CSR PT. DANONE AQUA
Program “1L Aqua untuk 10L Air Bersih”
Binahidra Logiardi, Sustainable Development & Social Responsibility, DANONE AQUA, menjelaskan ” Air merupakan kebutuhan mendasar bagi kita semua, namun tidak semua orang bisa mengakses air bersih dalam kehidupannya sehari-hari. Banyak daerah di berbagai belahan dunia, termasuk di Indonesia, yang mengalami kesulitan untuk memperoleh air dikarenakan topografi daerah tersebut membutuhkan sistem infrastruktur pasokan air bersih untuk memungkinkan masyarakat sekitar agar dapat mengakses air bersih tersebut. Selain akses air bersih, sanitasi, kesehatan lingkungan serta peningkatan kesejahteraan masyarakat pra sejahtera juga merupakan hal penting, kesemuanya ini saling terkait. Air merupakan kehidupan, sanitasi merupakan martabat, keduanya mendukung tercapainya kesehatan lingkungan yang berkesinambungan yang pada akhirnya juga akan memberi kontribusi pada tercapainya pengembangan kesejahteraan masyarakat dunia”.
Binahidra menambahkan, “AQUA memiliki program CSR yang disebut WASH (Water Access, Sanitation, Hygiene Program) yang bertujuan untuk meningkatkan lingkungan bagi masyarakat pra-sejahtera. Melalui program WASH, AQUA berkontribusi secara aktif dan berkelanjutan untuk memberikan solusi atas berbagai permasalahan yang berkaitan dengan penyediaan air bersih di Indonesia”. Salah satu program WASH adalah program Satu untuk Sepuluh ini. Program Satu untuk Sepuluh sejalan dan mendukung program Millenium Development Goals (MDGs) yang dicanangkan oleh PBB guna memerangi kemiskinan dan kelaparan di berbagai belahan dunia dengan target di tahun 2015.
Sesuai dengan kriteria penulisan tugas yang telah ditentukan, penulis akan menganalisis program Aqua “1L Aqua untuk 10L Air Bersih” ini berdasarkan unsur-unsur sebagai berikut:
· Spesifik
Kegiatan ini terspesifikasi dengan jelas, dimana Aqua mengupayakan program pengadaan air bersih bagi masyarakat di daerah yang mengalami kesulitan iar bersih yaitu di Timor Tengah Selatan, NTT. Progaram ini sesuai dengan citra produk yang dihasilkan Aqua yaitu air mineral. Sudah selayaknya Aqua sebagai sebagai salah satu produk air mineral terkemuka di Indonesia melakukan program CSR yang berhubungan dengan produk yang diproduksinya, yaitu air. Mengingat air bersih merupakan salah satu komoditas utama yang sangat penting bagi masyarakat luas.
Masih banyak daerah di Indonesia yang kesulitan mendapat akses air bersih. Padahal, air bersih merupakan faktor penting untuk mewujudkan hidup sehat. Di beberapa daerah di Nusa Tenggara Timur masih banyak warganya yang mengalami kelangkaan air bersih. Untuk mendapatkan air bersih, tak jarang mereka harus berjalan kaki dengan jarak yang jauh. Alhasil, banyak anak-anak yang kehilangan waktu bermain karena harus mengambil air. Di salah satu desa di Timor Tengah Selatan (TTS), Nusa Tenggara Timur, jarak sumber air dengan rumah penduduk sangat jauh. “Dibutuhkan satu jam untuk pergi pulang membawa air dalam jerigen tiap harinya,” ujar Sustainable Development & CSR Aqua Danone Indonesia Binahidra Logiardi.
Kelangkaan air bersih memang menjadi sumber munculnya berbagai persoalan di Timor Tengah Selatan NTT. Masa depan sekolah tak terurus karena anak-anak harus berkonsentrasi penuh mencari air bersih. Belum lagi penyakit demam berdarah, malaria, dan diare akut silih berganti mendera mereka. “Berangkat dari situlah, Aqua Danone Indonesia melalui Aqua untuk Anak Indonesia (AuAI) berkomitmen aktif membantu memperbaiki kesejahteraan anak Indonesia.
