Summary

This study evaluates an Empowerment Agency Training (EAT) intervention within the SPHERES programme that aims to strengthen personal agency among workers in primary healthcare centers (Puskesmas) in Indonesia. The intervention focuses on building self-efficacy, behavioural control, leadership, and intentional decision-making through structured training, follow-up action planning, observational support, and sustainability-oriented incentives. Strengthening personal agency is expected to improve the use of data for decision-making and the delivery of priority primary health services at the Puskesmas level.

BEHAVIORAL

Empowerment Agency Training (EAT)

The intervention comprises a behavioral training program focused on personal agency and empowerment. The curriculum follows the established frameworks developed by The Self-Empowerment and Equity for Change (SEE Change) Initiative at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health. The training is followed by simple, practical "prescription", or action plans, for behaviour change in daily work. Implementation is supported through direct observation by facilitators (expert shadowing) and incentives, including advanced training opportunities and locally managed financial support.
