Abstract

Waste management issues remain a significant environmental challenge, particularly in urban and coastal areas, due to population growth, changes in lifestyle, and limitations in effective waste management systems. These conditions contribute to environmental degradation, increased health risks, and threats to coastal ecosystems caused by the accumulation of domestic waste. Selumit Pantai Subdistrict in Tarakan City, as a densely populated coastal area, faces similar problems, which are characterized by low levels of waste segregation and management practices among the community. In response to this condition, the D-IV Health Promotion Study Program of Politeknik Kaltara conducted a community service program through educational and community empowerment approaches in managing household and coastal waste. This activity aimed to enhance community knowledge, awareness, and active participation in implementing environmentally friendly waste management practices. The results indicated an improvement in community understanding and involvement in maintaining environmental cleanliness, which is expected to support the realization of a clean, healthy, and sustainable coastal environment.

Abstract

Access to safe water and adequate sanitation is a crucial factor in maintaining public health, particularly in coastal areas with high population density such as Selumit Pantai Subdistrict, Tarakan City. Various challenges, including environmental conditions, limited supporting infrastructure, and suboptimal sanitation practices among the community, have the potential to increase the risk of environment-related diseases. In response to these conditions, this Community Service activity was conducted as an educational effort through the provision of information and assistance related to clean water and sanitation. The activity involved resource persons from the Tarakan City Water Supply Company (PDAM) and Health Promotion lecturers, who delivered materials on water quality and utilization, clean and healthy living behaviors, and the prevention of environmental-based diseases. The implementation employed an interactive approach through lectures, discussions, and question-and-answer sessions to ensure the material was easily understood by the community. The objective of this activity was to improve community knowledge, awareness, and attitudes regarding the importance of proper clean water management and sanitation, thereby encouraging the sustainable adoption of healthy behaviors. Through synergy between practitioners and academics, this activity is expected to support improvements in the health status of coastal communities and contribute to health development in Tarakan City
