Institutional Enhancement through Green School Program in Order to Achieving “Sekolah Adiwiyata”

“Sekolah Adiwiyata” or green school, is a program implemented in Indonesia as part of efforts to integrate environmental education and sustainability into the formal education system. Internalization and implementation are not limited to students alone but also involve teachers, parents, and other school community members. Additionally, the concept of green schools is internalized and implemented in the teaching curriculum. SD Muhammadiyah 24 Surakarta is one of the elementary schools that has begun implementing the green concept. However, in this case study, there are several issues in the implementation of the green concept in the school, such as readiness in terms of human resources, school management, and low information systems. In order to assist in resolving these issues, the P2AD Management team from UMS conducted institutional enhancement at SD Muhammadiyah 24 Surakarta through several work programs of community development such as green school workshops, assistance in designing the school website, and providing three-color waste bins (organic, inorganic, hazardous) along with explanations on their use. The method used in implementing the service program includes preparation and coordination, program implementation, evaluation, and monitoring.
