On June 1, 2024 from 4 to 6 pm in the courtyard of Soegondo Building, Faculty of Cultural Sciences, Gadjah Mada University, Palmerah, Yuk! together with Perpustra continued their efforts to enlighten others through literacy discussions with Maman Suherman and Kalis Mardiasih as speakers. They invited literacy communities and publishers as parties who participate in fighting for the literacy movement. Perpustra UGM together with Palmerah, Yuk! has held a discussion related to efforts in nurturing literacy. This discussion highlighted the importance of access to books and efforts to make books as living objects that actively meet their readers, in order to continue our struggle to enlighten each other.
The efforts to fight for and nurture literacy continue, often starting from simple movements, even though they face great challenges. This is an invitation for all of us to move in improving access to knowledge, through words. As a free space to connect with each other in literacy activities, this time Perpustra became a place for participants to participate in discussions with enthusiasm, sharing the conditions of literacy in their respective regions. In addition to participating in the discussion, the attendees at the event could also participate in moving together in literacy with donations at Galang Buku. That’s a brief description of the activity, stay tuned for other interesting activities at Perpustra Yogyakarta!
