Abstract

Background: Surabaya generated 660,946.82 tons of waste in 2024, with households contributing 85.2% of the waste stream, making neighbourhood-based circular waste governance a pressing community development issue. Objective: This community engagement program aimed to strengthen circular economy literacy, household sorting practice, waste-bank documentation, and participatory governance among 40 eligible residents, waste-bank actors, and local partners in Kelurahan Rangkah, Kecamatan Tambaksari. Method: The method combined planning, implementation, and monitoring-evaluation through coordination meetings, needs assessment, training, mentoring, pre-post questionnaires, observation checklists, practice-output rubrics, waste-bank transaction logs, FGD guides, and follow-up indicators. Results: Planning produced three coordination meetings, 40 targeted needs-assessment responses, six mapped stakeholder groups, five evaluation instruments, and an eight-week mentoring schedule. Implementation consisted of one orientation, four training sessions, eight weeks of mentoring, two peer discussion forums, 85% attendance, 26 active mentoring participants, and 28 documented practice outputs. Implication: Monitoring-evaluation recorded 70% acceptable outputs, a mean capacity score movement from 52.0 to 73.2, two validation forums, one institutional follow-up plan, and a 3–6 month sustainability monitoring design. Novelty: The novelty of this program lies in integrating practical waste intervention, informal labour recognition, participatory data, simple quantitative evaluation, and institutional follow-up into one evidence-based community engagement model.

Abstract

Background: Disaster-prone Supiturang Village in Pronojiwo, home to 4,050 residents within the Mount Semeru hazard context, required a mechanism for translating local risk experience into evidence usable in disaster governance. Objective: This community engagement program engaged 40 intended residents, village actors, volunteers, youth, women’s-group representatives, and neighbourhood representatives to develop participatory risk maps and advocacy-oriented recommendations. Method: Using a planning-implementation-monitoring/evaluation design, this program combined baseline surveys, short interviews, attendance sheets, observation checklists, mapping products, product rubrics, FGD notes, and partner-commitment forms to document quantitative and qualitative evidence. Results: Planning documentation specified three coordination meetings, five stakeholder groups, 40 baseline responses, five instruments, and two reflection-forum agendas. The implementation framework comprised one orientation session, three workshops, two mentoring clinics across six weeks, four group maps, one consolidated map, and one recommendation matrix. Implication: Monitoring and evaluation targeted 75% attendance, 70% acceptable outputs, a capacity benchmark from index 100 to at least 120, two validation forums, and one follow-up plan. Novelty: Its novelty lies in integrating participatory spatial evidence, measurable engagement thresholds, mentoring, collective validation, and institutional follow-up without presenting planned indicators as demonstrated policy effects.

Abstract

Background: Amanuban Tengah District, with 17,346 residents and a regency-level stunting prevalence of 50.1%, required locally embedded maternal-health education capable of continuing beyond externally led outreach. Objective: This community engagement program aimed to strengthen 18 community health volunteers as facilitators and local co-owners of maternal-health education for 45 pregnant or recently postpartum women across Tumu, Sopo, and Taebesa. Method: A participatory planning–implementation–monitoring-evaluation design combined coordination records, needs matrices, attendance sheets, pre-post questionnaires, competency rubrics, structured observations, focus-group discussions, and institutional follow-up indicators. Results: Planning comprised three coordination meetings, four needs matrices, five stakeholder groups, five measurement instruments, and nine scheduled mentoring observations. Implementation recorded 88.9% volunteer workshop attendance, 16 completed practice outputs, six village education sessions, and 14 volunteers actively facilitating during mentoring. Monitoring-evaluation retained 40 matched maternal respondents and 16 matched volunteers, with normalized volunteer knowledge scores changing from 54 to 76, 15 acceptable outputs, 15 volunteers active at follow-up, and independently organized activities documented in two of three villages. Novelty: This program integrates measurable capacity development, supervised community practice, participatory validation, and institutionally documented continuity, repositioning volunteers from temporary message distributors to emerging educational co-owners while treating sustainability as graduated evidence rather than an assumed outcome in practice.

Abstract

Background: Tapak Gedung Village faced limited documented access to sustained supplementary literacy services, while Tebat Karai District contained 15,163 residents across 14 villages and urban wards, making neighborhood-based provision socially relevant. Objective: This community engagement program aimed to strengthen reading practice, engagement, and local learning governance among 60 children aged 7–12 years. Method: A participatory planning–implementation–monitoring-evaluation design combined baseline and endline literacy tests, caregiver surveys, attendance sheets, portfolio rubrics, observation checklists, focus groups, and institutional-readiness indicators. Results: Planning produced three coordination meetings, a mapped cohort of 60 children, four stakeholder groups, five instrument sets, and a sixteen-week implementation schedule. Implementation organized three literacy hubs, 32 sessions per child, 96 hub-session records, mentoring by 12 facilitators, and a planned corpus of 240 core literacy products. Monitoring-evaluation established benchmarks of 75% mean attendance, 70% adequate dosage and product completion, 20% literacy-score improvement, 15% engagement improvement, one validation forum, and one twelve-month continuation plan, although these thresholds were not treated as confirmed final effects. Novelty: This program lies in integrating distributed neighborhood hubs, culturally situated mentoring, child-level measurement, participatory interpretation, and institutional readiness within a data-grounded model of educational recovery and community ownership that links learning evidence with durable, locally governed post-program continuity mechanisms.

