Abstract

This article aims to describe the implementation of sustainable tourism promotion through the documentation of natural and cultural tourism in Tuapeijat Village, North Sipora District, Mentawai Islands Regency. The activity was carried out as part of the Padang State University's Community Service Program (KKN), focusing on tourism potential, including Awera Beach, Berkat Beach, Putoutogat Island, mangrove ecotourism with traditional toek cuisine, and the cultural attraction of sago worm consumption. The method used was a descriptive qualitative approach with data collection techniques in the form of field observations, visual documentation, and brief interviews with tourism actors and the local community. The results of the activity showed that tourism documentation was able to increase public awareness of the importance of preserving nature and local culture, while also serving as an effective promotional medium for the development of sustainable tourism. The conclusion of this study is that tourism promotion based on documentation can be a synergistic strategy between environmental conservation, community economic empowerment, and the introduction of Mentawai culture.

Abstract

This article presents a qualitative analysis of the collaborative roles between the community and health workers in stunting prevention efforts within Tuapeijat Village, Mentawai Islands, a region confronting significant geographical challenges and limited healthcare facilities. Through interviews with key informants (parents, Posyandu cadres, midwives, and health center staff), the study found that the community actively participates in Posyandu and nutrition counseling, although effectiveness is constrained by limited knowledge and access to nutritional resources. Meanwhile, health workers function as facilitators and educators by monitoring child growth and providing interventions, but are hindered by constraints in personnel and facilities. Therefore, the success of stunting prevention highly depends on a strong synergy between these two parties, implemented through culturally appropriate approaches, thus emphasizing the need to focus on community empowerment and capacity building of health workers to foster a healthier future generation.

Abstract

Adolescents in island regions still face limited access to information regarding higher education, scholarship opportunities, and the risks of negative behaviors that may close their future opportunities. This condition underlies the implementation of the Cerdas Memilih Masa Depan program by Universitas Negeri Padang students through the Community Service Program (KKN) at SMA Penabur Berkat, Tuapeijat, Sipora Utara, Mentawai. The activity was conducted on July 6, 2025, involving 25 twelfth-grade students. The methods used were interactive lectures, group discussions, a simple interest–talent simulation, and question–answer sessions supported by PowerPoint presentations and concise modules. The results showed an increase in students’ understanding of strategies for choosing majors and universities, knowledge of scholarship opportunities, and awareness of avoiding risky behaviors such as early marriage, drugs, and online gambling. This program demonstrates that participatory-based socialization is effective in increasing the motivation of Mentawai adolescents and has the potential to be developed as a sustainable strategy in preparing a more visionary young generation.

Abstract

Mentawai Night is a regular cultural agenda serving a dual and crucial role in preserving local cultural heritage and increasing social participation among the Mentawai community. By featuring traditional arts and rituals, such as the Sikerei dance or gong music, and actively involving all community segments, the event not only provides a platform for authentic cultural expression but also significantly strengthens social cohesion and bonds. Nevertheless, organizers face significant challenges: a massive surge in visitors is typically observed only on the opening night, followed by a sharp decline in attendance during the subsequent week of the event. Therefore, innovative sustainability strategies—including program diversification or interactive workshops—are essential to maintain the event's appeal and relevance throughout its entire duration. By addressing these challenges, Mentawai Night holds substantial potential to evolve into an inclusive, self-sufficient, and sustainable model for community-based cultural activities for other island territories.
