“community development�

Adianto & Aditya

introduction & definitions Back in 2007, Indonesia government launched a new initiative, community facilitator, a kind of community development program as national poverty program. Poverty programs usually about giving basic foods or money so community development stands out by giving something different, more than temporary prosperity.

Community development can be defined as the attempt or process to grow awareness, willingness, and ability of communities to maintain, protect, and improve the welfare of their own.Community development seeks to empower individuals and groups of people by providing them with the skills they need to effect change in their own communities. These skills are often created through the formation of large social groups working for a common agenda. The principle of community development is to develop the potential of community. In community development, the role of people inside community is vital, because they are the one who takes the main role. Community development involves changing the relationships between ordinary people and people in positions of power, so that everyone can take part in the issues that affect their lives.

the importance of community development in health

Health is a human right and one of the elements of prosperity that must be realized. In order to achieve health independence in society, one important element is community development. Community development about health aims to increase awareness and knowledge of the health of individuals, groups, and communities, causing a willingness to perform an action to improve their health, and lead the community to the realization of healthy behaviors.

Community development in health is the primary goal of health promotion considering community as the mayor target of health promotion. Community development have to be conducted so that the community development will give the community desire and ability to maintain and improve their health.

Community development aims to make communities independent, in meaning the communities have the capability to solve the health problems faced. A society is said to be independent if they have some knowledge to identify health problems in their own neighborhood. The knowledge includes knowledge about disease, nutrition and food, housing and sanitation, as well as the dangers of smoking and substances that may cause health problems. Furthermore, they are able to solve problems on their own health by maintaining health and taking preventive action from the disease.

EXCHANGE STORIES Sheira Nilofar (UPH) Bergen, Norway

I

’m very happy I had a chance to join CIMSA exchange program. I never imagine in my life going to Norway, because it is very far from Indonesia. Norway is a beautiful country with adorable scenery. It also is very popular with their salmon and home of the most beautiful fjord in the world. Many people who like hiking went to Norway to hike the fjord and enjoy the scenery. My exchange started on July 2013 and end on August 2013. I got placed in Bergen, one of the beautiful city in Norway. In this city the weather is very different from other places, because in Bergen it always rains and we seldom got sunlight.

Bergen is also hilly, so when you walk you can really enjoy the beautiful scenery.

This program gave me opportunity to get many new experiences. From this program I got the chance to get a lot of knowledge and experience from the expert. In Bergen, I was assigned to the plastic surgery department in Haukeland universitetssykehus (Helse Bergen). In this department I learned how to suture, wound care management and also applying skin graft for burn patient. The doctors are very nice, and they really want to share their knowledge and experience.

Not only that, I also got a lot of new friends from all over the world. When I was there, I got eight other female exchange participant. There are two from Spain, two from Brazil, one from Mexico, one from French and one from Quebec. We share a lot of stories from our country. We also cooked our traditional food and share it. From this program I also learned to be more independent. That’s my story from CIMSA exchange program. I’m very happy and also very thankful for having this opportunity in my life. I hope this program can give opportunities to other people.

T

his is my third time to go for an exchange program abroad. But in this exchange, I feel very nervous because I went to a city called Londrina in Brazil, South America. This country is so out of my imagination and if it was not because of the exchange, I would not go there. Fortunately, there was another exchange participant from Indonesia. We are afraid because the language is Portuguese, which none of us are familiar with and Brazil is very far from Indonesia.

In Londrina, I feel very welcomed, because

the people are so calm and kind. I used to live in a small town, therefore living in Londrina is not a big problem for me. The doctors in the hospital are very humble and are willing to teach us. During my time there, I learned a lot of things such as language, attitudes, teamwork, and problem solving with them.

All of my friends and collegues there also help me to deal with situations and especially with language.

Ivani Ch. Kurniadi (UPH) Londrina, Brazil

It was a bit difficult at first, and the doc tor in charge there thinks that we only want the high mark and the certificate from this program, not the knowledge. Thank God we succeed to built trust with them, because we really want to learn. This exchange creates a great memory and experience for me. I want to say thank you for all parties who arrange this program, because I learned a lot.

B

onjour a tous! Hello everyone!

First, let me introduce my self. My name is Clarisa Finanda, a 4th year medical student in Faculty of Medicine, Airlangga University, Surabaya.

Last February 2013 I did my exchange at Lille, a beautiful city in the north of France. ANEMF gave me Dermatology department at Claude Huriez Hospital. I was so happy because Lille is my second choice, which called “Heart of Europe''. My LEO gave me an ArabicFrench host family who are Muslim. They helped me adapt faster. I had some cultural shock, yes, such as “bisous'' or kiss on both cheek between man and woman, but the other incomings were so nice because they didn't discriminate me. European countries have a good public transportation, which is very comfortable for daily activity. It was an unique experience to ''travel'' by. Back at home, I can eat well with €1!

