Abstract

Empowering the community is an endeavor to prepare society for achieving progress, independence, and well-being within a sustainable social justice environment. Effective community empowerment must be tailored to the specific conditions of the target. Correspondingly, the objective of this program was to construct and empower an educational ecotourism village by implementing a hybrid method combining Sisdamas (Community Empowerment System) and Asset-Based Community Development (ABCD). This hybrid approach was expected to facilitate the identification of existing community assets and enhance synergy among stakeholders in creating an educational ecotourism village. Moreover, integrating these two methods could result in an effective, efficient, and sustainable coaching process. Cigugurgirang village possesses several assets that can be developed into an agricultural educational tourism area, including orange gardens, grape vineyards, and ornamental plant areas. They serve as the initial foundation for asset identification. The evaluation of the coaching process incorporated the Social Return on Investment (SROI) framework analysis, yielding a value of 10.16:1. Thus, every investment of 1 million rupiahs would generate a social value of 10.16 million rupiahs. In summary, the present community empowerment program had a multi-faceted impact, encompassing economic, educational, and social benefits. Its primary focus was establishing a sustainable and socially just environment, utilizing a combination of methods to maximize effectiveness. Furthermore, SROI analysis underscored the significant social value generated by the program's investments.

Abstract

Islamic boarding schools (pesantren) are crucial environments that should ensure the safety and well-being of their students. However, reports of sexual violence incidents involving students, particularly perpetrated by teachers or educators within the pesantren, have raised serious concerns. This community service initiative aims to mitigate such issues through a program focused on self-defense training and legal support. Implemented using the ABCD (Asset Based Community Development) method, the program involved 30 male and female students from Pondok Pesantren Usysyaqul Qur’an Kendal. Evaluation of the program's impact revealed significant outcomes: 95% achievement of training objectives, 98% achievement of material delivery targets, an 87% improvement in students' understanding of sexual violence issues, and 90% satisfaction among students regarding the program's effectiveness and enjoyment. These results underscore the program's success in enhancing students' awareness and preparedness concerning sexual violence prevention in pesantren settings.

Abstract

Multiculturalism is the nature of human life to live side by side, not in conflict. Sindang Sari Village is multicultural because it has various religions and ethnic groups. This potential needs to be managed by instilling valuesabout religious moderation. It does not have to wait for conflict to occur but needs to be done as early as possible as a preventive measure so that undesirable things do not happen. This service method is divided into two groups consisting of religious leaders, elder community leaders and youth leaders. Service provides pre-tests and post-tests to measure people’s understanding of religious moderation and tolerance. The results of the pre-test showed sufficient mutual respect without any social contact. After the service, the results of the post-test show a significant increase in understanding that religious moderation is not only done by respecting each other but by carrying out acts of mutual friendship, cooperation in cooperation, and mutual help.

Abstract

Madrasa education is a compelling issue in a Muslim minority country like the Philippines. Amidst the rapid pace of modernization, secular education enjoys strong government support, while Islamic teaching often remains underemphasized. However, the madrasa education system in the Philippines has begun to make positive strides through mutual learning and exchanging experiences with neighboring countries, such as Indonesia. Likewise, the present intensive and participatory assistantship program aimed to elucidate the efforts to promote religious moderation and enhance the educational quality within selected madrasas in Mindanao, the Philippines. The Participatory Action Research (PAR) method, combined with direct mentoring, was employed in this endeavor. Furthermore, the program was designed to address three key objectives: (1) strengthening religious moderation within madrasa education, (2) preparing professional teachers for madrasa education, and (3) enhancing the management of madrasa education. In summary, the outcomes of this program have the potential to contribute to the adoption of the Indonesian Islamic education model within the Muslim community in the Philippines.

Abstract

This community service activity was carried out on March 10-25 2024, which was attended by 20 participants who were members of the TPQ Husnul Khatimah Mosque, Bandung. This program was carried out based on partners' needs related to evaluating the implementation of the learning program, namely the lack of student attention to the quality of Al-Quran reading due to the weakness of the iqro method. To obtain maximum results, this program is carried out using a participatory method with a service learning model. This program runs well and smoothly in accordance with the stages outlined in the activity implementation schedule. This can be seen from the achievement of training objectives and the enthusiasm and activeness of participants in training activities. The results achieved through this program are very significant in increasing participants' knowledge and skills in reading the Al-Quran according to the rules of recitation, as well as increasing motivation in studying the Al-Quran by paying attention to the quality of Al-Quran reading.

Abstract

This article explains the process of instilling values, which is carried out by internalizing community teachings through educational units. The internalization of values is achieved by inserting Samin's noble pitutur in PAI and PPKn subjects at elementary, middle and high school levels. The choice of this educational institution indicates that schools have a strategic role in preserving values. This participatory action research was conducted in Dusun, Japan, a hamlet inhabited by the Samin Bojonegoro community. This community adheres to the teachings of its ancestors. However, on the other hand, the openness in this community also allows for a permissive attitude, which has the potential to erode the strength of their traditions. The research was carried out for four months, starting with problem mapping, problem analysis and action involving traditional stakeholders, policy stakeholders and education stakeholders. The choice of action taken is to insert community values through Islamic Religious Education and Character subjects and Pancasila and Citizenship Education subjects. This insertion is a cultural preservation strategy that stakeholders consider to be the right step because, through this institution, children can internalize the noble values that exist around them.
