Abstract

The closure of Dolly's localization in 2014 had a significant impact on the economy of the surrounding community. Where Dolly is known as the largest prostitution place in Southeast Asia, which is in Putat Jaya, Sawahan District, City of Surabaya. The solution that has been carried out by the Surabaya City Government is to provide training for MSMEs (Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises), in order to create economic growth and opportunities for new creative businesses in local society. To strengthen the MSMEs sector that has been initiated by the Surabaya City Government, our team wants to provide an added value to these MSMEs by carrying out capacity building and a touch of digital platforms to develop the community business sector. So, existing MSME products can be promoted according to the correct and appropriate techniques. This aims to create a creative economy that can be independent from localization activities and can survive the Covid-19 pandemic.

Abstract

Public policy affects citizens’ daily lives, yet policy information is often communicated in technical and formal language that can be difficult for the public to understand. This community service program aimed to strengthen the capacity of the ManifesThink youth community in Surabaya to translate complex policy issues into accessible public education content through podcasts. The program adopted a Participatory Action Research (PAR) approach involving eight active community members as co-designers, policy issue researchers, scriptwriters, hosts, producers, and digital dissemination managers. Conducted from July to December 2025, the activities included an initial assessment and focus group discussion, workshops on policy issue research, audio-script writing and podcast production, collaborative script development, recording and post-production, digital dissemination, and final evaluation. The program produced PolCast (Policy Podcast) ManifesThink as a community-managed policy literacy platform and generated seven educational podcast episodes, exceeding the initial target of five episodes. Evaluation results showed that the participants’ average capacity score increased from 56.5 in the pre-test to 73.0 in the post-test, representing an improvement of 16.5 points or approximately 29.2%. Improvements were observed across four areas: policy issue research, audio-script writing, podcast production techniques, and digital dissemination strategies, with the largest improvement occurring in podcast production skills. These findings indicate that participatory podcast production can strengthen both the substantive and technical capacities of youth communities to communicate public policy issues in a more accessible and engaging manner. The program also demonstrates the potential of community-managed podcasts as a sustainable medium for expanding policy literacy and public access to policy information.
