indonesia; and networks of local governments, universities, and
successful youth entrepreneurs. JAPRI also collaborates with local governments and universities to identify
potential P&V youth and leverage the knowledge of youth representatives to ensure a youth-friendly
entrepreneurship module. Lastly, to increase the effectiveness and sustainability of promoting
entrepreneurship among youth, JAPRI has also begun engagement with the private sector, such as financial
intitutions that will potentially support the participants’ needs for capital from loan products, and agri
business based private sectors like Cargill, as it is also part of the business enabling environment.
In July 2019, the Women’s Global Development and Prosperity (W-GDP) Initiative awarded additional
funding to JAPRI to support activities focused on young women in selected business sectors in East Java.
Building from previous work in Blitar District and close relations with the local government, JAPRI is now
expanding its work by focusing on increasing the number of women-owned businesses and creating an
empowering environment in their households to include men in sharing domestic responsibilities.
JAPRI W-GDP began implementation of its workplan in the first quarter of FY20 with the modification of
the JAPRI entrepreneurship module, completion of gender module, and first training of trainers (TOT) in
Trenggalek.
1.2. Overview of Results
For Q2 of FY 20, JAPRI monitored progress against the 10 indicators of JAPRI Full Implementation as well
as additional 8 indicators of JAPRI W-GDP Initiative. During this quarter, JAPRI Full Implementation
achieved the target result in one indicator: Number of individuals with improved skills following completion
of USG-assisted workforce development programs (F.EG.6-2). Meanwhile, JAPRI W-GDP carried out the
first ToT, One Day Business Training (ODBT), and Entrepreneursip Training (ET). The result of these
activities contributed to the three F indicators: EG.6-3, EG.6-2, and ES.1-12.

II. Program Administration
In December 2019, the communication consultant resigned, therefore during January - March, JAPRI
conducted recruitment to fill the position. Even though the team identified a strong candidate, the
onboarding was put on hold due to COVID-19. Because of the gathering restrictions, the consultant would
not be able to complete their daily tasks that include outreach activities and contact with participants.
As of March 15, JAPRI suspended activities in the field due to the central governments issuance of
restrictions of activities involving the gathering of large numbers of people in one location and
recommendation for social distancing. In addition, the JAPRI team (IIE, MRUF, PJI, and KPS2K) started
working from home to remain compliant with the government’s new policy. However, the team continues
working with respective stakeholders to design a suitable online learning platform for beneficiaries so that
the planned activities can be completed in the next three months. Below is a list of steps and adjustments
that the team plans to incorporate during the COVID-19 pandemic:

1. Adjustment in the training component – development of videos that will include the JAPRI
entrepreneurship module.

Timeline for the online learning material development and roll out:
a) Initial scripting and video shoot will be conducted in April – May,
b) Delivery of the online training video will be implemented in June or July. During this time
period JAPRI will also conduct an evaluation and continue to address any feedback and
improve on the online training material.
Steps of the online training video delivery:
a) Videos will be uploaded to Google Classroom for participants to watch,
b) JAPRI trainers will be responsible in making sure that the participants have watched the video
by confirming through whatsapp groups or directly to the participants
c) After watching the videos, participants will be asked to practice what they have learned from
the videos by doing the online assignment based on JAPRI workbook,
d) All participant will receive support from local trainers who will guide them so that they can
complete the assignments. By the end of the training, participants are required to submit their
business plan,
e) Participants will follow the same timeline as with the in person trainigs and will have 2 to 3
months to submit the business plan.
The online ET is expected to be delivered for a total of 8 hours, but the delivery of the materials is
more flexible and can be delivered in sessions according to the participants needs and availability of
time to schedule the sessions.
2. Adjustments for coaching - sessions are conducted by phone or Whatsapp calls. Since the sessions
are one-on-one, the delivery of coaching can be successful.
3. Adjustments conducted by JAPRI partners:
MRUF will produce a few online learning materials and will involve JAPRI-trained trainers and business
practitioners as presenters. The online mentoring materials will be uploaded to YouTube with a link
accessible to participants only. The video will be cataloged into different sessions/themes that need
to be completed by participants. The beneficiaries will be communities and university students in East
Java (Universitas Trunojoyo Madura), Central Java (Unika Soegijapranata Semarang), and West Java
(Universitas Pendidikan Indonesia). It is expected that 500 participants from communities and 1,000
university students will be able to access these mentoring materials. To keep track on the progress
9
of the delivery of the mentoring sessions, JAPRI will still utilize monitoring methods it has used
previously, like spreading surveys through google forms, and directly respond to participants.
KPS2K and PJI will utilize Whatsapp to send out videos or voice notes, since their participants are in
rural areas and the delivery of training and mentoring sessions is more challenging due to lack of
Internet connectivity. After participants watch the videos or hear the voice notes, an interactive
session will be held through WA group calls or chats.
Long Term adaptation - JAPRI is in discussion with Coaching Indonesia to develop a digital learning material
that will be available for future activities. Coaching Indonesia will design a userfriendly materials that will
require minimum device specification. Through this digital learning JAPRI expects to deliver a number of
capacity building materials such as training, coaching and mentoring to a wider audience. In addition, the
platform will be utilized as a tool to collect monitoring and evaluation information of the activities and the
participants. With this platform, it is expected that participants are able to receive capacity building from
JAPRI without being constrained to challenges like geographical areas, and scheduling issues.
III. Program Activities - Key Highlights during the Reporting
Period
III.1 Training of Trainers (ToT)
One of the first activities JAPRI held during the second quarter of FY20 was the Training of Trainers
(ToT), which was implemented at Universitas Pendidikan Indonesia (UPI), Bandung, West Java, on January
28-30. The ToT’s participants were 34 UPI lecturers from a wide variety of faculties across their Bandung,
Serang, and Cibiru campuses. The training was held in UPI’s Faculty of Economic and Business lecture hall
on its Bandung campus .
Before the training was held, JAPRI conducted a technical meeting attended by representatives from UPI,
JAPRI, and USAID on January 28. The meeting was kicked off with welcoming remarks from UPI’s Rector,
Prof. Dr H. Rd. Asep Kadarohman, M.Si. In his opening speech, he greeted the participants from UPI’s
branch campuses, and welcomed JAPRI and USAID representatives. He explained that currently,
entrepreneurship learning programs at UPI are being highly promoted, and he encouraged the lecturers
to support the program so that UPI students will eventually be able to establish their own businesses. The
support from external parties like JAPRI, and the support of UPI’s own lecturers, is very important as the
university is just one step further before students enter the professional world and therefore universities
as learning institutions, should prepare their students to adapt to both the formal and informal sectors of
work to open economic opportunities.
The session was then continued by Thomas Crehan, USAID-Indonesia’s Human Capacity and Partnership
Office Director. He stated that USAID will continue to strengthen their cooperation with UPI through
JAPRI, including a possibility for a lecturer exchange program through a State Department program. Mr
Crehan also stated that UPI has become a strategic partner for USAID, enabling JAPRI to reach around
1400 USAID JAPRI beneficiaries from UPI’s students.
After the opening session, JAPRI led the technical meeting. JAPRI explained that to ensure the effectiveness
of the TOT and the entrepreneuship training sessions that will come after, there are terms and conditions
the participants should follow. The terms and conditions for the participants are;
1. Students’ list: The lecturers who will participate in the ToT and become JAPRI’s trainers will be
required to submit a list of students that they will teach. This list will help JAPRI to estimate the
number of students to be reached using the JAPRI module, and also reduce the possibility of
double counting if more than one lecturer is teaching the same students.
10
2. Students’ overall grades: Lecturers are required to submit students’ overall grades as part of
JAPRI’s Monitoring and Evaluation process. By submitting the grades, JAPRI and the lecturers can
gain an understanding of how much the students have progressed in absorbing the
entrepreneurship knowledge delivered to them by the lecturers.
3. Photo documentation of entrepreneurship training: To assist JAPRI’s monitoring and
evaluation.
4. Contact details of class leaders: Class leaders will be a key point of contact for JAPRI, in
addition to lecturers, to learn first hand about the personal benefits of learning about
entrepreneurship. They can also help JAPRI in mapping students who started their own business
individually or in groups, which can provide valuable data for JAPRI to determine the effectiveness
of its approach to support the creation or the development of businesses.
Overall, UPI and JAPRI see that the collaboration will support the effort in promoting entrepreneurship
as self-employment, both for youth in general and for UPI students specifically. With JAPRI, UPI can also
standardize its entrepreneurship learning materials.
Training of Trainers, UPI Day 1, January 29, 2020
To get to know and to create comfort amongst the participants, JAPRI’s master trainer (MT) started the
first day with an ice breaking session, before introducing the ADDIE (Analysis, Design, Develop,
Implementation, and Evaluate) method as an opening to the training session. The method helped the
lecturerso understand the participant’s profile, design a training program that matches the needs of the
participants, and find the suitable tools to support the training. UPI’s lecturers were then presented with
a training practice, where the MT explained about the 5 important skills for a trainer to have in order to
deliver a good learning session, which are:
1) centered, the trainers act as the source of information for the participants
2) open, trainers must always be open to inputs and feedback from participants
3) aware, trainers must be aware and pay attention to all the participants
4) connected, trainers must be connected and interact with the participants
5) hold, trainers must retain the experience and the knowledge gained from the participants and use
it in future trainings
Day 1 of the training used the first three chapters of the JAPRI Entrepreneurship module that cover the
basics of entrepreneurship, including building the mindset, and motivation for running or starting
businesses. The third chapter talks specifically about business segmenting, targeting, and positioning analysis
to ensure the product sold matches the target consumers. To ensure that the consumers remember their
product, entrepreneurs are encouraged to come up with slogans that are easy to understand, easy to
pronounce, and consistent with the product’s uniqueness and advantage over other products.
Training of Trainers, UPI Day 2, January 30, 2020
The second day of the training of trainers at UPI dove more into applied science theories of
entrepreneurship. Sessions on conducting business analysis and using simple tools were introduced by
JAPRI’s MT. Using simple tools is essential so that youth are able to understand quickly and apply the tools
to their own plans in running or developing businesses.
The first tool is the Pros & Cons analysis, which looks at the skills possessed by the entrepreneur, the
availability of the raw materials, the production capacity in one period. This analysis is especially important
when an entrepreneur is juggling between a few business ideas, as it will help them to decide which one
has more potential. SWOT (Strength-Weakness-Opportunities-Threats) analysis was the second tool
explained by JAPRI’s MT. The results of this analysis will help entrepreneur to set the next step for their
business: holding on, be aggressive, retrenchment, and differentiation. The third tool was the Competitor
Analysis which focuses on external factors that will affect the development of a business. This will help to
measure the potential of one’s product, understand the competitor’s product, and figure out on how to
win the competition in promoting and marketing of the products.
11
After discussing the three tools for conducting business analysis, the MT turned the participants’ focus to
marketing. The MT emphasized that different products and different targets require different marketing
packages. A marketing package contains product, price, place, and promotion. When an entrepreneur
creates a brand, the simpler the name, the easier it is to remember. It is also important to calculate the
production and sales price to ensure that the final cost will contribute to gaining profit. Promoting methods
that are considered to be effective in modern businesses are creating trends through social media or other
channels, so the product become “viral”, and through ways of endorsement, where businesses work with
public figures to promote their products.
To ensure the effectiveness of the training and assess the level of participants’ understanding, JAPRI
conducted micro-teaching sessions as part of the trainings, where participants presented their learning
material delivery to the MT and the other training participants. The two main components measured
during the micro-teaching session were:
a) Learning method, which focused on the presentation skill and interaction of the participants
with an audience.
b) Time Management, which focused on how the participants manage their time in delivering the
topics.

