While a guest speaker Prof. Claudia explained the multicultural and multireligious conditions that she encountered in Germany. She also emphasized how the dialogue between religious communities became the best solution to establish relationships between people of different religions to create peace between religious communities. Another attractive message, Prof. Claudia, that radicalism is a form of movement to counter globalization which is more oriented to the West. A radicalism movement is also a form of rejection of internalization. So the radicalism movement is a movement of people who are not ready to face the global era. This means that the radicals are not capable to comprehend the flow of science.

Therefore students have the spirit to study more diligently. Conduct a variety of positive activities, think more openly and be more tolerant of anything and anyone without objecting backgrounds, especially religious backgrounds. So that it can approach the global era well. Become a superior generation, win global competition, with the understanding of Islam that rahmatan lil alamin. Furthermore, this activity is also expected to be the first step for the IKS study program to start cooperation with institutions and NGOs in Germany. (Aulia- internship)
