Abstract

The prevalence of breast cancer in Indonesia is still increasing. Data from the Global Cancer Observatory shows that the most common cancer case in Indonesia is breast cancer. Meanwhile, the incidence of breast and cervical cancer in Bontang City reaches 30% of the overall cancer data in Bontang (Akurasi.id, 2024). Therefore, there is a need for a health promotion campaign and breast cancer prevention using simple communication methods. This program aimed to provide education to health cadres (PKK) in three sub-districts of Bontang, targeting 100 participants. Five sub-districts were selected from each of the three sub-districts, with seven participants sampled from 10 sub-districts and six participants sampled from five sub-districts. Participants were selected using purposive sampling. The program employed a participatory research approach based on community empowerment, using the TPS (Transactional, Precise, and Skilled) communication model. The program was conducted in three stages. In the first stage, theoretical information related to breast cancer and its prevention was provided, along with 100 questions and answers shared online beforehand. The second stage involved practicing breast self-examination (SADARI). The third stage combined theory and practice, incorporatingeducational strategies through games and evaluations. The program results showed that 83% of participants agreed that knowledge about breast cancer and its prevention was necessary. The program successfully improved the knowledge and attitudes of PKK/health cadres through an interactive, participatory approach. Although there were barriers related to participant agility, support from trained organizers proved effective in overcoming them. These findings confirm the importance of health education that emphasizes two-way communication and breast cancer prevention.

Abstract

Umbilical cord infections can be prevented by caring for the umbilical cord properly. The data regarding proper and correct umbilical cord care of newborn babies by mothers in North Sumatra Province is limited. Hence, this community service aimed to determine the proportion of knowledge in umbilical cord care for newborn babies using the open-dry cord care method. Thew community service project was held on August 24, 2023, in Pematang Siantar City, North Sumatra Province. In this activity, we provided counseling on the open-dry cord care method for umbilical cord care by presentation and discussion using modules, posters, and leaflets. We used a pre-test and post-test questionnaire to assess the knowledge level of health workers and mothers. Participant demographic data and results are presented in the form of proportion data. This counseling was attended by 150 participants consisting of 52 health workers and 98 mothers. Before the counseling, 39 health workers and 93 mothers did not know how to take care of the umbilical cord properly. After the counseling, the knowledge of umbilical cord care using the open-dry cord method increased by 15.4% for health workers and 24.5% for mothers. Based on the results, over 80% of participants were found to have had a satisfactory level of knowledge about umbilical cord care after the counseling session. This community service program should be conducted regularly to further enhance the knowledge of health workers and mothers on proper umbilical cord care.

Abstract

Home garden productivity can be enhanced by managing plant diversity, optimizing stand arrangements, and selecting species suited to local land conditions. Avocado trees, in particular, have strong potential to thrive in the karst regions of Karangasem Village, Paliyan, Gunungkidul. Some trees planted spottily by local people in their home garden have been able to bear fruit. The avocado trees have also been grown intensively in the Semanu District, adjacent to Paliyan District. These factors indicate that avocado trees are well-adapted to the local area. To promote optimal growth, stand management should incorporate appropriate silvicultural practices. The objective of this community service program was to increase the tree species diversification of home gardens in Karangasem Village by planting avocado trees by assisting the Forest Farmer Group of Lestari Mulyo, as a potential driving group to the community. In the future, local communities can hopefully establish avocados as a new commodity to help boost household incomes.

Abstract

The causes of shipping accidents, as identified by the KNKT investigation, included technical, weather, and human factors. As a result, community empowerment training was conducted in 2023 for loaders of inland waterway transport vessels Class I. This training aimed to enhance participants’ knowledge, insight, and skills regarding loading arrangements and stability testing of inland waterway vessels. The study employed a quantitative descriptive method using primary data from evaluations, including pretests and posttests administered to 30 training participants. The analysis technique utilized was the paired t-test. Results obtained through the Wilcoxon Matched Pair test indicated a significant difference between pretest and posttest scores, leading to the conclusion that participants’ knowledge improved after completing the training. The findings revealed that, out of 30 training participants, only 2 experienced a decrease in scores. Conversely, 28 participants showed positive results (positive rankings), indicating an increase in scores. The average pretest score was 73.67, which increased to an average posttest score of 92.50 following the training. These results were further supported by the significant difference shown in the paired t-test analysis. In conclusion, there was a significant improvement in participants’ knowledge after the training. It is recommended that the program be expanded to include more participants to ensure that the broader community, particularly ship operators, benefits from increased knowledge of shipping safety and proper ship loading practices.

Abstract

One of the ecological challenges in managing conservation areas is the colonization and establishment of alien and/or native plant species, especially after forest disturbances. The capacity stakeholders to determine the invasiveness risk of these plant species groups and then management strategies to monitor changes in vegetation structure and species composition is critical. The community engagement program aims to improve the capacity of conservation area stakeholders to identify plant species, including invasive species, and assess the risk of invasive species. Focus group discussion (FGD) were conducted online and offline and targeted stakeholders of the Natural Resources Conservation Agency (Balai Konservasi Sumber Daya Alam–BKSDA) of Central Java Province. Three FGD sessions were held on the topics: (1) forest monitoring and invasion ecology, (2) plant species identification and invasive species monitoring techniques, and (3) vegetation and invasiveness risk analysis. During the discussion, target groups shared ideas and lessons learned related to managing invasive species in the field. The results showed a significant increase in the capacity of the target group (p=4.546e-09), as the average pretest score was 56.25 ± 13.68 compared to the average posttest score of 75.70 ± 20.27. The target group understands the definition of an invasive (alien) species, the factors that determine the success of this species invasion, and the positive and negative contributions alien species to the newly established ecosystem. Some gaps that need to be addressed relate to methods and criteria for identifying species invasiveness in invasive species risk analysis. As a follow-up, a practical training on invasive (alien) species risk analysis was conducted at different occasion and funding sources.

Abstract

The recent application of palm empty fruit bunches as solid waste directly on soil or as organic fertilizer has enhanced palm farms. Moreover, the co-products of this palm oil mill constitute a dependable metric for assessing mill processing performance, specifically regarding quantity and weight. The quantity of palm empty fruit bunches is usually ascertained through manual counting using a hand counter during processing. The imprecision in calculating palm empty fruit bunches is a limitation of this method, as operators sometimes perform erroneous calculations, overlook quantities, and produce contradictory results for mill management. To address this issue, the sector requires enhanced execution of a monitoring and counting system methodology. The aim of this community service project is to create an empty fruit bunches count station using an IoTbased palm solid waste counting system for use in palm mills. The Ministry of Industry - Politeknik Teknologi Kimia Industri (PTKI) Medan will engage in and oversee the advancement of Industry 4.0 within the industrial sector. The initiative was executed at Tanah Gambus Estate in Batubara Regency, North Sumatra. Assistance was provided by a palm mill partner associated with PT. Socfin Indonesia. The implementation of the empty fruit bunches palm oil counting system was conducted efficiently, facilitating optimal operations, real–time online monitoring, uninterrupted functionality exceeding 24 hours daily, swift assessment of the empty fruit bunches volume, immediate identification of traditional counting inaccuracies by operators and management, and its station provides benefits to the palm industry.
