Abstract

Frailty, a significant geriatric syndrome, is a major complication of diabetes and is associated with adverse health outcomes. Indonesia, with its rapidly aging population, faces a substantial burden from these conditions. Community-based screening is essential for early detection and intervention. A community engagement program was conducted in Gunung Anyar District, Surabaya, involving 189 elderly participants. Simultaneous screenings for diabetes (via random blood glucose test) and frailty (using the validated FRAIL questionnaire) were performed. The study revealed a high dual burden of disease: 42.0% of participants had blood glucose levels indicative of diabetes, while 11.6% were classified as frail and 39.7% as pre-frail. About 30% of them were both unfit and poor glycemic control. This program demonstrates a high prevalence of diabetes and frailty among community-dwelling older adults in Surabaya, underscoring the urgent need for integrated geriatric care. The successful implementation of dual screening highlights the feasibility of incorporating these measures into primary care and the critical role of training community health workers to enable sustainable, early detection and management strategies.

Abstract

Waste management in Indonesia is still dominated by open burning and landfilling, causing environmental and health problems. In Jetak Village, Getasan District, Semarang Regency, located in the rural highlands of Mount Merbabu, organic waste dominates household waste streams. Although a TPS3R facility has existed since 2022, its operation remains suboptimal due to low community participation and odor issues. This condition highlights the urgent need for innovative, community-based solutions. Black Soldier Fly (BSF, Hermetia illucens) farming offers an effective alternative, capable of reducing organic waste by 50–60% while producing valuable by-products. This community service program targeted village officials, farmer groups, women’s groups, youth, and TPS3R managers. Activities included awareness sessions on circular economy, training in BSF cultivation, field demonstrations using appropriate technology, digital marketing workshops, and operational assistance at TPS3R. Impact was assessed through participant questionnaires and scenario modeling of household-level BSF adoption based on waste generation data from SIPSN (2025) and BPS (2025). Twenty-five participants engaged actively throughout the program. Evaluation showed 100% agreement that BSF is effective for organic waste management, with 89% willing to adopt it at home. Products such as fresh and dried larvae and frass were successfully introduced, with estimated market value up to IDR 52,000/kg. Scenario analysis indicated potential reductions of 89–268 tons of organic waste annually and mitigation of 2.6–7.8 tons CO₂e, depending on adoption rates. The program proved that BSF technology is feasible, socially acceptable with proper education, and economically promising. It strengthened local waste management capacity, supported income generation, and contributed to circular economy transition while aligning with SDG 12 and Indonesia’s low-carbon development goals.

Abstract

Ma Utik MSME, located in Cilembu Village, Sumedang Regency, is one of the Cilembu sweet potato processing businesses that has great potential in supporting the village economy. However, low digital literacy, manual business management systems, limited market distribution, and a lack of product innovation are obstacles to increasing competitiveness amid increasingly fierce competition. This community service program aims to carry out digital transformation through the application of big data-based marketing strategies to strengthen management capacity and expand the market reach of MSMEs. The implementation method is carried out participatively through socialization, digital literacy and business management training, implementation of digital technology (Google Analytics, social media insights, and simple CRM), as well as intensive mentoring and periodic evaluations. The results of the activities showed a significant increase in digital literacy and business management, with participants' comprehension scores reaching 88-90% of the maximum score, particularly in the areas of digital financial recording, stock management, and business planning. In the field of marketing, there was a threefold increase in the consistency of social media posts, a 150% increase in engagement, and the use of marketplaces that generated an average of ten transactions per month. Partners also succeeded in building a customer database with a minimum of 50 active entries used for retargeting promotions, thereby strengthening customer retention. Product and packaging innovations were also produced, in the form of two new variants and three packaging designs with longer durability, which increased the selling value and branding of local products. The socio-economic impact can be seen from the 60% increase in average monthly income, the expansion of market reach from local to regional, and the multiplier effect through the adoption of digitalization by other MSMEs around Cilembu Village. In conclusion, this program successfully demonstrates that big data-based digital transformation can improve management efficiency, expand markets, and drive product innovation, thereby strengthening the competitiveness of MSMEs while supporting sustainable village economic development.

