Abstract

Pro-environmental behavior is increasingly demonstrated by the younger generation across the globe. In Gunungkidul, a rural region of Indonesia, the young generation initiated the resan community that emerged in response to the Cempaka hurricane of 2017, focusing on revitalizing local springs as reservoirs to mitigate prolonged dry seasons caused by climate change. This study explores the formation, worldviews, and perceptions surrounding the resan community’s activities through in-depth interviews, participant observation, and social media analysis. Spanning 42 of Gunungkidul’s 144 villages, this youth-driven movement is rooted in Javanese cultural values, emphasizing water conservation and community resilience through local wisdom, tacit knowledge, and grassroots participation. Diverse perceptions about resan reflect an ongoing dialogue that requires further attention from stakeholders and policymakers. The Resan Gunungkidul Community provides a platform for individuals who care about the environment and wish to contribute to conservation efforts. Community participation, especially the young generation, is a cornerstone of this initiative, promoting water conservation rooted in collective action. The study highlights the importance of integrating localized efforts like tree planting with broader multidisciplinary approaches, aligning with global practices of ecological preservation and sustainable development.

Abstract

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a global health problem that is also a public health challenge in Indonesia, and the prevalence of DM has increased significantly. A healthy lifestyle is currently being promoted to prevent diabetes and control the disease, both through food and exercise. One alternative food ingredient to replace rice and wheat flour with a low glycemic index is breadfruit. Breadfruit has a glycemic index of 23-60 compared with wheat, so it can control blood sugar levels. The purpose of this activity is to provide knowledge about diabetes mellitus and healthy eating patterns or diets and to be able to make food for DM sufferers. The target of this activity is the mothers of cadres from all sub-districts in Utan Kayu Utara Village. The method of implementing the activity is through direct education and showing several videos on how to process breadfruit flour. Participants consisted of 30 cadres. They asked a lot of questions and discussed the material given enthusiastically. There was an increase in cadre knowledge about DM from 51 to 76 points. They were able to utilize breadfruit flour as an alternative source of carbohydrate nutrition for DM patients because they can make various cakes and snacks with a low glycemic index.

Abstract

Breast and cervical cancer constitute the two most prevalent cancer types globally, with a disproportionately high mortality rate among women. While cervical cancer ranks eighth in terms of incidence, it remains a significant public health concern. A common challenge is the community’s delay in seeking healthcare attributed to a dearth of information, consequently leading to delayed treatment. The Pinrang Regency Health Department and the Family Empowerment and Welfare Team (TP-PKK) of South Sulawesi identified a high incidence of breast and cervical cancer among women in the Pinrang region. A primary obstacle to addressing this issue is the absence of public awareness regarding breast and cervical cancer, including early warning signs, symptoms, and associated risks. This problem is compounded by the district’s lack of an anatomical pathology specialist, hindering public education efforts and diagnostic capabilities. The objective of this activity was to enhance awareness of early detection for these two gynecological cancers in order to reduce mortality and morbidity rates associated with cancer. The method comprised an educational session on breast and cervical cancer, practicing SADARI, attended by 145 participants, followed by Pap smear tests for 45 volunteers. Program effectiveness was evaluated through pretest and posttest. A Wilcoxon signed-rank test was conducted to compare pretest and posttest scores. The results revealed a highly significant increase in scores p = 0.000 (p<0.005), suggesting that the educational program was successful in improving participants’ knowledge. A significant proportion of participants (57.8%) reported undergoing a Pap smear for the first time, highlighting the need for enhanced awareness and knowledge-sharing efforts regarding early detection of cervical cancer. The Pinrang Regency Health Department and TP-PKK provided essential support and participation. The Institute for Research and Community Service (LPPM) funds this community service project. The project was executed under contract number 0031/UN.4.22/PM.01.01.2024.

