Abstract

Sanggar Rangkiang Salayo, a women's business group specializing in knitting, strives for continuous innovation to ensure consumers' sustainability of its product acceptance. One innovative approach involves integrating knitting with batik patterns in each new product. To maintain the sustainability of creating combination products with unique batik motifs that can serve as the hallmark of Rayo products, the Sanggar Rangkiang participated in a training program in collaboration with Salingka Tabek Batik, renowned as a producer of distinctive Solok batik. The training method employed included training and mentoring in both hand-drawn and stamped batik, covering various stages such as fabric washing, design sketching, wax application, and coloring. At each stage, participants received guidance from instructors at the Salingka Tabek batik center. Through this training, members of the Rangkiang Salayo Studio expanded their skills from knitting to mastering hand-drawn and stamped batik and successfully created several batik designs. These designs were later incorporated into woven bag products, adding a unique signature touch and increasing the value of Rayo products in the market.

Abstract

Class II Special Juvenile Rehabilitation Center (LPA) in Tanjung Pati faces significant challenges in fostering adolescents, mainly due to the lack of knowledge about sexual education. This lack of awareness increases the risk of HIV and Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs) among LPA residents. To address this issue, more intensive prevention efforts were needed through comprehensive HIV/AIDS education. This community service program aims to enhance the understanding and awareness of adolescents in LPA regarding sexual education, mainly related to HIV/AIDS, as a concrete step in preventing the transmission of these diseases. The partner for this program is the Special Development Institution for Children Class II Tanjung Pati, focusing on male adolescents aged 14-19. The program results positively impacted the overall outcome, significantly increasing participants' understanding scores from pre- to post-intervention. Data analysis confirms that the intervention significantly improved participants' knowledge of HIV and STIs. The program needs continuous training for educators and staff at LPA on sexual education and the development of more comprehensive and integrated HIV prevention programs within the institution. This program not only succeeded in achieving its objectives but also provided hope for strengthening awareness and understanding of the importance of sexual education as a preventive measure against HIV and STIs among adolescents in LPA.

Abstract

The consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages (SSBs) has increased among adolescents, leading to adverse health effects such as a higher risk of type II diabetes mellitus, cardiovascular disorders, and obesity. This educational program aims to enhance students' understanding of the adverse effects of SSB consumption through lectures and workshops. The education was conducted at SMA Santo Kristoforus II on 26 April 2024 as part of a community service activity by the Pharmacy Study Program of the Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences, Atma Jaya Catholic University of Indonesia. The methods employed included delivering material on daily sugar requirements, the sugar metabolism cycle, the adverse effects of excessive sugar consumption, the sugar content in foods and drinks, and strategies to reduce sugar intake. Additionally, sugar content measurements were conducted on various packaged beverages using a refractometer. Pretest and post-test were used as indicators of the performance of the education process. Pretest results showed an average student understanding score of 63.8, which increased to 79.78 on the post-test, indicating a significant improvement in students' comprehension. The distribution of scores also improved, with more students achieving higher scores after their education. A satisfaction survey revealed that over 75% of students found the program beneficial and aligned with their needs. The increases in understanding and high satisfaction levels demonstrate the effectiveness of this program in conveying relevant and practical information. This educational program can be expanded to other schools to reduce SSB consumption among adolescents and mitigate health risks associated with excessive sugar intake.

Abstract

The use of technology is fundamental in the digital era. Adjustment and transformation are essential activities to keep up with technological developments. One of the uses of technology is product marketing and promotion. Sanjai Tourism Village, located in Bukittinggi City, is one of the villages where marketing and promotion of tourism products are still carried out using conventional promotional methods such as through newspapers, radio advertisements, posters, and distribution of brochures. This method is still limited and cannot reach a broader scope. Therefore, to compete in the digital era, there needs to be a transformation of promotion and marketing of tourism products through the internet media using a website. Information about promoting and marketing tourism products can be done digitally and online using a website. The results of advertising and marketing tourism village products by utilizing the website can be spread and known to the public with a broader reach. Therefore, in the community service activities of the Unand Computer Engineering Department, the Sanjai Tourism Village website was built with a method consisting of several stages, such as coordination, surveys, design, website implementation, improvement, and submission of the website to Sanjai Tourism Village. Each stage has been carried out, and a website has been produced with features such as a homepage, profile, tourism products of various fields, news and activities, and contacts.

