This study examines the impact of President Donald Trump’s visa policies on shifts in US education diplomacy within the context of global geopolitics, with particular attention to their implications for international students from Muslim-majority countries and Islamic education networks. Restrictive measures during his administration, including limitations on F-1 and J-1 visas and travel bans targeting several Muslim-majority states, led to a notable decline in international student mobility and weakened the United States’ position as a leading global education destination. Using a descriptive qualitative approach and desk study method, this research is supported by individual-level foreign policy theory and education diplomacy theory. The analysis explores how Trump’s perceptions and leadership style shaped policies affecting higher education, including Islamic education-oriented exchanges and collaborations. It also highlights responses from competing countries such as Canada, Australia, and China, which expanded inclusive education policies and strengthened engagement with Islamic and Global South students. The findings show that these visa policies reduced US soft power and created opportunities for other states to lead in global education diplomacy, underscoring the need for more inclusive policy reforms.

Anak usia sekolah dasar di daerah pedesaan sering mengalami keterbatasan pengembangan kreativitas, motorik halus, dan kecerdasan emosional akibat minimnya kegiatan seni yang menyenangkan serta dampak pasca-pandemi. Penelitian pengabdian masyarakat ini bertujuan mengatasi permasalahan tersebut melalui kegiatan mewarnai karakter kesukaan anak di SDN Semanggi, Kecamatan Jepon, Kabupaten Blora, Jawa Tengah. Pemilihan topik didasarkan pada potensi mewarnai sebagai media sederhana namun efektif untuk merangsang perkembangan holistik anak sesuai Kurikulum Merdeka. Kegiatan dilaksanakan pada bulan Juli-Agustus 2025 dengan melibatkan 19 siswa kelas 1 menggunakan pendekatan participatory action research. Modul berisi 20 lembar gambar karakter popular, seperti Tung Tung Sahur, Balerina, Bombardino Crocodilo, cappuccino assassin, dll, yang selanjutnya dikombinasikan dengan storytelling dan refleksi. Data dikumpulkan melalui pretest-posttest, observasi partisipan dan angket kepuasan. Hasil menunjukkan peningkatan signifikan: kreativitas sebesar 55,9%, motorik halus 62,2%, dan kecerdasan emosional 53,5%. Siswa juga menunjukkan peningkatan rasa percaya diri serta kemampuan ekspresi diri. Program ini membuktikan bahwa kegiatan mewarnai berbasis minat anak merupakan strategi yang efektif dan murah untuk mendukung pendidikan holistik di sekolah pedesaan. Keberlanjutan program di sekolah lain di Kabupaten Blora sangat dianjurkan.

Modernity demands a high-quality human being, especially education. While part of society justifies that the best education should have an international label since it is considered to master many things. Therefore is not surprising that many parties have created international labeled schools in Indonesia, such as Islamic boarding schools. They are marked with the term “Islamic International Boarding School” and have a primary vision and mission to deliver the students (santri) able to compete in the international realm. However, understanding literacy to obtain information, especially about getting information sources, studies programs following the students' expertise, and so on, is still limited. Drawing from these problems, we held a community service activity, which focused on an information literacy campaign held in Islamic International School Sabilil Muttawien, Magetan, East Java. This activity aims to find out the description of literacy about the internationalization of higher education. Based on this background, we also survey how the santri seek information about international higher education that santri will be able to use online media as santri (prospective students) can find out detailed information about top international universities.

Background: Used cooking oil (UCO) is a domestic waste that increases in volume along with high consumption of cooking oil in Indonesia and has the potential to harm human health and the environment if not managed properly. Objective: Management of cooking oil waste into aromatherapy candles as an environmental education and a community economic empowerment was designed based on the circular economy. Method: An approach with participatory action research (PAR) paradigm, which used stages of preparation, outreach, training, product processing, then evaluation and mentoring to reach active community participation in the form of creative economic development. Results: The technical knowledge of the participants increased by 26 percentage points, and their confidence increased by 34 percentage points. Activated charcoal was effective for the reduction of rancid odors, and the essential oils improved the functional and economic value of the product. The candles produced showed steady burning behaviours and an acceptable quality of the end product for home production. Conclusion: The processing of WCO into aromatherapy candles would be an effective way to reduce environmental pollution in tandem with enhancing community empowerment and bolstering the emergence of micro-scale enterprises around waste utilizations.

The Special Region of Yogyakarta has unique governmental characteristics, where the reigning Sultan automatically serves as Governor. Problems arose when the Sultan issued a Sabdaraja (Decree) that opened the possibility of leadership succession to women. This customary policy potentially contradicts Special Region Regulation Number 2 of 2015, which normatively requires the Governor to be male. This study aims to examine the implications of the Sultan's dual authority on leadership legitimacy conflicts, identify conflicts between customary law and state law, and formulate possible regulatory harmonization to ensure stable government succession. The research method used is descriptive qualitative with a literature study approach. Data were obtained through a review of laws and regulations, Sabdaraja documents, scientific articles, and news reports related to the dynamics of the Yogyakarta Palace. The results indicate that the basic normative differences between customary law and positive law have the potential to create dual legitimacy conflicts and legal uncertainty regarding the legitimacy of future gubernatorial candidates.

This study examines the phenomenon of the Sunda Empire as a socio-political phenomenon in the post-truth era, highlighting how public trust can be formed in pseudo-historical claims and its impact on the quality of democracy in Indonesia. This study uses a qualitative approach through a literature review modified from a systematic literature review framework to thematic analysis and discourse analysis, with sources consisting of scientific journals, reports, public documents, credible news, and relevant social media content. The synthesis results show that the Sunda Empire builds pseudo-legitimacy through narrative repetition, the use of symbols of authority, a formal communication style, and the exploitation of the social media ecosystem that accelerates virality. The findings also show that public acceptance is influenced by psychological mechanisms such as the illusion of truth effect, the need for identity, and the tendency to trust familiar and emotional information. The implication is that the vulnerability of information and political literacy can weaken public deliberation, increase the space for misinformation, and erode trust in democratic institutions. This study emphasizes strengthening information literacy, media literacy, and political literacy through formal education, community programs, and collaboration with digital platforms as a strategy for democratic resilience in the post-truth era.
