Abstract

The dynamics of economic development in Surabaya often leave informal workers such as daily laborers, motorcycle taxi drivers, and scavengers with limited access to food due to income instability and high living costs. The Panjang Jiwo area was chosen due to its representative socio-economic heterogeneity for local philanthropic initiatives. The program aims to optimize community participation in food sharing, reduce the economic burden on informal workers, and establish a replicable, structured social care model. The method uses an Asset-Based Community Development (ABCD) approach by mapping local assets such as food stalls, youth communities, and transparent donations, followed by the regular and humane distribution of hygienic lunch boxes at priority points. Results show increased donation participation, fulfillment of daily nutritional needs, a 15-20% reduction in recipient expenditure, and strengthening of bridging social capital that fosters solidarity between different economic groups.

Abstract

The Impactful Real Lecture Program (KUKERTA) of the University of Riau Building Villages in 2026 implemented a community empowerment activity in Olak Village through the introduction and demonstration of BUDIDALON (Fish Cultivation in Gallons). The activity aimed to introduce a simple, cost-effective, and environmentally friendly cultivation system that combines catfish cultivation with hydroponic water spinach using used gallon containers. The activity was conducted on July 11, 2026, at Pondokan RT 1 RK 3, Olak Village, through theoretical socialization, technical demonstrations, maintenance training, and interactive discussions. Participants demonstrated engagement and understanding during the discussion and were able to follow the demonstration of gallon preparation, media installation, fish stocking, plant planting, and maintenance. However, no quantitative pre-test or post-test assessment was conducted to measure changes in knowledge or skills. The activity introduced BUDIDALON as a potentially useful household-scale cultivation model for utilizing limited space and reusing used plastic containers. Further implementation with regular mentoring and measurable evaluation of fish growth, plant yields, water use, production costs, and household economic outcomes is needed to assess its sustainability and potential contribution to household food security

Abstract

Low environmental awareness among children, particularly regarding waste management, remains a challenge in creating a clean and sustainable environment at the village level. Therefore, this community service activity aims to optimize the literacy class as an educational medium to improve children's knowledge and environmental awareness in Lubuk Gung Village through learning activities about waste classification and waste segregation. The target participants were elementary school-aged children who attended the village literacy class. The results of the activity indicated an improvement in participants' understanding of waste classification, the importance of maintaining environmental cleanliness, and appropriate waste segregation practices. In addition, the participants demonstrated high enthusiasm throughout the learning process and began to develop the habit of disposing of and sorting waste according to its type. The optimization of the literacy class not only served as a means of improving children's literacy skills but also proved to be an effective medium for instilling environmental awareness and responsible waste management behavior from an early age. Thus, this activity is expected to foster sustainable environmentally friendly behavior and support the development of a community that is more concerned with proper waste management.

Abstract

Waste has become an ongoing problem in Lubuk Gung Village, Semidang Gumay Subdistrict, largely due to the community's habit of open waste burning, which produces thick smoke and negatively affects both health and the surrounding environment. In response to this condition, students of KKN 177 Period 108 carried out two main activities as part of waste management efforts, namely the implementation of a low-smoke waste burning tool and the installation of an information banner explaining the decomposition time of various types of waste along with instructions on how to build the low-smoke burning tool. The activity began with the construction of a simple burning device designed to reduce the amount of smoke produced during waste burning, followed by the installation of banners in strategic locations within the village so that residents could easily access information on the decomposition time of organic and inorganic waste, as well as understand how to use the low-smoke burning tool independently. This activity is expected to reduce the negative impact of conventional waste burning and provide the community with practical knowledge on more environmentally friendly waste management.

