Aditya is the awardee of Insan UGM Berprestasi 2016 in Pioneer of Empowerment of Disadvantageous, Outermost, and Foremost Area. Her main concern is in contributing to human resources development.

Moreover, Aditya also is a mentor in Sakola Rimba in Jambi and Nusa Tenggara Timur. Through this foundation, Aditya applied practical counting, writing, and reading methods in order to assist children and adults out from their illiteracy condition. All of her activities were based on her admiration towards Indonesia. Not only her admiration towards how large Indonesia’s archipelago to be explored, Aditya also decided to do something to help people in the disadvantageous, outermost, and foremost area to earn their rights and acknowledgement.
Mostly, she spoke about formal education with cultural approach because it felt as something important because formal education and its curriculum seem careless to local culture identity. This is the reason why ‘rimba’ children cannot adapt with formal education applied in the national education system, and this will affect the sustainability of Suku Anak Dalam because of its incompatibility.
