Abstract

Consumption of sweetened beverages contributes to increased blood glucose levels that lead to the risk of pre-diabetes and type II diabetes mellitus. Fasting blood sugar examination is an early screening tool to detect hidden metabolic disorders and educate the public about the importance of controlling sugar consumption. The examination was conducted through capillary blood sampling and point-of-care testing (POCT) analysis of 91 adult participants. Education was delivered in the form of a leaflet emphasizing the impact of sweetened beverage consumption on glucose regulation and the risk of insulin resistance. The results were classified into three categories: normal, pre-diabetes, and diabetes. The majority of participants (86.8%) were in the normoglycemic category. As many as 9.9% were classified as pre-diabetes and 3.3% were in the diabetes category. The average fasting blood sugar of the participants was 89.5 ± 20.1 mg/dL. These results emphasize the need for counseling regarding limiting the consumption of sweetened beverages to maintain stable blood glucose. Fasting blood sugar examination accompanied by education about sweetened beverages contributes to early detection of the risk of glucose disorders. Interventions based on examination results have the potential to increase awareness of fluid consumption patterns and encourage healthier lifestyle changes.

Abstract

Uric acid is the final product of purine metabolism, which can increase due to high purine intake or impaired renal excretion. Accumulation of uric acid in the body is at risk of causing joint inflammation and other metabolic disorders. Early detection and dietary education are strategic steps to prevent complications of hyperuricemia. This activity uses the Plan-Do-Check-Act (PDCA) approach by examining uric acid levels using POCT and education on managing purine consumption. The examination was carried out on 62 adult participants. Educational leaflets were delivered directly and individually to each participant. All participants had uric acid levels in the normal range (median 4.2 mg/dL), with the lowest value of 3.5 mg/dL and the highest 6.5 mg/dL. Most participants were women and were in the middle to elderly age group. Although no cases of hyperuricemia were identified, preventive education remains essential to maintain uric acid levels within optimal ranges and reduce future metabolic risks. Lifestyle interventions focusing on diet and hydration are critical for sustainable uric acid control and long-term health outcomes. Keywords: Uric Acid, Purine, Hyperuricemia, Diet, Nutrition Education

Abstract

Community Service activities are a real form of students' social concern for their surroundings. This activity was carried out in Kampung Enam with the aim of sharing knowledge and skills with the community and students about how to turn seashell waste into handmade crafts that can be sold. We used a face-to-face approach through socialization and training, one of which was making wall decorations in the shape of flowers. Besides involving the local people, students also took part in this activity so they could develop economic independence. The results showed that seashell waste has promising potential, both economically and socially, especially if developed into small environmentally friendly businesses. Hopefully, activities like this can continue and become an example of how to develop local crafts and increase the income of the people around Kampung Enam, Tarakan.

Abstract

The UNS Community Service Program (KKN) Batch 68 was conducted from July to August 2025 in Jaten Village, Karanganyar Regency, Central Java. This program focused on educating the community about the utilization of organic waste, particularly dragon fruit (Hylocereus spp.) peel, which is generally underutilized. Dragon fruit peel has the potential to be developed into functional food products as it contains fiber, vitamins, and pectin. Through the “Dragon Fruit Peel Waste Management into Sauce” workshop, participants were provided with knowledge and skills to process organic waste into value-added products while supporting household food security. The implementation methods included counseling, demonstrations, and hands-on practice. The results showed an increase in community understanding of food waste management, improved skills in processing dragon fruit peel into sauce, and the establishment of communication networks among village cadres for program sustainability. This innovation also holds potential to be developed into micro-enterprises in the healthy food sector.

Abstract

Used cooking oil is a household waste that may pollute the environment and harm human health if disposed of or reused improperly. This community service program aimed to provide a waste management solution while enhancing the community’s economic skills through training on producing aromatherapy candles from used cooking oil. The implementation method included awareness sessions on the hazards of used cooking oil, technical training using a learning by doing approach, and assistance in production and marketing. A total of 30 participants from the Family Welfare Movement (PKK) took part in the program. The results indicated improved knowledge and skills, the production of approximately 50 aromatherapy candles with lavender, rose, and vanilla scents, and the establishment of a community group committed to continuing independent production. The program contributed positively to the environment by reducing around 15 liters of waste oil per month and created new entrepreneurial opportunities for residents. Therefore, this initiative can serve as a sustainable community empowerment model based on circular economy principles.

