Abstract

Pakunden Village, Banyumas District, Banyumas Regency, is a creative-based tourism village. This village has several advantages in the fields of art and traditional food. The art groups owned include the Ketoprak Art Group and the Macapat Art Group. The problem faced is the decline in productivity of ketoprak and macapat works due to the decline in literacy and transliteration of Banyumas Javanese script. This program aims to strengthen the literacy skills of Banyumas Javanese script in ketoprak and macapat art groups so that they can play an effective role as agents of local cultural preservation. This program uses a participatory approach method, namely partners are involved in every activity. The stages of activities that will be implemented include socialization, training, implementation of science and technology, mentoring and evaluation, and program sustainability. The indicator of program success is a minimum of 80% of partner members are able to understand and implement Banyumas Javanese script literacy well. The results of the community service activities showed that 85% of partner members were able to read Banyumas Javanese script, 82.5% of partner members were able to write Banyumas Javanese script, and 80% of partner members were able to transliterate Banyumas Javanese script, all exceeding the 80% target. The evaluation results indicate the need for continued program support to assist partners in strengthening Banyumas Javanese script literacy.
