MENUJU SEKOLAH TAHAN BENCANA: PENGUATAN LITERASI DAN SIMULASI SATUAN PENDIDIKAN AMAN BENCANA DI WILAYAH RAWAN BANJIR

Abstrak: Bencana alam merupakan ancaman nyata bagi keberlangsungan proses pendidikan, terutama di wilayah yang memiliki tingkat kerentanan tinggi. Sekolah sebagai institusi pendidikan formal memiliki peran strategis dalam membentuk budaya sadar bencana melalui penguatan literasi kebencanaan dan keterampilan mitigasi risiko sejak dini. Program Pengabdian kepada Masyarakat ini bertujuan untuk meningkatkan kapasitas kesiapsiagaan warga sekolah, khususnya pengetahuan, keterampilan, dan kepercayaan diri dalam menghadapi situasi darurat, melalui penerapan prinsip Satuan Pendidikan Aman Bencana (SPAB). Kegiatan dilaksanakan dalam tiga tahapan persiapan, pelaksanaan, dan evaluasi dengan metode ceramah interaktif, diskusi partisipatif, dan simulasi penyelamatan diri. Hasil evaluasi menunjukkan bahwa 78% peserta mengalami peningkatan pemahaman terhadap materi kebencanaan, 65% mampu mengidentifikasi jalur evakuasi dan titik kumpul, serta 52% merasa lebih percaya diri menghadapi keadaan darurat. Antusiasme peserta dan dukungan pihak sekolah menjadi faktor pendukung utama, sedangkan keterbatasan waktu menjadi kendala dalam pendalaman praktik. Rekomendasi yang dihasilkan meliputi integrasi SPAB ke dalam kurikulum, penyediaan sarana evakuasi dan alat keselamatan yang memadai, serta penguatan kolaborasi lintas sektor. Program ini berpotensi direplikasi di berbagai satuan pendidikan sebagai model penguatan kesiapsiagaan bencana berbasis sekolah.Abstract: This Community Service Program (PkM) aimed to strengthen school preparedness for disasters by implementing the Safe School Program (SPAB) at SMA Negeri 2 Kupang Timur, Kupang Regency, East Nusa Tenggara. The school is located in a flood-prone area but lacks a disaster curriculum, mitigation infrastructure, and preparedness training. The program was implemented in three phases: preparation, implementation, and evaluation. Methods included lectures, participatory discussions, and self-rescue simulations during earthquake scenarios. The implementation phase demonstrated strong enthusiasm from students and teachers and solid support from the school and local government. Evaluation results showed that 78% of participants improved their understanding of SPAB content, 65% could identify evacuation routes and assembly points, and 52% felt more confident in responding to emergencies at school. Time constraints were noted as a limitation in delivering in-depth practice and discussion. Recommendations include integrating SPAB into the school curriculum, improving safety infrastructure and equipment, and fostering multi-sectoral collaboration. The program is expected to be a replicable model for promoting disaster awareness and preparedness in other schools

Effects of Cigarette Smoke on Adipose and Skeletal Muscle Tissue:: In Vivo and In Vitro Studies

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), often caused by smoking, is a chronic lung disease with systemic manifestations including metabolic comorbidities. This study investigates adaptive and pathological alterations in adipose and skeletal muscle tissue following cigarette smoke exposure using in vivo and in vitro models. Mice were exposed to cigarette smoke or air for 72 days and the pre-adipose cell line 3T3-L1 was utilized as an in vitro model. Cigarette smoke exposure decreased body weight, and the proportional loss in fat mass was more pronounced than the lean mass loss. Cigarette smoke exposure reduced adipocyte size and increased adipocyte numbers. Adipose macrophage numbers and associated cytokine levels, including interleukin-1β, interleukine-6 and tumor necrosis factor-α were elevated in smoke-exposed mice. Muscle strength and protein synthesis signaling were decreased after smoke exposure; however, muscle mass was not changed. In vitro studies demonstrated that lipolysis and fatty acid oxidation were upregulated in cigarette smoke-exposed pre-adipocytes. In conclusion, cigarette smoke exposure induces a loss of whole-body fat mass and adipose atrophy, which is likely due to enhanced lipolysis

