Hello, CIMSA!
Reproductive health is a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity, in all matters relating to the reproductive system and to its functions and processes. Reproductive health refers to the condition of male and female reproductive systems during all life stages. These systems are made of organs and hormone-producing glands, including the pituitary gland in the brain. Ovaries in females and testicles in males are reproductive organs, or gonads, that maintain health of their respective systems. They also function as glands because they produce and release hormones.
Reproductive disorders affect millions of Indonesians each year. Therefore, sexual education is important to be taught to everyone including young adults and student. CIMSA ULM held an activity PROTECT cooperating with SMPN 27 Banjarmasin community as a form of community development. This event was held on Saturday, 10 September 2022 which attended by 22 Junior Highschool student and 2 teachers.
This event contains a talk show with our speaker dr Ghina whom carries an interesting topic about reproductive health followed by a QnA session. In this event there are also pretest and posttest sessions so that we can find out the development of knowledge gained after participating in this activity. In the middle of the event, theres an icebreaking which the participant play a game called "may touch, no touch" led by Divandila and Nita followed by a game called "Myth or Fact" about reproductive health led by Putri and Nuna. The students were enthusiastic in participating throughout the event. At the end of the session there was a distribution of certificates to the speakers and a photo with the participants and the committee.
