Visit to the Office of Cooperatives and UMKM in Batubara Regency by IAP USU Students: Encouraging Local Business Growth

Posted on by Hansen

In an effort to understand the dynamics of developing micro, small, and medium enterprises (UMKM), students from the Public Administration Program at Universitas Sumatera Utara visited the Office of Cooperatives and UMKM in Batubara Regency. This visit provided important insights into the office’s role in supporting over 8,000 UMKM spread across 12 districts in the region.

The Office of Cooperatives and UMKM in Batubara Regency is committed to providing guidance and outreach to small business owners. One of their primary focuses is to assist in promoting and marketing UMKM products. Through various programs, the office aims to help UMKM in Batubara “level up” and compete in an increasingly competitive market.

During the visit, we learned that the office also conducts training on digital finance. Additionally, they assist entrepreneurs with the necessary permits, such as the Business Identification Number (NIB), halal certification, BPOM, and food safety outreach.

The governance activities carried out by the Office of Cooperatives and UMKM are routine, recognizing the importance for business owners to compete in marketing their products. However, the office faces challenges, including budget constraints and a lack of personnel to review all UMKM in Batubara.

The office also provides annual training and physical assistance. “We strive to support UMKM to grow and compete at both local and national levels,” said one of the office officials.

Potential UMKM products in Batubara Regency include songket, sambal kepah, sagon kampung, keripik gosong, and woven goods. The Office of Cooperatives and UMKM works to introduce these products through events held periodically, allowing the wider community to recognize and purchase local products.

Centers for UMKM development in Batubara Regency are not centralized in one location, but are spread across each district. For example, in the District of Lima Puluh Pesisir, there is UMKM Dangai Limonam, while in Sei Balai District, UMKM focuses on snack products.

However, challenges remain for UMKM entrepreneurs, particularly regarding operational costs and product packaging. The Office of Cooperatives and UMKM assists in packaging design, but entrepreneurs must bear the material costs themselves. This often becomes a barrier for those wishing to enhance their product’s appeal.

Regarding capital assistance, the Office of Cooperatives and UMKM provides support annually in the form of training, promotion, and equipment. This year, they are also expected to provide capital assistance. Furthermore, the office collaborates with Bank Indonesia and local companies to strengthen support for UMKM entrepreneurs.

With the introduction of new regulations such as Law No. 7 of 2021, which governs capital and UMKM criteria, the Office of Cooperatives and UMKM offers outreach to entrepreneurs to help them adapt to regulatory changes and the dynamic market conditions.

This visit demonstrates that the Office of Cooperatives and UMKM in Batubara Regency is committed to continuously supporting the development of UMKM in the region. Although challenges persist, their efforts in providing training, assistance, and product promotion are expected to encourage the growth of local businesses and enhance the competitiveness of UMKM products in Batubara at both national and international levels.

Peycam expressed his admiration for UNAIR’s efforts and dedication to its collaboration. UNAIR’s enthusiasm to enhance its reputation was highly praised by Peycam.

“UNAIR is always obsessed with enhancing its reputation, making various efforts including improving the quality of education. If UNAIR didn’t have this obsession, our collaboration might not have continued,” he said in an exclusive interview with UNAIR NEWS.

AIIOC Potential

Peycam is confident that within the next five to ten years, AIIOC will gain global recognition. An expanding AIIOC will facilitate the exchange of knowledge between countries.

“If people want to learn about Europe, Europeans can come to AIIOC without Indonesians needing to go to Europe. Although this requires a long process, I believe with cooperation, it is not impossible,” he emphasized.

Universitas Sumatera Utara, Humbang Hasundutan Regency: Advancing disaster mitigation through collaborative initiatives

Posted on by Tabitha Riyani Simbolon

Humbang Hasundutan (Humbahas) Regency is one of the disaster-prone areas in North Sumatera. The area is prone to landslides, which are exacerbated by deforestation and prolonged rainfall. The Humbahas region has a high rainfall intensity with a poor surface drainage system. This triggers hydrometeorological disasters in the form of floods and landslides. From these disasters, the society felt great losses such as infrastructure damage in residential areas, damage to plantations, rice fields, and crop failure. As an anticipatory step and implementation of the Tri Dharma of Higher Education, Lembaga Pengabdian Pada Masyarakat Universitas Sumatera Utara (LPPM USU) organizes disaster mitigation and adaptation activities through the Society Service Program (PKM) thematic disaster mitigation and adaptation.

The program, launched on July 4th, 2024, at the Bukit Barisan Hall in Humbahas Regency, represents a crucial collaboration between Lembaga Pengabdian Pada Masyarakat (LPPM) USU and the Humbahas regional government. This initiative aims to equip the region with the tools and knowledge to effectively minimize the impact of disasters. Tua Marsatti Marbun as a representative of the Humbahas Regency government stated about this launch signifies a commitment to provide stakeholders involved in the disaster mitigation program with the necessary resources and infrastructur.

The program operates under two distinct schemes: the PKM Assisted Village Program and the PKM Regular Mono Year. The PKM Assisted Village Program takes a long-term approach, providing multi-year support to designated villages. Conversely, the PKM Regular Mono Year program focuses on short-term interventions. Dr. Oding Effendy, the implementing coordinator of the disaster mitigation thematic activities, elaborated that both programs will run for seven months each year, spanning a total of nine locations and encompassing a range of activities.

