Abstract

Stunting remains a serious public health issue in Indonesia, particularly among children under five years of age. One of the main causes of stunting is the lack of understanding and practice of balanced nutrition, especially among pregnant women and mothers with toddlers. This community service activity aims to improve the knowledge of pregnant women regarding balanced nutrition as an effort to prevent stunting. The implementation stages include preparation, execution, and monitoring and evaluation. The community service activity was carried out on August 27, 2025, in the working area of Bungus Health Center, Padang. The participants in the community service were 10 pregnant women. The activity lasted for 120 minutes, including a pre-test on pregnant women's knowledge of nutrition and pregnancy, blood sugar and hemoglobin tests to identify pregnancy complications, providing education on nutrition during pregnancy, and a post-test. The mean knowledge score increased from 7.10 before the intervention to 8.70 after the intervention. Statistical analysis using a paired t-test showed a significant improvement in knowledge (p = 0.005). These results indicate the need for periodic health education for pregnant women during antenatal visits, especially regarding pregnancy care related to meeting nutritional needs during pregnancy.

Abstract

Creative Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) often face operational and administrative constraints that impede their market survival. Redchic Accessories, a small business specializing in fashion accessories, experienced operational inefficiencies, irregular bookkeeping, and traditional marketing bottlenecks. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of a university-led capacity-building program in improving business management, financial accountability, operational efficiency, and digital marketing of Redchic Accessories. Utilizing a Participatory Action Research (PAR) approach across sequential planning, action, and reflection cycles, the team engaged the business owner and 3 key employees over a 4-month intervention period. The framework focused on instituting standardized operating procedures (SOPs), deploying digital bookkeeping ledger spreadsheets, and optimizing online storefront architectures. Quantitative operational monitoring revealed that the intervention minimized production cycle delays from a baseline of 4 days down to 1.5 days, reduced raw material wastage by 28%, achieved a 100% monthly financial recording completion rate, and drove an 18.5% growth in marketplace traffic. In conclusion, the participatory intervention substantially improved managerial practices and established a stronger foundation for sustainable business development.

Abstract

The transformation of State Vocational High Schools (SMK Negeri) into Regional Public Service Agencies (BLUD) in West Sumatra Province provides institutional flexibility to commercialize student-led products and services. However, most SMKN BLUD units experience critical limitations in market positioning, commercial branding, and structured distribution channels, which leads to suboptimal revenue generation. This community service project aims to resolve these commercial barriers by delivering integrated business analysis and strategic marketing intervention through a provincial sharing session and adaptive mentoring framework. Utilizing a Participatory Action Research (PAR) approach across three structured cycles, the program engaged 43 SMKN school principals across West Sumatra in highly collaborative strategy formulations. The training focused on transitioning schools from conventional educational output mindsets toward professional market-driven orientation using corporate segmentation, targeting, positioning (STP), and the digital marketing mix. Quantitative evaluation via pre- and post-test instruments indicated a substantial 34.8% increase in participants' strategic comprehension (from a mean score of 62.1 to 83.7). Furthermore, the intervention successfully generated 43 preliminary digital marketing roadmaps and achieved a 92% participant satisfaction rate. In conclusion, embedding adaptive marketing strategies into vocational public service models effectively bridges the gap between educational innovation and market demand, creating a sustainable foundation for vocational financial independence.

Abstract

Adolescent mental health problems require early identification and school-based follow-up. This community service program aimed to map self-reported symptoms of depression, anxiety, and stress and to deliver mental health education and Youth Mental Health Cadre orientation at SMK N 1 Lembah Gumanti. On May 28, 2025, 225 eleventh-grade students completed the Indonesian Depression Anxiety Stress Scales for Youth (IDASS-Y) and participated in face-to-face education, coping-skill demonstrations, and peer-support orientation. Screening data were analyzed descriptively. Symptoms above the normal category were identified for anxiety in 90 students (40.0%), depression in 56 (24.9%), and stress in 51 (22.7%). Moderate-to-extremely-severe categories were recorded in 54 students (24.0%) for anxiety, 34 (15.1%) for depression, and 28 (12.4%) for stress. The program delivered education and clarified cadres’ roles as peer educators and referral connectors. However, no pre-post assessment measured changes in literacy, stigma, behavior, or cadre competence. The findings support confidential follow-up for students with elevated scores, supervised peer support, and a formal referral pathway linking the school with primary care and mental health professionals. Future programs should include pre-post and follow-up evaluation.

Abstract

The National Health Insurance (JKN) programme aims to improve public access to high-quality, equitable and affordable healthcare services. Inadequate access to health insurance can lead to delays in receiving healthcare, increase the burden of healthcare costs, and reduce the utilisation of healthcare services. To support easier access to services, BPJS Kesehatan has developed the Mobile JKN app. However, the use of this app by outpatients is still not optimal due to a lack of knowledge, digital literacy skills, and guidance on how to use the app. This community service initiative aims to improve the knowledge and skills of outpatients in utilising the Mobile JKN app through digital education and guidance. The activity was carried out at the Bandar Negara Husada Regional General Hospital, Lampung, involving 60 participants comprising 40 BPJS Kesehatan-enrolled outpatients and 20 family members of patients. The methods used included awareness-raising sessions, group counselling, demonstrations of how to use the app, and hands-on guidance on operating the Mobile JKN features. The evaluation was carried out using pre-tests and post-tests to measure improvements in knowledge, as well as observations to assess participants’ skills. The results of the programme showed that participants’ knowledge and skills in using the Mobile JKN app improved after taking part in the training and guidance. This programme has strategic implications for BPJS Kesehatan, hospitals and local governments as a model for health digital literacy education that can be integrated into routine services to enhance the independence of JKN participants, expand the use of digital services, improve service efficiency, and support the acceleration of digital health transformation in Indonesia.

