Workbook
For Indonesian Families
Keluarga, Identitas, dan Percakapan yang Perlu Kita Miliki
Keluarga is the word. This workbook is how you build what it means for yours.
For the Indonesian family — in Indonesia or abroad — who senses that the conversations they need to have have never quite happened
The Name It First Experience
Indonesia is the world's fourth most populous nation and one of its most ethnically and religiously diverse — over 300 distinct ethnic groups, six recognized religions, and a national identity built on Bhinneka Tunggal Ika: unity in diversity. Yet inside Indonesian families, conversations about identity, intergenerational expectation, and belonging often go unspoken. This workbook provides the structure to have them. Families work through questions of heritage, values, faith practice, language, and shared commitment to produce The Indonesian Families Agreement — a document that reflects who they actually are, not only who they are expected to be.
You can opt into 30-, 60-, and 90-day check-ins from your account. We recommend you do — the point is to see what changed.
Sample questions
- What does Indonesian identity mean in your household — which island, ethnic group, and cultural traditions does your family carry?
- What from your Indonesian heritage does your family actively carry — the language, the food, the religious practices, the community structures?
- What do you want the next generation to understand about Indonesian identity and what your family specifically carries?
