The Australia-Indonesia Youth Exchange Program (AIYEP) is an exchange program which aims to provide opportunities for young Australians and Indonesians to appreciate each other's culture, development and the way of life.
The structure of the Program involves 18 Indonesian participants (9 male, 9 female) coming to Australia to experience both rural and urban Australian environments. Then after two months, they meet their Australian counterparts - and together they travel to Indonesia. In Indonesia they experience both a rural village-stay and an urban environment.
