Transformation of Parking Area

Water-Conscious through Rainwater Harvesting

The transformation from a car parking area at the entrance of ITB Ganesha campus into a pedestrian-friendly space is a remarkable shift that not only alters the physical landscape but also enhances the overall urban environment. This conversion, driven by growing emphasis on sustainable urban development, aims to reclaim space for people.

Once dominated by vehicles, the area now welcomes pedestrians with widened sidewalks, greenery, and public seating.

This transformation fosters a sense of community and encourages active transportation, reducing traffic congestion and pollution. It also serves as a reminder of the evolving priorities in ITB campus, putting people and their well-being at the forefront. As car parking areas evolve into pedestrian havens, they become hubs for social interaction, recreation, and a symbol of a more sustainable and human-centric urban future.

In 2022, ITB build rainwater harvesting facility in ITB Ganesha (main campus). Rainwater harvesting is a sustainable and environmentally responsible practice that involves the collection and storage of rainwater for various purposes. This simple yet effective technique has gained prominence as a valuable means of conserving water resources and reducing the burden on conventional water supply systems. Through the installation of rainwater harvesting systems, such as storage tanks, rainwater can be captured during precipitation events and later used for a range of non-potable purposes, including irrigation, flushing toilets, and even groundwater recharge. This not only eases the demand on freshwater sources but also helps mitigate the impact of urban runoff and flooding, as well as promoting self-sufficiency in water supply, particularly in regions facing water scarcity.

Addition of Wheelchair Ramp and Guide Blocks The addition of a wheelchair ramp of old buildings and guide blocks represents a crucial step toward sustainability and inclusivity in ITB campus. In retrofitting these historic structures, we not only ensure that everyone, regardless of their mobility, can access the building but also breathe new life into an architectural relic. By providing a means for individuals with disabilities to enter and enjoy the building, we foster a more inclusive society and uphold the principles of equal access and social integration. This sustainable upgrade minimizes the need for costly demolitions or reconstructions and preserves the historical and cultural value of the site, showcasing that we can harmoniously merge the past with the present for a more accessible and eco-conscious future. It’s a testament to our commitment to sustainability, which extends beyond environmental concerns to encompass social equity and heritage preservation.

ITB Campus Task Force on Preventing and Addressing Sexual Harassment

In 2022, ITB formed a task force dedicated to preventing and addressing sexual harassment in campus. This task force is an essential component of any educational institution’s commitment to fostering a safe and inclusive environment. The task force comprises a diverse group of individuals, including faculty members, counsellors, administrators, legal experts, and students, all working collectively to develop strategies for the prevention, education, and effective response to instances of sexual harassment on campus.

The task force is responsible for the design and implementation of policies and procedures to prevent such incidents and to handle them appropriately if they occur. This includes providing support and resources for survivors, conducting fair and impartial investigations, and enforcing sanctions against perpetrators when necessary.

By proactively addressing this

issue, educational institutions not only empower survivors but also send a clear message that they are dedicated to creating an environment in which all members can learn, work, and thrive without fear of harassment or discrimination.

NO POVERTY SLUM-UPGRADING STUDY ITB has a publication indexed by scopus discussing to what extent the programs of slums and squatters upgrading contribute to the improvement of slum dwellers’ livelihood, with Bandung City as the case study.

Based on a longitudinal study on such programs in Bandung, this study aims to compare the’ programs’ result of the community five years or more after the project completion. The paper argues that while physical improvements did not show any direct significant contribution to poverty reduction (both during and by the end of project life), the physical facilities that it developed, (which are of much better qualities and thus last much longer than facilities built in the second and third generation that are incorporated social and economic conditions), indirectly enable the social economic improvement of slum-dwellers in the long term.

ITB ACCEPTED NEW STUDENTS FROM UNDERDEVELOPED AREAS

FINANCIAL LITERACY AND THE USE OF FINTECH Family Welfare Empowerment (PKK) is a community organization that involves women’s participation in efforts to realize family welfare. Based on the OJK survey in 2019, women’s financial literacy index is low compared to men. One strategy for increasing financial inclusion is to increase financial literacy and optimize the use of fintech. Financial literacy and fintech have become tools to achieve effective and efficient individual finance. This community service activity of ITB aims to increase the knowledge and understanding of PKK member mothers about financial literacy and fintech in order to be able to manage family finances well in order to realize family financial resilience and become a driving community for increasing financial literacy and optimizing the use of fintech for the surrounding community.

COMMUNITY SERVICE FUNDING

ITB launched the ITB Independent Selection 3T Regional Support Program scholarship in 2022. Through this scholarship, ITB provides support scholarships for prospective students who come from 3T regions (underdeveloped, frontier, and outermost) in the form of 100% tuition scholarships, or students do not pay tuition at all and are exempt from Institutional Development Fees. In addition, ITB received 183 students who received KIP-K scholarships from the government. This number is 16% of the total students accepted through the ITB 2022 Independent Selection route.

NO POVERTY ITB Initiated Eights Actions for Handling the Cianjur Earthquake ITB (Institut Teknologi Bandung) carried out eight actions for handling the Cianjur Earthquake. The eight actions consisted of: 1. There was a team that assessed the site and established six seismographs to monitor potential aftershocks.

2. Apart from ITB, Salman Charity House team also collaborated to provide assistance.

3. Construction of temporary shelter using the Tunnel Shelter method made from local materials, namely bamboo. This method is the result of collaboration with the ITB Assisted Village activist team in Ciranjang Eko Santoso.

4. ITB PPMB team conducted a field analysis of the vulnerability level of public buildings in Cianjur, so that buildings that were still suitable for use could be used properly again.

5. The demand for medicines was quite high, considering the large number of injured victims who needed treatment. Henceforth, SF-ITB declared their promise to meet the needs of medicines and helped with Trauma Healing.

6. ITB Directorate of Student Affairs and ITB NR Dirdik plan to encourage students to contribute to helping the victims of the disaster via assignments and volunteering.

ITB NR Dirdik gathered 267 students outside ITB who participated in the Merdeka Belajar program to help.

7. ITB KMPA (Nature Conservation Student Association), agreed to provide clean water using IGW Water Ultrafiltration Membrane made by Prof. I Gede Wenten. They also asked for the provision of clean water prepared by Dr. Dwina Roosmini ‘s team (ITB PSLH).

8. ITB Institute for Research and Community Services funded and managed support for assistance on-site with ITB BPUDL.

LAPI Foundation had also conveyed their commitment to support the management of the earthquake’s impact in Cianjur carried out by ITB. It is hoped that the synergy done by various communities in ITB can help those affected by the earthquake in Cianjur.

NO POVERTY Decentralization of Safe Drinking Water In research to provide one of basic needs: water, the Newton Fund-Institutional Link funded that program which involved researchers from the Faculty of Civil and Environmental Engineering together with researchers from the University of Manchester. They developed a prototype high-rate water treatment plant (HR-WTP) with a capacity of up to 2 L/sec. This decentralized HR-WTP is able to serve around 100 families for basic drinking water needs. The HR-WTP was tested in Citeureup Village, Cimahi City, and was able to produce drinking water with quality that meets the health requirements regulated by the Minister of Health.

