UNISA Yogyakarta Community Service Program Teaches Financial Literacy to Kindergarten Children

,

Financial literacy is now an essential skill, not only for adults but also for children. Recognizing the importance of this, students from the University of ‘Aisyiyah (UNISA) Yogyakarta Group 47 took the initiative to hold an educational activity at Pertiwi 30 Kindergarten, Gedongsari, Wijirejo, Pandak, Bantul. The event, which took place on Thursday (08/21/2025), aimed to instill an understanding of personal finance from an early age.

Field Supervisor (DPL), Bdn. Dwi Ernawati, S.ST., M.Keb., accompanied the students in an activity themed “Storytelling about Financial Literacy and Painting Savings”.

Erna stated that this approach was chosen to make the material easy to understand and enjoyable for the children.

“During the storytelling session, the KKN students introduced basic concepts, such as the difference between needs and wants. They encouraged the children to discuss the importance of prioritizing purchases for needs, like schoolbooks, over mere wants, like new toys,” Erna explained.

Erna added that the students also taught the children how to manage their pocket money using an educational approach. They encouraged the children to divide their pocket money into three categories: spending, saving, and sharing. This concept is expected to instill the habit of budgeting and saving from an early age.

The highlight of this activity is the art of saving. Each child is given a piggy bank, which they decorate themselves. By having a piggy bank, children can see the growth of their savings firsthand, fostering a sense of pride and motivation to continue saving. This program is clear evidence of the contribution of KKN students in shaping a financially literate and responsible generation.

UNISA Yogyakarta Students Plant LOSIDA for Waste Management

,

Students from the Community Service Program (KKN) at Universitas ‘Aisyiyah (UNISA) Yogyakarta Group 43 once again demonstrated their contribution to the community. Through one of their flagship programs, they have been actively implementing LOSIDA (Kitchen Waste Composting) in every neighborhood unit (RT) in the Padukuhan Gesikan IV area, Wijirejo, Pandak, Bantul on Friday (August 22, 2025). This program is designed as a simple and environmentally friendly solution to optimize the management of household organic waste.

The LOSIDA planting activity was carried out in stages, involving all elements of the community, from residents, neighborhood association leaders, to representatives of the PKK (Family Welfare Movement) as the main drivers. The lodong used are PVC pipes planted in the ground, functioning as containers to decompose kitchen waste into natural compost.

The head of KKN Group 43, Muhammad Iqbal, explained that this program is expected to be the answer to the problem of household waste accumulation.

“In addition to reducing waste, the compost from LOSIDA can be used by the community to fertilize plants in their yards,” said Iqbal.

The enthusiasm of the residents in welcoming this program is very high, as evidenced by their active participation in the planting process and their commitment to caring for it. With this simple innovation, UNISA Yogyakarta’s Community Service Program hopes to foster a culture of sustainable and useful waste management in rural areas. This program is clear evidence of the contribution of Community Service Program students in creating positive change in the community.

BEM KM UNISA Yogyakarta Successfully Holds Discussion on Maintaining Brotherhood

,

Yogyakarta, August 20, 2025, A total of 100 students from various student organizations gathered at the UNISA Yogyakarta Basketball Court to participate in a discussion entitled “Youth Leadership: Revitalizing Modern Student Organizations.” The event featured cross-campus panelists: Tiyo Ardianto (President of the Student Executive Board, UGM), Fatur Djaguna (General Coordinator of the DIY Student Executive Board and President of Unjaya), and Lukmannul Hakim (President of UNISA Yogyakarta).

The discussion was dynamic and reflective. In addition to emphasizing the importance of brotherhood and collaboration, the three speakers highlighted the root causes and structural challenges affecting the lives of student organizations today.

Tiyo opened the discussion with a chronological emphasis: according to him, the decline in organizational practices began during the COVID-19 pandemic. “The pandemic forced the postponement or shift of the regeneration process, regular meetings, and other collective practices to the virtual space—and that had a long-term impact on organizational capacity,” he said.

Tiyo added that the continuation of the Merdeka Belajar — Kampus Merdeka (MBKM) policy also had an impact, with academic mobility and the division of time between academic and external activities changing the patterns of student involvement in student organizations. He underlined the need to design flexible working patterns for student organizations while maintaining continuity in regeneration and participation.

Fatur Djaguna continued with a historical perspective. In his brief presentation, Fatur examined the journey of leadership and student movements in Yogyakarta—from the tradition of public dialogue and cross-campus solidarity to the transformation of forms of action that occurred alongside socio-political changes. According to him, understanding the historical traces of the movement is very important for formulating revitalization strategies that do not repeat the failures of the past.

“The history of the movement teaches us about tactics, the ethics of struggle, and the importance of institution building,” he said.

Meanwhile, Lukmannul Hakim highlighted generational issues that are often a source of internal friction. Lukman pointed out the gap between the leadership style of the previous generation—which tends to be hierarchical and based on long experience—and the leadership style of young people, which is more exploratory, digital, and results-oriented.

“This gap is not merely a conflict; it is an opportunity to synthesize experience and innovation. However, without good communication bridges, the gap can divide unity,” he said.

Lukman invited student organizations to formulate knowledge transfer mechanisms that respect both sides: respect for tradition and space for renewal.

The discussion also raised issues of education, economics, socio-politics, and digital media literacy.

The final session closed with the reading of a seven-point statement on Youth Leadership.
