SDGs 5: Gender Equality

Muhammad Yasir Ramadan, One of the Winners of the #WaditraPralaga Content Competition Held by the Karaton Ngayogyakarta Hadiningrat

HEADLINESNews ReleaseSDGs 11: Sustainable cities and communitiesSDGs 5: Gender equalityStudent's Activity Thursday, 27 March 2025

Yogyakarta, 27/3/2025 – On Tuesday, March 4, 2025, the Instagram account @kratonjogja.event announced the winner of a competition. Not a contest to get a wife, but the #WaditraPralaga Content Competition held on two platforms, namely Instagram and TikTok. In the announcement, there was one student from the Javanese Language, Literature, and Culture study program at UGM who was announced as the winner. The student is Muhammad Yasir Ramadan with NIM 24/542781/SA/23331. 

The theme of the content competition was of course around Waditra Pralaga because it was still related to a series of closings from the Paramaiswari exhibition. According to Bausastra, Waditra itself means music or percussion, while pralaga means war. This is in line with the performance presented by the palace, namely a battle between male and female orchestra players. What the palace wants to show is that women have the same potential as men.

Yasir stated that there was actually no special reason for him to join this competition. Yasir happened to hear this announcement while watching Waditra Pralaga at Kagungan Dalem. While watching, the MC announced that there would be a TikTok and Instagram content competition. The content can discuss anything, as long as it is still related to Waditra Pralaga. It was stated that one of the criteria for the winner would be calculated from the total number of viewers on the content, with the provision of using the hashtag #WaditraPralaga and by tagging the social media accounts of Karaton Yogyakarta. Honestly, Yasir did not expect that he would be announced as one of the winners of this competition because the number of viewers of his content was not as many as other content. However, when his name was included in one of the 10 winners, Yasir was happy.

According to Yasir, the difficulty in preparing the content was predicting the direction of the audience’s interest. With the analysis and video material that Yasir had recorded, he chose a video containing music that many people knew. With this, Yasir chose a video when the players performed one of the soundtracks in the film “Pirates of the Caribbean”.

The prize that Yasir received for winning the competition was the opportunity to watch the Opening of the Hamong Nagari Exhibition with the performance of the Abdi Dalem Fashion Show accompanied by Acapella by the Yogyakarta Royal Orchestra for free. In addition to being free, the winner also got a special place, where they got the front seat. According to Yasir, the event was very memorable because it was opened directly by Ngarsa Dalem and was also attended by G.K.R. Bendara, K.P.H. Natanegara, and also Wayah Dalem (the sultan’s grandson). In addition, what made this experience memorable was the Abdi Dalem fashion show, which is very rare to find now. Finally, there was also a performance accompanied by the Yogyakarta Royal Choir which made this event more lively and gave a magnificent impression.

RUBIKON Journal Achieves SINTA 3 Accreditation! A Major Step in Transnational Studies

HEADLINESNews ReleaseSDGs 17: Partnerships for the GoalsSDGs 4: Quality EducationSDGs 5: Gender equality Thursday, 27 March 2025

Yogyakarta, March 21, 2025 – RUBIKON: Journal of Transnational American Studies has officially achieved SINTA 3 accreditation, as stated in the Decree of the Directorate General of Higher Education, Research, and Technology Number 0173/C3/DT.05.00/2025, issued on March 21, 2025. This achievement further strengthens Rubikon’s position as one of the most influential academic journals in Indonesia in the field of American Studies and expands its reach in global academic discourse.

Managed by the Master’s Program in American Studies, Universitas Gadjah Mada (UGM), Rubikon is an academic journal that focuses on transnational studies, particularly examining American influences beyond its borders, including in Indonesia. The journal is led by Editor-in-Chief, Prof. Dr. Ida Rochani Adi, S.U., and Managing Editor, Dr. Aris Munandar, M. Hum., and supported by an editorial team consisting of scholars from various universities in Indonesia and abroad, such as Northeast Normal University (China), Deakin University (Australia), and Victoria University of Wellington (New Zealand). Since its inception, Rubikon has also collaborated with the American Studies Society of Indonesia (ASSINDO), strengthening its academic network in American Studies.

