Comprehensive education”.

The inauguration activity is an annual activity that symbolizes the official opening of the activities of the UI Mengajar Movement. The event was full of speeches.

On that occasion, Nuril Furkan, as representative of the Directorate of Secondary Education and Special Education Teachers of the Ministry of Education, Culture, Research and Technology, stated that close attention must be paid to the rate of participation in education in Indonesia, from middle to high level. “Policies for equitable distribution and expanding access to education need a deeper approach,” he said in a UI statement.

Nuril also highlighted the role of students in realizing educational equality because they still have ideals in this regard. “Nothing changes the condition of a people except the people themselves,” she said.

Paulus Wirutomo, professor of Sociology of Education at FISIP UI, underlined the importance of the school’s function as a social elevator. According to him, schools play an important role in raising a person’s social status and position.

Therefore, UI Mengajar Movement can be part of community service to create a better life for society through education in schools. Especially considering that not all schools have enough teachers or facilities.

“Efforts to go to the regions due to teacher shortages can solve the problem. Even if it doesn’t solve the problem, the activity of going to the regions to teach is already something that has an impact,” Paulus said.
