Sagara (mountain)-Giri (sea), Pasir-Wukir, and upstream-teben (downstream) are other terms that are also symbols of unity and mutual influence.Some traditional Balinese literature mentions that the Kawi Wiku or poet priests wrote their literary works in beautiful places. The priest, poet or author walks along the mountains and coasts to express his visual beauty in the form of literary works as a form of glorification of the Creator.This is what became the inspiration for the establishment of SAGARAGIRI Outdoor. Glorifying nature is one of the ways that Balinese predecessors used to enjoy life, even as a spiritual practice.

PIKOBET SANE KAWETUANG OLIH ALIH FUNGSI LAHAN MAJENG RING KAURIPAN KRAMA BALI + (IMPACTS CAUSED BY LAND USE CHANGE ON THE S … IMPACTS CAUSED BY LAND USE CHANGE ON THE SUSTAINABILITY OF BALINESE COMMUNITIESOm Swastyastu Honorable judging team, as well as beloved friends, let us first offer our prayers and gratitude to Ida Sang Hyang Widhi Wasa for His blessings, allowing us to gather here for the Wikhiton Public Participation event, Bali Orates. On this auspicious occasion, allow me to deliver a speech titled “Issues Arising from Land Use Change in the Life of the Balinese Community.” Ladies and gentlemen, land use change refers to a shift in the function of land from its previous purpose. Land use change in the Bali region has become increasingly prevalent lately, marked by phenomena such as the reduction of productive agricultural land. Indonesia is an agrarian country, and a significant portion of its population works as farmers. What will happen if agricultural land, the source of basic necessities for the Balinese people, continues to be converted into residential areas, coupled with an influx of newcomers requiring them to build dwellings? Another observable phenomenon is the decrease in water catchment areas. Soil is a powerful rainwater absorber. If land with soil is converted into housing, buildings using concrete and paving will indirectly reduce water catchment areas. This becomes hazardous when the rainy season arrives, and the increased use of concrete and paving reduces water catchment areas, leading to higher water volumes and flooding in certain areas. In the last rainy season in Bali, there were numerous flood disasters that resulted in residents losing their homes. Such events will undoubtedly have a negative impact on sustainability, as if left unchecked, the relatively small island of Bali, combined with the increasing trend of land use change, can cause discomfort in the surrounding environment, a decline in food productivity, global warming, and many other terrifying consequences of land use change. Based on these issues, I hope that the future leaders in 2024 can provide solutions to address the escalating land use change. Bali’s leaders are expected to be faithful custodians, safeguarding the land of Bali and enacting regulations that prioritize and champion the land, customs, and culture of Bali. To all my friends, let us protect the land of Bali from the dangers of land use change so that Bali’s land remains sustainable. That is all I can convey; I apologize for any shortcomings. I conclude with Parama Santhi, Om Santhi, Santhi Om. with Parama Santhi, Om Santhi, Santhi Om.)
Ngelawan Gelombang: Tantangan Banjir ring Kabupaten Badung + (In Bali Province, as in many other tropica … In Bali Province, as in many other tropical regions, floods have become a serious issue that often disrupts the daily lives of residents. One of these areas, Badung Regency, faces similar problems, and several solutions can be proposed to address them. Firstly, the construction of a better drainage system is an important step in flood mitigation. Efficient drainage can help facilitate the flow of rainwater and prevent waterlogging on roads and residential areas. Regular cleaning and maintenance are also necessary to keep the drainage system functioning optimally.Furthermore, vegetation planting and land rehabilitation can be long-term solutions to strengthen soil absorption capacity. By increasing vegetation such as trees and shrubs, rainwater can be more easily absorbed by the soil, reducing the risk of erosion. Afforestation and restoration programs can help improve the ecosystem and reduce the risk of future floods. Additionally, better spatial planning is key to preventing floods. Local governments need to ensure that development takes into account environmental aspects and flood risk potentials. Mapping flood-prone areas and controlling development in those areas can reduce vulnerability to floods.Increasing public awareness is also crucial in efforts to address floods. Through education and campaigns, residents can be informed about the importance of environmental conservation and eco-friendly behaviors, such as proper waste disposal and vegetation preservation. The more people involved in environmental conservation, the lower the risk of floods. Moreover, technology can be an effective tool in flood anticipation. Early warning systems connected to weather monitoring can provide quick and accurate information about potential floods, enabling early evacuation and other mitigation measures.Furthermore, the use of technology in drainage management and flood control can improve the efficiency and effectiveness of these efforts. With a combination of various solutions, it is hoped that the flood risk in Badung Regency can be reduced. It is important for the government, the community, and other stakeholders to collaborate in implementing these solutions to create a safer and more sustainable environment for everyone.more sustainable environment for everyone.)
