Abstract

Across the world urban dwellers are facing increasing risks of exposure to noise pollution. The World Health Organization (WHO) described noise pollution as an underestimated threat that can cause various health problems to humans and wildlife. In Nigeria, urban areas are experiencing increasing levels of noise pollution. In this study, a combination of low-cost noise sensors and GIS modelling were used to conduct a preliminary investigation of the spatiotemporal patterns of noise pollution in a prominent urban area in Nigeria. This was to ascertain whether residents are exposed to dangerous noise levels that could affect their health as well as to demonstrate the potentials of deploying network of sensors for real-time monitoring of noise pollution in urban areas of developing countries. We observed noise levels at 5 seconds intervals, over a period of 24 hours, at different strategic locations (e.g. Achara Layout, Abakpa, and Independence Layout) across the city. Using GIS analytics techniques, data obtained from field were used to produce noise maps of the city. We found that night-time noise levels ranged between 32 and 35dBA, which are below recommended limits by the Nigerian government and WHO. Daytime noise levels ranged between 44 and 66dBA, slightly exceeding recommended limits. This contradicts general perceptions that noise levels in the city are dangerously high. This study has given the first insight into the spatiotemporal patterns of noise levels across Enugu Metropolis. It is the first time a spatiotemporal study of noise pollution was conducted in the city, revealing noise footprints of various parts of the city.

Abstract

Plastic has been an essential part of our daily life. However, the increasing plastic consumption has led to an increasing land and water contamination by said plastics. The Indonesian government has set five actions on managing marine plastic debris, one of them is by improving the plastic recycling system. Multilayer plastic was identified as a challenge to the plastic waste recycling. This is because there are differences in properties, such as melting point, which will cause difficulty in mechanical recycling. This study aims to create a mapping of available options to solve problems of low value plastic (LVP) waste in Indonesia and to assess the readiness level of key aspects in implementing the available options. Interviews was done with twelve experts on the field of material or energy recovery from plastic waste, especially LVP, to find the available technology options which include but not limited to their primary features, readiness status and feasibility, and potential market size. The evaluation was based on a set of criteria in technology, environment, social, and economy viewpoints. Three top low hanging options are conversion to plastic lumber, refuse derived fuel (RDF) production, and conversion to plastic products. All the three processes have mature technology and local availability. The challenges include a good branding and marketing strategy to expand market, endorsement, and recognition from government, including recycle content standard and more cost-effective collection. Further investigation has to be done for RDF utilization in industrial boilers. More promotion and introduction of recycled products have to be performed in order to create market to allow a sustainable recycling industry.

Abstract

This article considered basic organizational aspects of general accounting of pension system in sustainable development condition of Republic of Tajikistan. Theoretical bases of pension system accounting are analysed. The key aspects of research work are based in the regulations confirmed on the “Instruction about general accounting organization and recording pension operations in accounting”. The problems of transformation of accounting and the pension system are pushing scientists to pay attention to the issues of organizing pension accounting. This scientific article is based on the research regarding to the theme of my candidate dissertation on theme: “Features of development and modernization of social insurance system in the national economy of Tajikistan”. This study should bring some clarity to the process of accounting for pension provision in Tajikistan in the context of sustainable development. To determine the general accounting organization features in the direction of the pension system, methods of analysis of definitions were used and the most frequently used accounting accounts were grouped. As a result of research work and studies of regulatory legal acts on accounting for pension provision, accounting entries were determined in accordance with international accounting standards in the context of sustainable development of Tajikistan. The theoretical foundations of accounting are determined, and the most used definitions of the investigated sphere are highlighted. In conclusion, it should be noted that to effectively organize the accounting of pensions, it is proposed to constantly improve the qualifications of accounting employees not only in the republic, but also in foreign countries that apply international accounting standards. Since the study of accounting from outside contributes to the correct organization and maintenance of modern pension accounting. The basic steps of social tax accounting in the context of sustainable development of Tajikistan are improved by author.