As a transnational journal, Rubikon explores a wide range of topics, including American literature and culture, society and minority groups, popular culture and globalization, politics and foreign policy, as well as American hegemony in the digital era. The name Rubikon is derived from the historic Rubicon River, which symbolizes a point of no return—a philosophy that reflects the journal’s mission to open new perspectives and provide fresh insights into academic studies.

The achievement of SINTA 3 accreditation not only serves as a testament to Rubikon’s academic quality but also reinforces its contribution to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). As an open-access journal, Rubikon supports SDG 4: Quality Education by providing free academic publications accessible to anyone, ensuring the broad dissemination of knowledge without financial barriers. Moreover, many published articles focus on SDG 5: Gender Equality and SDG 10: Reduced Inequalities, addressing the representation of minority and gender groups in American culture and examining how these issues resonate in global contexts, including Indonesia. On a larger scale, Rubikon also aligns with SDG 17: Partnerships for the Goals by fostering international academic collaborations, enriching scholarly discussions, and strengthening research networks in transnational studies.

Published twice a year and free of charge, Rubikon continues to provide opportunities for academics and researchers to contribute their ideas and expand the horizons of transnational studies. With its SINTA 3 accreditation, the journal is now more firmly positioned as an innovative, inclusive, and impactful academic platform.

HEADLINESNews ReleaseSDGs 10: Reduced InequalitiesSDGs 16: Peace justice and strong institutionsSDGs 4: Quality EducationSDGs 5: Gender equality Wednesday, 26 March 2025

Yogyakarta, 26/3/2025 – The Middle Eastern Culture & Religion Issues (MECRI) Journal has reached an important milestone by receiving SINTA 4 accreditation on Friday, March 21, 2025. Established in 2022, the journal is managed by the Middle Eastern Cultural Studies program within the Department of Intercultural Studies at the Faculty of Cultural Sciences, Universitas Gadjah Mada (FIB UGM). MECRI focuses on the study of language, literature, culture, and religion in the Middle East, providing a valuable platform for researchers to explore the complex interactions between culture and religion and their impact on global society. This accreditation reinforces MECRI’s position as a leading reference journal in cross-cultural studies, particularly regarding the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), especially SDG 4, which emphasizes quality education. 

As an academic platform, MECRI offers researchers, academics, professionals, practitioners, and students a space to share ideas through high-quality empirical and theoretical research articles. Topics covered include social, political, cultural, literary, linguistic, and religious studies related to Middle Eastern Studies. The journal publishes articles regularly in July and December and follows a strict peer-review process conducted by a team of editors and reviewers from leading universities in Indonesia and abroad. MECRI also establishes strategic partnerships with Ittihad Mudarrisin Lugah Arabiyyah (IMLA) Indonesia—a national organization that oversees Arabic language teachers—and the International Center for Arab Studies and Training (ICAST) in Egypt. These collaborations not only ensure the maintenance of academic quality but also enhance the journal’s relevance to the development of global science. 

The SINTA 4 accreditation represents a significant opportunity for MECRI to further promote cross-cultural dialogue through research on Middle Eastern language, literature, religion, and culture. The published articles enrich academic understanding and offer practical solutions to various global challenges. With a broad range of topics, MECRI has featured numerous insightful articles on contemporary issues in the Middle East, such as feminism, social inequality, cultural diplomacy, and peace efforts. These studies contribute to the achievement of several other SDGs, including SDG 5 on gender equality, SDG 10 on reducing social inequality, and SDG 16 on peace and justice. 

As part of its commitment to the SDGs, MECRI continues to strive to be a research platform that promotes cross-cultural understanding for a more inclusive world. With this achievement, MECRI is poised to advance as a leading force in innovative and globally impactful Middle Eastern studies.

From Master’s in Literature to the International Stage: Nur Fitriyanti Aspany Shines at MIWF Emerging Writers Makassar International Writers Festival (MIWF) 2025

HEADLINESNews ReleaseSDGs 11: Sustainable cities and communitiesSDGs 16: Peace justice and strong institutionsSDGs 4: Quality EducationSDGs 5: Gender equality Wednesday, 26 March 2025

Yogyakarta, 26/3/2025 – Amidst the vibrant celebrations of Indonesia’s Independence Day, an inspiring achievement emerges from the literary world. Nur Fitrianti Aspany, an alumna of the Master’s Program in Literature, has been selected as one of the seven chosen writers in the prestigious Emerging Writers program at the Makassar International Writers Festival (MIWF) 2025, themed “Land and Hand.”