Solusi dari penumpukan sampah yang tidak terpilah di Denpasar + (In daily life, there is a disposal process … In daily life, there is a disposal process involving materials such as leftover food that becomes waste. Waste is the residue of human daily activities and/or natural processes that is solid in form. Waste often refers to unwanted or unbeneficial residual materials for humans.Denpasar, as one of the leading tourist cities in Bali, faces a serious challenge in managing waste accumulation. With the increasing number of residents and tourists each year, this problem becomes increasingly urgent to address. However, amidst this challenge, there is a glimmer of hope through the Zero Waste initiative carried out by SMK Negeri 3 Denpasar.Waste accumulation in Denpasar has become a primary concern for the local government and community. Amidst its natural beauty, waste piles can damage the environment and disrupt tourism. However, SMK Negeri 3 Denpasar has taken proactive steps by introducing the Zero Waste concept to its students.Zero Waste is a lifestyle philosophy aimed at reducing, reusing, and recycling all produced waste, so that nothing is disposed of in landfills. This initiative has changed students' perceptions of waste, from something to be discarded to a resource that can be reused.One of the activities carried out in the Zero Waste program at SMK Negeri 3 Denpasar is the management of organic waste. Students learn to compost organic waste into fertilizer, which is then used to produce green plants in the school environment. Thus, not only reducing the amount of waste entering landfills, but also producing positive benefits for the environment.Additionally, the school encourages students to use eco-friendly products and reduce the use of single-use plastics. They practice using tumblers and cloth shopping bags as alternatives to plastic bottles and plastic shopping bags. These small steps have a significant impact on reducing the amount of plastic waste polluting the environment.Moreover, SMK Negeri 3 Denpasar is also active in environmental cleanup campaigns. Students participate in activities cleaning beaches, rivers, and other public areas as part of their social responsibility. They not only clean up existing waste but also raise awareness among the community about the importance of maintaining environmental cleanliness.The Zero Waste initiative from SMK Negeri 3 Denpasar not only helps reduce waste accumulation in Denpasar but also serves as an inspirational example for other schools across Indonesia. By educating the younger generation about the importance of the environment, we can ensure a more sustainable future.Through collaboration between the government, community, and educational institutions like SMK Negeri 3 Denpasar, we can achieve the dream of having a clean and sustainable Denpasar. Every small step has a significant impact in our fight against waste accumulation and preserving the beauty of nature for future generations.e beauty of nature for future generations.)
