Abstract

Informal workers, such as farmers and artisans, face a high risk of Low Back Pain (LBP) due to non-ergonomic working postures. This community service project aimed to enhance workers' understanding and skills in preventing LBP through ergonomic education and stretching exercises. The methods included field observations, participatory education using visual media, and practical exercise training. The program involved 30 participants of productive age. Evaluation results showed a significant increase in knowledge, with the average score rising from 52.4 (Fair) to 88.7 (Good). Furthermore, 85% of participants successfully demonstrated the stretching movements independently. In conclusion, the combination of ergonomic education and stretching exercise training is effective in increasing preventive awareness of musculoskeletal disorders among informal workers. It is recommended that workers consistently implement five-minute stretching breaks every two hours to maintain productivity and spinal health.

Abstract

Stunting remains a significant public health issue in Indonesia, primarily caused by inadequate maternal nutrition during pregnancy. Nutritional education for pregnant women is a critical strategy to prevent stunting in infants. This community service activity was conducted in Desa Manukan, Sendangsari, Pajangan, Kabupaten Bantul, targeting 40 pregnant women. Methods included educational lectures, interactive discussions, and healthy menu simulations to enhance participants’ knowledge and skills in applying balanced dietary practices. Evaluation was conducted through question-and-answer sessions and observation of participant engagement. Results indicated significant improvements in understanding maternal nutritional needs, recognition of nutritious foods, planning healthy daily menus, and knowledge of stunting prevention. Observational data showed that most participants actively engaged in discussions and were capable of preparing healthy menus following balanced nutrition principles. Practical, simulation-based education proved effective in strengthening participants’ preparedness to maintain maternal and infant health. This activity underscores the importance of community-based nutritional interventions during pregnancy to reduce the risk of stunting.
