Reduce inequality within and among countries
Measures against discrimination are essential for achieving Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 10, “Reduced Inequalities.” These measures include implementing policies that promote equality across all social, economic, and political spheres. Efforts focus on eliminating barriers faced by marginalized groups, ensuring equal opportunities in education, employment, and healthcare. By actively challenging biases and fostering inclusive environments, these actions aim to reduce disparities, enhance social justice, and create a more equitable world, aligning with the objectives of SDG 10.
Universitas Indonesia (UI) is committed to becoming a world-class research university that is inclusive and equitable, as reflected in its vision and mission. UI implements a non-discriminatory admissions policy, meaning the student admission process is conducted without regard to race, religion, gender, ethnicity, or socioeconomic status. This policy ensures that every individual has an equal opportunity to access quality education at UI.
Moreover, UI upholds its 9 Core Values as a moral and ethical foundation in various academic and administrative activities. These values, including integrity, professionalism, and justice, are applied to create an open and supportive campus environment for all students.
To support students from diverse backgrounds, UI offers various scholarship programs such as KIP-Kuliah and the Beasiswa Paripurna untuk Bangsa (BPuB) from the Faculty of Medicine. These programs are designed to ensure that higher education at UI is accessible to everyone, including students from low-income families, so that financial limitations do not hinder academic achievement.
Universitas Indonesia (UI) remains committed to providing educational access to underrepresented groups through various inclusive and non-discriminatory admission pathways. One of these pathways is by offering opportunities to prospective students from low-income backgrounds and underserved regions to access high-quality higher education at UI. Through this policy, UI ensures that higher education is accessible to all segments of society.
In line with this commitment, the City Government of Pariaman also supports increasing educational access for its residents by reopening admissions for new students through the One Family One Graduate Program (SAGA SAJA) for the 2023/2024 academic year. This program aims to provide opportunities for families in Pariaman who do not yet have a member with a university degree. Students admitted into this program will receive financial assistance, covering tuition fees and other allowances, thus reducing the financial burden on families and improving the overall educational level of the community.
Programs like SAGA SAJA demonstrate the synergy between local governments and universities in expanding educational access for disadvantaged communities. This effort not only contributes to improving education in the region but also aligns with UI’s vision to promote inclusion and diversity in higher education.
Universitas Indonesia (UI) has taken planned measures to recruit students, staff, and faculty from underrepresented groups as part of its commitment to inclusion and diversity. One of the manifestations of this effort is through the provision of various scholarship programs and special admissions pathways, including those for individuals with disabilities.
One such program supporting this commitment is the Higher Education Affirmative Scholarship (ADik) for Persons with Disabilities in 2023. This program offers opportunities for students with disabilities who demonstrate academic potential but face financial constraints to continue their education at UI. Through this scholarship, recipients receive tuition assistance and living allowances, allowing them to focus on their studies without financial worries. This initiative demonstrates UI’s dedication to creating an inclusive, equitable, and non-discriminatory educational environment, in line with its vision to support diversity within the academic community.
Universitas Indonesia (UI) is committed to supporting the achievement of SDG 10: Reduced Inequalities, which aims to reduce disparities in various aspects of life, including social, economic, and educational spheres. Several initiatives have been undertaken by different faculties at UI to fulfill this commitment.
The Faculty of Public Health (FKM UI) actively participates in educating and raising public awareness about inequality issues, particularly in the health sector. Their programs focus on ensuring that health services and education are accessible to all segments of society, regardless of their economic background. One advantage of this initiative is its direct impact on public health, but the challenge lies in reaching remote or marginalized communities effectively.
At the Faculty of Administrative Sciences (FIA UI), special attention is given to reducing inequality by offering scholarships, academic support, and capacity-building programs for students from disadvantaged backgrounds. FIA UI integrates equality principles in education and skill development. The strength of this approach is its long-term potential to foster social mobility, though it can be limited by resource constraints.
Additionally, UI’s Vocational Program highlights the role of educators in creating inclusive and equitable education through materials like the Educator’s Pocketbook. The program emphasizes improving access to quality education for all, especially for those from underserved regions. The benefit of this initiative is that it equips educators with the tools to promote equality, though its effectiveness depends on how well these materials are implemented across diverse educational contexts.
These efforts across various faculties align with Universitas Indonesia’s vision of becoming an inclusive and fair institution, fostering an academic environment that supports equality and promotes the reduction of inequalities in different areas.
Universitas Indonesia has a committee, office, or officer responsible for diversity and equity, assigned by the administration or governing body to provide advice and implement policies, programs, and training related to diversity, equity, inclusion, and human rights on campus. The Board of Professors at FKUI consists of professors who play a crucial role in maintaining academic quality and integrity in FKUI. This board provides strategic advice on the development of medical education, research, and community service. Meanwhile, the Academic Senate of FKUI functions as an institution that establishes academic policies, oversees educational quality, and ensures that all programs are carried out according to high medical education standards.
On the other hand, the Faculty of Public Health at UI (FKM UI) is also actively involved in various initiatives that support the reduction of inequalities, in line with SDG 10. FKM UI promotes inclusivity in the health sector by providing more equitable access to education and developing programs focused on improving the welfare of socially and economically vulnerable communities. These efforts reflect a strong synergy between the Faculty of Medicine and the Faculty of Public Health at UI in creating a sustainable, inclusive, and equitable academic environment.
The Universitas Indonesia (UI) continues to strengthen its role in supporting students’ mental health and well-being through various programs and collaborations. UI Satellite Clinic, Makara Dirmawa UI, ILUNI UI, UI Psychology, and the UI Student Executive Board (BEM UI) have collaborated to launch an initiative aimed at enhancing mental health services among UI students. This initiative is expected to provide wider access for students to counseling and psychological support services.
One of the key implementations of this collaboration is the launch of the online platform Seek Help, initiated by Makara Counseling UI. This platform is designed to make it easier for students to seek professional help for mental health issues. On this platform, students can find information on available counseling services, including sessions with professional psychologists and counselors. In addition, the Student Wellness Center at the Faculty of Economics and Business UI (FEB UI) actively organizes activities to support student mental health. In October, coinciding with Mental Health Month, the Student Wellness Center, along with Adkesma BEM FEB UI, held a Wellness Festival aimed at raising awareness about the importance of mental health among students.
UI is also actively integrating the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly SDG 10 (Reduced Inequalities), into its well-being initiatives. These efforts are aimed at reducing the gap in access to mental health services for students and ensuring that all students, regardless of background, can obtain the necessary services. The Faculty of Public Health UI (FKM UI) supports this agenda through programs aligned with the SDGs, including initiatives focused on mental health.
Furthermore, the Universitas Indonesia also runs counseling programs across various faculties, such as the FEB UI Counseling and Guidance Program and Ruang Berkiisah by UI Vocational Education, where students are given the opportunity to talk with peer counselors, receive emotional support, and share their experiences. These programs are designed to foster solidarity and provide a safe space for students facing psychological challenges.
