Not Just Talk, They Work!
Participants’ Presentation
on Local Exposure Program
 
 
Holiday is always be awaited by students, because they can relax, refresh their mind after their study during semester. There are some students who work as part-time workers or spending holiday in their home town. Stube-HEMAT Yogyakarta through Local Exposure Program provides opportunities for students who will return to their home town, by designing some activities that are beneficial for the community where they are from. This program will help them to open networks, grow their concern for their local region, manage their time to do job orientation after completing their study in Yogyakarta, and able to map their region's potencies and weakness.
 
Three students who participated Local Exposure Program in 2015 are Selsius Immanuel Malailo (an STPMD APMD student, majoring in Public Administration), Wilton Paskalis Dominggus Ama (an INSTIPER student, majoring in forestry), and Yoviani Minarti Rauf (a UST student, majoring in mathematics).
 
Selsius Immanuel Malailo, commonly called Nuel, comes from Air Kenari village, Teluk Mutiara district, Alor regency, East Nusa Tenggara. After completing the local exposure program, Nuel presented his findings on July 27, 2015. Based on his study, he was interested in examining public participation in the process of village rule-making in his village. From interviews done with the village officials and the local community, he concluded that the public has been directly and actively involved in every process through meeting organized by the village officials. But there was a small part of people that cannot be directly involved because of their daily activities.
 
 
In this case, he suggests: first, to make a meeting forum to accomodate people’s aspiration; second, to establish an institution to manage water usage for village and third, to manage the data of social aid and people who receive it.

He hoped that with the appropriate selection of host plant in cultivation of sandalwood, the proliferation of Sandalwood tree will increasing. The result showed that the sandalwood seedlings planted with Purslane as host plant will grow faster than the others, such as leucaena, indigofera and agathi.
 
 
Moreover, Wilton also held socialization on planting sandalwood to students in high school and vocational school around Waingapu. There are six schools as the location for planting Sandalwood which held during May 14 – 19, 2015.
 



 
Yoviani Minarti Rauf, commonly called Atik, comes from West Manggarai, East Nusa Tenggara. She presented the results of her Local Exposure Program on September 22, 2015. She was concerned on the lack of public awareness for healthy living and protecting environment. When she returned home, she held a research and socialization of importance of clean and healthy life. The observation done by Atik showed that there were just 7 houses have toilets of 20 families in the village where she lived.
 
 
Her approach to the village head for health socialization got positive responses. The head made a meeting and asked her to be the facilitator. She also suggested the people for one commitment to hold a social gathering to build toilets in Golo Pongkor village. In addition, Atik also invited elementary school-age children to learn together about school, healthy lifestyle, attitude and how to communicate to others and how to create a sense of mutual respect. On Sunday, she allocated her time to accompany children and to teach Sunday school about clean and healthy lifestyle at Catholic Church ‘Kerahiman Ilahi’, in Sok Rutung village.
