MARCH MEETING
STETOSCORP
MARCH MEETING We Are Not Alone by Rifky Fakhri M - CIMSA FK UNPAD March Meeting is one of IFMSA’s General Assembly and this year, the 68th meeting brought the topic about Gender in Health Care. This topic was discussed with incredible external speakers with expertise in this issue. The topic was brought to ensure more people about gender’s role in the world especially in health care system and also the role of students in ensuring that every gender has reach their rights. The meeting was attended by more than 800 students all over the world. It held in Slovenian Adriatic seaside resort and spa town that located in the municipality of Piran in southwestern Slovenia. Delegates was welcomed with open-armed by SloMSIC (Slovenian Medical Students’ International Committee) on the first day in the welcoming ceremony with the Slovenian arts and culture. Starting from day 2, the delegates were divided to the sessions consisted of: SCO Sessions, President Sessions, and NMO
Management Session. Through this sessions, the delegates was enriched with issues on health problem all around the globe that are currently faced by the world and our role as medical students to resolve this problem, starting from the smallest part of the initiatives, that are the individuals itself. The sessions became more interesting because the diversity of the delegates who came from different background and political issues that were faced by each country, health problems and the resolution, also the culture itself that made every country have their uniqueness. We a re m o re t h a n p ro u d w h e n w e participated in SCORP Session, as one of Indonesia's activities, Human Rights Day 2018: Air Pullution, was presented in SCORP Activities Fair. The people were thrilled and we recieved numerous appreciation on our activities, as we have the Inter-NMO c o l l a b o r a t i o n w i t h F M S - Ta i w a n i n campaigning about Air Pollution. One of the most interestings of the SCORP Session is the Session that was brought by IFMSA’s external partner that the ICRC that stands for International Committee of the Red Cross. We discuss about Health Care In

Danger. As the future health care provider we may not know what we will be facing that have an ethical and human rights issue. One of the example topics that we discussed is about what would you do if you are a doctor on a border countries that have a conflict between the government and the rebellion, then there is a critical patient from the rebels but on the other hand there is an injured soldier that come to you after and the superior forced you to treat his patient first and pointing the gun at your head. Other interesting session is the session that was brought by IPPNW the organization that concern to abolishing the nuclear weapon. This session was the most mind blowing session that the fact is there are countries that have no doubt to using it and how the impact of the nuclear bomb for next generations to the land that was destroy by the bomb and also the survived people that have been affected by the radiation of the bomb. And there are also things that we could do as the medical students itself to help prevent nuclear war. One of the most things that I highlight when becoming the delegates and joining the Sessions is that you can become who you
wanted to be. You can become a passive delegates that just joining every session and doesn’t really participate or become someone that passionate and utilize every moment to get new friends, perspective, and knowledge from different countries. As the worlds biggest federation for medical student the GA will be attended by diverse people that you could learn anything that you never know that exist. Curiosity and active are the great thing that we should bring to the GA and no one will ever judge you for stating your point of view, your ideas and even your lack of english-speaking. In Indonesia we may facing discrimination to women’s role, limitations to the healthcare providers and disaster all over countries. And we may not know what other countries are facing injustice of countries law or even worse the never ending war or conflict. We may think as the third country, Indonesia have a big burden that we faced but if we look to another country the have a bigger problem to solve. But we are not alone to solve world problems, we have each others back to end the injustice and to make the world a better place with peace.

HRD 2018 Air Pollution and I t s I m p a c t o n C h i l d r e n ’s H e a l t h Air pollution is the biggest environmental risk to health. It may not always be visible, but it can be deadly. In Indonesia, major sources of smoke pollution include peatland fires, motor vehicles, coal-fired electric power generation, dust, open burning, and biomass burning for cooking and heating. Many of Indonesia's poorest citizens are regularly exposed to air pollution levels as much as 20 times higher than the WHO guidelines. Air pollution is an unseen threat to children's health. It is the silent killer. Each year, air pollution causes 570,000 deaths in children under 5. Children are more vulnerable to impact than adults; they breathe two times faster than adults, their respiratory tract is more permeable, their immune system is weaker, and their brain is still developing. Evidence suggests that air pollution can impair the physical and cognitive development of children. We believe that the right to health is for everyone, and by polluting air, we also take and neglect the rights of people, specifically children, the population who do not have their own voice to use to their advantage, who are more vulnerable in aspect of physical health, mental health, and many other aspects than adults. Protection against children's exposure to air pollution is not a priority, but an emergency. The Human Rights Day celebration, held by SCORP-CIMSA in December 2018, can be used as a platform to raise the issue of air pollution. We conduct both Air Campaign (infographics, collaboration videos with FMS Taiwan, and twibbon challenge) and Ground Campaign (human rights long march, air pollution simulation box, photo exhibition, and talkshow by UNICEF, Campaign ID, and HIVI on CFD Jakarta; some locals also took part in celebrating HRD by conducting trainings based on the module and guideline we provide).
Air that's polluted, won't be saluted. So, what will your children breathe? #FreetoBreathe #EveryBreathMatters #BreatheLife

