Abstract

Equal access to justice for persons with disabilities requires more than formal recognition of equality before the law; it also requires accessible legal information, reasonable accommodation, effective communication, and adequate legal assistance. The Kolok community in Bengkala Village, Buleleng Regency, Bali, has distinctive linguistic and communication characteristics that necessitate an inclusive approach to legal education. This community service program aims to strengthen legal literacy regarding the Indonesian Criminal Code (KUHP), Criminal Procedure Law (KUHAP), the rights of persons with disabilities in judicial processes, and mechanisms for accessing legal aid. The program adopts a participatory and inclusive legal education approach through preliminary needs assessment, accessible legal counseling, interactive discussions, case-based learning, simulations of interactions with law enforcement officers, legal consultation, and pre-test and post-test evaluation. Communication methods and educational materials are adapted to the needs of the Kolok community to ensure meaningful participation and substantive equality in accessing legal information. The program introduces the Kolok Legal Access (KOLA) model, which integrates legal literacy, accessible communication, disability rights, community-based legal assistance, and collaboration among universities, village government, legal aid organizations, disability advocates, and relevant stakeholders. The expected outcomes include increased understanding of criminal law and procedural rights, improved awareness of disability rights and reasonable accommodation, greater knowledge of legal aid mechanisms, and strengthened community capacity to respond to legal problems. This initiative is expected to contribute to the development of a sustainable, inclusive, and community-based access-to-justice model for persons with disabilities in Indonesia.

Abstract

Cassava is one of the primary agricultural commodities in Sukasari Village, Rumpin, Indonesia, where small and medium enterprises (SMEs) predominantly rely on conventional open-sun drying methods. These practices are highly dependent on weather conditions, resulting in inconsistent drying quality, prolonged processing time, and reduced production efficiency. To address these challenges, an environmentally friendly greenhouse-based cassava drying system was designed as an alternative drying technology that utilizes solar energy while providing a more controlled drying environment. The purpose of this study is to develop the conceptual design of a greenhouse-based cassava drying system and introduce the proposed technology to local SMEs as a sustainable drying solution. The program employed a participatory approach involving field observations, needs assessment, conceptual engineering design, and technology dissemination through socialization and discussion sessions with cassava-processing SMEs. Stakeholder feedback was collected to evaluate the relevance and feasibility of the proposed design. The proposed design applies passive solar heating within a greenhouse structure to create a cleaner and more controlled drying environment. The socialization activities increased participants' understanding of sustainable drying technology and received positive responses regarding its potential to improve drying efficiency and support future productivity. The conceptual design provides a basis for prototype development and subsequent field implementation.

Abstract

Sweet corn (Zea mays saccharata) is a local food commodity that can be developed not only as a fresh food product but also as a raw material for value-added processed products. In Sidamukti Village, a portion of the corn produced is still marketed in fresh form, indicating that opportunities to increase its value through processing have not been optimally utilized. This Student Community Service Program (KKM) aimed to improve the community’s skills in processing sweet corn into hygienic corn milk while introducing a simple approach to assessing business feasibility. The activity was carried out through coordination and preparation, educational sessions, hands-on production practices, packaging assistance, and evaluation of production costs and revenue. One production batch used 5 kg of fresh sweet corn, which had an economic value of IDR 25,000 when sold without processing. The batch produced 16.25 liters of product, equivalent to 65 bottles with a volume of 250 ml each. The total production cost was IDR 291,500, consisting of variable costs of IDR 236,500 and fixed costs of IDR 55,000. At a selling price of IDR 8,000 per bottle, total revenue reached IDR 520,000, generating a net profit of IDR 228,500 with a profit margin of 43.9%. The Revenue-Cost Ratio (R/C Ratio) was 1.78, indicating that the revenue exceeded the production costs. The Break-Even Point (BEP) was calculated at 12.61 bottles or approximately 13 bottles, and compared with selling the fresh corn at a value of IDR 25,000, processing it into corn milk resulted in an increase in gross sales value of IDR 495,000. The results indicate that processing sweet corn into corn milk can serve as a feasible household-scale business diversification alternative, provided that product consistency, hygiene, packaging, and marketing are properly maintained.

