Abstract

The growing demand for open and distance education calls for a stronger focus on student well-being, particularly mental health. This study explores the mental health landscape at Universitas Terbuka (UT), Indonesia’s national open university, which serves a geographically dispersed and diverse student population. Employing qualitative methods, including in-depth interviews and focus group discussions (FGDs), this research aims to assess mental health needs, identify contributing stressors, and develop policy recommendations to strengthen mental health support in a distance learning context. The findings indicate that students experience anxiety, stress, and burnout, exacerbated by academic pressure, social isolation, and the absence of structured counselling services. To address these challenges, the study proposes a phased strategy: short-term awareness programs, medium-term pilot e-counselling initiatives, and long-term institutional development through a centralized mental health center. This study contributes to the field of education by offering a practical framework for integrating mental health support into distance learning environments at UT, with potential implications for similar institutions across the ASEAN region and beyond. Keywords: mental health, counselling, student, UT

Abstract

This study aims to identify the key actors and assess their roles in groundwater utilization and wastewater management in Pekalongan City. It is a qualitative study focused on the perspectives of community groups. Data were collected through snowball interviews involving several stakeholder groups, including local communities, managers of PAMSIMAS wells, business actors, and related associations or community organizations. The data were then analyzed using content analysis and stakeholder analysis. The results show that there are four categories of stakeholders involved in groundwater utilization and industrial wastewater management in Pekalongan City. These categories are government, community (local residents, business actors, and associations/community organizations), the private sector, and academia. Based on the analysis, the main actors in groundwater utilization and wastewater management in Pekalongan City are the government, business actors/PAMSIMAS well managers, and associations/community organizations. This study highlights the importance of cross-sectoral collaboration involving the collective efforts of these actors to support sustainable groundwater utilization and wastewater management in Pekalongan City. The findings can serve as input for the Pekalongan City Government in developing strategies for stakeholder participation to achieve such sustainability.

Abstract

Pariwisata petualangan memadukan keseruan dengan risiko terukur sehingga keselamatan dan kenyamanan menjadi unsur penting dalam pengelolaan layanan berkelanjutan. Penelitian ini bertujuan membandingkan perspektif pengemudi dan wisatawan mengenai keselamatan serta kenyamanan di Kali Pucung Jeep Adventure berdasarkan kompetensi pengemudi, kondisi medan, waktu dan jarak tempuh, serta kelayakan armada. Penelitian menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif di pangkalan operasional Desa Kemuning, Kecamatan Ngargoyoso. Data diperoleh melalui wawancara terhadap 37 informan yang dipilih secara purposif, terdiri atas 16 pengemudi jip dan 21 wisatawan. Data dianalisis menggunakan analisis konten kualitatif melalui kondensasi data, kategorisasi berdasarkan rute dan aspek penilaian, serta penafsiran lintas sektor. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan keselarasan kuat antara perspektif pengemudi dan wisatawan pada sebagian besar aspek. Pengemudi dinilai ramah, komunikatif, terampil, dan konsisten memberikan pengarahan keselamatan. Jalur satu arah dan rute evakuasi alternatif mampu mengurangi risiko operasional, sedangkan durasi perjalanan umumnya dinilai efisien dan nyaman. Armada dinilai bersih, stabil, serta dilengkapi roll bar dan sistem penggerak empat roda. Namun, terdapat dua kesenjangan operasional, yaitu sebagian wisatawan menilai durasi rute pendek terlalu singkat dan kotak P3K belum tersedia pada seluruh armada. Penelitian menyimpulkan bahwa keselamatan dan kenyamanan secara umum telah memuaskan, tetapi standardisasi P3K dan evaluasi durasi rute diperlukan untuk memperkuat manajemen risiko yang inklusif dan berkelanjutan.
