EVENTS INR HIGHLIGHTED event timing November 2019 23rd - 29th by Andi Bramastha 55 #HIWEEK
The month of November was the pinnacle of this year’s IULI INR. On November 23rd marked the first event of Hi! WEEK. We conducted volume three of Hi! TALKS with the theme of “Understanding People’s Right to Freedom Democracy in Indonesia” in hopes to raise the topic of democracy that is often seen as a political paradigm. We were excited to have Puri K. Putri (Campaign Manager at Amnesty International Indonesia), Noory Okthariza (Researcher in Politics and Social Changes at CSIS), and Fatimah F. Izzati (Researcher at Center for Political Studies, LIPI) as our speakers with Aurelia Vizal (Ambassador of Youth Initiative for Political Participation) acting as the moderator.
