Faculty of Cultural Sciences Holds Sacrificial Event: A Manifestation of Care and Solidarity within the Academic Community

AcademicSDGs 1: No povertySDGs 2: Zero HungerSDGs 3: Good health and well-being Wednesday, 11 June 2025

Yogyakarta, 8/6/2025 – The Faculty of Cultural Sciences (FIB) at Universitas Gadjah Mada (UGM) held a sacrificial animal slaughter event on 8 June 2025 as part of its commitment to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly those related to ending poverty and hunger. The event began at 08:00 AM and continued until all activities were completed.

This year, the faculty sacrificed three healthy and well-sized cows, ensuring that the meat could benefit as many underprivileged families as possible. Beyond fulfilling a religious obligation, the sacrificial event also served as a social initiative aimed at alleviating hunger and supporting vulnerable communities.

The event opened with a prayer led by Mr. Jawat, which reminded participants of the spiritual importance of sharing and caring for others. The atmosphere encouraged reflection on the values of togetherness and compassion that lie at the heart of the sacrificial tradition.

The Dean of FIB UGM delivered a speech affirming the faculty’s role in upholding social responsibility. The event was viewed not only as a religious tradition but also as a meaningful contribution to addressing social issues such as poverty and food security, in alignment with the SDGs.

Following the Dean’s remarks, Mr. Musadad, Chairman of the Takmir, expressed his appreciation for the active participation of faculty members and students. He emphasized the importance of collective efforts and the spirit of solidarity in supporting those in need.

The meat from the sacrificed animals will be distributed to various local communities with the goal of reaching as many families as possible and ensuring their access to nutritious food. This initiative directly supports the SDGs’ mission to end hunger and promote food security for all.

Through the implementation of this sacrificial event, the Faculty of Cultural Sciences demonstrates its ongoing commitment to social responsibility and sets an example for other institutions in fostering compassion and driving positive change in society.

Inauguration of Prof. Dr. Atik Triratnawati, M.A. as Professor of Health Anthropology at the Faculty of Cultural Sciences

AcademicNews ReleaseSDGs 3: Good health and well-being Tuesday, 10 June 2025

Yogyakarta, June/10/2025 – The UGM Senate Hall was filled with a sense of anticipation as members of the academic community gathered to witness the inauguration of Prof. Dr. Atik Triratnawati, M.A., a prominent figure in the field of Health Anthropology at Universitas Gadjah Mada (UGM). The event, held from 09:00 to 10:00 WIB, featured an inspiring inaugural speech titled “Masuk Angin as a Cultural Phenomenon.”

In her address, Prof. Atik emphasized that three cultural dimensions—systems of ideas, cultural behavior, and cultural artifacts (Spradley, 1972)—can be used to understand the concept of masuk angin. She explained that masuk angin as a system of ideas reflects cultural conceptions of health, illness, and traditional healing philosophies.

As cultural behavior, masuk angin is evident in how the Javanese people choose various healing methods. Prof. Atik highlighted traditional practices such as using ancient coins for kerokan (a traditional scraping therapy), along with balms, oils, and spices—whether in drink form or packaged in sachets—as important components of the healing process (Triratnawati, 2012).

She also pointed out that the term masuk angin has evolved beyond its original health-related context and is now used metaphorically in political and economic discourse. This shift illustrates the dynamic nature of cultural expressions and their relevance in multiple aspects of daily life.

Prof. Atik’s research aligns with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly in promoting access to affordable medicine and achieving health equity. She stressed that understanding cultural practices surrounding health is key to developing effective and inclusive healthcare strategies.

The event was attended by distinguished guests, including academics, students, and health practitioners, all eager to engage with Prof. Atik’s insights. The atmosphere reflected deep academic interest and enthusiasm, as attendees acknowledged the importance of integrating cultural perspectives into health discourse.

In her closing remarks, Prof. Atik encouraged the audience to appreciate the richness of cultural knowledge and its impact on health and well-being. She called for collective efforts to promote affordable healthcare and to consider cultural contexts when addressing health issues.

The inauguration of Prof. Dr. Atik Triratnawati, M.A. marked a significant milestone in her academic journey and underscored the vital role of anthropology in understanding health practices. Her work serves as a strong reminder of the need for cultural sensitivity in healthcare to help achieve the SDGs.

As the event concluded, participants left with renewed inspiration, motivated by Prof. Atik’s dedication to bridging the worlds of culture and health. The UGM academic community looks forward to her continued contributions to the advancement of Health Anthropology and inclusive healthcare solutions.

Korean Language and Culture Students of UGM Successfully Win Top Awards at KSI Yogyakarta 2025 Competition

HEADLINESNews ReleaseSDGs 17: Partnerships for the GoalsSDGs 4: Quality Education Tuesday, 3 June 2025

Yogyakarta, May 18, 2025 — Students of the Korean Language and Culture Study Program, Faculty of Cultural Sciences, Universitas Gadjah Mada once again achieved outstanding success at the King Sejong Institute (KSI) Yogyakarta 2025 Speech and Writing Competition. The event was held on Sunday, May 18, 2025, at the Soegondo Building, Faculty of Cultural Sciences UGM, and was attended by active KSI students, KSI alumni, as well as students of the Korean Language and Culture Study Program.

In this competition, two students of the Korean Language and Culture Study Program succeeded in achieving remarkable accomplishments. Adzini Nurul Fatima Juliani won 1st Place in the Writing category, while Adhyva Kaana Taqqiyaa won 3rd Place in the Speaking category. These achievements reflect the students’ comprehensive Korean language skills, both oral and written, and demonstrate the results of continuous learning within the study program.

One of the winners, Adzini, shared her enthusiasm for participating in the competition. “Since the beginning, I had been looking forward to KSI’s competition, so when the opportunity came, I immediately joined both the writing and speaking contests. I personally feel more confident in writing because it is my hobby, especially as the theme was about ‘dreams,’ which felt very close to me. The words just flowed naturally, as if I was writing in my diary. In my piece, I portrayed dreams through the metaphor ‘마음속에 있는 불빛이’ (the light inside the heart) with an emotional nuance to give it more depth. I’m so happy that my message was delivered and I was selected as the 1st place winner. This competition has been a valuable experience to test my abilities. I hope KSI continues to hold such events, and that more participants will join in the future. Thank you! KSI Yogyakarta 화이팅!”

Meanwhile, Adhyva, who participated in the speaking category, also shared her experience. “처음으로 참가한 대회라 정말 떨리기도 하고 설레기도 했어요. 전체적으로 너무 즐거웠고, 한국어문화학과 학생으로서 정말 값진 경험이었어요.” (“This was the first competition I’ve participated in, so I felt both nervous and excited. Overall, it was very enjoyable, and as a student of the Korean Language and Culture Program, it was truly a valuable experience.”)

The students’ participation in this event not only serves as a platform for developing Korean language proficiency but also contributes to supporting the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly Goal 4 (Quality Education) and Goal 17 (Partnerships for the Goals), through strengthening inter-institutional collaboration and enhancing the quality of globally-oriented education
