Abstract

Banana stem waste is one of the agricultural wastes commonly found in rural areas, but it has not been optimally utilized by the community. Most banana leaves are still considered as agricultural waste with no economic value. This Community Service activity aims to empower the SEPATAH KATA Community through handicraft training based on the utilization of banana stem waste in order to improve the community's skills, environmental awareness, and economic independence. The activity was carried out using an educational approach to increase knowledge, a persuasive approach to foster motivation and environmental awareness, and a participatory approach through hands-on practice, with reference to the principles of Participatory Action Research. The results of the activity showed an increase in participants' understanding and skills in processing banana stem waste into handicraft products, particularly bags. Additionally, participants began to realize that banana stem waste has economic value and potential to be developed as a business. This activity contributed to strengthening community capacity and encouraging the sustainable use of local resources to meet needs.

Abstract

The development of tourism villages has become a key strategy in Indonesia’s rural development to support economic growth, cultural preservation, and environmental sustainability in line with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). However, many tourism villages still face challenges in applying sustainable tourism principles, especially those with limited institutional capacity and governance. Pasar Sawahan tourism in Kalongan Village is a community-based destination with strong local wisdom but still faces challenges in infrastructure, environmental management, and governance. Previous studies tend to focus on tourism villages in general, while limited research examines sustainability in traditional community-based tourism markets. This study aims to analyze the implementation of sustainable tourism principles and identify key challenges in Pasar Sawahan. Using a qualitative phenomenological approach, data were collected from eight participants through interviews, observation, and documentation, and analyzed using the Miles and Huberman model. The results show sustainability efforts through community participation, MSME empowerment, cultural preservation, and environmental programs, although challenges remain in institutional strengthening, digital promotion, and youth involvement.

Abstract

This community service program aimed to strengthen women's entrepreneurial capacity by developing banana chip production as a local economic product in Kalongan Village, Semarang Regency. It sought to empower women by improving practical skills in processing local agricultural resources into value-added products supporting household income and community-based entrepreneurship. The program used Participatory Action Research (PAR), involving 30 women selected through purposive sampling from the SEPATAH KATA community. Implementation proceeded through four stages: socialization of program objectives, training in banana chip production techniques, intensive mentoring during production, and evaluation of learning outcomes. A Likert-scale questionnaire assessed production accuracy, cooperation during production, and participants' independence and consistency. Data were analyzed descriptively using percentage analysis. Results showed positive impacts on participants' entrepreneurial skills and behavior: increased independence and consistency in production (45%), improved cooperation during production (30%), and better understanding of production procedures and step accuracy (25%). Participants also grasped the production stages and actively engaged in collaborative learning. These findings indicate that participatory training combined with continuous mentoring effectively enhanced participants' practical skills in transforming local resources into marketable products. The program successfully strengthened women's entrepreneurial capacity and supported the development of banana chip production as a sustainable local enterprise. Future follow-up efforts are recommended to focus on digital marketing assistance, product legality certification, improved packaging design, and sustainability monitoring of women's business groups.

Abstract

The problem addressed in this community service activity was the limited utilization of rambutan commodities in Kalongan Village, which were generally consumed directly or sold in fresh form without further processing, resulting in low economic value. Therefore, this program aimed to strengthen the local creative economy through training on rambutan kombucha production as an innovative fermented beverage product. The activity was conducted in Kalongan Village, East Ungaran District, Semarang Regency, involving 40 members of the Family Welfare Empowerment (PKK) group and local residents. The program applied the Participatory Action Research (PAR) approach through stages of socialization, practical training, mentoring, and evaluation. Evaluation instruments included pre-test and post-test assessments, observation sheets, and participant response questionnaires analyzed descriptively using percentage analysis. The results showed that the average participant score increased from 56.8 to 84.5, indicating a 48.77% improvement in knowledge and understanding of fermentation techniques, sanitation procedures, and creative economy concepts. In addition, 87.5% of participants were able to independently practice the fermentation process, while 82.5% positively accepted the product based on sensory evaluation. The kombucha product achieved an average pH value of 3.2 after 8 days of fermentation, indicating acceptable fermentation quality and safety standards. Furthermore, 77.5% of participants expressed interest in developing rambutan kombucha as a small-scale household business. The program produced several outputs, including a rambutan kombucha prototype, an educational e-module, and a scientific publication draft. Overall, the RAMBUSA program contributed to improving community skills, optimizing local commodity utilization, and supporting sustainable village-based creative economy development.
