Belmawa Kemdikti-Saintek hold again the LIDM in 2026. Come and join us!

The Student Digital Innovation Competition (LIDM) is part of the national talent development program, encouraging students to enhance their creativity and digital literacy, while also producing innovative work in the fields of education and digital technology-based learning. This competition aligns with the development policy direction of the Asta Cita Pembangunan Indonesia (Indonesia's Development Goals), specifically strengthening human resources, science, technology, and education. It also aligns with the Impactful Campus policy, which prioritizes the concrete role of higher education institutions in addressing societal challenges and needs.

In 2026, the Directorate of Learning and Student Affairs (Dit. Belmawa), Directorate General of Higher Education (Ditjen Dikti), Ministry of Higher Education, Science, and Technology (Kemendiktisintek) of the Republic of Indonesia, will once again hold LIDM with the theme "Digital Literacy Fostered, Indonesian Talents with Real Impact." This theme emphasizes that strengthening digital literacy is not merely about technical skills, but rather the process of fostering critical, creative, and responsible competencies as the primary foundation for students in facing technological disruption.