In 2020, a survey carried out in Citeureup Village, Cimahi, involving 120 households, revealed that the majority of participants depended on groundwater and bottled water as their primary sources of water.

They were willing to pay rough-

vey highlights the community's readiness to embrace alternative water sources and participate in drinking water supply initiatives. If the primary barrier to widespread acceptance of decentralized SPAM is the public's perception, a range of educational and behavior modification strategies and programs can be introduced to address this issue.

The pressing objective of achieving SDG 6.1, which pertains to ensuring access to safe drinking water, has gained even more significance due to the pandemic and other disasters. These events have underscored the importance of having a robust drinking water supply system in place. Decentralized systems offer a relatively swift rollout and the capacity to scale up water provision during health or environmental emergencies. Consequently, it is imperative to explore and enhance diverse decentralized solutions, as achieving universal access to a centralized pipe network SPAM within the next seven years seems unattainable.

ZERO HUNGER CREATING FOOD VALUE CHAIN TRANSFORMATIONS THROUGH REGIONAL FOOD HUBS ITB together with UNPAD has an article that synthesizes the evidence on food value chains (FVCs) and regional food hubs (RFHs) through a systematic literature review and suggests future research directions based on the gaps identified in the review. FVCs are an innovative solution to improve the skills and capacity of smallholder farmers through collaborative networks that can match the functions of RFHs. RFHs connect local producers and customers by operating a business based on social entrepreneurship and ecological approaches to increase local economic viability and the sustainability of agriculture products. FVCs and RFHs are designed to respond to supply chain insecurity with value-based approaches in order to achieve sustainable nutrition for the local community.

Further research on FVCs and

RFHs emphasizes that the business model of regional development in developing countries can improve food security sustainability based on social entrepreneurship, and emphasizes the environmental aspect that it can use to support the sustainability of developing countries local food.

HYDROPONIC TECHNOLOGY FOR VEGETABLE PLANTS TO PROMOTE AGRIBUSINESS ON MARATUA ISLAND Maratua Island is in Maratua District, Berau Regency, East Kalimantan Province. Maratua Island is included in the border zone, or underdeveloped, frontier, and outermost areas (3T).

Maratua Island is a popular underwater tourism site and offers excellent potential for the industry. A growing population and number of tourists necessitate the supply of food ingredients, especially fresh and high-quality veggies. Vegetables are still sent to Maratua Island from other right now. Sandy soil and rock-covered surfaces impede the growth of land-based vegetable production activities.

ITB suggested the application of hydroponic technology to grow vegetable crops, provisioning the quality of vegetable products, improve farmer and their family skills, and expand capacity through improved knowledge

and skills in agribusiness managemenet and the marketing of agricultural products. The approach was carried out through discussions, training, and the creation of yard-based hydroponic activities demonstration plots with partner members of the tourism awareness group (POKDARWIS) and the empowerment of family welfare group (PKK). ITB also utillized the abundant sources local material for hydroponic plants. Activities that have been carried out include: application of hydroponic technology (training on creating hydroponic installations, training on managing hydroponic nutrients, training on planting hydroponic vegetable plants, maintenance of hydroponic plants, and harvesting hydroponic plants), capacity building in the form of increasing knowledge and skills in agribusiness management, and marketing of agricultural products (discussion and training on the significance of group marketing).

ZERO HUNGER SITH-ITB HOLDS A GUEST LECTURE DISCUSSING THE CHALLENGES OF REALIZING FOOD SECURITY The issue of Indonesian food security is currently starting to heat up. In this regard, students are expected to continue their efforts to apply the knowledge they have acquired at college to the wider community. This was stated by Dr. Edwin Utama, MM, as a resource person and member of the SITH Advisory Board in the SITH ITB guest lecture at GKU 2 ITB Jatinangor Campus.

One of the critical problems experienced by Indonesian farmers is that the wheels of the economy are not turning properly, so farmers suffer losses.

This is due to the characteristics of perishable and diverse harvests as well as losses in each long supply chain in terms of quality and quantity. The need for innovative technology to address broad problems in Indonesia continues to be encouraged, starting from the moment the harvest is picked until it reaches consumers.

ITB FOOD ENGINEERING STUDENTS CREATE PLANT-BASED JERKY FOR HYPERTENSION SUFFERERS Three students from the ITB Food Engineering Study Program, under the guidance of Dr. Ir. Dianika Lestari, S.T., M.T., won the 2nd Winner and Best Innovation Idea positions in the 2nd SEAFAST-Nestlé FPDC 2022 competition. The competition is the result of a collaboration between the Faculty of Agricultural Technology, Bogor Agricultural Institute (FATETA IPB), and the Food Science and Technology Student Association (HIMITEPA), together with SEAFAST and Nestle. This year, FPDC raised the theme “Preventing Indonesia’s Major Health Issues through the Development of Plant-Based Food and Beverage for Teens, Adults, and Seniors”.

Based on this theme, the three of them innovated to make beef jerky made from spirulina microalgae, which was named

Spirulina Garlic Jerky (SPIGAKY). The basic ingredient, spirulina, was chosen because its protein content is so high that it can compete with meat. Apart from that, the spirulina cultivation process is also easy, so the raw material’s sustainability is more guaranteed than red meat The combination of vegetable raw materials in the form of spirulina and garlic is suitable for sufferers of high blood pressure. High blood pressure, also known as hypertension, is one of the most common diseases in Indonesia. If not treated and controlled properly, high blood pressure can trigger other, more serious complications. Therefore, they see this as an opportunity to innovate products for people with high blood pressure.

The SPIGAKY product, the innovation of Food Engineering students, was exhibited at the Food Ingredient Asia event, which took place at the Jakarta International Expo on September 7–9, 2022.

Food Ingredient Asia is the largest food ingredient exhibition in ASEAN, attended by hundreds of food ingredient industry players.

From there, they get a lot of input and feedback from various parties regarding their products.

GOOD HEALTH AND WELL-BEING VACCINE COLD CHAIN MANAGEMENT AND COLD STORAGE TECHNOLOGY

KITABELAJAR: SMART KIOSK FOR THE ELDERLY COMMUNITY

The outbreaks of infectious diseases that spread across countries have generally existed for centuries. An example is the occurrence of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, which led to the loss of lives and economic depreciation. One of the essential ways of handling the spread of viruses is the discovery and administration of vaccines. ITB discusses how vaccine cold chain management and cold storage technology can address the challenges of vaccination programs. It examines different systems for preserving vaccines in either liquid or frozen form to help ensure that they are not damaged during distribution from manufacturing facilities.

The novelty of this study is to explore cold storage technology for a faster and more comprehensive vaccine distribution hence it is expected to be one of the reference for stakeholders.

As a group that is no longer productive, educational interventions are considered capable of improving the quality of life of the elderly. Therefore, Kios Pintar “KitaBelajar” is present as a form of self-service technology (SST) to help the elderly with independent learning. The Smart Kiosk “KitaBelajar” was donated to the Kasepuhan Raden Rahmat Islamic Boarding School in Semarang Regency. The idea of the design was motivated by the fact that the elderly group in Indonesia will reach 20% of the total population by 2045. The design of the Smart Kiosk “KitaBelajar” is adapted to the characteristics of the elderly based on ergonomic design principles.

