TN is an organization committed to inspire, cultivate and empower succeeding generations of Indonesian youth passionate about Indonesia’s development.

It is critical for us to discuss Indonesia’s current economic state. We see signs of slowing economic growth potentially caused by both domestic circumstances, and external conditions. How can we boost employment? How can we ensure opportunities for all levels of society, including ourselves? How can we navigate uncertain currency valuations as we study abroad? How can Indonesia’s public and private sector work together to boost a stagnating economy?

This event will provide attendees with the opportunity to interact with peers, mentors, and our distinguished speakers and discuss the questions and topics posed above, in addition to any questions you may have.
