Indonesia Launches National Internship To Reduce Unemployment

Indonesia is in a demographic-dividend phase (2020–2030) dominated by Generation Z, with nearly 10 million Gen Z neither employed nor in education in 2023 and the cohort comprising about 28% (roughly 75 million) of the population. The government launched a National Internship in 2025 that enrolled 100,000 participants, aiming to address skill gaps as AI is projected to alter about 23% of jobs.