Assessment of the character of the elderly is measured from physical, psychological, cognitive, motor abilities and limitations, and others. This characteristic specification is used to distinguish the needs of the

QUALITY EDUCATION THE STRATEGY OF SOFT SKILLS DEVELOPMENT IN HIGHER EDUCATION The main ingredients for a nation’s development are high-quality human resources. Not only do they have excellent technical skills, but also excellent soft skills. Communication skills, self-management, innovation, and/or creativity are important soft skills, among others, necessary to be able to respond to the workplace.

Higher education is therefore committed to the challenges of giving the students all the necessary soft skills. The study of ITB uses a mixed technique and a case study to describe the approach to developing soft skills in higher education. The results are used to inform the development of the most crucial soft skills for ITB graduates. All of this is based on the fact that graduates must have a balance between soft skills and hard skills that will be useful for their lives when they enter society.

GENDER EQUALITY METHODS FOR STUDYING GROUP LOANS, JOIN RESPONSIBILITY, AND WOMEN’S EMPOWERMENT World researchers have studied various phenomena of loans provided through financial institutions, including a loan strategy with Group Loans. Group Loans are money loans made by a group of people to a microfinance institution. Based on a case study in Nganjuk, East Java, Indonesia, ITB investigated the phenomena of Group Loans. Group Loans customers in the community are primarily women, and they are generally housewives without having a fixed income unless they receive a stipend from their husbands.

Unfortunately, these group loans potentially experience problems, especially in terms of loan payments. Group members who are not paying debts, wasting money, and borrowing from numerous financial institutions to pay off prior obligations have all been recognised as issues.

ITB examined methods to anticipate and minimize the risk of Group Loans through the implementation of women’s empowerment activities. The proposed method is deemed effective to assist women in avoiding debt owing to Group Loans. Through this method, they have formed a community, and through this community, they can carry out productive activities. The productive activities provide an alternative for mothers to play an active role and carry out activities that can help them fill their activities with financially positive activities and become an alternative for carrying out Women’s Empowerment activities that entangle Group Loans.

This study is expected to be one of the solutions to enhancing women’s roles, particularly in minimising the risk of debt through productive activities.

CLEAN WATER AND SANITATION PHOSPHONIUM-BASED IONIC LIQUID TOWARDS THE ADSORPTION OF PB(II) TO GENERATE CLEAN WATER Adsorption has been widely used in waste water treatment due to its simplicity and cost-effective process. One of the popular adsorbent was silica due to their advantageous properties.

Immobilizing additive onto particular adsorbent is one of the way to enhance adsorption capacity. Immobilizing ionic liquid (IL) onto silica-based support could alleviate the drawbacks of IL and enhance the adsorption capacity. Thus, silica-based materials, silica and mesostructured silica nanoparticle (MSN), were impregnated with a phosphonium-based ionic liquid (IL), trioctyldodecylphosphonium bromide (P8,8,8,12Br), which was designated as IL@SIL and IL@ MSN. The structural variation of the support greatly impact the adsorbent performance. The results showed that IL@MSN with superior surface properties ex-

hibit a faster reaction kinetic and lower thermodynamic barrier for the adsorption of Pb(II). Both adsorbents followed a pseudo second-order kinetic and chemically adsorbed Pb(II). IL@ MSN showed a higher adsorption capacity in both batch and column adsorption than that of IL@SIL. The equilibrium data of both adsorbents fitted well with the Freundlich isotherm model with maximum adsorption capacity of 256.4 and 142.9 mg g−1 for IL@MSN and IL@SIL, respectively. In agreement with the batch experiment, IL@MSN showed a higher adsorption capacity in column adsorption than that of IL@SIL (325.6 and 242.2, respectively).

ESTABLISHMENT OF WATER QUALITY ANALYSIS CENTER IN INDONESIA ITB and PT Coway International Indonesia worked together to plan the development of the water quality lab. ITB is dedicated to helping communities, the nation, and knowledge in all ways as a research and educational institution. In Indonesia, getting access to clean drinking water continues to be a major problem. The majority of homes use groundwater, some of which have high iron content.

As a result, Prof. Wenten was pleased with the collaboration between ITB and PT Coway International Indonesia to create a water map for a variety of raw water studies. Additionally, he believes that the water map will provide comprehensive details about the various types of raw water and the proper water treatment. In addition, the relationship extends beyond the lab to the realm of education, specifically providing ITB with Coway scholarships.

CLEAN WATER FOR MAMUJU: ITB AND UNSULBAR CARRY OUT KKN TO BUILD VILLAGES KKN is a community service program that, in this case, was funded by the ITB Institute for Research and Community Service (LPPM ITB). KKN took place in Tappalang Hamlet, Tampalang Village, Mamuju Regency, West Sulawesi. The basic problem that is still faced by the surrounding community is the availability of clean water. Through ITB KKN activities, it is expected to be able to map the distribution of springs, compare the quality and quantity of water sources, and build water capture buildings and transmission systems so that the needs of clean water and drinking water for the community in Tampalang Village, Mamuju Regency, are fulfilled throughout the year. ITB also collaborates with the University of West Sulawesi (Unsulbar) to make this program a success. The team plans to build a clean water supply system with the application of appropriate technology that is run communally.

CLEAN WATER AND SANITATION Harvesting Rainwater Program to Provide Clean Water in Cianjur Citarum River Watershed (DAS) is the biggest and longest watershed in the Province of West Java, with a primary river length of about 269 km. One area that is also part of the Citarum watershed is the Cianjur Regency area. Based on monthly regional rainfall data in the Central Citarum watershed, this region has a monsoon climate type which is characterized by two peaks of rain concentrated in the wet months, namely October to May, and has relatively little rainfall, namely below 100 mm/month , in the dry months or from June to September. Based on the results of monitoring field conditions, information was obtained that some people in Cianjur Regency still do not have access to clean water with the quantity, quality and continuity in accordance with Minister of Health Regulation No. 492 of 2010 concerning Drinking Water Quality Requirements.

The prolonged dry season has caused residents in six villages in Cianjur Regency, West Java to experience a crisis in the availability of raw water, so that residents are forced to use water from the Cisalak River whose quality does not meet quality standards to meet their bathing, washing and toilet (MCK) needs.

In order to answer these problems, ITB, through the 2022 Citarum Harum Community Service Program, is contributing to building PAH, especially in Tarikolot Village, Cinangsi Village, Cikalongkulon District, Cianjur Regency. Rainwater Collection (PAH) is the process of collecting rainwater and this water is reused for various purposes, for example irrigation purposes (parks and green areas), washing, flushing toilets, or can also be used for drinking (after processing so that the quality meets drinking water standards) . PAHs are usually applied in areas where rainfall is more than 200 mm per year, and Indonesia is one of them.

