Abstract

The number of elderly people in Indonesia is estimated to reach 29 million in 2020. The ageing process is usually followed by poor health which has been associated with risk of severe cognitive impairment. However, there is a limited training on older people’s health and cognitive impairment. Thus, programmes emphasise on trainings for health cadres, health workers and physicians are encouraged to improve older persons’ health. Additionally, health conditions of older persons have a relationship with cognitive impairment. There was 39% (thirty nine percent) of the elderly who experienced cognitive impairment in several cities and villages in Indonesia. Therefore, this study was aimed to provide training to develop and improve the ability of doctors, health workers and health cadres in conducting counseling for other cadres and health workers on HVLT (Hopkins Verbal Learning Test) and MMSE (Mini Mental State Examination) instruments to measure the cognitive status of elderly people. The method was PRA in relation with the definition of community development as the employment of community to address the needs and empower groups of people. PRA was also employed together with HVLT, MMSE and a training module. Participants were health cadres, public health workers and physicians. The results of training program showed that in three months, 61% of 108 cadres showed cognitive improvement and 39% of them needed remedial. Training feed back assessment showed that 81% up to 90% cadres performas was good to excellent. 94% of 36 health workers showed cognitive improvement. Behavioral assessment showed 100% of respondents was cooperated and could share their opinions. The study concluded that a training program might be potential for cognitive improvement and might be potential for the readiness of elderly people, cadres, health workers, and physicians to support elderly health care system in Depok City

Abstract

For most community-engagement in the universities, the beneficiary self-help impact have been disregarded. In fact, the ‘Self-help’ creation in the beneficiary community is the CO-CD prindiple, and this principle has been hardly adopted by the universities. This research goal was a profile of UT community-engagement managerial performance in 2012. The critical issues of this research were to respond Whether the UT community-engagement management had been executed properly? and Whether UT community-engagement had been capable of giving positive impacts on the beneficiary communities? This research-design covered 2 clusters, the first was to do with the managerial performance issues; the second encompassed the impacts on the beneficary communities. The method used was a Survey, and the data collection were Purposive Judgment Sampling for selecting the communities, and ‘Census’ for the related stakeholders. The data analysis were a combination between The Performence Analysis and The Context-Input-Process-Product, and the substantive analysis was CO-CD theory. The research findings were: 1) 64% as less-credible for the UT quantitative achievement, and far from a good-stage on the qualitative targeting. The major “Gap” was due to the absent of ‘CO-CD base’ on the UT community-engagement grand-policy. 2) showing in a good-mode in short term of the UT intervention impacts. However, ‘Self-help’ creation in the beneficiary community could not be achieved. The conclusion, there was no direct-corelation between the weak-managerial-performance and the relatively good-impact on its beneficiary community. Nonetheless, ‘CO-CD’ principles are urgently required to be adopted to avoid inefficiency and ineffectivity.

Abstract

Communication plays an important role in spreading idea. This paper describes the important role of visual communication in our community engagement activity that has been done in 2017, particularly in signage and the power to difuse information of Pico Hydro technology within Batu Roto village, Bengkulu Province, Indonesia. The community engagement itself is based on multidiscipline point of view specifically communication and engineering. Pico Hydro is commonly used worldwide to generate electricity in rural area, thus it is very useful for rural electrification. We conducted research to fullfill the needs of our plan in the community engagement and used communication development theory to support the outcome of this program. Communication development theory has focus on disemination of innovation. The method of this study is desk research such as the psychology of colour and typography. The paper argues that the application of Pico Hydro technology would have more impact on the people of Batu Roto village if it is combines with the social science method of communication development through signage. The information that lies in the signage hopefully can spread the idea of practicing pico hydro in many houses in the Batu Roto village so it can solve the problem of lack electricity in the Bengkulu Province.

Abstract

In a developing country such as the Philippines, where call for change is relentless, the inclusive participation of the citizens has become vital. In 2012, the Aquino Administration launched the Bottom-up Budgeting (BUB) Program to bolster inclusive growth, grassroots empowerment, and good governance at the local level. In Cagayan de Oro City (CdeO), BUB sought to increase citizens’ access to local service delivery with a demand-driven budget planning process and to strengthen government accountability in local public service provision (Openbub.gov, 2012). Using the Most Significant Change (MSC) approach, this study examined the dynamics of Civil Society Organizations’ participation in BUB-funded projects that have helped the Local Government Unit (LGU) develop a more progressive perspective in governance and its replicability in other areas. There has been formal recognition by the LGU of the valuable contributions of CSOs to the City’s growth, in the form of strengthened commitment towards poverty alleviation, productive partnerships, and the establishment of the City CSO Affairs Office. The interplay of the CSOs, government stakeholders, and private institutions in the City remains relevant. BUB has been anchored on strong community involvement, open government, and people’s multifaceted agenda for the City, even in the face of the Duterte administration’s plan to replace BUB with a relatively similar system, the Assistance to Disadvantaged Municipalities Program (ADMP). Once institutionalized in the local bureaucracy, civil society participation will continue to keep alight the torch of cooperation in building the fourth metropolis in the country, even as we are buffeted by winds of uncertainty brought about by social and political challenges.

