Makassar, 11 September 2026 — The Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences (FMHS) of Universitas Muhammadiyah Makassar (Unismuh Makassar) held a Workshop on the Development of a Research and Community Engagement Roadmap (PkM) at the FKIK Unismuh Makassar Building.

The workshop was attended by FMHS lecturers and researchers as part of the faculty’s efforts to strengthen the direction of research and community engagement in a more focused, sustainable, and relevant manner, in line with developments in health sciences and the needs of society.

The workshop aimed to develop an integrated and strategic research and community engagement roadmap aligned with the faculty’s vision and mission. The process included mapping the potential, expertise, and research and community engagement activities already undertaken within FMHS, while also aligning them with national strategic health issues and the Scientific Core (Pola Ilmiah Pokok/PIP) of Universitas Muhammadiyah Makassar.

Dean of FMHS Unismuh Makassar, Prof. Dr. dr. Suryani As’ad, M.Sc., Sp.GK., Subsp.KM., emphasized the importance of the roadmap as a strategic foundation for advancing research and community engagement within the faculty. “This roadmap serves as an important foundation for FMHS to ensure that research and community engagement have a clear and integrated direction and generate meaningful benefits. We want the potential and expertise of our academic community to be developed optimally and sustainably.”

The workshop featured Prof. Dr. Syamsia, S.IP., M.P. and Prof. Dr. Agustan, S.Pd., M.Pd. as national experts, along with Dr. dr. Ami Febriza Achmad, M.Kes and Dr. Lismayana Hansur, M.Si as facilitators. Participants received presentations on the FMHS research and community engagement baseline for 2025–2026, the strategic direction of FMHS research and community engagement for 2026–2029, as well as the concept of research clusters and the integration of research with community engagement.

During the main session, participants were organized into research groups to develop the stages of the 2026–2029 research roadmap, followed by the development of research outcomes and expertise into community intervention programs as part of the community engagement roadmap. Each cluster subsequently presented its proposed roadmap in a plenary session to receive feedback and ensure alignment among the research groups.

Through this workshop, FMHS Unismuh Makassar aims to establish a more structured direction for research and community engagement through research groups based on disciplinary areas of expertise, with targeted outputs including publications in reputable journals, Intellectual Property Rights (IPR), patents, policy recommendations, modules, and appropriate technologies. The roadmap is expected to serve as a strategic foundation for strengthening the faculty’s research culture while ensuring that research outcomes can be effectively implemented and contribute meaningfully to society.
