Abstract

Traditional fishermen are exposed to various occupational hazards due to the nature of their work, often lacking adequate safety practices and health knowledge. This community service initiative aimed to improve occupational safety and health (OSH) behaviors among traditional fishermen on Kambuno Island, Pulau Sembilan District, Indonesia. Using a one-group pre- and post-test design, the intervention targeted a sample of 60 out of 862 local fishermen. The program involved counseling sessions and the distribution of OSH guidelines specifically tailored for fishing activities, delivered over a two-month period. The intervention assessed various components related to OSH, including the use and completeness of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), knowledge and practice levels, personal health habits, treatment-seeking behavior, and environmental health awareness. Results showed significant improvements in PPE usage, knowledge levels, and OSH practices. For instance, post-intervention data indicated a substantial increase in the use of head, hand, and foot protection, as well as life vests. Furthermore, positive behavioral changes were observed in boat cleaning, self-care, and formal healthcare-seeking behaviors, as fishermen increasingly opted for health centers over traditional treatments. The findings suggest that focused OSH interventions can effectively enhance safety and health behaviors in high-risk fishing communities. This program underscores the importance of continued education and monitoring to sustain these improvements and reduce occupational risks in traditional fishing communities.

Abstract

The use of health services is important to maintain and improve health, prevent the onset or worsening of disease, cure disease, and restore health conditions. This study aims to see the use of polyclinics and satisfaction of students of the Public Health Study Program at the UIN Alauddin Makassar campus. This type of research is quantitative through a cross-sectional approach. The sample size in this study was 229 respondents who were students of the Public Health Study Program. This study was conducted on September 20-25, 2024 with a sample collection method by giving questionnaires to students of the Public Health Study Program. Based on the results of the univariate analysis test obtained from 30 respondents who utilized health facilities 2 times or more than 2 visits, it was found that the majority of respondents were satisfied with each variable, including the tangible variable 21 people (70.0%), reliability 22 people (73.3%), responsiveness 21 people (70.0%), assurance 22 people (73.3%), and empathy 21 people (70.0%). Meanwhile, students who do not utilize the polyclinic at UINAM, the majority of the reasons are that they have never been sick, are more comfortable using health services outside the campus, and prefer to consult with a private doctor or service clinic. Therefore, suggestions and input from UINAM students are obtained, namely that the campus polyclinic needs to improve socialization regarding the service flow and its advantages so that it is better known by students. In addition, it is necessary to improve the quality of service by ensuring that staff are friendlier and more thorough, completing the necessary medical equipment, and improving the comfort of the waiting room and accessibility of health facilities. This is expected to encourage students to trust and choose health services on campus more.

Abstract

Exposure of school-age children to information and environmental influences that may encourage smoking behavior remains a critical concern, particularlybecause their understanding of the dangers of smoking is generally still limited.  This article presents the results of a study aimed at measuring the effect ofcounseling on the dangers of smoking on the knowledge of students at SD Inpres Peo. The research employed a quantitative method using a one-group pre-experimental design, specifically the One-Group Pre-Test and Post- Test model. The study population consisted of all fourth-, fifth-, and sixth-gradestudents at SD Inpres Peo, with a total sample of 62 students. The findings indicate a significant improvement in students’ knowledge after the counseling intervention. During the pre-test, most students demonstrated a low level of knowledge (58%), whereas after the intervention, the majority showed anadequate level of knowledge (67.8%). Results from the Paired Sample T-Test revealed that the mean knowledge score increased from 7.97 to 9.11 following the intervention (p = 0.000). The educational program on the dangers of smoking had a positive impact on increasing students’ knowledge, particularly among fifth-grade students. Support from teachers and the school principal plays an essential role in ensuring the sustainability of the program through thematic learning activities and other school initiatives. The program is expected to foster early behavioral protection and strengthen social norms within the schoolenvironment. Despite these positive outcomes, several challenges remain, including student motivation, program sustainability, and the need for long-term evaluation to ensure behavioral change. The expected outcomes of the program extend beyond improved knowledge scores, encompassing the development of collective awareness and the reinforcement of preventive values.

Abstract

Hypertension is a non-communicable disease whose prevalence continues to increase and remains a major risk factor for cardiovascular diseases such as stroke and coronary heart disease. Limited public knowledge regarding risk factors and preventive measures constitutes a significant barrier to hypertension control efforts. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of an educational intervention in improving community knowledge regarding the utilization of family medicinal plants (Tanaman Obat Keluarga / TOGA) as an alternative approach to hypertension prevention. The intervention employed lectures, pamphlets, and group discussions and involved 31 respondents. The results demonstrated a significant increase in participants’ knowledge regarding hypertension prevention through TOGA utilization following the intervention, with a p-value of 0.000. These findings highlight the important role of health education in strengthening non-communicable disease prevention efforts and improving overall community health status.

Abstract

Early childhood environmental interventions increasingly promote waste-disposal habits, yet limited community-based programs have combined teacher modeling, child-friendly waste infrastructure, and multidimensional behavioral assessment among preschool children. This community engagement program aimed to improve teachers’ waste-disposal behavior and modeling capacity while strengthening preschool children’s positive waste-disposal development in six kindergartens in Makassar and Gowa, South Sulawesi, Indonesia. A Participatory Action Research approach was applied through advocacy, focus group discussions, instrument assessment, enumerator training, baseline measurement, teacher-modeling training, school-based mentoring, post-intervention assessment, reflection, and program revision. Twelve teachers participated in the training, and each school received segregated waste bins for organic, inorganic, and hazardous waste with color-coded labels and visual illustrations. Teachers demonstrated significant improvements in modeling ability, knowledge, attitudes, and practices after the intervention, with all Wilcoxon signed-rank test results showing p < 0.001. Preschool children also showed significant improvements in cognitive, language, motor, social, and affective domains, with posttest scores exceeding pretest scores across all participating schools. The findings indicate that teacher modeling supported by accessible waste-disposal facilities can serve as a practical school-based environmental-health intervention for establishing positive habits during early childhood.

Abstract

Growing interest in plastic waste valorization has highlighted the potential of pyrolysis technology; however, its community-level application remains limited, particularly in rural waste management systems. This community engagement program aimed to strengthen local capacity by implementing pyrolysis technology to convert plastic waste into alternative fuel in Mattiro Ade Village, Pinrang Regency, Indonesia. The program adopted a participatory approach integrating Community-Based Research and Participatory Action Research. Activities included preparation, pyrolysis unit fabrication, operational testing, community outreach, practical training, and transfer of the unit to the local Reduce, Reuse, Recycle Waste Processing Facility. Qualitative evaluation was conducted through participatory observation of community understanding, involvement, and operational readiness. The results showed improved awareness of plastic waste management, active community participation, and adequate readiness among local operators to use the pyrolysis unit. The initiative also demonstrated the feasibility of introducing small-scale pyrolysis within a community-based waste management framework. By linking plastic waste reduction with alternative fuel production, this program offers a practical pathway for strengthening local environmental governance and promoting circular resource use. Further implementation should prioritize technical assistance, routine monitoring, and fuel quality assessment to support operational sustainability and replication in comparable rural communities.
