Abstract

The regional autonomy program grants greater authority to local governments to manage their potential, improve public services, and encourage community participation. Ensuring public services are efficient and community-oriented poses distinct difficulties for village officials. Village officials’ service quality is significantly influenced by their competency. A lack of public speaking proficiency among village officials can obstruct effective message delivery and weaken public participation. This community service initiative aims to enhance the soft skills of village officials through public speaking training based on simulation method. This method enables participants to simulate situations similar to real-life conditions, enhancing comprehension, memory, and hands-on skills. The training combines oral teaching with hands-on practice, which is considered effective for experience-based learning. Training evaluation results indicate an improvement in participants’ understanding and skills related to fundamental public speaking techniques. The findings from this activity also emphasize the importance of training designs that are adaptive to participants’ needs, including the necessity for longer allocated time for simulation sessions and the use  of additional learning media such as representative public speaking practice videos. The sustainability of the program will be strengthened through additional competency training fit with field needs and involving Karang Taruna to form an inclusive and participatory public communication ecosystem from an early age.

Abstract

This community engagement program aimed to enhance the capacity of Indonesian migrant workers’ microenterprises in Kuala Lumpur through training and implementation of Standard Operating Procedures (SOP) and Quality Control (QC). Based on a preliminary survey, most business owners lacked fundamental skills in production management and quality control, resulting in inconsistent product quality. The program was conducted on May 18, 2025, involving 35 microenterprise participants. Activities included theoretical training and practical simulations on SOP development and QC application. Evaluation was carried out through pre-tests and post-tests, which revealed a significant improvement in the participants' average score from 45.25 to 83.75, with the most notable increase observed in the ability to draft QC guidelines. The results demonstrated that the application of SOP and QC can effectively improve product consistency, quality, and competitiveness. However, challenges remained in the implementation process, such as time constraints, limited equipment, and low technical literacy. Therefore, follow-up strategies such as ongoing mentorship, the use of visual SOPs, and the establishment of peer learning communities are essential to ensure sustainability.

Abstract

MSMEs are an integral part of advancing the rural economy and realizing the SDGs at the grassroots/village level. Many rural MSMEs often seem not to feel the full impact of this potential, as they are hindered by a lack of digital literacy, limited application of marketing strategies, and only weak ties to the economy. The primary objective of this program is to enhance the economic potential of MSMEs in Kalisidi Village, West Ungaran District, Semarang Regency, by utilizing an online cooperative application. A total of 30 MSMEs in Kalisidi Village participated in a community service program that included explanations and group coaching. Some of these activities included community training, presentations, and simulated use of a digital platform for a cooperative. The findings indicated that the trainees developed a deeper understanding of digital marketing and had high confidence in leveraging technology to conduct business. The digital platform also established an integrated business environment for MSMEs, facilitating collaboration in branding, shared resource deployment, and new market entry. This initiative demonstrates that implementing a digital cooperative model can effectively catalyze inclusive and sustainable economic development in rural areas. Furthermore, it contributes to the achievement of several SDG targets, particularly SDG 8 (decent work and economic growth) and SDG 811 (sustainable cities and communities). Digital integration rooted in local potential is key to building a resilient and independent village economy.

Abstract

Inclusivity emphasizing the acceptance and appreciation of diversity without discrimination is crucial in youth organizations such as Karang Taruna, a village-level platform for adolescent development in Indonesia. This community service paper examines the role of inclusivity in strengthening adolescent mental health within Karang Taruna Kalisegoro, Gunungpati, Semarang. The initiative was carried out by a multidisciplinary team from Universitas Negeri Semarang (Unnes) through a one-day workshop on mental health literacy and inclusive leadership for 20 administrators and members of Karang Taruna. The methods included interactive lectures, case analysis using documentary films on adolescent mental health disorders, peer tutorials, and facilitated group discussions, grounded in Ryff’s Psychological Well-Being Model. Results revealed a significant increase in participants’ understanding of mental health issues, early recognition of mental disorder symptoms, reduced stigma, and commitment to establishing a mental health-aware community integrated with Karang Taruna and the village government. Participants also reported enhanced confidence in inclusive leadership and the ability to foster mutually supportive environments, supporting all six dimensions of Ryff’s psychological well-being. Recommendations include sustained cross-sector collaboration, expansion of literacy programs, and further empirical research to measure the long-term impact of inclusivity on adolescent mental health indicators.

Abstract

Village fund management requires oversight to ensure financial accountability and reduce the potential for irregularities. In accordance with Law No. 6 of 2014 on Villages, the allocation of village funds reflects the government’s commitment to fostering independent, progressive, and democratic rural communities. Giling Village, Pabelan District, Semarang Regency, continues to face non-compliance with Minister of Home Affairs Regulation (Permendagri) No. 20 of 2018 and encounters challenges within its Village-Owned Enterprise (BUMDes), particularly in organizational structuring, legal formalization, and adherence to Good Corporate Governance (GCG) principles. The community service program consists of three main components: (1) identifying gaps in the Village SDGs; (2) facilitating the official registration of BUMDes to ensure regulatory compliance; and (3) delivering training on financial accountability and GCG in village fund management. These efforts are expected to increase progress in achieving village SDGs, especially in the areas of economic empowerment and sustainable development. . Mapping results show that the village has achieved 41% of its SDG indicators. The highest priorities fall under Typology III (health) and Typology V (education), while the lowest priorities are found in Typology IV (environment) and Typology VII (networked village). Through structured financial governance, the legal transformation of BUMDes, and capacity-building initiatives for village administrators, the program aims to strengthen financial transparency, accountability, and sustainable economic empowerment in the village.

Abstract

Palm sugar production in Semarang Regency has excellent potential to the abundance of palm trees that thrive. One of the production centers is Kalisidi Village, which is located on a plateau with hilly topography and green vegetation. The local community has maintained traditional production methods for generations, from manual sap harvesting to natural firewood processing. Although these products have authentic appeal and high quality, manufacturers face the challenge of increasingly fierce competition with other businesses that have adopted modern technology. Strategic solutions can be implemented to help palm sugar MSMEs in Kalisidi Village maintain a sustainable competitive advantage through innovation in packaging design. Packaging design training using applications such as Canva are expected to produce attractive, informative, and functional packaging that can increase product appeal while strengthening the brand image. Digital marketing through e-commerce platforms is an advanced  strategic solution to expand market reach. Assistance in digital business processes can increase understanding of data-based marketing and direct interaction with consumers. With the implementation of this community service program, participants have gained an understanding of how to create innovative packaging designs and develop appropriate digital marketing strategies. The follow-up to this community service activity is the continued guidance and monitoring of participants to ensure the sustained implementation of innovative packaging design and effective digital marketing strategies.

Abstract

Pondok pesantren are increasingly paying attention to environmental issues, sustainability, and the promotion of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), as well as striving to provide life skills for students (Santri) through training and self-development activities. This article explains the impact of utilizing a mini greenhouse to improve students’ agricultural skills through a community service program at Pondok Pesantren Al Asror Semarang, targeting 15 students. The activities were carried out over five months (May to September 2025) in the form of training and assistance in using the mini greenhouse. The training introduced the mini greenhouse and its benefits, after which the students worked together to prepare and build it within the pondok pesantren environment. The next activities included plant cultivation, starting from seed sowing, planting, and caring for the plants until harvest time, under the guidance and supervision of the community service team. The students were highly enthusiastic and motivated to make use of the mini greenhouse, and they received support from the pondok pesantren leaders to enhance their life skills. The students then continued using the mini greenhouse for organic vegetable cultivation, starting from sowing to harvest time.
