Cases of sexual violence against early childhood in Indonesia remain high, while children's understanding of body boundaries and parents' readiness to provide sexual education are still limited. This study aims to design an educational medium in the form of motion graphics to convey body boundary concepts to young children through parental guidance. The research employs a qualitative method with the Multimedia Development Life Cycle (MDLC) approach, which includes the stages of concept, design, material collecting, assembly, testing, and distribution. Data collection techniques consist of literature study, observation, and questionnaires conducted in the Kejawan Putih Tambak area. The findings indicate that children still have difficulty understanding body boundary concepts, while parents are aware of the importance of early sexual education but feel hesitant and uncomfortable delivering it. The developed motion graphics media is considered effective as it presents information in an engaging, communicative, and easily understandable way. Therefore, motion graphics can serve as an effective solution to assist parents in delivering sexual education to children from an early age. 

The number of cases of sexual violence against children in Indonesia remains alarming, particularly among elementary school-aged children. One factor contributing to children's high vulnerability is a lack of understanding of body boundaries and self-protection. Furthermore, education about the body and self-protection is often considered taboo, resulting in inadequate communication with children. This article discusses the application of a positive narrative approach in writing an educational animation script entitled "Aku Jaga Tubuhku" (I Take Care of My Body) as a self-protection literacy medium for children aged 6–9 years. The research used a descriptive method, outlining the script design process through pre-production, production, and post-production stages. The positive narrative approach was implemented through the development of story, dialogue, characters, and conflict that emphasize child empowerment without creating excessive fear. The results indicate that this approach can help children understand the concepts of body boundaries, safe touch, and unsafe touch in a more concrete and emotionally secure manner. The integration of song elements as memory aids also strengthens children's understanding and retention of the message. Thus, writing an animation script based on a positive narrative can be an effective educational communication strategy for conveying self-protection literacy to elementary school-aged children.

This article examines in depth the concept of protecting human dignity through the regulation of gaze and physical contact among mahram according to the Shafi‘i School of Islamic law. From an Islamic perspective, the preservation of dignity (ḥifẓ al-‘irḍ) occupies a highly fundamental position as part of the objectives of Islamic law, particularly in regulating social relations and family interactions. Although mahram relationships legally allow closer interaction, Islam continues to establish ethical boundaries to safeguard purity and moral values. This study is a normative legal research employing conceptual and normative-fiqh approaches, relying on primary sources such as the Qur’an, the Prophetic traditions (hadith), and classical as well as contemporary Shafi‘i jurisprudential literature. The findings indicate that the Shafi‘i School does not regard mahram relations as a sphere of absolute and unrestricted freedom, but instead provides clear regulations concerning gaze and physical contact. Visual interaction is permitted in a limited manner, restricted to certain parts of the body and subject to the condition that it does not provoke desire or potential moral temptation (fitnah). Meanwhile, physical contact is regulated more strictly and, in principle, is only permitted in situations of legitimate shar‘i necessity, such as medical treatment or emergency circumstances. Therefore, the regulation of gaze and physical contact among mahram in the Shafi‘i School functions as an instrument for protecting human dignity, preserving the sanctity of family relationships, and preventing behavioral deviations from an early stage.

Diabetes mellitus is a chronic disorder that arises when the pancreas does not produce enough insulin or when the body cannot use the insulin it produces properly, diabetic ulcers also referred to as diabetic foot ulcers, are medical conditions characterized by chronic, non-healing, sunken ulcers with edema with clear boundaries. Wounds in diabetic patients occur due to partial or complete damage to the skin that extends to the tissue under the skin, tendons, muscles, bones, or joints that occur in a person suffering from diabetes mellitus. Wound care that is currently developing is modern wound care which has a better rate of development of diabetic wound repair compared to using conventional wound care. The use of dressings must be considered to maintain wound moisture balance, one of the dressings that can be used is zinc cream as a primary dressing. Purpose: To prevent infection and help accelerate granulation growth in diabetic foot wound patients using zinc cream. Methods: By means of data collection and observation using case studies and subjects in diabetic foot wound patients with nursing problems of skin / tissue integrity disorders. Results: After taking wound care measures using zinc cream primary dressing for 12 times in 6 weeks there is a BWAT value in the dorsum pedis area from 37 to 22 and in the planta pedis area from 39 to 24. Conclusion: Treatment using zinc cream as a primary dressing proved effective in accelerating the healing process of diabetic foot wounds.

This study aims to examine how the image of the Besikama people is formed and interpreted through the Hamis Batar tradition, a sacred sacrificial ritual. Using ethnographic methods, this study delves into the cultural practices and spiritual beliefs of the Besikama people, particularly in the context of their interactions with things considered sacred. This analysis utilizes the theoretical scalpel of “the look of the Sacred” introduced by Robert A. Orsi, a concept that goes beyond visual representation to understand a deeper relationship between humans and the divine, or “body beyond the image.” Initial findings indicate that Hamis Batar is not simply a series of ceremonies, but rather a space where the boundaries between the visible (body rituals, offerings) and the invisible (spiritual power, ancestral presence) are blurred. The Besikama people not only look at something sacred, but they also experience and shape it through actions, emotions, and physical sensations. Thus, the image formed is not a static representation, but a dynamic and living reality, continuously constructed and articulated through the practice of Hamis Batar. This research contributes to a richer understanding of how ritual can serve as a vehicle for experiencing and negotiating sacred meaning, going beyond mere symbolism.

