Abstract

Stunting is a national health issue with significant implications for the quality of future generations, making it a priority for the government at both central and local levels. This community service program aimed to enhance the knowledge and skills of mothers with children under two years old (infants) and posyandu cadres in Lembomawo Village, Poso Kota Selatan Subdistrict, on utilizing local food ingredients for supplementary feeding (PMT). Through counseling and cooking demonstrations, participants were introduced to three PMT recipes tailored to the food texture requirements of infants: 6–8 months (Bubur Singkong Kukuruyuk Saus Jeruk), 9–11 months (Nasi Tim Ikan Telur Sayuran), and 12–23 months (Tim Ikan Menado). Additionally, recipe books for local infant and maternal nutrition were distributed to mothers and posyandu cadres to serve as practical guidelines. The results of the program showed a significant increase in mothers' knowledge about the importance of supplementary feeding using local ingredients, from 23.6% prior to the intervention to 85.72% afterward. This program was conducted in collaboration with the Village Midwife and the Lembomawo Village Government, aiming to contribute to reducing stunting rates through sustainable utilization of local resources.

Abstract

Cases of violence against women and children in Buton Regency often go unreported, resulting in an increasing number of cases each year. Several contributing factors include the lack of community participation in providing information and support to victims, as well as a tendency to blame the victims. This condition discourages victims from fighting for their rights. To address this issue, legal education on the protection of women and children at the village level is essential. The objective of this activity is to enhance community understanding and participation in making Buton Regency free from violence against women and children. The method used in this Community Service activity is legal counseling. Prior to the counseling, the initial step involved identifying and inventorying the problems faced by the community. After conducting legal education through counseling sessions, the community demonstrated an increased understanding of the importance of protecting women and children, as well as their role in preventing violence and providing support to victims. This education is expected to contribute to creating a safer and more supportive environment for women and children in Buton Regency.

Abstract

Increasing family income in rural areas heavily relies on the active role of housewives. In Cigandeng Village, Menes District, many housewives are engaged in melinjo cracker production but only receive limited daily wages. Waste from the melinjo cracker-making process, such as the shells (inner skin) and outer skin, holds significant potential to be processed into high-value food products. This Community Service Program (PkM) aims to empower housewives by increasing family income through the diversification of products based on melinjo waste. The methods employed include participatory training involving experts to develop recipes and production techniques for melinjo waste-based food products. The training outcomes demonstrated improved participant skills in producing various processed products, such as dodol, kembang goyang, lidah kucing, semprong cookies, brownies, and putri salju cookies. These products have started to be commercialized by some training participants, contributing significantly to family income. This program not only encourages product diversification but also reduces waste, creating added value for the community.

Abstract

Lembah Pinus Magelang, located in Surodadi Village, Tepus Wetan Hamlet, faces challenges due to a lack of diverse tourist attractions, leading to low tourist interest and limited competitiveness of the area. To address this issue, the community service initiated the development of a fish therapy pond as a new attraction. This program was carried out in three main stages: identifying existing and supporting facilities, socializing the potential for fish therapy pond development with Pokdarwis Mekar Lestari, and assisting in the construction process of the fish therapy pond. The initial identification revealed that existing facilities, such as children’s play areas, outbound spaces, and camping grounds, were insufficient to sustainably attract visitors. The fish therapy pond was developed with an environmentally friendly design and involved the local community in its management. This new attraction successfully increased the area’s appeal, as evidenced by a rise in visitor numbers from 500 to 1,200 within two months after its opening. An entry fee of IDR 2,000 per visitor also contributed to additional income for the community through sustainable management. This program not only enhanced the diversity of tourist attractions at Lembah Pinus Magelang but also empowered the local community in managing tourism resources. The long-term impact is expected to include improved local economic development, better tourism management, and strengthened competitiveness of the area as a leading natural tourism destination.

On the marketing aspect, the program provided training on product photography and videography, registration on digital platforms such as Google Maps, Google Business, Instagram, and Shopee, as well as training on e-commerce utilization. The program results demonstrated increased production capacity with the addition of tools and materials, and expanded marketing reach through partner registration on various digital platforms. This program not only supports the sustainability of stamped batik culture based on local wisdom but also strengthens the competitiveness of the partners in a broader market.

Abstract

Sumberarum Village, Magelang Regency, holds great tourism potential with its natural hot springs, which remain underutilized. The main challenges include the lack of integrated digital information and limited digital marketing skills among the local community. This community service initiative aims to develop sustainable tourism potential through the creation of a village website and the evaluation of hot spring water quality. The approach includes developing a village website at desasumberarum.id as a centralized tourism information hub and measuring water quality parameters at four hot spring locations: Umbul Banyu Roso, Tirta Madu Barokah, Tirta Sambara, and Azzira Tirta Gemilang. Results indicate that the village website significantly improves information accessibility and supports digital tourism promotion. Additionally, water quality tests reveal that all parameters, including pH and alkalinity, fall within safe thresholds, suggesting potential health benefits of the hot spring water for visitors.

Abstract

A green economy in rural areas requires effective and sustainable waste management strategies to reduce environmental impact and improve community welfare. The Dahlia Waste Bank in Ngargogondo Village, Magelang Regency, faces challenges in enhancing management quality and productivity, particularly in organic waste processing.

This program employs a community empowerment approach to increase awareness, responsibility, and active participation in waste management. The program outcomes show a significant increase in the amount of waste processed into compost and improved waste bank management quality. Additionally, it has successfully expanded the community's understanding of the importance of waste management as part of the green economy, resulting in reduced environmental damage risks and enhanced local welfare.
