Abstract

Abstract: This study aims to describe the role of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) in managing refugees in Ethiopia from 2020 to 2022. The armed conflict between the Tigray People’s Liberation Front (TPLF) and the Ethiopian government on November 4, 2020, caused a large wave of refugees. UNHCR, as an international organization, played a key role in providing humanitarian aid and protection to the refugees. This research uses a descriptive study with a qualitative approach supported by the Theory of International Organization Roles. Data was collected through primary interviews and secondary sources such as documents, books, journals, and previous research. The findings reveal that UNHCR carried out three key roles as an international organization: 1) Instrumental Role: UNHCR supported Ethiopia’s national interests by providing shelter, food, healthcare, education, and WASH (Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene) services. 2) Facilitative Role: UNHCR served as a platform, such as the Refugee Coordination Group (RCG), to discuss the Comprehensive Refugee Response Framework (CRRF) and support development programs. 3) Actor Role: UNHCR took responsibility for creating policies and ensuring protection for refugees and asylum seekers. It actively participated in programs for protection, community resilience, aid distribution, capacity building, and refugee solutions. Although UNHCR has provided significant aid and development plans, there is a need for more trained personnel, such as teachers and healthcare workers. Additionally, increased funding is required to improve infrastructure and expand partnerships. Keywords: International Organization, UNHCR, Refugees, Ethiopia, Humanitarian Aid

Abstract

This article analyzes the strategies of the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) in supporting international collaboration in higher education, particularly in Indonesia. The issue examined is the role of DAAD as an instrument of public diplomacy and knowledge within the framework of German foreign policy. This research employs a qualitative descriptive method through a literature review of official DAAD sources and academic literature. The DAAD not only reinforces Germany's image as a knowledge-based nation but also builds strategic bilateral relationships through academic exchange programs. Thus, it can be concluded that the knowledge diplomacy carried out through the DAAD is an effective approach in expanding Germany's influence collaboratively on the global stage. Keywords: International Relations, DAAD, Soft Power, Knowledge Diplomacy

Abstract

Abortion has long been a controversial issue in Argentina. In the Criminal Law article 86 of 1921, the government only allows abortions to be performed in cases where the pregnancy is considered to endanger the life of the mother or when the pregnancy is a result of rape on a woman with mental disabilities. Restrictions on access to abortion result in high rates of unsafe and illegal abortions in Argentina, which increases the risk of maternal death and various other health and economic risks. The Ni Una Menos movement, which was born in 2015, became a turning point for the legalization of abortion in Argentina. Ni Una Menos successfully changed the orientation and tactics of the women's movement in Argentina, which previously focused on middle-class academia groups and political lobbying, into a movement of demonstrations and general strikes in the streets of Argentina. This movement went on to play a significant role in the enactment of rules regarding the legalization of abortion without conditions up to 14 weeks of pregnancy in 2020.

Abstract

Penelitian ini bertujuan mendeskripsikan peran penting Paus Fransiskus dalam mempromosikan perdamaian, khususnya terkait konflik di Suriah pada awal masa kepemimpinannya sebagai kepala Gereja Katolik dan pemimpin Negara Takhta Suci Vatikan. Sejak awal masa jabatannya, Paus Fransiskus secara aktif menciptakan dialog dan mediasi, mengutuk segala bentuk kekerasan, serta mendorong solusi damai melalui negosiasi. Dalam konteks konflik Suriah, ia menyerukan kepada komunitas internasional untuk menghindari eskalasi kekerasan dan berfokus pada solusi kemanusiaan yang mengutamakan rekonsiliasi dan perlindungan warga sipil. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode deskriptif dengan pendekatan kualitatif melalui studi pustaka, yang mengumpulkan data dari berbagai literatur terkait. Hasil penelitian memaparkan berbagai inisiatif Paus Fransiskus, seperti doa bersama, pernyataan publik, serta komunikasi diplomatik dengan pemimpin dunia, untuk menekankan pentingnya penghentian konflik bersenjata. Pengaruhnya tidak hanya bersifat keagamaan tetapi juga diplomatik, di mana Vatikan memainkan peran signifikan dalam percakapan politik internasional. Dengan komitmennya terhadap perdamaian, Paus Fransiskus menjadi figur sentral dalam menyuarakan solusi damai dan mengedepankan nilai-nilai kemanusiaan dalam konflik Suriah.

Abstract

Penelitian ini menganalisis faktor pendorong Indonesia menjadi mitra BRICS dari perspektif Ekonomi Politik Internasional (EPI) dan kepentingan nasional. Dengan metode kualitatif eksplanatoris-analitis, penelitian ini menemukan bahwa keputusan Indonesia dipengaruhi oleh faktor ekonomi, geopolitik, dan diplomatik. Secara ekonomi, BRICS menawarkan diversifikasi mitra dagang, akses pendanaan alternatif melalui NDB, serta kerja sama infrastruktur dan teknologi. Secara politik, kemitraan ini memperkuat posisi Indonesia dalam tatanan global multipolar dan mengurangi ketergantungan pada Barat. Prinsip politik luar negeri yang bebas dan aktif juga mendukung hubungan dengan berbagai kekuatan ekonomi. Oleh karena itu, kemitraan dengan BRICS dianggap strategis untuk meningkatkan daya saing dan peran ekonomi Indonesia di dunia.

