This article aims to understand and analyse Indonesia's involvement in ensuring peace, especially in peacebuilding efforts in Afghanistan. Indonesia’s commitment to improve its peace efforts in Afghanistan was expressed by President Joko Widodo during his visit to Kabul in 2018. This research used Lederach’s pyramid model of peacebuilding as the primary analysis tool. Lederach’s pyramid model identifies three approaches to peacebuilding, along with the main actors in the population affected by the conflict—namely top leadership, middle range leadership, and grass-root leadership. The results of the study show that Indonesia's involvement in Afghanistan in peace efforts has been carried out at all levels. Indonesia's peacebuilding efforts at the top level are focused on achieving Intra-Afghan Talks. At the middle range level, Indonesia runs capacity building programs and uses a religious approach through ulama. Furthermore, at the grassroots level, Indonesia focuses on empowering Afghan women as peace agents. The presence of Indonesia in all three approaches to Peacebuilding shows a positive mark for the overall Afghan peace process.

Abstract-As the country with athelargestMoslem population in the world, the study on the guarantee of halal products in Indonesia has not been optimally implemented. Currently, not all products circulating in the society are guaranteed to be halal, yet. Whereas the consumption of halal products is a major requirement for Moslems.

To obtain halal certification, a product will be examined and/or tested by a Halal Inspecting Agency that meets requirements such as laboratory ownership, researchers, and offices.Within this context, universities as the center of excellence which has an inherent obligation in scientific development and community service is a highly prepared institution that also meets the requirements to become a Halal Inspection Agency. Besides having infrastructure readiness in the form of laboratory equipment and office infrastructure facilities, some universities also have experts who have the experience to be a halal auditor of MajelisUlama Indonesia (MUI). Using qualitative research methods, this paper describes the strategies of higher education institutions, specifically,universities can actively contribute to supports Indonesia's halal product guarantee policy in 2019. First, higher education institutions especially universities can be the accountable Halal Inspection Agencies.
