<![CDATA[Despite its significant contributions to health, agriculture, and energy, the public perception of nuclear technology in Indonesia remains cautious and fragmented. Existing communication channels are largely one-way and regulatory, offering limited opportunities for public interaction and collaborative learning. This study investigates how an interactive web-based platform can enhance public engagement and knowledge sharing in nuclear science and technology. To address this challenge, a Nuclear Community Interactive Website (WIKIN) for Indonesia was designed and developed using the Laravel framework, following a structured waterfall methodology. The system integrates role-based access control, modular architecture, and responsive design to support community participation through the sharing of news, discussions, and documentation of service activities. The evaluation was conducted through black-box functional testing of 27 features (all passed) and a system usability scale (SUS) survey involving 51 users, which produced an average score of 74.8 (“Good”), indicating satisfactory usability and acceptance. These results demonstrate that WIKIN provides an effective model for fostering two-way communication, improving transparency, and strengthening public literacy regarding nuclear issues. This study contributes to digital public engagement research by demonstrating how user-centered design principles can be effectively applied to enhance trust, transparency, and community participation in nuclear science communication.]]>
