Abstract

This community service program aims to enhance understanding of legal protection for teachers in performing their professional duties. The implementation method includes preparation, problem identification, socialization, and monitoring and evaluation (Monev). Through this initiative, teachers gained comprehensive insights into their professional rights, obligations, and legal protection mechanisms as regulated by Law No. 14 of 2005 and Government Regulation No. 74 of 2008. The results showed a significant increase in participants' regulatory understanding, rising from 42% to 89%. The findings reveal that the primary obstacle to teacher protection is not a lack of regulation, but rather weak implementation and insufficient inter-institutional synergy. Consequently, systematic collaboration among local governments, education offices, professional organizations, and legal institutions is required, including the establishment of a Teacher Protection Task Force to ensure an effective and sustainable protection system.

Abstract

Mangrove ecosystem degradation due to land conversion and climate change threatens coastal resilience and community livelihoods in Kuala Simbur Village, Jambi. This community service program aims to enhance ecological awareness and strengthen institutional collaboration in mangrove conservation. Utilizing a participatory approach, the program engaged the village government, Village Consultative Body (BPD), and local community groups through environmental regulation education, participatory problem identification, and conservation action planning. Results indicated a significant increase in public understanding of environmental risks and the ecological functions of mangroves. The program's tangible impacts include the formation of community-based mangrove conservation groups and the strengthening of village regulatory frameworks for sustainable coastal management. Community participation increased in direct actions such as conservation area monitoring and land rehabilitation. This initiative demonstrates that the synergy between community awareness and village institutional support is a decisive factor in the successful preservation of blue carbon ecosystems in coastal regions.
