Abstract

Household waste management, especially organic waste from the kitchen, is one of the serious problems faced by rural communities in Indonesia. Waste in the form of fruit peels and vegetable scraps from daily cooking activities is often not managed properly so it has the potential to pollute the environment and cause health problems. The purpose of waste management activities through the production of ecoenzyme is to assist the community of Tenggiring Village, Sambeng Sub-district, Lamongan Regency, in processing kitchen waste, such as vegetables and fruits, into valuable products. This activity is crucial considering the increasing global warming and the growing volume of household waste, thus processing organic waste into eco-enzyme can be an environmentally friendly solution. The fermentation product of eco-enzyme has many benefits, such as a natural floor and toilet cleaner, unclogging drains, fertilizing plants, repelling insects, and its residue can be utilized as organic fertilizer. The method used was participatory through socialization, counselling, and direct demonstration with the involvement of Universitas Muhammadiyah Lamongan students. The results show that the residents were able to understand and practice eco-enzyme production using simple ingredients such as brown sugar, vegetable and fruit residues, water, and recycled containers with a fermentation process of three months. The community showed high enthusiasm since the product proved useful for household, environmental, and agricultural needs, while also reducing the volume of organic waste. This activity had a positive impact in increasing environmental awareness among the community and demonstrated that organic waste management can be implemented in an affordable, easy, and sustainable way.

Abstract

Tandung village has the largest buffalo population in the Tinambung sub-district and in the entire Polewali Mandar district. The 39% increase in buffalo population over the past ten years to 320 buffalo has made the Tinambung sub-district the sub-district with the largest buffalo population in the Polewali Mandar district. The problems farmers face is related to the uncertainty of selling their livestock. When farmers need money, they will first bring some of their livestock to the animal market in North Tana Toraja Regency, which is 94 km from Tandung Village. The farmer will return the sheep to Tandung Village if the livestock is not sold. Farmers also must rent a pick-up truck to transport buffalo cattle or use a car if they are carrying a larger number. Therefore, community service activities were carried out to enable partners to maximise the use of Instagram as a digital marketing medium to help buffalo farmers in Tandung Village market with their livestock. The service activity consists of 4 stages: assessment, training, monitoring and evaluation, and publication. This service activity was carried out on 7 September 2024 in Tandung Village, Tinambung District, Polewali Mandar Regency. This service activity was attended by 32 participants, consisting of service partners, namely members of the Simemangan Livestock Farmer Group, and Field Agricultural Extension Officers (PPL) and village officials. The method used in the training stage is the participatory extension approach, accompanied by demonstrations and practices related to digital marketing. Community service activities at the Simemangan Livestock Farmer Group, Tandung Village, Tinambung District, and Polewali Mandar Regency increased general knowledge about digital marketing, especially using Instagram as a promotional medium. Based on the pre-test and post-test evaluation, it can improve understanding from 44% to 77%.

Abstract

In Indonesia, soil-transmitted worm infestation remains a serious public health problem, especially for young children. The high incidence of worms increases the risk of stunting, anemia, and malnutrition in children. Prevention efforts are hampered by low public awareness and the belief that worms are not a serious disease. The objective of this community service project is to educate mothers of toddlers and Integrated Health Post cadres about worm prevention. Counselling and health education through booklets are among the techniques used at integrated health post Kemuning A, Ratu Jaya Community Health Center. Participants in this activity consisted of 17 mothers of toddlers and 9 cadres from the integrated health post. On December 17, 2025, the activity was carried out through counselling, discussions, and a question-and-answer session. The results of a qualitative evaluation showed that mothers' awareness of risk factors and how to prevent worms had increased, as had the cadres' knowledge, awareness, and confidence in educating the community. It was concluded that by using Integrated health post-based education strategies, this program succeeded in empowering the community to prevent worms in toddlers.

Abstract

This community service activity aims to enhance students' and community members' knowledge, awareness, and participation in climate change mitigation efforts through socialization and mangrove seedling planting. The selection of mangrove seedling planting locations is based on observations of degrading mangrove forests that still have the potential for natural regeneration. In addition, the location is prioritized in areas experiencing anthropogenic pressure, coastal erosion, and excessive sedimentation. Socio-economic considerations are also a key factor. The planting location is close to residential areas to encourage public participation and environmental awareness. This activity is carried out in the mangrove forest tourism area, Oesapa village, Kelapa Lima sub-district, Kupang City, over a period of 2 months, namely November – December. The method for implementing the activity consists of three stages: socializing students about the role of mangrove forests; cleaning the area with the surrounding community; planting mangrove seedlings; and initial maintenance and monitoring. In addition to increasing knowledge and awareness of mangrove forests' functions, this activity also contributes to the rehabilitation of mangrove areas. It strengthens collaboration among students, the community, the government, and academics in the effort to preserve mangrove forests.

Abstract

The Uniflor Mengabdi Community Service Program (KKN) is a form of community engagement carried out by students at the University of Flores in collaboration with Field Supervising Lecturers (DPL). This program was designed to support the community of Anakoli Village in developing the tourism potential of Kota Jogo beach. The objective of the program is to enhance the destination's attractiveness through environmental management and the provision of simple, eco-friendly facilities grounded in local wisdom. The implementation method employed a participatory approach, actively involving the community in the stages of needs identification, program planning, activity implementation, and joint evaluation. The activities implemented included constructing waste bins, bamboo seating, photo spots in the form of swings and signage, and community service to clean the access road to Kota Jogo beach. The results of these activities demonstrated positive changes, including a cleaner coastal environment, the availability of basic tourism facilities, and increased community participation in destination management. The impact of this program is expected to increase tourist visits and create opportunities for the community to develop tourism-based businesses. Thus, the KKN program contributes to sustainable tourism development by actively involving the local community.