Abstract

Children need to play, either alone or with friends, especially in outdoors spaces, to benefits their growth and development. Many densely populated areas do not provide children's playgrounds due to the limited area and not planned from the start of development. As a result, children play in the remaining space around the residence, which can threaten the safety and comfort of children. It is essential to pay attention to the safety and comfort aspects of children. This paper aims to explain the spatial reach of children when playing outdoors and children's perceptions about their playing area. This research was conducted in Keluranan Kalianyar every day from Monday to Sunday, in the morning and afternoon. Conducted interviews with 347 children accompanied by one of their parents and studied literature. The study found that most of the children playing near home (about less than 40 meters and 40-100 meters from their home). Second, 64% of children believe that playing space is unsafe, and 69% believe that playing space is uncomfortable for all children. This study explains that although no play area meets the elements of safety and comfort, children can still play at a distance that is still affordable from their home. Thus, efforts are needed to enhance the safety and comfort of children's play spaces.

Abstract

Islamic education of Taman Pendidikan Al-Quran (TPA) is an Al-Quran Learning Center that gives informal religious education to guide children to know Islamic values from an early age. TPA Ikhlasul Machfudz was established since 2006 that, in addition to Al-Quran, the center also teaches children with English, Marawis (voices with strong religious elements) and Qasidah (lyrics that are related to Islamic values). However, since the COVID-19 pandemic occurred in 2020, the learning process has stopped completely due to the policy of learning from home. There are many obstacles to teach from home using online learning method. Teachers realized the importance of website and other digitization process to help for information sustainability and learning process. Websites are also important as a platform to document information and promote TPA Ikhlasul Machfudz to a wider audience. This community service activity was carried out by academicians who helped in several stages, namely website creation, website usage training, and website inauguration. All activities were carried out using online coordination. Data analysis was performed using qualitative method in coordination with key informant by observation, interviews, and documentation. With this website digitization, teachers and guardians of students found that this process is valuable and helpful for the learning progress during the pandemic. The center also further benefited because the website usage, at the same time, can be a place for documenting various activities and maintaining the information sustainability. The existence of this website expected to help facilitate the teaching and learning process in the future. Taman Pendidikan Al-Quran Ikhlasul Machfudz (TPA-IM) can also maintain the information sustainability as an informal community organization in Lenteng Agung, South Jakarta.

Abstract

Global Innovation, science and technology performance is one of the essential problems that Indonesian universities face. Currently, sciences and technology (IPTEK)’s partnership among university, government, industry, and Indonesia’s society have not been conducted optimally. This paper discusses the impact of the relationship between university’s science and technology global partnership, QS/world university ranking, university/industry research collaboration with sustainability knowledge-based economy (KBE) as well as suggesting some possible solutions for optimization. The investigation was followed by a cause-and-effect analysis that was gained from several secondary data and reports such as Global innovation Index (GII), UI Scholar, QS, THE, SINTA, ASEAN Benchmarking’s data during 2010 to 2020. These are gathered to calculate and analyse the correlation-determination (r & Kd), significance test (t-count and t-table), and moderating variables (MRA). Analysis data uses descriptive statistics and a simple regression technique. The results showed that QS university ranking and university/industry research collaboration as a moderating relationship of UI’s IPTEK global partnership have a simultaneously positive and significant effect on the sustainability of Indonesia's knowledge-based economy. Three of six hypotheses have showed very significant results, with numbers roughly above 85% up to 98%, H2: 88.5%, H3: 89.6%, 98.6% MRA of X2 against X3 respectively. In comparison with the two others, several are above 60%. These are X1 against X3:74.5% and X1 to X4: 67.5% respectively. The remaining one is X1 against X2: 25.7%, which examines the direct effects between independent and dependent variables without using the moderating variables. Hence, it is argued that contributions of a higher education institution to sustainability KBE could be determined by the level of their competitiveness on regional and global levels. This study may serve as motivation for universities particularly in Indonesia to strive with their existing resource capacities continuously. Hence, UI could serve as a role model to the other universities in Indonesia.

