AbstrakKota Tanjungpinang merupakan ibukota Provinsi Kepulauan Riau yang juga termasuk daerah pesisir. Sebagai Kota yang sedang berkembang, maka kepadatan penduduk di Kota Tanjungpinang terus meningkat secara signifikan. Dampak akibat padatnya jumlah penduduk yaitu alih fungsi lahan sebagai lahan permukiman, industri, sarana dan prasarana serta kegiatan lainnya. Salah satu alih fungsi lahan yang terjadi yaitu alih fungsi kawasan mangrove yang menyebabkan rusaknya ekosistem di daerah pesisir dan lautnya. Kurangnya pengetahuan dan kesadaran akan dampak rusaknya ekosistem mangrove di daerah pesisir serta kurangnya pemahaman terhadap upaya pelestarian ekosistem mangrove menyebabkan permasalahan tersebut terus terjadi. Pengabdian masyarakat yang diadakan oleh tim Pengabdian Universitas Maritim Raja Ali Haji (UMRAH) ditujukan kepada masyarakat Kota Tanjungpinang dengan metode pendidikan/edukasi kepada masyarakat Tanjungpinang untuk memberikan pengetahuan tentang peran pentingekosistem mangrove bagi daerah pesisir, meningkatkan kesadaran dan kepedulianmasyarakat dalam melestarikan daerah pesisir serta mendorong masyarakat untuk ikut melakukan konservasi mangrove. Kegiatan pengabdian berjalan dengan baik. Hal ini terlihat dari keinginan masyarakat untuk ikut menandatangani janji pelestarian lingkungan.Kata Kunci: edukasi masyarakat, pelestarian, daerah pesisirAbstractTanjungpinang City is the capital of Riau Islands Province which is also a coastal area. As a developing city, the population density in Tanjungpinang City continues to increase significantly. The impact due to dense population is the conversion of land as residential land, industry, facilities and infrastructure as well as other activities. One of the functions of land conversion is the conversion of mangrove areas which causes damage to the ecosystem in the coastal and marine areas. Lack of knowledge and awareness of the impact of damage to mangrove ecosystems in coastal areas and a lack of understanding of efforts to conserve mangrove ecosystems causes these problems to continue to occur. Community service provided by the Raja Ali Haji Maritime University (UMRAH) community service team is aimed at the people of the city of Tanjungpinang with education methods to the Tanjungpinang community to provide knowledge about the important role of mangrove ecosystems in coastal areas, increase public awareness and concern in preserving coastal areas and encourage the community to participate in mangrove conservation. Community service activities went well. This can be seen from the desire of the community to join in signing environmental pledges.Key Word: community education, preservation, coastal area

ABSTRACT  Culturally, the relationship between the people and wild animals in Papua is close-knitted and inseparable. In response to this, through the Manokwari Menyapa program of RRI Manokwari, we share information about the current relationship between people and wildlife during the Covid-19 pandemic. This community service activity is carried out through radio broadcasts, which is an interactive program between listeners and informants on Monday, July 20, 2020. Listeners’ responses vary widely including the impact of consuming animal meat, keeping animals as pet animals, and the consequences of forest loss to the intense exposure of animals to the people. Another thing that was revealed was the extent of the role of academics in efforts to reduce the current spread of the Covid-19 virus. This activity shows that the dissemination of information through electronic media (radio) related to the issue of the Covid-19 epidemic is very good and effective. The media’s wide reach for people who can follow the radio broadcasts of RRI Pro2FM Manokwari benefits this program so much. This activity provides input to us regarding the public’s understanding of the Covid-19 pandemic and the proper follow-up actions that should be considered by the authorities to reduce the spread of the Covid-19 virus in the community. Intense dissemination of information about the Covid-19 virus now needs to be done as an effort to raise awareness for ordinary people who do not understand well the dangers of this virus for human health.  Keywords: Covid-19; RRI listeners; Manokwari Menyapa    ABSTRAK  Secara kultural, hubungan manusia-satwa liar (hewan) di Papua sangat erat dan tidak dapat dipisahkan. Menyikapi hal tersebut, melalui program Manokwari Menyapa RRI Manokwari, kami berbagi informasi tentang hubungan antara manusia dan hidupan liar di masa pandemik Covid-19. Kegiatan pengabdian pada masyarakat ini dilakukan melalui siaran radio yang merupakan program interaksi antara pendengar dengan nara sumber pada hari Senin, 20 Juli 2020. Respon pendengar sangat bervariasi termasuk dampak mengkonsumsi daging satwa, memelihara satwa sebagai hewan kesenangan, serta akibat kehilangan hutan terhadap ekspose satwa yang sangat intens dengan manusia. Hal lain yang terungkap adalah sejauh mana peran akademisi dalam upaya mengurangi penyebaran virus Covid-19 saat ini.  Kegiatan ini menunjukan bahwa penyebaran informasi melalui media elektronik (radio) berkaitan dengan isu pendemi Covid-19 ini, sangat baik dan efektif karena jangkauannya yang luas bagi masyarakat yang bisa mengikuti siaran radio RRI Pro2FM Manokwari.  Kegiatan ini memberikan masukan kepada kita bagaimana pemahaman masyarakat terhadap pandemik Covid-19, dan tindak lanjut yang perlu dilakukan oleh pihak-pihak berwenang untuk mengurangi penyebaran virus Covid-19 di masyarakat terutama yang berhubungan dengan hidupan liar. Penyebaran informasi tentang virus Covid-19 secara intens saat ini perlu dilakukan sebagai upaya penyadartahuan bagi masyarakat awam yang belum memahami dengan baik bahayanya virus ini bagi kesehatan manusia.  Kata kunci: Covid-19; Pemirsa RRI; Manokwari Menyapa

