KITA SEHAT is funded and managed by Australia’s Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT) and implemented by DT Global. Indonesia's Ministry of National Development Planning/National Development Planning Agency (Kementerian PPN/Bappenas) is the primary coordinating ministry for the program, in partnership with the Ministry of Health, the Ministry of Agriculture and subnational governments in Jawa Barat, Nusa Tenggara Timur and Papua Barat Daya.

The program works towards four end-of-program outcomes (EOPOs):  

• Primary health care policy and governance – by 2033, national and selected subnational authorities have adopted improved primary health policies, service delivery approaches and governance arrangements.  
• Primary health services – by 2033, selected subnational authorities have improved the quality of and access to primary health services with a focus on stunting prevention and the inclusion of women, people with disability and other marginalised groups. 
• Health system enablers – by 2033, national and selected subnational authorities have enhanced core workforce capabilities in critical human and animal health system enabling functions. 
• Health security – by 2033, national and selected subnational authorities have increased capacity for health security and animal health policy development, strategic planning and the assessment, mitigation and management of acute and emerging health threats.  

KITA SEHAT is designed to address local priorities, ensure women and people with disabilities are central to health system change, and to build climate resilience into how that change is delivered. The program is aligned to Indonesia’s National Medium-Term Development Plan (RPJMN) 2025-2029, specifically National Priority 4: Strengthening Human Resources Development, Science, Technology, Education, Health Sport, Gender Equality, and Strengthening the Role of Women, Youth and People with Disabilities
