<![CDATA[Local food innovation based on natural ingredients is increasingly needed to support people's healthy lifestyles. One of the great potentials that has not been exploited optimally is Moringa oleifera leaves, which are known to have high nutritional content such as protein, calcium, vitamin A and antioxidants. This research aims to develop an innovative product in the form of Moripudding, namely a healthy and nutritious pudding made from Moringa leaves, as an alternative dessert that is not only delicious, but also healthy. The method used in this research was to carry out trials through several friends with the optimal composition of Moringa leaves, low-fat milk, gelatin, and natural sweeteners such as honey, as well as organoleptic tests on taste, texture, aroma and color. Initial results show that Moripudding was well received by the panelists, with an average score above 80% for all aspects of the sensory assessment. Apart from that, nutritional content tests show that Moripudding has superior nutritional value compared to conventional pudding, especially in protein and vitamin A levels. This product also has the potential to be developed commercially because the raw material for Moringa leaves is easy to obtain and cheap. With the presence of Moripudding, it is hoped that people will be more open to consuming healthy food based on local plants. This innovation not only supports a healthy lifestyle, but also encourages the use of local biological riches to create food products with high selling value.]]>

<![CDATA[Candlenut fruit (Aleurites molucana) has long been known as a natural ingredient that is full of benefits, both in beauty care. In today's modern era, when people are increasingly aware of the importance of natural and environmentally friendly ingredients, candlenut fruit is again in the spotlight as a traditional solution that is proven to be effective and has high economic value. One of the most popular benefits of candlenut fruit is its ability to thicken and nourish eyebrows naturally. The oil produced from candlenut fruit contains essential fatty acids and vitamin E, which are very good for stimulating hair growth, strengthening roots, and nourishing hair follicles. Regular use of candlenut oil on eyebrows has been shown to accelerate new hair growth, making eyebrows look thicker, blacker, and healthier, without the need for using harmful chemicals. With product innovation and the right marketing strategy, candlenut fruit products are not only able to meet the needs of the domestic market, but also have the opportunity to penetrate the export market. Therefore, optimal utilization of candlenut fruit provides dual benefits as a natural solution in beauty care, as well as a means of economic empowerment through creative and sustainable efforts. Candlenut fruit is known to have interesting benefits for beauty, especially in thickening eyebrows naturally. The oil produced from candlenut contains nutrients that can stimulate hair growth in the eyebrow area, making it look thicker and healthier. The use of candlenut oil is quite simple, usually by applying it regularly to the eyebrows before going to bed. These natural properties make candlenut a choice ingredient in various traditional care products, especially for eyebrow care. Its abundant availability in Indonesia also makes candlenut an easily available and economical beauty solution.]]>

<![CDATA[This community service project aimed to develop students’ translation competence while contributing to the preservation and internationalization of local literature. Implemented at Universitas 17 Agustus 1945 Banyuwangi, the project involved 26 English Language students in a three-month experiential program titled “Translating Local Literature into English.” The activities consisted of a translation workshop, fieldwork in Kemiren Village—a center of Osing culture—and the compilation of bilingual manuscripts. Students were trained in literary translation theory and techniques, then conducted field-based data collection, interviewing local elders and documenting oral texts. These texts were translated collaboratively, with the final outputs compiled into a bilingual anthology entitled “Echoes of Osing.”Survey results showed a significant increase in students’ translation skills and cultural awareness, with over 90% indicating improved confidence and understanding. The project also strengthened university–community engagement by positioning cultural stakeholders as co-educators in the translation process. The field immersion allowed students to appreciate the sociocultural context of Osing literature and provided real-world insights into the complexities of language transfer. The bilingual anthology and accompanying video documentation were disseminated through both print and digital platforms, expanding access to regional Indonesian literature for global audiences. This program demonstrates that student-led literary translation can be a powerful medium for cultural preservation, academic skill-building, and grassroots cultural diplomacy. It highlights the potential of integrating community-based learning with academic programs, offering a sustainable and replicable model for universities aiming to link global engagement with local knowledge. The project also contributes to preserving linguistic diversity and promoting intercultural understanding through education.]]>

<![CDATA[Fisherwomen in Galesong, Takalar Regency, play a significant dual role in the socio-economic life of coastal communities. Not only do they help their husbands in their fishing activities, they also return to their domestic roles as housewives. This condition causes participants to face double pressure, which has a serious impact on their health, productive capacity, and socio-economic well-being. Through a participatory approach, this activity seeks to explore the problems experienced by fisherwomen and identify potentials that can be developed in their empowerment efforts. The methods used include participatory observation, interviews, and focus group discussions (FGD) with fisherwomen. Despite having high enthusiasm and fighting spirit to support family welfare, they are still hampered by limited access to information, training, and formal role legitimacy. From this activity, recommendations emerged to present community-based empowerment programs that respond directly to the realities faced by women.]]>

<![CDATA[Mattiro Uleng Village, a coastal fishing community in Pangkajene and Kepulauan Regency, holds abundant marine resources, yet its utilization remains limited to selling raw fish without further processing. This dependence on unprocessed fish sales has led to fluctuating family incomes, particularly for fishermen’s wives, who rely on their husbands’ catch. This community service program was designed to empower fishermen’s wives in Mattiro Uleng by enhancing their skills in producing value-added fish-based products, specifically fish meatballs, as a means of economic diversification and fostering independent entrepreneurship. The program implementation involved a combination of theoretical knowledge sessions, practical workshops on fish meatball processing, and training in both online and offline marketing strategies. A participatory approach was adopted to actively engage participants throughout the process. Evaluation results showed a significant improvement in participants’ skills, with fish meatball-making competency increasing from 30% to 90%, and marketing knowledge rising from 10% to 75%. This program successfully equipped the participants with practical knowledge, boosted their confidence, and sparked motivation for initiating fish-based culinary enterprises.]]>

