Indonesia Sekolah Rakyat program development

Overview

Indonesia’s Ministry of Social Affairs is implementing new strategic directions for the Sekolah Rakyat program to combat poverty. Social Affairs Minister Saifullah Yusuf announced that graduates completing upper secondary education will be offered two distinct pathways: pursuing higher education via scholarship support or entering the workforce as skilled laborers.

To support the vocational pathway, the Ministry is working to design skill development programs tailored to student interests and potential. Additionally, the program aims to improve social assistance accuracy by encouraging Sekolah Rakyat human resources to participate in the National Neighbor Care Movement. By registering as Social Protection Agents, these individuals will help identify and register vulnerable citizens missing from official databases to ensure government aid reaches those in need.
