Abstract

This study aims to examine the securitization carried out by RDI Urban Refugee Research Group (RDI UREF) through the art exhibition Let’s Walk My Journey in 2022. The group used works of art as a medium to securitize human security issues faced by refugees who are in transit in Indonesia. The issues ranged from uncertain resettlement in a third country to lacking human rights access to legal employment and education in Indonesia. This study uses a qualitative method, with the securitization theory by Barry Buzan and Ole Wæver in place. The author found that the securitization carried out by RDI UREF aims to draw the attention of the Indonesian public to make them aware of refugee issues. The group expected the bigger public awareness of the issues to become a stronger force in urging the government to guarantee refugee rights. Let’s Walk My Journey enables UREF to become a securitization actor, with refugees in transit as a referent object and the Indonesian people and government as a targeted audience. In the exhibition, the group uses artworks as speech acts to make the public and government realize that refugee issues are an existential threat they must address and solve together for the sake of humanity.

Abstract

UMKM based on marine products in Panggang Island, Kepulauan Seribu, play an essential role in the coastal economy, yet sanitation and hygiene aspects still need strengthening through environmentally oriented approaches to ensure product quality and business sustainability. This study aims to enhance the capacity of UMKM actors through an initial socialization of community-based partnership empowerment. The activities were conducted using a Participatory Action Research (PAR) approach with a hybrid format, combining face-to-face and online sessions, along with participatory observation and group discussions. The main materials focused on Good Manufacturing Practices, production space management, raw material handling, and local product communication strategies to build consumer trust. The results indicated an increase in collective awareness among UMKM actors regarding hygienic practices, the ability to identify production constraints, and readiness to engage in follow-up training and intensive mentoring. These findings highlight that multi-stakeholder collaboration involving academia, government, and the community can strengthen the UMKM ecosystem, support local economic sustainability, enhance product competitiveness, and reinforce environmental communication strategies.

Abstract

The Indo-Pacific region is currently at risk of developing into a regional security complex. The Indo-Pacific saw a rise in enmity patterns among states in this region. This issue arises because China’s more assertive regional policy, especially the United States, makes other states uneasy. This paper questioned whether China’s aggressiveness was the only factor driving the establishment of AUKUS. Using a qualitative method with interpretative analysis, this paper, therefore, aims to research further the Indo-Pacific’s rising amity and enmity patterns that led to the AUKUS establishment. The authors will employ four variables from Barry Buzan and Ole Wæver’s regional security complex theory, namely boundary, anarchic structure, polarity, and social construction, to comprehend and explain these patterns. Based on the findings, the authors concluded that each of these four variables played a part in changing the Indo-Pacific strategic environment and encouraged the United States, the United Kingdom, and Australia to deepen their partnerships through AUKUS.

Abstract

This paper seeks to examine the cosmopolitan solidarity fostered by the artist collective Taring Padi through their art. The group creates artworks that highlight human security issues across Indonesia, showcasing the works both domestically and internationally to raise awareness among global audiences and cultivate a sense of cosmopolitan solidarity aimed at addressing these issues for the benefit of humanity. This study, therefore, aims to analyze how Taring Padi establishes this solidarity by employing cosmopolitanism theory and utilizing a qualitative research method, with data gathered from observation, interviews, and literature review. This paper found that Taring Padi establishes cosmopolitan solidarity by focusing on three fundamental human security issues: the lack of freedom from want, freedom from fear, and freedom from indignity. The group illustrates the absence of these three freedoms in their artworks and invites audiences, regardless of nationality and geographic boundaries, to unite in addressing these human security issues and advocating for the victims, thereby embodying cosmopolitan solidarity. This research contributes to the existing literature on the power of art in international politics and underscores the importance of recognizing non-state actors, such as artists, in the realm of global politics.

