Abstract

The people of Simeulue Island, Aceh, have a long-standing tradition of coconut gardening. Before the 2004 earthquake and tsunami, coconut production in this area was quite high. However, in recent years, the decline in coconut production has threatened the supply of raw materials for the local processing industry. As a result, hundreds of tons of raw materials must be imported from Nias Island to meet the needs of the industry. One of the main causes of this decline is suboptimal harvesting practices. This study revealed that most coconut varieties cultivated in Simeulue are Kelapa Dalam, which has a productive age of 10 and 30 years. Based on visitation patterns, there are two types of coconut gardens: those that are regularly visited and those that are rarely visited. The rarely visited gardens are only visited during harvest time, about once every three months. The vegetation in these gardens tends to be denser, but their productivity is difficult to control. Most of the productive coconuts currently come from low-quality seeds, namely small coconuts that are not harvested because they are considered uneconomical. These seeds are often less than 1 kg; some are as big as 250 ml mineral water bottles. Efforts are needed to ensure the sustainability of the coconut industry in Simeulue; efforts are needed to provide superior seeds that can improve the quality and quantity of future harvests.

Abstract

North Aceh Regency is the region with the highest number of cases of child violence in Aceh Province. Of course, there are many factors behind it, one of which is the existence of a family that has not functioned optimally. This study examines how efforts to revitalize the functioning of family institutions to prevent violence against children. The research, which took place in North Aceh Regency, used a qualitative approach with observational data collection techniques, in-depth interviews, and document studies. Key informants in the study were stakeholders in the North Aceh Social Service, traditional leaders, religious leaders, and the general public. The data was analyzed using an interactive analysis model, namely: data reduction, data display, and conclusion affirmation. The results of the study found that the forms and types of violence against children that occurred in families in North Aceh were: a) physical violence; b) neglect; c) psychic violence; and 4) sexual violence. It's caused by factors of parental background and education level, family economic factors, and parental divorce. One form of social intervention that can be carried out to minimize cases of violence in the family is to restore the function of the family as the first madrasa and a shield of protection for the child. Therefore, the socialization of family functions should be improved with the main targets being families of young couples and families with a low level of education.

Abstract

Through an ecological-social-economic tourism paradigm, this article explores the development of the Gudang Garam Beach tourist destination in Serdang Bedagai Regency by the Tourism Awareness Group (Pokdarwis).  This study analyzes the social aspects of empowerment, management strategies for optimization, and the aspects that enhance Pokdarwis evolution using a descriptive qualitative approach in combination with trend data on tourist visits.  The findings indicate that Pokdarwis not only played a role in the development of infrastructure and the improvement of local economic conditions, but also in the strengthening of social capital, multigenerational collaboration, and community resilience during the COVID-19 crisis.  The novel aspect of this study is the integration of three sustainability pillars—economic, social, and ecological—into a single operational paradigm for community-based tourism.  By illustrating how grassroots leadership and social participation motivate adaptive capacity in post-crisis contexts, this strategy expands theoretical discussions regarding sustainable tourism.  Therefore, the ecological-social-economic tourism model offers both practical guidelines and academic insight to develop community-based tourism management in Indonesia and comparable environments.

Abstract

Aplikasi Kecerdasan Buatan (AI) menawarkan peluang besar bagi pustakawan untuk meningkatkan layanan perpustakaan dan mengelola informasi secara lebih efisien. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menyelidiki urgensi penguasaan aplikasi AI oleh pustakawan di Universitas Sumatera Utara (USU). Metode yang digunakan adalah wawancara semi-struktur dengan pustakawan serta studi literatur. Wawancara bertujuan untuk menggali pengetahuan, keterampilan, dan pengalaman pustakawan terkait aplikasi AI, sementara studi literatur digunakan untuk mencari konsep pembanding mengenai pentingnya penguasaan AI dalam dunia perpustakaan. Temuan awal menunjukkan adanya variasi tingkat pemahaman dan keterlibatan pustakawan terhadap aplikasi AI. Beberapa pustakawan memiliki pengetahuan yang baik, sementara yang lain masih terbatas. Temuan ini menyoroti pentingnya investasi dalam pendidikan dan pelatihan AI bagi pustakawan untuk menutup kesenjangan pengetahuan dan meningkatkan kompetensi mereka. Peningkatan kecakapan AI oleh pustakawan di USU diharapkan dapat meningkatkan kualitas layanan, menyederhanakan operasional, dan memenuhi kebutuhan pengguna perpustakaan. Oleh karena itu, pelatihan dan dukungan komprehensif mengenai AI bagi pustakawan sangat diperlukan untuk memastikan efektivitas perpustakaan di era digital

Abstract

The Ujong Blang Beach tourism area in Lhokseumawe City is highly vulnerable to various coastal hazards, including coastal erosion, tidal flooding, storm surges, extreme weather, and potential tsunamis. However, the preparedness capacity of the local community, tourism stakeholders, and visitors has not adequately kept pace with these risks. The low level of disaster literacy, the absence of standard operating procedures (SOPs) for emergency response, limited evacuation routes, inadequate disaster mitigation information, and the suboptimal implementation of a community-based Early Warning System (EWS) constitute the primary challenges that require integrated intervention. This community service program aims to enhance the disaster preparedness capacity of the tourism community through the Community-Based Disaster Risk Reduction (CBDRR) approach, which positions local communities as the primary actors in disaster risk reduction efforts. The program is implemented through disaster education, mitigation training, evacuation drills, the development of evacuation routes, the establishment of community disaster response volunteers, and the strengthening of a simple community-based early warning system tailored to local social conditions. A participatory approach is adopted by involving village authorities, Tourism Awareness Groups (Pokdarwis), micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs), community leaders, and other relevant stakeholders to establish sustainable coordination and preparedness mechanisms. The expected outcomes include improved knowledge, skills, and awareness of disaster preparedness among community members, the availability of disaster mitigation facilities and evacuation routes, the establishment of an effective risk communication mechanism, and increased visitor awareness of safety measures. The implementation of CBDRR and a community-based EWS is expected to transform Ujong Blang into a safe, resilient, adaptive, and sustainable coastal tourism destination while strengthening collaboration among higher education institutions, government agencies, and local communities in supporting disaster risk reduction.
