The Youth Empowerment Initiative in Indonesia aims to invest in and empower young people across the nation, to accelerate the implementation of SDGs.

They can make a positive difference by taking on the challenges through social innovation, mobilising their peers and communities, and creating adaptive and innovative solutions.
