Abstract

The increase in the Maternal Mortality Rate not only reflects maternal health problems, but also shows the existence of gender inequality and injustice. The low public awareness of pregnant women's health also contributes to the high number of AKI. Therefore, the participation of women's organizations in society is highly expected to be involved, contribute, and responsible for women's issues. The purpose of this community service activity is to provide assistance and training to women's organizations in an effort to prevent maternal and child deaths. This activity was carried out in the city of Makassar, especially in areas that are the center of women's community organization activities and there are pregnant women. The mentoring was carried out for 3 months, starting from June to August 2023, using pre and post test analysis. The results of this service activity show that women's organizations can play a role as a companion for pregnant women, which is assessed through increasing knowledge and attitudes before and after participating in training.

Abstract

Payment for Environmental Services (PES) is an environmental service compensation activity conducted by Forest Programme IV (FP-IV), designed to be implemented in the Mamasa Sub-Watershed of the Saddang Watershed. The implementation of this PES plan will be collaborated with parties such as the Bakaru Watershed Forum, Hydroelectric power plant (PLTA), and Forest Farmer Groups (KTH) in selected villages over a 5-year contract. However, the challenge is that the target community lacks trust in PES activities and most refuse to join, making the formation of KTH Mappideceng problematic. The purpose of community service is to enhance the capacity of KTH Mappideceng based on the requirements and criteria established by the PES model scheme. The methods used include primary socialization (door-to-door) such as surveys, lectures, and discussions. The results of the community service activities in KTH Mappideceng, Betteng village, showed an increase in the number of members from 12 to 21, with 15 being new members and 6 being existing ones. After the socialization carried out by the team, enthusiasm and motivation to join increased; however, the intervention location and funding limitations were predetermined by the PES model mechanism (FP-IV).

Abstract

Bullying is intentional behavior aimed at causing physical or mental harm, often seen as a form of violence. In schools, bullying is common, with many students reporting incidents to teachers and parents. Data from the Indonesian Child Protection Commission (2020) indicates that there were 1,567 cases of bullying in educational settings, including 76 cases where children were victims and 12 cases where they were perpetrators. This community service initiative sought to assess students' understanding of bullying in Balocci, focusing on increasing awareness of positive behaviors to prevent all types of bullying, including physical, verbal, social, and cyberbullying. The activity took place on October 14, 2023, at SMP Negeri 2 Balocci, Pangkep Regency, South Sulawesi. It used a combination of lecture and educational game methods, specifically the Muslim Children's Quartet Cards. The lecture provided an overview of bullying’s definition, types, causes, impacts, and prevention strategies through a PowerPoint presentation. Meanwhile, the quartet card game, a new method for bullying prevention, added an interactive component. Results showed an increase in participants' knowledge on bullying prevention, with scores rising from 75% to 80% post-intervention. This program suggests establishing a school complaint center involving staff and students to further prevent bullying.
