Digital literacy and cybersecurity initiatives in Indonesia

Overview

Digital literacy and security initiatives are expanding across Indonesia to address various online risks. Initial efforts focused on community-level education, such as programs in Depok designed to teach families how to manage digital identities and avoid the privacy violations associated with oversharing personal information on social media.

Subsequent developments show a broader institutional approach, with the Ministry of Communication and Digital partnering with journalist associations to enhance AI literacy and combat cybercrime. These efforts include upskilling digital talent and fostering collaboration between the press, law enforcement, and local authorities to combat hoaxes and ensure transparent reporting in the digital era.
