Budcast launched its second episode with amazing guests: Maryam from Afghanistan, who is under the Kemitraan Negara Berkembang (KNB) scholarship, and Khansa, Maryam’s buddy from ITS Global Engagement volunteers. Another special guest is Andres from Colombia, who is also under the same scholarship. This episode adopted the topic of gender equality during the pandemic, which is linked to UN Sustainable Development Goal 5. The main goal of this episode was to provide a medium for KNB students and buddies to express their concerns on the existing gender inequality issues and to share insightful methods on how students can contribute to achieve SDG 5, Gender Equality. On top of that, this episode featured two perspectives both from women and men about their outlook on the urgency of gender equality and ended with a Guess-the-Picture Game where our guests tried to guess famous Indonesian foods through cut-out pictures!
Budcast was delighted to have Maryam, Andres, and Khansa, who shared their knowledge by passionately explaining gender equality in their country and gave methods for students to actualize SDG 5. The most exciting moment would be when Maryam and Andres competed in the Guess-the-Picture game on Indonesian food and talked about how much they enjoyed eating Bakso, Soto, and Nasi Goreng.
The second episode of Budcast titled “Equality, How Are You? ft. SDG 5” can be watched on ITS Global Engagement social media, specifically on ITS GE Youtube channel through this link and on Instagram TV through this link.
With this episode of Budcast, it is hoped that Sustainable Development Goal 5, Gender Equality, will be achieved in all regions of the world. May this podcast also raises awareness on the urgency of Gender Equality, which is a glaring problem.
