On the other hand, Indonesia as a country that currently continues to support Palestinian independence can also be a sensitive issue for relations between the two countries. The aim of this service activity is to provide education about Indonesia-United States relations and to dispel sensitive issues occurring between the United States and Middle Eastern countries which are considered to be an obstacle to build good relations between Indonesia and the United States. This community service aims to increase people to people contact and provide education regarding bilateral relations between Indonesia and the United States. This activity will be carried out in May 2024 using three methods, preparation and delivery of educational material, question and answer session, and reporting.
