In the
situation of the COVID-19 pandemic, maternal and infant mortality rates have
soared. The maternal mortality rate increased by 300 cases from 2019 to around
4,400 deaths in 2020 while infant mortality in 2019 by around 26,000 cases
increased by almost 40 percent to 44,000 cases in 2020.
1. BASIC RIGHTS


2. SUSTAINABLE LIVELYHOOD
- Promote sustainable consumption and production patterns.
- Developing a conservation-based economy.
- Develop regenerative agriculture.
- Developing a community-based circular economy.
3. CLIMATE ACTION
The
world is now 1.2C warmer than it was in the 19th century - and the amount of
CO2 in the atmosphere has increased by 50%. Climate change is already
affecting our lives and if left unchecked, humans and nature will experience
catastrophic warming, severe droughts, greater sea level rise, and species
extinction. Temperature rise must slow down if we are to avoid the worst consequences
of climate change. Global warming needs to be kept at 1.5C by 2100.
An
increase in air temperature causes more water to evaporate. This is where the
potential for a water crisis will occur. The availability of water in Indonesia
is decreasing from year to year. Of the six major islands in Indonesia, Java
has the lowest water availability. By 2035, according to LIPI's prediction, the
availability of water on the most populous island is estimated at 1,118 cubic
meters per capita per year. Meanwhile, the minimum air supply standard is 2,000
cubic meters per capita per year. Whereas the population of Java Island is
56.10 percent or 151.59 million people with an area of 7 percent of the
entire territory of Indonesia. Water quality is also expected to decline
significantly.
Climate
change has a greater impact on the poor and vulnerable groups such as women,
children, toddlers, disabled etc). This is because their resources and
adaptability are very limited. What is currently needed is the commitment of
all parties, including the government, companies, households and individuals to
start making changes by implementing a lifestyle approach, sustainable
production and consumption patterns, divesting fossil resources and reducing
greenhouse gas emissions policies.
- Conducting popular
education and mobilizing young people to become actors of change and
change lifestyles starting from themselves and the community.
- Developing multimedia
materials and facilitating space for youth, students and university
students for a more massive campaign.
- Advocating to governments,
companies and communities to implement low carbon policies and programs.
- Advocating on water
conservation to maintain the carrying capacity of the Java Island with the
largest population in Indonesia.
