Universitas Pertamina provides free educational opportunities that equip local communities with practical knowledge of good water management. Through school-based education and community training, Universitas Pertamina helps students, teachers, families, and residents understand responsible water use, improve sanitation practices, and maintain community water-filtration facilities.
In 2025, these educational activities were delivered in Barengkok Village, Jasinga District, Bogor Regency, a village supported through Universitas Pertamina’s community development programme. Through WATER FOR ALL! and SABAR (Sanitasi Barengkok), Universitas Pertamina addressed local water and sanitation needs through education for the school community and practical training for residents.

Water Management Education for the School Community

Through WATER FOR ALL! Universitas Pertamina’s Civil Engineering Study Programme delivered free educational sessions for students in grades 1–6 at Barengkok II Public Elementary School, alongside a separate session for teachers, parent representatives, and the school committee.

Responding to challenges in accessing water for everyday sanitation, the sessions covered responsible use of clean water, avoiding unnecessary water consumption, handwashing with soap, appropriate toilet use, and maintaining clean sanitation facilities. The involvement of teachers and families supported the application of these practices at both school and home.

Practical Education on Water Filtration and Maintenance

Universitas Pertamina provided free practical instruction for residents of RT 01/RW 04, Barengkok Village, through SABAR. The initiative formed part of LIGHT UP 2025, a student-led community service programme carried out in Barengkok as a village supported by Universitas Pertamina’s community development programme. 
During a training session, the student team used the installed solar-powered filtration system at Sumur Berenuk to explain water-filtration principles, component functions, operating procedures, routine maintenance, and basic troubleshooting.

Community representatives also received a Maintenance, Management, and Construction Guide for a Simple Water-Filtration System, containing daily, weekly, and monthly maintenance instructions and guidance on recording maintenance activities. RT and RW leaders served as local coordinators to support continued upkeep.

Together, these programmes provided local communities with accessible learning opportunities covering both responsible daily water use and practical management of water infrastructure. Free instruction, written guidance, and local coordination supported the continued application of this knowledge beyond the educational sessions.