III.2 Entrepreneurship Trainings (ETs) and One Day Business Trainings (ODBTs)
In the second quarter of FY20, JAPRI full implementation continued to implement the ODBT as a strategy
to streamline the delivery of JAPRI’s entrepreneurship trainings completely for its participants. The ODBT
is conducted over one full day (8 hours), mixing methods of delivery such as seminar and talkshow. JAPRI
invites established business practitioners as talkshow guest speakers to share their own expertise and
experiences to motivate and provide insights to the participants. The seminar/lecturing session is delivered
by JAPRI-certified trainers who have completed the JAPRI TOT certification process. ODBT engages
participants in a comprehensive and distributive learning process to build knowledge and skills urgently
needed by young entrepreneurs. Participants are assisted by facilitators during the whole process so they
can absorb the training materials delivered by the speakers.
After taking part in the ODBT, participants are able to develop their own business plans using the Business
Model Canvas, and be able to identify their business’ current challenges and strengths which they will use
to create strategies to improve their businesses.

In Q2, FY20, a total of 6 ODBTs are implemented by JAPRI in several regions across Central and East
Java. To help ensure that the ODBTs are attended by youth that meet JAPRI’s criteria, JAPRI worked with
stakeholders such as local youth communities and HEIs. For Central Java, JAPRI collaborated with EClub
HiYoungpreneur, while for East Java, JAPRI collaborated with the business incubator of University of
Trunojoyo Madura (Inbis UTM), the Pandawa Nusantara youth community, Universitas Negeri Surabaya
(UNESA), and Universitas Negeri Malang (UM). Eclub, UTM, and UM used the same approach of inviting
participants from university students, while Pandawa Nusantara inviteed participants through a grassroots
approach so the participants were more diverse.
As a part of JAPRI’s efforts to provide effective and efficient entrepreneurship trainings for its participants,
ODBTs enable JAPRI to reach more participants in a shorter amount of time while still effectively
delivering the JAPRI entrepreneurship module and providing follow up assistance to help participants start
or improve businesses.

Challenges and Responses to ODBT
Although ODBT assists JAPRI’s effort to conduct entrepreneurship trainings and support its reach to
develop youth businesses, it is not without challenges. A few challenges that JAPRI have identified are:
Venue selection: Identifing a venue that is large enough to hold more than 100 ODBT participants,
and has room for smaller activities and group work, is a challenge. For the first ODBT JAPRI held in
Q2 FY 20, Pandawa Nusantara, one of JAPRI’s partners in organizing ODBTs, chose Kaza Mall as
the location to conduct the training. The selection made the training activity difficult to handle,
because there were too many distractions for the participants.
To respond to this challenge, JAPRI will work with its partners on the provision of venues that are
more ideal for the implementation of the ODBT activities. The venues will consider a number of
components needed for the running of an effective ODBT, which are: spacious, away from
distraction/crowds, well ventilated, and friendly for disabled youth.
Distribution of roles: ODBTs are usually attended by large number of participants, therefore
keeping them engaged and motivated is a challenge. JAPRI created a clear distribution of roles and
responsibilities for the facilitators so that they know when and how they should address participants’
questions and provide clarifications throughout the wole ODBT. This method helps with smooth
delivery of the learning materias and participants interact among themselves and with the facilitators.
Retention of participants: JAPRI faced a a reoccuring challenge with participants drop out caused
by suchfactors like conflicting schedules, personal challenges, and low commitments. JAPRI and its
partners found out that inviting at least double the amount of participants helped address the drop
out ratio, in any case where the number of participants exceeded the number of seats available, JAPRI
will apply the first come first served rule to enroll the participants. This strategy is challenging in the
non-HEI setting, where scheduling for participants tends to be more unpredictable.
To ensure the number of participants are reached, JAPRI will continue its current strategy and engage
more networks of young entrepreneurs associations and communities through its own and partners’
networks.
14
COVID-19 Outbreak: the implementation of ODBT and other JAPRI activities that involve
gathering people face-to-face are postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Because the outbreak
is still ongoing and unpredictable as to when it will be resolved, JAPRI and its partners have not been
able to ascertain a date for the postponed ODBT activities. Internal discussions have been held to
migrate possible activities to an online approach. JAPRI is currently testing a number of approaches
using available online channels like WhatsApp to deliver coaching, mentoring and training sessions.
ODBT – Universitas Negeri Surabaya (UNESA), March 7th, 2020
The training was held at UNESA’s auditorium on March 7, 2020, with 72 UNESA students participated in
the training.
Remarks
This ODBT began with opening remarks from Dr. Anang Kistyanto, S. Sos., M. Sc, Dean of Faculty of
Economics at UNESA. Dr. Anang explained the importance of starting a business from an early age and
how UNESA’s Faculty of Economics will always support its students to run businesses and equip them
through entrepreneurship curricula. Through JAPRI, students are asked to be able to make the most of
every available opportunity to learn to become independent entrepreneurs.
Remarks by Dr. Anang Kistyanto, S. Sos., M. Sc, as the Dean of Faculty of Economics UNESA
JAPRI invited two guest speakers to share and add their insight on business development for UNESA’s
students: Nauval Syaudin, owner of Nauval Pustaka, a publisher of memory books, and Yusdia Puspa, the
owner of Yusdia Photography, a food photography business. Both are UNESA Faculty of Economics alumni.
15
Sharing session with Nauval and Yusdia
The sharing session served as an excellent way to introduce the participants to how to manage a business
while being an active student. Both of the speakers were able to connect with the audience because many
of the challenges they shared were similar to those experienced by the students. In this session, the
facilitators delivered materials from JAPRI’s entrepreneurship module leading to the development of the
Business Model Canvas (BMC), a tool to quickly and easily define and communicate a business
development idea or concept. It is a one-page document which works through the fundamental elements
of a business, structuring a business development idea in a coherent way. The facilitator assisted the
participants in developing their business strategy in the BMC format.
The students were able to grasp the new knowledge. One 20-year-old participant, Miftakul Alfan, who is
a UNESA Faculty of Economics student and the owner of a shoe cleaning business, said: “The topics
presented in this training really refreshed me as an entrepreneur. Very detailed, but very easy to
understand. I know what I have to do with my business. And the keynote speakers’ explanation enlightened
me as an entrepreneur. I am grateful to be able to join this program.”
III.3 Mentoring and Coaching
The COVID-19 outbreak has affected many of the activities that JAPRI planned to conduct during the
second quarter of FY20. Participants who have taken part in an ODBT are eligible to join in the mentoring
sessions, and although some mentoring sessions have been implemented, a large amount of the planned
mentoring has been postponed due to the government of Indonesia’s nationwide appeal to conduct social
distancing to reduce the virus’s spread. JAPRI has since re-strategized possible activities that were
previously conducted face-to-face to be migrated using online channels. Each of JAPRI’s partners is involved
in an approach using online channels that are widely accesible to the participants they are engaging, well
documented, and also a measurement process that will enable JAPRI to evaluate the success rate of the
activities.
A. Mentoring
i. Mentoring for ODBT – UNESA participants, Surabaya
First Mentoring session
JAPRI held two mentoring sessions as a follow up to the ODBT held in UNESA, Surabaya. The first
mentoring session was held at UNESA’s Faculty of Enconomics auditorium on March 8, 2020. for85
16
students. This number was higher than the number of participants who participated in the ODBT itself
due to an increase of interest from UNESA’s students.
The mentoring activity aimed to assist participants in sharpening their skills in calculating production costs,
operational costs, sales targets, break even points, making production process standards, to the
equipments needed to run a business. The topics presented in this mentoring were then used to complete
the business canvas form.
Mentoring session delivered by JAPRI
There were two challenges faced during the first UNESA mentoring session. Participants who had not
taken part in the ODBT needed extra support from JAPRI’s facilitators in order to complete the BMC and
catch up with the other participants. The facilitators gave the new participants flash lessons during coffee
and lunch breaks.
Another challenge was that not all participants ran individual businesses. Some participants ran business in
groups with other participants. Therefore, at the end of the mentoring session, 74 business model forms
were collected from 85 participants. There were 63 participants who ran individual businesses, while 22
participants ran businesses in groups. Of the 22 participants who ran businesses in groups, there were a
total of 11 business groups. JAPRI would have to ensure that participants who have a business group must
agree with their business partners for all business decisions that will be taken while participating in JAPRI.
Second Mentoring session
UNESA’s second mentoring session was held on March 14, 2020. 56 participants attended this session.
Only participants who have attended ODBT, mentoring 1, and submitted a BMC were eligible to
participate.
The purpose of the second mentoring was to help participants to know their monthly profit/loss by
keeping financial records and winning against competitors, using the Blue Ocean Strategy by increasing
value or streamlining costs in business operations and improving the performance of people in the
company.
First, JAPRI explained the concept of financial records keeping. The session looked at how business owners
could assess where their company stood based on their income, expenses, customers, obligations, goals,
and other measurements. Participants learned that keeping financial records up-to-date and accurate is
the best remedy for a business’ financial health. After explaining the benefits of having financial records,
17
JAPRI’s facilitators explained the steps in making financial records and asked participants to make their
own financial records for their businesses.
Participants then learned about the ‘blue ocean strategy’. This strategy involves the simultaneous pursuit
of differentiation and low cost to open up a new market space and create new demand. This makes the
competition irrelevant. During this session, participants learned how to add benefits, create new benefits,
and eliminate or reduce unneeded benefits.
One challenge for this mentoring session was related to participants’ attendance. Some participants who
previously confirmed their registration did not attend and provided no reason, while others couldn’t
attend due to work commitments. Unfortunately, this meant that those participants could not proceed to
the next stage: the business coaching clinic. JAPRI’s facilitators worked with UNESA lecturers to contact
some of the missing students and ask them to attend immediately, therefore reducing the number who
could not proceed.
Participants with businesses reported that after the activity, they felt better equipped to review their
business’ finances and marketing, as well as to make improvements. Fernando Ilham Pratama, 19 years old
and a student at UNESA’s Faculty of Economics UNESA, owns a culinary business, and said: “The topics
in mentoring really enriched me. Especially when Mr. Syafril explained about the blue ocean strategy and
how to achieve the blue ocean position. Very inspiring and worth implementing in my business.”
ii. Mentoring for Entrepreneurs Community, Gresik District, East Java
JAPRI provided business mentoring for communities located in two subdistricts of Gresik District: Gresik
and Wringinanom. The series of activities included mentoring of business models, and business coaching
clinics.
JAPRI activities were held in two batches because the targeted community was separated across the two
sub-districts. It takes one hour by car (55 km) to reach Gresik from Wringinanom and none of the
participants have their own transportation.
First mentoring session
JAPRI held the first mentoring session on March 10, 2020 at a Gresik government office. Twelve
participants attended this session. Meanwhile in Wringinanom, the mentoring was held on March 12, 2020
at the village women’s school in Sumbergede, where 23 participants attended.
The community had not participated in entrepreneurship development activities before. Because of this,
JAPRI focused its mentoring on fundamental knowledge such as building your motivation for running a
successful business as well as more in-depth topics such as creating a business plan using the BMC model.
The first session of the mentoring covered the two topics: ‘Dare to think BIG’ and ‘Business is problem
solving’.
1. Dare to think BIG.
JAPRI explained the importance of dreaming big for entrepreneurs and how to achieve those
dreams. Entrepreneurs must have a 'Growth Mindset' because this mindset shapes the
entrepreneur's ability to grow.
2. Business is problem solving
A good business is a business created to solve consumer problems, not entrepreneurs' problems.
Consumer problems could be needs or wants, and businesses must be able to meet these.
JAPRI also introduced participants to the BMC model.
18
A participant working on an exercise during the Mentoring activity
The challenge for JAPRI in implementing the business mentoring for the community in Gresik was that the
participants’ level of education varied significantly from junior high school to university. To ensure that all
participants got the most out of the mentoring, JAPRI delivered the material slowly and step-by-step, using
simple and relatable business case examples.
Participants were highly enthusiastic and said they felt very appreciative towards JAPRI. The majority of
participants (especially in Wringinanom) realized through the mentoring that they had been selling their
produtcs at prices below or just slightly above the Cost of Goods Sold (COGS), and finally understood
why their businesses are not making profit and seemed to be “running in place”.
One participant, Ema Eliyana, who is 20-year-olds and the owner of a cosmetics business in Gresik, said:
“I’ve gained a lot of knowledge and experience from this mentoring. The details of my business can be
seen through the business model canvas. I can see how the production costs will determine the selling
price of my product. The topics in this mentoring are very interesting and the facilitators are very
communicative.”
Second mentoring session
Because JAPRI received such enthusiasm from entrepreneurs in Gresik, JAPRI delivered the second
mentoring session for them. JAPRI held the second mentoring session on March 15, 2020 in the Family
Planning, Women's Empowerment and Child Protection Agency of Gresik. It focused on participants from
a Gresik sub-district, and nine women were able to attend.).
In this second mentoring session, JAPRI explained the importance of keeping financial records of their
expenses and profits.
19
Second mentoring session in Gresik, East Java
Making financial records was something new and challenging for the majority of the participants. Their
business transactions were mostly un-recorded, because they thought that financial records were only for
large companies and were not useful for the level of business they are running. Not only that, the
participants also explained that they did not understand how to do financial records, meaning they needed
a comprehensive explanation of the benefits of financial records for their business and how to make
financial records. Therefore, the method of delivering practical financial record material with examples of
how to make financial records was very useful for the participants.
iii. Mentoring for ODBT Eclub HiYoungpreneur participants, Surabaya
Eclub HiYoungpreneur, one of JAPRI’s partners in Surabaya, isutilizing its website to deliver the mentoring
activities. Using the website as a platform, the organization uploaded videos on mentoring topics for
participants to watch, after which they take a test to determine their level of understanding. The online
mentoring session takes approximately 60 minutes to complete.
UTM’s business incubator utilized WhatsApp messenger to deliver its mentoring sessions. WhatsApp was
selected because of the participants’ high level of familiarity with it and it does not need high speed internet.
The mentor used written messages and voice notes to deliver their materials while a facilitator moderated
the sessions. After each mentoring, a Q&A session was held so that the mentor and facilitators could
measure the level of understanding from the participants. UTM is planning to use this method of mentoring
until completion on April 6, 2020.
iv. Mentoring for Entrepreneurs Community, Pacitan District, East Java
JAPRI’s business mentoring in Pacitan was held at the Integrated Business Service center of Pacitan (Pusat
Layanan Usaha Terpadu / PLUT), on February 11, 2020. 82 youth participants took part. The purpose of
this mentoring was to:
1. Mentor the participants on creating a business plan using the BMC,
2. Review the participant's business model plan,
3. Prepare for the business inauguration.
The mentoring was also intended to be an initial selection process of participants' commitment that will
continue to participate in future activities from JAPRI such as specific mentoring, and business coachings.
20
Before the mentoring began, JAPRI explained the rights and obligations and the signing of the commitment
contract for the JAPRI program participants.
A. The rights of a JAPRI participant:
1. Receive business coaching clinic sessions
2. Receive business mentoring sessions.
B. The obligations of a JAPRI participant:
1. Be responsible in managing their business,
2. Participate actively in the coaching sessions,
3. Participate actively in the business coaching clinic session organized by JAPRI,
4. Participate actively in business mentoring activities organized by JAPRI and the Cooperative and
MSME office, Pacitan,
5. Create monthly business financial report,
6. Support JAPRI in conducting monitoring and evaluation of the progress of the businesses being
run,
7. Complete all the tasks given and run the action plan that results from the business coaching clinic
session,
Introduction the Rights and Obligations of JAPRI participants
Based on the JAPRI team’s evaluation of the participants’ business plans, some corrections were made and
points re-explained to the participants. JAPRI facilitators assisted the participants to dig deeper and sharpen
their business plans. Some of the common errors in the business plans were:
1. Product description: participants did not specify their products and business activity, so the JAPRI
team found it diffult to classify the business sector. For example, participants with a similar product
(t-shirt) could be in fashion or retail business sector depending on their exact business activity.
2. Target market: participants were inaccurate in choosing the basis of segmentation, meaning that the
selected target market did not suit the product.
3. Characteristics of target market: participants lack awareness in observing the characteristics of the
target market.
4. Target market needs: participants did not explain the needs of the target market from the
characteristics of the target market that has been predetermined.
5. Competitive advantage: participants determined competitive advantage that did not benefit the target
market.
21
6. Positioning: the positioning chosen by the participants for their products did not reflect the
competitive advantage of their products. In addition, the tagline used was not catchy enough for the
target market.
7. Product: participants did not list of all their product variants. This will make it difficult to create
appropriate marketing strategies for their products, since every product variant need different
marketing strategies.
8. Place: participants who did not have a physical point of sales did not specify their marketing channel.
9. Promotion: participants did not clearly explain their promotion strategy, such as the media used and
the duration of posting promotional content.
Review of participant’s business plam by JAPRI’s master trainer
For participants already running their business, they had the opportunity to review their business strategies
using their newly-completed business plans, so they were able to make corrective steps in their business
strategy. For participants who have not started businesses, JAPRI’s team assisted them with the
foundational entrepreneurhsip knowledge they need to start a business immediately.
One participant, 21-year-old Wisnu Dwi Prabowo, a milk business owner, said: “This mentoring session
has strengthened my business strategy. I am able to identify weak points in my business plan and I must
review and revise it again so that my strategy is more in line with the current business competition situation
and my target market demand.”
B. Coaching
Coaching is a key JAPRI’s activity that is crucial to increase the number of P&V youth with new or better
employment through business activites. The business coaching is designed to develop business owners
through the method of asking powerful questions, provision of guidance, support, accountability and
encouragement, which helps and assists business owners to come up with solutions to challenges in their
sales, marketing, management, team building, etc. Coaching sessions are conducted through a one-on-one
consultation between the business owner and JAPRI’s Business Coach. To achieve its target of P&V youth
with new or better employment, JAPRI and local business communities in West Java, Central Java and East
Java have been conducting coaching sessions for the P&V youth to help them to start and develop their
businesses.
22
Business coaching will contribute to a number of JAPRI indicators such as E.G.6-7, which measures the
number of P&V youth accessing JAPRI business coaching and mentoring sessions, and E.G.6-1, which counts
the number of individuals with new or better employment. To be eligible for business coaching sessions,
youth must live in West Java, Central Java and East Java; have an entrepreneurial spirit; have a strong desire
to become an entrepreneur; and are highly committed to participate and complete a minimum of three
business coaching sessions. The sessions aim to be inclusive for people with disabilities.
Business coaching is managed independently by JAPRI’s local coaches, and is monitored and supervised by
JAPRI’s master coaches. The local coaches are free to arrange the coaching schedules, locations, as well
as the time span between each sessions, and they are required to report their coaching schedule and
activities to JAPRI’s master coaches. JAPRI provide online forms for reporting.
Below is the data for business coaching sessions from local coaches for P&V youth in West Java, Central
Java and East Java between January and March 2020:
Business Coaching Sessions delivered to P&V Youth
Regional Number of youth