Abstract

The Bright Training Program is a community service activity designed to improve the research and entrepreneurial capacity of Indonesian students who are members of the Indonesian Student Association (PPI) in Johor Bahru, Malaysia. The main problems faced by participants include limited understanding of research methodology, low ability to write systematic scientific papers, and suboptimal skills in developing and marketing digital-based businesses. To address these issues, this program is implemented using a participatory approach through several stages: identifying participant needs, joint planning, practice-based training (hands-on training), and ongoing mentoring. The results of the activity show a significant increase in participant skills, particularly in preparing research proposals, developing more structured business plans, and utilizing digital media as an effective marketing tool. Furthermore, this program also encourages changes in participants' mindsets to become more critical, innovative, adaptive, and collaborative in facing academic and entrepreneurial challenges. Furthermore, this activity also helps give rise to various group initiatives and strengthens the active role of students as agents of change in the community.

Abstract

Abstract and The Community Service Program (PKM) implemented by lecturers from the Indonesian State Maritime Polytechnic in partnership with the Karang Taruna Youth Association of RW 03, Genuk Village, Semarang Regency, aims to strengthen the capacity of youth organizations to improve social welfare. As a forum for the younger generation, Karang Taruna often faces issues related to governance, low social participation, and limited productive skills. The PKM implementation method employs a problem-based approach through the stages of survey, situation analysis, solution formulation, training, and evaluation. Key activities include training in organizational governance, character building through moral values, Sinoman, and Pranoto Coro, as well as vocational skills in electric welding. The results of the activities showed significant improvements across various aspects: organizational governance increased from 30% to 85%, social awareness of mutual cooperation rose from 40% to 90%, pranoto coro skills reached 70%, electrical welding skills reached 75%, active member participation rose from 25% to 80%, and initiatives for productive activities increased from 5% to 65%. These findings confirm that the PKM program serves not only as a knowledge transfer initiative but also as a catalyst for social and economic change. The provision of technical skills opens opportunities for productive enterprises, while the reinforcement of cultural values strengthens social solidarity. Thus, this PKM program contributes to strengthening the strategic role of Karang Taruna as a driving force for social development, while also underscoring the importance of collaboration between higher education institutions and the community in advancing Indonesia’s vision for 2045.

Abstract

Tatah Mesjid Village has the potential for wetland biological resources in the form of various types of plants that can be used as natural dyes; however, their use in developing value-added products remains limited. Sasirangan, a traditional textile from South Kalimantan, also requires innovation to remain relevant, environmentally friendly, and competitive in the market. This community service program aims to improve the knowledge and skills of the Tatah Mesjid community in developing natural-dye ecoprint sasirangan scarves through the SCOPTAS (Scarf Sasirangan Ecoprint Tatah Mesjid) program. The implementation method consisted of socialization, training, and evaluation stages. Training activities were conducted through material presentations and hands-on practice, covering fabric preparation, utilization of local plants as natural dye sources, motif arrangement, and the steaming process. Evaluation was carried out using a one-group pre-test–post-test design. The results showed an increase in participants’ average knowledge scores from 82.2 in the pre-test to 90.6 in the post-test. In addition, participants were able to produce ecoprint sasirangan scarves with diverse natural motifs and aesthetic value.

Abstract

Higher education institutions are increasingly expected to provide tangible solutions to social dynamics through the integration of curricula with Service-Learning (S-L) programs. This article documents the integration of a Cinematography course with the S-L concept to address the low level of environmental health literacy in Dusun Kendal, Semarang Regency. Three major environmental health issues were identified in the area: waste burning, pesticide spraying without the use of personal protective equipment (PPE), and the presence of flies caused by cattle sheds located close to residential areas. Using a three-day live-in method and a participatory video approach, 42 Visual Communication Design students from Satya Wacana Christian University collaborated with local residents to produce educational media. The outcomes of this program consisted of four educational videos addressing issues of waste management, fly pest control, and the use of PPE for farmers. The findings indicate that participatory video is effective as an educational instrument due to its sociocultural proximity to local audiences. In addition to benefiting the community, the program successfully transformed students’ paradigms from merely aesthetic content creators into social communicators who possess empathy and moral responsibility toward humanitarian issues.
