Kreativitas Generasi Muda Dalam Menghadapi Persaingan Global

Abstract

Young generation is a strategic national asset with a crucial role in facing the increasingly complex challenges of global competition. This study aims to analyze forms of creativity among Indonesian youth and the factors influencing them in the context of global competition. Using a qualitative research method with a descriptive-analytical approach, data were collected through in-depth interviews, observation, and documentation studies. The results show that youth creativity manifests in three main dimensions: digital creativity, entrepreneurial creativity, and socio-cultural creativity. Supporting factors include access to information technology, a conducive educational ecosystem, and government policy support. Meanwhile, the main obstacles are the digital infrastructure gap, lack of innovative mindset, and limited access to financing. This study recommends strengthening the innovation ecosystem through pentahelix collaboration among government, academia, industry, community, and media
