CAPSID (Campaign About AIDS Prevention and Study of HIV Without Discrimination) 2017

World AIDS Day 2017

Setiap tahunnya, tanggal 1 Desember diperingati sebagai Hari AIDS Sedunia atau yang lebih familiar dengan World AIDS Day oleh seluruh masyarakat di dunia. Tangggal ini diperingati sebagai metode untuk menumbuhkan kesadaran akan pentingnya pengetahuan mengenai cara penularan dan pencegahan penyakit AIDS kepada masyarakat. Selama ini, banyak masyarakat yang memiliki stigma/anggapan yang tidak baik terhadap pengidap HIV/AIDS sehingga para penderita HIV/AIDS sering merasa diabaikan dan dikucilkan. Padahal, apabila masyarakat mengerti apa itu HIV dan AIDS serta cara penularannya, penderita HIV dan AIDS akan mendapatkan dukungan yang lebih baik dalam menghadapi penyakitnya. Oleh karena itu, para mahasiswa kedokteran yang bergabung ke dalam AMSA-Unsyiah mengadakan sosialisasi mengenai HIV dan AIDS serta kampanye kesehatan dalam rangka World AIDS Day 2017 di Lapangan Blang Padang pada hari Minggu, 2 Desember 2017 lalu.

World AIDS Day 2017 oleh AMSA-Unsyiah diperingati melalui acara CAPSID (Campaign About AIDS Prevention and Study of HIV Without Discrimination) yang terdiri dari dua rangkaian yaitu melalui kampanye kesehatan online dan offline. Secara online, member AMSA-Unsyiah mengupload foto dirinya dengan screen poster World AIDS Day 2017 AMSA-Unsyiah di akun sosial media masing-masing disertai caption mengenai pentingnya pengetahuan masyarakat tentang HIV dan AIDS yang lebih baik. Selain itu, member AMSA-Unsyiah juga melakukan kampanye kesehatan secara langsung (offline) kepada masyarakat yang berkunjung ke Lapangan Blang Padang dengan menghampiri pengunjung satu per satu melalui poster kesehatan. Tidak hanya itu, para relawan juga memberikan challenge kepada pengunjung untuk mengambil foto bersama Orang Dengan HIV/AIDS (ODHA) pada booth WAD yang telah disediakan sembari merangkul ODHA tersebut.

Dengan adanya kampanye World AIDS Day 2017 ini, diharapkan masyarakat akan lebih mengerti apakah HIV dan AIDS sebenarnya dan dapat menghapus stigma yang telah terbentuk terhadap penderita HIV dan AIDS.

World AIDS Day 2017, Let’s Break the Stigma!

AMSA District 1 Project - LACTOSE (Learn and Act in Improving the Safety and Quality of Nutrtional Care)

By AMSA-Unsyiah - March 22, 2018

AMSA District 1 Project : LACTOSE

(Learn and Act in Improving the Safety and Quality of Nutrtional Care)

Hosted by AMSA-Syiah Kuala University

Banda Aceh, February, 23-25^th 2017

AMSA-Indonesia is consisted of 6 districts across Indonesia. Every district has their own culture, uniqueness and spirit. Annually, each district makes a project to directly approach society via AMSA District Project (ADP). This year, AMSA District 1 Project began the series of ADPs. The unity and rewarding impact has colored up the project for valuable outcome towards AMSA’s members and society.

AMSA District 1 Project was hosted by AMSA-Unsyiah in Banda Aceh, February, 23-25th 2017 with the title: “LACTOSE: Learn and Act in Improving the Safety and Quality of Nutritional Care”. In this event, all AMSA District 1 universities were gathered for three days in giving shape of AMSA’s philosophies: Knowledge, Action and Friendship. On the first day, the delegates arrived in Banda Aceh to attend a lecture given by dr. Aslinar Sp.A on the afternoon and also welcoming party in the evening. On the next day, the delegates headed to Desa Nusa (Nusa Village), the only one tourist village in province, for social actions. Together with 32 specialist doctors from Ikatan Dokter Anak Indonesia (IDAI), Persatuan Dokter Mata Indonesia (PERDAMI) and Komite Daerah Penanggulangan Gangguan Pendengaran dan Ketulian (KOMDA PGPKT), all delegates did anthropometry, ear and eye screening for 95 students of SD 2 Desa Nusa. The delegates directly learned and discussed with the doctors about the screening techniques and many other interesting things.

The delegates also visited citizen’s home to deliver the importance of immunization and diabetes as non-communicable disease based on the fact that there is low immunization and NCD prevention awareness level in the village. The delegates have also done the anthropometry at citizen’s home to check the children nutritional status. 32 houses have successfully visited by the delegates! In the evening, all the delegates feel the excitement of AMSA District on the farewell party. Each AMSA university shows their performance in front of audience happily. With delicious foods and amazing breeze, everyone enjoyed the party till the night dropped.

There is a different between AD1P and other ADPs. Due to long distance, there is only one annual event in district 1. While others have both of AMSA District Project and AMSA District Gathering, District 1 combined both of them as all district 1 national team’s work plan. Sunday was chosen as the best time spent for gathering. All delegates were having fun at Lampuuk Beach, playing together and sharing experience they wanted to share. Lampuuk Beach was a must visited beach in Aceh that they will never regret. At the end of event, some delegates who were still in Banda Aceh strolled around the city, visited city sights and heritages, and tasted Aceh traditional noodle.

There were lots of fun in AD1P 2018, and lots of things to learn too! Although the aims of ADP are actually to approach and educate society, delegates also could learn many new things and expand their networking here. Many thanks for all sides who had participated in this event well, especially for the committees and delegates who have spent their time and mind. See you in AD1P next year!
