Abstract

Sanitation is an important factor in public health. Basic sanitation facilities involve three very important components, namely the provision of clean water, household waste disposal, and the provision of healthy latrines. The main issues in environmental health in Indonesian society generally still focus on decent housing, the provision of clean water, family latrines, waste disposal, and household waste management. The objective of this study is to provide an overview of the availability of basic sanitation as an effort in environmental health in Mafututu Village, Tidore District. This research is observational in nature. The study was conducted in Mafututu Village, Tidore District, in February 2025, with a sample of 178 respondents, using stratified random sampling techniques. The data collection methods included in-depth interviews and observations. The data processing was conducted descriptively. The research results indicate that the main water source used by households for drinking purposes is rainwater, accounting for 47.8%. The physical quality of drinking water is murky, with 42.1%. The most commonly used method for fecal waste disposal is septic tanks, at 91.0%. The waste disposal method used by households for organic waste is open trash bins, at 8.8%. The main method of handling household waste, which is often disposed of improperly, is 25.8%, while 25.3% is disposed of in the river. The method used by household members to prevent the transmission of diseases caused by mosquito bites includes using burning/spraying/electric mosquito repellent and the frequency of draining bathtubs.

Abstract

The Mafututu sub-district, located in a coastal and island area, has different geographical conditions compared to mainland areas, requiring a more participatory waste management approach supported by facilities easily accessible to the community. Initial findings indicate that the area does not yet have Temporary Waste Disposal Sites (TPS), so some residents are still dumping waste into the sea, rivers, and barangka. This situation leads to low public understanding of waste types and sorting, which impacts the sub-optimal waste management efforts in the environment. This service activity aims to assess the effectiveness of outreach in increasing community knowledge regarding waste management. The program will be held at Mafututu Village, Tidore City, on Friday, August 8, 2025. The sample size for the activity was 71 people. The intervention was carried out in several stages: preparation, health education implementation, and knowledge evaluation using pre-test and post-test questionnaires. Data analysis was performed using the paired t-test statistical test. The results of the activity showed that the average knowledge of respondents before the health education was 75.98 (SD 17.27) and increased to 89.02 (SD 11.27) after the intervention. The Paired Samples Test produced a p-value of 0.000, indicating a significant difference between knowledge before and after the health education, with an increase of 13.04 times. These findings indicate that extension activities are effective in improving public understanding of segregated waste management. Therefore, community-based environmental education can be a strategic approach to promote environmentally friendly behavior and support more sustainable waste management at the community level.