But at France, hospital was my favorite for a cheap lunch with €3.74, if you compare it with having lunch outside for minimum €8.00. Geez. Conclusion, I love Europe so much! You have to come there, it's a worthy once-in-a-lifetime experience!

edical students from the ever rapidly growing Asia Pacific region gathered in Yogyakarta, Indonesia for IFMSA Asia Pacific Regional Meeting (APRM), on 5-8 September 2013.The medical students joined this important event to have deeper understanding on MDGs progress in Asia Pacific region throughout series of seminar, workshop, and forum.

With this regional meeting the medical student can learn more about healthy and sustainable development through Universal Health Coverage (UHC). This meeting’s theme is Health’s a forgotten wealth: Universal Health Coverage for Healthy and Sustainable Development. It is important for medical students to know the present condition and the obstacle about the health system in their region. They should also know about the platform for the future doctors’ role related to post-2015 sustainable development agenda. This year we have made the draft of recomendation APRM as the result of APRM 2013 that have been proposed to National Health Ministry.

THE DRAFT OF RECOMENDATION APRM:

FR

AP TO A

1. Universal Health Coverage, highlighting equitable access for all citizens of a population.

2. Sustainable healthcare systems, with governments taking an active role in ensuring that health is a priority, ensuring that these systems are effective and kept accountable.

3. Medical education within the region to produce graduates capable of practicing and influencing the health and medical field beyond their clinical practice, within an ever growing mobile world.

F

ortunately, the draft of recomendation APRM lead CIMSA to the third APEC High Level Meeting on Health and the Economy (HLM 3) which held in Nusa Dua, Bali, Indoneisa, on 24-25 September 2013. Mega Iriani Putri and Jesita Silfiana Purnama were invited to this meeting by Ministry of Health on behalf of APRMCIMSA. Participants concluded that the continued prosperity of the region is predicated on an ability to provide citizens with quality health care through system that are sustainable and responsive to the health care problems and the health care demands of people. In terms of economic growth and development, the per capita value of health investment in economics dwarfts per capita value of all other forms of investment.

That is why health is a key pillar of the

13

sustainable growth with equal priority of APEC 2013. Participants discussed how a collaborative, multi-stakeholder and whole govermental approach to establishing health priorities is desirable to improve health and health innovation outcomes in sustainable way.

PEC HLM 3 observed that the disease profile of economies in the APEC region has many commonalities. In most APEC

EIGHT KEY FACTORS

developing economies, spending for health and the sustainability of health systems are increasingly strained by the rise in the morbidity and mortality of non-communicable diseases and continued unacceptable burdens of communicable disease, including re-emerging infectious diseases, and a rise in anti-microbial resistance.

Participants noted that these factors can have an adverse impact on financing health. At the same time, APEC economies are committed to providing their communities with access to quality universal health coverage as an investment in their future socio-economic well-being and as a key contributor to the comprehensive wealth and productivity of the economy. There is benefit in sharing information and best practices in these areas and identifying areas of collaboration and cooperation to reduce the burden of disease and cost of care.

contributing to the sustainability of a system that provides universal health coverage: 1. Health Financing 2. Health system respond to technology shifts 3. Health promotion and disease prevention 4. Health workforce availability and competencies 5. The integrity of the health system 6. Sustainable public-private partnerships 7. A strong regulatory framework 8. The cost-effectiveness of primary health care.

OPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Diseases) is caused by unhealthy lifestyles and the lack of environmental awareness, such as smoking, high level of pollution, dust exposure, fumes, gases and chemical agents. However, there are so many people who are not aware about these dangers.

“Indonesia has the third largest number of smoker in the world which has reached around 146.86 million people.”

Due to the increasing number of vehicles & population and also the lack of plants and trees, pollution in Indonesia has reached a harmful stage.

Therefore, MSCIA Universitas Brawijaya held “Malang Lung Rider” as a medium to introduce COPD to public. This event aimed to increase public awareness of COPD and

also intended to raise funds for people with COPD. Malang Lung Rider was also held to commemorate COPD day which due every year on November 18. The theme of this event is “Take Action to Prevent COPD”.

Malang Lung Rider was held on Sunday, November 17 2013. The main activity on this event is health campaign about COPD and its prevention by medical students of FKUB. This activity begins with Fun Bike (sepeda santai), Pulmonary Exercise (senam paru), Health Campaign, Food Festival, music and art performances.

