Like a book club, but for academic journals.
Once a month on Zoom, people from all sorts of walks of life, and all over the world, sit down with one journal article or documentary about Indonesia and pull it apart together. A safe space to learn, chat, and nerd out.
- Seasons run
- 5
- Streams running
- 2
- participants each stream
- 25
What you get
- Short-to-medium journal articles, read and unpacked together
- Authors and field experts dropping into the conversation
- A community of like-minded nerds (and *ahem* potential dates)
- A shot at writing a summary or op-ed, credited on WIUI's socials
A five-month programme: one 1.5–2 hour session a month, paid up front. The fee keeps the group committed and helps keep WIUI sustainable.
“Journal Club is a great reminder there are so many brilliant Indonesians from different backgrounds you've yet to meet. And it has been a delight (and honor) to be able to exchange ideas with them.”
