The Institute for Research Governance and Social Change (IRGSC) in Kupang, West Timor, Indonesia, which runs the Nusantara School of Difference (NSD), is shifting its focus to training community activists and organizers. Since 2017, NSD programs have been devoted to intellectually engaging the many ongoing socioeconomic challenges of Indonesian society, with a special emphasis on historical continuity. While NSD will continue to run programs focused on contemporary challenges in Indonesia, it aims to focus more explicitly on training a younger generation of community activists and organizers who can inculcate the CEDAR methodology and pedagogy into myriad different civic initiatives in Timor and East Nusa Tenggara (Nusa Tenggara Timur.)
