The aim of UK Alumni Youth Champion is to position UK Higher Education through a greater investment of resources, skills and dedicated activities by building stronger relationship between alumni and British Council working together to deliver activities related to UK higher education and UK alumni in Indonesia.
UK higher education strives to develop academic, professional and leadership potential and stimulate lasting change by empowering global network of skilled individuals through high-quality education experiences in the UK and overseas.
The alumni return to Indonesia with new ideas and knowledge, and the ability to make a significant contribution to Indonesia as leaders in their field. Their capacities and influence may help in stimulating economic growth and addressing social and economic challenges in Indonesia.
For the UK, the alumni make up an influential global network of leaders, advocates and change-makers and establish a network of ambassadors across the world. The project recognises that education develops skills and knowledge, builds enduring people, country and professional links and has the power to influence positive changes.
