UM Lecturers Strengthen Health Literacy of Indonesian Migrant Workers in Taiwan
Published
Lecturers from the Faculty of Health Sciences (FIK) and the Faculty of Medicine (FK) at Universitas Negeri Malang (UM) carried out activities to strengthen the health literacy of Indonesian migrant workers in Taiwan. The activities aim to improve the health knowledge and awareness of the migrant workers.
One part of these activities is reproductive health education. In addition, the activities also include health education and screening. Through these activities, the workers are expected to better understand the importance of looking after their own health while working abroad.
Indonesian migrant workers constitute a considerably large group in Taiwan. They often face challenges in accessing health information, mainly due to language differences and differences in the health service system. Therefore, health education that is easy to understand is important.
The community service activities by UM lecturers demonstrate the role of higher education institutions in supporting public health, including Indonesian citizens working overseas. Further information about the results of these activities can be followed through the official sources of Universitas Negeri Malang.
