Value Co-creation Platform as Part of an Integrative Group Model-Building Process in Policy Development in Indonesia

Abstract

The Indonesian government nowadays faces multidimensional and multifaceted problems that require a more proper framework of policy making. Group model building (GMB), in parallel with system dynamics, becomes a successful methodology in policy making though some weaknesses exist. We have proposed an integrative GMB process by adapting the framework of value co-creation and orchestration platform to overcome those problems. Three management strategies of value co-creation as the main findings are revoked: involvement, curation, and empowerment. Those keywords are inputted to improve the GMB process and applied to the wicked problems found in the Indonesian context that needs more integrative solution to see how the GMB platform may be implemented in the real-world problem. Although it is still an ongoing process, we can see that by adapting the value co-creation platform as part of the GMB process, it is advantageous in defining what activities should be done by each actor (e.g., facilitator, modeler, stakeholders) in order to have a better policy recommendation in the part of policy making and policy development process.
