Indonesian Student Forum Synergizes With To Realize The 2045 Golden Generation

JAKARTA Indonesia has a big vision to create the Indonesian Golden Generation 2045. Indonesia is one of the countries that actively supports the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) program which aims to create a better world, one of which is in terms of the quality of human resources.

To achieve this goal, Indonesia wants to maximize the demographic bonus which is expected to occur in the 2025 2045 period. In that time range, 70% of Indonesia's population is dominated by productive age, namely 18 45 years.

Involvement from various parties, both from the government, the private sector, to the community, is needed to realize this vision. The spirit of collaboration must be instilled in all elements of society from an early age so that the Indonesian generation in the future is able to build the nation with the principle of mutual cooperation.
