Abstract

Sexual violence is a crime that is in the global public spotlight, with adolescents as vulnerable victims of this crime. In Indonesia, sexual violence against adolescents is the highest case among other cases of violence. Lack of knowledge about sexual violence is one of the causes of high cases of sexual violence in adolescents in Indonesia. Therefore, debriefing on sexual violence needs to be done to minimize sexual violence in adolescents. By implementing sharing-knowledge of sexual violence in adolescents, this community service activity aims to share knowledge and minimize sexual violence in adolescents, especially in the Tinambung neighborhood, Majene District, West Sulawesi. The target of this activity is young people in the Tinambung neighborhood who are involved in Mandar Peduli. The method of lecturing and watching movies is the right choice in implementing community service activities. The results of this service activity are expected to increase understanding and awareness of the general public, especially members of the Mandar Peduli community of sexual violence. In addition, there is an agreement in the minutes of the event which is a concrete step that can be taken through Mandar Peduli in the prevention and handling of sexual violence in adolescents, which can mainly be found in various environments in the community through the guidance of the West Sulawesi University sexual violence prevention and handling unit, this is in accordance with the hope that it can make a positive contribution in preventing and controlling sexual violence in the Tinambung Region, West Sulawesi

Abstract

Traditional fishermen are exposed to various occupational hazards due to the nature of their work, often lacking adequate safety practices and health knowledge. This community service initiative aimed to improve occupational safety and health (OSH) behaviors among traditional fishermen on Kambuno Island, Pulau Sembilan District, Indonesia. Using a one-group pre- and post-test design, the intervention targeted a sample of 60 out of 862 local fishermen. The program involved counseling sessions and the distribution of OSH guidelines specifically tailored for fishing activities, delivered over a two-month period. The intervention assessed various components related to OSH, including the use and completeness of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), knowledge and practice levels, personal health habits, treatment-seeking behavior, and environmental health awareness. Results showed significant improvements in PPE usage, knowledge levels, and OSH practices. For instance, post-intervention data indicated a substantial increase in the use of head, hand, and foot protection, as well as life vests. Furthermore, positive behavioral changes were observed in boat cleaning, self-care, and formal healthcare-seeking behaviors, as fishermen increasingly opted for health centers over traditional treatments. The findings suggest that focused OSH interventions can effectively enhance safety and health behaviors in high-risk fishing communities. This program underscores the importance of continued education and monitoring to sustain these improvements and reduce occupational risks in traditional fishing communities.

Abstract

Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is a major global health issue, with rising prevalence linked to lifestyle factors. In Indonesia, DM was the third leading cause of mortality in 2019, and cases are projected to increase by 47% by 2045. Given these concerns, community education plays a crucial role in enhancing public awareness regarding DM prevention and management. This program aimed to enhance community knowledge about DM risks in Taratara Satu Village, Tomohon Barat District. A pre-experimental one-group pretest-posttest design was used, involving 12 DM-diagnosed respondents. The intervention included a pre-test, door-to-door education using lectures and visual media, and a post-test. Data were analyzed descriptively to assess knowledge improvement. Before the intervention, 58.33% of participants had good knowledge, while 41.67% had moderate knowledge. After the program, 91.67% demonstrated good knowledge, showing a significant improvement. The educational program successfully enhanced public knowledge about Diabetes Mellitus in Taratara Satu Village. The intervention proved effective in increasing awareness of DM risk factors, symptoms, and prevention strategies. This study underscores the importance of continuous community education to promote healthier lifestyles and reduce DM prevalence.

Abstract

Stunting is one of the public health problems that is still a concern in Indonesia with a high prevalence at both national and local levels. Based on Riskesdas 2020, the prevalence of stunting in Indonesia reached 27.67%, while the national target is 14% by 2024. To support these efforts, Tri Tunas Nasional Institute of Technology and Health in collaboration with Rumah Zakat organized a community service program entitled "Healthy Mothers, Stunting-Free Children Agent". This activity was aimed at pregnant and breastfeeding mothers in Rapokalling District, Makassar, with the aim of increasing their knowledge and awareness about stunting and how to prevent it. This program uses participatory education methods, interactive discussions, and food distribution as practical support. Evaluation was conducted through pre-test and post-test to measure knowledge improvement. Results showed a significant increase in participants' understanding of stunting and balanced nutrition, as well as behavioral changes towards a healthy diet. These findings demonstrate the importance of community-based interventions integrated with logistical support for successful stunting prevention.

