Kraton

Stunting, a chronic nutritional problem that stunts children’s growth, is a serious concern. To address this issue, Universitas `Aisyiyah (UNISA) Yogyakarta in collaboration with the Association of ABA Kindergarten Teachers (IGABA) Kemantren Kraton held a training for ABA kindergarten teachers in Kemantren Kraton. This training aims to optimize the role of School Health Efforts (UKS) in preventing stunting, especially in the first 1,000 days of life (HPK).

The activity, funded by the Indonesian Ministry of Education and Culture, involves cross-disciplinary activities, including midwifery, nursing, and nutrition. The community service team from UNISA Yogyakarta, led by Bdn. Evi Wahyuntari, S.ST., M.Keb., provided material on stunting prevention, measuring height and weight, and using the WHO Antro application to analyze children’s nutritional status.

“Through this training, we hope that ABA kindergarten teachers can play an active role in stunting prevention efforts in the school environment. With the knowledge and skills they have, they can conduct early detection of stunting children and provide appropriate interventions,” said Evi.

In the training, the teachers were not only given theoretical material, but also hands-on practice in measuring children’s height and weight and analyzing the measurement results using the WHO Antro application. In addition, the teachers were also trained to conduct nutrition counseling to parents of children with nutritional problems.

“We really appreciate the initiative of UNISA Yogyakarta for providing this training. This training is very useful for us as kindergarten teachers in our efforts to prevent stunting,” said one of the participants.

Next Steps

After the training, the UNISA Yogyakarta community service team will provide assistance to ABA kindergarten teachers in applying the knowledge gained. This assistance will be carried out through visits to ABA kindergarten schools to monitor the implementation of the stunting prevention program and provide technical assistance if needed.

Pro Handini

The Unisa Yogyakarta Community Service Team (PKM) conducted a community service activity entitled Pro Handini (Interdisciplinary-based Early Marriage Prevention Program) at SMP Muhammadiyah 7 Yogyakarta on August 23, 2024. This activity is one of the PKMs that has been funded by Kemristekdikti for the 2024 fiscal year.

The team leader, Endang Koni Suryaningsih, MSc.N-M., Ph.D. stated that this activity was the result of a follow-up to the proposing team’s previous research on early marriage in Yogyakarta which recommended to educate about the impact of early marriage in the school environment, in addition, Pro Handini was created based on the analysis of the content of health education materials at the partner site that the students’ formal source of information on reproductive health comes from science subjects in class IX semester 1.

Ideally, information about reproductive health is given as early as possible to students. In addition, the material content discussed is still very general and superficial, while students need specific, in-depth and unique reproductive health information, besides that students also need to be equipped with a psychological approach in understanding the concept of RHR. There are 2 programs carried out by the PKM ProHandini team, namely the absence of an Adolescent Reproductive Health Information Center in an effort to prevent early marriage and the low knowledge of students regarding the concept of adolescent reproductive health, psychological health and the use of social media.

The Pro Handini team consists of Dyorita Kh, S.Psi, M.Psi. Psychologist and Ade Putra TWS, S.Ilkom, M.A. and from students consisting of psychology students (Danar Gumilang Hartono and Desi Permatasari), Midwifery students (Salma Nurahmawati and Alluna Kylla Nahira), Communication Science students (Ilham Dyas N and Wachidah Nur H). Also attending today’s activity was the Principal of SMP Muhammadiyah 7, Supriyadi, S.Pd., M.Pd. accompanied by the Counseling Guidance Team, the UKS Team, and the Student Affairs Team, as well as prospective peer counselors from grades 7 and 8 who had gone through a previous selection process. After the event, the agenda continued with the formation of the management of the Youth Reproductive Health Information Center of SMP Muhammadiyah 7 Yogyakarta. After that, the formation of a communication forum for peer counselors and PIKR coaches and directors accompanied by the Yogyakarta Pro HandiniUnisa Team. The purpose of this PKM has 3 objectives:

1) To synergize government programs to reduce and prevent early marriage rates starting from the educational environment.

2) Establishing an Information Center for Adolescent Reproductive Health (PIKR-R) as an effort to prevent early marriage at SMP Muhammadiyah 7 Yogyakarta.

3) Increase students’ knowledge about the concept of adolescent reproductive health.

The focus of this PKM program is the application of Health Technology Assessment through the establishment of an adolescent reproductive health information center in an effort to prevent early marriage at SMP Muhammadiyah 7 Yogyakarta by involving interprofessional students. This PKM program supports 3 of the 8 Main Performance Indicators of Higher Education by involving students from S1 Midwife, S1 Psychology, and S1 Communication Science study programs. The three KPIs include lecturers being able to do activities outside the campus, students gaining experience outside the campus and the application of lecturer research results can be utilized by the community, especially at SMP Muhammadiyah 7 Yogyakarta.

Calon Mahasiswa 2

Aisyiyah University (UNISA) Yogyakarta held the first stage of selection of new students for the Faculty of Medicine (FK) through Computer Based Test (CBT) on Tuesday (20/8). A total of 118 participants enthusiastically participated in the exam which was divided into two buildings, namely the Siti Walidah building and the Siti Bariyah building.

The CBT exam included Academic Potential Test (TPA) and Natural Sciences (IPA). Those who pass the first stage of the test will proceed to the second stage of the psychological test and interview. The tight competition can be seen from the careful preparation made by the participants before entering the exam room, this happens because of the limited quota.

Vice Rector IV of UNISA Yogyakarta, M. Ali Imron, M.Fis, expressed his admiration for the enthusiasm of the participants. “We really appreciate the fighting spirit of the prospective students. The large number of participants shows the high interest of the community to join FK UNISA Yogyakarta,” he said.

Dr. Imron also explained that out of 118 participants, only 50 people will be accepted as new FK students. This shows the high selectivity in the admission process at FK UNISA Yogyakarta.

UNISA Yogyakarta as a campus with a focus on the health sector, continues to strive to produce quality graduates who are ready to answer the challenges in the world of health. With strict selection, it is expected that the accepted students will become the next generation who are able to make a positive contribution to society.