Abstract

Abstract  This study aims to examine the public diplomacy conducted by the World Health Organization (WHO) in promoting the importance of COVID-19 vaccination in Indonesia. WHO engaged in public diplomacy to address vaccine hesitancy caused by hoaxes and misinformation surrounding COVID-19 vaccines. This study raises the following research question: “How did WHO implement public diplomacy to attract the Indonesian public to COVID-19 vaccination?” To answer this question, the study employs public diplomacy theory and the concept of soft power, using a qualitative research method. Data were collected through a literature review and analyzed in three stages: data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing/verification. The findings indicate that WHO implemented public diplomacy by utilizing social media, conducting social campaigns, and collaborating with news agencies to counter hoaxes about COVID-19 vaccines and encourage vaccine uptake among the Indonesian public. Through these efforts, WHO exercised public diplomacy as a form of soft power to influence public attitudes toward vaccination. This study contributes to a better understanding of the role of WHO as a non-state actor in public diplomacy.   Keywords: Vaccine, Soft Power, Pandemic, Social Campaign, Hoaxes     Abstrak  Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji diplomasi publik yang dilakukan oleh Organisasi Kesehatan Dunia (WHO) dalam mempromosikan pentingnya vaksinasi COVID-19 di Indonesia. WHO melakukan diplomasi publik untuk mengatasi keraguan terhadap vaksin yang disebabkan oleh hoaks dan disinformasi seputar vaksin COVID-19. Penelitian ini mengajukan pertanyaan penelitian sebagai berikut: “Bagaimana WHO mengimplementasikan diplomasi publik untuk menarik masyarakat Indonesia agar bersedia melakukan vaksinasi COVID-19?” Untuk menjawab pertanyaan tersebut, penelitian ini menggunakan teori diplomasi publik dan konsep soft power (kekuatan lunak) dengan metode penelitian kualitatif. Data dikumpulkan melalui studi literatur dan dianalisis melalui tiga tahap, yaitu reduksi data, penyajian data, serta penarikan dan verifikasi kesimpulan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa WHO mengimplementasikan diplomasi publik melalui pemanfaatan media sosial, pelaksanaan kampanye sosial, serta kerja sama dengan media massa untuk melawan hoaks terkait vaksin COVID-19 dan mendorong peningkatan penerimaan vaksinasi di kalangan masyarakat Indonesia. Melalui berbagai upaya tersebut, WHO mempraktikkan diplomasi publik sebagai bentuk soft power untuk memengaruhi sikap dan persepsi publik terhadap vaksinasi. Penelitian ini berkontribusi pada pemahaman yang lebih mendalam mengenai peran WHO sebagai aktor non-negara dalam praktik diplomasi publik.   Kata kunci: Vaksin, Kekuatan Lunak, Pandemi, Kampanye Sosial, Hoaks

Abstract

This study discusses the thoughts of renowned Sufi poet Jalal Al-din Rumi behind Rumi Diplomacy, rolled out by Fadjroel Rachman, Indonesian Ambassador to Kazakhstan and Tajikistan. Rumi Diplomacy takes place in a way that the ambassador uses Rumi’s works to enhance bilateral ties with Tajikistan. Rumi Diplomacy implies that the ambassador considers Rumi’s thoughts soft power in his foreign policy. This study uses a qualitative method, with the theory of foreign-policy analysis by Harold and Margaret Sprout in place. This theory enables the author to find that Rumi’s thoughts on religious moderation, universal love, and universal faith influenced Rachman’s psychological environment to perceive such thoughts as soft power to reach Indonesia’s national interests in Tajikistan. It means that he considers the development of Rumi’s influence in Indonesia as the operational environment in making his foreign policy. To identify and understand his psychological and operational environments, the author interviewed the ambassador, read Rumi’s works, and reviewed the literature. This study, which is the first to research Rumi Diplomacy, contributes to shedding light thatin international politics, literature work should not be overlooked because it can also affect the decision-making process and help a country reach national interests without coercion.

Abstract

Indonesia and Australia are neighboring countries with fluctuate bilateral relations. In 2018, they formed Indonesia-Australia Comprehensive Strategic Partnership (IA-CSP) to enhance their partnerships in strategic sectors for the stability of regional security in the Indo-Pacific. However, the problem came up in 2021 when Australia established trilateral defense cooperation AUKUS with the United Kingdom and the United States. This cooperation facilitates Australia to have nuclear-powered submarines to strengthen its military power. This cooperation has raised the eyebrows of Indonesia as it is against IA-CSP’s pillars, particularly pillar on securing the two countries and the region’s shared interest, and pillar on contributing to Indo-Pacific stability and prosperity. Therefore, Indonesia regretted Australia’s participation in AUKUS because the former deemed the latter to have violated its commitment on IA-CSP. This research aims to analyze IA-CSP’s opportunities and challenges post-establishment of AUKUS. It used a qualitative method, with interviews and literature review in place to collect data. The authors used regional security complex theory and strategic partnership concept for analysis. This research found that AUKUS does not disrupt the implementation of IA-CSP because the cooperation instead provides opportunities that Indonesia can utilize for its national interest. However, AUKUS poses challenges that Indonesia needs to tackle.

Abstract

This Community Service Program (PKM) aims to enhance digital literacy and social media ethics among students at SMK Muhammadiyah 9 Jakarta. The program was implemented by a team of lecturers from Universitas Satya Negara Indonesia (USNI), using a participatory education approach integrated with experiential learning. The activities included educational sessions, interactive discussions, case-based simulations, and hands-on practice in creating educational digital content, encouraging students' active engagement throughout the learning process. The evaluation results showed that the program increased 40 students' digital literacy by 46% and their understanding of social media ethics by 53%. These improvements were evidenced by comparisons of the pre-test and post-test results, as well as by the students' ability to produce educational digital content as a practical application of the knowledge they had acquired. The findings indicate that the participatory education approach was effective not only in improving students' knowledge but also in developing practical skills, critical thinking, and more responsible, ethical, and informed attitudes toward the use of digital media. Therefore, the learning model implemented in this community service program has the potential to be replicated in other schools as an effective strategy for strengthening digital literacy and fostering a healthy and responsible digital culture within educational settings.
