Have you ever wondered what the world would look like if our society placed more value on collective wellbeing rather than personal wealth? Or if we measured progress not by GDP growth but by happiness? How might we redesign our education system to value creativity as much as academic performance? Is there an alternative social and economic system that would produce an entirely different outcome than the path we are on at the moment? If these are the sort of questions that keep you up at night, or if you ever wished you were more personally involved in addressing these challenges, you may belong with us at UID!
United in Diversity (UID) is a nonprofit foundation based in Jakarta and founded in 2003 by Universitas Indonesia, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and Gajah Tunggal Group-Sinar Harapan.
