The Global UGRAD Program is for young leaders committed to serving their home communities.
Live next to the second most important city in Indonesia, people must be expecting a good environment with low poverty. In fact, the splendor of Surabaya on the contrary creates even more regional inequality especially in my hometown, Gresik. That condition push me to give more contribution to lighten up my community. Hence, I regularly involved in voluntary community services, which were sharing foods or other basic needs for people in need by conducting annual programs every Islamic holiday events. It is worth mentioning that involved in this kind of program made me feel good as it shaped me to be a grateful person.
When I go to the university, I start to look for other experience of voluntary by joining International Women's Day Surabaya to educate women about certain issues such as the important of digital privacy, women's mental health in pandemi, and education about the bill of elimination of sexual violance. Through this programs, I gain so much knowledge that I can share to my community from a proper interviewees. Those kind of experiences in community service grows my willingness develop my home community through my participation in Global UGRAD. Therefore, conducting an advanced support and education in certain issues to people in need is my contribution plan to my community.
Not just active in community services program, I often involved in many activities that help me to improve my leadership ability. One of the most memorable experience was when I lead a team to held a traditional colosal show to introduce Gresik's culture story entitled 'Sunan Giri'. It was not easy to organize more than five extracuricular and many other elements in one show but I and my team managed it well due to strong leadership and excellent team work from my team. Since I accepted in university, I also often enganged with various event such as student orientation committee, and campus exhibition committee. Through my involvement on those event, I learn so much thing about leadership, team work, networking, and problem solving
Beyond that, I always want to know how it feels like to be living in another society with different cultures such as USA. To pursue my curiosity about another society with different cultures, I usually watch many western series and movies to see the general view of its society. For me watching movies or series are tools to reach broaden knowledge and entertainment at the same time. If I can learn about another society and culture by watching movies and series, I will be happy to show how's Indonesian society and culture to American or other international friends by sharing my favorite Indonesian movies with them. Beside my hobby in watching movies and series, I also like to cook. I can cook several traditional foods, and I really want to share the taste of traditional foods to them as my contribution to this program.
