The Indonesian National AIDS Commission has used Stepping Stones in Papua (the adaptation illustrated here, which Project Concern International developed).

Development of Batu Loncatan in Papua, by Karen  Smith, NACO, Indonesia

The Stepping Stones approach and many modules/units of discussion were extremely well received in Tanah Papua (the name for the two easternmost provinces in Indonesia which occupy the western 1/2 of the island of New Guinea) by people, many of whom indicated they gained new understanding of important issues and new ways to discuss these issues further with other people.  This was  true among some people of high education and some more rural, traditional people with minimum education.

Stepping  Stones was developed in Papua and and Papua Barat by Family Health International (FHI) between 2005 to 2008.  The  translation of the manual was taken on by Project Concern International under contract to FHI. Unfortunately, the programme stopped due to funding difficulties but some of the individuals and organizations who got to use Stepping Stones when FHI was supporting the training have continued using the programme since then.  Also, two staff members of FHI — a man and a woman —  who were the most skilled and devoted Stepping Stones facilitators, moved to the Australian-supported programme in Papua and now incorporate selected units in other training.