Abstract

Mackerel viscera represent a fishery byproduct that has not yet been optimally utilized by the community of Selat Mendaun Village. Utilizing fish viscera to produce liquid organic fertilizer (POC) offers a potential alternative for managing fishery waste. This activity aimed to inform the community about using mackerel viscera for POC production and to gauge their response following the outreach session. A descriptive approach was employed, utilizing a participatory method that encompassed preparation, implementation, and evaluation phases. The outreach was conducted both in person at the village hall and through door-to-door visits. Evaluation was carried out using a Likert-scale questionnaire comprising 10 statements, completed by 10 participants. Data were analyzed descriptively based on total scores and the percentage of community responses. The results showed a total score of 349 out of a maximum of 400, representing 87.25%. The highest response percentage was observed for the "usefulness" indicator (92.5%), while the lowest was for the "knowledge" indicator (75%). These findings indicate a highly positive community response to the outreach activity regarding the use of mackerel viscera as a raw material for liquid organic fertilizer (POC).

Abstract

Developing a productive economy based on local potential is a crucial strategy for enhancing the self-reliance and well-being of rural communities. Cricket farming represents a promising venture, supported by relatively simple cultivation techniques, affordable capital requirements, and consistently high market demand. This community service initiative was conducted with a Cricket Farmers Group—an MSME entity comprising 13 members located in Dusun Desa, Margaharja Village, Sukadana District, Ciamis Regency. The objective was to address challenges faced by the partners by improving production quality and implementing digital marketing strategies to boost the farmers' income. The partner group served as both the primary subject and an active collaborator throughout the entire service cycle, spanning problem identification, planning, outreach, implementation, technology and innovation adoption, mentoring, evaluation, and ensuring program sustainability. The results demonstrate that the application of technology and innovation positively impacted the group's production quality and productivity. A multipurpose chopper facilitated faster and easier feed preparation; electric sprayers improved cage hygiene and sanitation; green mesh netting protected the crickets from pests and predators; egg trays provided shelter and activity space; and STC-3028 thermostat/hygrostat units helped regulate cage temperature and humidity. Regarding digital marketing, the program successfully enhanced the partners' capacity to establish and expand digital product marketing, evidenced by the creation of a distinct business identity (branding). In conclusion, integrating production technology with digital marketing strategies effectively improved business efficiency, production capacity, and marketing potential.

Abstract

The limited availability of digital literacy media and contextual reading materials based on local wisdom poses a challenge to reading literacy in elementary schools. Furthermore, teachers' competency in developing digital learning media still needs to be strengthened so that technology can be optimally utilized in the learning process. This community service activity aims to increase teachers' capacity in developing and implementing digital flipbooks of folk tales as a reading literacy medium based on local wisdom. The activity was carried out at SDN Padahanten I, Majalengka Regency, using a participatory and collaborative approach based on the needs of partners. The implementation method included socialization and needs mapping, training in digital flipbook development, media application in learning, mentoring and evaluation, and strengthening program sustainability. Through a learning-by-doing approach, teachers were directly involved in selecting and adapting folk tales, compiling scripts, selecting illustrations, and packaging reading materials into digital format. The activity results in the availability of seven digital flipbooks of digital literacy media based on folk tales that integrate text, visual illustrations, digital technology, and local wisdom values. This activity also provided teachers with practical experience in developing learning media and implementing them through shared reading activities, independent reading, and reading comprehension discussions. This program has the potential to strengthen teachers' capacity to independently develop media, enrich contextual learning resources, and support the preservation of local culture through reading literacy. Therefore, mentoring the development of digital flipbooks can be an alternative teacher empowerment strategy to support contextual and sustainable literacy learning innovations.

Abstract

Efforts to improve family food security are one way in line with Indonesia's commitment to achieving the 17 targets in the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Efforts made to create affordable and accessible family food security include utilizing yard space. However, currently, many households only have limited land. To overcome this limitation, a concept is needed that can overcome this obstacle, one of which is the use of economical floating raft aquaponics techniques. This technique can help provide food sources for families in the form of fish and vegetables in one location simultaneously, using simple materials and tools available in the village. The results of the study show that the management of the floating raft aquaponics system and maintenance are highly dependent on the balance between fish feed and waste and the ability of plants to absorb nutrients from waste leftover fish feed and fish waste. If the management and maintenance of floating raft aquaponics systems are not implemented properly, it will cause failure to fast and decrease water quality due to the accumulation of waste from fish waste and leftover feed.
