Prienta, a Double Degree student of the Master of Urban and Regional Planning (MPWK) Program at UGM, was selected as one of the delegates for the Youth Townhall Road to Y20 Indonesia 2025, held on August 2, 2025 at the Jakarta Library Hall, Taman Ismail Marzuki. This activity was part of the Road to Y20 Summit series leading up to the Y20 Summit in South Africa, serving as an important forum to gather the voices of Indonesian youth before being brought to the global stage.
The Youth Townhall was initiated by Indonesian Youth Diplomacy (IYD), a non-profit youth organization joined by Prienta. IYD is the official body responsible for selecting and facilitating Indonesian youth to participate in the Y20 Summit, the official Youth Engagement Group of the G20 Leaders Summit, as well as serving as the Youth Focal Point to the Republic of Indonesia’s G20 Sherpa. Prienta was motivated to participate due to the participatory nature of the program, which focuses on listening to youth voices through focus group discussions and consultations, later compiled into a communiqué to be presented at the Y20 Summit in South Africa. “This activity clearly shows that it can bring the voices of young people from the grassroots to the international level, quite literally and directly,” she said.
