Abstract

General Background: Food waste is a pressing global issue, with significant environmental and social implications. Effective communication strategies are essential for raising awareness and driving action in food rescue initiatives. Specific Background: Food Bank Bandung utilizes data-driven storytelling on Instagram to address food waste, employing techniques such as narrative communication, data explanation, and structured content presentation. While these methods enhance audience engagement by merging emotional narratives with empirical data, challenges remain in ensuring data transparency and fostering long-term audience engagement. Knowledge Gap: Despite the apparent effectiveness of data-driven storytelling, limited research exists on its application in the context of food rescue initiatives, particularly regarding audience comprehension and the consistency of data updates. Aims: This study aims to provide an in-depth evaluation of the strategies employed by Food Bank Bandung in their data-driven storytelling efforts on Instagram, focusing on how these strategies shape impactful narratives for local audiences. Results: Through qualitative descriptive methods, including in-depth interviews with operational teams and content analysis of Instagram publications, the study reveals that Food Bank Bandung effectively enhances public awareness and trust by transparently presenting operational data on food rescue activities. However, challenges such as inconsistent data updates and audience misunderstanding of data remain. Novelty: This research contributes to the field of communication studies by elucidating the specific strategies used in data-driven storytelling for food rescue, highlighting the intersection of narrative engagement and data transparency. Implications: The findings underscore the need for improved data presentation techniques and regular updates to enhance audience comprehension, ultimately advancing the effectiveness of food rescue campaigns in urban settings.

Abstract

Objective: This study investigates the paradox of power in workplace sexual harassment, focusing on how authority and power dynamics contribute to harassment incidents and perpetuate toxic organizational environments. Method: Utilizing a mixed-methods approach, the research combines quantitative surveys and qualitative interviews with employees across various industries to explore the relationship between authority, power imbalances, and harassment occurrences. Results: The findings reveal that power imbalances significantly facilitate harassment by enabling individuals in positions of authority to exploit their power without accountability. Organizational culture, inadequate reporting mechanisms, and fear of retaliation are identified as critical factors that sustain this paradox. Novelty: This study uniquely highlights the contradiction between the intended role of authority—to ensure structure and productivity—and its misuse as a tool for harassment. By emphasizing the need for ethical leadership and accountability, the research provides new insights into dismantling power dynamics that perpetuate workplace harassment. Recommendations include comprehensive organizational reforms, transparent reporting systems, and leadership training to promote ethical authority use, fostering safer and more equitable work environments.
