Abstract

The development of the digital economy requires Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) to adapt to modern and efficient payment technologies. This project aims to assist MSMEs selling dodol nangka (jackfruit dodol) in implementing QRIS (Quick Response Code Indonesian Standard) as a cashless payment system. Through the application of QRIS, the transaction process becomes faster, safer and more practical for both consumers and businesses. The stages of the activity include socialising the use of QRIS, registering business accounts, and creating and installing QRIS codes at points of sale. The results of this activity show that the use of QRIS can increase transaction efficiency, reduce dependence on cash, and expand market access for dodol nangka MSMEs. Thus, the implementation of QRIS is a strategic step to encourage digital transformation and support the realisation of a cashless economy at the local level.

Abstract

The fundamental issue faced by Canteen MSMEs at Pujasera Merah UIN Bandung is weak financial management, characterized by inconsistent bookkeeping and the commingling of business and personal finances without formal budgeting. This community service project aims to enhance financial literacy and managerial skills among partners through the implementation of the Business Financial Management System (SIPEKU) Program. The implementation method employed a participatory learning approach, encompassing intensive training, simulations of Microsoft Excel-based digital toolkits, and continuous mentoring. The results indicate a significant increase in participant enthusiasm and digital proficiency, with business owners successfully operating budgeting templates via their smartphones. Based on a two-month monitoring period, a behavioral transformation was observed, shifting from initial resistance to active adoption. Participants reported positive outcomes, including cash flow transparency, accurate business measurement, and accelerated decision-making capabilities. This program concludes that simple digital budgeting systems are effective in fostering peace of mind and clarifying business growth visions for MSME entrepreneurs.

Abstract

The integration of artificial intelligence in English language teaching faces implementation challenges despite documented benefits, particularly in resource-limited Indonesian contexts where teachers' digital competence significantly influences adoption. This community service program addressed these gaps through comprehensive technology integration training focused on Google AI Studio for pronunciation instruction at SMPN 1 Jongkat, Mempawah Regency. The program employed a participatory approach combining needs analysis, hands-on training, collaborative workshops, and systematic evaluation involving 19 teachers. Post-training surveys using 5-point Likert scales assessed confidence levels across multiple dimensions of AI-assisted pronunciation instruction. Results demonstrated consistently high confidence levels across most dimensions, with means ranging from 4.26 to 4.74, particularly in using AI-generated speech for listening input and designing speaking activities. However, teachers showed notably lower confidence in self-assessment applications, revealing hesitation in comparing their own pronunciation with AI-generated models. The majority of participants prioritized ease of material development as the primary advantage. Analysis through the Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge framework indicated successful development of integrated technical and pedagogical competence, though limited articulation of specific implementation strategies suggests need for ongoing professional support. The training successfully established foundational confidence for AI integration while identifying areas requiring continued development to ensure sustainable implementation.

Abstract

Grassroots-based curriculum innovation through integration into local content subjects is crucial in the implementation of the Merdeka curriculum. As a pilot project madrasah, consistency in curriculum development that integrates research is essential. This training aims to describe teachers' perceptions and experiences in research-based implementation, their active involvement in designing solutions for integrating research into local content subjects, analyze the impact of teacher participation in the training process, and outline the real challenges teachers face in developing a research-based curriculum. The community service method uses PAR, which consists of the stages: to know, to understand, to plan, to act, and to change. The training participants consisted of the Head of Madrasah Education, the Principal, the Deputy Principal, and 25 teachers. Based on the training results, the teachers successfully developed a semester program as a mapping of research material, a research syllabus integrated with the love-based curriculum, a lesson plan, and student worksheets with different themes. The training participants, including teachers outside the pilot project, were very enthusiastic and produced a set of learning curricula and actively participated in overcoming obstacles in the process of developing research curriculum documents for local content subjects. In this way, grassroots curriculum innovation can produce a set of learning curricula compiled by teachers for the learning process in local content subjects.

