Abstract

This community service program aims to engage children in environmental management activities as a strategy for post-disaster trauma recovery in West Suli. The activities were designed to provide space for emotional expression and psychosocial recovery through educational, recreational, and participatory initiatives, such as environmental education programs, tree planting, and environmental clean-up activities. The implementation method involved a participatory approach using Asset-Based Community Development, facilitated by the community service team. The main subjects of this program were 18 children in Salubua Village. Data collection techniques included observation, interviews, questionnaires, and documentation. The results indicate that the active involvement of children in the program not only increased their awareness and concern for the environment but also helped reduce anxiety and improve their spirit of life after the disaster. It is expected that this program can serve as a model for community-based recovery that sustainably integrates environmental aspects with children's mental health.

Abstract

The increasing circulation of digital content that normalizes incest fantasies poses a challenge to child protection within families. This community service program was conducted in Banyumanik Subdistrict, Semarang City, where preliminary assessments indicated high internet access, limited parental digital supervision, and low public awareness of the legal risks associated with incest-related content. The program aimed to strengthen legal awareness and digital literacy to prevent children's exposure to harmful online content. Using a Participatory Community Education approach, the program involved 35 participants through legal counselling, digital literacy training, focus group discussions, and pre-test/post-test evaluations. Before the intervention, 78% of participants were unaware that incest-fantasy content is categorized as prohibited pornography under Indonesian law. Following the program, 89% of participants were able to identify forms of digital content that normalize incest fantasies, indicating a 67 percentage-point improvement in legal awareness and digital literacy. The program demonstrates that community-based legal education can strengthen family resilience and support child protection in the digital environment.

Abstract

The rapid advancement of information technology requires Islamic boarding schools (pesantren) to modernize their library governance to enhance the quality of information services and students’ literacy. This community service program aimed to describe strategies for strengthening technology-based library governance in pesantren in the digital era. The study employed a descriptive qualitative approach using a service-learning model. The participants included pesantren leaders, library administrators, and students from several Islamic boarding schools in Semarang. The findings revealed that most pesantren libraries were still managed conventionally, lacked standardized operating procedures (SOPs), and made limited use of digital technology in collection management and library services. The intervention program consisted of training on shelving and collection classification, the utilization of library management applications, library space arrangement, and the development of a digital catalog. The evaluation results indicated that the program was effective, as evidenced by improved managerial and technical competencies among library administrators, the establishment of a simple digital catalog system, and enhanced accessibility and efficiency of information services for students. The program also generated positive impacts on library administrators through increased technical and managerial skills, while students benefited from more organized, accessible, and literacy-supportive library services. Based on these findings, strategies for strengthening technology-based library governance in pesantren can be implemented through systematic management planning, capacity building for human resources, the provision of technology-supporting facilities, and the sustainable implementation of digital library systems. Therefore, it is recommended that pesantren develop standardized operating procedures, expand integrated digital catalog systems, provide continuous training for library administrators, and strengthen literacy networks among pesantren to ensure the sustainability of the program.

Abstract

This community service activity was motivated by the importance of Islamic philanthropy-based community empowerment as a form of da'wah bil-hal that promotes social transformation and community independence. The BAZNAS Zakat Village Program in Ciamis Regency integrates social, economic, educational, health, and religious empowerment. The method used was Participatory Action Research (PAR) through observation, participatory mentoring, interviews, documentation, and reflective evaluation involving program managers and beneficiaries. The results show that the program positively improved community welfare by strengthening economic capacity, increasing educational access, providing social protection for vulnerable groups, and reinforcing spiritual values. Based on Jim Ife’s theory, the program reflects three empowerment dimensions: enabling, empowering, and protecting. It also represents da'wah bil-hal through the values of real charity, exemplary conduct, social concern, and public welfare. Therefore, the Zakat Village Program is an effective and sustainable Islamic philanthropy-based empowerment model.

Abstract

Domestic violence remains a persistent social problem that negatively affects the physical, psychological, and social well-being of victims. In Ngaresrejo Village, Sidoarjo Regency, preliminary observations indicated that community members had limited knowledge regarding the forms of domestic violence, victims’ legal rights, and available legal protection mechanisms. This condition highlights the need for community-based legal education as a preventive strategy to strengthen public awareness and encourage early intervention in domestic violence cases. This community service program aimed to enhance legal awareness and strengthen the community’s capacity to prevent domestic violence through a participatory legal education approach grounded in community empowerment principles. The program involved 30 participants, including homemakers, community leaders, and youth representatives. Activities included legal counseling, interactive discussions, and case-based learning, designed to encourage active community participation and critical reflection on domestic violence issues. Program effectiveness was evaluated using pre-test and post-test assessments. The results demonstrated a substantial improvement in participants’ understanding of domestic violence and legal protection mechanisms. Before the intervention, 66.7% of participants were categorized as having a low level of understanding, and 33.3% a moderate level. Following the program, 90% of participants achieved a high level of understanding. Beyond increasing legal knowledge, the activity also fostered greater community awareness of the importance of preventing domestic violence. It strengthened participants’ readiness to contribute to creating a safer family and social environment. These findings suggest that participatory legal education is an effective community empowerment strategy for improving legal awareness and supporting sustainable domestic violence prevention efforts at the community level.

