Water is an essential resource, crucial for human survival and well-being. In coastal areas like Sayung District, Demak Regency, Central Java, accessing clean drinking water is a significant challenge. This problem is made worse by environmental issues such as tidal flooding, known locally as "rob," which causes the groundwater to become salty and undrinkable. To address this urgent issue, the UNNES (Universitas Negeri Semarang) community service team has launched a project aimed at using rainwater as a source of safe drinking water. The project follows several key steps: first, assessing the current situation to understand the needs and resources of the community; second, training local residents on how to use electrolysis to convert rainwater into potable water; and third, evaluating the effectiveness of the training and the results achieved. The outcomes of this project have been highly positive. The community has gained valuable knowledge about rainwater treatment technologies, developed skills in building electrolysis equipment, and successfully produced fresh water from rainwater. This initiative not only helps to meet the immediate water needs of the community but also provides them with a sustainable solution for their future water needs.

In the current era, digital transformation is essential for accelerating document processing and administrative services, enhancing community engagement in village administration processes, and strengthening competitiveness as a tourist village through e-government. Borobudur Tourist Village, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, still requires improvements in administrative efficiency due to suboptimal village administration. The village faces challenges in managing administrative services that demand automation. This community service initiative involved local government officials and business operators in the Borobudur Tourist Village area. The program employed a phased approach, including training sessions on using e-government programs. The web-based e-government platform was developed to enhance document processing, increase community participation, and bolster the competitiveness of the tourist village. The results demonstrated high enthusiasm among participants and significant positive impacts on simplifying administrative services. With the successful implementation of this program, Borobudur Tourist Village has not only improved services for residents and tourists but also established itself as a model for other tourist villages. Digital transformation is expected to contribute to more transparent, responsive, and sustainable management, reinforcing Borobudur Tourist Village's position as a competitive tourist destination.

The implementation of the Merdeka Curriculum since 2022 has brought significant changes to education in Indonesia. Learning activities in schools now consist of intramural and co-curricular activities, including the Project to Strengthen the Pancasila Student Profile (P5), alongside extracurricular activities. A new addition to the curriculum is the P5, which was absent from previous curricula. In practice, many teachers face challenges in planning P5 learning, particularly in developing project modules based on local wisdom. This challenge is due to the limited understanding of P5, and not all teachers have been certified as part of the "Guru Penggerak" (Pioneer Teacher) initiative. This community service program aims to equip teachers with the knowledge and skills needed to develop local wisdom-based project modules. The benefits of this program are to enhance teachers' understanding and abilities in module development. The community service is conducted through training sessions, consisting of both theoretical instruction and practical application in developing the modules. The target audience comprises 50 teachers from Pioneer Schools in Grobogan Regency. The methodology includes lectures, Q&A sessions, discussions, and practical exercises. The evaluation assesses both the knowledge and skills gained by the participants. After the training, teachers demonstrated improved comprehension and capability in developing local wisdom-based project modules.

The VUCA (Volatility, Uncertainty, Complexity, and ambiguity) phenomenon currently being discussed among the wider community also impacts parenting management, disrupting parenting treatment. Learners are faced with rapid technological developments that require a digital-based parenting approach. On the other hand, teachers and parents need knowledge about parenting program education that is linear with advances in science and technology. The purpose of this service is to increase the understanding of parents and guardians of students about parenting in the digital era and to assist with parenting programs that the Drupadi Cluster Teacher Community has determined. The results of initial interviews with several teachers at schools covered by Gugus partners show there are problems faced by Gugus Drupadi partners, which include the high level of dependence of students on gadgets, as well as the lack of parental attention to the learning process of students at home, becoming a severe challenge in the character building and development of students in elementary schools. Based on these problems, the solution offered is to educate parents as the first madrasah for students about the fulfillment of intact parenting in the digital era, which is accelerated in the Empowerment of Gugus Drupadi in the Parenting Program in Public Elementary Schools in Semarang City. The service team has two roles. The first is to facilitate the stimulation of the parents of the Drupadi Cluster. Facilitators have an essential role in educating, motivating, and implementing digitally charged parenting treatments. The second role is as a companion for the programs determined by the Teacher Community in Gugus Drupadi.

Lentog Tanjung is a traditional culinary heritage of Tanjungkarang Village, Kudus Regency, which embodies historical values and oral traditions (folklore) worth exploring. This culinary tradition reflects the community's identity and forms part of their collective memory, making its preservation crucial. However, modernization and lifestyle changes pose a risk of diminishing this tradition's existence, particularly among the younger generation. This community engagement project aims to strengthen the collective memory of Tanjungkarang Village residents regarding the oral tradition of Lentog Tanjung through a digitalization approach as a means of preserving intangible cultural heritage. The method employed is CBPAR (Community-Based Participatory Action Research), involving relevant stakeholders in a collaborative engagement process. The project consists of seven stages: preliminary study, material digitalization, creation of a digital platform, dissemination, evaluation, and monitoring. Digital technology was utilized to document the Lentog Tanjung oral tradition through videos, audio recordings, a website-based digital platform, and comics. Prior to the implementation of the engagement activities, research was conducted on the history and existence of Lentog Tanjung. The results indicate that digitalizing oral traditions can strengthen community connections with their cultural heritage, particularly among younger generations, and enhance community awareness of the importance of preserving local traditions through modern technology. Digitalization appears to be a promising method for documenting and disseminating the Lentog Tanjung oral tradition, thus prolonging its lifespan amidst globalizations. This project contributes to the development of local cultural preservation strategies through innovative, technology-based approaches.

Aloe vera was often wasted, even though it actually has many benefits. During a morning walk in the Taman Kradenan Asri housing complex, many aloe vera plants were found to be thrown away. When asked to the owner of the plant, why were so many of his aloe vera plants thrown away? The owner of the aloe vera replied that this plant grows very quickly, even though its use was only a little, namely for washing hair as a shampoo supplement and its mucus to help heal minor wounds. This fact encouraged community service activities to be carried out in the housing complex, namely through training for mothers of the Dasa Wisma. This community service activity aims to describe skills and knowledge in developing higher quality aloe vera which could later be used to produce processed products for mothers who are members of the Dasa Wisma in RW 11, Sukorejo Village in Semarang City.
