Abstract

Gout arthritis is a non-communicable disease caused by hyperuricemia, with increasing prevalence due to aging, lifestyle changes, and limited public knowledge on prevention and early detection. This activity aimed to improve community knowledge and conduct uric acid screening to support early prevention in Garut City District. Methods included interactive health education, uric acid testing using the Easy Touch GCU device, and pre-test and post-test evaluation among 30 participants. Results showed that 23,3% had high uric acid levels and 33,3% had a history of gout arthritis. Knowledge significantly improved after the intervention, with good knowledge increasing from 20% to 80%. The Wilcoxon test indicated a significant difference before and after education (p < 0,05). This activity effectively improved community awareness and supports preventive and promotive efforts for gout arthritis through education and early detection.

Abstract

Household organic waste management is one of the main environmental challenges in Indonesia, especially in rural areas with limited access to formal waste processing facilities. This community service activity was carried out in Garut on April 24, 2026, with the aim of increasing public understanding and skills in processing household organic waste into compost. The method used was a workshop combining interactive lectures and hands-on practice demonstrations using a simple composter drum. Participants were members of the local community, primarily housewives. The results showed that participants were highly enthusiastic and gained new knowledge about composting principles, organic waste sorting, and the application of compost as organic fertilizer for home gardens. 90,91% of participants reported that the activity was very beneficial and expressed readiness to independently practice composting at home. Through this activity, it is expected that the community will be able to manage organic waste sustainably, reduce dependence on chemical fertilizers, and minimize environmental pollution.

Abstract

Over time, plastic waste has become one of the most dangerous environmental pollutants because it is difficult to decompose and can even last for more than 1,000 years. The goal of this training is to provide a demonstration of technology that is easily applicable in everyday life, so that the community is better educated and motivated to actively participate. The training method is descriptive, targeting the village/sub-district community where the Community Service Program (KKN) is being implemented, particularly housewives, teenagers, and students who play an active role in household waste management habits. The training also opens up opportunities to utilize waste as a material with economic value. Inorganic waste such as plastic bottles, paper, and cans is starting to be viewed not only as waste but also as a resource that can be recycled into recycled products. Some participants are even interested in developing creative ideas, such as making crafts from used plastic or selling recyclable items to waste banks. Through appropriate education, it is hoped that the community will be able to manage waste safely and in accordance with health protocols.
