About CIFP

CIFP is an international conference that has been the meeting point of foreign policy communities at home and abroad, which comprise of government officials and civil societies such as such as government institutions, diplomatic corps in Jakarta, think tanks, opinion makers, diaspora, private corporate, business community, journalists, various university lecturers from all over Indonesia, students and all parties involved in the international relations sphere.

The CIFP has earned the reputation as “The World’s Largest Foreign Policy Conference” with over 11,000 attendees. We also take pride in the fact that the CIFP is unlike any other–what has been described by Director of Perth US-Asia Center Gordon Flake as “a combination of an international seminar and a rock concert,” reflecting how rare for a foreign policy conference to display a festive, high-energy atmosphere attended by thousands of people, mostly young people.
