UNISA Yogyakarta Nurtures Excellent Human Resources Through AIK Refreshing

,

Universitas ‘Aisyiyah (UNISA) Yogyakarta has once again demonstrated its commitment in producing superior human resources based on Islamic and Muhammadiyah values. This step was realized through the Al-Islam and Kemuhammadiyahan (AIK) Refreshing activity which must be attended by all lecturers and education staff (tendik) on Monday (24/03).

With the theme “Internalization of Al-Islam and Kemuhammadiyahan to Dynamize the Ethos of Superior Human Resources,” this event aims to strengthen Muhammadiyah ideology among UNISA academic community.

The Rector of UNISA Yogyakarta, Dr. Warsiti, S.Kp.,M.Kep.,Sp.Mat., in her speech emphasized the importance of having an entrepreneur mentality for all human resources in UNISA Yogyakarta.

“We must see UNISA as a company that requires hard work and innovation to achieve prosperity,” said Warsiti.

Warsiti added that this event is an important momentum to remind each other and strengthen our commitment in advancing UNISA. “We will together take care and bring UNISA to be even better,” she said.

In line with that, the Chairperson of UNISA Yogyakarta’s Daily Board of Trustees (BPH), Dr. Siti Noordjannah Djohantini, M.M., M.Si., reminded that the achievement of UNISA’s excellence was not achieved instantly.

“This excellence is the result of a long struggle and endeavor colored by sweat and tears,” she said.

Noordjannah invited all elements of UNISA, ranging from lecturers, staff, leaders, to BPH, to maintain and improve the excellence that has been achieved by UNISA Yogyakarta.

“We must implement this excellence in the best service to students, parents, society, and Muhammadiyah and ‘Aisyiyah,” she said.

The AIK Refreshing activity presented seven competent speakers from various backgrounds, including elements of the Muhammadiyah Central Leadership (PP), PP ‘Aisyiyah, academics, and professionals. They provided in-depth material on the internalization of Islamic and Muhammadiyah values in the context of developing superior human resources.

MPM PP Muhammadiyah and Unisa Yogyakarta Empower Disability

,

The Community Empowerment Council (MPM) of the Muhammadiyah Central Leadership together with ‘Aisyiyah University (Unisa) Yogyakarta continues to empower the community. Community empowerment is no exception for disabilities in the Special Region of Yogyakarta (DIY).

“Muhammadiyah has historical roots as a defender of the marginalized,” said Chairman of MPM PP Muhammadiyah, Dr. M. Nurul Yamin, M.Si., during the Social Inclusion Forum of Ramadan Recitation with the Community Assisted by MPM PP Muhammadiyah, at the Convention Hall of Walidah Dahlan Mosque, Sunday (23/3/2025).

Yamin said that what MPM PP Muhammadiyah wanted to do in the defense of the marginalized was through spiritual and social empowerment. As in the activities held this time, it is part of the empowerment effort.

“This empowerment requires a lot of time and resources. Therefore, we collaborate, both within the Muhammadiyah Association and with partners. In the empowerment movement towards marginalized people, of course we have taken into account the efficiency aspect. However, this movement must continue and must not stop,” said Yamin.

According to Yamin, the efficiency of the government should not be a reason to ignore the community or marginalized people in need. Therefore, Muhammadiyah has made various breakthroughs.

“The strategy we use is circular economy, which is an empowerment-based economy that supports each other in the Muhammadiyah ecosystem. For example, the produce from Jamaah Tani Muhammadiyah is consumed by Muhammadiyah business charities, including products such as rice and eggs,” he said.

Yamin said most of the activities focus on empowerment through Muhammadiyah’s internal networks. “What we always emphasize is that even though we experience material limitations, we must not be mentally poor. Our mentality must remain rich, even though we are economically limited. Because many people are materially abundant, but have a poor mentality,” said Yamin.

Yamin revealed that currently there are around 1,500 communities that are fostered or empowered by MPM PP Muhammadiyah. “This empowerment aims to build a strong mentality,” said Yamin.

Rector of UNISA Yogyakarta, Dr. Warsiti, S.Kp., M.Kep., Sp.Mat. said the agenda was to build a grassroots network. “Hopefully this agenda will also bring blessings and happiness to all of us,” said Warsiti.

Warsiti said this activity was also in line with the vision and values upheld by Unisa Yogyakarta, namely inclusiveness, empowerment, and strengthening the role of grassroots communities in building common welfare. “Our presence in the community is an important part in sustaining national development, while realizing our vision in Yogyakarta and at the national level,” she said.

On this occasion, Unisa Yogyakarta also launched the Al-Maun Scholarship, which is the Muhammadiyah Superior Foster Child Scholarship. This scholarship is a Higher Education assistance from the form of synergy between Unisa Yogyakarta and MPM.

Mental Health

Lecturer of Psychology Study Program of Universitas ‘Aisyiyah (UNISA) Yogyakarta, Ratna Yunita Setiyani Subardjo, S.Psi, M.Psi, Psychologist received an award from Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia for her dedication and attention to mental health issues. Ratna takes a role to help maintain mental health not only in Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia students but also families and the environment.

The woman who is currently pursuing her doctoral degree at Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia is considered instrumental in helping to provide help through programs related to mental health, as well as approaches with counseling and psychotherapy. Ratna’s mental health programs have had a positive impact on many Indonesian students at Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia in particular, and students from various other countries in general.

Nita said that mental health is the main factor to make someone happy and empowered. Like gasoline, mental health is the driving force for the body to move forward, moving with enthusiasm, because it is empowered and happy to do so.

“Happy is not just about happiness that is always laughing, but being able to benefit others and be an inspiration to rise from adversity or problems, is a big output for those who are in trouble. Cases that occur in students, families, couples, and the general public are more about mild to severe mental health cases,” said Nita, Tuesday (11/3/2025).

Nita further said that mild mental health cases can actually be trained to be self-managed, if it is medium then it needs to be assisted with counseling and mild therapy depending on the case. If it is severe, it needs to be referred or assisted with therapy with regular assistance. Some serious cases related to depression, suicide, and severe mental disorders are of special concern.

“Not only students are involved in the counseling and therapy process, but also their families. Efforts to maintain mental health are carried out with various efforts such as preventive, curative, promotive and rehabilitative. Preventive with promotive in the form of mental health campaigns, in collaboration with PKPK UKM (PsiTra Psychology Clinic and Consultation Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia), Persatuan Pelajar Indonesia Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia and PSITRA (Center for Psychology and Human Welfare Studies),” he explained.

Nita emphasized that mental health is an issue that needs attention today. Because there is no health without mental health. “If we are physically sick, if we have the will and motivation to recover, we will diligently take medicine, diligently come to a counselor or psychologist to make us better. If we are mentally ill, even though we are physically healthy, we feel like we don’t want to do anything, so feelings of anxiety, overthinking, anxiety that can lead to depression that develops into mental disorders if not immediately prevented,” said Nita.

Nita also hopes that many more parties will pay attention to mental health issues. This can be done by improving communication, empathy, creativity, networking. “Action soon/do it now starting from now. From simple things and from ourselves,” said Nita.
