Professor Ahmad Yunus of Sebelas Maret University, Indonesia, visited the Health Administration Center at Gifu University

On August 5, Professor Ahmad Yunus of Sebelas Maret University in Indonesia, visited the Health Administration Center at Gifu University to find out what "lifelong health promotion for university students" actually entailed. His roles as a chair and the Director of the UNS Graduate School both involve education management and student support. We are very proud of the high-quality annual health checkups and continuing support provided for all university students.

Director and Professor Mayumi Yamamoto and Associate Professor Akihiro Nishio showed the services that provides annual health checkups, student health care, and mental health support. He was so impressed by high level of Japanese student health administration system and he expressed to a wish to launch similar activities in Indonesia. We took him to see the counseling rooms to discuss campus-wide smoking ban and mental health provisions. We hope that Gifu and Sebelas Maret University will exchange information in the future. Since Sebelas Maret University chairs the College Association of Indonesia, he would like to recommend the association to create some kind of Indonesia University Health Association as same as Japan University Health Association (JUHA) .

Local media, Gifu and Chunichi newspapers, were informed of this official visit on August 6th and 7th.
