KOPHI PANAS 1: For Better Health

Now, I want to tell you about my previous activities. Regarding the social projects of the organization that I follow. Yes, I am a member of KOPHI. In division of research and development. Previously, KOPHI is a youth organization engaged in the environment. KOPHI can be a platform for young people who want to be part of the solution to the problem of climate change so that they can move to carry out a collective and sustained action for the creation of a sustainable environment.

So, a few weeks ago, at March 28, 2015 ago, KOPHI held an event called KOPHI PANAS (KOPHI Peduli Anak dengan Edukasi dan Sanitasi) the first in 2015. This activity is very interesting. Because in this activity we taught the importance of protecting the environment and sanitation hygiene which starts from yourself.

KOPHI PANAS 1 held in slum area in Karang Pola which collaborated with TIS.

In this activity, we taught children (re: in elementary school) about the importance of saving water, maintaining nails cleanliness by cutting regularly, properly hand washing, and brushing teeth correctly. And we taught children how to recycle plastic bottles becoming a pencil box. In order to becoming more valuable.

This event run quite smoothly. Although children were not so orderly. Because they were so enthusiastic in participating in this activity.

Here were some of the results of the documentation.

It was when we taught them how to cut nails properly. If they couldn't do it properly, we would cut their nails.

It was when we taught them how to make pencil boxes from bottles. Look at that! How enthusiastic they were! 

And... This was the result!! Look! How cute their pencil boxes are. They were so creative in designing their own pencil boxes.

Actually I was kind of sad when we saw the sanitary conditions around the slum area. The ground was not directly the soil, but a pile of garbage that has been solidified. So, you couldn't imagine how it would be going when heavy rains flushed the area. Of course it would be flooding. But, the flood which came to be accompanied by mud and debris.

Despite that, children who were in the slum area remained enthusiastic to learn and followed our activities through ending.

That was activity of KOPHI Panas 1. Hopefully, what we taught them will remain attached and practice every day. So it would be useful.

Thank You.. J
