The Institute for the Study and Practice of Islam (LPPI) at ‘Aisyiyah University (UNISA) Yogyakarta has successfully opened the Baitul Arqam Purna (BAP) 2025 activities which will take place from February 3 to 15, 2025. BAP aims to provide knowledge, experience, and organizational skills, as well as preparing students to enter the world of work and society.

This activity was attended by final year students from various faculties at UNISA Yogyakarta. Baitul Arqam Purna is the main cadre training in the ‘Aisyiyah organization which must be attended by all students at ‘Aisyiyah Higher Education Institutions throughout Indonesia.

This year’s BAP 2025 has the theme ‘Increasing Cadres Capacity, Bringing Benefits to All’. This theme was chosen as UNISA Yogyakarta’s commitment to producing cadres who are not only competent in the academic field, but also have a high social spirit and are able to make positive contributions to society.

The Chancellor of UNISA Yogyakarta, Dr. Warsiti, S.Kp., M.Kep., Sp.Mat, in her remarks said that as many as 800 students participating in the BAP will get a strengthening of Muhammadiyah ‘Aisyiyah ideology. Warsiti also added that this opportunity is a privilege for UNISA Yogyakarta students, because they can learn directly from important figures in ‘Aisyiyah.

“Maybe only you UNISA Yogyakarta students who get this kind of opportunity, because it will not be obtained outside of UNISA with materials that will be obtained from the general chairman of the ‘Aisyiyah Central Leadership because UNISA is directly under it,” said Warsiti.

The Chairperson of the ‘Aisyiyah Central Leadership (PPA), Dr. apt. Salmah Orbayinah, M.Kes, was also present to encourage the BAP participants. She advised students to always be committed to building and contributing to the surrounding community by spreading kindness.

“The purpose of holding this BAP is to increase the capacity of charitable work with good cadres, equipped with qualified abilities in the field of learning and in the spiritual field. Of course, we are expected to become cadres who are able to improve and develop the capacity of charitable work,” said Salmah.

The BAP 2025 activities are divided into 6 batches to ensure that all participants can participate fully in the activities. Apart from receiving material from the speakers, participants are also invited to discuss, exchange experiences, and formulate solutions to various problems faced by the community.