CLEAN WATER AND SANITATION Handling the Clean Water Crisis in Grabagan According to population census data, 2021, Grabagan Village consists of 9 hamlets with a population of 5296 consisting of men and 5196 women. Of the 10,492 people in Grabagan Village, some of the population is affected by the clean water crisis, especially in the Klampeyan Hamlet area where the clean water supply depends on the water supply from mobile tanks, while the drinking water company is still very minimal considering it only flows once with a very small discharge.

Finding sources of clean water is the direct treatment required to address the clean water shortage and solve the aforementioned issues. By using geophysical technology to locate the groundwater aquifer layer based on the physical characteristics of rocks, clean water can be found. Once the water-bearing layer has been located, the next step is to produce groundwater through drilling or exploitation.

The Tuban area's water-prone zones will host this service program, which was overseen by Dr. rer.nat. Widodo, ST, MT. The lack of clean water that the residents of Tuban, East Java, are experiencing may be resolved with the deployment of suitable technology. As a reputable university in Indonesia situated in Bandung, the Bandung Institute of Technology (ITB) not only benefits the West Javan community, but it is also fitting that ITB be able to aid in the recovery of the East Javan region from the clean water crisis catastrophe. The most fundamental human need, access to clean water, must be directly impacted by the use of science and technology in society.

AFFORDABLE AND CLEAN ENERGY EFFICIENT CONVERSION SYSTEM OF MSW TO METHANOL ITB’s developed system consists of simultaneous processes, integrating hydrothermal treatment (HTT), direct chemical looping, methanol synthesis, and a combined cycle for power generation. HTT is conducted to increase the carbon content and caloric value of the MSW and to uniform the material physically.

The treated MSW flows to direct chemical looping for conversion to hydrogen while separating CO2. The produced hydrogen and CO2 are then used as feeds for methanol synthesis.

Finally, the heat involved in the system is recovered by gas and steam turbines for power generation. The integrated system can produce 41 kg/h methanol from 100 kg/h MSW and independently cover the electricity required.

CASCADING DISPOSAL FOR FOOD WASTE BY INTEGRATION OF HYDROTHERMAL CARBONIZATION AND SUPERCRITICAL WATER GASIFICATION ITB aims to achieve the efficient disposal and conversion of hydrothermal carbonization (HTC) water cascading energy recovery process by integrating HTC and SCWG. The physicochemical characteristics of hydrochars produced by HTC at different temperatures and residence times were analyzed.

HTC enhanced the efficiencies of SCWG, and less CO2 was generated. This cascading energy recovery process efficiently converts food waste to solid fuel and provides possible optimization of the SCWG process.

PREDICTING ELECTRICITY CONSUMPTION IN MICROGRID-BASED EDUCATIONAL BUILDING

HME ITB COMMUNITY SERVICE INSTALLS SOLAR PANELS AT PELESIRAN ELEMENTARY SCHOOL

Electricity demand has been disrupted in various countries during COVID-19 pandemic.

Accurate electricity consumption predictions in this highly uncertain period are crucial for building operators to improve operational planning efficacy.

Therefore, ITB has researched incorporating publicly available internet data (i.e., Google Trends, Google Mobility, and COVID-19 data) to develop accurate electricity consumption prediction models for microgrid-based buildings during the COVID 19 pandemic. For this purpose, we developed extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost), support vector regression (SVR), and autoregressive integrated moving averages with explanatory variable (ARIMAX) models. The findings show that incorporating publicly online data positively impacts prediction accuracy.

Students from the ITB Electrotechnical Association carry out community service activities by installing small-scale Solar Photovoltaic panels as an alternative source of electricity from renewable energy for Pelesiran State Elementary School, Bandung. This installation aims to introduce clean energy to the residents of Pelesiran Elementary School while saving on electricity costs for Pelesiran Elementary School. Apart from that, it is hoped that the installation of solar PV can reduce CO2 released into the atmosphere and support the Indonesian Government’s program in the transition to renewable energy. The system installed at SD Negeri Pelesiran consists of 4 solar PV panels, with each PV has a capacity of 1.9 kWp (kiloWatt Peak).

DECENT WORK AND ECONOMIC GROWTH LANDSCAPE OF TECHNOLOGY MATERIAL IN INDONESIA

MATURITY MODEL DEVELOPED FOR CONSTRUCTION PUBLIC PROCUREMENT

The Indonesian construction industry must invest more in the adoption, development, and application of technology to support the nation’s development better. Therefore, ITB has done a study to present the technological landscape of concrete and steel construction materials, providing an overall view of the historical development of the utilization, contribution, and strategy for developing future construction material technology in Indonesia. In contrast, the information data is essential to help formulate policies regarding developing and utilizing construction technology in Indonesia. Therefore, this study will map the landscape of technology material in Indonesia.

One of the resulting concerns has been the capacity of public procurement for construction works to select builders capable of delivering quality infrastructures. To address this concern, ITB presents a study to measure the maturity of procurement units for public construction projects. This study aimed to provide information for the Indonesian government in mitigating the risks related to its procurement unit’s capability of delivering its demanding infrastructure projects. This research used the maturity model developed specifically for construction public procurement. There were 48 respondents from the Ministry of Public Works and Housings’ 16 procurement units in 15 provinces. The analyses used descriptive statistics based on location groupings, overall maturity index, dimensions, and elements.

SUSTAINABLE PERFORMANCE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM IN THE CONTEXT OF A CIRCULAR ECONOMY Circular economy will play an important role at the operational level of companies. The circular economy needs to be internalized by formulating the company’s vision and mission, establishing strategic objectives and performance indicators, and creating resource allocation policies. Therefore, ITB has researched to design a sustainable performance management system for a circular economy for state-owned plantation enterprises (SOPEs). This study used a qualitative research coding method validated in three SOPEs in Indonesia. Validation was performed by comparing the framework based on the conceptual formulation with the data and information obtained during field assessment.

The research results show that the initial framework built is in accordance with the results of exploring the circular economy strategic objectives in the three SOPEs.

INDUSTRY, INNOVATION AND INFRASTRUCTURE VOLATILE STATE APPROACH AND EXPERIMENTAL STUDY The green products from biomass pyrolysis open the way for developing and applying alternative fuels and chemicals.

Until now, the pyrolysis kinetic studies are derived from a solid-state approach (based on biomass as a reactant), which still faces drawbacks. A new approach, namely volatile state approach, is then developed by ITB team with the volatile products as the main basis or reference to predict the mass fraction and yield and determine the kinetic parameters from oil palm shell pyrolysis. The predicted results were then validated with the semi-batch pyrolysis experimental study. Ultimately, this approach shows its satisfying capability to predict each BCO component mass fraction and yield, which closely fits the experimental results.

MODEL OF SUSTAINABILITY-ORIENTED OPEN INNOVATION FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF SMES (SMALL AND MEDIUM-SIZED ENTERPRISES) Due to limited resources, sustainability performance improvement is a problem for small and mediumsized enterprises (SMEs). By implementing open innovation, SMEs can use external resources to innovate in their operations, thereby increasing sustainability performance.

