On Thursday, February 22, 2024, at 10:00-15:00 WIB, the Japanese Language and Culture Study Program (BKJ) UGM held an Educational Collaboration activity with Ferris Women University (FWU) from Yokohama, Japan. The activity which became a means of cultural exchange was attended by Sato Akira, Ph.D. as an accompanying lecturer along with 3 Ferris Women University students, as well as lecturers and students of the Japanese Language and Culture Study Program. After the reception by the Head of the Department of Japanese Language and Culture UGM, Tatang Hariri, M.A., Ph.D., lecturers and students of FWU entered the lecture class to conduct discussions and exchange information with UGM students.

The collaboration was divided into two sessions. The first session was with first-year students and the second session was with third-year students. In both sessions, FWU students and BKJ UGM students were divided into three groups to discuss several themes using Japanese. For the first session, the topic of discussion was the differences in student life in Indonesia and Japan, while the second session with third-year students, they discussed the culture and work system in Indonesia and Japan. After the discussion, each group presented the results or important points of their respective discussions using Japanese.

For the academic community, knowledge of cultural differences in various aspects of life is considered important. This is because in addition to being a means to enrich knowledge, knowing cultural differences also increases students’ ability to adapt to other cultures. This educational collaboration activity is expected to train critical thinking skills and encourage students to innovate from the perspectives gained in group discussions. As stated in the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), this collaboration can be a means to build quality education and as a foundation for creating global partnerships.

On Saturday, 2nd of March, 2024, coinciding with the peak event of the 78th FIB UGM Dies Natalis, Gebyar Dies Natalis, the Faculty of Cultural Sciences UGM inaugurated the Literature Library (Perpustra). The inauguration was attended by Prof. Dr. Setiadi, M.Sc., Dean of the Faculty of Cultural Sciences UGM and Director of HR Kompas Gramedia, Sigit Suryanto.

The Literature Library, known by the abbreviation Perpustra, is a new collaborative innovation from the Faculty of Cultural Sciences UGM with Kompas Gramedia in encouraging and supporting literacy culture, especially literary literacy. In addition, Perpustra is also a means of open discussion space for students, lecturers, and residents of FIB UGM.

In front of the R. Soegondo Building, Perpustra is a small yellow container with several popular books for young people. Around Perpustra, there are several bean bags on the fresh green grass lawn of the R. Soegondo Building. This relaxed atmosphere is created with the aim of Perpustra becoming a comfortable and attractive place, especially for students who want to stop by to read the books available. Inside this small yellow container, readers are provided with some popular contemporary literary book options, such as the book Tragedy of the Sword of Justice by Keigo Higashino, Jalan Pulang by Maria Hartiningsih, The Art of Not Giving a F*ck by Mark Manson, and many more choices of literature books.

The presence of Perpustra brings a new spirit to the residents of FIB UGM. Support for expanding knowledge and literacy insights about literature is a real contribution step by FIB UGM to advance the Indonesian literary world.
