You are invited to join the Lunch Talk #47 at the Faculty of Education, UIII

Budi Waluyo, PhD (Scholar in Residence (SIR) at the Faculty of Education UIII and Lecturer at Politeknik Keuangan Negara STAN) will share about: “Financing Education in Indonesia: History, Politics, and The Making of Controversy”.

This talk examines how education in Indonesia has been financed. It highlights how colonial legacies, political reforms, and institutional designs continue to influence today’s funding debates. It teases the audience to explore the tensions between state control, institutional autonomy, and public accountability, by highlighting how these forces generate controversies over tuition fees and, more recently, free school meals. The session invites participants to reflect on what lessons these patterns offer for UIII in developing a sustainable and equitable financing model.
