HPEQ Student Indonesian Health Professional Student Organizations Alliance for Education
Your Guide to
ONCE UPON A TIME
HPEQ Student is a network of Indonesian health professional
student organizations focusing on issues related to health
professional education quality. Initiated by 8 student
organizations from 7 health professions, the network was
established at the “Indonesian Health Professional Students
Summit” in Jakarta, November 19th 2010.
The summit itself was held to answer the need for a proper
opinion channeling and aimed to create a forum for Indonesian
health professional students to convey their aspiration
regarding their education system. The summit was then ended
with the signing of the Indonesian Health Professional
Students’ Declaration on Students’ Role in Health Professional
Education, addressing two main points: student participation in
education governance and interprofessional education.
TRANSFORMING MIND
The declaration resulted from the summit was not merely words read
out loud to impress those who hear them. It was a manifesto of the spirit
of togetherness among health professional students and a big step of
hope to make changes in students’ role in education governance.
For the students, the declaration changed their way of seeing
themselves: they are no longer an object, but instead, the agent of
change of their own education. It has also transformed the way we see
health professionals: we are one big team!
And thus, the declaration has attracted many experts in Indonesian
health professional education, including the Directorate General of
Higher Education, the Ministry of Education and Culture. Through the
Health Professional Education Quality (HPEQ) Project, in 2011 the
government started to support programs and activities of the student
network, which was later known as HPEQ Student.

6OBJECTIVES
THE FIRST BUDS OF SPRING
Year 2011 was the critical phase for HPEQ Student. Like a seed
struggling to bud, the students faced dry soils and hard rains. But with
the support from the student organizations and HPEQ Project, HPEQ
Student was finally able to reach a success by conducting two national-
scale studies which were very crucial for their advocacy. The first study,
which was on students’ participation in the improvement of health
professional education, was conducted online, introducing the power of
technology to channel students’ aspiration. The second, which was on
interprofessional education, managed to provide the first national
evidence on students’ and teachers’ perception and readiness for
interprofessional education. The two studies were then presented on
the 2nd HPEQ International Conference and gained interests from many.
At the conference, HPEQ Student also launched the book “What Health
Professional Students Ought to Know" written in an easily
understandable language to talk to students about the quality of their
education. The book described the shortcomings of Indonesian health
professional education system, explained what the students could do
for improvements, and encouraged the readers to participate. The book
also emphasized the importance of student advocacy at the local level
and the need for implementing interprofessional education.
In one session of the conference, HPEQ Student held a small working
group discussion to capture the aspirations of 200 Indonesian health
professional students to find out what problems existed in the education
system of the seven professions. The result was a list of problems and
recommendations to be presented to the stakeholders during an
advocacy process later on.
GROWING STRONG
In 2012, the HPEQ Student has grown bigger. With more students
being aware of its existence, the network had more manpower to carry
out new programs. HPEQ Student then set out five areas of work,
which include Advocacy, Research, Media and Campaign, Training, and
Monitoring and Evaluation.

Stakeholder mapping
To set up strategies for advocacy, HPEQ Student facilitated student
organizations to assess potential stakeholders and map them

Launching of Guideline on Student Advocacy
Guideline on Student Advocacy was created to help student
organizations advocating in a proper and powerful way. The guideline
also showed how student organizations could convey their messages
with the facilitation of HPEQ Student. It also explained the process one
should go through when trying to advocate a message to stakeholders.
Meeting with associations of health professional institutions
The meeting with the associations of health professional institutions will
be held at the end of the year, to introduce HPEQ Student programs
and students’ aspirations for the improvement of Indonesian health
professional education.

Research publication
This year, HPEQ Student started to write scientific articles to publish
the studies conducted previously. The articles on “Students’
Participation in Health Professional Education Governance in
Indonesia” and “Indonesian Health Professional Students’ Perception
and Readiness toward Interprofessional Education” will also be
presented in national and international conferences to advocate
students’ needs and gain support from stakeholders.
Launching of Online Journal of Indonesian Health Professional
Students
To accommodate the need of a scientific journal to publish the work of

in HPEQ Student, with the support of the Ministry of Education and
Culture, will launch an online journal labeled BIMKES in October 2012.
