Recognizing the silent crisis of student hunger, the university has strategically transformed its food courts from mere commercial spaces into vital hubs of food security and social equity, directly addressing the principles of SDG 2.

The University of Mataram’s 100% graduation pledge for its most economically disadvantaged students is a bold commitment to educational equity as the bedrock for defeating poverty (SDG 1). This target acknowledges that true equity requires transforming the entire university ecosystem into a scaffold of support. The narrative here is one of proactive, wraparound care.

Thus, the “Zero Dropout” initiative is built on a foundation of unconditional financial security, ensuring no student has to choose between their education and their survival. But the support extends deeper. […]

It involves comprehensive financial aid that covers not just tuition but also accommodation, food, and books, eliminating the economic pressure to drop out. […]
