When human have conflicts with nature, the result is actualy just misery for themselves. It is important to know and to understand as soon as possible. After conducting the first event in Sanggar Anak Alam School, an environment-lover students group from various universities continued their actions to spread awareness so that people will care about environment, even it is started since elementary school age.

 

 

 

Fully determined, in the range of two months (April – May 2015), this students group are doing environmental education in nine elementary schools and one orphanage, consists of Elementary School of Sukowaten Baru, Elementary School of Lempuyangan, Elementary School of Balirejo, Elementary School of Joannes Bosco, Salvation Army orphanage, Elementary School of Babarsari, Elementary School of Muhammadiyah Karangbendo, Elementary School of Juru Gentong and and Elementary School of Canisius Sorowajan.

 

 

 

In each place, they sprinkled awareness of the importance of efforts to preserve environment. By doing simple things, such as decorating dustbin, having a discussion about nature and environment and cleaning up the school yard, already touched and encouraged children to do those things enthusiastically. "Why didn’t you like to contact with garbage?," a student asked the children. Innocently they replied, "The garbage is stink! Disgusted!" That is the reality for many people who do not understand, in fact, garbage can be processed and bring revenue for the people who manage it, otherwise, disaster will come when people do not care about it.

 

 

 

Hopefully, the smile and spirit of these children will be the starting point of their concern to environment and nature management.***

Understanding The Conflict Management
with Stube-HEMAT
Part of a Basic Training of Student Leadership (LDKM) FKIP
University of Sarjanawiyata Tamansiswa Yogyakarta
Youth Center, Sleman, May 2, 2015
 



The dynamics society and social change always happen continuously and it drives towards compromises or negotiations to conflict. Students as the next generation must understand the theory of conflict and how to manage conflicts in good area. LDKM FKIP UST with a theme "Building the Progression of Young Dewantara to Achieve Ketamansiswaan-Based Leadership” held on Friday - Sunday, May 1 – 3, 2015 at Youth Center, Tlogoadi, Sleman, Yogyakarta. A session that revealed Management Conflicts was facilitated by Ariani Narwastujati, S.Pd., SS, M.Pd., the executive director of Stube-HEMAT.
 
 
The LDKM training was attended by 73 participants, from 2nd and 4th semester students of FKIP Sarjanawiyata Tamansiswa University. They were equipped with the theory of conflict, trigers and conflict management. Even mentioned that conflict is the beginning of conscience or conflict is the beginning of an awareness to acquire rights and equal treatment before the law, such as, to get job, education, health care and so on.
 


 

Riswan Jaya, the chairman of the Student Assembly (MM) FKIP said, "LDKM is carried out in a hope to improve the quality and motivation of students both in academic and non-academic achievement. As future leaders, students are trained to be able to manage conflict and push change in society. An Organization became an important forum for students to proceed towards change, both personal and social context".
 
Specifically, Ariani discussed conflict resolution model of Thomas-Kilmann that focuses on 1) the personal needs and desires and 2) focus on the needs of others and a good relationship. These two approaches produce five types of conflict resolution namely: avoiding conflicts, accepting conflict, compromising conflict, competing and collaborating. Based on these five types, collaboration is considered the most ideal type because its priority is a 'win-win solution' for both sides.
 
The steps to manage conflict peacefully are: respect the rights of others to disagree, express concern, express goals and share interests, open to different opinions, listen carefully to all opinions, understand the major issues that happened, think about the consequences that may happen, think of alternative solutions, offering some compromise and negotiate a fair agreement.
 
The participants were enthusiastic to join the discussion and express their thoughts about the conflict. "I got a lot of knowledge about leadership and finding friends having leader character in various thought and opinion", said Ni Putu SY Darsani, a participant, a fourth semester student majoring in Physical Education.
 

 

Let’s learn how to be an ideal leader to manage conflict! (TRU)
