PKB Holds First Awards for Santri and Pesantren Innovation

Indonesia’s PKB held its first awards for santri and pesantren innovation at the peak celebration of National Santri Day 2026.

The event took place at the party’s headquarters in Jakarta on Tuesday, November 10.

PKB leader Muhaimin Iskandar spoke at the celebration and said he was proud of the event.

The awards recognized creative work by santri and innovation by pesantren, or Islamic boarding schools.

PKB said pesantren have grown beyond places of learning into centres of social support and economic empowerment.

The party said supporting their innovations can help santri’s creativity have a wider impact, and described the awards as a sign of pesantren adapting to modern times.
