Abstract

China’s Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) is a diversification of economic, diplomatic, and geopolitical activities, previously known as the “New Silk Road”, which was later changed to “One Belt and One Road”. BRI is one of the Chinese Government’s most ambitious foreign and economic policies. China uses this route to expand its influence and gain attention in destinations in commodities, energy, transportation, and others in the Middle East & North Africa (MENA) countries. This paper uses descriptive qualitative methods to explore various unique phenomena from the Health Silk Road against Vaccination in MENA countries. As a result, 17 countries have become members of the BRI and have cooperated with China, and at this time of the COVID-19 pandemic crisis, most MENA countries are using vaccine diplomacy from China to overcome their crisis. This situation is used for China to carry out “Mask Diplomacy” to expand its influence in MENA countries. This proves to be effective for China in improving and creating more significant opportunities to emerge as a “hero” in providing health services to developing countries while increasing its presence in the world.

Abstract

The global Covid-19 pandemic has not only raised health issues which have become a big problem, but it has also created complex problems for the international community,such as health, economic unproductivity, and changing patterns of social interaction. Another significant problem that also emerges is an environmental issue, referring to the increasing number of used medical mask waste coming from societies in order to anticipate the virus. This problem is getting more serious as medical mask waste contains plastic waste, where its decomposition takes decades. In order to provide a solution to the increasing waste of used masks, the involvement of the youth is necessary because young people have many positive capacities, compared to others. Therefore, Department of International Relations, Universitas Airlangga establishes apartnership with Madrasah Aliyah Al Huda and Karang Taruna Suka Karya, in the Sukerejo Village, Bangorejo District, Banyuwangi Regency, in a hybrid way. This aims to increase the awareness among youth to manage the waste of used mask waste in more proper procedures, so it will not cause negative impact to the environment.
