Abstract

Social media has created opportunities for children to become victims of bullying, sexual harassment, and other criminal activities. The target of this service activity is children who are in the transition phase to adolescence. This activity aims to educate school-aged children about the impact of social media on mental health and sexual violence against children at SDN 14 Gurun Laweh, Kota Padang. The education is delivered through lectures and discussions, complemented by pre-tests and post-tests to assess knowledge after receiving counseling on the impact of social media on mental health and sexual violence against children. These tests play a crucial role in evaluating the effectiveness of the program and guiding future interventions. Based on the difference in average scores before and after the counseling, students showed a significant improvement in three indicators: social media knowledge, which increased by 6,4; attitudes and actions, which changed by 4,2; and mental health and sexual violence awareness, which improved by 3,5. Preventive steps and interventions are essential to protect children from crime risk. Proper education for children by parents, teachers, and the surrounding community on how to use social media wisely and safely is critical to preventing sexual violence and reducing its negative impact on children's mental health.

Abstract

When comparing Lawang to Nagari Tigo Balai, the latter exhibits an attractive appearance on product packaging, which is one of the crucial factors in the marketing strategy of micro, small, and medium enterprises (UMKM). UMKM's issues in the Nagari Tigo Balai area include limited technology and knowledge in redesigning packaging. This Community Service Activity (PKM) aims to assist UMKM in Nagari Tigo Balai in designing packaging for "Barandang" peanut products. The method consists of three stages: observation, analysis of the content of "Barandang" peanut products, and assistance in designing packaging until the design is ready for printing. The result of the assistance activity is the creation of packaging designs for "Barandang" peanut products for two UMKMs in Nagari Tigo Balai, namely LBM and ARYA, with nutritional information on the packaging. Based on the discussion during the assistance activity, this packaging redesign assistance plays a crucial role for UMKM practitioners in making their marketed products more attractive, thus increasing buyers' interest and purchasing power even further.

Abstract

The Nagari Tageh concept, originally initiated earlier, has evolved into a broader scope, extending beyond the confines of the Covid-19 pandemic, with the overarching goal of accelerating the realization of Nagari Mandiri. The Tanjung Raya community's economic hardships, notably the Fish Farmers of Lake Maninjau, prompted our community engagement team to fortify the ‘New Nagari Tageh’ concept. The activity commenced with developing customized posters catering to the community's specific needs, encompassing imagery, color schemes, and language. Those posters served as a medium for publicizing the Nagari Tageh program in the Agam Regency. Furthermore, our community engagement team engaged in intensive discussions with the Agam Regency government, involving the Regional Development and Planning Agency (DPMD), to gain a better understanding of the on-ground situations and conditions faced by fish cage farmers in the Tanjung Raya subdistrict. Subsequently, our team provided counseling and further guidance to the fish cage farmers, ensuring the successful implementation of the ‘New Nagari Tageh’ concept. This holistic approach aimed to equip the community with the necessary knowledge and education to mitigate the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic across various aspects of community life. Furthermore, it sought to rejuvenate the economic prospects of the fish cage farmers in the Tanjung Raya subdistrict, embodying the essence of the ‘New Nagari Tageh’ concept.

Abstract

Hama merupakan salah satu permasalahan utama yang dihadapi petani karena dapat menurunkan hasil panen. Saat ini, pengendalian hama banyak dilakukan dengan menggunakan pestisida kimia. Mengingat dampak negatif penggunaan pestisida kimia, diperlukan sosialisasi untuk mendorong petani beralih ke pestisida nabati. Kegiatan pengabdian masyarakat ini dilaksanakan di Kelurahan Kapalo Koto, Pauh, Padang oleh mahasiswa Universitas Andalas dalam rangka Kuliah Kerja Nyata (KKN). Tujuan kegiatan ini adalah mensosialisasikan pembuatan dan penggunaan pestisida nabati, serta memberikan pemahaman tentang manfaatnya. Pestisida nabati dibuat dengan campuran bawang putih, lidah buaya, dan air yang difermentasi selama dua hari sebelum diaplikasikan pada tanaman. Pada akhir kegiatan, tim kegiatan pengabdian kepada masyarakat menyerahkan sampel pestisida nabati kepada Ketua Kelompok Tani, serta memberikan pelatihan dan pendampingan agar petani dapat membuat pestisida nabati secara mandiri di masa depan.

Abstract

Community midwifery and Family Oriented Midwifery Education (FOME) is a form of application of technological knowledge in the field of midwifery in the Midwifery Professional Midwifery Study Program, which is comprehensive throughout a woman's life cycle. One of the targets in the community is women of reproductive age, with the problem of the low number of family planning (KB) acceptors among couples of childbearing age (PUS). Community midwifery and FOME activities aim to discover the health conditions and problems in a community, especially in midwifery, so that solutions to these problems can be carried out. This activity uses a descriptive observational method with questionnaires and interviews in the RT 03 and RT 04 RW 02 community, Koto Luar Village, Pauh District, Padang City, West Sumatra. The activity results were 71 heads of families (KK) in RT 03/02 and 42 families in RT 04/02. As many as 96% of PUS in RT 03/02 and 56% in RT 04/02 were not family planning acceptors. Another problem was that 87% in RT 03/02 and 90% in RT 04/02 did not receive health education in the last 6 months, and as many as 56% in RT 03/02 and 78% in RT 04/02 did not carry out routine weighing of toddlers every the month. As a result of advocacy with community stakeholders and the Pauh Community Health Center, it was decided to provide education and health checks related to the problems encountered. The education and health checks that have been carried out provide information that benefits the community by increasing self-empowerment and dealing with existing problems.

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.
