I somehow picked up two certificates recently.
One from a course called Sustainable Development: Ideas and Imaginaries. The second was from an extension philosophy course called Eco-technology: Urgency, Emergence, or Illusion? (which, admittedly, was much more interesting as a topic than as an actual course).
What I didn’t expect was how often both ended up circling the same question:
How do we know we’re making progress, and who gets to decide?
I don’t know. FIFA, perhaps.
I was seriously considering turning part of my savings into a public policy master’s degree. Then I realised I was already getting a fairly intensive introduction for free. (Thanks, Jokowi) So I decided liquidity might be the more prudent policy choice.
I suppose many Indonesians are already pursuing a hypothetical master’s degree in surviving the regime. The fieldwork component has been particularly robust lately. ⋆·˚ ༘ *⚠️💣💥
