UI GreenCityMetric Engages with LLDIKTI Regions to Advance Sustainability in Private Universities

September 2025, UI GreenCityMetric (UIGCM) held a series of Info Sessions in collaboration with several regional LLDIKTI offices to promote sustainable campus development across Indonesian private universities. These sessions aimed to introduce the UIGCM framework and foster meaningful partnerships to support green transformation in higher education.

The sessions were held with LLDIKTI Region IX and XVI on September 4, followed by Region II and III on September 11, and concluded with Region VI on September 26. Each gathering provided a platform for discussion on the role of universities in addressing environmental challenges and implementing sustainability strategies based on the UIGCM indicators.

For private universities, UIGCM offers more than a ranking—it serves as a practical tool for assessing campus sustainability performance, setting measurable goals, and gaining recognition both nationally and globally. It also helps align university development with global commitments such as the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

Collaboration with LLDIKTI plays a vital role in scaling this impact. As the main facilitators of higher education development across regions, LLDIKTI offices are key partners in encouraging private universities to take part in sustainability initiatives and to build capacity in campus greening efforts.

We would like to extend our deepest appreciation to the LLDIKTI leaders who participated and shared their perspectives: Dr. Andi Lukman, M.Si. (Region IX), Munawir Sadzali Razak, S.IP., M.A. (Region XVI), Prof. Dr. Iskhaq Iskandar (Region II), Dr. Henri Tambunan (Region III), and Prof. Dr. Ir. Aisyah Endah Palupi, M.Pd. (Region VI). Their presence and encouragement reflect strong institutional support for advancing sustainability in higher education.

UI GreenCityMetric looks forward to continued collaboration with LLDIKTI and private universities nationwide to cultivate campuses that are not only academically excellent, but also environmentally responsible and future-ready.