"BUDI DAYA MAGGOT ANGGEN NEPASIN PIKOBET LUU RING KOTA DENPASAR" + (In Denpasar City, which is the capital, go … In Denpasar City, which is the capital, government and economic center of Bali Province, I see that flooding is the main problem in this city. It is not surprising that one hundred tons of waste is collected in Denpasar City every day. This is very dangerous if you don't pay attention, because it can make the damaged area worse. As a result, many other problems arise in the city of Denpasar because of this disease.This problem cannot be left to the government alone, but the active role of society is needed. There are many ways that can be done to overcome the problem of blindness, one of which is by increasing public awareness of the importance of the problem of blindness. As a student, even in high school I was still taught by teachers to always care about the environment through the P5 program implemented at school. Through this program I think that this stupid problem can be solved by cultivating Magot. "Maggot Power Culture to Overcome the Lice Problem in Denpasar City" The City Government has helped overcome this flea problem with advanced technology, every citizen can help the government in this flea problem by cultivating maggots because maggot cultivation can break down organic waste into fertilizer or in Bali is often called nyanyad. Maggots come from Black Soldier Fly (BSF) flies, cultivation only uses board/wooden cages that have gaps and are covered with cloth, a small space to press maggot eggs and a rack for maggot growth, in the maggot growth process, it is placed in a place exposed to light. sun.Organic waste such as nut shells, fruit remains and grass in the garden can be placed in this place. Magot to break down organic waste or dirt into fertilizer or manure. 1 Kg of Maggot can decompose 4 Kg of organic waste or rubbish every two days. If every city resident had 1 kg of fat, there would be no more organic waste in this city. The remaining plastic waste must be handed over to the government which has sophisticated equipment for recycling. The following are the benefits of maggot cultivation: 1. Reduce the volume of waste in landfill because organic waste is used to feed maggots 2. Maggot fruit can be used as animal feed which contains high protein because maggots consume organic waste such as vegetables and fruit 3. Maggots which can dispose of waste will produce Kasgot (Maggot Residue) which can be used as organic fertilizerMaggot cultivation is very profitable for the environment and maggot caretakers, because apart from being able to grow organic waste, fertilizer and maggot waste can be used or sold at a higher price, it can be said that maggot cultivation is easier and has a higher functional value. easier and has a higher functional value.)

As we know, Bali is a charming tourist paradise, but unfortunately, there are several problems that arise along with the increase in visits by foreign tourists to this island.First of all, we cannot close our eyes to the social and cultural impacts caused by the presence of foreigners in Bali. Sometimes, there is a misunderstanding between foreign tourists and local people regarding the cultural norms that apply here. Several incidents such as the use of clothing that is considered inappropriate, the large number of foreign tourists who do not respect Balinese culture or behavior that is not in accordance with Balinese customs and traditions often cause tension between the two parties, therefore, as Balinese leaders who care about the future The future of this island needs to look at this problem further, both among local communities and foreign tourists, regarding the importance of maintaining social, economic and environmental harmony.

Before we deliver our oration, let us offer thanksgiving to Ida Sang Hyang Widhi Wasa with Om Swastiastu. In recent years, the cases of suicide in Indonesia has become increasingly worrying. Indonesia, as a country that adheres to a collectivistic culture, also has a fairly high number of suicide cases. WHO estimates that in 2020 the suicide rate in Indonesia could reach 2.4 percent of 100,000 people if it does not receive serious attention from various parties. Bali Province is one of the provinces in Indonesia that has a fairly high number of suicide cases. Most suicide cases in Bali are committed by teenagers in young adulthood. One of the factors that influences the emergence of behavior, including suicidal behavior and suicide attempts, is self-concept. Self-concept is an individual's perception of himself, his perception of his social environment, and his perception of other people's views of him. Apart from that, the environment where you live also has a big influence on a person's mental health. If someone is in a positive environment, of course their mental health will be better maintained. However, if someone is in a bad environment, it can have a negative impact on that person's mental health. One of them is that it can cause suicidal thoughts. Therefore, suicide cases really need attention from the public so that they understand and are more open about mental health for teenagers. But unfortunately, suicide cases are often underestimated by most of society. People think that mental health is not important to pay attention to. In fact, someone who has mental health problems really needs the attention of the people around them to continue to receive encouragement and attention. With all the existing problems, attention and encouragement are needed from the community and government in dealing with suicide cases in Bali.In an effort to overcome these cases, the government can optimize mental health screening by providing outreach to the public to create awareness of the importance of mental health for humans, especially teenagers. Apart from that, society and the government can also build an anti-suicide community for teenagers to minimize the existing death rate and teenagers can also express the feelings they have. By adopting this solution, it is hoped that society and the government will become more aware of the importance of mental health. In this way, it is hoped that society can build a positive environment so that the death rate caused by suicide cases will decrease. Let's care about the importance of mental health!