Abstract

Globalization has a profound impact on the higher education institutions to build graduates capable to work and compete in the fourth industrial revolution. The Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) region is no exception to this movement. The students graduated from overseas gain a global exposure through intercultural competencies in the diverse and multicultural environment. However, the ratio of the immobile students is very high who are in need to be skilled with global competencies such as intercultural communication, knowledge, and awareness about diverse cultures, and understanding of international and global challenges. Internationalization at home is considering an apt solution for such challenges but, unfortunately, neglected by higher education institutions (HEIs) administration and policymakers in ASEAN due to the incomprehension regarding potential benefits linked with this change. The aim of this proposed project is to identify and operationalize the solutions for the deficiency of global and international competencies among the immobile students in ASEAN countries. Through involving professionals from diverse culture and backgrounds, and by conducting information sharing activities on internationalization at home (IaH) i.e. workshops, symposiums, and training, it is expected that this project will bring a societal change through signifying the need of internationalization at home. The findings of the project would be highly significant for HEIs administration, education ministries, and corporate professionals to achieve the workforce demands such as global graduates capable to move efficiently in the rapidly changing global markets.

Abstract

Western Champa people are part of Cambodian and they moved to Cambodia because of the Vietnamese began to build their strength and suppress them to the neighborhood country. Although their kingdom were originally in Vietnam and some of Champa people/Eastern Champa still live and thrive there, and some of them were recorded to speak Austronesian language. Therefore their language is slightly similar to Bahasa Indonesia and both languages are categorized as Malayo-Chamic. Two similarities of these languages that will be further discussed in this research are the words boh [b?h] and talai [t?la?] for buah [buwah] and tali [t?li] that means “fruit” and “rope” respectively. Although the sound appears to be the same as bahasa Indonesia, the categorizations using these words are uniquely different. The word chim [t??m] is also the object of research discussion because of its unique use for categorizing birds and insects. This research is aimed to explore the uniqueness of bahasa Cham in categorizing animal, vegetables and fruits, and things and try to discover the reason behind those categorizations that are triggered mostly by metonymy. The method of this research is participant observation and interview while teaching Bahasa Indonesia for four months in Cambodia for BIPA program.

Abstract

A large number of geological studies have shown that most of the Asian regions are prone to earthquake risks, and this is particularly significant in SE Asia. The tectonics of this region allow the geological investigators to argue for severe vulnerability to major and devastating earthquakes in the near future. This remind us of the devastations of Nepal in 2015, of Japan in 2011, and significant destruction of life and property at Acehnese and Thai coasts in 2004, and of Kashmir and New Orleans in 2005. Such example of destructions could be minimized to a greater extent if proper scientific and administrative framework is established. This was surely lacking in most of the above examples. And previous studies have suggested that scientists and administrative authorities should work together, and map the actual vulnerabilities on ground, and simultaneously educate people about the probable causes of earthquakes and how to minimize the destruction. Here we further show that nations with a turbulence political past, and an ongoing unstable political problem are more likely to score less on securing its people from disasters. And this score can significantly deteriorate if a nation does not work on eradication of corruption. Because corruption can make monsters out of ordinary disasters. We further show that South and South East Asian region are relatively young nations that are still in post-colonial period, and are largely involved in strengthening of their economies, and cleaning of the post-colonial problems. The increasing values of gross domestic product (GPD) per capita and a decent rise in literacy rates are a good news to win battle with disasters, however, these nations have to work really hard to eradicate corruption, and spend more on scientific research and awareness about earthquake disasters.

Abstract

Climate variability and change that affect extreme weather events has resulted long dry season and drought in Indonesia. Farmers become a vulnerable group since drought has damaged rice fields and as consequence losing their income. Therefore, rice farmers’ livelihood resilience needs to be enhanced in order to cope with those impacts. Crop insurance as financial capital could contribute to famers’ income stability from drought. Moreover, self-organization helps the farmers to understand agricultural risks and increase their adaptive capacity in times of extreme weather events. Accordingly, this paper investigate the impact of drought on rice production and farmers’ income, analyze the benefits of crop insurance and the support of self-organization to enhance livelihood resilience with a case of Kapetakan Sub-district in Cirebon Regency, Indonesia. The study employed mixed-methods by combining qualitative and quantitative data based on official data from government, in-depth interview, and literature review. The study reveals drought, for instance El Nino’s drought in 2015, has resulted in lower rice production and farmers’ income compared to 2014. Crop insurance could increase farmers’ income as compensation due to drought, nonetheless, there have been many farmers who do not have crop insurance yet. Moreover, self-organization related to the network capacity of farmers tends to be limited within farmer groups at village level. The government or other stakeholders should assist to expand the network of farmers in order to interact and learn with other organizations outside the region. Thus, knowledge and skills of farmers which inlude related to benefits of crop insurance and how to manage it will increase in order to choose adaptation option. This condition will contribute to enhance livelihood resilience of farmers to recover from extreme weather events.
