HKS Indonesia Program

Launched in 2010 with a $10.5 million gift from the Rajawali Foundation, the Harvard Kennedy School Indonesia Program promotes research, education, and capacity building in support of democratic governance and institutional development in Indonesia. As the world’s largest majority Muslim democracy, Indonesia continues to be an important model for positive institutional change. Formerly an authoritarian regime, Indonesia recently celebrated its 10th anniversary as a multiparty democracy.

Events

• September 14, 2010, Jakarta, Indonesia: Dean Ellwood visited Indonesia in September as part of his Harvard Kennedy School tour of Asian countries. He delivered the public address, “Creating Jobs, Reducing Poverty, and Improving the Welfare of the People: Acting in Time on Hard Problems,” at the Presidential Palace in Jakarta. Present at this lecture were both Indonesian President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono and Vice President Boediono along with the full Indonesian Cabinet, heads of various state agencies and commissions, and representatives from business and academic communities.Dean Ellwood also met Harvard alumni and representatives from Indonesian universities.
• October 12, 2010, Cambridge, MA: Join us for the public lecture, “Hot Topics from Indonesia: The World’s Most Pressing Issues from the Perspective of the World’s Largest Majority-Muslim Democracy.”

Student Research Grants

The HKS Indonesia Program offers student research grants to Harvard University students to support independent research or other forms of study conducted in Indonesia.

Indonesian Research Fellows

The HKS Indonesia Program invites high-caliber Indonesian researchers, academics, and practitioners to apply for Indonesia Research Fellowships for the period January 15 to June 15, 2011 in order to pursue independent research projects in residence at HKS. The opportunity will be open to candidates from government, academia, and independent researcher communities. Preference will be given to candidates whose proposed area of research is linked to the Research Priorities of the HKS Indonesia Program. Applications will require a proposal describing research or project to be conducted, including the main policy questions to be examined, the value to Indonesia, the relevant literature and data, the research methodology to be used, the results to be achieved, the relationship of this proposed Research Fellowship to any previous or future research.

Research

The HKS Indonesia Program develops research projects on key policy challenges facing the country. Building upon the Ash Center’s intellectual capital—with faculty who conduct cutting-edge research on democracy, governance, and development—the HKS Indonesia Program explores both how Indonesia can serve as a model to other democratizing countries and how its political and economic institutions can be reformed to ensure that its fledgling democracy endures and thrives. The Program works closely with Indonesian scholars, policymakers, and business leaders to strengthen policy education and research in Indonesia and link Indonesia to regional and global knowledge networks. Its conferences facilitate the dissemination of research results.

Jika Anda adalah mahasiswa Indonesia yang terdaftar di perguruan tinggi atau sekolah tinggi di Indonesia berusia 18-24 tahun pada 1 September 2010. Aktif dalam kegiatan-kegiatan pelestarian lingkungan, juga cakap berkomunikasi dalam bahasa Inggris, baik lisan maupun tulisan, studi ke Jerman Bayer Young Enviromental Envoy bisa menjadi pilihan.

At a glance: In Partnership with the United Nations Environment Programme

Bayer has a well-established tradition of environmental protection, which began more than 100 years ago when it set up its Wastewater Commission at its production plants at Leverkusen, Germany, in 1901. Since then Bayer has consistently stuck to the principle of more environmental protection, health protection, safety and Sustainable Development.

As a research-based enterprise, Bayer also places great emphasis on promoting science education for young people and has therefore been committed to promoting youth environmental programs for many years. In cooperation with the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) Bayer organizes and promotes a number of specific projects which aim to improve knowledge about the environment among young people and support them in their environmental commitment. One of these projects is the “Bayer Young Environmental Envoy Program”.

Under this program, selected students go to Germany on a weeklong study tour to experience how environmental protection is practiced by people, government and industry in one of the leading countries with regards to technology and environmental awareness.

The visit to the global headquarters of the Bayer Group in Germany demonstrates how companies – through product development and responsible manufacturing processes – contribute to sustainable development.

Originally initiated in 1998 as a local project in Thailand, the concept was subsequently extended to Brazil, Chile, China, Colombia, Ecuador, India, Indonesia, Kenya, Malaysia, Peru, the Philippines, Singapore, South Africa, South Korea, Venezuela and Vietnam. In 2010, Argentina joins the program for the first time.

The program has received widespread praise. Philippine’s President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo describes the initiative as ‘a meritorious project, particularly in the wake of pressing environmental problems in the country’. Associate Professor Ho Peng Kee, Singapore’s Senior Minister of State for Law and Home Affairs said that Bayer has put together a program that deserves praise, and will stand to go a long way in promoting sustainable development among youth in Asia. Carmen Arévalo, Colombian Vice-Minister of the Environment said that “Corporate projects that give young people the opportunity to actively participate and discuss such an important issue are highly valuable, and the Ministry of Environment and Territorial Development endorses this initiative of Bayer launched in the context of corporate social responsibility.”

Pendaftaran ditutup tanggal 19 Mei 2010. Untuk info beasiswa studi ke Jerman lebih lanjut silahkan lihat di website terkait.
