To strengthen access to essential academic and non-academic resources, the Faculty of Fisheries and Marine Sciences (FPK), Universitas Airlangga (Unair), through its Student Executive Board (BEM FPK), has launched an innovative initiative titled Warung Informasi. This program serves as a dynamic platform designed to help students easily obtain up-to-date information related not only to academic activities and schedules but also to competitions, scholarships, and student development opportunities. By fostering an open and informative environment, Warung Informasi underscores FPK Unair’s commitment to nurturing well-informed, proactive, and empowered students.
The implementation of Warung Informasi utilizes various social media platforms to ensure wide and efficient information dissemination across the FPK student body. Through Instagram, WhatsApp groups, and other digital channels, the program delivers real-time updates in an accessible and engaging format. Its content is regularly refreshed to align with students’ evolving needs and to reflect ongoing developments within the faculty and broader academic landscape. The initiative’s digital-first approach ensures inclusivity, enabling all students to access information easily, regardless of time and location.
Beyond being an information-sharing channel, Warung Informasi also encourages student participation through open collaboration. Students are invited to contribute ideas, share relevant news, and provide feedback that could benefit their peers. This interactive model promotes two-way communication, fostering a stronger sense of belonging and community within the faculty. By facilitating active engagement, the program nurtures a collaborative culture that values transparency, peer learning, and mutual support among students.
The broader goal of Warung Informasi is to enhance information literacy and communication culture among FPK Unair students. Through this initiative, the faculty aims to build an academic ecosystem that is not only informative and open but also supportive of personal and professional growth. The program reflects a holistic approach to student development—bridging academic knowledge with social interaction and collective empowerment. With continued innovation and strong community involvement, Warung Informasi is expected to evolve into a sustainable student-led knowledge hub that contributes meaningfully to academic excellence and student advancement at FPK Unair.
