Mediaberitakini.com | A delegation from the Diponegoro University (Undip) Excellence Scholarship Community has successfully brought Indonesia’s reputation to the global stage by winning a gold medal at the 2025 International Science Project Competition (ISPC). Organized by the Indonesian Young Scientists Association (IYSA) in collaboration with Dian Nuswantoro University in Semarang, the prestigious competition attracted hundreds of participants from various countries, including the United States, Vietnam, South Korea, Thailand, and Hong Kong.
The team, named Gemati (Integrated Independent Livestock, Farming, and Nutrition Movement), consists of six Undip students: Sultan Naufal Haruni, Hafids Haryonno, Tri Susmita Sari, Munifa Majdiyyah, Khilwa Annida, and Annisa Aulia Fitri. They won the Gold Medal in the Innovative Science category with their innovation titled “A Village-Based Solution to Food and Nutrition Gaps.”
This work offers a village-based solution to harness the local potential of agriculture and livestock to support the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), specifically goals 2 (Zero Hunger) and 12 (Responsible Consumption and Production).
The Gemati Team Leader, Sultan Naufal Haruni, stated that this achievement was the result of a long struggle, from conceptualizing the idea, writing the paper, to preparing the presentation. “This gold medal is the result of the team’s tenacity and hard work. Hopefully, it will motivate other young people to continue making real contributions to society,” he said on Friday (August 29, 2025).
ISPC 2025 will be held as a hybrid competition from July 2025, with online presentations on August 26–27 and the announcement of the winners on Thursday (August 28, 2025). This achievement underscores the active role of Indonesia’s youth in presenting innovative solutions to global challenges, while strengthening Indonesia’s position on the international scientific map.