Her research explores the flow of ideas and artifacts along this highway -- architecture, bronzes, textiles, ceramics, performance traditions, and visualizations of texts like Panji Malat, the Ramayana, and the Mahabharata -- artifacts that move and those that are locally produced. This accounts for the shaping of ideas and the development of styles across vast geographical and historical distances. Her work is governed by the complex ways in which History of Art and Visual Studies intersect with Anthropology, Material Culture, Colonial and Post-colonial Theory, Performance, Gender and Religious Studies.Having first begun her study of Balinese performing arts as an undergraduate at Wesleyan University, one ongoing project has involved documenting the work of painters in Bali who experiment with depicting musical sound and the rhythmic motion of the dance in their work.

His unique ability to convey action and emotion in a rich and imaginative composition brings the traditional to life for modern audiences, Western and Balinese alike.Originally from Pengosekan, a small community near Ubud, Madra moved to nearby Peliatan as a young man in the late 1950s to work as a painter for the art dealer Wayan Gedah. At that time he also began studying with Tjokorda Oka Gambir, and learned the techniques and conventions of traditional wayang painting, including the specific colors, iconography, and costume for scores of characters.Madra started painting exclusively wayang narratives in the early 1960s, and soon developed a reputation as a skillful and original artist. He works with deliberation, and sells work directly from his studio to people who find him, usually through word-of-mouth. Occasionally, trusted local dealers with galleries catering to serious collectors also buy his work.In 1974, Madra’s work was shown in international exhibitions in the UK and the USA for the first time. In the same year he completed the first bungalow of what would become the Ketut Madra Homestay on his property in Peliatan. Over the next 15 years, he gradually expanded the accommodations for students, travelers, musicians, and artists interested in “a quiet place to learn about Bali.” The homestay has been a central feature in the life of Madra and his family, and has introduced three generations of visitors to his work and to traditional Balinese arts and culture.At the age of 41, having focused up to that point on work and the homestay, Madra needed something more. Nyoman Kakul, a preeminent dancer of Batuan village who admired Madra’s understanding of the stories told in Balinese dance drama, urged him to learn to perform. More than 30 years later than most Balinese dancers take their first lessons, Madra learned the role of topeng keras, the rough prime minister in the king’s court. He continues to dance more than 30 years later, playing a variety of roles for which he is highly regarded.Madra also learned as an adult to play the rebab, the two-stringed bowed lute in the gamelan ensemble. He dances and plays regularly with the Tirta Sari gamelan group in Peliatan. Dance, Madra says, is a near perfect complement to his life as a painter.

Pikobet Pengolahan Sampah Sane Sayan Rahat + (Klungkung is one of the districts in Bali. … Klungkung is one of the districts in Bali. In 2023, Klungkung district will be led by Mr. Nyoman Suwirta. A program that is viral, well-known and used as a role model among the people of Klungkung is the TOSS (Local Waste Processing Place) program. This program received a lot of praise and positive comments from the Klungkung community, and from outside Klungkung. However, recently the TOSS program has not run according to the initial plan and has been ineffective in solving the waste problem in Klungkung. The acting Regent of Klungkung, I Nyoman Jendrika, said that the main problem in Klungkung is the increase in waste volume by up to 2 times, from previously 16 tonnes now to 32 tonnes a day. In other sources, some say that the cause of this waste problem is a lack of public awareness about the function of a beautiful and clean environment. This is also what causes Klungkung to have a lot of rubbish.Now, what solutions should we take as the young generation of Bali to create a sustainable and clean Klungkung area? The solution that I can convey and recommend is to implement the Tri Hita Karana teachings.Why Tri Hita Karana? What is the relation?Tri Hita Karana is one of the Hindu teachings in Bali. Tri Hita karana means "3 things that cause prosperity", which is divided into 3 parts:1. Parhyangan: Parhyangan is our relationship with Ida Sang Hyang Widhi as the ruler of the universe. I think, if we discuss the word "Parhyangan" we will definitely think of the means of prayer and offerings. However, what I want to discuss is not that, but this parhyangan is about our behavior in holy places such as temples. We should maintain the cleanliness of the temple, by cleaning or offering ngayah. Existing rubbish must not be thrown into rivers or sewers, but must be processed into something more useful. This is also a form of our good relationship with Ida Sang Hyang Widhi.2. Pawongan: Pawongan is our relationship with other humans. As Balinese people, we should help each other and care about human suffering. Based on the waste problem, we can all implement the teachings of Tri Hita Karana by reminding each other about the importance of a clean and healthy environment. I mean, waste processing in Klungkung doesn't have to be done and processed by TOSS and the government alone, but we all have to try to sort or process waste in our homes. If we could sort and process it in our respective homes, the problem of waste piling up in Klungkung would definitely be resolved.3. Palemahan ; This Palemahan is one of the teachings of Tri Hita Karana which is most appropriate to the waste problem above. We as citizens of Bali, especially Hindus, definitely believe that humans, animals and beasts are God's creation. Therefore, our relationship with our environment must be maintained. One way to protect our environment is by processing waste. We as the people of Klungkung certainly already know about this TOSS program, therefore let's work together to sort and process waste from our respective homes so that this TOSS can run smoothly and effectively.In essence, the teachings of Balinese ancestors are things that should be implemented in this era of globalization. Although, it is possible to implement it using modern understanding and methods. We as teenagers or the young generation of Bali should not be lulled by globalization. We must be aware of the latest news, and always preserve Balinese cultural traditions as a role model in our efforts towards a beautiful and clean Bali.fforts towards a beautiful and clean Bali.)

