Deputy National Police Chief Commissioner General Dedi Prasetyo has\nreceived the \u2018Visionary Leader of National Security\u2019 award from the\nFaculty of Law at Sultan Agung Islamic University (Unissula). The award\nwas presented directly by Unissula Rector Prof H Gunarto during a visit\nto the National Police Headquarters in South Jakarta.<\/p>\n
Gunarto stated that the award was given as academic recognition for\nWakapolri Dedi Prasetyo\u2019s visionary leadership in driving institutional\nreform within the Indonesian National Police. He noted that Dedi has\nsuccessfully strengthened human resource quality, transformed police\neducation, developed scientific policing, and built strategic\ncollaboration between the police institution and universities as a\nfoundation for strengthening the national security system.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe Faculty of Law Unissula bestows the award of The Visionary\nLeader of National Security upon the Deputy Police Chief because we\nassess that he has succeeded in presenting a new paradigm in the\ndevelopment of the Police institution. The reform of police education,\nstrengthening the quality of human resources, developing scientific\npolicing, transforming STIK-PTIK towards a Police University, and\nestablishing a network of Police Study Centres with universities are\nvisionary steps that show national security must be built on the\nfoundation of science, research, and innovation,\u201d Prof Gunarto said in a\nstatement on Wednesday (8\/7\/2026).<\/p>\n
Gunarto explained that visionary leadership is not only about\nanswering today\u2019s challenges but also preparing the institution to face\nfuture changes. He said what the Deputy Police Chief has done is a\nlong-term investment for the birth of a police force that is more\nprofessional, adaptive, humanist, and capable of responding to global\nsecurity dynamics through collaboration with the academic world.<\/p>\n
Under the coordination of the Deputy Police Chief in the field of\norganisational development, the police organisation is currently\ncarrying out various strategic reform agendas. These include the\ndevelopment of a Digital Leadership Laboratory at the Police Staff and\nCommand School to shape adaptive leaders in the digital era, the\nconstruction of a Social Laboratory at the Police Academy as a vehicle\nfor implementing scientific policing, the transformation of STIK-PTIK\ntowards a Police University, the establishment of Police Study Centres\nwith 77 universities across Indonesia, curriculum reform oriented\ntowards human rights, leadership, and public service, and improving\ninvestigator competence through a national certification programme.<\/p>\n
He said the transformation is directed at strengthening the police\u2019s\nability to face contemporary security challenges, including handling\ncybercrime, protecting women and children, eradicating human\ntrafficking, and improving the quality of science and technology-based\npolice services.<\/p>\n
On the same occasion, the Deputy Police Chief expressed his\nappreciation for the trust given by the Faculty of Law Unissula. He\nstated that the award is an honour for all police personnel who continue\nto be committed to institutional transformation.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe transformation of the Police cannot be done alone. We need\npartnerships with universities so that every policy, education system,\nand law enforcement effort is increasingly based on research and science\nand is able to answer the needs of the community. Academic collaboration\nis an important part of building a more professional, modern, and\npublicly trusted Police force,\u201d said Commissioner General Dedi.<\/p>\n
Furthermore, Commissioner General Dedi was invited by Unissula to be\nthe keynote speaker at the International Seminar on the Protection of\nWomen and Children and the Eradication of Human Trafficking, which will\nbe held on 30 July 2026. The international forum will feature delegates\nfrom 18 countries across five continents to discuss strategies for\nhandling transnational crime, particularly those related to the\nprotection of women, children, and human trafficking. Dedi welcomed the\ninvitation and emphasised that international collaboration with the\nacademic world is an important part of strengthening the Police\u2019s\ncapacity, especially to face increasingly complex and cross-border\ncrimes.<\/p>", "url": "https:\/\/jawawa.id\/newsitem\/deputy-police-chief-receives-visionary-leader-of-national-security-award-from-unissula-1783515294", "image": "" }, "sponsor": "Okusi Associates", "sponsor_url": "https:\/\/okusiassociates.com" }
