On October 8, 2024, the Faculty of Law of Diponegoro University (FH Undip) will hold a National Seminar with the theme “The Urgency of Legal Practice with Spiritual Intelligence in Realizing a Criminal Justice System that Brings Happiness to the People.” This activity is part of the series of events for the 3rd National Conference (Munas) of the Alumni Family Association of the Faculty of Law, Diponegoro University (IKAFH Undip), which is taking place in Room 304, Prof. Satjipto Rahardjo Building, Faculty of Law, Undip.

This seminar features prominent speakers in the field of criminal law who provide new perspectives and ideas on the importance of prioritizing spiritual intelligence in law enforcement practices. In his opening speech, the Dean of the Faculty of Law at Undip, represented by the Deputy Dean for Academic Affairs and Student Affairs, Dr. Aditya Yuli Sulistyawan, S.H., M.H., emphasized the importance of this seminar in highlighting the spiritual aspects of law enforcement that are often overlooked, yet have a significant impact on the well-being of society.

This seminar was attended by important figures, including:

1. Prof. Dr. Asep Nana Mulyana, S.H., M.Hum, Deputy Attorney General for General Crimes at the Indonesian Attorney General’s Office, discusses the use of spiritual intelligence in the approach of prosecutors towards law enforcement that brings happiness to the people.
2. Dr. Achmad Setyo Pudjoharsoyo, S.H., M.Hum, Supreme Court Justice of the Criminal Chamber of the Supreme Court of the Republic of Indonesia, expressed his views on the efforts of the Supreme Court in reforming legal practices by utilizing spiritual intelligence towards the establishment of progressive law that brings happiness to society.

4. Dr. Ade Adhari, S.H., M.H., Executive Director of DECRIM IKAFH Undip, emphasizes the importance of legal reform based on spiritual intelligence in an increasingly complex world.

This seminar is moderated by Anggita Doramia Lumbanraja, S.H., M.H., a lecturer at the Faculty of Law of Undip, who guides the interactive discussion with the participants. This event was also warmly welcomed by Dr. Ahmad Redi, S.H., M.H., the General Chair of IKAFH Undip, as well as Chintia Sriwijaya, S.H., M.Kn, the Chair of the 3rd Munas IKAFH Undip, who also delivered remarks during the opening of the event.

In addition to the national seminar, this event is broadcast live through the YouTube platform on the official IKAFH Undip channel, as well as via Zoom Meeting, allowing alumni and legal practitioners from all over Indonesia to participate.

This seminar successfully provided deep insights into the importance of spiritual intelligence in law enforcement. The speakers emphasized that in facing various challenges of law enforcement in Indonesia, an approach that solely focuses on formal legal aspects often falls short of achieving substantive justice and the welfare of the community. Therefore, spiritual intelligence can be an important element to complement a more humane, just law enforcement process, ultimately capable of bringing happiness to the people.

This event is expected to make a positive contribution to promoting legal reform in Indonesia, particularly in the field of criminal law, as well as strengthening the synergy between alumni and the academic community of the Faculty of Law at Undip in addressing legal issues in the future.
