SDG 11 : Sustainable Cities and Communities

FIB UI is committed to develop the study of humanity that integrates teaching and research for the advancement of culture and humanity. To realize the vision, FIB UI builds facilities and infrastructure both for students and lecturers as well as for the public to study arts and culture. Some of the facilities that have been built for this purpose are sample lands and sites to study the excavation and maintenance of historic buildings, open spaces built for outdoor lectures, and some areas for exhibiting ancient objects and the past.
