<![CDATA[This community service activity aimed to improve knowledge of TB and Community-Based Total Sanitation (STBM) through health talks and the “TB Hunter STBM” edutainment media, a giant snakes-and-ladders game using participants as game pieces. The activity was conducted on 9-12 September 2025 at five sites, namely an elementary school, an Islamic boarding school, and three subdistricts, reaching approximately 300 participants through health talks. A focused edutainment session with pre-test and post-test evaluation was conducted for 28 participants at three of the five sites. The Wilcoxon Signed Rank test showed a statistically significant increase in knowledge (Z = -2.512; p = 0.012), with 64.3% of participants showing improved scores and a supplementary medium effect size (r ≈ 0.34). The TB Hunter STBM edutainment media proved effective in increasing participants’ knowledge of TB prevention through the STBM approach. This multi-setting approach and the integration of TB-STBM content contribute to the 2030 TB elimination target and the achievement of SDGs 3 and 6.]]>
