Daun Efek is a Small Medium Enterprises in Sidoarjo which is engaged in the production of eco-print batik cloth. In making eco-print batik, UKM Daun Efek still uses conventional methods, thus causing the limited amount of production produced. Other constraints faced are the lack of attractive product packaging and lack of widespread marketing, so that turnover is difficult to increase due to lack of consumer reach. This activity uses an implementation method through a participatory approach, including such as FGDs, training and mentoring as well as discussion activities to exchange experiences between the proposing team and partners. From the implementation method that implemented, a grant machine was produced in the form of an eco-print batik steamer machine, which is able to increase the amount of production from 6 sheets of batik cloth per day to 18 pieces of batik cloth per day. In addition to production management, there was also improved the quality of product packaging from simple and unattractive to a packaging that has good, creative, and imprinted elements in the eyes of consumers through green box-shaped packaging with the partner logo. The reach of consumers has become wider with the marketing through social media.

Presto food is one of the favorite foods of Indonesians. Some of the favorite types of presto food are grilled chicken, presto duck, fish pepes, and presto milkfish. Sidoarjo Regency is one of the regions in East Java that has an area of 15,530 hectares of ponds that produce abundant milkfish of approximately 9,866,300 tons. This is a factor in the emergence of MSMEs engaged in the culinary sector, one of which is UKM Presto Sidoarjo. Limited production equipment causes the production process to be inefficient in terms of time and fuel. Marketing that has not been widespread and product packaging that is less attractive is a factor in the product being less known to the public. The implementation method is carried out through a participatory approach, training and mentoring, as well as discussion activities between the proposing team and partners. The result of this activity is the creation of an automatic presto machine that is able to increase production capacity from 5 kg per process to 10 kg per process and the formation of partners who are independent in using the machine and increasing sales turnover through marketing on social media and product packaging that has good, creative elements, imprints on consumers and labels.

Sustainable societies rely on inclusive decision-making processes, where local-level people’s participation plays a critical role in shaping architecture and urban planning. This study explores how community engagement influences sustainable development at neighborhood and societal levels, particularly in India. Given the complexities of urbanization, cultural behavior, and governance, this research examines how participatory action can enhance sustainability efforts. Through a literature review and expert-level surveys, the study evaluates the impact of people’s behavior, decision-making, and participatory frameworks on architectural design and sustainable neighborhood planning. The findings indicate that participatory models, such as Participatory Action Research (PAR) and Sustainable Development Indicators (SDIs), can effectively integrate public engagement into sustainable assessment tools. Key sustainability aspects—including education, health, water conservation, waste management, and social cohesion—benefit from people’s participation. The research suggests that tools like GRIHA, LEED-ND, and IGBC for Green Residential Societies should incorporate participatory frameworks to enhance sustainability measurement and implementation. This study contributes to rethinking architecture and planning by linking local decision-making with sustainable urban development.

This study set out to investigate the variables that influence households' participation in the production of woodfuel in the dryland regions of Ethiopia's Oromia and Afar regions. Using snowball sampling, 231 households in total were sampled. Out of the 231 sample houses, 155 of them produced wood fuel, and the remaining 76 did not. Focus groups and surveys of households were used to gather data. A binary probit regression model and descriptive statistics were used to analyze the data. The findings showed that households producing wood fuel do so because it is their primary source of income during times of household food scarcity, lack of other work options, and occurrence of various shocks including drought and other diseases affecting crops and livestock. The majority of the labor used in the household to produce woodfuel came from family members. Results from the binary probit model demonstrated that access to extensions and education, both of which were shown to be statistically significant, have a negative impact on household participation in the production of woodfuel. Conversely, the ownership of animals, income, the frequency of droughts, and livestock diseases all had a beneficial impact on household participation in the production of woodfuel. Because there are many different methods of producing wood fuel, policymakers must consider the best approaches to promoting the sustainable use of dryland forest management as well as socioeconomic intervention alternatives that support alternative lifestyles.

One of the obstacles to construction work in Papua is the delay in implementation time and one of the causes is due to the inadequate condition of the access road to the work site, limited material transport fleet and roadblocks by indigenous peoples at the project site. This study was conducted to further examine the factors causing delays in the completion of road works in Southwest Papua Province, especially in Sorong district. The problem limitations used in this study only focus on factors that affect the Timeliness of Work Implementation as for these factors include: Materials, Natural Constraints and Mobilisation. This research uses Non Probability Sampling technique, which is a sampling technique that provides equal opportunities for each element of the population to become a sample obtained through distributing questionnaires online via google form. The process for processing data from respondent survey results uses SmartPLS software, which is software used for Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) analysis. Based on the results of the Convergent Validity Test, Discriminant Validity Test, Construct Reability Reliability Test and Direct Effect and Indirect Effect Hypothesis Test, the results show that materials have the strongest influence on mobilisation, which ultimately increases the timeliness of work implementation.

Floods are one of the natural disasters that often threaten human lives and assets in urban areas. Factors such as climate change, rapid urbanization, and land changes can increase the risk of flooding. Pesawahan Village, located in the Porong District, Sidoarjo Regency, is one of the areas that frequently experiences flooding issues. Floods in this village can endanger the lives of the community, agricultural land, and essential infrastructure. To reduce the risk of flooding and protect valuable resources, in-depth research is needed on the capacity of the river passing through Pesawahan Village and the requirements for a pump system for flood prevention. Pesawahan Village is situated in low-lying terrain and is close to a significant river or water channel. This topographical and geographical condition makes the village vulnerable to flooding, especially during intense rainy seasons. The area often experiences high rainfall during the rainy season, leading to river overflow and subsequent flooding. Population growth and infrastructure development in Pesawahan Village can alter the water flow patterns and reduce the river's capacity, exacerbating the risk of flooding. A pump system is one effective solution to mitigate the risk of flooding in urban and rural areas. However, to design and operate an efficient pump system, a good understanding of the river's capacity and water flow characteristics in the area is essential.
