The Sumpah Pemuda (Youth Pledge) of 1928 is a significant moment that highlights the roles of women and youth in Indonesia's struggle for independence. Their involvement stemmed from a shared awareness of the need for unity amidst ethnic and cultural diversity. Youth from organizations like Jong Java united under one nation and language, while women became active in politics, initiating the first Indonesian Women's Congress. In this process, women served as moral leaders, while youth led political consolidation. This involvement contributed to the growth of nationalism and gender equality. This study employs a literature review method to analyze their roles, demonstrating that their collaboration created a strong foundation for national identity and an inclusive independence movement.
