Abstract

The Physics Study Program, Faculty of Science and Engineering, Nusa Cendana University, conducted a Community Service (PkM) activity at the Department of Agriculture in Kupang City on September 24, 2024. The partners in this community service activity were the Department of Agriculture in Kupang City, Nusa Tenggara Timur Province. The partners faced a challenge in manually measuring the area of agricultural land, particularly in remote areas. Therefore, the PkM team provided training in agricultural land mapping using remote sensing to its partners. This training aims to enhance the capacity of its partners in mapping agricultural land using remote sensing and calculating the area of agricultural land based on the agricultural land map. The implementation method involves conveying basic concepts of remote sensing, map data collection, and direct practice in creating agricultural land maps. In this activity, the administrative map of Kupang City was taken from the Indonesian geospatial website. Then, participants collected agricultural land cover data using a GPS device. The remote sensing data used was Landsat 9 imagery from the USGS website. The Landsat 9 imagery was classified according to the type of agricultural land. The software was QGIS, SAGA, and Google Earth. The training results demonstrated an increase in the partners' knowledge and skills in making agricultural land maps using remote sensing. Partners were also able to calculate agricultural land area based on the agricultural land map. This training provided positive feedback, as partners will use the agricultural land map as a reference for regional planning in Kupang City.

Abstract

The Randu Alas Waste Management Site (TPS), located in the upstream area of the Opak Watershed, Sleman, has faced major challenges since the closure of the Piyungan Landfill, which forced the TPS to independently manage residual and organic waste. Residual waste continues to be burned, contributing to air pollution, while organic waste cannot be processed into compost due to limited facilities and human resources. In addition, non-customer households still burn waste, and customer households have not consistently implemented sorting, resulting in increased volumes of mixed waste entering the TPS. The use of open trash bins also increases the proportion of wet waste and allows some waste to be carried into waterways. This community service program aims to (1) develop more environmentally friendly waste management practices and (2) strengthen public education on sorting as a strategy to mitigate hydrometeorological disasters. The activities implemented include education on waste sorting, provision of separated and closed trash bins, campaigns on the dangers of burning waste, training on organic waste processing into compost, and training on managing residual waste using a mini incinerator. The results showed improved community knowledge, availability of sorting facilities in households, and initial compost production by residents. More than 50% of training participants have begun sorting waste at home, and the practice of burning waste in residential yards has been eliminated. The TPS has also adopted a new method for handling residual waste through the use of a mini incinerator. Overall, these activities enhance community capacity to reduce air pollution and support efforts to mitigate hydrometeorological disaster risks in upstream watershed areas. The next potential program is the development of a circular economy based on sorted waste.

Abstract

Community awareness regarding waste sorting and processing in RW 05, Lebak Siliwangi Subdistrict remains relatively low. This condition is primarily attributed to a top-down management approach and limited citizen involvement in planning and implementation processes. To foster active participation, a participatory and context-sensitive approach is essential. This activity aims to map the potential and challenges of waste management and facilitate the development of citizen-based programs. The methods employed include Focus Group Discussions (FGD), Geographic Information System (GIS)-based mapping, and classification into five management typologies based on a combination of educational status, sorting practices, and waste processing behavior. The findings reveal that out of 121 households, 67.8% have received education on waste management. However, only 25.6% practice waste sorting, and a mere 4.1% engage in waste processing. The majority (42.9%) of residents are educated but have yet to adopt sorting or processing practices, indicating the need for sustainable strategies to encourage independent waste management behaviors. This initiative produced several outputs, including thematic waste management maps, scientific publications, video documentation, and educational materials. These outputs support the ongoing efforts to achieve a Zero Waste Area status through enhanced community capacity and participation.

Abstract

This community engagement program aims to enhance public awareness and understanding of how cultural and spiritual values contribute to environmental action. The primary issue addressed is the marginalisation of religious, faith-based, and cultural perspectives within dominant environmental discourses, despite their long-standing role in shaping sustainable practices across communities. The program, titled “Sound of Semesta,” was conducted at the University of Sydney using a documentary screening of Semesta: Island of Faith, followed by a panel discussion. The implementation adopted the Planning, Organizing, Actuating, and Controlling (POAC) management framework to ensure effective delivery. The findings indicate that cultural and spiritual narratives significantly strengthen ecological awareness and encourage critical reflection on sustainability rooted in Indigenous and faith-based practices. Panel discussions highlighted that spiritual concepts, such as stewardship, adat law, and the sacredness of nature, serve as ethical drivers for collective environmental responsibility. The program also revealed that while local wisdom is essential, sustainable environmental practices require systemic support, including policy alignment, education, and cross-sector collaboration, to withstand external pressures. Overall, this initiative demonstrates that integrating cultural heritage and spiritual values into environmental education offers a meaningful and inclusive pathway for addressing contemporary ecological challenges and advancing sustainable development discourse. Future events may consider screening the documentary in full or presenting it in thematic segments across multiple sessions, complemented by post-screening discussions and short reflective essays submitted by participants to deepen critical engagement.
