On Tuesday, June 18, 2024, the Bachelor’s Program in Legal Studies at FH Usakti once again organized its Summer Course program. This year’s Summer Course was conducted virtually for the lecture materials, followed by a cultural visit to D.I. Yogyakarta.

The opening was conducted virtually by the Dean of FH Usakti, Dr. Dra Siti Nurbaiti, SH, MHum. Prior to that, the Chief Organizer, who is also the Head of the Bachelor’s Program in Legal Studies at FH Usakti, Maya Indrasti Notoprayitno, SH, MSi, PhD, presented a report. The Chief Organizer stated that culture and law have a strong and important relationship in the era of globalization to create an inclusive legal framework that respects cultural differences to promote global cooperation, peace, and development. Recognizing the importance of culture and law, the Bachelor’s Program in Legal Studies chose to highlight this issue as the theme for the 2024 Summer Course with the hope that cultural issues within the legal framework will become an essential part of global inclusivity. The topics covered include the relationship between culture and business law, humanitarian law and cultural heritage, cultural adaptation of refugees, legal culture and fundamental rights, and cultural diplomacy.

According to the Chief Organizer, the first Summer Course was held in 2015 in collaboration with Tilburg University, the Netherlands. The second Summer Course was held in 2023 in collaboration with Youngsan University, South Korea. This year marks the third Summer Course, and the Bachelor’s Program in Legal Studies proudly organizes it independently without collaboration.

Before concluding, the Chief Organizer explained that the 2024 Summer Course program has seen a significant increase in participation, with an 86.3% increase from the previous year. This year, there are 41 participants from Malaysia, the Philippines, Myanmar, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Mozambique, and Indonesia. The instructors are from various countries, including Thailand, South Korea, and Indonesia.

With this Summer Course, it is hoped that the name of the Faculty of Law Usakti will become increasingly recognized in the world of education, as stated by the Dean of FH Usakti during the opening.
