Organizer: NYSEAN, Southeast Asia Coalition for Academic Freedom (SEACAF), and Justice in Southeast Asia Lab (JSEALab) at the University of Wisconsin-Madison

Type/Location: Virtual

Description:

Join NYSEAN, the Southeast Asia Coalition for Academic Freedom, and the Justice in Southeast Asia Lab at UW-Madison for a timely webinar exploring how Indonesia’s political crisis reverberates beyond street protests to challenge the foundations of academic freedom and institutional autonomy.

The conversation will situate Indonesia’s struggles within a broader regional context, examining what shrinking democratic space means under rising authoritarianism across Southeast Asia.