Abstract

Pandemic COVID-19 that is currently faced by all countries has changed the wheels of workers' lives in all sectors. Keeping work performance in good quality is needed to in improving company performance. One way that is considered important to maintain the performance of the workforce is by voluntary social support received from co-workers or what is called Organizational Citizenship Behaviour (OCB). This study examines the correlation o of job satisfaction and religiosity on OCB behaviour. Because while religious belief and the level of religiosity are an important part of a person's life, many studies have been conducted to test this., However, due to but the circumstances of the COVID-19 pandemic which divided workers into WFH and WFO, this has allowed organizations to make different regulations for organizational productivity. With the purposive sampling technique, the total number of respondents is 416 workers who live in Bogor, Depok, Tangerang, and Bekasi (Jakarta and West Java). Data were analysed using PLS-SEM (Partial Least Square-Structural Equation Model) with the software Smart PLS. This study does not prove the direct influence of religiosity on OCB’s employees. In addition, in the pandemic situation, which requires most of the employees to work with the Work from Home (WFH) system, it does not show a significant effect on the relationship of religiosity to OCB behaviour, while Work from Office (WFO) workers are proven to show more helping behaviour that influenced by the level of their religiosity. This research is expected to be an illustration of how important it is for increasing job satisfaction that will make the workers more aware and willing to take action to help co-workers during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Abstract

During the COVID-19 pandemic, the government had implemented a policy which changed face-to-face learning to distance learning. However, there is still a need for teachers to optimize the quality of students' education. This goal is in line with Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) number four, namely quality education. By getting a quality education, people can break the chain of poverty. Through education, inequality can be reduced, and people can be empowered to live more sustainably and healthily. The purpose of this research was to analyse students' coping strategies during distance learning. This research uses a quantitative approach with a survey method. The research was conducted in Jakarta from May to June 2021. The population was Universitas Negeri Jakarta students. The sample was selected using a cluster sampling technique of as many as 211 students. Data collection uses a coping strategy scale consisting of 39 items derived from the dimensions of problem-focused coping, emotional-focused coping, and seeking social support. The t-value of 0.110 with sig 0.913 > 0.05 shows no significant difference in average coping strategies between female and male respondents. The ANOVA revealed F-value of 0.329 with sig. 0.805 > 0.05, which means there is no significant difference in the average coping strategy of respondents based on birth order. The results of the analysis showed that the students' coping strategies were in the high category. Over time, students can adapt to the learning techniques used in the classroom. The problem-focused coping dimension has the highest average value, so this research concludes that students focus on dealing with the problem when faced with one. Students try to analyse the causes of the problems they face, plan steps to deal with problems, and make efforts to change the situation carefully. There is no difference in the average value of female and male students' coping strategies. Students are more dominant in using problem-focused coping as an effort to deal with stress when implementing distance learning. Students must be able to overcome their problems with appropriate coping strategies to achieve quality learning in education.

Abstract

Staying at home and taking care of the family full time was the desire of most female workers in the pre-pandemic period. After the Covid-19 pandemic, working from home has become necessary, bringing its problems and negative impacts. The shift from the pandemic period to the new order era does not necessarily eliminate the double burden of working women. Economic conditions that have not yet recovered, difficulties in finding household assistants, anxiety about leaving children at home without knowledge are new problems that arise when female workers returning to work. This study looks at the double burden faced by female workers when they are required to return to work after the pandemic in comparison to male workers. The method used is a mixed method by combining quantitative and qualitative designs. The results showed that 39.18% of respondents were ready to work again. 55,60% have received socialization regarding the new rules in the workplace after the pandemic. From the Rapid Assessment Procedure results, it was found that women were more worried about the condition of leaving behind a child in comparison to men. Women workers also hope that the workplace can provide proper and safe childcare facilities. Inequality in caring for children after this pandemic can affect the realization of the five SDGs goals. The government is expected to be sensitive and make policies related to these conditions by providing facilities that can support the performance of women workers.
