Kartini Day is celebrated every April 21. The spirit of struggle possessed by Raden Ajeng Kartini reminds us of the courage of women in fighting for equal rights and opportunities. Through her idea of “Out of the Dark Comes the Light”, Kartini paved the way for the birth of hope, education, and a fairer future for women.
This commemoration is a momentum to continue to encourage gender equality in various aspects of life, including in the educational and social environment. Hopefully Kartini’s spirit will always live on in every step of Indonesian women to continue to be empowered, work, and bring change towards a more inclusive and equal society.
