BINUS University International Strives to Enhance Global Career Opportunities and Cultural Understanding through “BINUS Meets Embassies: Connecting the Dots”

Jakarta, 22 May 2023 – The first Ambassador Forum as part of “BINUS Meets Embassies: Connecting the Dots” by BINUS University International was a moment not to be missed.  Held at BINUS @Senayan – Joseph Wibowo Campus (JWC) Campus, we hosted not one, or two, but four prominent ambassadors from Algeria, Hungary, Mozambique, and the Philippines!

Internationalization is central to BINUS University’s commitment to enhancing global career opportunities and increasing cultural understanding.

Students, parents, to school counselors participated in a lively engagement on the theme “Mobility & Employability between Asia, Europe & Africa – Opportunities & Challenges” which aims to support prospective graduates to compete in the global industry. It covered various important topics such as an overview of participating countries, scholarship cooperation opportunities, and career prospects in those countries presented by Ambassadors, Lahcene Kaid Slimane for Algeria, Lilla Karsay for Hungary, Belmiro Jose Malate for Mozambique, and Gina A. Jamoralin for the Philippines.

During the session, we learned from Ambassador Lahcene Kaid Slimane how Algeria ensures that accessible education promotes cultural understanding and the country’s economic development. Ambassador Lilla Karsay from Hungary echoed this as promoting innovation to establish a closer bilateral relationship between Hungary and Indonesia which it will provide promising career opportunities for graduates.

“We hope that participants can enhance their chances of a global career through the insights provided,” said Diah Wihardini, Ph.D., Director of BINUS Global.

Additionally, Gina A. Jamoralin from the Philippines conveyed, “The Philippines offers extensive job opportunities in the information technology and business services sectors. Through collaboration with BINUS University, students can expand their networks and prepare themselves for success in the global job market.”

On the second day of the “BINUS Meets Embassies: Connecting the Dots” event, visitors also had the opportunity to gain a closer understanding of Asian, African, and European cultures through an exhibition to enhance cultural understanding.

That’s all? Of course not! Various workshops were also held where our friends could enjoy the superb facilities at BINUS @Senayan – JWC Campus!
