ABSTRACTThis community service activity was carried out through the Internal Community Partnership Program (PKMI) by a team of lecturers from the Faculty of Economics and Business, Halu Oleo University, with the aim of increasing the knowledge and skills of the community in processing organic waste into eco enzymes as an environmentally friendly solution that also has the potential to provide economic benefits for families. The use of eco enzymes is expected to reduce household expenses, particularly for natural cleaning products, and open up opportunities for the development of marketable products. The implementation methods included material presentations, demonstrations, hands-on practice, and interactive discussion sessions. This activity was attended by 15 participants consisting of housewives and local youth. The results of the activity showed an increase in participants' understanding and skills related to the concept of eco enzyme and its fermentation stages, as demonstrated by the ability of all participants to produce eco enzyme independently and the existence of plans to utilize the product for household needs and small-scale sales opportunities. The enthusiasm of the participants was reflected in their active participation during the practice and discussion. This activity had a positive impact on increasing awareness of household waste management, reducing organic waste, and strengthening household-based economic potential through continued assistance in the second and third months during the fermentation period. Thus, this community service activity successfully achieved its main objective, which was to encourage the implementation of productive, sustainable, and economically valuable organic waste management for the community.Keywords: eco enzyme, community service, organic waste.]]>
