<![CDATA[Communication and public speaking abilities are essential skills for young people in organizational and community life. Youth involved in organizations such as Karang Taruna play a strategic role in various social activities; therefore, the ability to convey ideas, interact, and communicate effectively needs to be cultivated. However, public speaking is often perceived as an innate talent, causing individuals who lack self-confidence to avoid opportunities to speak in public. This community service activity aimed to convey that public speaking is not merely an innate talent but a skill that can be learned and developed through practice. The Public Speaking Workshop was held on July 11, 2026, at the KKN Post 279 in RT 21, Grujugan Hamlet, Kupang Village, Karangdowo District, Klaten Regency. Seventeen Karang Taruna members participated in the event, which featured Muhammad Fauzan Aminuddin, S.Pd., M.Pd., as the speaker. The activity methods included material presentation, interaction, discussion, and public speaking practice. The results demonstrated active participation and enthusiasm among the attendees. Participants gained an understanding of the importance of public speaking and acquired experience in confidently appearing and communicating before others. This workshop serves as an initial step toward boosting the self-confidence and communication skills of the youth, which can be further developed through continuous public speaking practice within Karang Taruna activities.]]>