West Java 50
Central Java 50
East Java 67
i. Business Coaching, West Java
In West Java, JAPRI collaborated with local business communities BMKA Salman and FKP (Forum
Kewirausahaan Pemuda / Youth Entrepreneurship Forum) to reach youth in their networks. In Q2 FY 20,
local coaches coached students from entrepreneurship classes at UPI Bandung. Participants who met the
criteria determined by JAPRI, like having shown the commitment to participate actively and have
completed JAPRI’s series of activities, have developed a business plan, already running a business and
wishes to improve on it, and those who wants to start businesses, were selected to join the program and
were divided into several coaching groups. Each coaching group consisted of 10 people and was
accompanied by one local coach. The participants were grouped based on the sector of their business or
planned business; for example, youths planning to open a fashion business are matched to local coaches
who have experience in the fashion sector.
One major challenge in coaching continues – participants withdrawing from coaching sessions. Despite
JAPRI and local coaches conducting pre-selection of coaching participants (from entrepreneurship
students), in reality many local coaches have difficulties in contacting participants. Some participants
withdrew from the coaching sessions, even though they had already filled out the commitment form to
participate in the proram. There are also conditions which lead to the P&V youths cancelling appointments
at the last minute, such as conflicting schedules and campus activities. JAPRI has collaborated with UPI’s
Rector to make sure the activities can be implemented well, but there is still approximately 20% of
participants who drop out due to reasons beyond JAPRI and UPI’s control.
To overcome the challenge, JAPRI team implemented a strategy to open up opportunities for participants
outside of UPI to take part in the business coaching. In addition, if needed, JAPRI will conduct a business
coaching clinic to help ensure participants and local coaches find an appropriate schedule for conducting
coaching. In Q2 FY 20, a total of 50 youth accessed JAPRI’s business coaching activities. The number of
youth accessing JAPRI’s business coaching and alongside the JAPRI business mentoring will be a good
23
combination of approach that will support JAPRI in reaching its target to create new or improved
businesses (EG. 6-1). Although hindered by the Covid – 19 pandemy, business coaching and mentoring are
amongst the JAPRI’s most adaptive activities that can be migrated into an online activity, although it is
limited to participants that have access to facilities like smart phone and internet connection.
ii. Business Coaching, Central Java
In Central Java, JAPRI has collaborated with the following business communities: Hi!Youngpreneur!, MRUF
ENVOY Alumni, PP Muhammadiyah, HIPMI PT Unnes, CSE UNIKA Soegijapranata, and ID Start-up
Foundation. In Q2 FY 20, these groups encoruaged local youth in their communities to take part in the
JAPRI business coaching activity and conducted open recruitments for both members and non-members
interested in entrepreneurship. The selection process was carried out by referring to the terms and
conditions made by JAPRI. Between January and March 2020, 49 youth have accessed JAPRI’s business
coaching activities.
For this quarter, Central Java did not experience significant challenges in implementing business coaching.
At first, the coaching strategy in Central Java was to collaborate with UNIKA Soegijapranata. However,
due to the odd semester holiday schedules new classes would only start at the end of March, JAPRI was
unable to go forward with this strategy. JAPRI decided to maximize the recruitment of participants through
the personal network of each of Central Java’s local coaches. Participants from Soegijapranata UNIKA will
be plotted as an additional option if at the end of Q3, the target number of coaching participants has not
been reached.
By June 2020, if these activities run as planned, there will be an additional 200 participants added to the
EG 6-1 indicator achievement for JAPRI.
iii. Business Coaching, East Java
JAPRI collaborated with four stakeholders for the business coaching in East Java. The stakeholders are
UTM Business Incubator, Kebun Inspirasi Community, Jaringan Bisnis (Jarbis) Community, and MRUF
ENVOY Alumnis. Local coaches recruit 67 participants using open recruitment method through their
social media.
Coaching activities in East Java went well. The only challenge was that because half of the local coaches
come from Inbis UTM, and participants are from university entrepreneurship courses, they were only able
to start coaching sessions in early February due to the odd semester holiday. Local coaches will continue
providing coaching between March and June 2020.
Business Coaching Clinic
Before coaching sessions, every coachee arranged a plan to decide their coaching objectives and the topics
to be discussed in each session. During the sessions, JAPRI’s coaches ask about the goals the coachees
want to achieve at the end of the session. They then discuss the coachee’s current situation, including the
challenges they are facing and the conditions they want to achieve, before coaches guide their coachees
to talk about possible solutions they could implement.
When wrapping-up the session, coachees are asked to develop an action plan. In the following session,
JAPRI’s coaches assess the impact of the coachees’ actions on their business. It is hoped that through the
JAPRI coaching sessions, the coachees can find their own way to achieve their business goals. The coaching
session uses a question and answer method with a maximum duration of 60 minutes per session.
24
a. Business Coaching Clinic, Pacitan, East Java
The first business coaching clinic session in Pacitan was conducted over two days, with 7 sessions per day,
on March 3-5, 2020. A total of 59 participants took part in this business coaching clinic, which was run by
two of JAPRI’s master coaches and supported by five volunteer coaches from Cocodev (Coaching
Community for Development). Cocodev is a voluntary organization established by coaches from Coaching
Indonesia to disseminate the benefits of coaching to the people of Indonesia. The activity was also attended
by JAPRI’s local coaches as observers. It was hoped that after the JAPRI program ends in Pacitan, the local
coaches would be able to continue to implement the coaching for entrepreneurship programs in Pacitan.
The JAPRI team faced several challenges with the business coaching clinic sessions. One was the
communication abilities of coaches – some participants were less active in speaking to coaches because
they did not feel confident enough to explain their business conditions. This meant that the communication
was not two-way, as the coaching sessions should be.
To overcome this challenge, the coaches stopped the session and reminded the coaches that that the
coaching session is a session where the coach will assist the participants in developing their business, so
active communication is needed from the participants to ensure the coach has a clear picture of the
situations faced by participants in developing business.
Another challenge related to weather and geographical issues, with some participants arriving late due to
heavy rain and the fact that they live far away from the coaching venues. This meant that some sessions
were rushed, so the coach and coachee agreed to discuss the issues more in-depth in the next session.
Business coaching clinic session in Pacitan, East Java
Due to COVID-19, the second and third business coaching clinics in Pacitan will be held after conditions
have improved and become conducive to allow activities that involve gathering people.
Participants felt that the business coaching clinic was very beneficial for them. One participant, 30-year-
old Yulian Diqi Dwiaksara, a bakery owner from Pacitan, said: “The business coaching clinic session gave
25
me the media to share and find solutions to my business problems, so that I no longer feel alone in trying
to figure out how to manage my business challenges. The coach who assisted me was very patient to guide
me in mapping my business problems and making an action plan. I am now much more confident to run
my business."
b. Business Coaching Clinic, Gresik, East Java
Similar to the business coaching session in Pacitan, JAPRI also held one in Gresik, East Java, that provided
coaching for women entrepreneurs. The clinic was held following the second mentoring session, also with
nine participants. Four coaches were involved, each mentoring 2 or 3 participants.
Business coaching clinic, in Gresik district, Gresik, East Java
One clinic participant, 23-year-old Tri Rohamatul Agustin, a salon owner, said: "The business coaching
clinic session that I have participated in has opened my eyes that there is something wrong in my business.
My coach at the time, assisted me to find out about my mistakes in running my business. Eventually I
learned that there were some services in my salon that I did not fully optimize. I only focus on one service,
smoothing. Though there are several other services such as haircut, creambath, and toning that are actually
potential, but I do not optimize as much as possible. My coach also assisted me to make an action plan so
that I could optimize other services."
JAPRI W-GDP (Women’s Global Development and Prosperity)
In the second quarter of FY20, the COVID-19 pandemic has caused numerous setbacks for project
impelementation. As for the full implementation phase, the JAPRI W-GDP entrepreneurship trainings for
women, gender training for men, and other planned activities have been put on hold.
Despite such conditions, prior to the outbreak, JAPRI W-GDP implemented some key activities;
26
1. Introduction of JAPRI W-GDP in Trenggalek, East Java. The introduction was conducted on two
different occasions: the first to the Regent of Trenggalek and the second to the Organization of
Regional Offices of Trenggalek District, cooperating with Social Office and Women Empowerment
and Children Protection Office of Trenggalek District.
2. Implementation of JAPRI W-GDP TOT on February 25-27 continued with entrepreneurship trainings
for young women entrepreneurs in Trenggalek, East Java.
3. Finalization and printing of the gender training modules for male participants,
A. Training of Trainers, Trengalek, East Java
JAPRI held its first ToT for the W-GDP initiative in Trenggalek, East Java on February 25-27. The ToT
aimed to establish JAPRI certified trainers in Trenggalek who are able to deliver JAPRI’s entrepreneurship
modules to P&V young women through entrepreneurship development training. For W-GDP, JAPRI
collaborated with Dinsos P3A (Office of Social Service, Child Protection, and Women Empowerment) of
Trenggalek District to recruit trainers as well as the Regent of Trenggalek, Mr. Muhammad Nur Arifin
himself, to promote the open recruitment on his social media accounts. With a total 93 people registered,
40 participants were selected to attend:
Before the training, JAPRI held a technical meeting with participants at the Trenggalek PKK Building to
discuss details of the training, such as content, responsibilities and benefits.
Trenggalek ToT technical meeting
The ToT was conducted over three days and was officially kicked off by Mr. Eddy Wahyu Santoso, the
Secretary of Dinsos P3A. Aside from learning the regular JAPRI module training of trainer material, the
trainers were also introduced to gender perspectives which emphasize strengthening gender equality to
support women entrepreneurs.
Introducing gender perspectives is important as it helps to:
a) explain the goals of gender equality training for men and the benefits it will bring for them and for the
women
b) identify how familiar the trainers are with gender equality perspective,
c) increase the participants’ understanding towards the concept of gender and sex and their differences,
d) strengthen the confidence of the participants that gender equality perspective should be developed
in men and women’s life, so that their life become more harmonious and prosperous,
e) increase the participants understanding to maintain gender values when facilitating the entrepreneur
training so the training does not contradict gender equality principals,
27
f) develop the participants’ ability to know the examples of contradictive values with the gender equality
principals in daily life.
After the delivery of the gender perspective learning material, JAPRI identified the followingissues:
a) Generally, the participants do not have a clear understanding about gender and sex concepts and are
not able to differentiate between the two. This is because the trainers never received trainings on
gender. This is a plus point as well as a challenge for JAPRI because this provides an excellent
opportunity to establish a group of trainers in Trenggalek who are able to deliver an entrepreneurship
training that is gender sensitive, while the challenge is the extra effort must be taken to build the
trainers’ gender knowledge.
b) Tardiness of the participants is still a challenge; a number of the participants did not come on time
and some did not complete the training. This made the transfer of knowledge to these participants
ineffective, but even though this is a challenge, JAPRI already has a good number of committed trainers
to deploy and deliver its entrepreneurship training to women youth participants in Trenggalek. To
reduce the number of tardiness JAPRI will work with the stakeholders to make sure that the
participants understand the schedule of the training activities and select participants who would not
have conflicting schedules by coordinating with the organizer and also contacting the participants
directly or through briefings.
Q&A between JAPRI’s Master Trainer with the training participant
For the micro-teaching session, the training participants were divided into two groups and separated in
two different rooms to conduct one-on-one practice. Learning from previous ToT implementation, each
group of participants and master trainers could focus more on this session since they would not be
distracted by the other group’s activity. Mrs. Novita Hardini, the chairwomen of TP PKK Trenggalek
District and the wife of the Regent of Bupati, came by to give closing remarks to the ToT and stressed
the importance of respecting and empowering women especially those who are poor and vulnerable.
The main challenge for ToT in the community where most participants came from different institutions
was ensuring their full attendance in all sessions of ToT. Since the training was held on working days, some
participants asked for permission to come late or leave early to attend to their other responsibilities. This
became the main lesson learned for next ToT: to hold the training on the weekend so participants can
fully attend. Despite the challenges, by the end of three days, JAPRI ensured the commitment and readiness
28
of 40 business trainers to give trainings to young women in Trenggalek area based on the agreed schedule
in their action plans.
B. W-GDP Entrepreneurship Trainings, Trengalek, East Java
JAPRI’s ET is a follow up activity after the completion of the ToT. JAPRI trainers who previously
participated in ToT are required to deliver JAPRI entrepreneurship modules to young women in their
community. The trainers are required to select and recruit participants for ET who meet the JAPRI W-
GDP criterias, which are:
a) Women aged 18-29 years old,
b) Currently running a business or wishing to start a business soon,
c) Never participated in any USAID JAPRI activity before.
To provide a more focused delivery of the ET, participants were divided into two groups: participants with
businesses, and participants who have not yet established their businesses. This was done to emphasize
different entrepreneurial concepts in the JAPRI entrepreneurship module so that the material is suitable
to the participants’ needs. Participants were taught essential entrepreneurship knowledge from the JAPRI
entrepreneurship module and at the end of training, participants submitted their business plans created
using the BMC.

