The ‘Anak Bangsa Siap Berkarya’ programme will be hosted in five major cities in Indonesia: Jakarta, Bandung, Semarang, Surabaya and Medan. It will run from the end of 2015 through to the end of 2019.

Sumit Dutta said, “We’re delighted to support the ‘Anak Bangsa Siap Berkarya’ programme in helping Indonesian youth find the path that’s best suited for life after their studies. There are many opportunities and different career paths available to young people today. We want to play a role in preparing their readiness to seize these opportunities and make their dreams come true. ”

  • Empowerment programme
    This program is designed to support women who aspire to be micro-entrepreneurs. The program will be delivered in low-socio economic areas. It’s designed to support to 10,000 women to become entrepreneurs in 4 years.
  • Education volunteering programme
    To help develop an ongoing programme, HSBC Indonesia and the YCAB Foundation (Yayasan Cinta Anak Bangsa) will set up four Learning Centers across Indonesia to deliver ongoing vocational education. The advice and support will be delivered by volunteers from HSBC Indonesia.

Veronica mentioned, “Collaboration between HSBC Indonesia and YCAB Foundation has been running for 3 years. We hope that “Anak Bangsa Siap Berkarya” can give long term impact, especially to help bring down the youth unemployment rate in Indonesia. I see the commitment from HSBC to always support education for the under-served community”.