Abstract

The purpose of this policy brief is to offer strategic suggestions for improving the Organisational Citizenship Behaviour (OCB) of nurses at RSUD Embung Fatimah Batam. This study's main goal is to investigate how coworker support affects OCB while taking job satisfaction and culture into account as mediating factors. 146 nurses participated in the study, which used structural equation modeling-partial least squares (SEM-PLS) as a quantitative method. The results show that OCB is greatly impacted by coworker support, both directly and indirectly through job satisfaction. Culture continues to be contextually relevant in creating a supportive work environment even when it does not exhibit a statistically significant effect. These results serve as the basis for hospital policy recommendations that aim to improve worker happiness, encourage extra-role behaviours that promote the quality of nursing services, and strengthen collegial work systems.

Abstract

Community health is a crucial aspect of improving quality of life, particularly through the role of Posyandu (Integrated Health Service Post) as a primary healthcare service at the village level. However, low public awareness of conducting independent health check-ups remains a significant challenge, especially in areas with limited facilities and digital literacy. This community engagement program aimed to enhance community health awareness through the implementation of an Internet of Things (IoT)-based Smart Health Mirror at Posyandu Cempaka RW 05, Pagelaran Village. The implementation methods included socialization activities, cadre training, technology deployment, and evaluation using a pre-test and post-test approach, followed by a three-month monitoring and mentoring phase. The results indicated an improvement in community health literacy, with the average score increasing from 62.4 (pre-test) to 81.7 (post-test), representing a 31% improvement. The implementation of the Smart Health Mirror also encouraged greater community participation in self-health monitoring and strengthened the function of Posyandu as a technology-supported health service center. Overall, this program contributed to improving the quality of community health services and has the potential to be replicated in other Posyandu as a model for technology-based community engagement initiatives.

Abstract

Sibalanga Village in Adiankoting District, North Tapanuli Regency, was among the areas most severely affected by a series of floods and landslides in late November 2025, which damaged settlements, agricultural land, and basic infrastructure while disrupting local economic activities. Most residents rely on cocoa, petai, and durian as their main commodities; therefore, plantation damage and post-disaster distribution disruptions significantly reduced household income and increased socio-economic and health vulnerabilities. This community engagement program, conducted under the Program Mahasiswa Berdampak, aimed to implement community-based disaster mitigation to reduce social, economic, and health risks while strengthening community resilience. A participatory approach was employed through environmental clean-up activities, tree planting, production of solid organic fertilizer, children’s trauma healing, cocoa processing training under the “TapaRes Kakao (Tapanuli Cocoa Resilience)” initiative, and the provision of appropriate technology tools to local partners, including LDPH and the PKK of Sibalanga Village. The program improved community understanding of flood and landslide mitigation, encouraged small-scale cocoa processing initiatives, strengthened local institutional networks, and fostered social recovery and resilience after the disaster. These findings indicate that integrating disaster mitigation, environmental management, and cocoa-based agro-industry innovation can serve as a model for empowering disaster-prone rural communities while supporting the achievement of SDG 8 and SDG 12.

Abstract

This community service program aimed to enhance the added value of roselle (Hibiscus sabdariffa L.) through the development of kombucha as a functional beverage while empowering the GAPOKWATAN Lumbung Rasa women farmers’ group in Pitra Village, Bali. Prior to the intervention, roselle utilization was limited to dried tea production with low economic value, constrained by limited knowledge, technology, and market access. The program introduced appropriate postharvest technologies, including training in Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) and Sanitation Standard Operating Procedures (SSOP), fermentation using Symbiotic Culture of Bacteria and Yeast (SCOBY), and product packaging and labeling. Members were also supported with fermentation and packaging equipment to standardize production. Pre- and post-program assessments revealed substantial improvements: hygienic processing increased from 30% to 80%, fermentation skills from 20% to 75%, packaging quality from 25% to 70%, technology adoption from 15% to 85%, and product diversification from 10% to 65%. Beyond technical capacity, the program fostered social empowerment, as women transitioned from supplementary laborers to key innovators and decision-makers in production and marketing. Economically, the group achieved routine production of 10–15 liters of kombucha per week, with an average selling price of IDR 20,000–25,000 per 250 ml bottle, resulting in a 40–50% increase in income compared to previous activities. Environmentally, the process is considered sustainable, as it relies on locally available raw materials without generating hazardous waste. Overall, this initiative demonstrates that roselle kombucha innovation can strengthen community empowerment, gender inclusivity, and local economic sustainability while contributing to functional food development.
