Indonesia Ministry of Youth and Sports activities

Overview

Indonesian Minister of Youth and Sports Erick Thohir has engaged in international diplomacy and domestic administrative reforms.

In July 2026, Thohir met with UN officials in New York to discuss global youth challenges, specifically mental health and employment opportunities. During this period, he also signed a Memorandum of Understanding with New York University’s Preston Robert Tisch Institute for Global Sport to develop Indonesia’s sports ecosystem through research and athlete scholarships.

By August 2026, the focus shifted toward internal ministerial improvements. Thohir reported progress in bureaucratic transformation under a presidential directive from President Prabowo Subianto. These reforms contributed to a performance rating of 83 percent and the receipt of an Unqualified Opinion from the Audit Board of Indonesia, signaling improved transparency and management within the ministry.