Abstract

A common issue in public health services is the limited knowledge and skills of posyandu cadres in conducting accurate anthropometric measurements, which affects the assessment of children's nutritional status. This community service program through training aims to improve the competencies of posyandu cadres in anthropometric measurements in Mawang Village, Somba Opu District, Gowa Regency. Anthropometric measurements are essential for assessing children's nutritional status and overall community health. The participatory training method involved cadres actively in every stage, from planning to evaluation. The training was conducted on September 14, 21, and 28, 2024, at Nurul Huda Mosque, with the participation of 35 posyandu cadres. The training materials included anthropometric measurement theory, correct techniques, and practical demonstrations. The evaluation results showed a significant increase in cadres' knowledge, with an average pre-test score of 13.37 and an average post-test score of 14.60 (p-value 0.000). This increase demonstrates the effectiveness of the training in enhancing cadres' understanding of anthropometric measurements, which is expected to contribute to improving the quality of health services at posyandu. This study emphasizes the importance of continuous training for posyandu cadres to support public health improvement efforts.

Abstract

The utilization of household medicinal plants (in Indonesia known as TOGA) as a form of local wisdom holds great potential for improving public health. However, its use as an alternative traditional treatment remains suboptimal, especially among the younger generation. TOGA not only serves as cooking ingredients but also offers natural and independent health benefits. Therefore, this empowerment activity aims to enhance students' knowledge and awareness of the benefits of TOGA through educational counseling and practical garden-making activities. The program was conducted on October 13-14, 2024, at SD Negeri 21 Rumbia, involving 52 students from grades 3, 4, and 6. The methods used included lectures, leaflet distribution, an interactive game called "Guess the Picture", Q&A sessions, and hands-on planting of six types of TOGA plants: ginger, lemongrass, galangal, turmeric, basil, and celery. The evaluation was carried out using pre-tests and post-tests with five questions designed to measure students' knowledge improvement. The results showed a significant increase (p < 0.05) in students' knowledge, with the percentage of those classified as having sufficient knowledge rising from 11.5% to 26.9%. In addition to enhancing knowledge, the hands-on TOGA planting activity provided students with practical experience that reinforced their understanding of the health benefits of medicinal plants. With active student involvement and support from the school, this program is expected to contribute to public health improvement through the sustainable use of TOGA.

Abstract

Anemia is one of the common health problems worldwide, where there are around 1.62 billion people in the world suffering from anemia, or around 24.8% of the global population. This activity aims to provide education about anemia to adolescent girls at MTS Madani, Gowa Regency, through an interactive anemia literacy approach and health checks to detect anemia conditions early. This approach includes a series of structured stages, starting from pre-test, initial socialization, counseling, interactive discussion, health screening, to evaluation. The results obtained in the pre-test showed that 56.7% of respondents had sufficient knowledge about anemia, while in the post-test, this figure increased to 60.8%. Although there was a significant increase (P =0.000), a small percentage of respondents still had insufficient knowledge after attending the education, although the percentage was slightly lower in the post-test (39.2%) compared to the pre-test (43.3%). This suggests that the education provided can increase community literacy about anemia, but there is a need to continue to improve the quality and methods of counseling to achieve a more even level of understanding.

Abstract

Nutritional problems among toddlers remain a significant public health issue, often caused by limited knowledge of balanced nutrition. This community service activity aimed to address this issue by improving the knowledge of mothers with toddlers regarding balanced nutrition as an effort to prevent nutritional problems. The beneficiaries were 21 mothers participating in the SEHATI Pertamina program within the Tabaringan Community Health Center (Puskesmas Tabaringan) working area, Makassar. The program included educational counseling and practical training on making anchovy sausages as a nutritious food alternative. The methods used were lectures and interactive discussions, followed by knowledge assessments through pre-tests and post-tests. Factors contributing to the lack of knowledge about balanced nutrition included maternal factors, household environment, poor food quality, inappropriate feeding practices, food and beverage safety, breastfeeding, infections, socio-economic and political conditions, healthcare services, education, social and cultural aspects, agricultural and food systems, water, sanitation, and the environment. The evaluation results showed a significant improvement in the participants' knowledge. Before the education, 28% of participants had good knowledge, which increased to 61% after the program, indicating the effectiveness of educational interventions in enhancing the understanding of balanced nutrition. The findings highlight the importance of continuous educational interventions to improve maternal knowledge and practices related to child nutrition, which can contribute to reducing nutritional problems in the long term.
