Abstract

This study, conducted in October–November 2024 in Kulon Progo Regency, Indonesia, explores a model of community engagement in supporting malaria elimination in high-case areas. Although malaria remains prevalent in eastern Indonesia, cases continue to occur in Java, including Kulon Progo. Using mixed-methods sequential exploratory design, this study combined qualitative and quantitative approaches. Data was collected through observations, interviews, focus group discussions (FGDs), and questionnaires, involving 200 participants—comprising 100 village officials and 100 community health cadres and members. Quantitative data were analyzed using univariate analysis and path analysis. Findings revealed that knowledge and attitudes significantly affect community participation in malaria elimination activities, such as mosquito breeding site eradication and clean-up programs. The path coefficient score (13.93) indicates that community engagement has a strong influence on environmental improvement. Moreover, cross-sector collaboration enhances program effectiveness. This engagement model demonstrates significant potential in strengthening sustainable malaria elimination efforts in endemic-prone areas.

Abstract

Waste cooking oil that is disposed of without treatment can cause environmental pollution and endanger human health if continuously ignored. One innovative solution with economic value to address this problem is by producing mosquito-repellent aromatherapy candles. This activity, titled “LAMITA,” was carried out through entrepreneurship training and socialization provided to students and MSMEs (Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises) in Banyumuncar, Banyuraden Village, Gamping, Sleman, Special Region of Yogyakarta. The training introduced techniques for processing unused cooking oil into eco-friendly mosquito-repellent aromatherapy candles, while also developing participants’ entrepreneurial skills. Students and MSME actors were guided step by step, starting from oil purification, mixing natural essential oils, to candle molding and packaging. The purpose of this activity was not only to promote environmental awareness but also to encourage creativity and innovation in producing high-value products from waste materials. The results showed that participants gained increased knowledge and skills in entrepreneurship, as well as awareness of the importance of managing waste responsibly. This activity highlights that entrepreneurship training combined with environmental sustainability can empower communities to generate economic benefits while contributing to health and ecological protection.

Abstract

Pelatihan pengelolaan sampah kepada kader desa bertujuan memberikan pengetahuan, keterampilan, dan motivasi agar mereka menjadi agen perubahan dalam pengelolaan sampah di desa. Materi pelatihan mencakup konsep pengelolaan sampah, teknik pengelolaan, contoh praktik yang berhasil, serta strategi pengelolaan sampah di desa. Di Padukuhan Druwo, hasil tes sebelum dan sesudah demonstrasi menunjukkan peningkatan signifikan pada pengetahuan dan sikap kader. Kepedulian terhadap buang sampah sembarangan naik dari 98% menjadi 100%, kesadaran bahwa pengolahan sampah mandiri mudah dilakukan meningkat dari 89% menjadi 95%, dan kesadaran bahwa pengolahan sampah sendiri lebih baik daripada dibuang langsung ke TPST meningkat dari 73% menjadi 78%. Kegiatan ini mempromosikan pengetahuan yang, jika diterapkan secara luas, berpotensi menciptakan lingkungan yang lebih hijau dan bebas sampah di Dukuh Druwo.

Abstract

The increasing volume of organic waste in Bantul Regency has become a critical environmental and public health issue, particularly due to the limited capacity of the Piyungan Integrated Waste Processing Site (TPST). This condition has led to waste accumulation at the community level, including in Dusun Gatak, posing risks to environmental quality and public health. This community service program aimed to enhance community capacity in managing organic waste through a maggot-based approach using community empowerment strategies. The intervention employed a participatory community empowerment model, consisting of initial engagement, Community Self Survey (CSS), training, and mentoring stages. The target participants included local residents, community cadres, youth organizations, and fish farming groups. Evaluation was conducted using pre-test and post-test assessments as well as participatory observation. The results showed a CSS response rate of 66%, indicating that most households had not yet managed organic waste effectively. The training program significantly improved participants’ knowledge, as reflected by an increase in average scores from 60 to 85. Maggot-based waste processing was selected as the preferred method due to its practicality and economic potential as an alternative fish feed. Initial implementation demonstrated early adoption of maggot cultivation at the household level. This program contributed to improving community knowledge, skills, and early behavioral changes in organic waste management. Furthermore, the intervention supports environmental sanitation improvement and local economic strengthening. Continuous monitoring and program expansion are recommended to ensure sustainability and scalability in similar contexts.

Abstract

Household organic waste remains an environmental health issue in Ngoto, Bantul, characterized by low levels of waste segregation and processing practices. This community service aimed to improve community knowledge and skills in managing organic waste through composting using a community empowerment approach. A participatory approach was implemented through four stages (L1–L4): problem identification, Community Self Survey (CSS), workshop-based cadre training, and community dissemination. The CSS involved ?50 households to identify priority problems. Training was conducted with 10 community cadres using pretest–posttest and skills observation. The CSS revealed that most households had not practiced proper waste segregation and organic waste processing. Training results showed an increase in knowledge, indicated by higher posttest scores compared to pretest scores. Participants also demonstrated the ability to perform composting independently. The dissemination stage indicated knowledge transfer to the broader community and the emergence of initial behavioral changes in organic waste management. A cadre-based community empowerment approach is effective in improving knowledge and skills in organic waste management and has the potential to promote sustainable behavioral change at the community level.
