Village Development

Universitas Negeri Yogyakarta has long been active in reviving the rural economy, one of which was in 2001 in the village. One example is  Dusun Kiran Canden Jetis Bantul with empowerment and mentoring program through mentoring and empowerment collaboration with IPTEKDA-LIPI (Regional Science and Technology – Indonesian Institute of Sciences) , followed by collaborative mentoring program between universities. This herbal medicine business continued to grow but faced obstacles when the earthquake occurred in 2006.
