In order to create a healthier and smarter young generation, Rifka Annisa, through its “Goes to School” Program, visited SMKN 1 Wonosari. The event was held on Friday, September 2, 2016 at Al - Ikhlas Mosque in Wonosari ,Gunung Kidul. It was attended by approximately 800 students from year 10 and year 11 as well as teachers from SMKN 1 Wonosari.

The event, with the slogan “Pergaulan Sehat, Prestasi Hebat”, was filled with lots of crucial information regarding how to use the Internet wisely, adolescent development, as well as some short videos that are related to teenager’s issues lately.  The students were not only given those materials but there was also an interactive dialogue in which the students got the chance to express their opinions and ask questions.  There were also rewards for those who are active. On top of that the event was even more fun when they were singing together.

Rifka Annisa Goes to School program aims to introduce the material relating to gender issues. The expected output from the event was for students to recognize, to prevent and then to understand what to do when they face any kind of violence.  A light and interesting delivery was expected to help the audiences understand the content of the event.

The event was also attended by the Vice Principal of SMKN 1 Wonosari, Bapak Ramto who expressed his hope that none of the students would ever experience any kinds of violence. He also hoped that the cooperation with Rifka Annisa would not stop here. Further activities should be held in order to prevent violence against women and children.
