What Is a Memorandum Persefahaman (MOU)?
A Memorandum Persefahaman, or Memorandum of Understanding, is a written agreement between two or more parties that records their shared intentions, responsibilities, and the preliminary terms of a proposed collaboration. Although generally not legally binding in the same way as a formal contract, an MOU carries significant moral and professional weight, demonstrating that both sides have agreed on the framework for moving forward. It commonly covers objectives, roles, resource contributions, timelines, and confidentiality. MOUs are widely used in government, academia, and the private sector to formalize cooperation before final contracts are executed.
