<![CDATA[ABSTRACT This community service program aimed to enhance students’ capacity to design shelters for stray cats through a biomimicry approach while also strengthening their public communication competence through an English for Public Awareness Campaign. The activity was conducted at Universitas Negeri Makassar and utilized the digital design technology Autodesk Fusion 360 to produce shelter models that were adaptive to urban environments and the natural behavioral needs of cats. The implementation methods included biomimetic design training, three-dimensional modeling practice, and the development of public awareness campaigns using academic English aligned with the terminology of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The results showed an improvement in students’ understanding of nature-based design principles, their ability to use design software, and their skills in constructing factual and diplomatic English narratives for public awareness campaigns. The program also encouraged the integration of design innovation, international language literacy, and community participation in efforts to improve urban animal welfare and public environmental awareness.
