This program is certainly very useful for us to contribute and participate in the global program of inclusive education. A big agenda for the world and of course for Indonesia. Hopefully, we can carry out this trust as well as possible. Hopefully, the lecturers and students involved will gain valuable experience for their future careers. This program is also to realize the internationalization of FKIP UAD and Muhammadiyah.”

“The implementation of international cooperation activities between UAD with the University of Gloucestershire is one of the most active cooperation at UAD since 2017 with three Erasmus+ projects and several other collaborative activities. The GGP grant from the British Council is the fourth international grant in collaboration with UoG.
