Abstract

Indonesia is one of the countries with a large elderly population. The high participation rate of the elderly workforce can cause this.  This kind of challenge, if it does not receive special attention from the government, can cause several new problems, especially in the issue of employment. Therefore, this study was conducted to see how household characteristics influence the decision of older people to work. The data used in this study is sourced from the Indonesian Family Life Survey (IFLS) 5th wave. The methodology used in this paper is a logit econometric model. This logit model is used because the dependent variable from this study is a dummy variable. From the analysis results, evidence was found that household characteristics, such as the type of work, education level, marital status, health status, and residential area status, significantly impact the decision of older people to work. By understanding the characteristics of households that influence older people's decision to work, we can design more effective policies and programs to support older people and ensure their well-being, especially at retirement age, such as pension schemes and social protection programs.

Abstract

Environmental awareness, when nurtured from an early age, can develop into a positive habit that becomes embedded in one’s daily life. This community service partnership program was implemented at PAUD Mutiara Kids in Temanggung as a concrete step to build environmental awareness among young learners. Based on evaluations conducted by the community service team, 92% of the students were already able to distinguish between organic and non-organic waste. However, practical skills in waste utilization were still lacking, particularly in using recycled materials for educational purposes. In addition, environmental values had not yet been integrated into students’ daily routines. To address these issues, the “Zero-Waste Lifestyle” program was introduced as a strategic solution to empower teachers, students, and school staff. The program consisted of three key activities: (1) Introducing and promoting the “Zero-Waste Lifestyle” as a method for developing environmental literacy, (2) Facilitating collaborative workshops to create educational toys from recycled materials through the Pancasila Student Profile Strengthening Project (P5), and (3) Cultivating environmentally responsible behavior through consistent waste sorting habits. The program led to positive behavioral changes in students, particularly in waste management, and helped foster an environmental awareness aligned with the broader goals of sustainable development.

Abstract

Digital payment systems have become one of the main innovations in financial transformation. Over the past few years, these systems have gained significant traction and are now at the forefront of reshaping financial landscapes globally. Currently, digital payment systems have changed global transactions by slowly replacing the transaction patterns of societies that were previously dominated by conventional transactions, offering more efficiency, security, and accessibility. This transformation is closely related to the development of fintech, which has given rise to instruments in the form of electronic money and blockchain technology. These advancements have not only changed the way payments are made but also enabled the inclusion of previously underserved populations in the financial ecosystem. This study uses a bibliometric approach to analyze scientific publications, with the main sources coming from Scopus using the keywords “digital payment systems,” “electronic money,” and “fintech.” By utilizing Biblioshiny in the VOSviewer application, this study aims to examine publication trends, contributions from various countries, institutions involved, and thematic connections between topics. In conclusion, this study contributes to expanding the understanding of the development of digital payment systems, while also presenting a global research map that can be used as a reference for academics, researchers, and policymakers involved in financial innovation.
