Abstract

This paper aims to discuss the coping mechanisms of a community in dealing with risks and uncertainties in new situations that have never been part of their local knowledge. The problem is focused on how the subject (farmer) formulates risk and uncertainty, and shows their coping mechanisms to deal with the complexity of the problem. The cultural approach is an important reference for understanding the empirical phenomenon being studied, combined with the concept of dynamic local knowledge and the concept of risk. Data were collected through fieldwork using an emic view approach with observation-participation techniques as well as in-depth interviews and qualitative data analysis processes. This study concludes that farmers have a risk conception which they call “try it out” on 4 sources of risk (air, pest, price, volcanic ash of Mount Sinabung) and develop coping mechanisms through variations in cropping patterns, even the type of 'gambling' as an opportunity for the complexity of the risks that occur. The risk symbols are also classified into 2 types of distribution; individual and communal. The ability to cope with each type proves the innovative capacity of the subjects, which is related to the dynamics of knowledge and the learning process in their community.

Abstract

This paper examines the health culture system of a community with a focus on the knowledge construction process in traditional medicinal practices called massage healers. The villagers still choose traditional practices as the main or alternative treatment in dealing with their illness with various explanations. This explanation is also related to the side effects of chemicals and the relatively high cost of modern medical treatment. The primary methods for collecting data for this study were qualitative, including participant observation, in-depth interviews with key informants, and four months of fieldwork. A holistic analysis is carried out on all field data to unravel the knowledge construction on the research subject. The findings of this study showed that the knowledge construction process within traditional massage healers persists throughout their clinical experience and is related to cosmology, and accumulates over time and from one patient to the next. The method of acquiring knowledge also varies; through stories from other people in the village or pharmacists, experiences in treating patients, dreams, and whispers from ancestors, villagers, relatives, and other healers. Experience and information from all sources of knowledge provide feedback on the enrichment of existing knowledge, techniques, and better healing strategies for patients.

Abstract

Kesehatan mental dan kekerasan berbasis gender menjadi tantangan serius bagi perempuan di komunitas pertanian karena keterbatasan akses terhadap informasi, layanan kesehatan mental, perlindungan hukum, stigma dan budaya patriarki. Situasi itu diperburuk dengan tekanan ekonomi akibat iklim ekstrim. Pengabdian masyarakat ini bertujuan meningkatkan literasi kesehatan mental serta upaya preventif kekerasan terhadap perempuan di Kelompok Tani Wanita Anggrek melalui participatory co-design approach; penyuluhan, diskusi kelompok terfokus, kolaborasi dengan instansi terkait dan akademisi. Program ini berhasil mendorong peningkatan pemahaman terkait kesehatan mental, kekerasan terhadap perempuan, semangat partisipatif menjadi agen perubahan dengan slogan women support women, dan terbangunnya ruang pengetahuan baru terkait regulasi nasional. Melalui sesi berbagi pengalaman dan pemutaran video, kegiatan ini memperkuat ketahanan perempuan menghadapi ragam kerentanannya. Kontribusi pengabdian ini terhadap SDGs 3, 5, dan 10 tercermin dalam penguatan kapasitas perempuan dan rekomendasi pengembangan edukasi berbasis komunitas sebagai strategi berkelanjutan bagi penciptaan lingkungan sosial yang ‘sehat’ dan inklusif bagi perempuan
