Jakarta, 13 March 2024 - Hibah Dikti funding is a funding program organized by the Directorate General of Higher Education (DIKTI) in Indonesia. The purpose of this program is to provide financial support to universities and higher education institutions for development, research, innovation, and improving the quality of higher education.

In order to increase the number of DIKTI Grant recipients at Dian Nusantara University (UNDIRA), the Research and Community Service Institute (LRPM) has a strategy to organize Coaching Clinic activities on March 02, 2024, for UNDIRA permanent lecturers who will submit research and community service (PkM) proposals.

The coaches in this activity are Prof. Astri Rinanti, S.Si., M.T., IPM, Full Professor from Trisakti University; Dr. Emelia Sari, S.T., M.T. who serves as Head of the Business Incubator Center of LPPM Trisakti University; and Dr. Winnie Septiani, S.T., M.Si., IPM. in her capacity as Deputy Director of Research LPPM Trisakti University.

Dr. Muhammad Hanafi, MBA, IPU as Director of LRPM UNDIRA stated that there were around 28 proposals submitted to the DIKTI Grant program in the field of research and PkM or around 35% of the number of lecturers registered in Sinta Dikti. He also expressed optimism that more could be generated from the submission of this DIKTI Grant proposal and further encouraged lecturers to take advantage of opportunities to get funding from the 2024 DIKTI Grant.

The event was officially opened by Mr. Ir Margono Sugeng, M.Sc. as Vice Rector I in charge of Academic Affairs who expressed his hope that all participants who attended this Coaching Clinic event were expected to produce proposals that were eligible to be submitted to BIMA before March 26, 2024, and he also asked all lecturers present to not only make the best use of this opportunity, but also make it a learning platform related to the preparation of research proposals and PKM so as to increase the opportunity to get DIKTI Grant funds in 2024.

On this occasion, Prof. Astri Rinanti, S.Si., M.T., IPM expressed her highest appreciation, stating that UNDIRA had shown commendable readiness even though the guidebook had not yet been released. She stated that this was clear evidence of the serious commitment of UNDIRA's leadership to equip its teaching staff to be successful in applying for DIKTI Grants in 2024. Hopefully, after this event, the lecturers will have clarity regarding the objectives, methodology, budgeting, and report completion for the 2024 DIKTI Grant.

The DIKTI Grant Program plays an important role in the development of higher education in Indonesia by facilitating research activities and supporting educational improvement. The program enables higher education institutions to develop better educational programs while increasing accessibility for outstanding students who are financially disadvantaged. In addition, Hibah Dikti inspires innovation, creativity, and global competitiveness by encouraging researchers and students to conduct relevant problem-solving research, which in turn, Hibah Dikti plays an important role in empowering human resources in Indonesia, facilitating the creation of a skilled and globally competitive next generation.
