SDG 5: GENDER EQUALITY

“Women and girls continue to suffer discrimination and violence in every part of the world. Gender equality is a fundamental human right, and a foundation for a peaceful, prosperous and sustainable world. Providing women and girls with equal access to education is a key part of delivering gender equality, but universities also have a wider role to drive forward gender equality in their communities.”

Women Mentoring Schemes through Girls Leadership Camp

IPB established the Girls Leadership Camp (Asrama Kepemimpinan Putri/AKP), a talent pool to develop leadership skills and create future female leaders. This program is part of Leadership Booth Camp, which includes male and female participants with a relatively balanced proportion within both groups of participants. AKP is focused on supporting women to grow, learn and thrive in today’s challenges. This program is also intended to respond to several important issues: lack of leadership, lack of integrity, radicalism, and the decline in the interest of the young generation in agriculture, as well as gender imbalance in leadership. This program has been running for two years, and in 2021 various activities were done online and offline. Participants had an opportunity to hear from senior women at the University and other professionals, participate in skill-building workshops and network with professionals from across the fields. There are three major programs in AKP, namely: (i) the soft skill development program through Agri-preneur, agri-leader, and agri-technopreneur program, (ii) the coaching program through community empowerment, spiritual development, leadership training, and anti-radicalism education, and (ii) talent mapping development, public speaking training, and The 7 Habits training.
