SCSH 1201 - Sustainable Development

17 May 2023     As per Prof Dr Suhaimi has informed us, on 17 May 2023 we will be having a mid term test which covers from topic week 1 to week 9 and the percentage for this test was 15%. Before start the quiz, Dr has provided us the google link form to answers the question. There are about 55 questions provided with 53 multiple choice questions and the rest were short answers. One of the short questions was asked to describe our sustainable group project. My group members have decided to choose “Declutter and Save Storage For Used Clothes in IIUM Gombak” for our project. The more stuff we have, the more waste we produce. But when we declutter it forces you to take a closer look at your spending and living habits. It also can help you to identify ways you can cut costs, reduce your waste output and even ways of consuming less energy.  In line to sustainable development goal number 12, responsible consumption and production. SDG 12 recognizes how we produce and consum...

 3 May 2023  Today's topic is mainly focused on two SDGs which are SDG 16 and SDG 17. Goal 16 is about promoting peaceful and inclusive societies, providing access to justice for all and building effective, accountable and inclusive institutions at all levels. People everywhere should be free of fear from all forms of violence and feel safe as they go about their lives whatever their ethnicity, faith or sexual orientation.  High levels of armed violence and insecurity have a destructive impact on a country’s development. Sexual violence, crime, exploitation and torture are prevalent where there is conflict or no rule of law. Governments, civil society and communities need to work together to find lasting solutions to conflict and insecurity. Strengthening the rule of law and promoting human rights is key to this process, as is reducing the flow of illicit arms, combating corruption, and ensuring inclusive participation at all times. SDG 17 calls for a global partnership f...

19 April 2023 Today’s class Prof Dr Suhaimi asked us to watch a recorded lecture and write comments based on that video.After I watched the lecture, I have learned about three important figures of challenges to sustainability development which are economic, social and environmental that give big impact in our lives. These 3 aspects have their own challenges that we should cater to and look into to provide a better future for our next generations. There are 4 general challenges that give inequalities to those less fortunate in terms of educational resources, health facilities, food and clean water. As human beings, these are the basic things that we need in our everyday lives that give an effect to our growth development but unfortunately some people don't get sufficient need as other people and that is categorised as unsustainable. On top of that, there are key challenges in order to achieve sustainable development which are instability, inability to do the implementati...

 12 April 2023        This is our 6 weeks of class. As usual before beginning of the class, we will recite Surah Al-Fatihah then Prof Suhaimi will read the meaning of that surah.        On 12 April 2023, we learned about Roles of Universities and Sustainable Development. At the beginning of the class, Prof Suhaimi divided us into several groups to discuss a few questions and my group was assigned to give opinion and answers to the third question “Do you think you are being educated to be a balanced person or being prepared for job’s employability?”       In my opinion,Yes, I agree that being educated is another step toward a balanced person. This is because throughout my learning, I gain many skills, knowledge and experience which help me both in my career and in life in general. Education is an influential step in staying competitive and enhancing our skills. Whether we’re starting out in our career or returning to contin...

  5 April 2023   In our fifth class, we learned about the concept of Sejahtera from different perspectives and how to practise Sejahtera in our daily life. The word Sejahtera itself originates from Malay Language that defines as aman, makmur, sentosa, senang, tenteram, terpelihara daripada kesusahan. Sejahtera conveys the meaning of prosperous and prosperous, happy and peaceful, preserved from the disaster.

From an economic aspect, it encourages wealth and economic advancement with increasing access to financial services and resources, supporting small business and producing more job employment. Last but not least, in environmental perspectives, Sejahtera means preservation and conservation of the natural environment including reducing pollution, protecting natural resources as well as pro...