Overall, 81 young women participated in JAPRI’s ET in this quarter. JAPRI was unable to continue with
the implementation of ET in March due to COVID-19. All ET activities are currently on hold and are
planned to start again after the pandemic is over. JAPRI is currently discussing the possible migration of its
activities from direct field implementation to using online channels temporarily.
From the ETs conducted, JAPRI W-GDP learned that outdoor location for training sessions are not always
a good option. Two of the ETs conducted at Warmus CA Café are located outdoors, which meant
participants were unable to see the slides properly since the lighting was too bright and the sounds of cars
and motorcycles were distracting. For future field ET implementation, JAPRI will make sure to coordinate
and ensure with the trainers that proper selection of venues are made before sessions are held.
Other Activities JAPRI Full Implementation
A. Stakeholders Meetings
i. Meeting with Faculty of Economics Universitas Negeri Surabaya (UNESA),
Surabaya, East Java, January 24-25, 2020
During the meeting, the possibility of engaging UNESA with the implementation of JAPRI’s ODBT for

from JAPRI and Dra. Hj. Anik Lestari Andjarwati, M.M. (Head of the Entrepreneurship Development
Center UNESA) and Putri Rizqi (UNESA student). As a result of the meeting it was agreed that JAPRI and
UNESA will collaborate to deliver entrepreneurship trainings through the ODBT activity to around 100
of UNESA’s students. UNESA will promote this activity on campus and will recruit participants that are
entrepreneurs or interested in becoming entrepreneurs. Initially, the schedule was as follows:
a. One Day Business Training, Saturday, March 7, 2020
b. Mentoring 1, Sunday, March 8, 2020
c. Mentoring 2 + pre-coaching, Saturday, March 14, 2020

e. Business Coaching Clinic 2, Saturday, April 18, 2020
f. Business Coaching Clinic 3, Saturday, May 9, 2020
30
Due to COVID-19, the coaching clinics were postponed.
Another topic discussed in the meeting was the plan to implement JAPRI’s TOC in Surabaya. UNESA
received three slots to attend the training of coaches and in return they will provide coaching to at least
10 students who have businesses.
On the 25th of January, JAPRI in turn visited UNESA to met with Dra. Hj. Anik Lestari Andjarwati, M.M.
(Head of the Entrepreneurship Development Center UNESA) and Dr. Susanti, S.Pd., M.Si. (Vice Dean II
of Faculty of Economics UNESA) to discuss further the technical preparations of the ODBT. Duringthis
meeting, JAPRI and UNESA agreed on a number of items that will be provided to ensure the effectiveness
of the ODBT:
1. UNESA will provide a venue for JAPRI to conduct its activities along with additional facilities like air
conditioning, projectors, and loud speakers,
2. JAPRI will be responsible for the delivery of the ODBT and will provide training kits and snacks.
ii. Meeting with Faculty of Economics Universitas Negeri Malang (UM), February 11 and
24, 2020
During the initial meeting with UM, a JAPRI discussed thepossibility of engaging the Faculty of Economics
UM in implementing the JAPRI ODBT for UM students. The meeting was held in the meeting room of the
Faculty of Economics UM, on February 11, 2020, with JAPRI representatives, Dr. Hadi Sumarsono and Dr.
Agus Hermawan (Vice Dean, Faculty of Economics UM), Ahmad Muhdor, Afwan Hamri, Dudung Ma’ruf
Nuris, Harinto, Vika Annisa Q. and Putra Hilmi P. (Lecturers, Faculty of Economics UM).
UM welcomed the JAPRI ODBT activity with enthusiasm, as UM sees that the collaboration will be highly
beneficial for its owns programs on campus. Duringthe meeting it was agreed that UM will assist JAPRI in
recruiting a minimum of 100 students to participate in the ODBT. Another main take away from the
meeting was that UM is planning a two-day business expo and thought that with the addition of JAPRI, the
activity will highly compliment each other very well. UM also expressed their interest in participating in
JAPRI’s TOT so that they are able to deliver JAPRI’s entrepreneurship module on their own and can adapt
both the module and method of approach. This will dramatically increase JAPRI’s potential for
sustainability.