Salt produced inKusamba village, Klungkung Regency, Bali Province. As an organic salt, Kusamba salt does not use chemical ingredients, Kusambasalt is said to be organic because the way it is made still relies heavily on nature. Sunlight and heat are friends of Kusambasalt farmers. The way it is made is still done in the traditional way. However, now, this traditional business is increasinglythreatened with bankruptcy. The selling price of this high quality salt is less profitable. On average, farmers sell it for IDR1,200 per kilogram, during the rainy season the selling price only reaches IDR 3 thousand per kilogram. Another problem isthat kusamba salt is made traditionally and the production is limited. This is the basis for starting a system that is able toincrease salt production from generation to generation. Then, what is the solution?The solution that can solve this problem is to use a tunnel system. In simple terms, a tunnel system means adding a storagecontainer with the help of a geoisolator and cover, then stringing it together like a tunnel.

Rintihan suara rakyat yang tidak memiliki kuasa tuk memilih + (Ladies and gentlemen, I am present here to … Ladies and gentlemen, I am present here to voice an echoing yet unheard plea, which is the fate of the cries of abandoned and cruelly tortured animals. The Island of Bali is too beautiful to be inhabited by these grim animals.These animals are pets tortured cruelly for personal pleasure, beaten to disability out of hatred, stolen to be eaten. Animals employed like the overworked horses forced to endure harsh conditions. Experimental animals, such as frogs dissected without anesthesia, also suffer unwarranted pain.I appeal to the Bali Province Regional Council to strengthen Regional Regulation No. 1 of 2023 regarding the Protection of Flora and Fauna. I highlight the ambiguity in the rules regarding the definition of "keeping" animals in Article 11 paragraph 1 section c. However, in Article 1 paragraph 9, it states that Wildlife includes all animals living on land, in water, or in the air, retaining their wild nature, whether they live freely or are kept by humans.With clear and robust legal foundations, many positive things will emerge: more people will dare to speak up for animal protection, impart moral lessons to children, and raise awareness of the importance of compassion towards animals, boosting the government's morality in the eyes of the public. Communities or individuals independently rescuing and caring for these animals will also be supported and have continuous collaboration with the government.Together, let us make Bali a safe and comfortable place for the animals living here, following the footsteps of developed countries like Switzerland, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Germany, and Australia in animal protection. Through this speech, what I "HOPE," becoming what "WE" HOPE, and ultimately becoming what "WE ALL" HOPE FOR. With one heart, let us make Bali a paradise for these animals.us make Bali a paradise for these animals.)