IWD 2019 M e To o : T h e Ta l k Nowadays, sexual harassment has become a major issue that is faced by Indonesia. Based on Catatan Tahunan 2017 that was published by Komnas Perempuan, there has been 259.150 harassment cases against women that has occurred in Indonesia. In family setting, rape has achieved the highest number of any kind of harassment against women with 1.389 cases, followed by molestation with 1.266 cases. In community setting, sexual harassment has the highest number than other type of harassment against women. Sexual harassment cases have been mentioned many times in the newspapers and other media, but not all of Indonesian people are aware of this issue. They often don’t realize that they themselves have been victim to sexual harassment, or they think that this problem isn’t that important. In many cases, the victim usually chooses to stay silent. Many people blame the victim rather than the abuser. They say that it’s the victim’s fault because they give “opportunity” to the abuser. Sexual harassment does not only give negative impact to the victim’s physical condition but also to their mental health. Physical impacts of sexual harassment take shorter time to recover compared to the impact of sexual harassment on mental health, which takes a lot more work and a longer recovery period, perhaps even lasting a lifetime. Furthermore, it may lead the victim to take the decision of ending her life. In order to commemorate IWD 2019, SCORP and SCORA CIMSA are conducting this campaign against sexual harassment, including Air Campaign (infographics regarding the rising number of sexual abuse experienced by women and the #MeToo movement; IWD video series to promote the importance of speaking up to women’s rights) and Ground Campaign (HRT X PETRA Training by locals and “#MeToo: The Talk” talkshow with three notable speakers to share their thoughts on sexual abuse and harassment). Hopefully this campaign will make a real impact in tackling the issue of sexual harassment.

NEWS-IDDRR | 16
STETOSCORP
I AM THE CHANGE Natural disasters strike affect millions of people every year worldwide. Over the past decade more than 1.5 billion people have been affected by disasters that cost at least US$ 1.3 trillion. Climate change, weak governance, and increasing population of people and number of assets in areas exposed to natural hazards are driving disaster risk upwards, especially in poor and fragile countries. This poses a critical threat to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). We can reduce the risks rooting from rapid urbanisation, poverty, environmental deterioration, and climate change. Above all, we need to avoid risks in the ďŹ rst place. This demands more education, culture, and local knowledge, along with prevention skills. This year, the International Day for Disaster Risk Reduction conducted by SCORP-CIMSA focused on engaging and mobilizing people throughout social media to make them well-informed about climate change and disaster risk reduction that we have to tackle. Through this proper nationwide celebration, we would like to hold air campaign and also radio and web broadcasts to raise awareness.
RADIO & WEB BROADCASTING CIMSA, UNESCO, & RRI On Monday, October 22nd 2018, at Radio Republik Indonesia World Service Voice of Indonesia, CIMSA represented by Sherly (LO UNA), had an opportunity to discuss about Climate Change and Disaster Risk R e d u c t i o n w i t h M s . Yu n i a r t i Wahyuningtyas (UNESCO Project Assistant Social & Human Sciences Unit) in commemoration of International Day for Disaster Risk. We discussed about the background of climate change and disaster risk reduction, the role of medical students in doing disaster risk reduction as a real actor to response the impact of climate
change, and UNESCO’s global and local action to Taking Real Action in Managing Climate Change Impact by Disaster Risk Reduction. The discussion was recorded by Voice of Indonesia, and the audio streaming is available in Indonesian and English. The video is also available for streaming in English. Hopefully, this event could become the start of awareness raising on how important preventing and managing disaster is.