37
C. JAPRI W-GDP introduction in Blitar, East Java, 2020
i. Introduction to stakeholders in Blitar, East Java, 26-27, 2020
To follow up on the preparation meetings conducted in Blitar in the previous quarter, JAPRI held another
series of more technical meetings for the implementation of JAPRI W-GDP in FY 20. The introduction in
Blitar focused on the on-boarding of potential stakeholders and partners that JAPRI W-GDP can work
with and prepare for the project’s technical preparations.
ii. Meeting with PERTAKINA Blitar, February 26, 2020
On February 26, 2020, JAPRI met with PERTAKINA (a non-governmental organization engaged in the
sector of Indonesian labor empowerment), in Dayu Village, Nglegok Sub-district, Blitar. The meeting was
attended by PERTAKINA’s management, Mrs. Sulistiyaningsih, Mr. Sucipto and Mr. Agung. During the
meeting, JAPRI was able to identify the potential benefits of working with PERTAKINA to implement the
W-GDP initiative. By working with PERTAKINA, JAPRI will be able to access their female members (and
their families) aged 18-19 who are entrepreneurs or interested in becoming entrepreneurs. Based on this,
PERTAKINA representatives should take part in JAPRI’s TOT and TOC.
On February 26, JAPRI met with LPPD (Village Women's Development Organization) in Ngadengan
Village, Tegalrejo Sub-dsitrict, Blitar. During this visit, MRUF’s team met with LPPD manager Mrs. Fulva,
to see how JAPRI could engage LPPD’s members as entrepreneurship development participants. Like
PERTAKINA, JAPRI sees that working with LPPD is strategic because of their large number of women
members that met JAPRI’s criteria. Mrs. Fulva hopes that the W-GDP initiative can be implemented for
members of LPPD.
iii. Meeting with Bappeda Blitar, February 27, 2020
Blitar has long been a part of JAPRI’s journey in implementing entrepreneurship development activities.
The local government of Blitar have also adapted JAPRI’s approach and learning module in its own
programs. JAPRI and USAID see that continuing the collaboration with Blitar will be highly beneficial
because Blitar has shown a high degree of interest and commitment crucial to achieving both their and
JAPRI’s goals. To start the W-GDP initiative in Blitar District, on February 27, 2020, JAPRI had the
opportunity to meet with representatives of Blitar’s Planning Agency and technical offices. The meeting
was led by Mr. Roni Arif Satriawan (Head of Economic Affairs of Blitar Planning Gency), and Nino Rianditya
Putra (JAPRI’s DcoP).
JAPRI W-GDP introduction with Blitar’s government’s Planning Gency and technical offices
38
The results of the discussion areas follows:
1. JAPRI conveyed to the forum that it will need 46 participants to be included in the JAPRI W-GDP
TOT, with an open age range but prioritizing female participants aged 18 – 29 years old who are
entrepreneurs or interested in becoming entrepreneurs. Pak Roni suggested that if government
technical offices have activities or programs that might be a good match for JAPRI W-GDP, they could
support them through mixing and matching the activities. For example, activities run by the Office of
Village Development, which aim to develop village economies through entrepreneurship, would
benefit from JAPRI’s support
2. JAPRI was planning to hold a TOC and invite three representatives from Blitar However, due to
COVID-19. the training was proposed for March 17-19.
Overall, both JAPRI and the Blitar government believe that continued collaboration will bring many positive
outcomes for the project and ultimately for Blitar’s economy. To formalize the collaboration, Blitar’s
government requests that there should be a Memorandum of Understanding between itself and JAPRI, as
a form of documentation that the two have engaged in further partnership. The coordination will continue
for preparations and also strategies that are possible to take during the Covid – 19 outbreak.
IV. Result Againts the Monitoring, Evaluation, and Learning
(MEL) Plan
JAPRI received a new directive from USAID to add the following five F indicators for W-GDP activity:
EG.6-11, EG.6-12, EG.6-13, EG.6-14, EG.6-15. JAPRI is in the process of developing a new PIRS
(Performance Indicator Reference Sheets) for EG.6-11 since the definition of this indicator needs
clarification. For indicators EG.6-12 to EG.6-15, the definitions are similarto the existing JAPRI W-GDP F
indicators (EG.6-2, EG.6-3, EG.6-4, EG.6-5). What distinguishes the new and existing indicators is the unit
of measurement itself; for example, EG.6-2 to EG.6-5 are measured in whole numbers, while EG.6-12 to
EG.6-15 use percentages. JAPRI is not required to add EG.6-12 to EG.6-15 into PIRS separately, but is
required to enter the new indicators as well as the targets into the Performance Plan and Report (PPR).
PPR data is critical to measure USAID’s contribution to the W-GDP Initiative’s goal. With this in mind,
JAPRI calculates EG.6-12 to EG.6-15 in percentages that are converted into numbers for EG.6-2 to EG.6-
5, then reports the achievements in quarterly reports and PPR. In Q2 FY 20, JAPRI W-GDP began to
present and report the achievements under EG.6-2, EG.6-3, EG.6-13 and EG.6-14, collected from ODBT
and ET activities.
The two JAPRI phases have been implemented in parallel since Q1 FY 20. JAPRI not only monitored
progress against the 10 indicators of JAPRI Full Implementation, but also the 8 indicators of JAPRI-W-
GDP. Hence, JAPRI will collect the achievement of 18 indicators until September 2020, then after
September 2020 only 8 indicators for W-GDP will be collected by JAPRI.
As of Q2 of FY 20, JAPRI Full Implementation achieved 6 out of 10 KPI targets, including 3 out of 6 JAPRI’s
F indicators that exceeded the target numbers. The achieved F indicators are EG.6-2, ES.2-1, and Youth-
1. JAPRI is on track to achieve remaining targets of the F indicators (EG.6-1, EG.6-3, Youth Power) and
one custom indicator by September 2020. The JAPRI key activities such as entrepreneurship training,
coaching, and mentoring will contribute to each remaining indicator. In this quarter, JAPRI W-GDP has
been directly engaging beneficiaries in the program area, including carrying out the first ToT, ODBT, and
ET in Trenggalek, East Java. The result of these activities contributed to JAPRI’s KPIs reported in Q2.
Activities this quarter contributed to the achievement of three F indicators: EG.6-3, EG.6-2, and ES.1-12.
39
Monitoring Tools
The two JAPRI phases (JAPRI full implementation and JAPRI W-GDP) use the same monitoring tools.
After every activity, JAPRI stores the attendance lists of training and coaching participants from the JAPRI-
certified trainers and coaches. JAPRI adapted its data collection tools during Q2 of FY 20 due to COVID-
19. Below are are the data collection tools used by JAPRI to ensure program activities can meet the 18
JAPRI KPIs:
▪ Business growth survey, deployed at least one month after P&V youth completed their training
classes or coaching and mentoring sessions (smartphone-based electronic survey). This is used to
collect the data for the indicator F.EG. 6-1 (Full Implementation), F. EG. 6-4 (W-GDP), F. EG. 6-5
(W-GDP).
▪ Gender training pre and post-test survey, deployed before and after male beneficiaries completed
the gender training sessions. This is used to collect the data for the indicator F.GNDR-4 (# W-
GDP)
▪ Self-efficacy post-test survey, deployed through Kobo application after P&V youth completed the
two-day business motivation workshop (BMW) (smartphone-based electronic survey). This is
used to collect the data for the indicator Youth Power. (# Full Implementation)
▪ Entrepreneurship training/course/seminar/workshop/gender training participants’ database
collected by JAPRI itself and the JAPRI-certified trainers. This is used to collect the data for the
indicator Youth-1 (Full Implementation) and the F.EG. 6-3. (# Full Implementation & W-GDP)
▪ Improved entrepreneurial skills test, deployed after P&V youth completed their entrepreneurship
training/course (smartphone-based electronic test). This is used to collect the data for indicator
F.EG. 6-2. (# Full Implementation & W-GDP)
▪ Mood meter matrix, filled in by P&V youth after they completed the two-day BMW. This is
collected by JAPRI itself to identify P&V youth’s level of satisfaction toward the quality of the
BMW. (# Full Implementation)
▪ Business coaching logs and mentoring participants’ database, collected by JAPRI itself and the
JAPRI-certified coaches. This is used to collect the data for the indicator youth accessing coaching
and mentoring sessions. (# Full Implementation)
▪ HEIs, local government, local community organizations, private sector database, consisting of data
collected by JAPRI itself. This is to collate the data for the indicator relating to HEIs receiving
capacity development support and other stakeholders delivering training and coaching to P&V
youth. (# Full Implementation)
▪ ToT and ToC participant database, consisting of data collected by JAPRI itself. This is used to
collate the data for the indicator certified-persons completing JAPRI ToT and ToC. (# Full
Implementation & W-GDP).

Results Against Performance Indicators
JAPRI Full Implementation (FY 19 – FY 20)
Goal: Number of individuals with new or better employment of USG-assisted workforce development
programs (F.EG.6-1)
New or better employment is defined as P&V youth who start or improve their businesses after taking
part in one of JAPRI’s capacity building activitiess, such as a business training, course, and coaching or
mentoring session. A business is determined as “new” once there is a financial transaction, while an
“improved” business is defined as one that shows progress or an increase in six business growth variables.
These variables are:
1. Growth in customers
2. Growth in gross sales (revenue)
3. Growth in employment
4. Growth in transactions
5. Growth in production capacity
6. Growth in asset ownership
In addition, to measure the six variables, the youth beneficiaries were also asked to narrate report their
personal improvement qualitatively after receiving JAPRI capacity development support. This self-
assessment uses a qualitative measurement that enables beneficiaries to measure individuals’ perceptions
of whether they have improved and learned relevant information applicable to their businesses. These
improvements include, for example, improving packaging of products, enlarging their current network, and
improving business financial reports.
Based on data collected in the three provinces (West Java, Central Java, and East Java), 434 P&V youth
obtained new and better employment in various sectors after completing JAPRI-supported assistance
programs, such as trainings, workshops, coaching, and mentoring. It is interesting to note that beneficiaries
have not just new and better employment, but also experienced a qualitative improvement in their
entrepreneurial knowledge and skills. That is, although they may have not yet started a business,
beneficiaries now have a strong understanding of the importance of financial reports, standard operating
procedures, business plans, marketing strategies and so on.
This achievement reflects that 434 P&V youth experienced progress in their business, including 364 with
improved businesses and 70 with new businesses. From six variables indicating a business growth, 45% of
434 youth reported a growth in revenue, 25% reported increased transactions, and 20% reported a growth
in capacity production, although less than 10% reported an increase in employment and assets.

