"We have given an example to the world how the learning process in Indonesia is currently more in favor of students and frees teachers to be creative in teaching through the Independent Curriculum and the Merdeka Mengajar platform," said the Minister of Education and Culture, Research and Technology.

Furthermore, it was conveyed that we have also convinced the world that the young generation of Indonesia has been trained in the world of work and social life, the provisions of which have been obtained since college through various off-campus learning programs that are gathered in the Merdeka Campus.

This initiative is a continuation of the breakthrough cultural endowment fund and the first cultural channel in Indonesia that we launched and has provided many benefits for our cultural promoters.

“The things I mentioned earlier are only a small part of the Merdeka Learning breakthrough, which has now reached 21 episodes. There are many more episodes of Merdeka Learning that we will launch, until all children throughout Indonesia feel true independence, which are learning happily, working without obstacles, and running towards the future with courage as Pancasila Students," explained the Minister of Education and Culture, Research and Technology.