Om Sywastyastu. Through a pure and sinless heart, I never cease to express my gratitude to God Almighty, because with His blessings, I can meet with this audience today. In which I participate in the oration competition in today’s Public Participation Wikithon. Hopefully, events like this will continue to grow in the future, making Bali strong. Ladies and gentlemen, the subject of my oration is titled “Good Education as a Tool to Improve the Quality of Bali’s Human Resources”.Ladies and gentlemen, what made me take that title? Because from a lot of what I see I conclude the youth in Bali do not get a good education. This makes it difficult for Balinese human resources to get a job that can develop the economy of the province of Bali. According to data from the Central Bureau of Statistics in 2021, the percentage of Balinese who did not go to school was 1.03 thousand people or 24.04%; then those who did not graduate from elementary school were 377.18 thousand people or 8.83%. Based on these data from the Central Bureau of Statistics, the government and Balinese people, especially students, should try to implement programs that can help Balinese people who have not received proper education. Then, what programs can be implemented? Let’s think together.As a Balinese youth, I will provide solutions or suggestions to the ladies and gentlemen of the DPD Bali as well as the government who is the mouthpiece of the community, to always help provide good knowledge to all Balinese. The first suggestion: pay attention to the quality and quantity of the teachers. Teachers or educators are like the main key that will teach or provide knowledge to students. If teachers’ wages, facilities and accommodation are not good or adequate, it will affect the teaching process. Secondly, school and classroom support facilities should be prioritized. When the learning process takes place, but the facilities used are not complete, of course the teacher and students will have diffulties and the learning process in the classroom will be disrupted. The third suggestion is to provide the youth with positive out-of-school activities or out-of-school learning programs. Good examples are carrying out and participating in competitions, participating in community service programs as well as other useful work. With these activities students do not only to learn at school.Ladies and gentlemen, based on the many things I have talked about, I would like to conclude as follows. The Balinese government and people should not underestimate education. Because through education, we can get a good job to improve the quality of Bali’s underdeveloped human resources. Also the Balinese are expected not to be swayed by the wealth that exists in today’s world, called “Industrial Revolution 4.0”. Let us together help Balinese who have not received a good education through positive and useful programs or activities. Lastly, we should introspect ourselves so as not to forget ourselves and together carry out our religious obligations by strengthening Bali.Well, ladies and gentlemen whom I respect very much, that’s all I can say on this good day. Thank you to those who have witnessed my speech. Hopefully what I have said will be useful. For any shortcomings, let me apologize. In closing, I say paramasanthi. Om Shanti, Shanti, Shanti, Om.ramasanthi. Om Shanti, Shanti, Shanti, Om.)
"WARGA NEGARA ASING NGAWINANG MANAH AJERIH RING KRAMA BALI" + (Ladies and gentlemen, our honorable guest. … Ladies and gentlemen, our honorable guest. Before we start this oration. Allow us to express our gratitude to Ida Sang Hayang Widhi Wasa, for it is through His grace that we gather on this auspicious day. With heartfelt devotion, we begin with panganjali:Om swastyastu our honorable guest, the oration we will deliver today is entitled "Foreign Citizens are disturbing the Balinese people". Recently, foreign tourists or "foreigners" in Bali have been in the public spotlight because they are acting up and making people anxious. Instead of being deterred, foreigners who were found committing various violations in Bali actually resisted when the police took action. Not just one violation but many violations committed by foreigners, such as: 1. Increased Traffic Violations:Statistical data records a dramatic increase in traffic violations committed by a number of foreigners. A lack of concern for road rules and safety not only threatens local communities but also creates significant risks for foreigners themselves. This increase reflects troubling non-compliance, necessitating more effective enforcement actions and more intensive awareness campaigns.2. Adverse Immigration Problems:High levels of overstaying and violations of immigration regulations create a serious burden on the immigration system. The economic and social impacts of this behavior are very real, given the resources that must be allocated to deal with these cases. Increased controls and enhanced immigration enforcement actions are imperative to ensure compliance with existing provisions and maintain the integrity of the immigration system.3. Establishing a Business Without a Permit:The establishment of businesses without proper permits by some foreigners is detrimental to the local economy, creating disproportionate inequality in business competition. This problem not only concerns economic aspects but also raises questions of rights and justice in business. An in-depth evaluation of the economic and social impacts of these practices is needed to determine solutions that can address these problems without harming those who comply with the rules.4. Non-compliance with Environmental Regulations:The behavior of foreigners who do not comply with environmental regulations creates a serious threat to ecological sustainability in Bali. These cases include littering, damage to local plants, and violations of sustainability principles. A thorough evaluation of the long-term impacts of this environmental damage needs to be carried out to understand the implications for the ecosystem and the welfare of local communities.stem and the welfare of local communities.)

