Abstract

Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) is a global action plan agreed upon by world leaders, including Indonesia, to end poverty, reduce poverty and protect the environment. SDGs contain 17 goals and 169 targets which are expected to be achieved by 2030. Universities are expected to help the government in strengthening SDGs programs. One of the 9th SDGs programs is "Building resilient infrastructure, increasing inclusive and sustainable industry, and encouraging innovation. In line with the 9th SDGs program, the people of North Sumatra Province who are highly dependent on agricultural livelihoods need innovation and empowerment programs to increase their efficiency and productivity. The Karo Regency area in North Sumatra Province has been developed into production centers for agricultural products such as vegetables and fruit. Berastagi is a fruit and vegetable producing center as well as a tourist area. As a producer and tourism center, the government has designated the Berastagi fruit market as an orderly market. However, it was found that the weighing measuring instruments owned by traders at the Berastagi fruit market did not have a valid stamp and had expired stamps, which resulted in a decrease in regional levy income for Karo Regency. Apart from that, the transfer of the D3 Metrology and Instrumentation study program in 2022 from FMIPA to USU's Faculty of Vocational Studies is not yet well known to the public, resulting in a decline in student interest in entering the D3 Metrology and Instrumentation study program, which has been proven to be far below the quota accepted in the 2023 new student admission achievement pathway. For this reason, through the community service program in 2023, it is necessary to introduce the D3 Metrology and Instrumentation study program through socialization activities on Law Number 2 of 1981 concerning Re-Terra and Re-Terra and Law Number 8 of 1999 concerning Consumer Protection, education on Re-Terra of Measuring Instruments.

Abstract

Sustainable economic growth is a challenge for Indonesia today. The Universitas Sumatera Utara in Strengthening SDGs promotes decent and inclusive employment opportunities, and enhances sustainable economic growth in Indonesia by working with companies, civil society organisations, and governments to create an environment that supports inclusive economic development and provides fair access to employment opportunities. The community service team through the community service institution of the Universitas Sumatera Utara plays an active role in the success of the SDGs by carrying out community service with MSME partner Kilang Tenun Sinaga. The results of the team's observations that Kilang Tenun Sinaga MSMEs have such important problems, namely the difficulty of finding employees with skilled weaving skills that cause a lack of weaving production processes that can be fulfilled when ordered, lack of employees who can increase production results, unable to expand by opening new promotional outlets while promoting production results. The solution presented by the team is to carry out community empowerment through improving weaving skills so that they will get the expected employees. This community service team with partners also through this service aims to continue weaving skills, especially ulos motifs, to become part of the world heritage in the future. From this solution, employees also get decent work and improve the community's economy in accordance with SDGs goal no. 8, namely decent work and economic growth.