Abstract

Sexually transmitted infections (STIs) are a significant public health challenge worldwide. Besides being transmitted through sexual intercourse, STIs can also be transmitted from mother to fetus during pregnancy, childbirth, and breastfeeding. Inadequate surveillance systems, community stigma, and limited access to health care hinder efforts to prevent STI transmission. Therefore, effective interventions are needed. This study aimed to increase the knowledge of the religious affairs office (KUA) staff about STIs and prevention of transmission so that KUA can become a partner to the community health center in providing counseling on healthy reproductive life to prospective couples. Participants were Cilandak KUA's staff and couples who came there. Activities included educational presentations, group discussions, and distribution of educational materials. Pre- and post-tests were conducted to measure the level of knowledge. Questionnaires were used to collect data on demographic characteristics, attitudes, and couple's willingness to undergo STI screening. The results showed an increase in the knowledge of couples and staff regarding STIs and prevention of transmission. Presentation by the doctor was the most effective method. This activity shows KUA's potency as a partner of a community health center in promoting STI prevention. However, ongoing support, training, and evaluation are needed to ensure that accurate information is consistently provided to the couples.

Abstract

One of the Muda Mandiri farmer groups located in Nagari Sungai Pua, Sungai Pua District, has 30 Peranakan Etawa goats, and this farmer group consists of 11 farmers. This group is one of the highly developed dairy goat farming businesses in Agam Regency. This community service activity aims to apply fermented tithonia technology as an alternative forage feed for ruminants to improve the feed efficiency of dairy goats. The activity method consists of several steps. First, farmer groups were taught about how to manage forage feed and the benefits of thitonia fermentation. Second, they learned the fermentation process, which starts with chopping tithonia, mixing it with inoculum (L. bulgaricus), adding molasses, and mixing it with bran. This mixture was kept in a container without air exposure for fourteen days. Third, the fermented product was tested directly as feed for dairy goats to determine how palatable it was and how much it impacted milk production. Important results showed that although milk production was almost the same as the previous feed using field grass, fermented tithonia could replace up to 30% of field grass. The farmer does not need to search for grass daily, as time and effort are spent more efficiently providing feed. In conclusion, fermented tithonia is an effective and easy-to-implement technology to help dairy goat farmers obtain a more efficient alternative feed, which eases their workload.

Abstract

The social media content creation workshop for health promotion involves non-commercial partners of Achmad Darwis Hospital, Limapuluh Kota Regency, West Sumatra. Along with the development of information technology and digitalization, partners are increasingly aware of the need to optimize social media management as a key element in building the image of the hospital and improving the quality of services to the community. However, existing human resources do not yet have specific expertise in creating effective content for social media. Therefore, it is necessary to hold a social media content creation workshop in order to improve the skills of the Achmad Darwis Hospital health promotion (Promkes) team. A total of 20 participants were involved in this activity. The activity was carried out in stages, starting with lectures, practice, and finally discussions. Quantitatively, an evaluation was carried out by conducting a written test on the material that had been given. The results showed that there was an increase in participants' knowledge in making videos by comparing the test results before and after training. The results obtained from this activity contribute to improving the ability of the Achmad Darwis Hospital Health Promotion team to create content for social media that can improve the image of the hospital and optimize services for the community. It is hoped that this activity can improve the knowledge, skills, and abilities (KSA) of the Achmad Darwis Hospital health promotion team in developing content for social media. It is recommended for health promotion teams to continue to hone their skills in creating health content in order to optimize hospital services and performance.
