Abstract

The Peusijuek tradition in Aceh Selatan represents a cultural construction that integrates Islamic values with Hindu cultural heritage. The historical process of Peusijuek is rooted in the peaceful Islamization that occurred since the 7th century AD, allowing local practices to assimilate with Islamic teachings. This research is a field study aimed at examining how the construction of the Peusijuek tradition is manifested in Aceh Selatan society. The findings indicate that although Hindu elements initially influenced this tradition, Peusijuek has transformed into a ritual that emphasizes prayers for safety and Islamic teachings. The implementation of Peusijuek is led by community leaders or village imams, with each element, from materials to movements, possessing profound symbolism that embodies harmony and fertility. This construction of tradition reflects the adaptation and transformation of cultural heritage within a religious context, maintaining the relevance of Peusijuek in the modern era through integration into various events. As a medium for imparting noble values, Peusijuek plays a crucial role in strengthening the cultural identity of the Aceh Selatan community, creating a bridge between the current generation and the past.

Abstract

This study aims to map the capacity model of the gampong apparatus in realizing disability-inclusive gampong in Miruk Taman Village, Darussalam District, Aceh Besar Regency. This research was conducted using a qualitative method with an exploratory-participatory approach and referring to emancipatory principles. The results of the study found that two strengthening models for gampong apparatus in realizing inclusive gampong were carried out through 3 phases, namely: Awareness, Empowerment, and Mentoring. The Awareness stage was carried out through workshop activities related to the importance of qanun gampong as a legal basis for realizing inclusive gampongs. Furthermore, activities were also carried out to increase the knowledge of gampong apparatus and KSM on the rights of people with disabilities facilitated by the Social Service, the Aceh Building Forum, and academics. The empowerment was carried out through assistance in the formulation of the qanun gampong together with the Head of the Aceh Besar Legal Division, the Aceh Besar Social Service, DPMG, the Aceh Building Forum as a companion institution, and academics from the Islamic Community Development Study Program of UIN Ar-Raniry until the qanun was successfully ratified. Meanwhile, the implementation of qanun is carried out through training for gampong apparatus and KSM through mapping the needs of people with disabilities, providing access to services needed by people with disabilities, and through the declaration of disability-inclusive gampong, which involves the direct participation of people with disabilities as beneficiaries. This capacity model has provided improvements in the social conditions of people with disabilities, especially access to development in Gampong Miruk Taman, where they were previously marginalized.

Abstract

This research aims to explore how digital literacy can empower the village community of Karangsari, Kulon Progo, through the use of e-commerce. With increasing access to the internet and digital technology, Karangsari Village holds significant potential to enhance its local economy via e-commerce platforms. The study employs a qualitative approach, involving in-depth interviews, observations, and documentation with micro, small, and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs), as well as direct observation of community empowerment activities conducted by the Yogyakarta Communications and Informatics Office. Findings reveal that while substantial support for internet infrastructure in the village is crucial, it must be accompanied by high-quality digital literacy education to be truly effective. Strengthening digital literacy can improve the community’s ability to raise their standard of living—particularly by enabling MSME actors to market their products online, thereby increasing income and overall community welfare. The study concludes that more structured and sustainable digital literacy training programs are essential to effectively support the empowerment of rural communities in the digital era.

Abstract

The 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami caused catastrophic damage in Aceh-Indonesia, leaving profound psychological impacts on survivors. This study examines the long-term role of problem-focused coping in predicting post-traumatic growth (PTG) among 145 adult survivors who lost close family members. Using the Post-Traumatic Growth Scale and the Problem-Focused Coping Scale, the results show that problem-focused coping significantly predicts PTG, accounting for 52.34% of the variance (p < 0.001). Survivors who employed active, constructive coping strategies displayed greater growth, meaning-making, and personal development nearly two decades after the trauma. These findings underscore the enduring significance of adaptive coping and the importance of incorporating culturally grounded values into post-disaster mental health interventions.

