Abstract

Household organic waste has become an increasing problem in urban areas due to population growth and changing consumption patterns. Improperly managed organic waste may cause environmental and public health impacts. This community service program aimed to enhance the capacity of Kelompok Wanita Tani (KWT) Puspitasari in managing household organic waste through the cultivation of Black Soldier Fly (BSF) larvae. The method applied a participatory approach consisting of training sessions, demonstrations, hands-on practice, and mentoring, evaluated using a pretest–posttest design. The results indicated a significant improvement in participants’ knowledge, with the mean score increasing from 61.47 to 83.24 and the Wilcoxon test showing p = 0.001. In addition to cognitive improvement, participants demonstrated practical competence and commitment to continue maggot cultivation independently. The findings confirm that BSF cultivation represents an innovative, sustainable, and economically promising solution for community-based organic waste management.

Abstract

Activities with service journal managers as research targets aim to increase managers' knowledge about management and journal articles' substance quality. Manager's knowledge which is the focus of activities, refers to the accreditation assessment of national journals. The main target of community service activities is the manager of the university service journal in Semarang. The method of mentoring activities is carried out online, divided into two forms: for management and article substance. Evaluation of activities was carried out through analysis of the value of pre-test and post-test questions on journal management and article substance and questionnaire analysis of participants' feedback. The average pre-test score is 65, and the post-test is 84, indicating an increase in knowledge on the target activities. From the mentoring in publishing service journals that have been carried out, the journal manager (the target of the activity) has had broader knowledge about the management and substance of the article. The accreditation simulation in the mentoring process has provided an authentic experience for managers to be more prepared to propose accreditation and reaccreditation of service journals.
