The Australia-Indonesia Youth Exchange Program (AIYEP), established in 1982, links Australian and Indonesian youth (aged 21-25) through social, professional, and cultural exchange. Delivered in partnership with the Indonesian Ministry of Youth and Sport, AIYEP aims to foster mutual understanding and increase cultural literacy and capability.

Program delegates grow their intercultural skills and international networks through internships, language training, academic workshops and cultural activities. Beginning with five weeks of online learning and networking, delegates complete their Global Competence Certificate and get to know one another before undertaking immersion programs in each country.

In 2024 AIYEP will be hosted in Canberra, Australia and Lombok, Indonesia. The 21 Indonesian delegates will enjoy five weeks in Australia before the 21 Australian delegates join them to prepare together for the Indonesia phase of the program. Working collaboratively on contemporary issues impacting local communities, delegates come together in Indonesia at a Youth Summit to explore sustainable solutions.

AIYEP is currently delivered by Value Learning. For more information, visit the Australia-Indonesia Youth Exchange Program website.