Abstract

The Elderly is someone who is 60 years old or above and experiences various changes both physically, mentally, and socially. Meanwhile, Yogyakarta is the province with the largest number of elderly groups in Indonesia with a prevalence of 637,353 people as of December 2021. The prevalence of this large elderly group opens up greater opportunities for various problems in the elderly, one of which is psychological problems. This research aims to examine the effectiveness of reminiscence therapy utilizing local wisdom in reducing depression levels among the elderly in Budhi Dharma nursing home, Yogyakarta. In this research, participants are limited to 10 people with particular criteria and randomly assigned into two groups. They’re guided to do several activities during two days of therapy. Depression levels were measured using the Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS) before, after, and two weeks post-therapy. The result is analyzed with the Friedman Test of Repeated Measures, revealed a p-value of 0.273, indicating that the score differences were insignificant in depression levels across the measurement times. These findings reveal that the lack of significant changes happened due to the participants’ selection that was not screened based on their depression level. As a result, the participants were in good mental condition.

Abstract

The INDULA (Inovasi Daur Ulang Sampah/Waste Recycling Innovation) program for sustainable development in Mekarwangi Village was initiated to address the growing volume of waste and the community’s limited knowledge of waste management. These challenges negatively impacted the environment and public health, necessitating efforts to educate residents on the importance of recycling. The program employed a structured methodology encompassing preparation, implementation, and evaluation stages. Participants were selected using purposive sampling, focusing on individuals directly affected by the waste management issues. Data collection utilized pre-test and post-test instruments to assess program impact. The analysis revealed significant changes before and after program implementation. Initially, 75% of household waste in the village underwent no sorting, and only 20% of respondents had basic knowledge of recycling. The community also lacked recycling skills and access to markets for recycled products. Following the program, at least 80% of participants understood the importance of recycling and its practical applications. Housewives and youth began creating innovative products from waste, with 50 individuals trained to produce items of economic value. Recycled products were introduced to local markets and e-commerce platforms, leading to a 20% increase in local economic income within three months of training. Additionally, the village established a more structured waste management system, reducing landfill waste by up to 50%. This program demonstrated a measurable positive impact on community awareness, skill development, and local economic growth.

Abstract

This community engagement activity aimed to develop a mini bank website, m-EduPayment, integrated with the iPaymu payment gateway as an Application Programming Interface (API). The project was implemented at SMK Negeri 7 Bandar Lampung. System development followed the Personal Extreme Programming (PXP) method, which included the stages of Requirements, Planning, Iteration Initialization, Design, Implementation, and System Testing. PXP, a variant of Extreme Programming, was specifically adapted for individual developers. The activity involved 31 respondents, consisting of 10th and 11th-grade students, who evaluated the system using the System Usability Scale (SUS) to measure its usability. Interviews with teachers (superadmins) and student administrators were also conducted to identify initial requirements and gather feedback on the system design. Data analysis utilized a Likert scale, where respondents rated various system aspects on a scale from 1 (strongly disagree) to 5 (strongly agree). SUS scores were calculated using standard formulas to determine a final score, which was then classified into usability categories. The average SUS score was 91, falling under the "Excellent" category (Grade A). The development of the mini bank website introduced new features, including online payment services for tuition fees (SPP), waste banks, and savings. System testing achieved a 99% functional success rate, demonstrating the platform’s high usability in the school environment. Respondents provided overwhelmingly positive feedback, affirming the successful implementation and functionality of the website.

Abstract

Our community engagement (CE) activity aimed to increase productivity in the Nile tilapia pond managed by POKDAKAN Berkah 2 in Turunrejo Village, Kendal Regency. This was achieved through carrying capacity engineering of ponds, mechanization of facilities, probiotic application, and enhancing the knowledge and skills of cultivators in managing pond water quality to meet the Indonesian National Standard (SNI) for tilapia rearing. Knowledge and skills improvement was facilitated through counseling sessions and technical assistance provided during the Nile tilapia rearing activities at Dempond Berkah 2. The community service team provided support by assisting with the procurement of two water pumps and pump holders, constructing inlet and discharge sluices, supplying 20,000 Nile tilapia fry measuring 2–3 cm, and providing factory feed. Fish stocking was conducted in the morning under optimal conditions: water salinity of 8–10 o/oo, neutral pH, and dissolved oxygen levels exceeding 3 mg/L. Factory feeding began on the 15th day after the fry were released into the pond. The results indicated that the fish grew well due to water quality management that met the standards for tilapia maintenance. This success was attributed to effective management of water and feed quality, as well as the provision of adequate cultivation facilities and infrastructure. Pond productivity exceeded the target of 1.5 tons, contributing to increased income for the farming community and improved knowledge and competence of fish farmers in Good Fish Farming Practices (CBIB).

