One of the determinants of population quality in a country is the level of education. The higher the level of education in a country, the better the quality of its population.

Nationally, young people who completed tertiary education amounted to 10.36% in 2020. The percentage of young people in urban areas who completed higher education is higher than in rural areas (12.75% compared to 7.09%).

When viewed from the expenditure group, the percentage of young people in the top 20% expenditure group who completed tertiary education is 23.10%. However, the bottom 40% expenditure group is only 4%. This means that the disparity in education is clearly visible from economic status.

The definition of tertiary education here includes completing a D1/D2/D3 program or obtaining a bachelor's degree from an academy/university that offers diploma/bachelor programs.

Youth, according to Law No. 40/2008, are Indonesian citizens aged 16 to 30 years. According to the 2020 Susenas (National Socioeconomic Survey), the number of young people is estimated to reach 64.50 million, or 23.86% of Indonesia's total population.
