Free Drinking Water for Students, Staff, Lecturers, and Visitors

Universitas Islam Sultan Agung (UNISSULA) provides free drinking water as part of its commitment to health, wellbeing, and a supportive campus environment. During the 2025 reporting year, free drinking water was made available not only to lecturers and staff, but also to students and campus visitors.

This provision is implemented through drinking-water facilities and bottled drinking water provided by the university in academic, administrative, and public service areas. Although some of the drinking water is procured by the university from external suppliers, it is distributed and made available free of charge to users on campus.

Scope of Access

The provision of free drinking water at UNISSULA covers:

• Students, who may access drinking water during academic activities and while using campus facilities;
• Lecturers, who are provided drinking water in offices, meeting spaces, and academic activities;
• Staff and employees, who receive drinking water during daily work and institutional activities;
• Visitors, who are also served through drinking-water provision in reception, meeting, and service areas.

This demonstrates that access to drinking water is not limited to internal staff only, but is part of a broader campus service available to the university community and guests.

Forms of Provision

UNISSULA provides drinking water in several practical forms, including:

• bottled drinking water distributed in offices and meeting rooms;
• drinking water made available during seminars, meetings, and campus events;
• campus drinking-water facilities associated with the UNISSULA water system;
• water provision points that support routine academic and administrative activities.

Photographic evidence shows drinking water provided in university spaces, including bottled water distributed free for use on campus. Additional documentation also shows the presence of the QUASA drinking-water facility, which supports safe drinking-water provision within the UNISSULA environment.

Support for Health and Wellbeing

Providing free drinking water is an important part of creating a healthy campus. Adequate hydration supports concentration, productivity, and wellbeing for all campus users, including students in lectures, lecturers in teaching activities, staff in administrative work, and visitors attending university events or services.

By ensuring access to drinking water at no cost, UNISSULA supports a more inclusive and comfortable campus environment.

Institutional Commitment

The free drinking-water provision reflects UNISSULA’s institutional commitment to campus welfare and basic service accessibility. Even when drinking water is purchased by the university, the final access point for students, staff, lecturers, and visitors remains free of charge.

This means the university bears the cost of provision while users benefit directly from free access to safe drinking water.

2025 Implementation

During the 2025 reporting year, UNISSULA actively provided free drinking water across campus functions and facilities. This included water provision for:

• academic activities;
• offices and staff workspaces;
• meetings and seminars;
• public-facing service areas; and
• university events attended by internal and external participants.

The provision therefore meets the intent of the indicator by showing that UNISSULA provides free drinking water for multiple campus user groups, including students, staff, lecturers, and visitors.