HUSAIN M FA J A R SURASNO, S.Ked Hello Kak Fano! can you tell us about your activities these days? Hello Nita. I am currently in the middle of my internship in Pediatric Department. Besides that, I'm currently serving as the Advisory Board of SCORP CIMSA. Can you tell us why you joined CIMSA, Kak? What was your first impression about CIMSA? From the beginning, I was very interested with SCORP. In senior high school, I joined the Children's Forum, which is a forum from Kementerian Pemberdayaan Perempuan dan Anak. This forum's concern on four children's rights turned out to be similar to SCORP’s. I even had the opportunity to represent the Maluku Children Forum on a national event that took place in Yogyakarta. Then when I was a child, I was affected by conflicts related to SARA in Ambon. I had to go through that multiple times in 3 different places. It became a trauma for me and my family. From the conflicts, I learned to appreciate diversity more.
Well, from that background, I was interested with SCORP. After becoming a member, I realized that not only SCORP, CIMSA is the right place to develop our soft skills, by keeping in touch with the community through its projects. CIMSA clearly facilitates us to be involved in an organization with a wider scope, beyound our locals or areas. What encouraged you to be the Local Officer on Human Rights and Peace of CIMSA UI, Kak Fano? Actually, I had no ambition to become a LORP. But my heart was touched when my predecessor shared a story about the Cuban Revolution, where he told us how we could, not only become a doctor, but an activator of human rights. We will be more helpful. In addition, there was one of CIMSA UI's projects, named "River Camp" where members were invited to experience life on the banks of the Ciliwung River. I enjoyed this project very much. Based on these things, I decided to become a LORP.

senior & alumni corner Could you tell us a bit how CIMSA affected your life? Was there any memorable experience you can share with us?
Why did you want to become the National Officer on Human Rights and Peace? There were several reasons, but basically some people around me gave me a lot of support. Because of the great support from the people around me and my great desire for it, I established myself to become a NORP. Can you tell us your unforgettable experience as NORP? One of my unforgettable moments is ACTION 2017 in Surabaya. Because at that time, I was just elected as NORP, and had to directly supervise ACTION 2017 Organizing Committee. But because of that, I was able to build a very good relationship with CIMSA UNAIR and people around Asia Pacific. And I still keep in touch with them! I built a lot of relations with people from all over Indonesia, and also from other countries. Until now, we still discuss about current issues and things related to SCORP, like the case that just happened in Bangladesh regarding Sexual Assault.
Very impactful, CIMSA had helped me become better at multitasking and being more professional in working and also improve my communication skill. Those qualities are very important to have as a medical student. CIMSA allows me to meet with many motivational figure and i got a lot of insights. As we know, in the working world it’s not enough to just be smart, but also requires links and soft skills. Do you have any message and advice for Scorpions all around Indonesia? - Set your goals when joining an organization. When you know your goals, you will be passionate about that field. - Do not half-heartedly achieve this, do not easily feel pleased. You must continue to explore yourself. Because the more you contribute to CIMSA, the more you will get from CIMSA.
That’s a wrap for our interview with Kak Fano! We do hope that the stories he had shared could keep us motivated and more inspired to create big impact through CIMSA. See you in our next Senior & Alumni Corner! Salam Dipidipidip!

WAR IN YEMEN The Worst Humanitarian Crisis We Seldom Hear R AY H A N FA C H R U D I N
Out of all the tragedies and conflicts that are happening around the world at this moment, one of them has in many ways reached an unprecedented level of suffering and destruction to the point of the United Nations labelling it “The worst humanitarian crisis in the world”. And yet, the War in Yemen has garnered far less attention than other notable events happening around the world. Yemen has been in a state of conflict since 2015 after the Houthis, a group comprised mostly of the country’s oppressed Zaidi Shia minority and other Yemenis disgruntled with the government,launched a coup in response to government corruption and ineffectiveness which prompted a military intervention by Saudi Arabia to restore the toppled Yemeni Government into power once more. To put into perspective how bad the humanitarian situation in Yemen is, according to a report by the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA), 24 million people (80% of the country’s population) are in need of humanitarian assistance including 14.3 million people who are in acute need. The lack of food and medicine, access to clean water, and poor sanitations lead to widespread cases of malnutrition and
cholera epidemics while also putting the country on the brink of famine. Made even more unbearable by the blockade imposed by the Saudi led coalition which restricts all goods coming in to the country along with the fact that Yemen is heavily depended on imports for basic necessities such as food, fuel, and medicine. The war has destroyed the livelihoods of the Yemeni people. Yemeni civilians have to endure the hardships that came with being in a warzone. The blockade imposed on the country has made it hard for people to escape and seek refuge to a safer place. Destruction caused by all sides in the conflict has resulted in the collapse of the economy and the public institutions that provided basic services such as healthcare and education to cease functioning. It has been estimated by the Yemen Data Project, that an average of 600 civilian structures are damaged or destroyed every month. The conflict has now entered its fourth year. Thousands of people have lost their lives and millions more are threatened with the risk of diseases and hunger. It is with hope that in the future more awareness could be raised on this particular conflict and peace in the region could finally come that would safeguard the future of the Yemeni people.

