About the Journal

Jurnal Perencanaan Pembangunan: The Indonesian Journal of Development Planning is an international journal published by the Ministry of National Development Planning/National Development Planning Agency (BAPPENAS) that collaborates with the Indonesian Development Planners Association (Perkumpulan Perencana Pembangunan Indonesia/PPPI). The tagline is bridging knowledge to policy (bridging knowledge and science to make better government programs, regulations and other policies). Jurnal Perencanaan Pembangunan: The Indonesian Journal of Development Planning is accredited with Sinta 3 (Science and Technology Index) by the Ministry of Education, Culture, Research, and Technology.

This journal originally was initiated by the Minister of Development Planning/Head of Bappenas at that time -Professor Saleh Afif- with the name of Buletin Perencanaan Pembangunan/BPP (Bulletin of Development Planning) in 1990. Then in 1994, Minister Ginanjar Kartasasmita revived this bulletin under the name Majalah Perencanaan Pembangunan/MPP (Magazine of Development Planning).

In the period of 2015-2017, the Minister who served in that period, Andrinof Chaniago, Sofyan Djalil, and Bambang S Brodjonegoro encouraged MPP to transform into a journal. Then in the year 2017, the publication officially became Jurnal Perencanaan Pembangunan (The Indonesian Journal of Development Planning).

Jurnal Perencanaan Pembangunan: The Indonesian Journal of Development Planning is an open media for academics, researchers, government officials, and policy practitioners who are interested in submitting policy research papers, policy papers, or working papers.
