Abstract

Background: The concept of sustainability can be applied to the management of free-roaming cat populations by humans in their environment. An increasing and uncontrolled free-roaming cat population can create problems for humans, the environment and the cats themselves. One of the efforts to manage the local cat population is carried out by the Universitas Indonesia Cares About Animals/Universitas Indonesia Peduli Hewan (UIPH) community in an urban campus environment. Such management is not necessarily in line with the concept of sustainability because it can be influenced by local community and environmental factors about which there is not much knowledge yet. Methods: Therefore, research is needed to find out more about the condition of free-roaming cats, the motivation and the role of UIPH in the UI Depok campus. A qualitative approach with in-depth interviews, direct observation and literature study is used. Findings: The results show that UIPH is a community of members from lecturers, staff and students who have concern for the survival of cats. UIPH activities include Feeding, Rescue, Fostering, Adoption and Education which are also assisted by volunteers, donations and co-sponsor collaborations. Activities by UIPH contribute to the condition of free-roaming cats that can roam freely on campus with relatively fat and healthy bodies. Conclusion: In its process, UIPH also faces problems and challenges related to the natural, social or man-made environment. But so far, they have been able to face them and carry out their routine activities. Membership, connections and ongoing programs have become an opportunity to develop community activities and regenerate wild animal awareness on campus. Novelty/Originality of this article: This study highlights the unique role of the UIPH community in managing free-roaming cat populations on an urban campus, contributing to the health and well-being of the animals. It also emphasizes the influence of local environmental and social factors in shaping sustainable wildlife management strategies.

Abstract

Background: Solid waste management plays a crucial role in ensuring sustainable tourism development. In Guwosari Tourism Village, the introduction of the integrated waste processing site (TPS 3R) Go Sari, initiated by Badan Usaha Milik Desa (BUM Desa) Guwosari Maju Sejahtera in 2019, has expanded its service area, aiming to cover 550 families by 2024. Despite its success, there are challenges related to the effectiveness of the waste management system in the village, particularly concerning waste incineration processes and the overall sustainability of the program. Methods: This study uses a literature review approach, collecting relevant data based on keywords such as Environmental Sustainability, Go-Sari, Guwosari Tourism Village, Incinerator, Municipal Solid Waste, and Waste Management Strategy. The qualitative descriptive data evaluation method allows for a thorough analysis of the existing solid waste management system at TPS 3R Go-Sari. Findings: The study identifies several issues in the solid waste management system at TPS 3R Go-Sari, including air pollution caused by smoke from incinerators during the burning of waste residues. Additionally, the accumulation of ash from incineration poses environmental concerns. Moreover, only about 20% of the village's total waste is processed at the facility, and the high cost of waste collection is a burden for the villagers. Conclusion: While TPS 3R Go-Sari has made strides in managing solid waste in Guwosari Tourism Village, it faces significant challenges such as air pollution, limited waste processing capacity, and high collection costs. The implementation of the Zero Waste concept shows potential but requires addressing these issues for better sustainability and community impact. Novelty/Originality of the Study: This study provides a unique examination of the practical challenges of applying the Zero Waste concept in a tourism village setting, focusing on the environmental and financial issues surrounding waste incineration and management. It also offers insights into the integration of sustainable waste practices in rural tourism areas.

Abstract

Background: Innovation is crucial for advancing businesses, organizations, and countries, especially amid rapid environmental changes and technological advancements. Universities, as key sources of innovation, must shift to include societal contributions. Despite progress, challenges in commercialization hinder the effective translation of research into marketable products. This study explores the driving factors of innovation at Universitas Indonesia, focusing on open culture and conscious innovation management in an environmental context. Methods: This study utilizes an embedded mixed-methods design, primarily focusing on quantitative research to analyze driving factors of innovation at Universitas Indonesia, employing descriptive analysis through SPSS software for data interpretation. Findings: This section analyzes the driving factors of the innovation process at the Universitas Indonesia, focusing on respondents' perceptions of collaboration, governance, communication, and financial motivation, highlighting areas for improvement. UI demonstrates high cooperation with the business sector but requires more dynamic regulations for effective collaboration. The Dimension of Conscious Innovation Management at UI demonstrates professionalism in innovation management; however, there are still challenges related to program regulations. Conclusion: Universitas Indonesia should enhance collaboration, establish structured remuneration, and allow flexible SOPs to foster sustainable innovation. Novelty/Originality of this article: This study uniquely investigates the interplay of cultural openness and conscious innovation management at Universitas Indonesia, offering practical recommendations to enhance commercialization and sustainability in the university's innovation processes.