Therefore, ITB developed the model, which consists of eighteen constructs: sustainability performance, innovativeness, inbound open innovation, six constructs representing organizational relationship factors, and nine constructs representing knowledge factors. The research model is evaluated using Partial Least Square Structural Equation Modeling. The result shows that innovativeness positively relates to sustainability performance, and inbound open innovation has a positive relationship with innovativeness.

ITB AS THE TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT CENTER FOR THE MACHINE TOOL INDUSTRY IN INDONESIA The Ministry of Industry of the Republic of Indonesia (Kemenperin RI), together with ITB through the Faculty of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering (FTMD), came up with the idea of an Industrial Technology Development Center (PPTI) in 2011. This collaboration aims to develop machine tools nationally to meet domestic tool needs. To realize this ideal, the Indonesian government and ITB collaborated with the Government of the Republic of South Korea through MOTIE (Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy).

The main objective of this bilateral cooperation is to increase Indonesia’s ability to produce lathes independently and support the development of Indonesia’s manufacturing and machine tool industry. The MTIDC project is planned to end in December 2022. After the MTIDC project was officially handed over, FTMD ITB has become part of Indonesia’s industrial technology development center.

Two transparency indicators, namely: (i) World Governance Indicators (WGI) and (ii) Global Index of Information Transparency and Accountability (GIITA). The empirical results indicate that the transparency index from WGI is a significant determinant of economic growth, while GIITA’s index is positive but insignificant. The analysis also incorporated financial development in the model, and this variable is positive and significant Granger causes economic growth but not income inequality.

Examining Socio‐Economic Inequality Among Commuters The rapid development of urban areas in surrounding regions has led to an increasing number of commuters within and between core‐peripheral regions.

However, variation in jobs and economic levels has exacerbated the socio‐economic inequalities between metropolitan residents. Using the commuter data of the Jakarta Metropolitan Area, ITB team examines the socio‐economic disparities of commuting behavior, spatial patterns, and health between commuters with incomes lower and higher than the regional minimum wage. The result reveals a significant impact of income level on the choice of private transportation modes while not affecting the choice of public transportation modes.

This study also proposes better public transportation that is convenient, safe, and reliable to ensure a sustainable and resilient metropolitan area.

SUSTAINABLE CITIES AND COMMUNITIES Empowering Sustainable Urban Mobility: Team Narada won in the Sustainable Transportation Innovation Challenge Three graduate students from the Urban Planning department won first place in the Sustainable Transportation Innovation Challenge (STIC) on Thursday, October 20, 2022. This competition was a key component of the Sustainable Transportation Forum (STF) 2022, organized by the Ministry of Transportation of Indonesia and the Institute for Transportation and Development Policy (ITDP). The main goal of STIC was to find ideas, innovations, and solutions for improving mobility and addressing transportation issues in Indonesian cities, along with implementation plans and funding requirements.

Kelvin Narada Gunawan, Damara Kartikasari, and Wardatutu Toyyibah formed “Team Narada”, a combination of their three names. Their award-winning concept, "Bandung-Baik, Bandung Bersepeda Listrik," stemmed from the

awareness that only 99 out of every 1000 people in have access to private cars. Contrary to popular belief, modern transportation systems, such as road infrastructure, frequently favor automobile users. Furthermore, they were mindful of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), set to be achieved by 2030. Notably, the SDGs' goal of "Sustainable Cities and Communities" includes sustainable transportation, which adds gasoline to the team's vision.

Team Narada's solution is an electric bike-sharing initiative that promotes sustainable and healthy transportation, seamlessly integrated with technology. Their innovation extends beyond electric bicycles to include planning the "Bandung Baik" application and identifying suitable locations for transportation hubs. The entire system is powered by solar panels to ensure a green energy source. Their goal for 2030 is to launch 1200 electric bikes with 200 hubs across Bandung. Team Narada envisions a brighter future for Bandung, with a well-planned and sustainable transportation system.

Innovation of Model to Predict Katulampa Water Level Accurately Jakarta, the capital region of Indonesia, is experiencing recurring floods, with the most extensive recording loss as high as 350 million dollars. Katulampa Barrage’s observation of the Upper Ciliwung River plays a central role in reducing the risk of flooding in Jakarta, especially flowing through the Ciliwung River. This situation necessitates a more advanced early warning system that could provide a longer forecasting lead time. Therefore, the ITB team developed a model of Satellite remote sensing data to propose a promising utility to extend the prediction lead time of extreme events. In the case of this study, Sadewa data is used to predict the water level of Katulampa Barrage using long short-term memory (LSTM) recurrent neural networks (RNN). The results show that the model could predict the Katulampa Water Level accurately. The model presents a potential for implementation and additional lead time to increase flood mitigation preparedness.

Low-Cost Mobile Monitoring to Estimate the Pm2.5 Inhaled Dose in Urban Environment ITB team has developed a compact, low-cost, real-time mobile monitoring (MM) device for estimating the PM2.5 inhaled dose. The MM device comprises a low-cost PM2.5 sensor, temperature and humidity sensor, Wi-Fi module, and microcontroller unit. In this study, mobile monitoring was performed in several areas. The measured PM2.5 concentration was then used for estimating PM2.5 inhaled dose. The Monte Carlo technique introduced the probabilistic of body weight and PM2.5 concentration. The result shows that the coefficient of variation of the PM2.5 sensor reading was 2% on average in 2 minutes. Real-time mobile monitoring can help the government make policies and give warnings to people traveling around polluted areas.

Anaerobic Co-Digestion with Honey Processing Wastewater as Co-Substrate for Treating Synthetic Wastewater Containing Commercial Anthraquinone Dye Remazol Blue RSP Anaerobic co-digestion (ACoD) using solid waste as a co-substrate is inefficient for industrial wastewater treatment.

Therefore, the ITB team has investigated the effect of honey processing wastewater as a co-substrate on the performance of ACoD in treating synthetic wastewater containing commercial anthraquinone dye.

This study aimed to determine the optimum C: N ratio and HRT in ACoD to efficiently obtain COD removal and decolorization. Metagenomic analysis showed that the optimal ACoD configuration was suitable for both COD removal and reductive decolorization by the presence of phylum Halobacteriota (38.2 %), Euryacrhaeota (4 %), Desulfobacteriota (16 %), Actinobacteriota (10 %) and, other Bacterial phylum.

A Calculation Approach of Embodied Energy, Carbon Emission and Eco-Costs on Waste Recycled Composite Materials Numerous studies discussed recycling waste into building components, for instance, wall panels, mixed concrete material, concrete bricks, etc. Nevertheless, it brought another environmental issue due to using cement as the major ingredient.

Therefore, the ITB team has done a study that uses a calculation approach to determine the environmental impact using a manual database. It employs several environmental impact indicators such as embodied energy (EE), carbon emissions (CE) that come out during the manufacturing process of the composite material product, and the environmental costs called eco-cost (EC) as the key indicators. The result showed in terms of EE, the material manufacturing is essential to decrease the EE.

Smart Trash Can: Ganeshca People are reluctant to use trash cans whose lids still have to be opened by hand because it reduces comfort and increases the risk of contact with dirty trash.

