UNDIP Deployed a Disaster Response Thematic Community Service Team to Cianjur

The Institute of Research and Community Service (LPPM) of Diponegoro University held an activity for the Deployment of the Undip Disaster Response Thematic Community Service Team (KKNT) to Cianjur, on Tuesday (17/1) at the Seminar Room, 4th floor of the ICT Building, Undip Tembalang Campus. In his remarks, Undip Rector, Prof. Dr. Yos Johan Utama, S.H, M.Hum., said that this KKNT opportunity was a means to hone students’ inner souls as future leaders to feel empathy and do good to others.

“In Cianjur we will be sharpened mentally to educate us to become uswatun khasanah and to be people who like to give alms. Let’s strengthen our brothers and sisters affected by the disaster. Loving and caring for others is a form of delicacy, so our arrogant side as humans is gone. Be careful, take care of your health, straighten your intentions so you don’t complain easily. As Undip students, give a good impression to the community and always coordinate with related parties,” said Prof. Yos.

On the same occasion, Prof. Dr. Jamari, S.T., M.T. as Chair of LPPM conveyed about the recruitment process for prospective participants. There were 76 students who registered as potential participants for this KKNT, of which 53 students passed the administrative selection. The next selection stage is the interview test. At this stage, only 35 students passed. In the last stage, namely the medical test, there were 28 students who passed to take part in the KKN debriefing. At this debriefing stage, P2KKN, for disciplinary reasons, only finally passed 27 students who were ready to go to Cianjur. The KKN debriefing was carried out on Thursday, January 12, 2023 with inviting resource persons from the BPBD Central Java, the Head of Cibereum Village, Cugenang District, Cianjur and SIGAP Volunteers.

In this KKNT, 6 lecturers were involved, namely Kurniawan Teguh Martono., S.T., M.T. (Head of P2KKN), Satriyo Adhy., S.Si., M.T., Dr. Ir. Cahya Setya Utama., S.Pt., M.Si., IPM., Triyono., S.H., M.Kn., Adnan Fauzi., S.T., M.Kom, and Dr. Adi Nugroho, M.Si. The location for the implementation of the Disaster Response Thematic Community Service is Cibereum Village, Cugenang District, Cianjur Regency. KKNT activities will last for 1 (one) full month from January 18, 2023 to February 19, 2023.

Present at this activity were Vice Rector I, Prof. Faisal, S.E., M.Si., Ph.D.; Deputy Head of Research Field of LPPM, Prof. Dr. Agus Subagio, S.Si., M.Si.; Deputy Head of Services of LPPM, Prof. Dr. Rahayu, S.H., M.Hum., and Secretary of P2KKN, Satriyo Adhy., S.Si. M.T.

KKN is one of the courses that aims to provide community service and empowerment experience to students, form student empathy and concern for the problems faced by the community, provide complementary education to students and help community empowerment. From this experience, it will produce successful graduates who are able to live up to the complex problems faced by society and learn to solve problems in a pragmatic and interdisciplinary way. It will also develop interdisciplinary and inter-institutional collaboration, and instill personality values, which include Nationalism and Pancasila Spirit, tenacity based on work ethic and responsibility, as well as independence, leadership, and entrepreneurship.
