<![CDATA[Indonesian Migrant Workers (PMI) play an important role in supporting the community's economic well-being. However, they still face various risks due to limited information, low understanding of official migration procedures, and non-procedural placement practices. Therefore, strengthening safe migration literacy is an important part of building community capacity to protect PMIs from the pre-placement phase. This community service article analyzes the implementation of safe migration education as a strategy to empower village communities to support the protection of Indonesian migrant workers (PMI). The activities were carried out through Brawijaya University's FISIP Bakti Desa (FBD) program in Ngabab Village, Pujon District, Malang Regency, using a community empowerment approach through participatory education and multi-stakeholder collaboration. The activities involved FISIP Brawijaya University, the Ministry for the Protection of Indonesian Migrant Workers (KP2MI), the International Labour Organization (ILO), BP3MI East Java, P4MI Malang, and SBMI Malang Regency. Implementation methods include identifying needs, delivering safe migration materials, holding interactive discussions, and reflecting on activities based on observations of the implementation process. The results show that safe migration education helps strengthen people's understanding of legal migration procedures, the risks of irregular migration, and protection mechanisms for migrant workers. In addition, this activity highlights the importance of collaboration between universities, the government, civil society organizations, and local communities in building a community-based protection system for migrant workers. Safe migration education not only provides information, but also empowers people to build preventive capacity to face the risks of international migration.]]>
