Why is Indonesian language and culture important for South Australian students?

Indonesia is Australia’s closest neighbour and a key regional partner. Understanding Indonesia helps students understand their world. Learning Indonesian builds more than language skills. It develops cultural awareness, communication confidence, and real-world capability. Students gain:

Intercultural understanding
Practical communication skills
Pathways into regional and global careers
The confidence to engage beyond borders

In a connected world, these skills matter.

Study

We support and further the study and teaching of the Indonesian language and culture in school at all levels.

Support

We offer support to all teachers and students of Indonesian on matters of concern.

Community

We foster contact by teachers and students with speakers of Indonesian in the community and abroad.

Co-operate

We co-operate with other institutions, societies, associations or other bodies that have an interest in the study and/or teaching of the Indonesian language and culture.