Abstract

The abuse of Narcotics, Psychotropics, and Other Addictive Substances (NAPZA) is a social issue with far-reaching impacts on public health, the economy, and social stability. This study aims to analyze the implementation of social rehabilitation for NAPZA abuse survivors at the Cinta Kasih Bangsa Foundation (YCKB) in Ungaran. A qualitative research method with a descriptive approach was employed to understand the implementation of social rehabilitation programs and their impact on clients. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, participatory observations, and document analysis. Interviews were conducted with seven informants, four of whom were key informants as well as three additional informants as individual. The findings indicate that YCKB implements social rehabilitation in several stages, including screening, assessment, rehabilitation, and termination. The programs consist of counseling, psychoeducation, sports, recreation, skills training, pharmacotherapy, and spiritual development. The study reveals that these rehabilitation programs contribute to clients' physical and mental recovery, enhance social reintegration, and reduce relapse rates. However, challenges such as societal stigma and limited resources remain obstacles to optimizing rehabilitation efforts. This study recommends periodic evaluations and the strengthening of rehabilitation programs to ensure sustainability and improve the effectiveness of services for clients.

Abstract

Domestic violence is a topic that is frequently debated and discussed, even widely reported on social media, where most husbands or men are portrayed as perpetrators of domestic violence and wives as the victims. However, it is known that within the household, anyone has a significant potential to become a perpetrator. Men as victims of domestic violence are often overlooked in social and legal discourses. This study aims to analyze the causes and impacts of domestic violence against men. The research methodology used is a qualitative approach with data collection techniques including observation, documentation, and interviews. This research was conducted in Aceh Besar District and Banda Aceh City. The study found that power dynamics in relationships, economic imbalance, and rigid gender roles contribute to the worsening condition of male victims. The impacts experienced by men who are subjected to domestic violence tend to include feelings of shame, stigma, and difficulty in accessing help due to social constructs that expect men to be strong and not show weakness. This study provides insight into the need for greater attention to men as victims of domestic violence and emphasizes the importance of changing societal perspectives and policies to create a more inclusive and responsive system for victims of all genders.

Abstract

Selling prices play a crucial role in the lives of oil palm farmers, as the income derived from palm oil is a key factor influencing their welfare. This study aims to examine the impact of changes in the selling price of palm oil on farmers’ welfare, including aspects of health, education, and the economy, as well as the strategies implemented by farmers to cope with the negative effects of palm oil price fluctuations. This research is descriptive in nature and employs a qualitative approach conducted in Gunung Melayu Village, Rahuning Subdistrict, Asahan Regency. Data collection methods include interviews, observation, and documentation. Data analysis in this study is conducted through data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The validity of the data is ensured through source triangulation. The results show that the impact of price changes on health includes problems related to family diet and nutrition, such as the inability to consume meals with proper nutritional standards (the four healthy five perfect food concept), the inability to afford medical treatment from doctors or midwives, and only being able to purchase over-the-counter medicine from small shops due to lower prices. In terms of education, families are delayed in paying school fees for two months and eliminate expenditures for non-essential child needs. Furthermore, in the economic aspect, there is an impact on basic family needs, such as reducing grocery shopping from once every three days to once a week, and replacing daily purchases of fish with cheaper alternatives like eggs and instant noodles. Therefore, farmers apply various strategies when facing the negative impacts of palm oil price fluctuations to maintain household income stability, including reducing non-essential expenses, managing family finances wisely, acquiring assets when prices are stable, and seeking side jobs to increase household income.

Abstract

The issue of suboptimal waste management often leads to environmental pollution and neglects the economic potential of household waste. Amidst this issue, the waste bank program emerges as an innovative solution that not only reduces waste volume but also empowers the community economically. This study aims to analyze the role of the Suka Mulia Waste Bank in improving the economic welfare of the community in Pematang Johar Village, Labuhan Deli District. The study uses a qualitative approach with data collection techniques including observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation. The results show that the waste bank plays a significant role in enhancing community welfare through several mechanisms. First, it provides economic incentives such as waste payments, waste savings, and programs to exchange waste for basic needs. Second, it opens new business opportunities through training in recycling waste into economically valuable products such as eco-bricks, paving blocks, liquid fertilizer, and handicrafts. Third, it expands access to social assistance and public services through programs such as paying BPJS premiums, land taxes (PBB), and even school fees from waste savings. This program also fosters environmental awareness and a household-level culture of waste sorting. The success of the waste bank’s implementation is supported by active community participation, village government support, and the involvement of external institutions. Therefore, the waste bank program must continue to be developed with cross-sectoral support so that its benefits can be widely felt, sustainable, and become a model of environmentally based community empowerment.
