The targets to be achieved through the strategy are (1) increasing the quality of higher education graduates, (2) increasing the quality of higher education lecturers, and (3) increasing the quality of curriculum and learning as measured through 8 (eight) Key Performance Indicators (IKU) which are set on Decree of the Minister of Education, Culture, Research and Technology (Number 210/M/2023) . Moreover, MBKM program also accelerates the transformation of universities to be the leader in a particular sector, which provide benefit on facing global issues, including climate change, which significantly impacts human survival. For this reason, the Directorate General of Higher Education, Research and Technology (Diktiristek) seeks to encourage, facilitate and accelerate higher education institutions in implementing the Independent Campus policy and achieving the 8 (eight) Main Performance Indicators. In 2024, the Directorate General of Higher Education, Research and Technology will organize Inter University Center for Excellence (IUCfE), driving universities to be center universities on such priority sectors against climate change issues. Funding for this program will be allocated to the public universities in Indonesia in the top 500 universities in the world. Even though it is an allocation, this program must be supported by proposals that perform good quality and feasibility. We also thank and appreciate the team who worked hard and dedicatedly in compiling and formulating this IUCfE proposal guideline. We hope this guideline will be helpful to universities in preparing proposals and fostering the spirit of higher education to play a role and make a real contribution to overcoming the global crisis on climate change for the welfare and advancement of the Indonesian nation.
