Target Lingkungan Hidup (TLH) is an activity under the auspices of the Environmental Engineering Student Association, UPN “Veteran” Jawa Timur, the PSDM Department, which is the application of environmental sciences to conditions in the field. Through this activity students can understand how to identify an environment that is starting to be polluted to heavily polluted. In addition, it can also understand the environmental conditions of the waters upstream and downstream so that they can properly protect the environmental ecosystem.
The theme for this 2022 TLH activity is “Melahirkan Cendekiawan Peduli Alam” or abbreviated as MARCAPADA. Marcapada itself means a place for living things (earth) where living things interact, know each other, and look after each other. Through this theme, it is hoped that by holding TLH 2022, students will be able to go directly into the field to apply environmental knowledge. So that students can become creative and innovative students, especially in the fields of technology and the environment.