Abstract

To minimize forestry sector greenhouse gas emissions by 2030, Indonesia needs stakeholder participation, especially youth. The AmericanIndonesian Scholarship Program Alumni Association (ALPHA-I) initiated the "Local Heroes for Forest Protection" program to include local adolescents in climate action. During 2023-2024, 149 direct participants from three provinces (Sulawesi Tenggara, Papua Barat, and Nusa Tenggara Timur) contributed to the conservation of approximately 12.5 hectares of forest, surpassing our target area, by planting indigenous trees and indirectly impacting around 4,500 individuals through both online and on-site campaigns. The program encompassed capacity-building training, sustainability seminars, field activities, and displays via a talk-show festival on climate change, which garnered favorable comments. Despite the SWOT analysis indicating that all three regions have analogous obstacles and opportunities in program implementation, they effectively formulated action plans for forthcoming activities. Our program is anticipated to persist for three years, broadening its effects to more regions while fostering partnerships with various local and national organizations.

Abstract

Dairy goat farming is a livestock system in which all goat-derived products, including milk, meat, urine, and feces, can be utilized. At Pure Fresh Dairy Farm, more than 120 dairy goats produced a significant amount of milk. However, the large goat population also generated substantial amounts of feces. Prior to this initiative, there had been no utilization or processing of goat feces using anaerobic technology to produce organic fertilizer or generate additional farm income. This community service program aimed to provide knowledge and training to Pure Fresh on producing organic fertilizer from dairy goat feces using the anaerobic method and enhancing its market value through e-commerce. The organic fertilizer was produced using dairy goat feces combined with dolomite lime, molasses, and EM4. The addition of these components accelerated the fermentation process, enhanced efficiency, and resulted in a higherquality fertilizer with a more balanced nutrient composition, thereby improving soil conditions. The fertilizer products were marketed to supplement Pure Fresh’s income, while a portion was allocated for community agricultural use. The final product was packaged in transparent plastic bags weighing 2 kg, branded as ‘PO-GOAT’. The initial production yielded 54 kg, which was sold at IDR10,000 per 2 kg and was planned to be marketed through e-commerce.

Abstract

Indonesia’s commitment to addressing climate change was declared at the 27th Conference of the Parties (COP) in 2021, with its Intended Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC) pledging to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 31.89% (unconditional) and 43.2% (conditional) by 2030. The forestry sector played a vital role by accelerating forest cover through restoration and rehabilitation programs. KHDTK DIKLATHUT UGM (KDU) consistently organized such programs by planting various species. To fulfill seedling needs, local communities were involved through community-based nursery initiatives. The establishment of the community-based nursery program aimed to: (1) encourage community participation around the forest to support the success of the KHDTK DIKLATHUT UGM forest restoration and rehabilitation program, (2) develop competent local community cadres skilled in producing high-quality seedlings for plantation, and (3) provide additional job opportunities and increase income for the local community. Three targeted villages were located in Ngawi: Pitu, Kalang, and Nglebak. The methods used in this program included: (1) focus group discussions (FGDs), (2) field observation and surveys, (3) education and training, and (4) monitoring and evaluation. The results showed that 12 local communities had established community-based nurseries with various species being propagated. The program also demonstrated good financial feasibility, generating a profit of IDR69,272,273 or approximately IDR289 per seedling. However, seedling handling and health maintenance remained challenging. Therefore, further education and training could be initiated to improve the local community’s knowledge and skills.