Abstract

Orphanages, as communal living facilities, are vulnerable to the transmission of infectious diseases due to overcrowding, inadequate sanitation, and the low implementation of clean and healthy living behaviors. These conditions require health promotion and disease prevention interventions through educational programs to improve residents' knowledge, awareness, and hygiene practices. This community service program to improve the understanding of children and caregivers at An-Nuriyyah Orphanage regarding the importance of environmental hygiene in preventing infectious diseases. used to carry out the activities included health education, demonstrations of proper handwashing techniques, interactive discussions, question-and-answer sessions, and the use of posters as a visual communication medium. Success was assessed by comparing knowledge levels before and after the intervention. The results demonstrated a significant improvement in participants' knowledge, with the average score increasing from 39.0% before the intervention to 85.8% after the intervention, representing an increase of 46.8%. Participants also showed high enthusiasm and were able to correctly perform the recommended handwashing procedures. In conclusion, an educational approach combining health education, hands- on demonstrations, and active participation effectively improves participants' understanding and promotes the sustainable adoption of clean and healthy living behaviors in the orphanage environment.

Abstract

Pineapple peel, crown, leaf, and stem residues generated in the Tangkit Baru agrotourism area have not been optimally utilized and are commonly left around plantations. This community engagement program aimed to strengthen farmers’ practical capacity to convert pineapple residues into bioenergy briquettes through participatory training. The program was conducted on 29 May 2025 at the Tangkit Baru Village Hall, Muaro Jambi Regency, involving 20 members of the Tangkit Pineapple Agrotourism Farmers’ Group. Activities comprised preliminary coordination, interactive education, demonstration, group practice, discussion, process observation, and oral feedback. Participants were organized into five groups and practiced feedstock drying, six-hour carbonization, grinding, mixing 200 g of pineapple-waste charcoal with 40 g of tapioca flour and 100 mL of water, molding, and five-day sun drying. All groups completed the practice sequence and produced briquette samples that retained their form after demolding. Participants identified possible group-based uses of the product; however, fuel quality and economic feasibility were not tested. The program demonstrates the practicality of hands-on training for introducing simple waste-valorization technology to a farmer group. Follow-up assistance should include standardized testing of moisture, ash, volatile matter, fixed carbon, calorific value, mechanical durability, emissions, production costs, and market feasibility before commercial production.

Abstract

Disasters can have catastrophic effects on communities, particularly when residents are inadequately prepared to recognise hazards and respond effectively. Within the penta-helix framework, communities are key stakeholders in disaster preparedness. Community participation can be strengthened through community disaster-preparedness volunteers, locally referred to as cadres, who represent local needs and support preparedness and response activities. Capacity-building for these volunteers should include hazard recognition, self-rescue, first aid, and victim evacuation. This community engagement programme aimed to strengthen the capacity of disaster-preparedness groups to recognise hazards, perform self-rescue, provide emergency first aid, and evacuate victims. The pre- and post-training knowledge assessment showed a marked shift: responses classified as poor decreased from 80.0% to 17.3%, whereas responses classified as good increased from 20.0% to 82.7%. Effective disaster management requires well-trained community personnel and strong intersectoral coordination and communication through community-based networks. Continuous and recurrent training should therefore be incorporated into routine supervision and development, with subsequent programmes addressing more advanced and diverse competencies.

Abstract

Stingless-bee honey has economic potential for forest-based communities, but small producer groups often face connected constraints in quality control, production, branding, business administration, and market access. This community service program strengthened the competitiveness of the galo-galo honey enterprise managed by the Sungai Gariang Forest Farmer Group (KTH) in Lubuk Minturun, West Sumatra. Conducted from May to December 2025, the program used participatory problem identification, technical training, field mentoring, and end-line evaluation. Outcomes were assessed through observation, practical demonstrations, production and sales records, activity documentation, and before-and-after descriptive comparison. The intervention provided a moisture meter, 10 stingless-bee colonies, a digital scale and power support, three bottle formats, branding and product-diversification assistance, simple financial recording, and digital marketing training. The moisture meter enabled an initial measurable assessment of approximately 30%, demonstrating that moisture reduction remained necessary. Production increased from 10 kg to 12 kg per harvest, or 20%, while recorded sales rose by approximately 20–25% during the first three months after digital promotion began. The group adopted the Lomin brand, activated TikTok and Shopee, and obtained halal certification and a PIRT permit. The findings show that sequencing technical, managerial, institutional, and marketing interventions can strengthen enterprise capacity, although moisture-reduction technology and longer-term market monitoring remain necessary.

Abstract

This community service assistance program aimed to accelerate the institutional transformation of SMKS YAPENTOP Toboali, South Bangka Regency, following its official designation as a Vocational High School Center of Excellence (SMK-PK). SMKS YAPENTOP Toboali faced several critical management barriers, specifically a misalignment between its school vision and annual action roadmaps, lack of technical standard operating procedures in its teaching factory units, and insufficient data mapping for industrial teacher internship programs. To resolve these problems, Universitas Andalas executed a structured university-led mentoring program spanning six months. This article specifically discusses the outcomes of the third and fourth mentoring phases conducted between September and November 2021. The methods used included Participatory Action Research (PAR) combined with collaborative strategic workshops. The main interventions consisted of direct site infrastructure reviews, strategic roadmap synchronization, and mapping of local industrial partners (DUDIKA). The results showed that the program established a structured institutional roadmap, updated the school's vision to match industrial competencies, and provided management guidelines for the campus teaching factory. These outputs provide an institutional foundation for strengthening vocational school governance and continued curriculum-industry alignment.
