A workshop related to the problem of the Covid-19 pandemic which was held in mid-February 2021 encouraged the participants to share information and knowledge gained from the workshop with others. Two activities have been carried out, first was sharing with the Andalas Bumi Ayu Youth group that’s carried out by the church youth group and the second was sharing about the implementation of health protocols in the classroom environment and meeting in the village by the English learning group.
The church youth group shared their experiences and knowledge with the Andalas Youth group, a youth community in Dusun IV Bumi Ayu, Margasakti village. This group has a meeting once a month to discuss any plans related to youth. The discussion with Andalas youth was held at Hari Pujianto's residence (9/02/2021) with the members. They admitted the limited information about Covid-19 in rural areas. Furthermore, they also said that the movement of people in and out of the area is minimum so that even when people have flu and coughs during this pandemic, they wear no mask. For this reason, the meeting with church youths is expected to be able to encourage Andalas youth and the residents to pay more attention to the health protocol standards.
A surprising moment for the next activity related to understanding health problems, especially during this pandemic was proposed by M. Jauhari Fajri after reading the material and blog shared by Stube HEMAT. Even though he did not attend the first health issue workshop, he was interested to understand the important parts of this material and invited other speakers and participants to Margasakti village (11/03/2021). So far, M, Jauhari Fajri, has been active in the English community of village VII. This English learning group consists of teenagers and children. They are trying to understand the effects of Covid-19 if they are infected. So far they did not worry about it. Studying from home makes them miss face-to-face school.
This follow-up activity might seem simple, but it helped many people to understand the situation better during the pandemic, how to anticipate it, and how to grow awareness of the importance to be discipline implementing health protocols. Although small, but one should keep moving so that more and more people will understand the importance of health. ***