First event of Malang Lung Rider is the fun bike, where students and people around FKUB went cycling together. Hopefully with this activity, the students of FKUB and the society realized that a fun, cheap, and a beneficial activity can be done easily. Then in Pulmonary exercise (senam paru), medical students of FKUB and the attendants did the exercise by following the instructor from Batu Lung Hospital, Malang.

17

There was also a photography exhibition for attendees and they can vote for the best photo while enjoying the exhibition. After that, the activity was followed by health campaign which was performed by medical students from FKUB to people who attend the event about pulmonary health, COPD, and its prevention. Through these activities, they spread leaflets and explained it to the people about COPD.

more people to attend this event need to be more intensive and attractive, so there will be more people joining this event and the purpose to increase awareness about COPD to society and its prevention to public will succeed. We are so grateful because this event can run smoothly. Hopefully this event gives benefit to people who attend it.

“Hopefully with this activity, people’s awareness about COPD will increase.”

The organizing committees also provide this event with music and traditional dance performances as an attraction to raise funds.

There was also a performance from Unda Undi Band – Malang top indie band - as a closing of this event.

Overall, this event was successfully done.

Maybe next time the publication to attract

Health, A Forgotten Wealth: Universal Health Coverage for Healthy and Sustainable Development

s medical students, it is not enough if we only know about diseases things, right? We should recognize and be familiar with health issue, such as global health, health coverage/insurance, millenium development goals, poverty and health, global warming, etc. Health is one of the most important human asset. Unfortunately, some of us have not realized and forgotten about that because it is not seen as an essential and important aspect. We’re really sure medical students, especially CIMSA members, have been familiar with the national health coverage program. So, the question is, do medical students really know and understand about health coverage? What we can do? What is our role? How to get involved?

NMO Indonesia (CIMSA-ISMKI) got a great opportunity to organize another international meeting of medical students, known as the Asia Pacific Regional Meeting (APRM), an annual regional conference of the International Federation of Medical Students’ Association (IFMSA). This conference became a chance for CIMSA to show the role and existency to

the world. The APRM 2013 was held in Yogyakarta, 3-8th September 2013, with a theme “A Forgotten Wealth Health: Universal Health Coverage for Healthy and Sustainable Development”.

The APRM is divided into three parts: Pre APRM which is held on 3rd-4th September 2013, the main event APRM which is held on 5-8th September 2013, and the social program called Post APRM. Pre APRM which was held in University of Muhammadiyah Yogyakarta was attended by 35 delegates from various countries: China, Indonesia, Taiwan, Japan, and Australia. We also invited two IFMSA trainers from Portugal and Sudan to give TNT training. In PreAPRM, there were TNT and Workshop “Taking Part of Sustainable Development”. PreAPRM activities became a chance to discuss regarding the role and involvement of medical students in the making of sustainable development. The participants also had discussion with the experts who have been invited to be guest speakers pre-APRM, such as dr. Triono from UKP4 and Mr. Lutfi from HBB (Hospital Beyond Boundaries) Malaysia . The participants not only dis-

Project Fair

SCORA Asia-Pacific cussed, but also made a letter of recommendation that will be submitted to the relevant stakeholders.

The main goals of our theme event activities are the recommendation or statement from medical student that will be submitted into high level meeting or panels, especially in Asia Pacific region.

The main event of APRM took at the Sheraton Hotel Yogyakarta. A total of 136 delegates from various countries were present and followed the event since the first until the last day. The welcoming ceremony attended by representative of the Ministry of Health, representative of the Governor of Yogyakarta, Health Department of Yogyakarta, and the Dean of the Faculty of Medicine of Gadjah Mada University and University of Muhammadiyah Yogyakarta.

The four days event filled with 8 training sessions held by the standing committee, workshops, panel discussion, global health fairs, and social programs.

Theme event session was held at the University of Gadjah Mada. It was divided into four sessions: the keynote lecture, panel discussion with the experts, workshops, and student panel discussion.

Keynote lectures session presented Ms. Diah as a representative of the KUKPRI, Usman Mustaq as VPE of IFMSA and Renzo Guinto as LO WHO of IFMSA. The delegates got explanation on health care and global health issues. The session was continued by a panel discussion. The panel discussion presented Prof.Ali Gufron as Vice Minister of Ministry of Health, Mrs. Laura Hawken as representative of WHO SEARO, and Renzo Guinto as moderator. The delegates were very enthusiastic and gave opinions about health insurance. This session will be an opportunity for delegates, especially the Indonesian delegation, to be able to share their opinions in front of the speakers who do have an important role in the health policy and implementation in Indonesia.

