NATIONAL CONTRIBUTION
REPORT
Since its start in 2011, XL Future Leaders has
received four awards including the Best CSR
Award from the Perhumas Awards 2016.
New innovations have been introduced to
the programme such that it now meets
Indonesian education objectives and has
evolved from one subject programme in
2011 to eight in 2016. As with the AYTP, XL
Future Leaders is helping build capabilities
and capacities of our future generations.
Driving Inclusivity
Some of XL’s key contributions to national
development are its initiatives to bridge
the digital divide within the Indonesian
community. In 2016, XL focused its efforts
on bringing connectivity and digital services
to Indonesian women, whose rate of
internet use lags 30% to 40% behind their
counterparts in other ASEAN countries.
Sisternet, XL’s digital home for Indonesian
women, was introduced to empower and
enrich women’s online experience, and to
encourage their participation in the digital
economy.
The portal publishes informative articles
that empower and enrich the lives of
Indonesian women. Information available
on Sisternet includes health and career
tips, lifestyle information, family life and
shopping. It also offers mentorship through
the Sisternet Academy.