Abstract

Rapid digital transformation has intensified the need for elementary schools to strengthen students’ literacy, numeracy, and character through meaningful technology-supported learning. This community service program aimed to improve these competencies through creative and innovative technology-based learning assistance. A participatory educational assistance design with a mixed-methods evaluative approach and a one-group pretest-posttest design was employed. The participants were 30 elementary school students selected through criterion-based participation at a partner school in Pangkalan Balai, South Sumatra, Indonesia. Data were collected using literacy and numeracy assessments, a character observation rubric, structured observation sheets, participant response questionnaires, and facilitator field notes. Quantitative data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, normalized gain, Shapiro-Wilk tests, paired-samples t-tests, and Cohen’s d in IBM SPSS Statistics 25, while qualitative data were analyzed thematically. The results showed significant improvements in literacy, numeracy, and character, with all posttest scores exceeding pretest scores and p < .001. Numeracy showed the largest mean gain and effect size. Classroom observations also indicated stronger participation, collaboration, responsibility, and responsible technology use. The program therefore demonstrated the potential of integrated technology-based assistance to support students’ holistic development.

Abstract

Inorganic waste remains a persistent environmental problem that requires sustainable management, while local arts such as wayang offer potential as a medium connecting environmental issues with cultural values. This study describes the implementation of the “Practical Workshop on Making Wayang from Waste as an Alternative for Processing Inorganic Waste” activity, conducted by the KKN 170 UNS team in Kampung Sipek, Plaosan Subdistrict, Magetan Regency, involving children and residents in transforming inorganic waste into wayang figures. This research employed a qualitative descriptive approach using a case study method. Data were collected through participatory observation, interviews with children, and documentation of the wayang-making process, then analyzed interactively through data reduction, data display, and drawing conclusions. The results show that inorganic waste materials can be transformed into aesthetically valuable wayang artworks, culminating in the “Wayang-wayang Wirang” performance held on Indonesian Independence Day. The activity fostered children’s creativity, strengthened the community’s environmental awareness, and demonstrated that waste management can be integrated with cultural education. These findings suggest that art-based waste management can serve as an alternative model for environmental education and community empowerment.

Abstract

Ombo Village, Sirenja District, Donggala Regency, is an area with significant natural resource potential, particularly in the fisheries and plantation sectors. Various commodities such as sea fish, seaweed, coconut, banana, cassava, and cassava are available and have the potential to be developed into economically valuable food products. However, some of these products are still marketed as raw materials, so the added value obtained by the community is relatively limited. Other problems include limited knowledge and skills in food processing technology, sanitation and food safety, packaging, labeling, production cost calculations, and digital marketing. This community service activity aims to improve the knowledge, skills, and independence of the Ombo Village community in processing marine and agricultural products into dry foods and various snacks that are high quality, safe, attractive, and have a market value. The target group includes women administrators and members of the Family Welfare Movement (PKK). This activity was implemented and attended by 20 people through a participatory approach with stages of preparation, socialization, counseling, demonstrations, direct practice, mentoring, and monitoring and evaluation. The products practiced included fish crackers, corn crackers, banana oreos, and cassava lopis. Evaluation results showed that participants were very enthusiastic about the improvement. Practical observations also showed that more than all participants were able to practice the production process according to procedures and produce good quality products. This activity demonstrates that practice-based training can increase community capacity while opening up opportunities for the development of MSMEs based on local potential.

Abstract

Malaria caused by Plasmodium falciparum remains a health problem due to increasing resistance to antimalarial drugs, including artemisinin-based therapy. This study aims to examine the potential and strategies for molecular modification of bioactive compounds in medicinal plants as effective and safe new antimalarial candidates. The method used was a descriptive-qualitative literature review of 19 scientific articles published in 2011–2026 and obtained from Google Scholar, PubMed, and ScienceDirect. The results of the study indicate that plants such as Momordica charantia, Fraxinus griffithii, Piper sulcatum, and Eucalyptus globulus contain secondary metabolites in the form of alkaloids, flavonoids, and terpenoids that have potential as antiplasmodials. Chemical modifications, such as methylation, acetylation, and esterification, supported by in silico modeling and biological tests can improve the stability, affinity, bioavailability, and selectivity of compounds. Thus, molecular modification based on structure-activity relationship (SAR) has the potential to be a strategy for developing new antimalarial drug candidates to address drug resistance.