The program tackles disaster preparedness on multiple fronts. One key activity involves the formation of Disaster Resilient Villages (DESTANA) which empowers communities to manage potential threats, environmental conservation (tree planting), economic development (sustainable tourism), and public health improvement. Furthermore, a unique initiative involves designing disaster mitigation gymnastics for elementary school students, aiming to instill a culture of preparedness from a young age.

The program launch fostered a vibrant discussion with Ir. Yusak Maryunianta, M.P. (Chief Executive of PKM Assisted Village), Dra. Fatma Wardy Lubis, M.A. (Chief Executive of PKM Regular Mono Year), Benthon Juber Lumban Gaol, ST., M.Si. (Head of BPBD North Sumatera), and Manutur Parulian Naibaho, S.Sos., S.H., M.Si. (Head of Prevention and Preparedness). One crucial concern raised was the need to address the underlying economic factors that contribute to environmental destruction. Recognizing this, USU emphasizes a holistic approach, extending its support beyond disaster mitigation and adaptation to encompass local economic development initiatives. By empowering communities economically, the program aims to reduce the pressure on natural resources driven by poverty. Through this activity, it is hoped that the entire implementation team and also the stakeholders involved will be able to realize each planned program so that it is right on target according to the needs of the society in Humbang Hasundutan Regency.

FISIP USU, TULAR NALAR MAFINDO organise an Academy Digital Lansia (ADL) class to digitally empower the elderly

Posted on by Anastasya Hasugian

To assist the elderly to be empowered by the internet, Tular Nalar 3.0 Mafindo with support from Google.org in collaboration with FISIP USU held an ACADEMI DIGITAL LANSIA (ADL) held at the Catholic Church ST. Fransiskus Asisi, Pasar 6 Padang Bulan, Medan City. This Akademi Digital Lansia (ADL) is a digital literacy training activity aimed at the elderly so that they are empowered to use digital media (internet).

The Central Statistics Agency (BPS) reports that the life expectancy (UHH) of the Indonesian population will reach 73.93 years in 2023. Based on the 2023 Elderly Population Statistics published by the Central Statistics Agency (BPS), as many as 49.56% of the elderly already use gadgets. However, only a fifth have access to and use the internet. Elderly people, including vulnerable groups, need to be well-informed so that they are not easily fooled by digital fraud and the spread of fake news which is currently on the rise, especially ahead of a large-scale disaster, namely the regional head elections to be held in November 2024.

This activity was opened by RP.David D. Barus OFMConv. as Pastor of the Catholic Church of ST. Fransiskus Asisi Padang Bulan. In his remarks, Pastor David expressed his support for implementing the Academi Digital Lansia which is also considered important now. He expressed his full support for implementing this Academi Digital Lansia which is also expected to be carried out repeatedly and reach more elderly people from a wider range of areas, especially in the ST. Fransiskus Asisi Padang Bulan.

Also giving a speech, Yovita Sabarina Sitepu S.Sos., M.Si., as PIC Tular Nalar FISIP USU explained the Academi Digital Lansia that will be implemented along with a brief explanation of the assistance that will be carried out online after this Academi Digital Lansia activity is carried out. “The elderly are one of the groups that are vulnerable to becoming victims of digital crime today, therefore this activity aims to help improve the digital literacy skills of the Indonesian people, especially among the elderly,” he explained.

On a separate occasion, Mafindo Tular Nalar 3.0 Program Manager, Santi Indra Astuti, gave a speech and explained that Tular Nalar, which has been present since 2020, aims to instill the habit of critical thinking among the public while facing the upcoming information flow. “Currently we are dealing with the swift flow of thoughts and the flow of information that is challenging during the election period, so that is our current challenge,” she said in the welcome video.

The Academi Digital Lansia is carried out using the microteaching method, where one facilitator assists 10 participants, namely the elderly. The elderly are invited to recognize the challenges of the elderly in the digital world with BERBUDI (Bersama Bugar Digital). They are also introduced to fraud prevention measures with the concept of WAKUNCAR [Waspadai (Beware), Kunjungi (Visit), Cari (Search)], where in this segment the elderly are invited to analyze news with the ABCD game or Amati, Baca, Cari, Diskusikan (Observe, Read, Check the Facts, and Discuss). In this segment, the elderly are given the opportunity to discuss and analyze the news previously provided by the facilitator.

In addition to playing to discuss and analyze the news, the elderly are also introduced to the chaos that is usually found in content circulating on social media, namely Kacau IDE (Kacau Isi, Kacau Diri, and Kacau Emosi). At the end of the segment, the elderly and all facilitators held a cellphone exercise guided by the companion. The series of events went smoothly and enthusiastically.

Yovita said that, based on their observations during the activity, participants enthusiastically shared stories about fraud that happened to their acquaintances and misinformation that they received during the last presidential election season. Even during the “senam ponsel”, the elderly were so enthusiastic that the exercise was repeated twice. “Next week, during the mentoring activity, hopefully the participants will be able to apply the Wakuncar technique when receiving suspicious information either from WhatsApp, Facebook, or SMS,” she explained.
