Abstract

The Indonesian Student Exchange Program (Pertukaran Mahasiswa Merdeka/PMM) is a strategic initiative by the Ministry of Education, Culture, Research, and Technology of the Republic of Indonesia aimed at strengthening students' national insight and appreciation of diversity through inter-university mobility. This community service activity aimed to assist PMM participants (Ardhikari) at Politeknik Negeri Semarang (Polines) in completing the Modul Nusantara through four types of activities: diversity exposure, reflection, inspiration, and social contribution. The one-semester program consisted of 8 diversity activities, 5 reflection sessions, 2 inspiration events, and 1 social contribution activity. Activities included cultural visits to historical and heritage sites (such as Lawang Sewu, Sam Poo Kong, Gedong Songo, Yogyakarta), reflective discussions in various settings, inspirational sessions with cultural and social figures, and a community contribution event at an orphanage. The results showed an increase in students' understanding of diversity, enhanced character through reflection, improved motivation through inspirational activities, and a growing sense of social awareness. This program proved effective in shaping students to be tolerant, reflective, inspired, and socially responsible individuals.