Based on this problem, the ITB team is trying to realize one of the three principles of higher education by making a smart trash can. The trash can, named GaneSHCA ITB, makes it easy for users to throw away trash without touching the container.

The trash can can open itself from a distance of 47 cm so that contact with bacteria and viruses attached to the container can be minimized. GaneSCHA ITB was introduced to empower the community in Cibeusi Village, Jatinangor District, Sumedang Regency, West Java. The team also tried to raise public awareness regarding environmental cleanliness. The second outreach was held to educate on the principles of waste sorting and how to manage it. They also handed over ten trash bins to Cibeusi Village to be placed in various public service locations, such as schools and fields.

CLIMATE ACTION Utilization of RDCA Method to Detect and Predict Heavy Rains in Indonesia

ITB Held a Public Lecture on Climate Change and Biodiversity

Accurate weather prediction is a critical element in the pursuit of sustainability and reducing disaster risk associated with extreme weather. One of the pioneering nowcasting methods is known as the Rapidly Developing Cumulus Area (RDCA), which utilizes a specific index to assess the likelihood of heavy rainfall. Indonesia, with its unique geographical characteristics as an archipelago, presents a distinctive climate and convective system. Given these variations and specific geographical challenges, a thorough evaluation is imperative before implementing the RDCA method in Indonesia. The results of this evaluation revealed that RDCA has faster lead time and demonstrates particular accuracy in predicting lighter rainfall. This research contributes to enhancing disater preparedness and weather prediction capabilities, reducing the impact of extreme weather events on communities.

Currently, public awareness of the serious impacts of climate change still needs to be improved. One important effort to raise this awareness is to inform the public about climate change and how it affects biodiversity. The ultimate goal is to give people a better understanding of how climate change is affecting our lives. Knowledge of biodiversity also plays an important role, as it allows people to identify organisms affected by climate change. The younger generation as the nation’s successor has challenges in the future related to climate change. It is hoped that the public lecture on climate change, biodiversity, and the role of the younger generation in dealing with the impacts of climate change can increase knowledge and insight for the younger generation because this generation will later play an important role in controlling climate change.

Research in a Scientific Oration

by Prof. Ir. Djoko Santoro Abi Suroso, Ph.D., a Professor at the School of Architecture, Planning, and Policy Development (SAPPK) ITB, highlights the importance of adaptation in reducing the impact of climate change in coastal and marine areas. This adaptation involves the adjustment of both natural and human systems, especially in areas that are transitional between terrestrial and marine ecosystems, as well as aquatic spaces connecting land. The threat of climate change to coastal and marine areas is significant, with projected GDP losses reaching 115 trillion, especially in the marine and coastal sectors. marine and coastal sectors.

Prof. Djoko emphasized the importance of spatial planning as the main tool in overcoming climate change. Adaptive approaches, including the concept of Ecosystem-based Adaptation (EbA), are used to design spatial planning that focuses on utilizing biodiversity to increase adaptation capacity and support environmental sustainability. It provides direction in avoiding climate change risk zones by directing infrastructure and land use away from those zones.

To respond to the challenge of climate change, there are two main approaches, namely mitigation and adaptation. However, the reality shows that adaptation efforts lag far behind

Currently, the existing spatial planning has not adequately considered the issue of climate change, so steps need to be taken. Therefore, the Regulation of ATR/BPN 11/2021 requires an analysis of climate change adaptation and mitigation in the preparation of spatial plans.

Academics have tried to integrate the concept of adaptation into adaptive spatial planning, although efforts are needed to

make it more practical for spatial planners. Bandung Institute of Technology (ITB), with its Urban and Regional Planning (PWK) and Oceanography Study Programs and Marine Technology Cooperation Research Center at ITB Cirebon Campus, has great potential to play a role in overcoming governance, scientific base, and technological challenges related to climate change adaptation. They can also make valuable contributions to protecting coastal and marine areas, and contribute to the achievement of related Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

LIFE BELOW WATER Protecting the Coasts of Subang, West Java: Evaluating Coastal Vulnerability in the Context of Life Underwater Coastal vulnerability is a spatial concept that is critical in informed decision-making in coastal management. This study is dedicated to the comparative evaluation of the Coastal Vulnerability Index (CVI) and Weighted Coastal Vulnerability Index (CVIw) along the coastline of Subang Regency in the north of Java Island, Indonesia.

The comprehensive research encompasses a wide spectrum of coastal parameters, including factors such as including coastal relics, morphology, shoreline dynamics, tidal range, sea level elevation, wave height, land subsidence, and land usage.

Subsequently, a vulnerability map is generated, presenting varying degrees of vulnerability, categorized as low, medium, high, and very high, across the study area.

Parameter maps that assess vulnerability reveal that shoreline changes, land subsidence, and land usage have a more significant effect on vulnerability compared to other factors.

Notably, CVIw appears to be a stronger indicator for evaluating Subang’s coastal vulnerability, with a predominance of very high vulnerability.

cessing methods (fermentation, salting, and drying), not due to the characteristics of the raw materials themselves. This is evident through Principal Component Analysis (PCA). The first group of samples, including shrimp paste from Sumatra and Sumbawa, fermented with the same salt content and duration, showed preferred pH, salinity, saltiness, and taste. The second group, consisting of samples from Java and Kalimantan, dried during the same period, had a similar chemical composition, such as higher protein content, fat content, water content, total amino acids, and flavor.

Shrimp paste from Toboali, produced using Acetes japonicus and fermented for 48 hours, showed the most nutritious attributes and was preferred by panelists. These findings have significance in the context of the SGD 14 goal as they contribute to the assessment of fishery product production practices, which will ultimately promote coastal and sustainable livelihoods and management of marine resources in Indonesia.

LIFE BELOW WATER Exploring the Potential of Seaweed in Southeast Maluku: ITB’s Support for Sustainable Underwater Life Institut Teknologi Bandung (ITB), known as “Kampus Merdeka Indonesia Jaya,” recently held a socialization event on strengthening and developing seaweed cultivation. During this event, ITB also provided seaweed seedlings to two seaweed cultivation villages. Two seaweed cultivation villages, Sathean Village in Kei Kecil Subdistrict and Arso Village in Hoat Sorbay Subdistrict, both located in Southeast Maluku, received the seaweed seedlings. The three-day initiative began at Ohoi Hall in Sathean Village, Kei Kecil Subdistrict, on September 29, 2022. ITB’s involvement in this endeavor is based on information and data obtained through Internet of Things (IoT) technology and research conducted by doctoral students of the Biology Doctoral Program from the School of Life Sciences and Technology (SITH) ITB.

This research reflects ITB’s commitment to partner with the local government of Southeast Maluku in responding to problems faced by local communities.

Through the Community Service Program, focusing on bottom-up utilization of IoT data and the implementation of seaweed cultivation with the distribution of seedlings, ITB aims to enhance productivity in the Southeast Maluku Regency. This initiative is specifically aimed at seaweed farming villages in Sathean, Kei Kecil District, and Arso, Hoat Sorbay District.

