In 2019, The Duke of Edinburgh’s International Award – Indonesia (registered as PT DOE Intaward Indonesia), was established as a National Award Operator (NAO) to better service and support the Award in Indonesia.
PT DOE Intaward Indonesia operates as a social franchise working to challenge young Indonesians to dream big, celebrate their achievements and make a difference in their world. It aims to bring as many young people as possible to undertake their Award regardless of their ethnicity, race, religion and ability. The NAO is governed by a very engaged and diverse board of directors and advisors and has a highly skilled team of staff to support delivery partners in both Bahasa Indonesia and English. Indonesia has been successful in increasing access to the Award in implementing projects to reach some of the most marginalised and at-risk young people in the country.
In 2018, over 1600 young people participated in the Award, delivered by 25 different organisations including schools, NGOs and uniform groups. This number is rapidly growing to reach more and more young people in Indonesia.
