Devi Tri Sukmawati

Master of Education (specialising in Early Childhood)
I have found the course very inspiring especially the focus on current trends in early childhood education. The course has led me to view early childhood education from different perspectives and has sharpened my thinking and analytical skills. I chose Monash because of its global reputation and its membership in the Group of Eight universities. I was a pre-school teacher in my home country of Indonesia and I am condent that this course will strengthen my employability when I return. The lecturers in the course are very committed and are willing to spend their time helping students in both academic and language matters. The course prepares students to be leaders in the eld of education.

Rachmad Hidayat
PhD candidate, Faculty of Arts, School of Political and Social Inquiry
PhD candidate Rachmad Hidayat is on the cusp of cultural conict, and he hopes his research will help Muslim communities - both in his home country in Indonesia and in Australia to negotiate their beliefs amid social change. His research into Muslim men and masculinity began at Monash Universitys School of Political and Social Inquiry, where an AusAID scholarship allowed him to focus his masters research on domestic violence in Indonesia. Non-government organisations (NGOs) such as the Rifka Annisa womens crisis centre in Yogyakarta work with the female victims of domestic violence, but Rachmad found the need to examine the attitudes of men in the communities and its effect on women. With the supervision of Monash academics, Rachmad studied at the Monash Clayton campus in Australia, but travelled back to Indonesia to conduct his eldwork with the Rifka Annisa Mens program in two villages near Yogyakarta, where domestic violence rates were particularly high. He spoke with leaders in the villages, gathering revealing insights into what being a man meant for Muslim men in context of family and how this translated in everyday life. Today, his PhD has moved away from domestic violence, focusing instead on how Southeast-Asian Muslim migrants in Australia renegotiate their gender roles and religious identities. But his masters work promises to be the catalyst for policy changes and community programs to help reduce the incidence of domestic violence in Indonesia. When he completes his PhD in 2014, he hopes that his work can offer an understanding of the struggles of the Muslim families who migrate from Southeast Asia. He foresees his work informing government groups and migrant communities, perhaps contributing to programs to help ease their transition into Australian society while examining multiculturalism in Australia. Rachmad says that his AusAID scholarship helped him to nd the ideal environment to further his study, and continuing his PhD in Monash was a logical step. I greatly appreciate the support that my supervisors and AusAID have provided me, and I wanted that continuity. Im comfortable studying at Monash, and Ihave the right environment to achieve my research goals. My focus will be back in Indonesia. The bigger issue Im thinking about is Muslim society itself, how religion shapes the ideas of the attitudes of the people, the believers and especially in terms of gender relationships in the family. I hope that my work can contribute to a more cohesive society and help leaders in the community reect on themselves and their own actions, empowering them to move us in the right direction.
