Abstract

ABSTRACT Vector-borne diseases, particularly mosquitoes like Aedes aegypti, remain a serious public health issue in Indonesia. One environmentally friendly solution is the use of mosquito-repellent plants such as citronella (Cymbopogon nardus), which contains active compounds such as citronellal and geraniol, which have been proven effective as natural repellents. This community service program aims to provide training to residents on how to make mosquito repellent spray from citronella, while also encouraging the potential for home-based businesses based on natural ingredients. The implementation method includes counseling, demonstrations, and hands-on practice in spray making. The results showed that participants experienced an increase in their understanding of dengue fever by 30%, the benefits of citronella by 33%, extraction skills by 55%, spray formulation by 57%, and packaging by 40%. This activity also succeeded in fostering entrepreneurial interest among participants. Thus, this training not only provides a preventive solution to vector-borne diseases but also opens up opportunities for economic growth based on local potential.   Keywords: Vector-borne diseases, Citronella-based repellent, Community empowerment

Abstract

ABSTRACT The community service activities in Talok Village aim to empower small-scale chicken farmers to support local food security and the achievement of the National Nutrition Master Plan (MBG). The method used is a participatory approach through problem identification, extension, training, demonstration, mentoring, and joint evaluation involving Golden Egg Farm (600 chickens) and Amanah Farm (500 chickens) as partners. The results of the activities showed an increase in egg productivity from 65% to 72% at Golden Egg Farm and from 60% to 68% at Amanah Farm, with a total contribution of around 23,160 eggs/month (139 kg of protein), feed cost efficiency of 15-17%, and a 3-4% reduction in mortality rates. In addition, farm waste was processed into ±45 kg of compost per month, while pre-test and post-test results showed an average knowledge increase of 33.1% in the areas of maintenance management, biosecurity, waste management, marketing, and food security. Thus, this programme has proven effective in enhancing farmers' capacity, producing a productive and environmentally friendly chicken farming model, and making a tangible contribution to the supply of animal protein in support of the SDGs, particularly zero hunger and good health and well-being.   Keywords: Empowerment of chicken farmers; Food security; Poultry biosecurity; Farm waste management; Digital marketing of livestock products

Abstract

ABSTRACT This community service program aims to enhance the competencies of persons with disabilities in Yogyakarta City through industry-based training and personal branding development. The initiative was motivated by the low labor force participation rate of people with disabilities, which reached only 40% in 2022, compounded by social stigma and limited skills. The partner organization, Himpunan Disabilitas Muhammadiyah (HIDIMU), played a crucial role in participant recruitment and facilitating partnerships with the hospitality industry. The implementation methods included socialization, needs assessment, training on service excellence and personal branding, utilization of a digital portfolio website, and mentoring for industry internships. Evaluation employed pre- and post-tests, questionnaires, field observations, and in-depth interviews with participants and stakeholders. Results indicated an average 35% improvement in participants’ knowledge scores, increased self-confidence, and expanded employment opportunities through industry collaboration and digital portfolio promotion. Socially, the program fostered greater awareness of the importance of inclusive employment practices. In conclusion, the program successfully improved both technical and social capacities of persons with disabilities, despite challenges related to digital infrastructure limitations and the need for training material adaptation. Keywords: Disability, Empowerment, Personal Branding, Service Excellence, Service industry

Abstract

ABSTRACT Education plays a strategic role in fostering social cohesion and global synergy through the strengthening of intercultural competencies, dialogue, and cross-community collaboration. However, in practice, challenges remain, including unequal access, low community participation, and the suboptimal integration of local cultural values in learning processes. These conditions may hinder the development of global literacy and sustainable community engagement. This community service program aims to enhance the synergy between education, culture, and society through a participatory approach involving schools, teachers, students, and the wider community. The intervention was implemented through joint needs identification, collaborative planning, culturally based activities (such as outreach sessions, knowledge-sharing forums, and teacher–student collaboration), teacher capacity building, and participatory evaluation. The results indicate an increase in teachers’ and participants’ understanding of global literacy and local cultural values, improved collaborative skills among teachers and university students, and higher active participation of the school community in learning activities. Measurable indicators of achievement include active engagement throughout all program sessions, the establishment of a sustainable collaboration model between the university and the partner school, and the development of a follow-up action plan for program continuation at At-Toyyibah School. This program produces outputs in the form of a locally based collaborative education model, enhanced teacher capacity in global literacy-based learning, and strengthened multi-stakeholder networks that support program sustainability. Overall, the activities contribute to strengthening the synergy between education, culture, and community in promoting inclusive and sustainable global citizenship.

Abstract

ABSTRACT This community service program was conducted through the Community Outreach Program (COP) in Rejosari Village, Mojokerto, East Java. The program aimed to support village development through integrated activities focusing on infrastructure revitalization, micro small and medium enterprise (MSME) empowerment, and socio-cultural education. Using a multinational service-learning approach, the program involved 26 students from six countries who collaborated with local stakeholders to address community needs through both physical and non-physical interventions. Key activities included the revitalization of community facilities, improvement of fishpond infrastructure, environmental arrangement, MSME rebranding, and socio-cultural and cultural exchange activities for children and community members. The results indicate improvements in the functionality of village infrastructure, increased readiness of local MSMEs to market their products, and enhanced community participation in social, educational, and cultural activities. The program also fostered cross-cultural understanding and collaboration between local residents and international participants. Although the implementation period was relatively short, the outcomes demonstrate that an integrated and multicultural community service model can contribute positively to local capacity building and community engagement. The COP Rejosari program offers a practical and replicable model for holistic community development in rural areas with similar characteristics.

Abstract

ABSTRACT The advancement of digital technology requires teachers to effectively integrate online learning media and social media into their instructional practices. However, at the primary school level, there are still limitations in digital literacy as well as a lack of integrated and sustainable training programs. This community service program (PKM) aims to empower teachers at SD Negeri Segoropuro, Pasuruan, by enhancing their competencies in utilizing digital media for teaching. The program was conducted from September to December 2025 through several stages, including needs assessment, practical training, mentoring, and evaluation. The training materials covered the use of Canva, Kinemaster, and Prezi. The results indicate a significant improvement in teachers’ understanding, skills, and confidence in integrating technology into the teaching and learning process. Practically, this program offers a needs-based training model that is applicable and easily replicable in other schools. The sustainability of the program is supported by the provision of modules, video tutorials, and continuous mentoring that encourage teachers’ independent learning. Overall, this program contributes to supporting a more adaptive and sustainable digital transformation in education.  Keywords: Digital learning media, Teacher empowerment, Digital transformation, Training, social media in education.
