Abstract

In Indonesia, especially North Sumatra, chilli is a horticultural good that the people consume extensively. The availability and demand for red chillies in society are quite erratic; when production rises, the price of red chillies is rather low; when production falls, the price of red chillies will rise because of commodity shortage. Processing fresh chillies into chilli sauce, therefore, is one way to solve this issue. Making chillies into chilli sauce improves shelf life and sales value and makes sense for consumption, tastes great and refreshing, and accentuates the flavour of meals. Training courses on food safety for the Pulau Gambar people in Serbajadi District, Serdang Bedagai Regency, concentrated on chilli sauce processing technology and comprised the community service activities. The training sought to equip the residents with the tools required to create premium chilli sauce, which can be both a source of income and a way to support local cooking customs. Improving their understanding of food safety and processing methods will help the community to guarantee that their goods satisfy health criteria and also attract a larger market. This exercise seeks to guarantee the produced chilli sauce is fit for consumption. The approach was applied sauce. Of the 37 participants in the service activities, 100% said the outcomes were favourable; 69% (15 people) said they intended to try it themselves, and 31% said they were not sure yet.

Abstract

Pasi Village, located in Berampu District, Dairi Regency, North Sumatra Province, covers an area of 12.50 km², accounting for approximately 30.60% of the total regency area. Although the majority of its population is Muslim, both the proficiency in reading the Qur’an and the general reading culture among the community remain relatively low. The only reading facility available, the Arke Menjaha Reading House—established by the local mosque congregation—faces limited resources and low community engagement. This community service initiative aims to foster reading interest, particularly among children, and to improve the ability to read the Qur’an accurately. To achieve these objectives, a Participatory Action Research (PAR) approach was implemented through three stages: problem identification via collaborative discussions, program implementation involving literacy development and Qur’anic reading training, and impact evaluation. Interventions included expanding the book collection, providing illustrated reading materials, and applying the talaqqi tahsinul Qur’an method. The results indicated a 70% increase in reading house visitors (ages 6–15), and participant attendance in the Qur’anic reading sessions reached 75–100% across 6 of the 8 planned meetings. This initiative is expected to support the sustainability of learning and encourage the spread of Qur’anic reading skills among village children.

Abstract

The Villa Ciomas RW 10 Farmer Group (PokTan Vici 10), actively engaged in urban farming in Ciomas Rahayu Village, Bogor, West Java, has been utilizing a small plot of land located next to the Cisindangbarang River. Their urban farming area already includes a small fishpond but lacks aquaponics equipment. The community service team aims to enhance the utility of the urban farming facilities by installing aquaponics equipment, providing workshops on basic hydroponics and aquaponics knowledge, exploring its business potential, and offering hands-on hydroponics and aquaponics cultivation practice. Throughout the program, the team also conducts monitoring and guidance to ensure successful implementation and address any challenges encountered during the training program. The hydroponic/aquaponics equipment installation was successful; however, nutrient supply from the fishponds only was initially suboptimal, prompting the addition of hydroponic nutrients. Hydroponic techniques were also introduced for vegetable cultivation. Based on a questionnaire analysis conducted before and after the training, the program positively impacted participants, significantly enhancing their knowledge and aquaponic skills (Wilcoxon signed-rank test, p<0.05). In conclusion, the aquaponics equipment was successfully installed, and participants gained foundational knowledge and skills in aquaponics, enabling them to independently manage aquaponics systems through to harvest. Looking ahead, the community members plan to explore business opportunities in selling hydroponics/aquaponics products.

Abstract

Students of the Social Work Vocational Program at SMK Bhakti Luhur face challenges in understanding and applying Gluten-Free Casein-Free (GFCF) diet interventions for children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). This lack of understanding affects their readiness as future social workers to provide dietary-based services for children with special needs. To address this issue, a community service activity was conducted through training and the development of a GFCF diet pocketbook tailored to the characteristics of vocational students. The pocketbook contains educational material on the principles of the GFCF diet, lists of recommended and prohibited foods, cooking tips, and practical guidelines for daily application. The activity adopted a project-based learning approach, starting with material delivery followed by hands-on practice in preparing GFCF menus. Evaluation was conducted using pre-test and post-test assessments on 125 students, showing a 43.6% increase in understanding. The Wilcoxon test indicated a significant improvement (Z = -7.560, p < 0.05), and the average N-Gain score was 0.301, classified as moderate. The pocketbook served not only as a training tool but also as a self-learning resource. This initiative is expected to enhance students' capacity to support community-based nutritional interventions for children with ASD.

Abstract

Screening of diabetic foot neuropathy and vasculopathy using monofilament and Ankle-Brachial Index (ABI) devices is a crucial step in the early detection of potential complications in diabetic patients. These screening tools are simple yet effective methods to assess sensory loss and peripheral arterial disease, which are major risk factors for the development of diabetic foot ulcers. Early identification allows for timely interventions that can significantly reduce the risk of severe complications such as infections, gangrene, and lower limb amputations. In addition to regular screening, prevention strategies should be implemented consistently. These include maintaining good glycemic control through routine blood sugar monitoring, adhering to a balanced and regulated diet, and engaging in regular physical activity. One recommended form of exercise is diabetic foot exercise, which helps improve blood circulation in the lower limbs and enhances nerve function, thereby reducing the risk of foot-related complications. Comprehensive foot care education, combined with these preventive measures, plays a vital role in improving the quality of life of individuals with diabetes and minimizing the burden of diabetic foot disease on both patients and the healthcare system.

Abstract

Floods are disasters that often occur in the community. Floods are often caused by high levels of rainfall, overflowing rivers, and so on. Community empowerment is an activity to create community participation in overcoming community problems independently through making biopore infiltration holes which is one of the efforts to overcome flood inundation in Paya Geli Village, Sunggal District. The aim of making biopore holes is to increase the soil's ability to absorb water, reduce surface flow which can cause floods, and maximize the role of soil organisms in recycling organic material. This activity involves the active participation of the Paya Geli Village community. The implementation method is through Focus Group Discussion (FGD), method demonstrations, and discussions in making biopore holes. Based on the results of community empowerment activities, it shows that 90 percent of PKK women have a good understanding of how to make biopore infiltration holes, while the other 10 percent do not understand, but they video the demonstration of the method so that they can do it themselves with their husbands and the effectiveness of infiltration holes is proven to be 80 percent effective in reducing flooding in the area.Apart from that, this activity also encourages the formation of community self-help groups that are committed to maintaining and preserving the biopore holes that have been created. Thus, community empowerment through the creation of biopore absorption holes has proven to be able to solve the flooding problem in Paya Geli Village in a sustainable manner.
