Abstract

68% of household waste consists of organic waste, which significantly contributes to environmental pollution and can cause disruption if not managed properly. Unfortunately, proper management of organic waste is lacking, with a predominant method of disposal being dumping in empty land, waterways, or burning. However, organic waste holds potential for eco-friendly solutions such as eco enzymes. The objective of this community service initiative was to train individuals in producing eco enzymes from organic waste at SD Muhammadiyah PK Kottabarat Surakarta. The activities included educating the community about organic waste processing and conducting training sessions on eco enzyme production, including packaging and labeling. As a result of these efforts, teachers and students at SD Muhammadiyah Kottabarat gained the skills to utilize leftover fruit and vegetable waste, producing a total of 18 liters of eco enzymes. This included 2 jars of eco enzymes from vegetable waste and 4 jars from orange peels.

Abstract

Returning workers often face challenges in identifying suitable employment upon their return to Indonesia. The objective of this initiative is to enhance the entrepreneurial skills of migrant workers in the special branch of Penang, Malaysia. Motivating them to establish businesses based on halal products is a crucial aspect of this effort, providing valuable insights and provisions for their reintegration into Indonesia. The training focuses on soybean juice production using locally sourced soybeans. Pre and post-tests were conducted before and after the activity to assess the workers' knowledge levels regarding halal product-based entrepreneurship. The pre-test results yielded a mean score of 57.26 ± 20.59 SD, while the post-test showed improvement with a mean score of 76.5 ± 8.5 SD. The results indicate a significant increase in knowledge following the training. Notably, two female workers successfully applied the soybean juice-making skills acquired during the training. In conclusion, providing motivation and training for halal product-based entrepreneurship to migrant workers is effective in enhancing their knowledge and practical skills in this field.

Abstract

The higher prevalence of stunting in South Sulawesi compared to the national average poses a significant health concern for children, thus necessitating accelerated efforts to reduce stunting. One of the updated strategies for accelerating stunting reduction is the family-centered approach through mentoring families at risk of stunting via the formation of Family Mentor Teams (TPK). Therefore, the objective of this community service is to enhance the role of TPKs by providing comprehensive training on the handling and prevention of stunting from pre-conception to children aged 0-59 months. The implementation method utilizes community-based participatory research (CBPR). The activity was attended by 139 TPKs from 12 districts. The results of the activity demonstrate the effectiveness of the training, as evidenced by an increase in participants' knowledge scores in the post-test (12.96 ± 1.44) compared to the pre-test scores (11.12 ± 1.73).

Abstract

A crucial responsibility of teachers lies in fostering innovative learning processes. Meaningful learning experiences facilitate students' comprehension of the subject matter. Consequently, the need arises for instructional media to serve as teaching aids, cultivating an engaging learning environment for students. The core concept of instructional media lies in facilitating students' understanding from abstract to concrete concepts. Its primary functions include serving as a learning resource, providing information and knowledge to students. Furthermore, instructional media can motivate learning, reinforce previously learned material, and stimulate students. One such innovative tool is the "rumah listrik cahaya" (Rulisca). Rulisca's design is rooted in the instructional media needs of science education and the psychological conditions of phase B or fourth graders in elementary schools. This medium is specifically tailored for the topic of energy transformation. During its implementation, students are guided to comprehend the relationship between solar panels and LED lights, enabling them to grasp the concrete process of energy transformation.

Abstract

Protected forests serve as the fundamental protection for the support system of life, regulating water resources, preventing floods, controlling erosion, mitigating saltwater intrusion, and preserving soil fertility. However, in reality, many protected forests are converted into agricultural land. To address this issue, the government grants land use permits through the Community Forest (HKm) system. The HKm system typically involves planting a combination of agricultural and forestry crops (agroforestry). The variety of crops grown in one area yields abundant harvests, but it also generates a significant amount of waste. Consequently, waste becomes a problem, although plant waste can be utilized to make compost. The objective of this community service activity is to provide education and training on making compost blocks. The method employed in this activity is education and training provided to farmers. The results of this community service activity enhance the knowledge of the Pujo Makmur Farmer Group regarding the benefits of compost blocks, the process of making them, and their usage.

Abstract

Stunting remains a pressing health concern that demands attention from all members of society. In Palembang City, the number of stunting cases has risen alarmingly from 100 in 2023 to 224. The root causes lie in limited knowledge about balanced nutrition and a tendency to consume unhealthy fast food. This community service initiative aimed to enhance awareness about the significance of adopting healthy food management practices as a strategy to combat stunting. The project employed a Participatory Rural Appraisal (PRA) approach, encompassing socialization, training, and mentorship. The intervention yielded remarkable results, with knowledge levels among participants increasing from 65% to 95%. This demonstrates the effectiveness of the training in empowering the community with knowledge about balanced nutrition, healthy and nutritious meals for children, and stunting prevention strategies. Furthermore, the community demonstrated creativity by developing an innovative food supplement called "SABI nuggets," made from patin fish and carrots.

Abstract

A serious problem often faced in Kelurahan 13 Ulu, involving RT 13, RT 14, RT 15, and RT 16, is waste management. The community's level of knowledge regarding waste management in this area is still low, exacerbated by a lack of supporting facilities that worsen environmental conditions. Therefore, this activity aims to address these issues by educating residents on the importance of cleanliness, proper waste separation, and utilizing waste for economic value. The method used involves preparation, implementation, and evaluation stages, including installing signs prohibiting waste dumping at various locations where waste accumulates. The positive impact of this activity includes increased awareness of cleanliness, improved understanding of waste sorting, and knowledge of its benefits. Additionally, residents are educated on the 3R principle (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle) for waste processing, leading to a better understanding of waste management, particularly in separating organic and inorganic waste.
