Partai Remaja (PARE)

Partai Remaja or Abbreviated PARE (Indonesian Youth Party) is a youth organization aimed at increasing political literacy and engagement among Indonesian teenagers. PARE was officially created on 28 December, 2023. PARE is not just a political party that discuss about politics, but also a social and educational movement that instills democratic values, nationalism, and leadership in the younger generation.

This organization was established in response to the lack of political education among Indonesian youth. Amid the complexity of the national political system, teenagers often feel disconnected from politics, perceiving it as something complicated and only relevant to adults or political elites. PARE seeks to break this stigma by providing simple, engaging, and relatable political education for young people.

Background and Reasons

Social and Political Context

Indonesia is a democratic country with a large youth population. Statistics from the year 2022 show that nearly 28% of Indonesians are under the age of 18. However, their participation in elections and other political activities remains relatively low. One of the main reasons for this is the lack of early political education.

PARE was formed as a response to this reality. Its founders recognized that Indonesia’s future heavily depends on a young generation with solid political awareness. Through PARE, teenagers are not only introduced to political concepts but are also encouraged to actively participate in democratic processes and national development.
