Abstract

This community service aims to integrate the values of customary law into modern legal outreach within local communities. The primary objective of this activity is to enhance the understanding of customary communities regarding national law and to demonstrate the relevance of customary law within the national legal framework. The legal outreach was conducted with an approach sensitive to local culture, involving customary leaders, legal counselors, and community members in interactive sessions. The results of this service show significant improvement in the community's understanding of national law and their rights within the context of both customary and modern law. Before the outreach, the community's understanding of national law was only 45%, but after the outreach, it increased to 85%. Similarly, understanding of customary law and women's rights showed a significant increase. This program also encouraged active community participation in legal processes, both in resolving customary land disputes and in utilizing national legal mechanisms. However, challenges remain, including ignorance of more complex legal procedures and the need for policies that better support the integration of customary law into the national legal system. Moving forward, further collaboration between customary communities, legal counselors, and the government is expected to strengthen the implementation of fair and inclusive law.

Abstract

Education is a basic right of children that must be protected from being hampered by socio-economic factors. One of the main challenges in the education sector is the high dropout rate, especially among children from underprivileged families. This study aims to explore and optimize the role of schools and communities in protecting children from dropping out of school through community service programs. This program involves collaboration between schools, communities, and the government to reduce factors that cause dropouts, such as economic problems, lack of motivation, and parental involvement. The results of the study showed that providing scholarships, additional learning facilities, and developing learning communities significantly supported the sustainability of children's education. However, challenges such as limited funds and difficulties in reaching remote areas still need to be addressed. Recommendations for program development include increasing accessibility, parental involvement, and partnerships with donor agencies. This program is expected to provide a sustainable positive impact on children's education in areas with high dropout rates.

Abstract

Educating local communities about children's rights is an important step in preventing crimes against children. Although there are various regulations regarding child protection, the low level of public understanding of children's rights remains a challenge. Therefore, this community service activity aims to increase public awareness of children's rights and their role in preventing violence and exploitation of children. Activities include counseling, training, social media campaigns, and mentoring parents, teachers, community leaders, as well as children and adolescents. The results of the activities show an increase in public understanding of children's rights, changes in attitudes towards child protection, and increased community participation in preventing crimes against children. Through this educational approach, the community is expected to be more sensitive to violations of children's rights and play an active role in creating a safe environment that supports children's growth and development. The evaluation showed a high level of satisfaction from participants, as well as a positive impact in strengthening child protection networks in the community.

Abstract

Tindak kekerasan terhadap anak, baik di lingkungan keluarga maupun sekolah, masih menjadi permasalahan serius di Indonesia. Kekerasan dalam bentuk fisik, verbal, psikologis, maupun seksual dapat berdampak jangka panjang terhadap perkembangan anak. Penyuluhan hukum hadir sebagai salah satu strategi preventif untuk meningkatkan kesadaran masyarakat mengenai pentingnya perlindungan anak. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengeksplorasi peran dan efektivitas penyuluhan hukum dalam mencegah tindak kekerasan terhadap anak, serta meningkatkan pemahaman hukum di kalangan orang tua, guru, dan masyarakat. Metode yang digunakan adalah pendekatan kualitatif deskriptif dengan studi literatur dan dokumentasi dari berbagai kegiatan pengabdian masyarakat, laporan lembaga perlindungan anak, serta peraturan perundang-undangan yang relevan. Hasil menunjukkan bahwa penyuluhan hukum yang dilakukan secara intensif dan partisipatif mampu meningkatkan pengetahuan hukum serta membentuk pola pikir yang lebih peduli terhadap hak-hak anak. Partisipasi aktif dari sekolah, keluarga, dan aparat hukum menjadi faktor kunci dalam menciptakan lingkungan yang aman dan ramah anak. Dengan pendekatan kolaboratif, penyuluhan hukum dapat menjadi sarana strategis dalam membangun budaya perlindungan anak yang berkelanjutan. Diperlukan dukungan kebijakan, pelatihan berkelanjutan, serta pemantauan evaluatif agar program penyuluhan hukum dapat berjalan efektif dan merata di berbagai wilayah.
