Abstract

This community service program, designed as English training based on interactive learning and character education, aims to enhance both language competence and character development of high school students in preparing for global challenges. The program was conducted over two months through eight online sessions and supported by eight months of intensive mentoring via WhatsApp groups. The training materials integrated Indonesian cultural elements and global issues while instilling the CERMAT character values (Intelligent, Energetic, Brave, Diligent, Millennial, Noble Morals, and Responsible). Evaluation results indicate that the program successfully met participants’ expectations, particularly through interactive learning methods and continuous mentoring that addressed students’ needs. Significant improvements were observed in English skills, including listening, speaking, grammar, writing, and vocabulary, as well as in character aspects such as self-confidence, responsibility, cooperation, and courtesy. With its holistic approach, the program not only strengthened students’ linguistic competence but also fostered positive character development, thereby better preparing them to face challenges at national and global levels. Recommendations for future implementation include greater flexibility in duration and diversification of materials to optimize effectiveness and sustain students’ learning motivation.

Abstract

Kemiskinan merupakan kondisi yang hingga saat ini masih menjadi permasalahan di Indonesia. Hal ini dapat dilihat dari masih tingginya jumlah penduduk miskin di Indonesia pada tahun 2021 mencapai 26,5 juta jiwa. Kemiskinan ini tidak terjadi begitu saja, salah satunya karena minimnya penghasilan rumah tangga sehingga membuat mereka tak mampu memenuhi kebutuhan sehari-hari. Pemberantasan kemiskinan di Indonesia memerlukan kerjasama berbagai pihak, baik pemerintah maupun swasta. Oleh sebab itu, tim pengabdian masyarakat bersama LAZ Dompet Dhuafa menjalankan program berbasis kearifan lokal untuk meningkatkan ekonomi masyarakat pesisir melalui pemberdayaan perempuan. Program ini menyasar 50 perempuan keluarga nelayan kerang hijau di wilayah pesisir pantai Serang, Provinsi Banten, Indonesia. Wilayah ini merupakan wilayah penghasil kerang hijau tetapi belum terbudidayakan dengan baik. Praktek nelayan masih dilakukan secara manual sehingga hasil yang didapatkan tidak optimal. Hal ini berdampak pada tingkat penghasilan masyarakat yang masih rendah. Program pengabdian dalam bentuk pemberdayaan masyarakat ini bertujuan untuk meningkatkan kesejahteraan masyarakat melalui pemberdayaan perempuan keluarga nelayan. Program dijalankan selama satu tahun dengan pendampingan penuh. Program ini melingkupi pemberian modal usaha, pelatihan skil, dan pendampingan usaha. Evaluasi dampak program ini dihitung dengan metode SLIA (Sustainable Livelihood Impact Assessmen. Hasil program pengabdian ini menunjukkan bahwa program memberikan dampak yang positif terhadap kesejehteraan masyarakat. Hal ini dapat dilihat baik dari aspek peningkatan pendapatan, aspek fisik, aspek alam, aspek sumber daya manusia, maupun aspek sosial.
