Contribute to Our Research
AFIRMASI is an independent academic initiative. We look for field collaborators, research assistants, and technical experts who want to build equitable science education in Indonesia's 3T regions.
Our Research Culture
We are a doctoral initiative. We build our culture on academic integrity, field immersion, and deep respect for the communities we study.
Academic Co-Authorship
We recognize field contributions. We offer exceptional research assistants the opportunity to be acknowledged or co-authored in our international journal submissions.
Grounded in Field Reality
We do not build algorithms in a vacuum. We spend time in the classrooms of Kupang. We observe the true constraints of off-grid learning before we write any code.
Ethics & Data Sovereignty
We handle ethnographic interviews and AI logs with care. We adhere strictly to international research ethics. We prioritize the privacy and dignity of students.
Open Roles
We offer project-based and fellowship positions to support field research and rural deployment.
