Background
Based on Institute for Development on Economics and Finance (INDEF), the digital discrepancy occurs in most of Indonesia's region (particularly in last mile) due to the low integration between digital sector and education. As result, people do not have a clear sense on what the internet should be used for and low digital talent available locally. Indonesian Fintech Association (AFTECH) suggested that digital talent supply should be started within education sector which integrate digital sector and educational curriculum.
Study from katadata and investinginwomen.asia show that the low representation of women in STEM largely due to stereotypes where: 50% women with STEM background choose not to pursue STEM career due to male domination in the field 45% women with STEM background believe that STEM was not for women.

Greater Jakarta is proposed due to its high digital competitiveness index (76.6) and the high number of SMK teachers and students (on average 1 teacher for 20 students based on data from Ministry of Education). Campaign on the importance of women involvement in STEM (particularly digital) sector and AI adoption in educational curriculum.