Out of the 434 new and improved businesses, 240 were women-owned businesses and 193 were men-
owned businesses. JAPRI always aims for a gender balance among participants. However, the number of
youth businesses started or improved were dominated by female participants in both West Java and East
Java. The largest JAPRI activity contributing to female involvement is ODBT, followed by business coaching
and mentoring sessions.
In Q2 FY 20, JAPRI reached 15% of the FY 20 target. This result indicated an improvement compared to
the previous quarter which only reached 7% of the FY 20 target. The EG.6-1 achievements would have
been higher than 15%, as JAPRI had planned to run a series of mentoring sessions in March to assist youth
in their business processes. Our past experiences show that mentoring activities significantly contribute
to achieving an improvement of youth businesses. However, the mentoring sessions had to be postponed
due to COVID-19. JAPRI is working to overcome this and keep running activities by using online platforms,
telephone calls, and WhatsApp messenger.
During Q2 FY 20, beneficiaries were accompanied by JAPRI-certified coaches and facilitated by a mentor
to improve their skills and knowledge on running businesses. The coaches empowered youth by
monitoring the progress of their businesses and providing ongoing coaching, while the mentors shared
their experience and networks for beneficiaries to access opportunities to develop their businesses. The
EG.6-1 achievements in Q2 were also influenced by coaching sessions. JAPRI coaching sessions allowed
JAPRI-local coaches to closely interact with the beneficiaries. Business coaches provided P&V youth with
a lot of inspiration by assisting them to understand strength, weakness, potential, and opportunity in their
own business. In the context of business coaching, it has been an important part of the process to achieve
an improvement in youth businesses. This interaction had a positive effect on the beneficiaries’ business

Gross sales are the overall sales of a business, unadjusted for costs incurred in generating those sales. As
the table above illustrates, the highest achievement in gross sales of the culinary sector was IDR 20 million
(US $1250) from a culinary business selling bakso (meatball soup). It is a business owned by a JAPRI
beneficiary from Pacitan, East Java, which also has most increased in other three variables respectively:
customers increased to 1800, transactions rose to 1900, and a massive growth production capacity
increase by producing about 28.000 meatballs. The largest demand of Mustika’s business mostly came from
private events, such as weddings, family gatherings, and government meetings. Meanwhile, the highest
increase in asset ownership was experienced by Nurul Hakiki, the owner of a handicraft business from
Pamekasan (Madura), which reached assets of Rp 45.000.000.
The graphic above shows the number of youth businesses sustained by different sectors. The data is a
compilation of businesses in West Java, Central Java, and East Java during Q2 FY 20. The trend has not
changed from the previous quarter where the culinary, service, and fashion sectors still topped the list,
with 151, 85, and 55 youths involved respectively.
In the culinary, youth tended to start businesses based on their personal interest in creating new snacks
from local raw materials such as bananas and chicken feet. Fashion businesses, meanwhile, utilized
Instagram and e-commerce websites to find raw materials or wholesale products, identify current trends,
and reach potential customers. JAPRI beneficiaries with fashion businesses usually buy products from big
cities or online wholesalers and resell them locally, using social media to promote their products to family

and friends. JAPRI beneficiaries are generally small sellers with limited financial capital, so their bravery in
starting a new business by maximizing available resources is a big step for themselves as well as for JAPRI.
IR 1: Number of P&V youth reporting self-efficacy at the conclusion of USG-assisted training/programming
(Youth Power)
There is no data to be reported under this indicator as JAPRI did not hold any business motivation
workshops (BMW) in this quarter. The data for Youth Power indicator is collected after youth participate
in the workshop. The remaining target of FY20 will be achieved in the nextsix months.
IR 1: Number of P&V youth trained in social or leadership skills through USG assisted program (Youth
Indicator)
Youth trained is defined as youth who participate in JAPRI trainings or courses, including
entrepreneurship trainings, public lectures, and public seminars hosted by third parties, regardless of
whether the youth complete the training. For example, if a public seminar is held for two days, and a
participant attends only one day of training, they are still counted as trained in social or leadership skills.
In these activities, JAPRI master trainers were invited to explain an entrepreneurship topic that is
applicable for young people, such as exploring business ideas, marketing, and developing financial plans.
The trainers delivered an interactive training with two-way communication, presentation, and sharing
experiences. These events aim to strengthen participants’ entrepreneurial mindsets, improve their
business management skills, and enrich their entrepreneurial knowledge.
In this reporting period, this indicator calculated the number of P&V youth who attended the following
activities:
- entrepreneurship course in Universitas Pendidikan Indonesia (UPI) and Institut Teknologi Adhi
Tama Surabaya (ITATS);
- entreprenuership seminar and public lecture: Institut Teknologi Adhi Tama Surabaya (ITATS),
Universitas Madura (UNIRA)
- one-day business training (ODBT) in ECLUB Solo, ECLUB Yogyakarta, ECLUB UIN Sunan,
Pandawa Nusantara Surabaya, Business Incubator of Universitas Trunojoyo Madura (UTM).
The entrepreneurship course used the JAPRI module as a learning basis but each major used different
chapters of the module so the students do not always study the same chapters of JAPRI entrepreneurship
module as their friends, especially if they registered in different classes/department. For instance, the
entrepreneurship or business education major used all chapters of the JAPRI module, while other majors
may use only one or two chapters relevant to their study.

JAPRI trained 1749 youth in social or leadership skills in Q2 FY20. Students who received JAPRI materials
in entrepreneurship courses are also counted as youth trained in social or leadership skills. This number
consists of 603 youth trained in West Java, 435 youth trained in Central Java, and 711 youth trained in
East Java. These activities have benefited both urban and rural youth by assisting them to develop their
understanding of entrepreneurship.

This indicator is defined as youth who have fully completed JAPRI trainings. Completing the workforce
development program means that the P&V youth has met 100% completion of at least one of JAPRI’s
trainings, either directly implemented by JAPRI or its stakeholders. In this case, JAPRI stakeholders are
those who completed the JAPRI ToT.
In this reporting period, participants who have completed the entrepreneurship training delivered by the
JAPRI-certified trainers are counted in this indicator. The JAPRI-certified trainers are local community and
private sector representatives, business owners, and university lecturers who are committed to deliver
the JAPRI module to young people in their respective areas. They delivered the trainings for young people
in West Java, Central Java, and East Java to improve their skills and knowledge in entrepreneurship.
In Q2 FY 20, 1598 youth completed the JAPRI trainings delivered by stakeholders in West Java, Central
Java, and East Java. In West Java, 603 youth completed an entrepreneurship course delivered by UPI
lecturers. In Central Java, 435 students completed the ODBT at ECLUB Solo and ECLUB Yogyakarta. In
East Java, 560 youth completed trainings through ODBT in UTM, UNUSA, Pandawa Nusantara, ECLUB
UIN and through entrepreneurship courses delivered by UNUSA and ITATS lecturers.
The JAPRI trainers provided beneficiaries with technical guidance on how to develop business plan
proposals in a more practical approach. The trainers used an interactive method where they were required
to adapt to the level of knowledge and skills of the participants and also aimed to assist the participants to
create a business plan. The two main sessions delivered in this training are as follows:
• motivation for starting a business
• the technical skills of basic entrepreneurship, which was divided into four themes:
- finding business idea
- production and its financial projection
- marketing
- financial plan

Participants learned about opportunities to create jobs and contribute to their community. Through group
discussions, participants also learned about business planning, including how to understand and create a
BMC. At the end of the training, each group presented what they will do for their businesses in accordance
with their BMC. The entrepreneurship trainings encouraged participants to be positive for both themselves
and their communities.
A challenge in collecting data for this indicator was related to university responsiveness. Specifically, the
main issue was obtaining a copy of the course attendance list. This is because attendance lists were
submitted and kept in the universities’ administrative offices at the end of each semester, but when
requested, the appointed university coordinator did not supply them to JAPRI. Eventually, JAPRI received
the data required after several attempts and finally approaching course lecturers directly. This proved to
be an effective method but was inefficient. The program should retrieve this data early in the semester to
ensure that all data are collected on time to be presented in reports.
Sub-IR.1.1 Number of individuals with improved skills following completion of USG-assisted workforce
development programs (F.EG.6-2)
This indicator is defined as youth who have improved skills after completing JAPRI’s trainings. Completing
the workforce development program means that P&V youths have completed 100% of at least one of
JAPRI’s trainings, both directly carried out by JAPRI and its stakeholders, such as the entrepreneurship
training or course.
In this reporting period, JAPRI counted the number of participants with improved skills through
entrepreneurship courses held at universities, and ODBTs held at UNUSA and Universitas Muhammadiyah
Surabaya. These activities were delivered by JAPRI stakeholders. An improved skill is measured by utilizing
a business plan; that is, how participants created components for the BMC, such as information on
production, marketing, or finances. JAPRI provided the business plan worksheet through a Google form

sent to participants via WhatsApp. The participants wrote their business plans and submitted them to
JAPRI.
1387 out of 1598 youth (87%) that completed JAPRI trainings indicated an improvement of skills following
the entrepreneurship training. Several measures are used to calculate improved skills by using an online
business plan and BMC. In this period, most beneficiaries developed their plan based on the differentiation
of products offered as well as their marketing strategy. Differentiation of products refers to variants in
products produced to meet customer preferences. Marketing refers to the strategies and methods used
to promote and sell products to various customers.
The data was collected by deploying an online business plan form which contained information on business
product, marketing strategy, and financial plan. In the business plan form, participants wrote their business
idea related to at least one of these three variables. Each variable itself has the following scoring ranges:

Sub.IR 1.1: Percentage of P&V youth have satisfaction with the quality of trainings
There is no data to be reported under this indicator as JAPRI did not hold the business motivation
workshop (BMW) in this quarter. The data for this indicator is collected after youth participate in the
workshop. Although JAPRI did not reach a result to contribute for this indicator, the result was
overachieved in the previous quarter.
Sub.IR 1.2: Number of P&V youth accessing JAPRI business coaching and mentoring sessions
Business coaching and mentoring sessions supported P&V youth in continuing the business process by
assisting them to overcome mental barriers, such as low self-efficacy and lack of confidence, which were
identified as the greatest barriers during the business start-up period. During the period of January to
March, JAPRI continued its coaching and mentoring activities to P&V youth in the JAPRI interventions
areas in West Java, Central Java, and East Java.
The aim of coaching and mentoring process is to assist P&V youth business into a business improvement.
Coaching sessions encouraged the P&V youth unable to step outside of their comfort zone, so they are

able to find a broader perspective in seeing their businesses. Business coaches and business mentors
provided P&V youth a lot of inspiration by assisting P&V youth to understand strength, weakness, potential,
and opportunity in their owned business. In the context of business coaching, it has been an important
part of the process to achieve an improvement in youth businesses. Business coaching helps beneficiaries
to map out business matters and find solutions.

JAPRI-certified coaches completed coaching and mentoring sessions for 287 youth in the Q2 FY20. The
highest number of coaching and mentoring participants was from East Java, with 187 participants. West
Java and Central Java reached 50 participants each of the 287 total youth coached and mentored, 167 were
male and 120 were female. One difference this quarter compared to previous quarters is the gender
balance. Historically, there were more female beneficiaries than male. This quarter, however, there were
more men taking part in all three regions than women, despite local coaches registering an equal number
of men and women during the beneficiaries’ initial registration. JAPRI was unable to identify why this was
the case this quarter.
Mentoring activities were delivered by JAPRI-certified trainers in group sessions. Participants and mentors
discussed the business challenges faced by the participants, as well as business best practice feedback.
Youth who received coaching reported feeling more consistent and confident in running their businesses,
with more perseverance to increase revenue, customers, transaction, and production capacity. The
majority of their businesses became more structured due to having targeted marketing strategies, stable
production, and sound budgeting.

