Kegiatan ini dilaksanakan oleh mahasiswa program minor NHL Stenden University of Applied Science (NHL Stenden) Belanda, berkolaborasi dengan mahasiswa Universitas Triatma Mulya (UNTRIM) Bali. Komunitas kegiatan adalah warga Desa Wisata Cepaka di kecamatan Kediri kabupaten Tabanan propinsi Bali. Kegiatan ini bertujuan untuk sharing ilmu dengan mengajar komunitas anak-anak sekolah di balai banjar (RW). Implementasi teori yoga ketawa dan meditasi deberikan pada komunitas para warga lajut usia (LANSIA). Kelompok mahasiswa yang terdiri dari tim NHL Stenden dan UNTRIM mengajar anak-anak dan mengajar LANSIA di empat banjar (RW) secara bergiliran. Proses mengajar dilakukan secara tatap muka atau berinterasi langsung.  Hasil projek ini menunjukkan bahwa kebermanfaatan interaksi antara mahasiswa asing dengan masyarakat lokal dalam konteks pembelajaran bagi anak sekolah, berdampak positif dalam pengembangan wawasan internasional mereka. Pembelajaran budaya, interaksi sosial dengan orang asing, memberi dampak positif pada peningkatan kualitas hidup bagi LANSIA.  Secara simultan kegiatan mengajar dan berbagi dengan LANSIA di desa oleh mahasiswa NHL Stenden dan mahasiswa UNTRIM berkontribusi secara resiprokal bagi kedua belah pihak. Proyek ini juga memberi nilai tambah dan manfaat bagi peningkatan citra desa Cepaka di lingkungan desa-desa lain khususnya desa yang ada di kecamatan Kediri. Program “Giving Back To The Community (GBTTC)” memberi manfaat dan pengalaman baru bagi semua pihak : Mahasiswa, Kampus, Desa dan Komunitas.Giving Back To The Community (GBTTC) is the implementation of the Ministry of Education and Culture's Independent Learning Campus (MBKM) program. This activity was carried out by students of the Dutch NHL Stenden University of Applied Science (NHL Stenden) minor program in collaboration with students of Triatma Mulya University (UNTRIM) Bali. This activity aims to share knowledge by teaching school children at Balai Banjar (RW) and implementing the theory of laughter yoga and meditation for the ELDERLY. The method of this activity is: carried out by student groups consisting of the NHL Stenden and UNTRIM teams, where each group teaches children and teaches the elderly in four balai banjar (RW) in turn. Each team consists of students taking the minor Entrepreneurship and Business Consultant (EBC) programs, Event Management (EM) and Mindfullness Leadership (ML). Students of the EBC and EM minor programs teach school children in balai banjar (RW), students of the ML minor program teach laughter yoga, and elderly gymnastics. All Stenden NHL students and UNTRIM students also had the opportunity to enjoy the tourism village program that was packaged with UNTRIM students. The results of this project show that; the usefulness of the interaction between foreign students and the local community in the context of learning for school children has a positive impact on developing their international outlook. Cultural learning, social interaction with foreigners, has a positive impact on improving the quality of life for the ELDERLY. Simultaneously teaching and sharing activities with the ELDERLY in the village by NHL Stenden students and UNTRIM students contributed reciprocally to both parties.