<![CDATA[Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) have a strategic role in the national economy, but often face challenges in managerial aspects, including managing consumables inventory. This study aims to analyze the consumables inventory control system at MSME Mapparennu Laundry and Dry Clean Makassar, identify the obstacles faced, and formulate effective improvement strategies. The study used a Participatory Action Research (PAR) approach which is collaborative and participatory, with data collection methods in the form of interviews, observations, documentation, and group discussions. The results of the study indicate that the control system implemented is still manual, not well documented, and not based on historical data, resulting in cost inefficiency, operational disruptions, and low accountability. Some of the main obstacles found include the lack of a recording system, the absence of SOPs, and low awareness and capacity of human resources. To overcome this, it is recommended to implement a simple digital recording system, prepare SOPs, data-based needs planning, periodic supervision, employee training, and optimize storage space. This strategy is expected to improve operational efficiency and the effectiveness of MSME internal control, as well as become a learning model for other similar businesses.]]>

<![CDATA[Cash control is a crucial aspect of financial management for micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs), which often face challenges in maintaining liquidity stability and operational efficiency. This study aims to analyze the implementation of cash control systems in MSMEs and their impact on business sustainability. The method used is qualitative descriptive with a case study approach conducted on several MSMEs in the trade and service sectors. The results show that most MSMEs have not adequately implemented cash control systems, particularly in daily transaction recording, segregation of financial functions, and the use of cash budgets. As a result, MSMEs are at risk of experiencing operational fund shortages and difficulties in making financial decisions. This study recommends the need for education and assistance for MSME actors in implementing simple yet effective cash control systems to enhance business sustainability and competitiveness.]]>

<![CDATA[The Community Service Program aims to improve ethical competency among student mentors through a structured training program that focuses on five key areas: confidentiality, ethical communication, communication style, professional boundaries, and respecting mentee diversity. A total of 31 mentors participated in pre- and post-test assessments, allowing for a measurable analysis of knowledge development. The training was delivered online using Zoom and included interactive discussions, scenario analysis, and self-reflection sessions. Results showed significant improvements in all five indicators, particularly in understanding ethical communication (from 32.3% to 77.4% selecting the highest score), and appropriate communication style (from 41.9% to 80.6%). Even dimensions with high baseline scores, such as confidentiality (74.2%), experienced positive growth. The findings confirm that the training successfully improved participants’ ethical sensitivity, practical communication skills, and preparedness for real-world mentoring situations. This initiative contributed to the development of a responsible mentoring culture that aligns with the values of empathy, professionalism, and inclusion. Future programs should consider expanding to include peer mentors from other faculties and provide ongoing support mechanisms to strengthen ethical mentoring practices.]]>

<![CDATA[Training on the Use of Geodetic GPS is a form of community service aimed at enhancing the technical competencies of vocational high school students in the field of surveying and mapping. Amid the rapid advancement of geospatial technologies, vocational schools face significant challenges in providing training based on modern equipment, resulting in a skills gap between graduates’ competencies and industry demands. This initiative was motivated by the low proficiency of students in operating modern geospatial measurement tools, which are increasingly essential in the professional field. The community service activity was conducted in partnership with SMK Negeri 1 Takalar, targeting 11th and 12th grade students of the Building Information Design and Modeling (DPIB) program. The training employed an experiential learning approach, consisting of concise theoretical instruction, field practice, and a mini-project involving the creation of maps using GPS-based data. A pre-post test evaluation method was explicitly used to assess improvements in students’ knowledge and skills before and after the training. The results showed a significant increase in the understanding of basic GNSS concepts and in students' abilities to collect and process coordinate data. Post-test scores improved by 63% compared to pre-test results, and all student groups successfully completed an independent simple mapping project. This activity also boosted students’ confidence and had a positive impact on their job readiness. The results indicate that hands-on training is highly effective in bridging the competency gap between vocational education and industry requirements, and that this approach should be further developed through a more comprehensive series of training programs.]]>

<![CDATA[Maternal and child health issues remain a significant challenge in rural areas, primarily due to the lack of knowledge about Clean and Healthy Living Behavior (PHBS). This community service activity aimed to improve the knowledge and awareness of housewives in Tetaf Village, South Central Timor Regency, regarding the importance of implementing PHBS in daily life. The method used was interactive health education combining participatory lectures and group discussions, evaluated through pre-test and post-test instruments. The activity was held on June 5, 2025, at the Posyandu of the Tetaf Village Office and involved 20 housewives as participants. The materials were delivered using contextual and easy-to-understand visual aids adapted to local conditions. The results showed a significant improvement in participants' knowledge. The average pre-test score was 59, which increased to 95 on the post-test. In addition to this cognitive gain, participants also demonstrated high enthusiasm, as seen in their active involvement in the discussion sessions and their expressed commitment to adopting PHBS practices at home. The interactive approach enabled effective two-way communication between facilitators and participants, creating a more meaningful learning experience. These findings indicate that interactive and context-sensitive community-based health education is highly effective in enhancing health literacy, particularly among housewives. It is expected that this initiative can serve as a sustainable educational model for similar rural areas to support broader and more equitable health promotion efforts across Indonesia.]]>
