The Indonesian government allocated Rp 72.99 trillion (approximately USD 5 billion) to the Ministry of Education, Culture, Research, and Technology (Kemendikbudristek) in the 2022 State Budget (APBN). This represents a 6.6% reduction compared to the 2021 outlook of Rp 78.18 trillion (approximately USD 5.3 billion).

To enhance the competitiveness of qualified human resources, Kemendikbudristek prioritized several key outputs in 2022. These included 17.93 million students receiving the Indonesia Pintar Program (KIP) and 646,000 students receiving KIP Kuliah (KIP for Higher Education).

Furthermore, the Kemendikbudristek budget funded various allowances for 355,500 non-civil servant teachers, 7,814 individuals pursuing advanced degrees, and achievement development programs for 9,036,000 students.

In 2020, Kemendikbudristek's expenditure more than doubled to Rp 79.06 trillion (approximately USD 5.4 billion) from Rp 36.49 trillion (approximately USD 2.5 billion) the previous year. This increase was due to the integration of higher education responsibilities from the Ministry of Research, Technology, and Higher Education into the Ministry of Education and Culture.

The increased spending under Minister Nadiem Makarim included KIP Kuliah, operational assistance for state universities (BOPTN), and lecturer professional allowances.
