The material session was the core of the event with a focus on a healthy lifestyle. The counseling material was delivered by three committee representatives, namely, Adhelya Putri Fatma Iqlima, Inara Perdana Kurnia, and Syakirah Aghniyya. The material includes an introduction to nutritious foods, strategies for avoiding smoking, and the importance of consuming enough water in maintaining a healthy body. To keep the event fun and interactive, we also included an ice breaking session that involved all participants. In this session, there are various exciting games with attractive prizes for participants who win. We hope that with this interaction, participants can be more active and involved in the event.

The event closed with an evaluation session in the form of a post test to measure the understanding that participants had gained during the event. The distribution of food was also the closing part of the event, and we also provided the opportunity to chat casually and share experiences with the students and female students.

We invite the whole community to work together to build a healthy lifestyle. Let's make health the main investment for a better future.
