In this research an attempt was made to map the Indonesian water policy network through Social Network Analysis (SNA). Furthermore, the role of the distribution of information and knowledge in this (policy) network with respect to its’ capacity to perform well has been investigated. This research has shown that there are there are some fundamental issues at hand in Indonesian water management that cause systematic underperformance of the sector as whole. Although sector reformation has introduced several principles of integrated water resources management into the Indonesian water sector, positive results in terms of water policy and solutions remain unseen because they are limited by ineffective policy processes and water policy network in transition.
