Abstract

Population growth has led to a significant increase in solid waste generation. In Semarang City, approximately 1,110 tons of waste are produced daily. One of the waste management initiatives implemented by the Environmental Agency is the waste bank program. However, this program has not yet been implemented in all areas. In Tlogosari Kulon Subdistrict, for example, no active waste bank group currently operates the program, despite the area being a densely populated residential zone and a flood-prone area. This condition contributes to environmental pollution, unpleasant odors, and potential disease transmission. Through this community service program, it is expected that residents of Kampung Pancasila Tlogosari Kulon will not only gain knowledge but also develop practical skills to manage household waste independently. The methods applied include interactive educational approaches and hands-on practice. The results indicate a significant increase in participants’ average level of understanding, from 42% at the initial stage to 86% after the program. This improvement was driven by direct practical activities, including waste segregation, eco-enzyme production, biopore infiltration holes, and composting. Overall, the program successfully enhanced participants’ environmental awareness, enthusiasm, and active involvement in sustainable household waste management.

Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) oriented toward export markets are required to possess well-structured financial administration systems and professional product promotion media. However, Iluh Craft MSME has faced challenges in the form of non-standardized financial recordkeeping and limited digital marketing tools, which potentially hinder operational efficiency and export readiness. This community service activity aimed to design and implement a financial administration system and a digital product catalog to enhance business management orderliness and marketing preparedness at Iluh Craft MSME. The implementation employed a descriptive–participatory approach through interviews, observations, documentation, system design, phased implementation, and joint evaluation with the partner. The results demonstrated a reduction in financial recording errors from approximately ±20% to less than 5%, an improvement in administrative time efficiency of up to ±40%, and fully organized document archiving reaching 100%. In addition, a bilingual digital product catalog was successfully developed and utilized as a promotional medium and sales reference. It can be concluded that the implementation of a structured financial administration system and a digital product catalog has a significant positive impact on operational efficiency, business professionalism, and the sustainable export readiness of Iluh Craft MSME.

Abstract

The development of the Kampung Nelayan Merah Putih project in the coastal area of Centra Java faces significant challenges, including land subsidence, tidal flooding, and highly saline environmental conditions that may reduce infrastructure durability. These conditions require competent construction supervision to ensure project quality, schedule, and cost performance. This Community Service Program aimed to enhance the technical and managerial competencies of personnel from the Semarang Fishing Port Center (BBPI) through technical guidance on construction supervision. The program consisted of three stages: dissemination of construction quality management principles, training on field inspection methods and technical administration, and stakeholder coordination to harmonize supervision practices. Program effectiveness was evaluated using pre-test and post-test assessments involving 22 participants who completed 18 questions. The results demonstrated a substantial improvement in participants' knowledge, with the mean score increasing from 59.77 (62.9% of the maximum score) to 81.59 (85.9%), representing a gain of 21.82 points (36.5%). The minimum score increased from 50 to 70, and no participant scored below 70 in the post-test. The training also strengthened participants' shared understanding of quality control, contract administration, field inspection, and the achievement of the project's triple constraints. These findings indicate that the technical guidance effectively improved construction supervision competencies and contributed to more professional, accountable, and sustainable management of coastal infrastructure projects.

Abstract

This literature review examines the progress, challenges, and opportunities in adopting sustainable construction practices in Nigeria over the past two decades. Significant advancements have been made, particularly in the use of energy-efficient materials and Building Information Modeling (BIM), which have improved project efficiency and sustainability. Policy frameworks have evolved to support these technological innovations, but widespread adoption of sustainable practices is still hindered by economic constraints, cultural resistance, and regulatory gaps. Economic challenges, especially the high costs of sustainable technologies, are major obstacles, worsened by limited financial incentives and economic instability. Cultural factors, such as a preference for traditional construction methods, and inconsistent enforcement of building codes further complicate efforts to promote sustainability. Despite these barriers, there is growing awareness of the need to integrate sustainability into the construction sector, driven by both global environmental concerns and local development needs. The review also highlights its limitations, including a reliance on published academic literature, which may not fully capture recent industry trends or local realities. Excluding grey literature and non-English publications may omit important regional perspectives. The review recommends future research on detailed economic analyses of sustainable technologies, exploring the integration of traditional and modern practices, and comparative studies with similar countries.

Abstract

Technical assistance for installing house connections (SR) in Kopeng Village, Getasan District, Semarang Regency, faces a number of challenges and opportunities that can be analyzed from several aspects. Kopeng Village is an area where most of the population depends on clean water from natural sources. However, direct access to clean water through the distribution network is still limited in some areas. The research methods used include: the research approach used in this research is qualitative and quantitative, data collection techniques to obtain accurate and relevant data, data analysis techniques, data evaluation, and validation. The research results were evaluated by comparing findings in the field with literature related to clean water management and local government policies. Thus, this program not only improves the quality of life of residents but also builds independence in managing water resources. However, there are several obstacles that still need to be considered, such as budget limitations in reaching more homes and the need for ongoing education so that people can independently maintain their home connections. Therefore, program sustainability is an important factor in ensuring long-term benefits from this activity.

Abstract

The implementation of Occupational Safety and Health (OSH) in small-scale construction projects remains a serious challenge, particularly in Semarang City. Workers in this sector generally do not have an adequate understanding of the importance of using Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) in supporting occupational safety. This community service activity aims to provide direct training and mentoring to small-scale construction workers to understand and apply OSH in their daily work activities. The implementation method involves an initial survey through interviews and field observations, followed by participatory training and mentoring in the practice of using PPE. The results of the activity show that after the training, workers' understanding and compliance with the use of PPE increased from 50% to 80%. However, some workers still require further mentoring to get used to implementing OSH consistently. This program is felt to have a positive impact in raising awareness that occupational safety is not just a formal obligation. Still, a basic need that protects oneself, is reflected in the results of the post-test questionnaire that 90% of participants expressed their desire to comply with and implement the OSH program.
