Abstract

Glut corn is a local commodity with significant potential for development as a value-added food ingredient. However, limited product innovation, technical skills, and marketing strategies remain major challenges for Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in Mulonegoro Village, Pulubala District, Gorontalo Regency. This community service activity aims to describe the implementation of training in the production of glutinous corn-based processed products and assess its impact on increasing the capacity of MSMEs. The method used was a qualitative participatory approach through preparation, entrepreneurship training, and practice. Participants produced product innovations in the form of glutinous corn sticks, and demonstrated readiness to market their products independently. These findings confirm that local potential-based training can strengthen MSME motivation, increase product competitiveness, and open opportunities for village economic development. In conclusion, utilizing glutinous corn through diversified processed products not only supports the sustainability of MSMEs but can also be a strategy for economic empowerment based on local wisdom. Further research is recommended to explore digital marketing strategies and partnership models that can expand the reach of glutinous corn-based MSME products.

Abstract

Community empowerment is a crucial strategy for improving the quality of life in rural areas through capacity building, infrastructure development, and the enhancement of social awareness. This community service initiative aims to empower the residents of Huntu Selatan Village (Bulango Selatan District, Bone Bolango Regency) through infrastructure development and social education tailored to local needs. Key issues addressed include the maintenance of village facilities and infrastructure, limited access to information regarding higher education, low digital literacy, a lack of understanding concerning the risks of early marriage and legal aspects, limited health knowledge, and the underutilization of herbal plant potential. A participatory approach was employed, involving Universitas Gorontalo students (participating in the KKP program), village officials, schools, community leaders, youth groups, and the general public. The activity stages comprised field observation, needs identification, program planning, implementation, and monitoring and evaluation. Implemented programs included renovating village boundary markers, conducting campus introduction sessions, educating students on the wise use of gadgets, and holding awareness sessions on early marriage, legal matters, and health, as well as establishing a Village Herbal Corner. Results indicate improvements in village boundary markers, increased access to higher education information for 41 students, digital literacy education regarding gadget usage for 32 students, and heightened community understanding through sessions on early marriage, law, and health—each attended by approximately 50 participants. Additionally, a Village Herbal Corner was successfully established to serve as a hub for education and the utilization of herbal plants. Overall, the activities positively impacted community knowledge, awareness, concern, and participation in supporting village development. Sustaining the program requires the continued involvement of the village government and the community through facility maintenance, program management, and periodic monitoring and evaluation.
