About Foreign Policy Community of Indonesia (FPCI)
Foreign Policy Community of Indonesia (FPCI) is a non-partisan, non-political, and independent foreign policy organization established in 2015. FPCI has grown quickly to become the largest foreign policy group in Southeast Asia, with over 100,000 people in our network throughout Indonesia and also abroad. Our aim is to promote positive nationalism, healthy internationalism, and robust international cooperation, especially at the grassroots level.
Every year, FPCI convenes what is arguably the world’s largest foreign policy conference in 2019, some 11,000 people registered at the Conference on Indonesian Foreign Policy. Amidst challenges posed by COVID-19, FPCI has shown great adaptability to continue our mission via virtual engagements. For the past three years, we hosted the Global Town Hall, which was attended by an average of 10,000 people from 142 countries and discussed the most pressing issues of our time.
