Participants were allowed to compete either individually or in teams.

The organization of the Three Minutes Research Competition reflects FH UGM’s commitment to fostering an inclusive, competitive, and impactful research culture. The event aligns with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly SDG 4 (Quality Education) by strengthening students’ research-based academic capacities. In addition, the competition supports SDG 9 (Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure) by encouraging innovative legal ideas that respond to contemporary societal developments. It also contributes to SDG 16 (Peace, Justice and Strong Institutions), as the legal research produced by participants has the potential to inform public policy recommendations and support legal reform initiatives.
Through this forum, FH UGM not only provides recognition for outstanding student achievements but also strengthens an academic ecosystem that promotes high-quality research as a foundation for equitable and sustainable legal development.