During the event, the Head of Sathean Village expressed his gratitude to ITB for their support, acknowledging that the provision of seaweed seedlings was a solution to long-standing concerns faced by the community.

Furthermore, the Head of Aquaculture emphasized the importance of seaweed farmers maximizing their efforts, using these seedlings as models for

testing and demonstrating the potential of local seaweed production. Seaweed is a very important strategic commodity in Southeast Maluku, serving as a potential asset for the local area and as an important source of income for local communities. doi: 10.15578/squalen.631

LIFE BELOW WATER ITB Student Work for Clean Water: Environmentally Friendly Water Filter In several regions within the Arjawinangun District of Cirebon, the issue of limited access to clean water is still a problem that needs serious attention, especially from local governments.

Residents frequently encounter challenges such as irregular water supply, often accompanied by water that is turbid and unfit for consumption. or when it flows, the water is cloudy. in response to this critical issue, a group of Industrial Engineering students from the Institut Teknologi Bandung (ITB) located at the Cirebon Campus embarked on an innovative endeavor. Their initiative led to the creation of a prototype for a straightforward, dismantlable water purification device. This prototype was developed as part of the Idea Lab 2022 exhibition at the ITB Cirebon Campus.

The water filtration device they developed features a light-

weight plastic material, complemented by a flexible silicone top that accommodates a range of faucet sizes. Its core filtration system comprises three distinct layers, each serving a unique purpose. First, the gravel layer acts as an effective filter for larger waterborne particles. The second layer, activated carbon, serves as a powerful adsorbent, effectively capturing and eliminating harmful chemicals.

Finally, the third layer, composed of cotton, plays a crucial role in filtering out any remaining microparticles that may have bypassed the previous two filtration stages. This innovative design demonstrates a commitment to providing clean and safe drinking water, supporting the broader goal of ensuring access to clean water for all.

The extraordinary quality of its materials, particularly the utilization of high-grade activated carbon and fine cotton, differentiates this water filtering product. Although similar products are already on the market, this

water filter focuses more on the quality of the product and the materials used. Another advantage is its durability and ease of maintenance. Each filter component in this tool has a partition that makes it easier for users in the maintenance process.

It is also easily disassembled, and users can replace it with the given filter within a month.

However, because the filtration procedure remains performed manually, the filtered water from this instrument cannot be used immediately. As a result, the present development focus is on non-consumption demands.

The students who developed this instrument are looking to further improve their products, even to the point where the water that is produced is suitable for consumption. They recognize that innovation and creativity in the right field can be an alternative solution for providing clean water in Arjawinangun and its environs.

LIFE ON LAND Protecting Indonesia’s Terrestrial Ecosystems: Priority Areas for Forest Fire Mitigation ITB has research that focuses on the impact of forest fires, leading to deforestation and environmental deradation, which are essential consideration in achieving SDG 15 goals, addressing terrestrial ecosystem sustainability. The study analyzes priority areas for forest fire mitigation in Indonesia using various dimensions of data, encompassing disaster, environmental, historical, and administrative parameters. By integrating spatial data from multiple sources, this research aims to identify priority areas that require immediate action to address this issue.

The research findings reveal that areas designated as high-priority for forest fire mitigation encompass approximately 379,516 km2 across Indonesia, with a significant concentration in Sumatra, Kalimantan, and

analysis indicates that nearly 20% of these priority areas have experienced deforestation due to forest fires in the past decade. Furthermore, the study also considers legal aspects related to land use, with 5.2% and 3.9% of high-priority areas located within oil palm and mining zones.

These research results offer vital support within the framework of SDG 15, which aims to maintain terrestrial ecosystem sustainability. This information can assist policymakers in determining priority areas that require special attention in the implementation of REDD+ programs and in crafting land use policies affecting forest and land fire mitigation. These mitigation efforts have a profound impact on terrestrial ecosystems and biodiversity, making them highly relevant to achieving SDG 15’s objectives of protecting, restoring, and preserving our terrestrial ecosystems.

Increasing Productivity and Conservation of Critical Land through the Application of Agroforestry Model To increase productivity and conservation of critical land, SITH ITB conducted community service program in Cianjur Regency, Cikundal Sub Watershed, West Java. This program was carried out in two villages, Cinangsi and Mentengsari, with a focus on implementing a community-participatory agroforestry model. The selection of these two villages was based on the identification of critical land and the potential for land productivity improvement. The agroforestry model applied includes tree species like sengon and various fruits, combined with horticultural crops, and is independently managed by the local communities.

Critical land is a major challenge in the sustainability system around the Cikundul watershed. Therefore, increasing land productivity must take into

account environmental conditions, including physiography, sun exposure, and the interaction among plant components.

One of the key success factors is avoiding competition among the components of the plant model, which can reduce land productivity.

Apart from enhancing productivity, the program also emphasizes soil and water conservation (SWC) aspects. The applied plant model aims to support soil and water conservation while considering the aspirations of the community as an integral part of these efforts. This program has had a positive impact on the local communities by introducing sustainable land management models, increasing productivity, and supporting environmental conservation. Ultimately, this program makes a meaningful contribution to addressing critical land issues in the community. Thanks to the Office of the Vice Rector for Research and Innovation for supporting the funding to carry out this community service program.

LIFE ON LAND Research on Cave Paintings that Shook the World Pindi's expertise, who died on September 9 2022, in exploring and researching caves has been around for decades. An article in National Geographic entitled Hands that penetrate time, published in December 2005, wrote about Pindi's story with French cave explorer Luc-Henri Fage, photographer Carsten Peter, and archaeologist Jean-Michel Chazine. Fage stated the names of rock art researchers in Indonesia, studies that are very rare in this country. Pindi's exploration of a number of caves in Indonesia was identical to the discovery of hand drawings which at that time were reports of the oldest 'rock drawings' or rock arcs in the world, more than 10 thousand years old. In research with scientists from Griffith University, universities and other research institutions in the Sangkulirang Mangkabayar karst area, East Kalimantan, a number of reports in other internationally reputable scientific journals in the Q1 category have colored international discussions regarding ancient art.

In July 2021, the journal Archaeological and Anthropological Sciences published A Review of Radiometric Dating and Pigment Characterizations of Rock Arc in Indonesia. Rock art has become a buzzword in cave exploration and is published in several internationally reputable Q1 scientific journals. Pindi and colleagues discovered the skeletal remains of a young Borneo human who had at least 31 thousand years ago had the lower portion of his left leg amputated in Sangkulirang-Mangkakerja. The world's oldest figurative paintings were discovered in South Kalimantan caves, and these discoveries, according to PAB organizers, have revolutionized Indonesian archeology and expanded our understanding of the evolution of cognition on Earth.

PEACE, JUSTICE, AND STRONG INSTITUTIONS Sniffing Out Safety: How Gas-Sensing Robots Enhance Environmental Security The utilization of rabotic olfaction technology has gained significant attention, particularly in the context of localizing and mapping potentially hazardous gas sources. Issues such as industrial accidents and potential terrorism have underscored the need to address environmental threats associated with dangerous gases. In a common scenario, robots are dispatched to the site of a recent gas leak with the objective of effectively mapping gas concentrations.

