I participated in Global Summer Programme at Singapore Management University on July 2019. I believe UGM has done a very great job in encouraging me to take an international exposure opportunity as it seeks to facilitate its students with a world-class education that enables them to possess “Locally Rooted, Globally Respected” attitude. With a specific focus on participating in Double Degree Program or Exchange, it is highly likely that the programs will be effective in harnessing the ability of its students to make UGM proud on the global stage. So challenge yourself and take international exposure opportunities offered by UGM!

I can’t be more grateful! It’s such an honour for me to be an exchange student at the University of the Philippines, Los Banos. It was an enchanting experience, and I believe that study abroad is a perfect way to step out your comfort zone. It’s a journey of self-discovery! The Philippines is a long lost sibling of Indonesia. I find quite a lot of similarity between our languages, and it was very interesting when I discussed that with my fellow Filipino Friends.

This year’s AYIEP will be held with the theme of “Fostering Youth’s Initiative in ASEAN Development” which carries the spirit of ASEAN unity and integrity.

ASEAN youth have a high level of mobility, especially with the rapid advancement of technology. They are also the main actors in some production chains and business within the region. Furthermore, they play a significant role as potential leaders who will steer ASEAN regional policies in the future. Hence, it is undeniable for the ASEAN Youth to collectively form a central agency with strong influence in giving meaning to this activity.

The successful implementation of the 2020 Virtual Summer Course 2020 on Interprofessional Health Care – Health 4.0: Management and Technologies for Improving Primary Healthcare in Developing Countries encourage the Faculty of Medicine, Public Health and Nursing (FK-KMK) together with the Faculty of Dentistry and the Faculty of Pharmacy, Gadjah Mada University submitted a proposal in 2021 as continuity of learning and training programs for interprofessional education in the community with current relevant topics. Traditional communities have a dependence on various plants as a source of food, medicine, and traditional ceremonies. Local knowledge about existing plants is developed based on experiences that have been tested over centuries and adapted to local cultural and environmental conditions. This knowledge is known as ‘local wisdom’. Local wisdom is more than just a concept. This local wisdom is a powerful tool that has the potential to be used throughout Asia and the world in the world of Health, both in health care and health maintenance.  The sufficient scientific evidence and better presentation are needed to implement local wisdom amid modernization.FK-KMK together with Faculty of Dentistry and Faculty of Pharmacy created a Virtual Summer Course on Interprofessional Health Care – Complementary Healthcare and Functional Food to support innovation in integrating superior programs across disciplines of UGM in providing advocacy and service implementation integrated health.

The summer course on the nexus between traditional ecological knowledge and modern agricultural practices in the Faculty of Agriculture UGM is of great significance due to several reasons. First, local wisdom is one priority of the ‘Three Principles of Higher Education, comprises of education, research, and community service’) of Universitas Gadjah Mada. The topic is in line with the Faculty of Agriculture’s research and community service roadmap: “smart eco-bioproduction”.

The Faculty of Agriculture has accumulated a list of experiences in education, research, and community service. In education, the Faculty of Agriculture has been actively involved in the summer school of food security and climate change in 2017-2019. The first year of the summer school took agroforestry as the main topic, the second year looked at integrated farming in palm oil plantation, and the third year compared monoculture with cacao polyculture farming system. The Faculty of Agriculture has also been progressively studied the interconnectedness between TEK and modern agricultural practices. This includes research on agroforestry and integrated farming technology in cooperation with the Faculty of Forestry, Faculty of Agricultural Technology, and Indonesian State Forestry Company of the Central Java Province. In collaboration with Ghent University, Belgium, the Faculty of Agriculture also did research in organic agriculture in Bantul, Yogyakarta, which guided small-scale farmers in the area toward organic agricultural practices and aimed for organic certification of the local farmers’ groups.

 ASEAN is now undergoing the process of developing an ASEAN Economic Community (AEC) in 2015 which will become a single market and production base. In the process of realizing this AEC, increasing the competitiveness of food, agriculture, and livestock products in the international market, and empowering farmers through the promotion of agricultural cooperatives have become regional priorities. New and cross-sectoral issues such as food security, climate change mitigation, and adaptation for the agriculture and livestock sector, are also part of the priorities. Through harmonization of quality and standards, food safety assurance, and standardization of trade certification, ASEAN agricultural products are expected to be ready to compete in the global market by offering safe, healthy, and quality food. ASEAN has developed Good Agricultural Practices (GAP), Good Animal Husbandry Practices (GAHP), Good Hygiene Practices (GHP), Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP), and Hazard Analysis Critical Control points (HACCP), standards for production, harvest, and post handling. – agricultural product harvests, limits on maximum pesticide residues, criteria for the accreditation of livestock and livestock products businesses, GMP guidelines for shrimp, and a “code of conduct” for responsible fisheries, to be used as a reference in developing national priorities and a means to support industrial development.
