Abstract

Community Service Program (Kuliah Kerja Pengabdian/KKP) is an implementation of the Tri Dharma of Higher Education focusing on community engagement. This program aims to empower students as agents of change through the application of knowledge in the field. This research was conducted in Sukamakmur Village, Tolangohula District, Gorontalo Regency, an area with abundant watermelon agricultural potential. The urgency of this research lies in the need to optimize watermelon processing to increase its economic value, foster awareness of clean and healthy living, and strengthen community cohesion. The KKP activities were carried out for 45 days, encompassing observation, interviews, discussions, and direct training. The demonstration method was employed in the training for processing watermelons into stick and jam products. Additionally, socialization on Clean and Healthy Living Behavior (PHBS), free health check-ups, and arts and sports activities were conducted. The results show that the community successfully understood and practiced watermelon processing into valuable products. There was an increase in community awareness regarding PHBS, and cohesion was fostered through social activities. The implications of these activities include the realization of economic empowerment, improved health, and strengthened social bonds within the community. For the sustainability of the program, continuous mentorship from the local government and universities is recommended to develop the processed watermelon business and enhance community participation in maintaining health and environmental cleanliness.

Abstract

One way to improve community well-being is by fostering understanding and awareness so that citizens comply with applicable norms and regulations. In this community service program (PKM), participants receive knowledge in three main areas: legal aspects, community empowerment, and welfare. This approach uses a systematic delivery method and interactive question-and-answer sessions so that residents can directly participate. This approach is designed to ensure effective and equitable dissemination of knowledge. After the presentation session is complete, the activity moves to a more in-depth and collaborative stage, namely an interactive question-and-answer session. This session is deliberately designed to encourage active participation from the community as participants, creating a lively discussion atmosphere and allowing for the direct exchange of ideas and clarification of questions. The impact of the activity is evident in the increased understanding, both at the individual and group levels, of the Indonesian legal system and the mechanisms for accessing free legal aid. Furthermore, there is a growing awareness of optimizing village potential, both human and natural resources, with better quality, as well as enthusiasm for starting new businesses that are expected to stimulate local economic growth and improve the welfare of the village community as a whole. With a better understanding of the law and economic potential, it is hoped that the Permata Village community will be more proactive in utilizing local resources and building self-reliance. The success of the interaction and active participation indicates that this type of outreach has a positive long-term impact in encouraging improvements in their quality of life and future well-being.
