HIBERNASI ― 7th Intervention

Pablo Picasso once said “The meaning of life is to find your gift. The purpose of life is to give it away.” HIBERNASI is our ocular proof of it. We believe that the most effective way to prevent diseases is by implementing a clean and healthy lifestyle, as what we do in HIBERNASI. Up until now, CDS (Community Development Society) CIMSA UGM has held seven HIBERNASI interventions since January 2021. The final intervention took place on May 7, 2022. Different from the previous interventions, the 7th Intervention aimed to recall the materials and enhance the comprehension of Yayasan Hamba caregivers regarding the respective topic. 

This time, the Community Development Society of CIMSA UGM brainstormed an astonishing concept. We split up the whole activity into five posts. Two of them, “Ranking 1” and “Snakes and Ladders Game”, were held to rewind the materials from the previous interventions. The rest of them were delivered to ginger up the agenda. The first post was “Ranking 1”. The rule is the caregivers should answer the questions that are given about a healthy lifestyle. Moving on to the second post, “Guess the Title of the Songs Game”. According to the name, the caregivers guessed the title and the singer of the songs. The post went much merry-making because we sang together at the end of every song. 

Halfway there, we had the “Pudding Decoration Competition”. We had already prepared puddings with some healthy-garnish food. Like its name, the caregivers should decorate the pudding as appealing as they could at the given time. Then, we have the fourth post, “Family 100”. If you guys remember the famous television game series, it is the same as this one. The last post ended with “Snakes and Ladders Game”. The caregivers acted as the pawns while they had to answer some questions when they reached a particular square. 

Lastly, we closed the event with a sharing session with the caregivers of Yayasan Hamba. The mothers expressed their feelings and impressions throughout the entire HIBERNASI project and what they hope for the upcoming one.

Through HIBERNASI, the caregivers of Yayasan Hamba and the children could understand and implement our materials, such as maintaining a clean environment, healthy and hygienic food, and healthy lifestyle habits. We hope that CDS CIMSA UGM could assist their needs physically, academically, and emotionally, preparing them for a brighter future so that they will become healthy citizens with outstanding personalities.
