Programs & Activities
AWaRe1
Antibiotic resistance is one of the greatest health challenges of our time. Most antibiotics are prescribed in primary healthcare settings, yet many are used inappropriately—especially broad-spectrum antibiotics in low- and middle-income countries. AWaRe1 is a global initiative led by St George’s University of London to promote responsible antibiotic use, guided by the WHO AWaRe framework (Access, Watch, Reserve). The program combines research, education, and collaboration to protect the future of antibiotics and strengthen community health.
CRVS-UNHCR
Civil Registration and Vital Statistics (CRVS) is the official system that records life events such as births, deaths, marriages, and divorces. For refugees in Indonesia, CRVS is more than paperwork—it is the gateway to legal recognition, access to services, and protection of fundamental rights.
INNOVATE
Vaccine safety is a cornerstone of public health. Yet in many low- and middle-income countries, monitoring systems rely on passive reporting—meaning serious events like hospitalizations or deaths after vaccination may be misunderstood as vaccine-related, even when they are coincidental. This can erode public trust.
INNOVATE is a global initiative designed to strengthen vaccine safety monitoring. By collecting background data on deaths and hospitalizations, and comparing them with events after vaccination, INNOVATE provides clear evidence to distinguish coincidence from true vaccine-related risks.
AI-KPPKS
Australia-Indonesia Kolaborasi Pendidikan Pasien Kanker Serviks (AI-KPPKS)
Cervical cancer remains one of the leading causes of cancer-related deaths among women in Indonesia. Many patients face delays in diagnosis and treatment because their information needs are not met. AI-KPPKS is a joint initiative between Universitas Gadjah Mada and the University of Melbourne (Nossal Institute), supported by the Australia–Indonesia Institute, to co-create patient education materials with doctors, patients, and survivors. The program combines research, education, and collaboration to improve health literacy, strengthen patient engagement, and support Indonesia’s National Cervical Cancer Elimination Plan 2023–2030.