Abstract

Islam merupakan salah satu agama terbesar di Inggris dengan populasi terbanyak setelah agama Kristen. Hal ini dikarenakan banyaknya imigran dari Asia dan Afrika. Meskipun Inggris merupakan negara multicultural, kasus diskriminasi dan islamofobia terus meningkat terutama pasca 9/11 dan serangan teroris di London. Media massa berperan sangat besar dalam membentuk opini terhadap imigran dan agama Islam dikarenakan aksi-aksi terorisme dikaitkan dengan Islam. Selain itu juga dikarenakan banyaknya pengangguran memperburuk kondisi sosial di negara Inggris. Dengan meningkatnya perkembangan teknologi dan media sosial, persebaran misinformasi berita semakin cepat dan luas yang memperburuk sentiment terhadap muslim. Platform telegram menjadi wadah bagi kelompok ekstrimis kanan untuk menyebarkan propaganda dan mobilisasi aksi diskriminatif. Hal ini terlihat dalam kerusuhan Inggris tahun 2024 setelah penusukan di Southport. Berita-berita menyebar secara luas melalui media sosial yang memicu protes dan kekerasan terhadap komunitas Islam dan Imigran.

Abstract

India, the world's most populous country, possesses the second-largest military and the fourth-largest defense budget globally. Historically, India has been one of the largest arms importers. However, over the past two decades, the country has made significant efforts to reduce its dependence on imports and achieve self-reliance in defense manufacturing. To accomplish this goal, India has introduced major policy reforms, including opening up the defense sector to private companies and launching extensive indigenization initiatives. These measures aim to strengthen domestic defense production and position India as a key player in the global defense industry. This paper analyzes the historical trajectory of India's defense imports, examining the factors that contributed to its reliance on foreign weaponry. It also explores India's strategic efforts to reduce imports by promoting indigenous manufacturing and fostering technological advancements. Furthermore, the paper highlights India's emergence as a key defense exporter on the global stage, assessing its growing influence in international arms trade.

Abstract

Marine debris is one of the most pressing environmental challenges in the modern era, with the Philippines as one of the largest contributors. This study explores the challenges in implementing the Bangkok Declaration to address marine debris in the Philippines 2019-2025. This study uses the theory of pluralism, namely the plurality of actors in efforts to prevent and reduce marine debris in the Philippines. Through descriptive qualitative research using literature study data collection techniques, the results of this study indicate that around 80% of marine debris comes from land activities, with plastic as the dominant component. The seriousness of the Philippines in implementing the Bangkok Declaration on Marine Debris can be seen from the involvement of various actors. The actors who play a role in efforts to prevent and reduce marine debris in the Philippines include the government, private sector, NGOs, and also local communities. However, there are still several challenges in implementing the Bangkok Declaration on Marine Debris in the Philippines, including the lack of waste management infrastructure, low public awareness, weak law enforcement and the problem of plastic waste imports. Despite these challenges, the Philippines' opportunity to at least approach the target of reducing marine debris remains open. This can be achieved by increasing investment in waste processing infrastructure, effective education campaigns, strengthening regulations and law enforcement, and increasing international cooperation to address waste problems, all of which must be implemented in a comprehensive, measurable and responsible manner by all actors involved.

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to assess how well the Surabaya Sightseeing City Tour Bus (SSCT) program works to make Surabaya a more alluring tourist destination for international visitors. This research looks at how SSCT works as a tool for branding Surabaya city to foreign tourists. This research uses descriptive qualitative method which is one of the effective approaches to describe a practice. Direct observation during the internship, interviews with staff at the tourist information center, and analysis of 2024 visitor visit data were used to collect data. The findings show that although the Surabaya Sightseeing City Tour (SSCT) program successfully integrates local culture in the city branding strategy through strong historical narratives and cultural experiences, limitations in global promotion, digital access, and multilingual support are the main challenges in effectively reaching foreign tourists. With this, the author identifies opportunities in the SSCT program by expanding promotional channels, improving accessibility for international payments, and strengthening internationally packaged local cultural narratives are some of the recommendations.

Abstract

Terusan Suez di Mesir dan Terusan Panama di Panama merupakan dua chokepoint maritim paling strategis di dunia, menghubungkan jalur perdagangan lintas benua dan menopang stabilitas ekonomi global. Penelitian ini menganalisis strategi keamanan kedua kanal dengan menggunakan kerangka Teori Keamanan Non-Tradisional (NTS) dan Teori Kompleks Interdependensi. NTS digunakan untuk mengidentifikasi ancaman multidimensi seperti perubahan iklim, kejahatan lintas negara, dan instabilitas geopolitik, sedangkan Kompleks Interdependensi digunakan untuk menjelaskan bagaimana gangguan di satu kanal dapat menimbulkan efek domino dalam sistem perdagangan global yang saling bergantung. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah analisis kualitatif berbasis studi literatur, data sekunder, dan laporan institusi resmi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa Mesir menerapkan pendekatan militeristik–sentralistik dengan fokus pada pengamanan fisik dan kapasitas kanal, sedangkan Panama mengadopsi pendekatan sipil–institusional dengan penekanan pada adaptasi lingkungan dan digitalisasi navigasi. Keduanya memiliki keunggulan dan kelemahan yang berbeda: Suez unggul dalam respons terhadap ancaman geopolitik, tetapi kurang adaptif terhadap risiko iklim; Panama unggul dalam mitigasi iklim dan efisiensi operasional, namun lebih rentan terhadap tekanan politik global. Penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa keamanan kedua kanal merupakan kepentingan kolektif internasional dan memerlukan kolaborasi lintas negara, integrasi mitigasi iklim, serta diversifikasi rute perdagangan untuk menjaga stabilitas maritim global.
