JAKARTA - Minister of Tourism and Creative Economy (Menparekraf) Sandiaga Salahuddin Uno believes that the students spread throughout Indonesia are state assets that are able to become economic drivers and encourage the creation of 4.4 million main jobs through digitalization.
With the number of students, based on data from the Ministry of Religion until 2022/2023, it shows that there are around 5 million female students and female students spread across 39,045 Islamic boarding schools in Indonesia, Sandiaga sees that the participation of students in supporting the development of the tourism sector and the creative economy is still not optimal.
"Therefore, I immediately initiated it. But if it is only for fostering in the tourism sector and the creative economy will not be very effective. This means that digitalization must be assisted. Then the Indonesian Digitalpreneur Santri program was initiated," Sandiaga said as quoted by ANTARA, Saturday, July 15.
In the Santri Digitalpreneur Indonesia program, students are equipped with digitalization knowledge with current trends that can improve their skills and competitiveness. So it is hoped that students can create videos or creative content that supports the presence of Islamic content with creative values as well as inspiring.
