Abstract

This study aimed to enhance public awareness regarding conflict identification and encourage the adoption of suitable resolution strategies. The community service initiative employed a training approach, engaging a group of 52 women on Laiya Island, Pangkep Regency, South Sulawesi, Indonesia. Furthermore, this activity was a collaboration between CPCD (Center for Peace, Conflict, and Democracy) Hasanuddin University and the Pangkep District Fisheries Service. The results showed that an effective measure for conflict prevention entailed the empowerment of women. Therefore, there had been a notable improvement in community understanding of appropriate conflict resolution techniques. This activity introduced a novel approach where the empowerment of women through the utilization of marine products and the establishment of micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) as well as home industries played a vital role in conflict resolution strategies. In conclusion, the conflicts experienced on Laiya Island were minimal, and the community successfully resolved disputes through meaningful discussions.

Abstract

This community service activity aims to provide knowledge about the benefits of the digitalization program and the importance of empowering women to achieve gender equality and to improve people's skills in using digital systems by utilizing marine products by making and processing fish balls and learning how to package them.  Community service activities were carried out on Laiya Island, Pangkep Regency, South Sulawesi Province, Indonesia from March to June 2023. This activity is divided into two stages. The first stage is digital marketing outreach and women's empowerment. At this stage, the proposing team provided material about the importance of empowering women, especially in processing marine products. We also explained the importance of empowering MSMEs by involving women on the island. In the second stage, we conducted training on the use of marine products, especially fish, as the main livelihood on this island. We teach participants how to process and package fish balls and market them online. One of the market attractions lies in digital packaging and marketing. Participants who take part in this activity generally understand how to make packaging in a simple way. At this level, participants are able to explain the importance of women's empowerment programs in supporting the improvement of community or family welfare. The results of the service increase participants' understanding and skills in online social media at the basic stage.
