Abstract

The purpose of this community service activity is to design an inclusive communal space which accommodates the needs of people with disabilities in Unhas Housing in Antang. Currently, the communal space that’s available in the area has not satisfied the universal principle of accessibilities, thus limiting the social participation for people with disabilities in the community life. This community service is conducted through a participative approach which involves the residents in the area, people with disabilities, and other stakeholders. This activity mainly involves field survey to identify physical barrier, focused group discussion to identify the users’ needs, and the development of a design prototype for the communal space which fits the universal accessibility design principles. This activity is analyzed through comparison between the knowledge and the approval of an inclusive communal space, and through the comparison between knowledge and the approval of the respondents in regards to the needs of the communal space in an inclusive housing environment. The result of this activity is a design recommendation for a communal space that could be accessed by every group, which includes several facility such as a ramp, ergonomic seating area, and an audiovisual information system. Aside from giving a design solution, this activity also promotes collective awareness towards the importance of an inclusive environment. This activity aims to be a model for the development of an inclusive housing environment, and to promote collaboration between academics and the community in realizing an environment that’s just and sustainable for all members of the community.

Abstract

This community service activity aims to inventory aspects of the Mangilu geological reserve through field observations, as well as increase public awareness of the concept of geological reserves, the importance of geoheritage, and sustainable participatory preservation strategies, as well as foster a sense of pride and ownership in the community towards their local geological wealth. The implementation method includes field observations to obtain initial data on the geological reserve to be socialized. The socialization process uses an interactive presentation method that explains the area's geological potential, its benefits to the community, and sustainable conservation measures. The inventory results show that the Mangilu area has extraordinary geological diversity with unique characteristics with very diverse rock components from various origins and formation periods, including outcrops of autoclastic breccia and altered kaolin from the Mallawa Sandstone, several outcrops of autoclastic breccia containing serpentinite blocks, broken and deformed chert, marble blocks and pillow lava, Tonasa limestone with boudin (pinch and swell) structure and basalt dikes intruding hyaloclastic rocks. This is clear evidence of the intensive tectonic processes of the Bantimala Complex. This geological diversity makes Mangilu have high potential to be developed as a geological reserve and geoheritage that is valuable as a source of knowledge for further geological research, a valuable learning object, and an educational tool. The socialization activity in the form of an interactive presentation delivered successfully increased public understanding and awareness of the concept of geological reserves, where before the socialization was carried out, 15% showed very understanding, 19% understood, 35% did not understand, and 31% did not understand. After the socialization activity, there was an increase in understanding to very understanding 49%, understanding 28%, not understanding 18% and not understanding 5%.

Abstract

Mattiro Baji Village, located on Satangnga Island in Takalar Regency, is a coastal area facing limited access to electricity due to its geographical isolation from the mainland. The village’s power supply primarily relies on Solar Power Plants (SPP) and diesel generators. This community service program aimed to provide education and conduct operational inspections of functional SPP systems. The implementation method involved direct observation of three power systems: a main SPP with a capacity of 30 kWh, a smaller SPP with a capacity of 3 kWh, and a grid-connected SPP system supplying approximately 1 kWh. The inspection results showed that the main SPP experienced an inverter failure, while the small SPP remained operational, albeit with reduced efficiency due to accumulated dust and decreased battery capacity. In contrast, the grid-connected SPP system operated optimally. The other activity carried out was an educational session on the SPP, which was attended by eight representatives as participants based on the village head’s recommendation. This educational initiative successfully increased community awareness regarding the importance of regular maintenance, solar panel cleanliness, and efficient electrical load management. The average improvement, as measured through pre-test and post-test evaluations, reached 61%, indicating the effectiveness of the educational program. Through this approach, the sustainability of renewable energy systems in island communities can be strengthened, supporting Indonesia’s clean energy transition and equitable electricity access in remote, frontier, and outermost (3T) regions.

Abstract

This community service program aimed to optimize the utilization of coconut shell waste into biobriquettes as an environmentally friendly alternative energy source in Korong Pilubang, Nagari Katapiang. The program partners included farmer groups, PKK women's groups, youth organizations (Karang Taruna), and local MSMEs. This initiative addressed the issue of abundant coconut shell waste generated from coconut farming activities, which had not been optimally utilized and often contributed to environmental pollution. Through a participatory approach, the program provided comprehensive training and direct technical assistance covering carbonization, molding, and packaging processes of biobriquettes. The implementation produced biobriquettes with specifications of 3 cm in diameter, 6 cm in height, and a burning duration of 2–3 hours per unit. Quantitative evaluation using pre-test and post-test methods revealed significant improvements in participants' understanding of biobriquette concepts (from 45% to 85%), carbonization techniques (from 35% to 80%), economic benefits (from 50% to 90%), and practical skills (from 30% to 75%). The program has also generated measurable economic impact, including fuel cost savings of up to 40% for small businesses and 30% for households. These outcomes have been sustained through the establishment of an independent production group and increased community awareness of renewable energy and sustainable waste management, supported by close collaboration with the local village government.

Abstract

The revitalization program of Senior High Schools (SMA) is a government initiative aimed at improving the quality of educational facilities and infrastructure to support a safe, comfortable, and sustainable learning environment. In its implementation, schools are not only beneficiaries but are also assigned responsibility by the Ministry of Primary and Secondary Education as the main executors of the revitalization activities, including workforce provision, supervision, and technical planning. This condition requires adequate technical capacity at the school level, while limited understanding of technical guidelines (juknis) may lead to inconsistencies in planning and construction implementation. This community service program aims to provide technical facilitation to one of the high schools implementing the revitalization program, namely SMAN 10 Gowa, in order to improve compliance with the applicable technical guidelines. The facilitation was carried out through a technical assistance approach without taking over the school’s role as the project implementer. The methods included reviewing technical guidelines and planning documents, conducting field inspections of construction works and facility completeness, and formulating as well as delivering technical recommendations discussed with the school implementation team. The evaluation was also carried out quantitatively by measuring the level of technical understanding before and after the assistance. The results indicate a significant improvement in the school’s technical understanding, as reflected by an increase from 50% in the pre-test to 90% in the post-test. In addition, the technical facilitation contributed to enhancing the school's understanding of revitalization technical requirements and encouraged adjustments in planning and construction practices to comply with the technical guidelines. This activity underscores the strategic role of universities in strengthening the technical capacity of schools as implementers of the revitalization program, as well as in supporting the improvement of quality and accountability in educational infrastructure development.

Abstract

Integrating environmental conservation, community empowerment, and local economic growth into ecotourism land allocation is essential for sustainable development. The objective of this community service activity is to implement the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) approach to determine the level of ecotourism land suitability in Baranti District, Sidenreng Rappang Regency, South Sulawesi, thereby enhancing the community’s capacity to understand and apply data‑driven decision‑making. A participatory approach was applied by involving the community in determining the criteria and location priorities. The respondents for the pre‑test and post‑test were members of farmer groups, totaling 25 individuals. The evaluation conducted through the pre‑test and post‑test shows that 22.40% of participants experienced an improvement in understanding after attending the socialization and the application of automation‑based methods in decision‑making. The AHP analysis results indicate that the slope gradient criterion has the highest weight at 0.35, followed by road access at 0.25 in determining land suitability. Sipodeceng Village, located in Baranti District, was identified as the priority location with a high suitability level based on geographic criteria. Areas with a slope gradient of 3–15% are the most suitable for ecotourism development. The determination of ecotourism land priorities serves as a basis for decision‑making in the development of agricultural ecotourism areas, thereby supporting the enhancement of economic independence among communities in Baranti District.
