Universitas Negeri Semarang (UNNES) continued its commitment to responsible water use and environmental conservation throughout 2025 through various initiatives across its faculties and campus facilities. As a Conservation University, UNNES promotes water sustainability not only through infrastructure improvements but also by encouraging behavioral change and active participation among its academic community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Providing Drinking Water Facilities to Encourage Sustainable Consumption<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The Faculty of Languages and Arts (FBS) introduced free drinking water taps in building corridors and waiting areas starting in October 2025. This facility encourages students and staff to bring and refill reusable tumblers, helping reduce dependence on bottled drinking water and minimize plastic waste.<\/p>\n\n\n

The Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences (FMIPA) also supported sustainable water management by providing ready-to-drink water stations. These drinking water facilities underwent laboratory testing to ensure water quality and provide safer access to drinking water for the campus community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Promoting Water-Saving Awareness in Daily Campus Activities<\/h4>\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

The Faculty of Economics and Business (FEB) promoted water-saving behavior through educational messages displayed in toilet and ablution areas. These messages remind students, lecturers, and staff to use water wisely and avoid unnecessary waste in their daily activities. FEB also installed sensor-based faucets to reduce water consumption by controlling water flow and preventing unnecessary water use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Monitoring Water Consumption to Improve Efficiency<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The Faculty of Law (FH) contributed to more efficient water management by implementing systematic recording and evaluation of water consumption. This approach supports the monitoring of water use, provides a basis for evaluating efficiency, and contributes to the university\u2019s commitment to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Preserving Water Resources through Campus Cultural Traditions<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Beyond facility-based and educational initiatives, UNNES also maintains a cultural approach to water conservation. On 3 December 2025, the Rector and members of the university community held the traditional \u201cTawu Sendang Alit\u201d <\/strong>ceremony near the UNNES Women\u2019s Dormitory in Kalisegoro, Gunungpati. The activity represented a collective expression of appreciation and commitment to preserving springs and water resources within the campus environment.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Together, these initiatives demonstrate UNNES’s integrated approach to campus water conservation, combining access to drinking water, water-saving education, consumption monitoring, and cultural traditions. Through continued participation across faculties and university leadership, UNNES seeks to foster a stronger culture of responsible water use and ensure that water conservation remains an integral part of everyday campus life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
