Assalamu’alaikum wr wb.

Dear all distinguished guests, especially to our honorable keynote speakers,

invited speakers, and the committee of the 1st International Conference on

Gender, Culture and Society 2021 (ICGCS 2021) Responding to Evolving

Challenges Toward Achieving Gender Equality and Social Inclusion prepared

by The Center of Gender, Children and Family Development of Universitas

Andalas, together with The Indonesia Study Center of Women, Gender and

Children Association. A warm welcome from me, from Universitas Andalas,

Padang, Indonesia.

As the Rector of Universitas Andalas, I really appreciate the people behind

this great activity, the collaboration and cooperation between scholars,

researchers, academics, students, policymakers who focus on the issues of

gender. We all know that when we are talking about gender, especially

gender equality and social inclusion, we face various challenges. Still, at the

same time, by holding this conference, we are also confident that we are

going to step forward, together agree to create solutions to minimalize

problems.

This conference is going to discuss a lot of things related to gender. There are

6 keynote speakers from 5 different countries, such as Indonesia, Japan,

Australia, the USA, and Canada. Also, we have 133 presenters who are going

to deliver their presentations with 19 different sub-themes. I know this

conference will become a fruitful discussion. Again, I would like to thank all

the keynote speakers and presenters for sharing your experience and

expertise at the ICGCS 2021. Finally, I would like to deliver my gratitude to the

partner organizations for supporting and contributing to the implementation

of this conference. I hope you all have a very successful conference.

Thank you.

Wassalamu’alaikum Warahmatullahiwabarakatuh.
