Restoring Children's Future: UNPRI Students' Study House Launches as an Impactful Initiative in Aceh Tamiang
UNPRI Students’ Portable Learning House Restores Education for 50 Children Following Aceh Tamiang Floods
Medan, July 13, 2026 — A team of students from Universitas Prima Indonesia (UNPRI) has successfully provided an innovative solution for children affected by flash floods in Kota Lintang Village, Aceh Tamiang Regency, through the "Portable Learning House" program. This initiative is part of the 2026 Student Impact Program (PMB) supported by the Ministry of Higher Education, Science, and Technology (Kemdiktisaintek).
Through one month of intensive mentorship, the program achieved a 28.1% increase in literacy and numeracy scores among elementary school-aged participants. Moreover, the students' learning motivation index soared from 2.7 to 4.1 on a 1–5 scale. This success demonstrates the effectiveness of adaptive learning spaces during post-disaster recovery.
Team Leader Dr. Yeni Ariesa, S.E., M.Si., M.M., explained that the Portable Learning House is designed as a modular tent that can be assembled by four people in under 90 minutes. "Children need routine. When schools are not yet fully operational, quick-access learning spaces near evacuation sites are exactly what they need," she stated.
Over the course of a month, more than 20 learning sessions were held with an average attendance rate of 87.4%. In addition to disaster-themed literacy modules, the team conducted eight psychosocial recovery sessions involving storytelling, art therapy, and peer group activities to support the children's mental well-being.
The program resulted in seven social technology products, including the Portable Learning House unit, disaster-themed teaching modules, an information system for tracking affected children, and scholarly articles. This initiative aligns with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and supports the national agenda for human resource development. The team hopes this model can be replicated in other disaster-prone villages through collaboration with local governments and BPBD.
