The Australia-Indonesia Knowledge and Innovation Collaboration Partnership Program (KONEKSI) is a collaborative initiative between the Government of Australia and the Government of Indonesia in the Indonesian knowledge and innovation sector. KONEKSI's goal is to achieve an enduring relationship between Indonesia and Australia that advances mutual interest and supports Indonesia's inclusive and sustainable development. The purpose of the programme is to increase the use of knowledge-based solutions for inclusive and sustainable policies and technologies.

It supports both the knowledge to policy cycle (K2P) and the knowledge to innovation cycle (K2I), in a complementary and synergistic way. KONEKSI focuses on two End of Investment Outcomes (EOIOs):
