“…Whilst the absence of direct interviews with politicians is a limitation of this particular study, it is consistent with the empirical focus of extant policy and public administration literature on the technical work done by governments (cf. Gron, Bro, & Andersen, 2019;Wimmelmann, Vallgarda, & Jensen, 2018).…”

PurposeThis research seeks to explain how a national government becomes capable of constructing an account of its biodiversity performance that is aimed at enabling formulation of policy in pursuit of SDG 15: Life on Land.Design/methodology/approachThe research examines a case study of the construction of the UK government's annual biodiversity report. The case is analysed to explain the process of framing a space in which the SDG-15 challenge of halting biodiversity loss is rendered calculable, such that the government can see and understand its own performance in relation to this challenge.FindingsThe construction of UK government's annual biodiversity report relies upon data collected through non-governmental conservation efforts, statistical expertise of a small project group within the government and a governmental structure that drives ongoing evolution of the indicators as actors strive to make these useful for policy formulation.Originality/valueThe analysis problematises the SDG approach to accounting for sustainable development, whereby performance indicators have been centrally agreed and universally imposed upon all signatory governments. The analysis suggests that capacity-building efforts for national governments may need to be broader than that envisaged by the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.

“…As such, throughout this paper the term "national government" is used to refer to this government bureaucracy (cf. Gron, Bro, & Andersen, 2019;Wimmelmann, Vallgarda, & Jensen, 2018). This focus has enabled the in-depth analysis of processes involved in seeking to construct policy-relevant accounts of biodiversity…”

“…Around the PAWT, a transboundary problem-solving group was formed. This establishes a community of practice (Koliba & Gajda, 2009), in which policy knowledge is translated into the hinterland practice (Wimmelmann et al, 2018), local knowledge is produced, and explicit/tacit and individual/group knowledge can begin their generative dance (Cook & Brown, 1999). We define the piecing together of knowledge and the process of transforming knowledge into policy practice as knowledge bricolage (Freeman, 2007).…”

The implementation of complex policies is of critical significance for the achievement of many central governments' policy expectations. How do local governments implement complex policies? By using a structured‐learning framework constructed from the governance‐localization perspective, we evaluated the mode three Chinese counties employed to implement the targeted poverty alleviation (TPA) policy. We found poverty alleviation task teams were the core TPA practitioners, and the implementation mode was politicalized empowered learning. Local governments reconstructed their implementation structures through the establishment of politicised project organisations. By involving and braiding multiple policy actors, vertical and horizontal conflicts were resolved, and collective action structures were constructed. They also constructed governance mechanisms for policy learning. Top‐down policy knowledge was translated and shared; bottom‐up local knowledge was produced; and, policy knowledge and local knowledge were integrated. The relationships between implementation structures, policy learning, and political steering led to diverse and unexpected policy implementation outcomes.

“…Dalam hal ini bidan desa sebagai pelaksana lapangan merupakan aktor yang paling banyak berhubungan langsung dengan masyarakat desa, sehingga terlaksana dengan baik atau tidaknya program dan juga bagaimana penerimaan masyarakat Kabupaten Kupang, khususnya yang berada di desa terhadap kebijakan kesehatan ibu dan anak juga sangat tergantung dari sikap bidan desa dalam memberikan pelayanan kesehatan. Wimmelmann, Vallgårda, & Jensen (2018) dari hasil kajiannya juga menyampaikan bahwa profesionalitas dari pelaksana tenaga kesehatan lapangan yang terbentuk dari komitmen, pengetahuan dan pengalaman memegang peranan penting dalam implementasi kebijakan kesehatan.…”
