Dr. Dian Hidayati, as conference chair, said, ” We agree that various problems in the global era cannot be solved using one perspective. Instead, we must have multi-perspectives, both local and global. The point is to act locally and think globally. It means acting in the community according to local rules, norms, and traditions but thinking, connecting and communicating with others in accordance with global standards and norms. The forum will help the participants find ideas and formulate and model the curriculum, approaches, and learning methods. Hence, we can direct our students to act locally and think globally without ignoring any of them.”
Further, it is expected that the conference generates information, important findings, and recommendations that contribute to solving various problems, challenges, and issues resulting from technological advancement. It can also help face the Covid-19 pandemic, maximizing creativity and innovation in local and global perspectives.