Human resources for health policies: a critical component in health policies

In the last few years, increasing attention has been paid to the development of health policies. But side by side with the presumed benefits of policy, many analysts share the opinion that a major drawback of health policies is their failure to make room for issues of human resources. Current approaches in human resources suggest a number of weaknesses: a reactive, ad hoc attitude towards problems of human resources; dispersal of accountability within human resources management (HRM); a limited notion of personnel administration that fails to encompass all aspects of HRM; and finally the short-term perspective of HRM. There are three broad arguments for modernizing the ways in which human resources for health are managed: • the central role of the workforce in the health sector; • the various challenges thrown up by health system reforms; • the need to anticipate the effect on the health workforce (and consequently on service provision) arising from various macroscopic social trends impinging on health systems. The absence of appropriate human resources policies is responsible, in many countries, for a chronic imbalance with multifaceted effects on the health workforce: quantitative mismatch, qualitative disparity, unequal distribution and a lack of coordination between HRM actions and health policy needs. Four proposals have been put forward to modernize how the policy process is conducted in the development of human resources for health (HRH): • to move beyond the traditional approach of personnel administration to a more global concept of HRM; • to give more weight to the integrated, interdependent and systemic nature of the different components of HRM when preparing and implementing policy; • to foster a more proactive attitude among human resources (HR) policy-makers and managers; • to promote the full commitment of all professionals and sectors in all phases of the process. The development of explicit human resources policies is a crucial link in health policies and is needed both to address the imbalances of the health workforce and to foster implementation of the health services reforms

From staff-mix to skill-mix and beyond: towards a systemic approach to health workforce management

Throughout the world, countries are experiencing shortages of health care workers. Policy-makers and system managers have developed a range of methods and initiatives to optimise the available workforce and achieve the right number and mix of personnel needed to provide high-quality care. Our literature review found that such initiatives often focus more on staff types than on staff members' skills and the effective use of those skills. Our review describes evidence about the benefits and pitfalls of current approaches to human resources optimisation in health care. We conclude that in order to use human resources most effectively, health care organisations must consider a more systemic approach - one that accounts for factors beyond narrowly defined human resources management practices and includes organisational and institutional conditions

Mutations affecting the actin regulator WD repeat–containing protein 1 lead to aberrant lymphoid immunity

Background: The actin-interacting protein WD repeat–containing protein 1 (WDR1) promotes cofilin-dependent actin filament turnover. Biallelic WDR1 mutations have been identified recently in an immunodeficiency/autoinflammatory syndrome with aberrant morphology and function of myeloid cells. Objective: Given the pleiotropic expression of WDR1, here we investigated to what extent it might control the lymphoid arm of the immune system in human subjects. Methods: Histologic and detailed immunologic analyses were performed to elucidate the role of WDR1 in the development and function of B and T lymphocytes. Results: Here we identified novel homozygous and compound heterozygous WDR1 missense mutations in 6 patients belonging to 3 kindreds who presented with respiratory tract infections, skin ulceration, and stomatitis. In addition to defective adhesion and motility of neutrophils and monocytes, WDR1 deficiency was associated with aberrant T-cell activation and B-cell development. T lymphocytes appeared to develop normally in the patients, except for the follicular helper T-cell subset. However, peripheral T cells from the patients accumulated atypical actin structures at the immunologic synapse and displayed reduced calcium flux and mildly impaired proliferation on T-cell receptor stimulation. WDR1 deficiency was associated with even more severe abnormalities of the B-cell compartment, including peripheral B-cell lymphopenia, paucity of B-cell progenitors in the bone marrow, lack of switched memory B cells, reduced clonal diversity, abnormal B-cell spreading, and increased apoptosis on B-cell receptor/Toll-like receptor stimulation. Conclusion: Our study identifies a novel role for WDR1 in adaptive immunity, highlighting WDR1 as a central regulator of actin turnover during formation of the B-cell and T-cell immunologic synapses
