Abstract

ABSTRACTProgress in achieving gender equality and empowering women in Indonesia has been too slow and fragmented. The media can provide a voice and a platform for placing women's role issues on the development agenda. As in the education, health, economic, labor, and political sectors. However, in reality, there is a significant gender gap in mainstream media companies so that women are not represented optimally and steps to improve gender equality are limited. Alternative media is very possible to take a role in explaining issues of gender equality and women's empowerment. Because this type of media can connect various sectors, including trade unions, social movements, organizations and various elements of society. Researchers use the concept of gender and communication development, Standpoint theory, and alternative media. The approach used in this study is literature review research methodology. The results of this study explain that journalists in alternative media consider gender awareness and sensitivity important in themselves to be able to protect and defend women's interests. In fact, alternative media provide wide opportunities for journalists to raise strategic issues of equality and women's empowerment. Keywords: Alternative, Empowerment, Journalists, Media, Women

Based on the findings, the study concludes that campaign posters are veritable tools which have the propensity to encode socio-cultural happenings, the mindset, and intention of politicians.

Abstract

Eating and drinking form part of the daily activities of the Nzema. This paper investigates metaphorical extensions associated with the consumption verbs di "˜to eat' and no "˜to drink' in Nzema (Kwa, Bia). It seeks to explore domains in which the verbs are utilised metaphorically to relay everyday concepts and cognitive processes in the Nzema language. Data for the study comprise conversations collected from four respondents. The paper first presents a brief discussion on the components that comprise the central meanings of the verbs. The verbs and their metaphorical extensions are discussed under two major themes: Agent-oriented extensions and patient-oriented extensions. Under agent-oriented extensions, figurative usages that are based on the internalization of food as well as extensions based on the sensation of the agent undergoing the event are discussed. Extensions derived from the destruction of food during the process of consumption is discussed under the patient-oriented. The paper finds that in Nzema, the verb di "˜to eat' is utilised metaphorically to convey ideas such as to arbitrate, seduce, take oath, misappropriate among others. The verb no "˜to drink' conveys ideas such as to inhale or smoke, and to sponge. Remarkably, some metaphorical extensions of consumption verbs that are not reported in other African languages, such as extensions of eat for squabbling, for taking oath, for insinuating, for witnessing and for hunting, and the extensions of drink for sponging are present in Nzema.

Abstract

Political posters play a significant role in shaping voter perceptions and behaviors in Bangladesh, employing visual elements such as color, design, and symbolism to effectively communicate messages and resonate emotionally with diverse electorate groups. This study investigates the influence of these posters on voter behavior toward political candidates and parties, drawing on established theoretical frameworks like the Elaboration Likelihood Model (ELM). Through a survey-based approach, our findings reveal that posters exert substantial influence, with a majority of respondents acknowledging their role in shaping political opinions. Emotional appeals embedded in posters are shown to sway voter decisions, emphasizing the posters' effectiveness in engaging voters through both central and peripheral routes of persuasion. Moreover, the study highlights posters' enduring impact beyond elections, contributing to sustained political attitudes and fostering democratic engagement in Bangladesh's socio-political landscape. By aligning with existing literature on visual persuasion and political communication, this research underscores the critical role of posters as powerful tools in influencing public opinion and promoting civic participation.   Keywords: political poster, persuasion, voter behavior, Bangladesh, civic participation

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the correlation between WhatsApp usage and the religiosity level of PP Jagad Alif santri, as well as the factors influencing this correlation. A correlational quantitative approach was used to measure the relationship between these two variables. A sample of 58 individuals was selected using simple random sampling from a population of 68 santri at PP Jagad Alif, calculated with the Slovin formula. Data were collected through surveys using the SMUI instrument for WhatsApp and the CRS instrument for religiosity, with each instrument demonstrating a validity of 0.9 Pearson's r and reliability scores of 0.996 and 0.995 Cronbach's α, respectively. Data analysis techniques included Pearson correlation and simple linear regression to test the hypothesis. The results showed a positive correlation of 0.349 with a p-value of 0.004, and the contribution of the social media variable to religiosity was 12.2%. These findings indicate that the correlation between social media usage and the religiosity level of PP Jagad Alif santri is weak.

Abstract

The gender-based stunting prevention acceleration program in Bojonegoro Regency still faces challenges. Therefore, this study aims to analyze the communication strategy for accelerating stunting prevention through a gender perspective. A descriptive method with a qualitative approach was used in the study, conducted in three sub-districts (Kapas, Balen, and Gondang) from January to December 2023. Primary data were collected through in-depth interviews with 23 informants from various related agencies. Data analysis utilized source triangulation, technique triangulation, and GAP analysis. The results show that the stunting prevention acceleration program by the Bojonegoro Regency Government with a gender approach has been planned specifically and sensitively. However, only the Women's Empowerment, Child Protection, and Family Planning Agency have a gender-friendly program with balanced participation. Despite using detailed communication design through intrapersonal approaches, public communication, digital media, and the 8-convergence communication strategy design, the program still has gender participation gaps in access and decision-making.