Ngwangun malih titi pengancan kewagedan + (Libraries are often thought of as a bridge … Libraries are often thought of as a bridge to knowledge, a place where individuals can find lessons, inspiration, and entertainment. However, in the city of Denpasar, Bali, libraries face a number of problems that impede public access to this valuable intellectual resource. With the experiences and stories of local people, we can understand how important it is to overcome these challenges and rebuild the foundation of libraries as inclusive and effective learning centers. One of the major problems faced by libraries in the City of Denpasar is inconsistent operational schedules. Many libraries are only open during normal business hours, even on weekdays, making it difficult for workers or students with busy schedules to visit. In fact, some libraries even close on weekends, when many people have free time to study or enjoy reading. This causes frustration and reduces the public's interest in using library facilities. In addition, unresponsive service and lack of effective communication are also constraints. Many visitors feel that library staff are unfriendly and unwilling to help. The experience of Sekar, a local resident, reflects a common experience where simple requests such as finding a wifi password or a membership registration procedure are not responded to well. This results in a difficult experience and less motivation to return to the library. In addition, the lack of information about the operational schedule and library services is also a problem. Many libraries do not actively update their information on online platforms such as Google Maps, making it difficult for the public to know when the library is open or closed. This causes confusion and uncertainty, especially for those who do not live near libraries or have limited access to the internet. To address these problems, concrete steps need to be taken by governments and stakeholders. First, libraries need to expand their operating schedules, including opening on weekends and at night to reach more people. This will provide an opportunity for individuals with busy schedules to access library resources. In addition, training for library staff in customer service and effective communication is also important. Library staff should be equipped with the necessary skills to provide friendly and responsive assistance to visitors. This will help create a more welcoming environment and encourage people to use library facilities more comfortably. Equally important, libraries should increase their efforts in disseminating information about their services and operating schedules. This can be done through a variety of communication channels, including social media and library websites. By providing clear and easily accessible information, libraries can rebuild public trust and increase their participation. With these steps, the libraries in the City of Denpasar can play a more effective role in providing access to knowledge and supporting lifelong learning for its community. By improving their systems and services, libraries can become inclusive and inspiring centers of learning, helping to build a brighter future for future generations. a brighter future for future generations.)
Bandana Tewari + (Lifestyle journalist and sustainability ac … Lifestyle journalist and sustainability activist Bandana Tewari believes storytelling and personal responsibility have a huge part to play in the reformation of the fashion industry.When you were starting out in fashion, what were the issues facing the industry, and at what point do you think attitudes to fashion and especially fast fashion started to change to incorporate ideas of sustainability?I worked at Vogue India for thirteen years. It was a time when the Indian market opened up to a deluge of international luxury brands. There was much optimism and excitement about the massive aspirational population of India, the cynosure of multinational companies eager to conduct business in the Indian subcontinent. At this point, conspicuous consumerism was applauded and encouraged – signalling a modern India that was willing to spend money, display affluence, and be the sartorial arbiter of a young nation. There was no awareness of conscious consumption, of sustainability and environmental impact of the incredible waste and excess that plagues the fashion industry today.In all honesty, the risks of over-consumption and the perils of fast fashion, as we now know of them, came into our collective consciousness only recently. The Rana Plaza disaster of 2013 in Bangladesh was the most brutal symbol of a global fashion industry gone wrong. It exposed a terrible truth: a multi-trillion-dollar industry was systemically plagued by unimaginable inequalities, both economic and social. This Rana Plaza disaster – when five garment factories collapsed killing more than 1,100 people, mostly women – created a global uproar. The world woke up to a fashion industry that pays some of the lowest wages, conducts business in such unsafe work environments, it creates untold disregard for human life. And then the environmental issues ensued which saw rivers and farms in developing nations being clogged and degraded with industry waste creating irreparable harm to people and the planet.It is through the exposé of the extraordinary