This activity was held offline in the 9th Floor Seminar Room, Siti Moendjijah Building, UNISA Yogyakarta. The enthusiasm of the participants in this activity was extraordinary. It was proven that the number of participants who participated amounted to 120 people from the original target of only 55 people. Participants consisted of school principals, library heads, and librarians/library managers and teachers of Muhammadiyah schools in Yogyakarta and surrounding areas.

The national seminar, literacy strengthening, grants and workshops were held in cooperation with various stakeholders. This activity was opened directly by the Rector of UNISA Yogyakarta, Dr. Warsiti, S.Kep, M.Kep., Sp. Mat. She explained that this activity is a form of community service through UNISA Yogya Library, UAD, UMY to share knowledge to improve the quality of library services in schools. An excellent library can be a determinant of an advanced school. “The existence of the library must always be improved by following the era of the generation it serves,” added the chairman of MPI PWM DIY, Mr. Afan Kurniawan, MT. He also explained that libraries, especially in the Muhammadiyah environment, can be developed through networking, the use of ICT, and innovation. One of the concepts that can be done by university libraries in supporting the quality of school libraries is through this activity, said Mrs. Irkhamiyati, M.IP., as Head of UNISA Yogya Library as well as Chairperson of FPPTMA in her speech.

The opening speech was followed by the handover of grants from UNISA Yogyakarta Library to SD Muhammadiyah Mlangi Library. The grant was symbolically handed over by the Rector of UNISA Yogyakarta to the Head of SD Muhammadiyah Mlangi. The grant is in the form of bookshelves, printed books, barcode scanner, and a set of computers, and assistance until the functioning of library automation. As a series of activities, there were also promotional activities for UNISA Yogyakarta delivered by the Admissions Team as well as the socialization of ebook grants from Digido-Graha Ilmu.

A seminar on strengthening literacy for school libraries also enlivened the event. The seminar with speakers Abdul Wahid Aziz, S.I.Pust and Moderator Muh. Erdianyah. C.A., S.IP. discusses “The role of libraries and librarians in supporting the Merdeka Curriculum”. Libraries must be able to collaborate with school stakeholders (teachers and staff) and the curriculum in order to create innovation. The resource person, as well as the Head of the SMA Muhammadiyah 1 Yogyakarta Library, explained that the school curriculum will always develop, so the library must find a gap by innovating so that the library can still carry out its role. Some tips that libraries can do are by providing quality reading material, providing e-library facilities and strengthening literacy programs. The seminar was followed by a workshop on information technology-based library management. Participants learned about utilizing the SLiMS application for library automation. The material covered installation to practical use of the application. The speakers in this workshop were Mr. Sulistya Adhi Gunawan, A.Md. and Mrs. Sri Wahyuni, SIP. The latest SLiMS application that can be utilized is Bulian 9. This application has the advantage of being more attractive, easy to develop, and more flexible, said the speaker. The main obstacle in SLiMS installation is the lack of compatibility of devices or errors. The next material was about features and bibliographic input using SliMS by the second resource person. Automated library collections can be inputted on SLiMS to make it easier for users. Hopefully today’s seminars, grants and workshops can help school libraries improve the quality of their services.

Aisyiyah Central Leadership Health Assembly Holds Climate Change Seminar

/0 Comments/in , /by

The Aisyiyah Central Leadership Health Assembly held a seminar on climate change, the role of women, and health to realize a resilient Indonesian society, at Aisyiyah University (UNISA) Yogyakarta, Saturday (11/11). The seminar aimed to look at the relationship between climate change, health aspects and the role of women in environmental adaptation. In addition, it also aims to understand more deeply the influence of climate change on physical, mental and other climate-sensitive health conditions both directly and indirectly and to understand the role of women in environmental adaptation due to climate change.

Rector of UNISA Yogyakarta and Chairperson of the Aisyiyah Central Leadership Health Assembly, Dr. Warsiti, S.Kp., M.Kep., Sp.Mat in her speech said that climate change is currently a humanitarian issue that has a major effect on human life and the environment. According to her, women and children are one of the most vulnerable groups to climate change that causes disasters. This is because the livelihood of women’s groups is very dependent on natural resources that are threatened by climate change, especially for those who live in rural areas. Unequal access to resources and decision-making processes, limited mobility put women in rural areas in a position where they are disproportionately affected by climate change. But it can also be experienced by women in other areas, including urban areas with their different risks.

Warsiti further emphasized that women have adequate capacity as effective agents of change in climate change mitigation and adaptation efforts.

”If empowered properly and build and manage their capacity, women will be able to have knowledge and skills that can be used in climate change mitigation, disaster risk reduction strategies and also adaptation. This is because women have responsibilities in the household/family and community, as stewards of natural resources and households”, said Warsiti.

According to him, handling the problem of climate change must be done together, through Aisyiyah, involving all stake holders and also including the young generation. Therefore, this seminar presented speakers from various circles, including the Muhammadiyah Aisyiyah Association, the Ministry of Health, academics, environmental practitioners and young activists.

This hybrid seminar was attended by 300 participants from various elements including leaders of assemblies and institutions in muhammadiyah/aisyiyah, aisyiyah and muhammadiyah business charities, academics, partnership institutions and international donor agencies, civil society organizations, climate change observers, the general public and students.
