Then, overall for target group get positive score which consist of motives +0.62, cognitions +0.45, and power +0.33. The result of type interaction between two actors point out number 10 which is about obstructive. Also, there are three contextual issues which are influence characteristics of actors. First, specific context is about any other interests or other priority besides energy efficiency. Structural context is about the accessibility of resources and authority of the implementer. Also, the wider context is about moral responsibility of the actors in protecting their environment. The strategic planning to pursue energy efficiency in campus FISIP Dago consist of motivation improvement by campaign in energy saving and giving rewards.