HUMAN RIGHTS DAY | UGM
STETOSCORP
H U M A N R I G H T S D AY BY SCORP CIMSA UGM Air pollution is an invisible killer that people often ignore, and its most vulnerable victims, children, are even more invisible. According to the International Energy Agency in 2015, Indonesia is the sixth largest contributor of greenhouse gases in the world. Its impact is quiet obvious: 25% percent of Indonesians suffer from upper respiratory tract infections according to Riskesdas, 2013. Despite the obvious facts, burning of Indonesia’s vast forests and pollution from transportation all over the country point out just how little people are aware of, or even care about, the situation, let alone on the impact of this situation to the most vulnerable victim: children. According to UNICEF in 2017, 17 million children under the age of 1 year lives in places where its air pollution exceeds the international standard by staggering 6 times, and 12 million of them resides in South Asia. With this in mind, SCORP CIMSA UGM decided on the theme “Air Pollution and Its Impact on Children’s Health” as this year’s Human Rights Day, to raise awareness of millions of children whose rights to develop fully are in danger due to the ignorance of people. After a pre-project training for our members, the event started on the morning of Saturday, December 8th 2018. About 40 people rode bicycles together from FK-KMK UGM towards SDN Pogung Kidul, about 5 km away, in an effort to reduce gas emissions from vehicles. Upon arrival, we met with energetic children of grades 2 and 3, whom we grouped. In form of games, we taught them steps on a greener lifestyle. After that, we allowed the children to

decorate plastic bottles cut in half, as recycled pots for seedlings. Balai Pengelolaan Daerah Aliran Sungai dan Hutan Lindung Serayu Opak Progo (BPDAS Yogyakarta) provided us with 30 fruit seedlings to plant around the school. Koalisi Pemuda Hijau Indonesia (KOPHI) acted as fasilitators to teach the children the correct way to plant and take care of the seedlings. The activity was closed with decorating the banner with green paint with the children. The second part of Human Rights Day was held in FK-KMK UGM on December 10th 2018, where the banner decorated by the children was displayed as a photobooth, along with infographics on air pollution, and a section where people could paste their thoughts and opinions on the topic. People, mostly consisting of students, were enthusiastic in observing the infographics and pasting their thoughts. By the end of the day, the display was ďŹ lled with colored paper with handwritten notes. Overall, the celebration went very well, and with its success, hopefully awareness was raised for the rights of the invisible victims or air pollution.

TABLET | UNS
STETOSCORP
TA B L E T BY SCORP CIMSA UNS In 2019, the government targets 100% of the Indonesian people to be guaranteed by BPJS Kesehatan. Meanwhile, until now, the number of participants in the National Health Insurance or JKN in Indonesia have reached 199,133,927 with 27,330 health facilities. The existence of a National Health Insurance or JKN is very helpful for the community to get good health services at the expense of the government. Based on data from the membership of BPJS Surakarta branch as of May 31st 2018, as many as 549,399 or almost 95% of the citizens of Surakarta have been registered as participants or members. Based on this, in order to achieve the 100% target from the government, SCORP CIMSA UNS is proud to hold TABLET (Tahu BPJS Lebih Intens).
TABLET is an event-based activity as a forum for the community to have better understanding about the procedures related to BPJS Kesehatan and continue to play an active role in the success of this government program. This event was held on Friday, November 2nd 2018 in Setabelan village, precisely in the village hall of Setabelan. This event was presented directly by speakers from the BPJS, Dr. Dodi Nawan Saputra, and from the Surakarta City Health OfďŹ ce, Ms. Sri, who has the authority to explain procedures or mechanisms in terms of BPJS Health membership.

The event was attended by more than 20 people from the Setabelan village who were representatives of each RT in Setabelan village. Most of the attendants were special representatives appointed by the RT to ask questions regarding the problems of BPJS Health in their respective RTs. This event started at 3:40 p.m., there was a pre-test to measure the knowledge of the attendants regarding the topic. After that, there was the delivery of materials by BPJS represented by Dr. Dodi Nawan Saputra which was then followed by Question and Answer session. The Question and Answer session was very exciting, the participants were very active and enthusiastic to ask about issues that had occurred to their families or other families in their neighborhood.
Then, as usual it was ended with a post-test to measure whether there was an increase in knowledge of the materials that had been given. Furthermore, each speaker was given a certificate and then the event was continued with photo session. Besides that, we also held games and door prize session. The attendants were very enthusiastic in taking part in this session. There were five winners, those who managed to answer the questions correctly. Hopefully, this event can help both the government to disseminate the people's understanding of BPJS, as well as beneficial to the community.