The COVID-19 pandemic brought new challenges to the global community, reinforcing the role of public health in society. The main measures to combat it had (and still have) a huge impact on the daily lives of citizens. This investigation aimed to identify and monitor the population’s perceptions about how it faced this period and the impact on health, well-being, and daily life. In this study, we describe the main trends observed throughout the COVID-19 pandemic in terms of mental health status, confidence in the capacity of the health services to respond to the pandemic, and the use of health services by participants. The online survey collected responses from 171,947 individuals ≥16 years of age in Portugal, over a period of 15 weeks that started on 21 March 2020. Participants could fill the questionnaire once or weekly, which enabled us to analyse trends and variations in responses. Overall, 81% of the respondents reported having felt agitated, anxious, or sad during the COVID-19 pandemic; 19% did not experience these feelings. During the confinement period, the proportion of participants feeling agitated, anxious, or sad every day/almost every day ranged between 20 and 30%, but since the deconfinement this proportion decreased. Around 30% reported having more difficulty getting to sleep or to sleep all night; 28.4% felt more agitated; 25.5% felt sadder, discouraged, or cried more easily; and 24.7% felt unable to do everything they had to do, women more frequently than men. Overall, 65.8% of the participants reported feeling confident or very confident in the health services’ capacity to respond to the challenges associated with the pandemic, and this confidence increased over time. Concerning the people who needed a consultation, 35.6% had one in person and 20.8% had one remotely, but almost 44% did not have one due to cancellation by the service (27.2%) or their own decision not to go (16.3%). At this unusual time in which we find ourselves and based on our findings, it is essential to continue monitoring how the population is facing the different phases of the pandemic until it officially ends. Analysing the effects of the pandemic from the point of view of citizens allows for anticipating critical trends and can contribute to preventative action.

Technology-rich environments are assuming a key role in the individual learning processes. Still, one of the major IT challenges identified in the education field is to establish e-learning as a credible and viable complement to face-to-face education. This represents a paradigm shift in the way of learning, which is driving changes at individual, process, institutional, and societal levels. However, despite last-decade advances in the application of usability principles in system design, there is still a need to better understand the people-technology fit in learning contexts. Current results, gaps, and issues define the challenges that dictate new requirements. Among these new requirements, minimizing the impact of the distance factor on communication and learning effectiveness calls for alternatives approaches. Due to the importance of communication among instructor and students in learning, the scope of this work focuses on exploring the role of emotions within the user and learning-support technology fit.

Abstract The collaboration between theatre directors and funding agencies can impede and/or promote the aesthetics and functionality of theatre performances, thus (dis)empowering the ordinary people. The paper, focusing on two performances, The Boomerang and Pamela’s Journal sponsored by the Fobang-Mundi Foundation and The Society for Women and AIDS in Africa-Cameroon (SWAA-C), explores the role of institutions and organisations that fund theatre projects in Africa to highlight the impact of patronage, specifically in contexts where the patron-artist relation is evoked. Questioning whether such projects could actually confer “power to the people,” depend on the negotiation skills and professionality of the theatre facilitator; the paper focuses on the beneficiaries of commissioned performances.

Despite the populist radical right’s (PRR) popularity among political scientists, little scholarship has focused on its influence on foreign policy. This lack of study is due, in part, to a general lack of attention to the role of political parties in foreign policy, both in comparative politics and international relations (IR). This is unfortunate because, due to Europeanization and globalization, the domain of foreign policy has expanded, making foreign policy increasingly a domestic concern and, most importantly, touching on major themes of PRR parties. Combining insights from comparative politics and IR, we theorize the mechanisms, which may facilitate the impact of such parties on foreign policy. Subsequently, we examine whether the Italian Northern League (LN), as a prime example of a PRR party participating in a coalition government, has had an impact on Italy’s foreign policy and, if so, what accounts for this (lack of) influence. This paper concludes that, unlike common understanding, the PRR is not persistently anti-internationalist/anti-EU; rather, its position depends on the extent to which international politics helps or hinders the promotion of ‘the people’. Second, despite the LN’s strong coalition position, it pursued an effective foreign policy mainly regarding immigration policy. Third, IR theories of junior coalition partners and foreign policy should address the nature of the party system and how inter-party electoral competition affects the strength of a junior coalition partner. Fourth, these theories need to acknowledge that party preferences are sometimes trumped by national concerns, as suggested by more systemic IR theories.
