Op-Eds

Ideas That Challenge. Perspectives That Move.

At CELIOS, we believe policy ideas should not remain confined to conference rooms and academic papers. Our op-eds bring rigorous research and critical perspectives into the public sphere—challenging dominant narratives, unpacking complex issues, and sparking informed debates on fiscal justice, climate transition, and Indonesia’s evolving global role.

We write to inform, provoke, and inspire action—ensuring that evidence-based insights help shape fairer and more accountable policies.