HUG BY SCORP CIMSA UPH A refugee is someone who has been forced to flee his or her country because of persecution, war or violence (UNHCR). Refugees leaving their homes are most likely afraid or cannot return home as prosecutions for reasons of race, nationality, political opinion, membership in particular group, or because of natural disasters that destroyed their homes. Refugees are just like us. They have the right to live their lives, have peace, and have a home. T h i s y e a r, S C O R P C I M S A U P H i n collaboration with United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR Indonesia), Church World Services (CWS Indonesia), and Sekolah Tinggi Pariwisata Pelita Harapan (STPPH) organized an event called HUG or “Help for Refugees”. The aim of this project is to aid the refugees in terms of food and nutrition via info session and cooking demonstration. According to UNHCR Indonesia (2018), refugees in Indonesia are at an increasing risk for non-
communicable diseases such as diabetes and stroke due to the lack of knowledge and familiarity in regards to Indonesian foods. Local alternatives in the form of carbohydrate, protein, fiber, and vitamins that the refugees were given to are not well known within their community, so they either spend too much in expensive foods that they do recognize or they opt for relatively unhealthy options that are more accessible. Hence the theme of this event was “Low in price, high in nutrition”, in hopes of addressing this relevant issue within the refugee community. Participants of this event were Somalian refugees. Around 20 families attended, with a total of 50 participants. The event was commenced by greetings from Erica Widodo as vice local coordinator for external affairs CIMSA UPH, and by a representative of the CWS. The first main event was an educational session delivered by DR. Dr. Dwi Susilowati MSc. IBCLC. SpGK

about nutrition and local foods which meet the daily nutritional intake recommendations without breaking the bank. The following session was QnA which displayed high enthusiasm from the participants as they still had many burning questions after the time was up. Afterwards, we had a cooking demonstration from STPPH. The concept of this activity was to have a main chef demonstrating how to cook two simple, healthy, and cheap menus while the participants also cook along. The OC supplied the cooking appliances and ingredients and set up 4 cooking booths such would a proper cooking show. The menus were “Sup Kembang Tahu Ayam” and “Sauteed Vegetables”,two very simple and cheap yet tasty and nutritious Indonesian dishes applicable for cooking in daily life of anyone, not just refugees. After the cooking session, the meals were then served and everyone had dinner together. After dinner, the organizing committee bid their farewells and the participants delivered
their thoughts on the event. The refugees appreciated the OC for the project and considered this as a refreshing and recreational event because of the opportunity to gather and sit down to have a meal with everyone in the Somalian refugee community. This activity was organized according to the CIMSA Program: Human Rights Equality by helping to identify and then act upon the needs of the refugees in Indonesia, and the CIMSA Program: Non Communicable Diseases by delivering education and initiating empowerment in the hopes of improving their quality of life through nutrition.

Two years have gone by, now SCORP CIMSA is back with SCORP CAMP 2019. As we all have known, SCORP CAMP is a SCORP’s national meeting which facilitates not only SCORP member, but also every CIMSA’s member who has interests in human rights issues and environmental sustainability. Last held at Universitas Yarsi, Jakarta in 2017. This year, SCORP CIMSA FK UNS has been given the opportunity to host this event. Unlike any other national meeting in CIMSA, SCORP CAMP will give CIMSA’s member the experience to feel what is like out there living with refugee’s condition. As the issues about human rights, disaster, climate change, and refugees continue to evolve and come to the surface, we as millennials should pay more attention regarding these issues. SCORP CIMSA has come up with an idea regarding these issues, and it is called SCORP CAMP! SCORP CAMP serves as a place for all member of CIMSA to be trained to become Human Right Trainer (HRT) and CIMSA’s Humanitarian Response Team (CHRT). As a medical student, we can raise our voice and influence others about human rights issues such as human right awareness, women and child abuse, and health as human rights. These actions could be achieved by intense training that will be given by selected HRT and also other external speakers to boost your knowledge about human rights. Also, by being CHRT, you could contribute at post-disaster area, while still providing helps that refugees need. Universitas Sebelas Maret is very honoured to be the host of SCORP CAMP 2019, we hope with this event, CIMSA’s members could bring their knowledge about all the issues we listed above to their daily life as a medical student, and change the world for t h e b e t t e r. S e e y o u a t S u r a k a r t a ! SCORPIONS, We Rule!