This journal explores the role of the Church Unity Body in strengthening the unity of Christian faith. The Church, as the body of Christ composed of various members from diverse backgrounds and traditions, is called to unite in one faith, one teaching, and one way of life aligned with the teachings of Christ. This unity is crucial for maintaining harmony within the community of believers and for addressing social and theological challenges in the modern world.The role of the Church Unity Body is evident through Bible teaching based on enduring truth, participation in sacraments such as Holy Communion and Baptism, as well as collaboration among churches in social service and mission. In this context, the church functions not only as a place of worship but also as a community that supports spiritual growth and the well-being of its members. The unity of Christian faith requires mutual respect, forgiveness, and humility among church members. By strengthening this unity, the church can provide a clearer testimony to the world, demonstrating that in Christ, differences can be reconciled in love that transcends all.

This abstract discusses the characteristics of the true church according to Christian views, emphasizing the importance of faithfulness to the Word of God as the primary foundation. The true church is a community that faithfully proclaims the Gospel of Christ purely, without addition or subtraction from the teachings of the Bible. This faithfulness serves as the basis for the church’s existence as the living body of Christ, functioning to spread salvation to all people. Besides faithfulness to the Word, the proper administration of the sacraments is also an important characteristic of the true church. Sacraments such as baptism and the Lord’s Supper are conducted according to Christ’s commands and serve as means of grace that strengthen the faith of the congregation. The spiritual discipline practiced within the church maintains the holiness of the members and encourages repentance and restoration, so that the community continues to live in truth and love. Unity and holiness reflect the church’s calling to live in love and truth, while the apostolic nature shows its adherence to the teachings of the apostles. Catholicity affirms that the true church is universal and transcends cultural and geographical boundaries.

The Era of the 4.0 Industrial Revolution has transformed various aspects of life, particularly with the advent of Artificial Intelligence (AI), which brings innovation and efficiency to sectors such as healthcare, education, and governance. However, the rapid development of AI also presents challenges related to law and ethics that must be addressed, such as legal responsibility for damages caused, secure management of personal data, and ethical boundaries regarding technological intervention. This article aims to discuss the legal and ethical issues surrounding the use of AI in Indonesia, focusing on the importance of developing an adaptive legal framework and the application of appropriate ethical principles. This research uses a normative research method with a regulatory approach and a conceptual approach. The discussion covers the definition of AI, legal and ethical challenges in its use, and recommendations for responsible technology implementation. The findings suggest that to ensure fair and sustainable use of AI, Indonesia needs to strengthen existing regulations, raise ethical awareness in society, and establish a dedicated regulatory body for AI technology.

Sexual education for children, especially girls, is an important aspect in efforts to protect themselves from social risks such as harassment, violence, and exploitation. This article aims to examine the urgency of integrating sexual education into the basic education system as a strategic preventive measure. The method used is library research by reviewing various scientific literature, reference books, and education policy documents. The results of the study show that many parents still have a wrong understanding of sexual education, so discussions about the body, privacy, and social boundaries are often avoided. In fact, sexual education that is delivered appropriately according to the stages of child development can increase self-awareness, build self-confidence, and strengthen children's communication skills in dealing with risky social situations. Schools have a strategic role as a safe and conducive educational environment in introducing the concept of sexuality in a healthy and responsible manner. Therefore, sexual education should be an integral part of the national curriculum in order to support optimal child growth and development and protect them from various forms of violence.

This study aims to reveal the creative process behind the creation of the Bayu Akasa instrument, an organological innovation based on bamboo by contemporary artist Mugiyono Kasido. Through a qualitative approach using case study methods, this study examines two crucial stages in the creation of the work, namely the material exploration phase and the experimentation with physical techniques. Data was collected through in-depth observation of the subject's performance, documentation of the rehearsal process, and interviews regarding the philosophical and technical aspects of sound production. The results of the study show that: (1) The material exploration stage produced a 2-meter-long aerophone instrument made of petung bamboo with a diameter of 5.9–7.9 inches, designed with an integral three-part system; (2) The experimentation with playing techniques focused on mastering circular breathing or ngunjal, which enables the production of continuous meditative drone sounds without pause; (3) This innovation represents a blurring of the boundaries between choreographic and musical aspects, in which the instrument is no longer treated as a static object but as a somatic extension of the artist's body. These findings confirm that Bayu Akasa is not just an ordinary wind instrument, but a representation of space (Akasa) and breath (Bayu) manifested in a radical performative unity. This research contributes to the development of contemporary organology based on local materials in Indonesia.
