If you are on holiday in Bali and would like to spend some time (several hours) supporting students within the local community please consider the Youth Sociopreneur Initiative. Prestasi Junior introduces students matriculating at high school level to the world of business by asking them to start-up and operate their own business enterprise. They are supported by our staff and each student within the school based company learns about finance, marketing, human resource management, public relations production and governance through active participation.
Most of these students begin this experiential activity with very little knowledge and no practical record of operating their own business. No similar undertaking is conducted within the national curriculum and 15-17 year old Balinese youth stand to benefit greatly from an experience which prepares them for life after graduation. Bali projects the image of a full economy with minimal unemployment issues. But this is not the case. The province has one of the lowest average wages in Indonesia as many individuals are involved in the tourism sector which is both seasonal and fluctuates based on such influences as volcanic activity. It is therefore necessary to provide the knowledge and self confidence for school leavers to consider alternative possibilities (entrepreneurship) for securing economic well-being rather than, for example, hotel employment.

Students often benefit from the expertise of business personnel volunteering in schools as these volunteers provide their thoughts and experiences on the operations of the company. It will, of course, be necessary for volunteers to engage students at a level which affords understanding. A Prestasi Junior staff member will accompany volunteers into schools and assist with translation and understanding although Balinese generally have an adequate(passive) understanding of English. The volunteers should be comfortable working with youth and have the relevant business experience and/or knowledge to assist students in their learning. It is strongly suggested that volunteers dress appropriately (modestly) for school based visits as each individual will be entering classrooms. Volunteers will not be able to enter schools without the assistance of the Prestasi Junior staff member.
Working with these students is never a daunting experience as Balinese are very willing to learn and are, by nature, exceptionally creative. We are sure potential engagement would be an inspiring experience for both volunteers and students.
