The 2024 Grand Launching KM FKH UGM activity has its own correlation with the Sustainable Development Goals. One of them is to support the goals of Industry, innovation, and infrastructure. Through this activity, it helps veterinary students develop their skills and capacities in various fields, such as communication, leadership, and teamwork. This can prepare them to become professional and competitive veterinarians in the future. This skill and capacity can be realized in dynamics together through a student activity unit and student organization. These activities indirectly support the goals of the 11th SDGs, Sustainable cities and communities, as the impact of these activities provides the output of student character formation to become agents of change in building sustainable human cities and settlements. Students can engage in various activities in the student activity unit they choose so that contribution to the activity program in the student activity unit helps establish a character as an agent of changes later on. It is also hoped that it can be a place for students to get to know each other, exchange ideas, and develop themselves together. This activity is also expected to increase the sense of solidarity and concern between students.
These activities can promote peace and inclusiveness by bringing students from various backgrounds together to celebrate the establishment of new student organizations and activities units that indirectly contribute to SDGS point 16’s goal of strong Peace, justice, and institution. Last but not least, this activity aims to build cooperative relationships and partnerships between students, student organizations, student activity units and related parties so that the goals that have been set from the beginning are achieved. By establishing partnerships and cooperation, the College of Veterinary Students’ Families can contribute to the achievement of the 17th SDGs: Partnership for the goals.
Thus, the implementation of the 2024 FKH UGM Grand Launching activity is important because there are many good oups that students and faculty can get through synergy created after the FKH UGM student family integrity pact was officially signed.
