Tzu Ching UNPRI Hosts WAVES 2026: Encouraging the Youth to Become Earth Heroes Through Tangible Waste Segregation Actions

UNPRI's Commitment to Environmental Sustainability and Fostering a Culture of Social Responsibility Among the Younger Generation.

Medan, March 29, 2026 — The student community of Universitas Prima Indonesia, Tzu Ching UNPRI, successfully organized the WAVES (We Are Vegetarians and Earth Saviors) event at the Tzu Chi Environmental Sustainability Depot, Jl. Cemara Boulevard, Medan. Held from 08.30 to 12.00 WIB, this activity is a concrete manifestation of youth concern for environmental preservation. This proves UNPRI's commitment as a campus that continues to innovate in facilitating student talent.

The event opened with an educational session led by Mariany, a Tzu Chi volunteer, regarding waste sorting techniques — from plastic bottles to other recyclables. This education is designed for participants to understand that sorting waste is a form of responsibility toward the earth. This initiative shows UNPRI's role in supporting students' ecological awareness to produce competent and high-quality graduates.

"Hopefully, Tzu Ching can continue to inspire and carry on this activity consistently, as environmental preservation is vital," said Mariany. The coordinator, Vivian, expressed pride in learning about leadership through this event. Similarly, Vellawati shared how she learned the importance of recycling for a cleaner world. This is in line with UNPRI's Sociotechnopreneurship vision in responding to global environmental challenges through real student action.

The WAVES activity aligns with the spirit of preserving the earth. Through this simple yet meaningful action, Tzu Ching UNPRI hopes to inspire a younger generation brave enough to take real action as earth heroes. Realize your competent and high-quality professional future with the Sociotechnopreneurship vision at UNPRI.