Abstract

Environmentally friendly agriculture is an urgent necessity amid increasing soil degradation and farmers' dependence on chemical fertilizers, which incur high costs and reduce land quality. This condition also occurs in the Hikmah Farmer Group in Majalengka, where the majority of farmers still rely entirely on chemical fertilizers, while knowledge and skills regarding organic and biological fertilizers are still very limited. This Community Service Program (PKM) aims to increase farmers' capacity to produce and utilize organic and biological fertilizers, thereby reducing their dependence on chemical fertilizers and supporting the realization of sustainable agriculture. The implementation methods included counseling on the concept of environmentally friendly agriculture, training in the production of solid and liquid organic fertilizers, as well as biological fertilizers based on local microorganisms, and direct assistance in their application on agricultural land. The results of the activities showed a significant increase in farmers' knowledge and skills, with more than 70% of group members able to produce organic fertilizers independently, and more than 60% successfully applying biological fertilizers on their land. In addition, the use of chemical fertilizers can be reduced by 20-30% without reducing crop yields, while improving soil fertility and increasing soil biota activity. Thus, this program not only has a positive impact on farmers' economic efficiency, but also contributes ecologically to the sustainability of environmentally friendly agriculture. Future recommendations include strengthening institutional support and replicating the program among other farmer groups in Majalengka to ensure its benefits can be sustained and expanded.

Abstract

The Farming in Sigerongan village is highly intensive, potentially leading to chemical residues such as pesticides and fertilizers, which pose a problem for the biological, physical, and chemical balance of the soil and the environment. Sigerongan village, with its "Sumber Hidup" Farmers Group, is a popular destination for local tourism, necessitating the development of a farming system that is both economically valuable and environmentally friendly. Shallot farming offers an alternative for developing agrotourism through the use of local resources such as rice mulch and organic fertilizer. Researchers have collected several superior shallot varieties and utilized mulch and manure to increase the productivity of small plots. To achieve this goal, direct extension activities and demonstration plots (action research) have been conducted with farmers. The training method used is adult education (POD) using participatory techniques. These activities aim to improve the skills and knowledge of partner farmers. The results of the activity showed that the development of shallot agrotourism based on local resources has been carried out in the "Sumber Hidup" farmer group in Sigerongan village. Partner farmers have been very responsive to the community service activities. The technological transformation process of using rice straw mulch and cow manure in shallot cultivation has been implemented. Partner farmers are expected to experience behavioral changes in knowledge, skills, and attitudes to develop shallot agrotourism. 3. The chemical-free shallot cultivation technique that has been developed has the potential to promote agrotourism in Sigerongan village.

Abstract

Stunting remains a significant public health problem in Indonesia, with long-term consequences for child development and human capital quality. One of the underlying causes is the low intake of animal-source protein, which plays a crucial role in supporting children’s growth and cognitive development. This community service program aimed to prevent stunting by providing nutrition education and distributing eggs as an affordable, accessible, and nutrient-dense source of animal protein. The method applied was Participatory Action Research (PAR), consisting of stages such as socialization, nutrition education, egg distribution to families with toddlers, and monitoring of both egg consumption and parental nutrition knowledge. The results indicated an improvement in parental understanding of the importance of animal protein, an increase in the frequency of egg consumption among toddlers, and active involvement of local health cadres in nutrition monitoring. The discussion links local findings with recent evidence highlighting the role of eggs in improving child nutrition, while emphasizing that sustained interventions are needed for significant impacts on linear growth. This program contributes to the national target of stunting reduction and strengthens household nutrition resilience in the partner village.

Abstract

Strengthening teacher capacity in 3T areas requires an approach that goes beyond conventional pedagogical training by integrating entrepreneurial competencies, differentiated learning, and leveraging local potential. This study presents a teacherpreneur training model for elementary/middle school/community learning center teachers on Harapan Island, Thousand Islands, which is operationalized through a convergent mixed-methods design. The design incorporates attendance measurement, multi-component evaluation scores, and qualitative findings from observations and structured interviews. Field data shows 22 participants from various schools, an attendance rate of 83%, and a distribution of quiz, case study, and practice scores indicating substantial competency achievement in the dimensions of creativity, utilization of local potential, partnership networks, and educational entrepreneurship practices. The integration of quantitative and qualitative findings confirms the relevance of the training to the island context, which faces limitations in infrastructure, technology access, and professional development opportunities. The discussion links the findings to current literature on teacherpreneurial competence, partnership management, differentiated instruction, and digital-based service-learning practices. This study offers theoretical implications for the construction of teacherpreneur competencies and practical implications for program replication in other 3T regions. The recommendations emphasize strengthening post-training mentoring, orchestrating local networks, and digital portfolio-based reporting for sustainable impact.
