Abstract

Jatijejer Village, located between the slopes of Mount Penanggungan and Mount Welirang, has significant potential for cultivating aromatic plants, particularly lemongrass (Cymbopogon citratus) and citronella (Cymbopogon nardus). These plants are sources of essential oils with various benefits, including uses in aromatherapy, antibacterial, and anti-inflammatory applications, and are widely utilized in the cosmetics and healthcare industries. Despite this potential, the community of Jatijejer Village previously only utilized lemongrass as raw material, yielding suboptimal economic value and welfare improvement. This community service program aims to enhance the welfare of Jatijejer Village through the production and diversification of essential oil-based products. Activities included training in steam distillation techniques, quality measurement of essential oils, and the development of derivative products such as inhalers and diffusers. Evaluation results showed a significant improvement in participants' knowledge and skills. The average pre-test score of 58.4 percent increased to 97.2 percent in the post-test. Additionally, the essential oils produced were successfully developed into value-added products, such as inhalers and diffusers, which have begun to be marketed locally. Solid waste from the distillation process was also utilized as organic fertilizer, reinforcing the program's sustainability. This training effectively improved the skills, income, and economic independence of the Jatijejer Village community.

Abstract

The new paradigm of the Merdeka Curriculum emphasizes the implementation of differentiated learning, aiming to provide enjoyable learning experiences tailored to students' knowledge levels and learning needs. This Community Service Program is designed to train early childhood education (PAUD) teachers to adapt and innovate in Differentiated Learning using Loose Parts. The program targets PAUD teachers at the Cluster Activity Center (PKG) in Jelbuk District, Jember Regency. The participating community comprises 17 PAUD institutions, with a total of 30 PAUD teachers involved. The program is conducted in three stages: socialization, training, and best practice mentoring. Methods employed include lectures, quizzes, and project-based activities. Based on participant satisfaction questionnaires, the results of this community service initiative reveal high satisfaction scores: 96.67 percent in the attitude aspect, 90 percent in the knowledge aspect, and 90 percent in the skills aspect. Furthermore, through best practice activities, teachers achieved optimal knowledge and skill transfer. This will enable them to innovate Differentiated Learning activities using Loose Parts, which can be implemented in the learning activities of their respective PAUD institutions.

Abstract

This community service initiative addresses the need for an efficient population administration system in RT3/RW3, Rejowinangun Utara Village, Magelang, where several key issues hinder effective data management. These problems include manual record-keeping with logbooks, which may increase the risk of errors and data loss, limited accessibility to population information, and challenges in adopting digital technology due to limited technical knowledge and infrastructure. To resolve these problems, this activity is conducted in four phases: data gathering, system development, evaluation, and user training. During the data-gathering phase, discussions with the community leader and the collection of family record data were conducted to identify specific needs and challenges. The system development phase focused on creating a user-friendly web-based Population Administration System (PAS) tailored to these requirements. In the evaluation phase, the system was tested and refined based on feedback from the community leader to ensure functionality and usability. The user training phase provided hands-on experience to the community leader, enabling independent use of the system for managing data and generating demographic summaries. The implementation of PAS successfully transformed administrative processes into digital and improved data accessibility for the local community.

Abstract

The protection and well-being of women and children are essential pillars for fostering a safe, and resilient society. This community service initiative focuses on enhancing the safety and support systems for women and children in ‘Aisiyah organization Caturharjo, Sleman, by integrating family and community efforts. Through a participatory approach, the program emphasizes awareness-raising, and collaborative strategies to empower local stakeholders and promote a culture of shared responsibility. The initiative underscores the critical roles of family units, community organizations, and local leadership in preventing violence, ensuring access to essential services, and advocating for gender-sensitive and child-friendly policies. Engaging families and communities in dialogue and action, the program seeks to address systemic challenges and create a protective environment for vulnerable groups. Findings from the initiative reveal that the synergy between family and community efforts significantly contributes to sustainable protection measures and strengthens social resilience. The success of this initiative highlights the importance of inclusive, community-driven approaches in safeguarding women and children, offering valuable insights for replication in other regions. This community service effort not only addresses immediate safety concerns but also lays the foundation for long-term social change, demonstrating the transformative potential of collective action in building safer and more equitable communities.
