This chapter examines the history of other nations in achieving rapid industrialization, explains the scientific processes involved, as well as developing a model to guide Nigerians in curbing mass unemployment. This industrialized countries where selected randomly from the pool of industrialized nations, to represent the different continents. Their journey to industrialization was studied and itemized to help developing countries design a unique strategy to curb mass unemployment. The chapter adopts historical analysis to gather evidence and formulate ideas from the past and empirical analysis by direct and indirect observation. The data used in this study were both primary and secondary. The results of the study were descriptive in nature. The study revealed several models that would guide Nigerians to achieving industrialization. In conclusion, the principles and strategy applied by the industrialized nations for achieving industrialization and curbing mass unemployment is learning: theory and practical. Learning: proper education and training on how to manufacture products promotes industrialization, productivity and create job opportunities. The study emphasizes education and training as the principal learning tools for increasing employment in quantity and quality and promoting improved productivity.

The promotion of person-centered medicine and people-centered healthcare has been occurring in Croatia for decades. Professor Andrija Štampar, considered by many as the father of public health, pioneered various public health projects in Croatia and abroad. Croatia is a country with a long history of patient associations, as well as one with an array of public health projects recognized worldwide. Recently, a group of enthusiasts gathered here to undertake the creation of a variety of projects related to the development of person-centered medicine. The International College on Person Centered Medicine (ICPCM) emerged from the ongoing annual Geneva Conferences and from the aspiration to promote medicine of the person, for the person, by the person, and with the person. The main theme of the First International Congress of the ICPCM in Zagreb in November 2013 was the Whole Person in Health Education and Training.

ABSTRAK Di Indonesia, meskipun sejarah pemijatan berawal dari nenek moyang masa lampau, namun pijat bayi yang diperkenalkan bukanlah pijat tradisional yang dilakukan oleh dukun bayi atau dukun pijat yang pijatannya tidak aman. Pijat bayi yang dimasyarakatkan adalah pijat modern yang memadukan antara ilmiah (kesehatan), seni, dan kasih sayang. Pijat bayi akan membuat bayi tidur lebih lelap dan meningkatkan kosentrasi kesiagaan (alertness) atau kosentrasi. Hal ini disebabkan pijatan dapat mengubah gelombang otak. Pengubahan ini terjadi dengan cara menurunkan gelombang alpha dan peningkatan gelombang beta, serta tetha yang dapat dibuktikan dengan penggunaan EEG (electro enchephalogram). Tujuan kegiatan adalah meningkatkan pengetahuan dan keterampilan ibu dalam melakukan pijat bayi di Desa Pondok Kelapa, Pondok Nias dan Pondok Kemuning Kec. Langsa Baro Kota Langsa. Metode pengabdian yang digunakan dalam kegiatan ini adalah program pendidikan masyarakat melalui edukasi dan pelatihan pijat bayi pada ibu bayi dan balita. Hasil pengabdian kepada masyarakat yang telah dilakukan oleh Dosen Prodi D-III Kebidanan Langsa pada tanggal 30 September s/d 2 Oktober 2020 didapatkan hasil mayoritas peserta pengabdian kepada masyarakat memiliki pengetahuan yang baik tentang pijat bayi yaitu sebanyak 17 orang (56,7%) dan mayoritas terampil dalam melakukan pijat bayi yaitu sebanyak 22 orang (73,3%). Kata Kunci : Pengetahuan, Keterampilan, Pijat Bayi  ABSTRACT In Indonesia, although the history of massage dates back to the ancestors of the past, the baby massage introduced is not a traditional massage performed by a baby shaman or a massage shaman whose massage is not safe. A popularized baby massage is a modern massage that blends scientific (health), art, and compassion. Baby massage will make the baby sleep better and increase alertness or concentration. This is because massage can alter brain waves. This conversion occurs by lowering alpha waves and increasing beta waves, as well as tetha which can be proven by the use of EEG (electroencephalogram). The purpose of the activity is to improve the knowledge and skills of mothers in performing baby massage in Pondok Kelapa Village, Pondok Nias, and Pondok Kemuning Kec. Langsa Baro Langsa City. The method of devotion used in this activity is a community education program through the education and training of baby massage in infants and toddler mothers. The results of community service that has been done by Lecturers of Prodi D-III Midwifery Langsa on September 30 to October 2, 2020, obtained the results of the majority of participants of community service have good knowledge about baby massage that is as many as 17 people (56.7%) and the majority are skilled in performing baby massage that is as many as 22 people (73.3%). Keywords: Knowledge, Skills, Baby Massage

AbstractOne way to anticipate that people are always in preparedness is through comprehensive education and training involving the community, family and schools. The specific purpose was to integrate disaster curricula and learning tools to improve preparedness competencies. Research has been conducted for 4 (four) years from 2013 to 2016 in Elementary Schools, Secondary Schools, and Higher Education in Aceh. The methods used were Research & Development, Classroom Action Research (CAR), and training and simulation. The results of this study found that the conceptual approach to the development of innovative disaster learning models was very helpful in shaping, growing, and increasing student preparedness holistically. The application of disaster curriculum integration, teaching materials, two and three-dimensional learning media, and e-learningbased learning were showed a significant impact on students' preparedness competencies. In addition, competency-based training and simulation activities were also effective in increasing disaster knowledge, attitudes, and community preparedness in educational institutions. This study concluded that the integration of disaster education curriculum & disaster learning devices could be improved preparedness competencies. The planning and design of disaster education curriculum, as well as its application in improving preparedness competencies through education and training/simulation could be carried out comprehensively.   Salah satu cara mengantisipasi agar masyarakat selalu berada dalam kesiapsiagaan adalah melalui pendidikan dan pelatihan yang sifatnya komprehensif dengan melibatkan masyarakat, keluarga, dan sekolah. Tujuan khususnya adalah untuk mengintegrasikan kurikulum kebencanaan dan perangkat pembelajaran untuk meningkatkan kompetensi kesiapsiagaan. Penelitian telah dilakukan selama 4 (empat) tahun sejak 2013 hingga 2016 di Sekolah Dasar, Sekolah Menengah, dan Pendidikan Tinggi di Aceh. Metode yang digunakan adalah Research & Development, Penelitian Tindakan Kelas (PTK), serta pelatihan dan simulasi. Hasil penelitian ini menemukan bahwa pendekatan konsep pengembangan model pembelajaran kebencanaan yang inovatif sangat membantu dalam membentuk, menumbuhkan, dan meningkatkan kesiapsiagaan peserta didik secara holistik. Penerapan integrasi kurikulum kebencanaan, bahan ajar, media belajar dua dan tiga dimensi, serta yang berbasis e-learning menunjukkan dampak yang signifikan terhadap kompetensi kesiapsiagaan peserta didik. Selain itu, kegiatan pelatihan dan simulasi berbasis kompetensi juga efektif terhadap peningkatan pengetahuan kebencanaan, sikap, dan kesiapsiagaan komunitas di lembaga pendidikan. Penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa integrasi kurikulum pendidikan kebencanaan & perangkat pembelajaran kebencanaan, dapat meningkatkan kompetensi kesiapsiagaan. Kegiatan perencanaan dan perancangan kurikulum pendidikan kebencanaan, serta penerapannya dalam peningkatan kompetensi kesiapsiagaan melalui pendidikan dan pelatihan/simulasi dapat dilakukan secara komperehensif.
