Conference Overview
Precious Island spent the whole of 2020 building our youth community, with eager students and activists joining our growing community from many parts of Indonesia, such as Bali, South Sumatra, West Kalimantan, West Java, and more. They are high schoolers, university students, and young professionals who are highly motivated to make a positive change in their community. From our time together with them, building ideas, and holding free webinars about SDGs, we were led to believe that Indonesia did not lack capable youth leaders who want to contribute to the global goals.
