Non-Discriminatory New Student Orientation at FIB Unpad: Opera Budaya 2025

The Faculty of Cultural Studies at Universitas Padjadjaran (FIB Unpad) is committed to fostering an inclusive and welcoming environment for all incoming students. In line with this commitment, the 2025 new student orientation, named Opera Budaya, was held on August 13–14, providing a non-discriminatory and accessible program that embraces diversity, equality, and inclusivity.

Opera Budaya is carefully designed to ensure that all participants, including students with disabilities, can fully engage in the orientation activities. The program includes interactive workshops, cultural performances, campus tours, and group activities that promote collaboration, respect, and awareness of diversity. Special attention is given to accessibility, safety, and creating an environment where every student feels valued and supported.

Through these efforts, Opera Budaya not only introduces students to academic life at FIB Unpad but also instills the values of empathy, equity, and social responsibility. The orientation serves as a foundation for a campus culture that respects individual differences and actively discourages discrimination of any kind. By implementing such inclusive practices, FIB Unpad demonstrates a strong commitment to building a supportive community where all students can thrive from the very beginning of their university journey.