The primary challenge lies in addressing vast and unfamiliar environments. A fundamental issue to tackle is the potential computational delay, including path planning, boundary detection, goal decision-making, and gas distribution mapping, especially when considering the entire grid map of the habitat. To overcome this, the Rapidly-ex-

ploring Random Tree (RRT) algorithm has been selected as the core method in guiding robot navigation. Within this context, RRT guides the robot in determining candidate goals, taking into account the average value and variance of gas concentrations, while actively seeking new boundaries.

Furthermore, a novel strategy has been proposed to address the necessary transitions between gas exploration and exploitation of discovered gas sources. The implementation of this technology has been tested using platforms such as the Robot Operating System (ROS), Gazebo, and a 3D gas simulator to compare the performance of the proposed strategy with various alternative strategies in extensive outdoor environments.

Resilience and Recovery: Examining Family Well-being Post-Sunda Strait Tsunami The Sunda Strait Tsunami in December 2018 left lasting impacts on the well-being of families affected. This study aims to analyze the factors influencing family well-being 27 months after the disaster. The research involved 123 families, categorized into two groups: families residing in temporary shelters (LS) and families not classified as refugees, living outside of temporary shelters (FLNS).

Nearly two-thirds of the families in this study reported that the tsunami’s aftermath continued to disrupt their employment, livelihoods, and daily routines.

While subjective family well-being was measured in terms of acceptance and gratitude, objectively, family well-being had not fully recovered to pre-tsunami levels. The research findings indicated that FLNS families, in comparison to LS families, en-

joyed better housing conditions and more stable livelihood strategies.

Objective family well-being was negatively affected by economic pressures, while subjective family well-being was adversely influenced by economic pressures, both subjectively and objectively. This research underscores the importance of external support for disaster-affected families to alleviate economic pressures by providing access and opportunities for family income generation. Subjective economic pressures serve as a direct mechanism impacting family well-being in the aftermath of a disaster.

PEACE, JUSTICE, AND STRONG INSTITUTIONS Planning for a Fairer Future: Challenges and Opportunities in Urban Development Prof. Deden Rukmana, the Professor and Chair of the Department of Community and Regional Planning at Alabama A&M University, shared insightful perspectives on social justice within the context of urban development during a guest lecture at the Master’s Program in Planning and Policy Development at ITB on March 16, 2022.

He emphasized the paramount importance of considering equity for all sectors of society in urban planning. Prof. Deden’s research in the United States revealed a noteworthy observation. While the U.S. is undoubtedly an advanced nation, it faces a unique phenomenon related to homelessness, closely intertwined with the state of social justice in the country.

One critical factor impacting social justice in the U.S. is race, a legacy of the nation’s complex historical background, en-

compassing slavery, the Civil War, segregation, and social justice protests. In 2012, the “Black Lives Matter” movement emerged as a powerful advocate for social justice, attracting widespread attention to the cause. This movement led to a heightened commitment to social justice and substantial improvements in social equity.

In response, various institutions, including the American Planning Association and The Association of Collegiate Schools of Planning, actively engaged in the realm of urban planning, releasing the “Planning for Equity Police Guide.” These organizations played a crucial role in advancing knowledge and pedagogy to address deep-seated structural issues, such as racism, sexism, oppression, and imbalances of power. The challenge, however, lies in enhancing the quality of life for diverse populations, given that many planning theories originate from Western countries, while the urgency for implementing these theories pertains to diverse racial

groups. Hence, it necessitates contributions and collaboration from various sectors and groups to develop comprehensive knowledge for the realization of planning initiatives that cater to a wide array of communities and diverse racial backgrounds.

PEACE, JUSTICE, AND STRONG INSTITUTIONS ASEAN’s Path to Peace: Malaysia and ITB’s Commitment to Science and Technology The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Malaysia and the Bandung Institute of Technology (ITB) held a discussion aimed at promoting cooperation in the field of science and technology to achieve peace in ASEAN. The ITB Rector initiated the discussion by introducing ITB's vision and mission as an excellent institution in various aspects, including education, research, and innovation. The Rector also explained ITB's efforts in developing an innovation ecosystem, both virtually through https:// lpik.itb.ac.id and through the ITB Innovation Park in the Ganesha and Gedebage areas. ITB employs the concept of "sandboxing" to develop research into products through collaboration with the government and industry. Moreover, ITB aspires to become a defense and aerospace research hub in Bandung, which requires adequate facili-

ties. ITB is also actively involved in mitigating COVID-19 and supporting Indonesia's national economic recovery.

Regarding the discussion topic, the Rector emphasized the importance of collaboration among Indonesia, Malaysia, and other ASEAN countries in the fields of science and technology to address regional issues such as energy, food security, sustainability, and water security.

The Rector hoped that a shared understanding, commonalities, and closeness among these nations could foster dialogue among scientists, researchers, and policymakers and encourage stronger cross-border collaboration in science and technology to create innovations relevant to the challenges they face.

The Malaysian Minister of Foreign Affairs highlighted the three pillars crucial for peace in ASEAN: political security, the economy, and sociocultural issues. The Minister expressed concerns that the third pillar,

especially in the context of sociocultural aspects, is often overlooked by leaders and decision-makers. Therefore, Indonesia and Malaysia should strengthen their sociocultural ties. The development of science and technology has proven to contribute to peaceful and harmonious living, particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic. Focusing on the advancement of science and technology can strengthen the relationship between both countries.

During the meeting, there was also a discussion session between the Malaysian Minister of Foreign Affairs and ITB's Deans and leaders. The outcomes of this discussion emphasized the need for better coordination between Indonesia and Malaysia and further dialogue on issues such as student exchanges between ITB and Malaysian universities, the issue of haze between Malaysia, Indonesia, and Singapore, rainforest research in Kalimantan, oil palm plantations, and various other challenges. These efforts are expected to yield beneficial solutions for Indonesia, Malaysia, and other ASEAN countries.

This is a center for industrial development specifically for machine tools which is located to the west of the ITB campus.

This project is a collaborative program involving the Ministry of Industry, Korea Institute for Advancement of Technology.

MTIDC project is a form of bilateral cooperation between Indonesia and South Korea to develop the machine tool industry in Indonesia. In this collaboration, the Government of the Republic of South Korea provided a grant

of IDR 70 billion in the form of providing machines related to the development of machine tools. The equipment was sent directly from South Korea in stages and placed in the Industrial Technology Development Center (PPTI-ITB) building. The grant assistance provided by the Government of the Republic of South Korea to Indonesia is based on strong friendly relations.

The MTIDC project is a collaborative project between the Directorate General of ILMATE (Metal, Machinery, Transportation Equipment and Electronics Industry) of the Ministry of Industry of the Republic of Indonesia and the Korea Institute for Advancement of Technology (KIAT). The MTIDC project is an implementation of the Machine Tool Industry Technology Development Center (PPTI – MP) project between the Ministry of Industry of the Republic of Indonesia (Kemenperin RI) and the Faculty of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering (FTMD ITB).
