The YES Program for high school students in Indonesia is recruiting

US Embassy for Indonesia

U.S. Embassy Jakarta’s top priority in Indonesia is promoting education.  In fact, the United States and Indonesia have identified education as a key priority for both countries by including it  as one of the six goal areas under the U.S.-Indonesia Comprehensive Partnership.  Over the next five years, both governments have committed to doubling the number of exchange students in each country.  Currently, 7,000 Indonesians study in the United States, and the Embassy hopes to double this number to more than 14,000. Check out the YES 2010 send-off video.

The Youth Exchange Program (YES), the one-year exchange Program for high school students in Indonesia, is open for recruitment from March 15 – April 15, 2012.
