Two districts, Wonosobo and Kebumen in Central Java, are selected for the PLID program. The selection was based on the availability of the districts, their readiness to shoulder part of the program costs and to commit in participation of the training. PLID is a training program for decision makers at district level. The Introductory Phase (KPT 1) was conducted in the two districts in last August 2008.