Abstract

Quranic education for children with special needs (CSN) remains a neglected domain within Islamic educational institutions in Indonesia, including at the level of Quranic Learning Centers (TPQ). This article documents and analyzes community service activities in the form of establishing TPQ Inklusi Al-Mubarok in Sukoharjo Village, Margorejo District, Pati Regency, Central Java—the first inclusive TPQ in Pati Regency. The program was pioneered in October 2022 by a lecturer from the Arabic Language Education Study Program at Institut Pesantren Mathaliul Falah (IPMAFA) Pati, in collaboration with student volunteers, Special Education School (SLB) teachers, and institutional support from BAZNAS and the community. Using Participatory Action Research (PAR) and community empowerment approaches, the program designs Quranic learning models tailored to visually impaired, deaf, and speech-impaired learners. Learning media developed include Braille Mushaf, Braille Iqra’, sign language Quran, audio media, and humanistic individual mentoring. Results show: (1) the establishment of Pati’s first inclusive Quranic learning system with 50 students; (2) the emergence of a multi-stakeholder collaborative model among higher education institutions, SLB, BAZNAS, and the community; (3) enhanced competency of IPMAFA students as inclusive da’wah agents; (4) growing public awareness of the religious education rights of CSN. More importantly, the program produced tangible and continuing impacts for the learners themselves: visually impaired students became able to read the Braille Quran and memorize up to several juz through multi-sensory methods, while deaf and speech-impaired students gained the ability to “recite” the Quran through sign language, alongside a restored sense of belonging within the Muslim community. These impacts are designed to be sustainable through a productive-zakat funding scheme (BAZNAS), structured volunteer regeneration, and institutionalized collaboration with the SLB. The novelty lies in an integrative model combining pesantren tradition, inclusive Islamic education, and community-based disability empowerment—a dimension underexplored in Indonesian Islamic community service literature.

Abstract

The development of Karimunjawa as a national and international tourism destination presents both opportunities and challenges for the sustainability of coastal communities’ culture and local wisdom. The increasing flow of tourism and the rapid advancement of digital technology require coastal youth not only to adapt to social transformation but also to develop awareness of preserving their local cultural identity from erosion in the face of changing times. This community engagement program aims to strengthen digital-based cultural literacy among coastal youth in Karimunjawa as a strategy to preserve, develop, and promote cultural values and local wisdom within the local community. The program employed an Asset-Based Community Development (ABCD) approach, emphasizing the identification and optimization of cultural assets owned by coastal communities. The activities involved 30 participants, comprising representatives from youth groups, traditional leaders, educational institutions, and local community members. The program was implemented through several stages, including cultural asset mapping, digital literacy training, and strengthening community networks. Data were collected through observation, interviews, questionnaires, and Focus Group Discussions (FGDs), and were analyzed using a descriptive qualitative and quantitative approach. The findings reveal that the Literacy Camp significantly strengthened coastal youths’ competencies, increasing cultural awareness from 60.0% to 87.4% (27.4%), digital literacy capacity from 58.0% to 89.2% (31.2%), and community participation from 62.0% to 86.6% (24.6%). These improvements enhanced their ability to recognize, preserve, and develop Karimunjawa’s local cultural assets. Young people are not merely cultural inheritors but also key actors in documenting and promoting marine tourism, traditions, and local wisdom through digital platforms. The Literacy Camp strengthens digital and cultural literacy among Karimunjawa youth, preserving local wisdom, empowering communities, supporting sustainable ecotourism, and requiring continuous collaboration for cultural sustainability and community welfare development.

Abstract

This community service program aims to develop Kampung Qur'an Jangkang as a center for religious guidance in order to improve the morals of the younger generation. The main problems faced are the limited number of structured moral guidance programs and the low intensity of religious guidance for teenagers in the community. The community service was carried out using a participatory approach, with stages including identification of community needs, program planning, implementation of activities, and evaluation. The activities carried out included Quran reading and writing coaching, Quran memorization, strengthening Islamic moral values, character training based on role models, and ongoing mentoring by religious leaders and facilitators. The results of the activities showed an increase in Quranic literacy skills, an increase in understanding of Islamic moral values, and a change in the behavior of the younger generation towards being more disciplined, polite, and religious. In addition, Kampung Qur'an Jangkang has developed into an active and sustainable center for religious activities. The conclusion of this activity is that the development of Kampung Qur'an is effective as a model for community empowerment in building the character and morals of the younger generation, and has the potential to be replicated in other areas with similar social characteristics.

Abstract

Community-based local food security depends on communities' capacity to mobilize natural resources, renewable energy, local knowledge, and collective action. This study aimed to assess material resources and renewable energy opportunities through participatory rural appraisal to support sustainable food-system development in Cirinten Village, Indonesia. Village sketch mapping, transect analysis, stakeholder mapping, and participatory interpretation were used to identify assets, relationships, environmental conditions, and development priorities. The assessment identified agricultural land, water, biological resources, livestock, fisheries, and biomass residues as key assets for productive activities. An integration model linking natural resources, renewable energy, value-added processing, community empowerment, and food security was developed. The model emphasizes capacity development, institutional strengthening, participatory governance, local knowledge, and partnerships as enabling factors for improving food availability, economic access, utilization, and long-term stability. Overall, participatory rural appraisal provides a context-specific framework for strengthening resilient village food systems, while proposed energy and processing options require further field validation.