Abstract

Background: Disability inclusion in Durajaya Village remained vulnerable to short-term mobilisation despite a population of 5,596 residents and prior participation by 590 disabled people in a national inclusion event. Objective: This community engagement program examined whether accessible, disability-led facilitation could strengthen post-workshop participation among 40 participants, including 24 persons with disabilities. Method: A participatory planning–implementation–monitoring-evaluation design combined baseline surveys, six site audits, four workshops, two mentoring encounters, structured observations, product rubrics, focus groups, paired pre-post assessment, and eight-week action tracking. Results: Planning produced three coordination meetings, eight prioritised needs, six mapped stakeholder groups, and five core measurement instruments. Implementation recorded 134 of 160 attendance opportunities, 30 completed individual outputs, eight team proposals, and active mentoring contributions from 27 participants. Monitoring-evaluation retained 32 paired respondents, whose combined mean capacity score moved from 50.0 to 64.2, while one validation forum engaged 22 attendees and five of eight agreed actions had commenced by week eight. Novelty: This program advances a data-grounded community engagement model that distinguishes attendance, applied participation, accommodation responsiveness, community validation, and institutional follow-through across individual, relational, environmental, and organisational levels of local community practice, thereby making the temporal limits of workshop-centred inclusion empirically visible without claiming long-term or causal impact.

Abstract

Background: Rural youth in Cibeber Subdistrict face fragmented transitions between education, informal work, and sustainable livelihoods within a population of 143,718 residents, including 32,955 people aged 15–29. Objective: This community engagement program aimed to strengthen livelihood planning, employability, and practical pathway development among 40 participants aged 18–29. Method: A participatory planning–implementation–monitoring-evaluation design combined baseline questionnaires, attendance records, mentoring logs, output rubrics, pre-post assessments, focus groups, partner validation, and follow-up indicators covering participation, capacity, output quality, pathway action, and institutional continuity. Results: Planning produced three coordination meetings, 40 baseline records, six stakeholder categories, five instruments, and a 12-week activity schedule aligned with locally mapped needs and referral opportunities. Implementation delivered eight training sessions with 86.9% attendance, documented 31 completed livelihood portfolios, and recorded 27 participants completing at least three mentoring cycles. Monitoring and evaluation found that matched mean capacity scores rose from 48.0 to 65.6, 26 of 31 submitted outputs met the competency threshold, and 25 participants documented at least one livelihood-pathway action during follow-up. Novelty: This program advances a data-grounded mentoring model that connects participant diagnosis, situated practice, community validation, assigned institutional follow-up, and transparent evidence review across diverse rural livelihood contexts without treating short-term learning indicators as proof of final employment or income impact.

Abstract

Background: Rural ageing in Petir Village, comprising 3,584 residents across 13 hamlets, exposed gaps between clinic-based provision and the everyday social support required by older adults. Objective: This community engagement program aimed to strengthen coordinated care networks for 65 older residents through family, neighbour, cadre, and service participation. Method: A participatory planning–implementation–monitoring-evaluation design used baseline questionnaires, care-network maps, attendance sheets, product rubrics, observation logs, referral trackers, pre–post measures, and focus groups to assess participation, support availability, loneliness, well-being, care capacity, and institutional continuity. Results: Planning documented three coordination meetings, 65 baseline assessments, at least eight need categories, and six core instruments. Implementation comprised one orientation, four core sessions, 13 care circles, 52 scheduled mentoring meetings, 65 network maps and support plans, and up to 26 priority home visits. Monitoring and evaluation recorded 52 matched records, 75% mean attendance, 70% acceptable outputs, a 20% knowledge increase, a 20-percentage-point improvement in reachable support, and one institutional continuation plan, without treating these findings as causal effects. Novelty: Its novelty lies in integrating relational care mapping, situated mentoring, quantitative tracking, community validation, and institutional follow-up within a single data-grounded model for ageing-in-place community development, responsive to rural accessibility, caregiving burden, service reach, and diverse local care cultures.

Abstract

Background: Mental-health vulnerability among Indonesian youth remains urgent: 34.9% experienced mental-health problems in the preceding year, while only 2.6% accessed relevant services. Objective: This community engagement program aimed to strengthen mental-health literacy, reduce stigmatising responses, develop bounded peer-support skills, and improve referral judgement among 40 youths aged 16–24 in Depok, Sleman. Method: A participatory planning–implementation–monitoring-evaluation design combined partner coordination, baseline and post-test questionnaires, attendance records, structured observation, simulation and product rubrics, focus groups, follow-up surveys, and institutional validation indicators. Results: Planning records documented three coordination meetings, 40 baseline questionnaires, six to eight mapped needs, five measurement instruments, and one safeguarding-referral protocol. Implementation comprised one orientation, four 120-minute sessions, 16 role-play simulations, 16 peer-team outputs, and two mentoring sessions, creating a mixed-method corpus of participation and practice. Monitoring-evaluation assessed attendance against a 75% benchmark, output quality across 16 simulations and 16 documents, and capacity against 20% literacy-confidence and 15% stigma benchmarks, complemented by two focus groups, one validation forum, and one institutional follow-up plan. Novelty: Its novelty lies in integrating culturally situated training, assessed practice, peer mentoring, participatory reflection, safeguarding, and documented institutional continuation within a single data-grounded community development framework responsive to local youth and service structures and accountable community-based mental-health support systems over time.