MIWF 2025, set to take place from May 29 to June 1, carries the theme “Land and Hand” as a form of resistance against various acts of land appropriation, oppression, and environmental destruction that persist in different regions. This year, the festival’s visual artwork is created by Taufiqurrahman ‘Kifu,’ a multidisciplinary artist from Palu, Central Sulawesi.

As in previous years, MIWF provides an opportunity for writers to participate by submitting works in various forms, including poetry, short stories, novels, and literary criticism. This year, 256 applicants from diverse backgrounds submitted outstanding works in various genres. Out of these hundreds of submissions, only seven writers were selected, including Nur Fitrianti Aspany.

Nur Fitrianti captivated the jury with two of her works: a digital poem titled “Aporia dan Epiphany dalam Sebuah Puisi Digital“ and a printed poem titled “Tragedi yang Dibalut Serendipity.“ These works were born from her creative process under the mentorship of Prof. Dr. Faruk, S.U., a distinguished cultural studies expert and professor at Gadjah Mada University.

Reflecting on her achievement, Nur Fitrianti admitted that she initially had doubts about participating, given the fierce competition. However, she remained consistent in her writing, which eventually led her to this valuable opportunity. “At first, I wasn’t sure. Compared to my peers, I wondered if I could compete in both fiction and non-fiction. But when this opportunity arose, I happened to have some works ready, and fortunately, I never stopped writing,” she said.

Nur Fitrianti Aspany’s accomplishment is a testament to how passion and perseverance in the creative process can yield remarkable results. Her success at MIWF 2025 is not only a proud moment for the Master’s Program in Literature but also an inspiration for the younger generation to continue creating and contributing to the literary world.

Arabic Literature Study Program student presents her ideas related to Muslimah Empowering in Asean Muslimah Exposure 2024 in Malaysia

HEADLINESNews ReleaseSDGSSDGs 4: Quality EducationSDGs 5: Gender equalitySTICKY NEWSStudent's ActivitySustainable Development Goals Tuesday, 7 January 2025

Malaysia, 7/12/2024 – Two students of the Arabic literature study program successfully presented their essays related to women’s empowerment in the Asean Muslimah Exposure 2024 (AME 2024) event in Malaysia. The program organized by the Qurthubiyah Institute organization was held from December 6 to 8, 2024. As an organization, Qurthubiyah Institute aims to be a forum for empowering Muslim women with character, knowledge, and skilled personality by internalizing Islamic values in life. Thus, the Asean Muslimah Exposure program is designed to increase Indonesian Muslimah’s understanding of social issues through hands-on learning experiences in Asean countries.

In the AME 2024 program, there are three main activities held on Saturday, December 7, 2024. The three activities are Essay Presentation, Panel Discussion, and Campus Tour which took place at the International Islamic University of Malaysia (IIUM) and University Malaya (UM). Essay Presentation and Panel Discussion activities held at IIUM were not only attended by AME 2024 participants, but also attended by IIUM students who are members of the Islamic Studies Forum Indonesia (ISFI) organization.

In this activity, there were several delegates who presented their papers, and two of them were students of the Arabic Literature Study Program, Faculty of Humanities, Universitas Gadjah Mada. The first student was Vanisa Putri Andarista with her essay entitled The Trend of Delaying Marriage “Waithood” In Indonesian Women and How Islam Views It. The essay was awarded The Best Analytical Perspective. While the second student, Ragil Samas Khofifatunnur conveyed ideas in his essay entitled The relevance of “Risalah Perempuan Berkemajuan” to Increasing The Inclusiveness of Women’s Empowerment In Village, and won The Best Delegates Paper award.

From the series of AME 2024 activities, students not only gain experience in making and presenting their essays, but also gain abundant knowledge through the discussions that have been held. In addition, students are also more familiar with the dynamics of lectures in Malaysia, the socio-cultural conditions of the local community, and how Islamic values are implemented there. With the many experiences and insights that have been gained, students are expected to play an active role in disseminating these insights so that the benefits are received by more people, as is the goal of the Qurthubiyah Institute.
