The Dean of the Faculty of Philosophy at Universitas Gadjah Mada (UGM), Dr. Rr. Siti Murtiningsih, S.S., M.Hum., and the Director of Ullen Sentalu Javanese Art and Culture Museum, Daniel A. Haryono, signed a memorandum of understanding between the two institutions on Thursday (18/4). The agreement aims to collaborate on preserving and developing Wayang (shadow puppetry) and advancing the university’s Tri Dharma principles, particularly in academic and student activities.
“The Faculty of Philosophy is committed to exploring and preserving the values and local wisdom of the archipelago, including those embodied in Wayang. This is also a key concern of Ullen Sentalu Museum. Therefore, we believe that by leveraging each institution’s capabilities, we can achieve shared goals,” said the Dean of the Faculty of Philosophy.
