According to the Central Bureau of Statistics, the number of young people in Indonesia has fluctuated but generally decreased. From 2010 to 2019, the proportion of young people ranged from 24% to 26%, peaking at 26.22% in 2010.
The population control program implemented since 1970 has impacted the overall population structure. The percentage of young people in Indonesia has shown a downward trend year by year. The 2019 National Socioeconomic Survey (Susenas) estimates the number of young people at 64.19 million, equivalent to approximately one-quarter of Indonesia's total population.
Based on Law No. 40 of 2009, young people are Indonesian citizens aged 16 to 30 years who are in a crucial period of growth and development.
