The Indonesian Endowment Fund for Education (LPDP) is responsible for managing and distributing funds for scholarship programs, research, higher education development, and supporting cultural activities.

Throughout 2022, LPDP disbursed funds for these various purposes totaling Rp4.8 trillion, a 60.3% increase compared to 2021 (year-on-year/yoy).

Broken down by type, in 2022 LPDP's fund disbursement increased significantly for scholarship programs, higher education services, and cultural services. Meanwhile, funding for research decreased.

Here is a breakdown of LPDP's service expenditure realization in 2022, along with the percentage increase or decrease compared to 2021:

* Scholarships: Rp4.19 trillion, up 56.08% (yoy)
* Research funding: Rp247.24 billion, down 24.28% (yoy)
* Higher education services: Rp292.65 billion, up 100% (yoy)
* Cultural services: Rp97.18 billion, up 100% (yoy)

Higher education service expenditures were used to fund the World Class University (WCU) program. In this program, LPDP provides funding support for state universities to achieve higher rankings globally.

The use of funds for the WCU program is left to the receiving universities. Generally, these funds are used for postdoctoral study grants, research collaborations, student exchanges, publication funding, and summer courses.

Cultural services are channeled through the Dana Indonesiana program. Individuals or communities active in the cultural field can apply to receive funding.

Dana Indonesiana funds can be used by cultural actors for various purposes, such as participating in cultural events domestically and internationally, utilizing public facilities for cultural events, international distribution of works, and documentation of local master's works.