pains of ordinary people who make our clothes that led to a monumental change in the way we perceive the business of fashion.How seriously do fast fashion brands like, let’s say H&M, really take the concept of waste within the industry? Are these efforts to improve sustainability just an exercise in greenwashing?We are drowning in clothes – many of the approximately100 billion garments sold each year go into landfills or are incinerated – both harmful to the environment. According to Fast Company, H&M produces three billion garments a year and till 2019 was sitting on $4.1 billion worth of unsold clothes, some of which, we are told, became fuel for a power plant in Sweden. While many initiatives are underway to address the problems of production and consumption, it seems too little at a time when we have swiftly moved from climate change to climate crisis. The fashion industry generates 10 percent of global carbon emission, 20 percent of all waste water, and pollutes the oceans with half a million tons of microplastics. So, if big changes do not propel a big impact – it is, simply, greenwashing.Given the magnitude of the problem, whatever solutions provided by fast fashion companies, thus far, seem perfunctory. The velocity with which garments are being manufactured, bought and tossed away is horrendous, to say the least. One garbage truck of clothes is either burnt or dumped in landfills every second! So whatever Zara, H&M or other fast fashion brands are doing to rectify the system is too little. Governments and policies need to intervene to limit the greed and speed of overproduction. More investments in R&D for solutions in recycling, alternative fabrics, etc, are crucial. Consumers need to play an important role in disarming the consumerist agenda of globalisation that fuels the ‘marketing need’ for more and more, bigger and bigger. Every human being should know how they choose to spend their hard-earned money really does matter!To what extent do you think consumers really care about what happens in the rivers and seas thousands of miles away that are affected by the processes used to create our fashionable clothes?Consumers do care about rivers, seas and every aspect of nature, provided they are shown the truth – truth about human beings’ role in the degradation of nature that comes from corporate greed, mindless consumption and governmental apathy. There is not a single human being who doesn’t want their children to grow up in an environment that is nurturing and nourished. Who amongst us wants to live in the filth of pollution?The problem is that consumers have been ‘sold’ only one part of the story – the part that says when clothes glitter and automobiles shine and you own them then you have made it. When in fact, the process of making – what irreplaceable natural resources are harnessed to make things, the number of hands that go into making even a simple t-shirt – is excluded from the narrative, the inequalities in the system and the harm perpetrated on our environment will remain invisible. When you are never shown the problem, why would you seek a solution?Tell us about your latest project…I am a writer. Sadly, I don’t have any big projects to boast of. However, my personal commitment as a storyteller is to always follow the four fundamental principles of authentic storytelling: Product, People, Process, Purpose. If any one of these ‘Ps’ are unfulfilled or unaddressed by a company or brand, I will not write about it. Every media person should pay heed to the power of the pen.What advice would you give to young designers starting out now?I would request every designer starting out today to read Small is Beautiful, a book written by the hallowed global economist E.F. Shumacher. In this book there is a chapter called ‘Buddhist Economy’ which throws light on the need for mindfulness in business. It is a guide to making one’s daily work – a noble act of humanity. It points to our present-day crisis in the way leaders are raised or made to pillage the earth, as if humans are the only sentient beings in this world. It points to correcting an era that seems so disconnected with our inner and outer divinity – that we have made human-force into labour-force.What is the future of fashion?The future of fashion is compassionate; how else will we survive? There is no business to be done on a dead planet. So, I feel confident that we will rise to address the challenges of waste, greed and environmental degradation. With a generation of young people born in this era of climate crisis, they will, without any doubt, only choose industry leaders who lead with a ‘monk mentality’, leaders who reinforce the crucible of compassion and conscious consumption. I believe that the future of fashion will have storytellers, producers and creators who will show the interconnectedness of everything around us – the magic of coexistence and biodiversity. They will tell us the story of our t-shirts – made from a seed of life that blossomed into cotton; the same cotton that clothes us also thrives when it grows alongside other diverse plants, on a land rich in soil nutrients. The future of fashion will have great teachers who will tell us that what we ingest into our bodies and what we put on our bodies must both honour the sacredness of nature.IG & Twitter: @behavebandanaur the sacredness of nature.
