ANGGI APRIZAL

I recently completed my Master’s degree in Economics at Universitas Muhammadiyah Yogyakarta (UMY) in June 2025, specializing in Islamic Economics with a focus on banking and finance.

During my studies, I was actively involved in the Graduate Student Association of Islamic Economics, where I helped organize international seminars and conferences that fostered academic collaboration and publication. I also presented and published papers at several conferences and collaborated with lecturers and researchers from UMY and other institutions, both in Indonesia and abroad, primarily on topics related to Islamic banking, finance, and their integration with other sectors.

Alongside my academic journey, I worked as a staff member at the Department of Economics, Faculty of Economics and Business (FEB) UMY, managing partnerships, exchange programs, and guest lectures with domestic and international partners. Currently, I serve as a Teaching and Research Assistant and Community Engagement Facilitator, focusing on financial literacy programs for women, students, and MSMEs in collaboration with Islamic banking institutions.

Driven by a passion for education, sustainability, and community empowerment, I founded Dream Tree Indonesia, a grassroots literacy movement that promotes reading culture among children in remote areas. I also established the ReqTalks Institute, a platform dedicated to advancing economic literacy and cross-sectoral integration, fostering public dialogue on contemporary economic issues.

Since September 2023 until August 2025 , I have also been part of the Office of Internationalization and Collaboration at IPIEF FEB UMY, where I handle MoUs/MoAs, facilitate student exchange programs, and support student achievements at various levels.

Through these academic, research, and community experiences, I have developed a strong foundation in collaborative leadership, sustainable development, and cross-sector partnerships, and I remain committed to contributing to inclusive, innovative, and transformative change in the field of economics and beyond.