Subsequent mandatory business coaching, JAPRI will continue online business coaching in the Q3 of FY
20. The two methods of business coaching will ensure the action plan made by youth in the previous
coaching session can be well supervised. An action plan itself is included in the coaching log and it is very
useful to be able to monitor the contribution of the business coaching to the accomplishment of the
indicator EG 6.1: number of individuals with new or better employment.
IR 2: Number of host country tertiary education receiving capacity development support with USG
assistance (ES. 2-1)
The data for this indicator is collected after representative of higher education institutions (HEIs) receiving
the trainings. A HEI is only counted once regardless of how many trainings the HEI’s representatives
attended. According to the definition of this indicator, there is no data to be reported under this indicator.
In Q2, only one HEI (UPI) took part in a TOT in January. However, UPI was counted in a previous quarter
so cannot be counted again. Nonetheless, this indicator is overachieved.
Sub.IR 2.1: Number of stakeholders delivering training and coaching to P&V youth after completing JAPRI
training and coaching
There is no data to be reported under this indicator because there were no new JAPRI stakeholders this
quarter. The stakeholders are only counted institutionally once they deliver the JAPRI entrepreneurship
training/course and business coaching to P&V youths, both in universities and communities. In Q2, there
were JAPRI stakeholders delivering materials in ET, coaching, and mentoring to the P&V youth. However,
they were already counted in the previous quarter, so we cannot count them anymore for this reporting
period. The indicator remains overachieved.

Staff certified refers to representatives of educational institutions, local government, and community
groups who have completed JAPRI’s ToT or ToC and received certification. Once they fully complete
either the ToT or ToC, they are certified as a trainer or a coach and become eligible to deliver the JAPRI
module to beneficiaries.
In this reporting period, JAPRI conducted a two-day ToT in January at UPI Bandung, West Java. The total
number of staff certified was 34 people. Participants were divided into groups to practice teaching using
the entrepreneurship materials listed in the JAPRI module. JAPRI master trainers observed practice
teaching during a microteaching session to be implemented in entrepreneurship course in all UPI faculties.
JAPRI expects the lecturers will be able to apply more practical skills so their students can create or
improve their own businesses.
Due to COVID-19 restrictions introduced by the Indonesian Government, JAPRI postponed the ToC and
ToT scheduled for late March at Universitas Malang until the constrains to organize large gatherings are
lifted.

second week of March. JAPRI needs at least one month to collect the data of beneficiaries who start a
new business after they completed the JAPRI training, coaching, or mentoring sessions. A new business is
considered for individuals engaged in commercial activities, such as produce and sell goods and services
for profits.
Goal: Number of individuals with increased earnings following the completion of USG-assisted workforce

who increased earnings of their businesses after they completed the JAPRI training, coaching, or mentoring
sessions. An earning is considered as gross earnings which refer to the amount that a business earns from
the sale of goods or services, before the costs or expenses have been deducted. The target of FY20 will
be achieved in the next quarter.
Goal: Percentage of participants reporting increased agreement with the concept that males and females
should have equal access to social, economic, and political resources and opportunities (F.GNDR-4)
JAPRI has not been able to hold the planned gender training due to COVID-19. The indicator GNDR-4
indicates a mindset changes that male beneficiaries will support a household partnership that leads to the
fair distribution of roles between males and females in domestic work or any responsibilities.
Goal: Number of individuals reporting legalized business
In this quarter, there is no data to be reported under this indicator. JAPRI has not run a data collection
process to list the number of women businesses who had registered to a business license (IUMK/PIRT)
from the local office of SMEs and cooperatives. Once a woman registers her business, they are counted
to this indicator. JAPRI expects to report the achievement of this indicator in the next quarter.
IR 3: Number of individuals who complete USG-assisted workforce development programs (F.EG.6-3)
EG.6-3 collates the data of W-GDP activities. JAPRI does not need to disaggregate data by gender because
only female youth who have fully completed JAPRI trainings can be counted in this indicator. Completing
the workforce development program means that the women youth has met 100% completion of at least
one of JAPRI’s trainings, either directly implemented by JAPRI or its stakeholders. In this case, JAPRI
stakeholders are those who previously participated in the JAPRI ToT.

For FY 20, JAPRI set a target of 2000 women for EG.6-3. JAPRI reached 589 women in Q2.
For the new indicator EG.6-14, this represents 29% of the target. JAPRI does not report EG.6-14
separately, because the definition of this indicator is similar to EG.6-3. However, by considering a new
guidance from USAID, JAPRI presents EG.6-14 achievements as conversions from EG.6-3.
In this reporting period, the women counted were those who completed ODBT and ET held in Trenggalek,
Bangkalan, and Surabaya. The trainings were delivered by JAPRI-certified trainers (local community and
private sector representatives and business owners) who are committed to deliver the JAPRI module to
female youth in their respective areas. Training participants learned about opportunities to create jobs
and make a contribution to their community. The ODBT and ET participants also learned about business
planning, including how to understand and create a BMC. The trainings encouraged participants to be
positive for both themselves and their communities.
The ODBT activities reached 508 women aged 18-29 from the business incubator of Universitas
Trunojoyo Madura (UTM) in Bangkalan, ECLUB of UIN Sunan Ampel and Pandawa in Surabaya. The JAPRI-
certified trainers engaged the participants in a full day session by delivering a comprehensive learning
process to improve knowledge and skills needed by the participants. JAPRI planned to conduct 7 ODBTs
for March, but 3 of 7 sessions had to be postponed due to COVID-19.
ETs were held separately for women who have not started a business and for those who have already
established a business, in order to emphasize different concepts in the JAPRI module as appropriate to
their needs. In Trenggalek, 81 women aged 18-29 participated in ET delivered by three JAPRI-certified
trainers.
Unfortunately, most ET events were planned for March 2020. 39 JAPRI-certified trainers had been listed
to deliver the ETs for 1700 women beneficiaries in Trenggalek. However, due to COVID-19, JAPRI has
been forced to postpone the activities.

development program means that P&V youths have completed 100% of at least one of JAPRI’s trainings,
both directly carried out by JAPRI and its stakeholders, such as the ODBT and ET.
An improved skill is measured by utilizing a business plan; that is, how participants created components
for the BMC, such as information on production, marketing, or finances. JAPRI provided the business plan
worksheet through a Google form sent to participants via WhatsApp messenger. The participants wrote
their business plans and submitted them to JAPRI. A completed BMC indicates improved skills toward an
intermediate that linked to a longer-term workforce outcomes, such as new employment and increased
earnings.
For FY 20, JAPRI set a target of 1200 women for EG.6-2. JAPRI reached 546 women in Q2. This is
equivalent to 45% of the target for indicator EG.6-13, which, due to its similarity to EG.6-2, is not required
to be reported separately.
In this reporting period, JAPRI counted the number of women with improved skills through the ODBT
and ET activities held in Trenggalek, Bangkalan, and Surabaya. 546 out of 589 youth completed JAPRI
trainings indicated an improvement of skills following the entrepreneurship training. The chart above
shows that over 90% of women participants in the three intervention areas indicated improved skills after
receiving the JAPRI entrepreneurship materials. This is a significant achievement considering JAPRI W-
GDP only began the training activities in February 2020. In fact, JAPRI targeted 500 women in Trenggalek
to contribute in this indicator, but unfortunately planned activities had to be cut short due to COVID-19.

Several measures are used to calculate improved skills by using an online business plan and BMC which
contained business product, marketing strategy, and financial plan. In the business plan form, participants
write their business idea related to at least one of these three variables. Differentiation of products refers
to variants in business products produced to meet customer preferences. Marketing refers to the
strategies and methods used to promote and sell products to various customers.
Sub-IR.3.2 Number of education administrators and officials who complete professional development
activities with USG-assistance (F.ES.1-12)
Indicator ES.1-12 counts individuals from JAPRI stakeholders (such as education administrators and
officials) who are involved in the organization, management, operations, and support within education
systems. This refers to a representative from a HEI, local government, or community group who
completed 100% participation in a JAPRI ToT or ToC and receive a JAPRI certificate of completion. Once
they fully complete the ToT or ToC, they are certifed as a trainer or a coach and become eligible to
deliver the JAPRI materials to women beneficiaries. They are counted as education administrators and
officials who gained competencies, such as entrepreneurial knowledge and skills, from JAPRI’s ToT or
ToC.
In this reporting period, from a total of 93 registered individuals, there were 40 participants (30 women
& 10 men) who completed 100% participation in a three-day ToT held in Trenggalek, East Java. Most
participants were member of local communities which committed to delivering the JAPRI module through
entrepreneurship training. To recruit the ToT participants, JAPRI closely collaborated with the Office of
Social Service, Child Protection, and Women Empowerment (Dinsos P3A) of Trenggalek and Regent of
Trenggalek. In the recruitment process, persons with experience in community empowerment were
preferred as training participants. This is important because following the course, the certified trainers
were required to deliver the JAPRI entrepreneurship module to young women in their assisted
communities.
Since JAPRI W-GDP is mandated to provide capacity development support for women aged 18-29, gender
equality is an essential topic to be delivered by JAPRI trainers. Women who are running businesses are
often faced with multiple challenges such as cultural barriers and access to markets and capacity building.
One challenge that significantly impacts the female entrepreneurs’ potential for growth is that they are
often overburdened with domestic responsibilities. Considering this matter, JAPRI trainers also delivered
a gender equality basic concept to the ToT participants. JAPRI expected the participants would then pass
on messages of gender equality to young women in their communities.

JAPRI was unable to hold a gender training in Q2 FY20 due to COVID-19. JAPRI will adapt the gender
training and offer it online so that it can be still delivered in Q3 FY20.
In this quarter, JAPRI received the result of online mentoring activities organized by Mercy Corps
Indonesia, one of JAPRI partners who implemented a mentoring program through MicroMentor Indonesia
(MMI) as their own online-platform. JAPRI collaboratively worked with MMI for six months to support
JAPRI’s youth beneficiaries, especially in Bandung-West Java, in creating or improving their businesses. At
the end of March 2020, MMI has completed their final program report and then shared its result to JAPRI.
Based on the report, 278 JAPRI’s P&V youth (105 males; 173 females) registered and completed their
business profiles in the MMI platform. Once P&V youth completed their profile, they were linked to the
registered mentors who had a similar expertise with youth businesses. 64% of 278 youth were the
entrepreneurs in the culinary (29%), fashion (28%), and craft (7%), while the others were in the service,
manufacture, IT, farming, and even had not started a business. After completion of the six-months of
program, the P&V youth reported that their businesses were growing. Of 278 P&V youth who accessed
mentoring, 92 youth created a business; 1158 new employees were recruited within their businesses; 19%
revenue increased; and 247 youth improved skills in bookkeeping and management skills. The P&V youth
felt the mentoring relationship was effective and their mentors had fully met their expectations. For those
who just started a business, the mentoring process was very helpful in start-up assistance for new
entrepreneurs in establishing a business management. It indicates the online mentoring through MMI
platform fulfills our objective to deliver value and meaningful help to the JAPRI’s youth beneficiaries.
V. Impact on Beneficiaries
Miftakhul Jannah, 27 years old, Gresik - Owner of M&S (Perfume)
Miftakhul Jannah, known as Mita, is an example of a woman
entrepreneur who understands the needs of other women. Mita
is 27 years old and was born in Gresik. Mita chose women
perfume for her business product. She believes that perfume is a
key product for women who live in hot cities like Gresik, because
it can help overcome body odour issues. With her M&S perfume
brand, Mita has begun expanding from perfume for women to
perfume for men and babies. She believes that perfume is a good
product for all sexes and ages.
Mita's business is run online and offline, and she currently employs
one administrative staff member. The challenge that Mita faced is
the competition in the perfume business. Mita must continue to
update variations of her perfume and establish relationships with
her customers to get their loyalty. Mita is quite confident she can
maintain customer loyalty.
Mita's motivation for joining the JAPRI program was her desire to
improve the scale of her business. Even though the perfume
business competition is tough, Mita believes that the knowledge
and experience gained from JAPRI trainers and coaches can help
her business become better. Mita hopes that more and more young people do business. Business is not
just a matter of money – Mita believes it is also the creation of character to take risks, be creative, and be
responsible.

