Abstract

This community service activity aimed to improve primary school students’ knowledge regarding environmental chemical exposure and kidney health while introducing a simple renal screening approach as an educational awareness tool. The program was conducted in 2023 at Sekolah Dasar Negeri 6 Kendari and involved 30 grade 5 and grade 6 students selected using accidental sampling. The activities consisted of interactive, age-appropriate education sessions and preliminary screening using urine protein dipstick testing, together with serum urea and creatinine measurements. Knowledge scores increased from a mean of 3.13 (SD 1.93) before the education sessions to 8.83 (SD 1.02) after the sessions (p < 0.001), indicating substantial short-term improvement in understanding. Most participants had negative urine protein findings, with a small proportion showing low-level positivity, whereas biochemical values were generally within expected ranges. The screening results are presented descriptively to support awareness and should not be interpreted as a clinical diagnosis or as evidence of impaired renal function. Overall, the activity demonstrates the feasibility of integrating school-based health education with simple screening to promote awareness and engagement, providing a practical model for community health promotion while avoiding overstatement of clinical implications.

Abstract

The incidence of cancer in the elderly population is increasing as life expectancy rises. In addition, the number of elderly patients with cancer has increased and is expected to continue to grow with advances in cancer treatment. Cancer commonly develops in elderly people aged ≥55 years. This study aimed to improve the elderly’s knowledge of cancer prevention. This observational, cross-sectional study was conducted in RW 23, Brontokusuman Village, Yogyakarta, and targeted the elderly who were members of the Pemberdayaan Kesejahteraan Keluarga/PKK (Family Welfare Empowerment). This activity included a pretest, followed by education delivered through direct presentations, and a posttest to evaluate outcomes after the educational intervention. A sample of 34 participants was recruited using accidental sampling. Data were analyzed using univariate analysis as well as descriptive statistics through mean, median, mode, and percentage. The results showed that the most common age group was 51–60 years (44.12%). The mean knowledge score increased from 76.47 to 91.47, with a p value of 0.000, indicating a significant improvement in knowledge before and after cancer prevention education. The greatest increases in understanding were observed for questions 10, 8, 2, and 6, respectively. Several topics demonstrated a substantial improvement, particularly those that were previously poorly understood. Community-based education may be an effective strategy for cancer prevention, particularly for the elderly population.

Abstract

The Maggot Farming Information Dissemination Program in Neglasari Village aimed to help community members understand how to manage organic waste through black soldier fly (BSF) (Hermetia illucens) farming and how to utilize BSF products, including larvae as high-protein animal feed and cultivation residue as organic fertilizer. This approach not only benefits the environment but also creates local economic opportunities. The program included theory sessions, hands-on maggot-farming practice, and interactive discussions on farming techniques and marketing strategies. It was conducted on January 12, 2025, at Saung Giwangkara River Tubing and was attended by 15 participants, including farmers and village youth. The program received a positive response, as evidenced by the formation of a maggot-farming group committed to independently developing this business. In addition to reducing organic waste, this initiative also provides a new source of high-nutrition animal feed. However, several challenges were identified, including limited pre-event promotion, which resulted in fewer participants at the beginning of the activity, and limited participant knowledge of marketing strategies. Despite these constraints, with stronger support from the village government and business partners, the program has the potential to develop into a sustainable enterprise. To ensure success, further technical guidance, improved access to funding, and the establishment of a village business unit or a maggot-farming cooperative are needed. These steps will help maximize the benefits of maggot farming for the people of Neglasari Village.

Abstract

Waqf-based forests represent a sustainable forest management initiative that is expanding in Indonesia, integrating Islamic principles of waqf with forest management practices. Preliminary research indicated that communities surrounding Bogor Waqf Forest, one example of waqf-based forest implementation, have low income levels and expressed expectations for additional income-generating activities. This training aimed to prepare local communities around Bogor Waqf Forest to enhance sustainable ecotourism services, including hospitality and coffee service. This service-oriented capacity building was designed as a productive waqf strategy to strengthen community roles in developing sustainable ecotourism. The study applied a community-based training approach with post-test evaluation. The training comprised two sessions, namely (1) a hospitality and service excellence session and (2) a coffee training session. Based on post-test results, participants demonstrated improved knowledge and practical skills in hospitality, including receiving and serving guests, as well as in coffee preparation, including brewing and preparing several variations of coffee beverages for visitors. Overall, the training supports the productivity of waqf-based forests by equipping communities with competencies needed for community-based sustainable ecotourism.

Abstract

Expanding markets for Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises is crucial for increasing product sales. One of the main challenges these enterprises face is limited marketing reach. Based on preliminary observations and discussions with Poklahsar groups in Kendalbulur Village, specifically Poklahsar Mina Sumber Pangan and Poklahsar Patin Condong Raos, which produce processed catfish-based products, training in digital marketing strategies was needed. To improve product competitiveness and broaden market reach to the national level, digital marketing represents a highly promising approach. This study aimed to deliver training for Poklahsar on the role of digital marketing in expanding market reach and strengthening promotional activities. The training used lectures and hands on practice, with Instagram as the primary digital marketing platform. It included educational sessions on digital marketing and step by step tutorials on how to create and manage Instagram accounts effectively. The training is able to strengthen the capacity of these Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises, support business development, expand market access, and enhance product competitiveness.
