Nusantara Awakening Party (Indonesian: Partai Kebangkitan Nusantara, PKN) is a political party in Indonesia founded on January 7, 2022, and received legal recognition from the Ministry of Law and Human Rights in January 2022.

The party was founded by former Democratic Party legislator I Gede Pasek Suardika, who became the first party head, along with other expelled cadres. The party was established by taking over a minor party, the Functional Party of Struggle (Partai Karya Perjuangan), which had been inactive after failing to participate in elections.[1]

The party qualified to participate in 2024 Indonesian general election, along with four other new parties, after fulfilling administrative criteria and actual verification by the KPU RI in December 2022.[2] The party declared itself to be neutral in the 2024 presidential election.[3]