Anita Briana Dewi (Moana)
“Do what you believe you can do, and keep moving forward!”
Many say that looking for money consumes a
lot of time and energy. But what if making
money can be done while having fun and
traveling? That's what Anita Briana tries to do.
Anita is someone who loves studying and is
always looking for opportunities. Starting in
high school, Anita started withselling all sorts
of products. She began a business selling mobile
phone credit, but the profit margin was too
small. When she was studying at the university,
she was involved in a coconut rice business
with her friends, but unfortunately the business
was not successful. Anita then tried to sell used
clothes and bags, but this business also closed.
Anita was not disheartened, however – she
learned from her failures and was determined
to make her future businesses even better.
Anita looked for other places to learn, and joined the GLF organization by becoming a student exchange
ambassador. In her role, she helps with travel arrangements. Anita saw a new opportunity for her business
and formed a Facebook fanpage Travellover to offer services to foreign tourists. With her experience as
a student exchange ambassador, helping foreign tourists, it was not a difficult job for her. Anita tried to
obtain some investors but was not successful, yet. She did receive a lot of useful advice.
Anita continued to run her business and then she joined JAPRI program. From JAPRI she learned many
new things, primarily that her lack of success was caused by poor teamwork and under-usage of digital
technology. Now, Anita has opened a new
business in Yogyakarta called Moana that rents
bicycles to encourage ecotourism, particularly
among foreign tourists. Through her business,
Anita has had a positive impact on small village
communities.

Islamabad and Nurul Afifah - Youth with Disabilities
Islamabad and Nurul Afifah have distinctive characteristics from other beneficiaries of the USAID JAPRI
program. They are the only married couple selected as beneficiaries of the 2018 JAPRI program in Bandung,
West Java. Both of them are deaf. Islamabad suffered hearing impairment following a sickness at age five,
while his wife, Nurul Afifah has been deaf since her birth. This made them very special and they are widely
known among JAPRI stakeholders. They are known as an artistic couple with enormous entrepreneurial
spirits.
Before being admitted to the JAPRI program, the couple had been building a business in the creative
industry under the brand “Alifa Enterprises.” Both of them are artists with specializations in calligraphy
and painting. They sold their products in their schools and neighborhood. They understood that they have
to master business practices for building their business. This was an important reason behind their decision
to apply for the JAPRI program. When asked by JAPRI officials what they expect following completion of
the program, they noted that their vision is to become an important merchandise player in Bandung and
West Java.
JAPRI helped the couple to realize their vision through various activities, the first of which was business
coaching and mentoring. JAPRI provided a business coach to regularly monitor progress of the business
owned by Islamabad and Nurul. In addition, JAPRI created a business mentoring system in which
beneficiaries like the couple had an opportunity to focus on specific themes with a qualified business
mentor. JAPRI regularly held biweekly mentoring sessions with different business themes and speakers in
every meeting. The coaching and mentoring system allowed Islamabad and Nurul to improve their business
while absorbing lessons given during coaching and mentoring sessions. By the final months of the JAPRI
program in 2018, the couple successfully built a new network for marketing their merchandise. Now their
products are marketed not only in the immediate neighborhood, but also outside their town through an
online platform, and through various youth business communities. As a result, they have received orders
for their merchandise for various events in multiple cities, including for student graduations, birthdays,
weddings, and even for a movie premiere. During the premiere of the Indonesian-nationally acclaimed
movie, “Si Doel,” Alifa merchandise was included among the official merchandise available at the event.
JAPRI also provided an opportunity for the couple to learn direct promotion and customer engagement
by participating in a Small and Medium Enterprises(SMEs) trade exhibition. Islamabad and Nurul took part
59
in the exhibition held at the West Java Governorate Office in April 2018. Given his difficulties in
communicating with people without disabilities, Islamabad recognized his anxiety regarding interacting with
customers. Following the exhibition, he stated that his confidence was much improved since he had to
explain the products to the exhibition visitors.
In the 1.5 half years since Islamabad and Nurul Afifah completed the JAPRI entrepreneurship assistance
program, the couple has given a birth to their first daughter. Their business is also growing more revenue.
They are able to consistently record monthly revenue above IDR 5 million in last several months. Before
they joined the JAPRI project, they only earned IDR 1 million. The couple has also expanded the variety
of their business products. They understand that the majority of the public does not have any awareness
of issues related to people with disabilities such as deaf language “Indonesian Sign Language (Bahasa Isyarat
Indonesia/BISINDO).” Therefore, they have created a brand-new clothing line that is specifically designed
in BISINIDO-related visualization.
In addition to running their family business, the couple is currently active within disability community in
the Bandung region. After completing the JAPRI program, they realized that entrepreneurship is the best
option to assist people with disabilities to be independent and self-sufficient. Hence, Islamabad and Nurul
are sharing their entrepreneurship lessons learned in the JAPRI program to their fellow deaf community
members.
In the future, Islamabad and Nurul have a vision to develop Alifa Enterprises by building their own
independent workshop. By establishing the new workshop, they hope that it can provide employment
opportunities for their fellow disability community members and non-disability members. In addition, the
couple are deeply committed to continue actively promoting Indonesian Sign Language and
entrepreneurship for deaf and non-deaf people in the city of Bandung.

ANNEX 1 Assessment of Activity Situation and Opportunities
for Adaption
FY2020 2nd Quarter Progress Report
Supplement - Assessment of Activity Situation and
Opportunities for Adaption
USAID/Indonesia is seeking input to assess the impact of COVID-19 on the implementation of current activities and understand opportunities of when such activities could or must be adapted to respond to these new realities.
You are requested to complete this questionnaire and include this as a supplement to the upcoming Quarterly Progress Report. Should you have any questions, please contact your COR/AOR.
Activity Name: JAdi Pengusaha MandiRI
(JAPRI) Activity End: September 2021
Date: April 24, 2020
1. On a scale of 1 (low) to 10 (high), how strongly is your activity affected by the crisis?
Please explain.
7 - JAPRI activities in the field such as trainings, coaching, and mentoring are on
hold as of March 16. 2. What are the main difficulties that your activity is facing/will face:
a. In the short term (through May 30, 2020):
JAPRI adjusted some of its activities and is now offering them online. However,
due to participants’ limited infrastructure (signal, equipment such as laptops or
mobile phones), the online activities may not be as effective.
61
b. If the present situation continues or worsens in the medium-term through July
2020)?
If the present situation worsens, it will have an impact on JAPRI’s ability to
achieve its targets. The level of cooperation with different stakeholders may also
change depending on what adjustments they need to introduce. JAPRI works with
local governments in East Java to conduct activities. If local government priorities
change due to COVID-19, they may no longer have resources to support JAPRI
activities. 3. What are the main types of activities, and what specific activities will you not be
able to continue?
a. In the short term:
Training activities that involve the attendance of 20 to 80 participants: training
of trainers, training of coaches, entrepreneurship training, one-day business
training, gender training.
Business mentoring.
Coaching. One-on-one session between coach and coaches.
b. In the medium-term:
JAPRI will not be able to continue any of its off-line activities including
collaboration with local stakeholders.
4. What approximate percentage of your workforce is able to continue to conduct activities?
What approximate percentage of your workforce is currently able to
telework successfully?
100% of the JAPRI workforce is able to conduct activities and telework successfully.
The team is working towards developing alternative learning tools (online learning
system) in order to continue to conduct activities. While the online learning system
can be developed, the effectiveness of the delivery to participants might become a
challenge. Some participants might have difficulty accessing learning systems due to
lack of infrastructure such as internet connection or phone signal.
5. What measures are you taking to mitigate organizational or programmatic
negative consequences of COVID-19?
a. In the short term?
JAPRI continues to conduct activities through online tools such as Whastapp
group, live streaming, and off-line videos.
62
b. In the medium term?
JAPRI will evaluate the effectiveness of the online learning system in order to adjust its
methods. If online learning is not effective and the Indonesian government continues to
restrict gatherings and meetings, JAPRI may request to lower its indicator targets.
JAPRI will continue looking into developing a more sustainable digital learning system
to complement off-line learning. 6. Do you already anticipate that a contract/agreement extension will be necessary?
When do you anticipate needing to make this decision?
JAPRI will assess the situation in June.
7. Have you re-planned or re-prioritized existing activities? Please briefly explain
what is your current plan.
JAPRI adapted its activities to address the current challenges. JAPRI plans to develop
the online learning materials for participants. 8. Are you currently working with your COR/AOR to adjust the MEL Plan?
JAPRI is working with the AOR and discussed the need to develop an online learning
tool. JAPRI plans to roll out materials, and review their effectiveness before adjusting
the work plan and MEL Plan.
9. Within your scope of work, what ways could your activity address the impact of COVID-
19?
One of the major impacts of COVID19 is that many people will lose their jobs. With
JAPRI’ new online learning platform, JAPRI can reach new potential beneficiaries to
promote self- employment.
63
10. Looking ahead, what do you see as the potential medium to long-term impacts of
COVID-19 on the regions (geographic) and sectors where you work? (not necessarily
limited to the scope of your specific activity) What are areas of concern worth tracking
as part of a “learning agenda” for USAID to inform future support efforts?
- Inclusive economic growth. Small businesses have been proven to be the engine
of growth post the economic crisis in 1998.
- Continued support to small businesses, including advocacy at the national level
to ensure the government has a comprehensive program for small businesses to
help those affected by COVID-19.
64
ANNEX II Questions and Answers on Training of
Trainers, UPI
A couple of interesting questions and responses were captured during the discussions between the
participants and JAPRI during the closing session of Training of Trainer, UPI on January 29 – 30, 2020.
Question: As we grow older, we tend to only lecture in class without much variation of learning
method. How can we keep the students interested and excited to follow through with the training?
Solution: As lecturers or trainers we always have to find new and exciting alternative methods to
deliver our materials, such as fun quizzes to exercise their critical thinking or using songs as a timer
for the quiz. It is normal to have different approaches, but it is more important to find the most
suitable method for the lecturers’ and the students’ needs.
Questions: Do lecturers need to have their own business in order to practice what we preach?
SOlutionIt doesn’t necessarily have to be that way. While it is true that knowledge can be found
through experience, observation will also help lecturers gain the knowledge and insights important in
delivering entrepreneurship learning materials.
Question: How can we remove the gap between lecturers and students?
Solution: A gap between the lecturers and students is considered bad if it removes active
communication. It is important to maintain a “healthy gap” by establishing rules and boundaries
between lecturers and students. Do not act as their friend, but as their parent, brother or sister
instead. So they will still show respect but lecturers are still approachable to the students.
Questions: Is the JAPRI entrepreneurship module only applicable in entrepreneurship classes?
- Respone: No, although the JAPRI entrepreneurship module focuses on the basic knowledge on
building entrepreneurship, the module can also be integrated in other classes if relevant.
Lecturers can use the module completely or partially, according to their needs in
entrepreneurship classes and other classes.