In general, APRM went well and getting positive feedback from the delegates. They said that they get more insight and different perspective, especially about health coverage. In addition, the meeting was an opportunity to make more friends from different countries. APRM was supported by the Ministry of Health, Ministry of Tourism and Creative Economy, WHO SEARO, KUKPRI, UKP4, Government of Yogyakarta, Health Department of Yogyakarta, and some sponsors. Hopefully, through the APRM 2013, the delegates, as part of the young generation, can become agents of change and can take a real action to get involved in the making of a better global health.

Sosialisasi

SJSN

SJSN system covers two aspects; the healthcare system and it’s workers. The healthcare system is called JKN, Jaminan Kesehatan Nasional or the national health insurance.

What is JKN? JKN is a new healthcare system based on the principle of mutual support by using premium, similar to insurance in which everyone is obligated to pay.

First and foremost, everyone must register themselves to BPJS, Badan Penyelenggara Jaminan Sosial which is the organization that run the system. After that everyone must pay their annual premium just like insurance, so that after the system is applied no one uses out of pocket money to pay for their health needs.

How about the poor people that couldn’t afford it?

For those segments, there would be no premium to join the system and their healthcare needs are paid using the premium from others, with hopes that every Indonesia citizen will get adequate and same treatment.

Then, what is the difference between normal health insurance with JKN? Health insurances from private entities usually came with high premium which is unreachable for most Indo-

21

SJSN, or the national health care system is a new healthcare financing system from the government which just started recently. This healthcare system went in effect on January 2014, and replaces the old ASKES healthcare, but now with broader scope and involvement.

nesian especially those with lower income, and health insurance is voluntary. On the other hand, in JKN the premium is relatively low so that everyone could join and thus giving them comprehensive health care.

JKN also uses principle of quality healthcare with adequate and fair financial compensation to the healthcare provider, and most importantly JKN is compulsory for everyone, so that Indonesia can attain universal healthcare coverage.

Alas, JKN is only a system which is mere theory and thus does not guarantee good execution or universal coverage. We hope that this new system can function properly and become a benefit for everyone involves; the patient, healthcare workers, and also the people that run the system so that the goal and effect of JKN can be enjoyed by every Indonesian.

With universal coverage we can improve the human development index and hopefully we can attain welfare for every Indonesia citizen.

O

n the third day of October Meeting, the participants was having a small group discussion. It took about two hours to discussing about the whole issues. One of the main focus of our activity is to support government project called Sistem Jaminan Sosial Nasional (SJSN), which will be a social healthcare program for everyone. The form of Social protection include public intervention and privates initiatives. The current form of social protection is based on two kinds of public intervention. The first point is contributory social insurance and mandatory saving (social security) and the second is non-contributory provision of social support to target poor and vulnerable group of society (social assistance). As a medical student, we are focusing on the social service and healthcare for the poor. The social security form will be changed from Persero to Badan Penyelenggara Jaminan Sosial (BPJS) on 1 January 2014.

In order to support SJSN program, we have to improve our quality as a primary healthcare provider. According to declaration of Alma-Ata, primary healthcare reflects and evolves from the economic conditions and sociocultural and political characteristics of the country and its communities and is based on the application of the relevant results of social, biomedical and health services research and public health experience. Besides that we also have to address the main health problems in the community by

providing promotive, preventive, curative and rehabilitative services such as education about emerging health problems and the prevention methods and controls, promotion of food intake and proper nutrition, adequate supply of drinkable water and basic sanitation, maternal and child health care, including family planning; immunization against the major infectious diseases, prevention and control of locally endemic diseases, appropriate treatment of common diseases and injuries, and provision of essential drugs.

As a doctor, we also work in a system. Puskesmas should be sustained by integrated, functional and mutually supportive referral systems. By doing that, we will make a progressive improvement of comprehensive health care for all and giving priority to those most in need.

Not only the doctors, but also our community have to be taught to improve theirselves. In addition to the health sector, it also involves all related sectors and aspects of national and community development, in particular agriculture, food, industry, education, public works, communications, and demand the coordinated efforts of all those sectors. It requires and promotes community and individual self-reliance and participation in the planning, organization, operation and control of primary health care, making fullest use of local, national and other available resources, and to this end develops through appropriate education the ability of communities to participate.

Like wise person said, “Prevention is better than cure�. So this is our role to teach our communities to be more aware about their health from the basic little thing as washing hands before eating. To do a big thing, we Jesita S. & Iswandy T. must start from a little thing. Start from what you can do. So why we have to wait until being a doctor to help other people? Act Like a Medical Student, Think Like a Doctor!
