Abstract

The high rate of HIV/AIDS transmission in Central Sulawesi requires community-based prevention strategies. This community service aims to increase community capacity in Palasa Village through the formation and training of peer educators. The method used combines andragogy-based education (adult learning) and digital campaign training using social media. This activity was attended by 25 youth and health cadres in Palasa Village. Program evaluation was conducted using a pre-test and post-test design as well as monitoring the digital content produced. The results of the service showed a significant increase in partners' knowledge regarding HIV/AIDS transmission and prevention by 42%. In addition, an active group of peer educators was formed and creative digital educational content was produced to reach the wider community. The andragogical approach proved effective in fostering active participation, while digital campaigns expanded the support for education beyond the geographical boundaries of the village. This study is further supported by theoretical perspectives from the Health Belief Model, diffusion of innovation, community empowerment, and behavior change communication as conceptual foundations for the program's success.
