So far, the community has not gotten any intense attention or understanding about discovering alternate solutions that can be applied to trash, notably domestic organic waste. Bokashi fertiliser is an organic fertiliser created from the fermentation of organic resources, such as compost, and utilises microorganisms like bacteria or fermenting fungus. The outcome is a solid fertiliser that includes more nutrients, both macro and micro, which are ready to be taken by plant roots. The purpose of the fertiliser activity is to provide training and build community skills in processing organic materials from home garbage. The programme also seeks to introduce the community to fermentation technology for the disposal of organic waste. The effort empowers the community, particularly farmers, to cultivate an inventive mentality in solving environmental concerns, which covers activities such as mentoring, group involvement, and innovation. The results of this analysis have a favourable impact on the knowledge and abilities of the farming community regarding the use of domestic organic waste. The findings of the evaluation of the questionnaire suggested that participants felt the benefits of the activity, exhibited curiosity, received new knowledge, and were willing to implement it in their daily life</p> Rappi Ahmad Ajini Copyright (c) 2023 Rappi Ahmad Ajini https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 2023-08-01 2023-08-01 2 3 06 11 Employment of Rainwater Infiltration Wells for Flood Mitigation https://jurnal.akseprin.org/index.php/CSAJ/article/view/105 <p>This region holds considerable attraction for tourists. The extensive expansion of tourist attractions renders this hamlet susceptible to waterlogging during the rainy season, attributable to insufficient water infiltration, resulting in frequent occurrences of waterlogging. The community also encounters the issue of inadequate management of spring water supplies. The approach we proposed involved the implementation of infiltration wells. This well serves as a receptacle for rainfall that either descends or flows from upstream and is then collected into a reservoir (SPAH). The Rainwater Harvesting System (SPAH) is a method for utilizing rainwater for everyday requirements. The fundamental premise is that the water entering the infiltration well is channeled to the reservoir. This initiative involves the establishment of infiltration wells to facilitate the acquisition of clean water for communities while mitigating concerns of waterlogging during the rainy season. We aim to assist the community by providing a complimentary clean water supply.</p> Patti Rajunai Surapaninn Loh Copyright (c) 2023 Patti Rajunai, Surapaninn Loh https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 2023-08-01 2023-08-01 2 3 12 15 Youth Entrepreneurship for the Advancement of Entrepreneurial Potential https://jurnal.akseprin.org/index.php/CSAJ/article/view/104 <p>Programs developed or established by high school education levels to cultivate young entrepreneurs that comprehend entrepreneurship and possess the character and mindset of an entrepreneur. Moreover, the issue stemming from the establishment of this program is the deficiency of qualified educators who comprehend and can effectively implement entrepreneurship education. This issue presents universities with opportunities to actively contribute to the development of the younger generation's entrepreneurial character and mindset while also fostering a comprehensive and authentic understanding of entrepreneurship through community service. This training and mentorship will occur 14 times over the 7-month learning period. Two training sessions will be conducted at the conclusion of each week every month. This service will provide students with new insights for generating company ideas, considering multiple dimensions, including local wisdom, marketing, and customer perspectives. Furthermore, we have equipped students with the expertise to administer market analysis questionnaires, with the goal of understanding customer behavior in relation to their business concepts</p> Agirr Laipuut Lopitf Copyright (c) 2023 Agirr Laipuut Lopitf https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 2023-08-01 2023-08-01 2 3 16 21 The dissemination of HIV/AIDS Risks in the Project Context https://jurnal.akseprin.org/index.php/CSAJ/article/view/103 <p>This initiative aimed to educate project staff, including local inhabitants of the Karanganyar region, about HIV/AIDS within the project context and strategies for its prevention and management. This community service contributes to its scientific domain, specifically the K3 Project, to assist the K3 programme. In 2021, there were 72 HIV cases reported in the Karanganyar district, with 53 cases in men and 19 cases in women. Given the significant prevalence of HIV in this area, awareness initiatives about HIV/AIDS are conducted near the dam project to clarify prevention activities, particularly targeting local project personnel. We conduct community service initiatives transparently within the project framework to spread awareness about HIV/AIDS, its characteristics, and preventive measures. Additionally, we facilitate a Q&amp;A session with project personnel about HIV/AIDS. The outcome of implementing and periodically assessing community service initiatives involves distributing questionnaires following focus group discussions to ascertain the efficacy of HIV/AIDS awareness activities within the project context</p> Lootionof Paootfu Sainanti Waitu Raisaduut Tafhlu Copyright (c) 2023 Lootionof Paootfu, Sainanti Waitu , Raisaduut Tafhlu https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 2024-08-14 2024-08-14 2 3 31 40 Implementation of the Use of Digital Marketing as a Strategy to Strengthen Technopreneurship Resources https://jurnal.akseprin.org/index.php/CSAJ/article/view/72 <p>Micro enterprises have a real contribution in economic growth in every region. It is necessary to strengthen the competence of business resources in the use of digital technology as an effort to grow technopreneurship, in the face of global competitiveness demands. To develop these competencies, skills, expertise, innovation and creativity are needed in the use of digital marketing platforms. However, there are still business actors who are not adaptive to these competencies. Community Service activities are expected to provide solutions to these problems in the form of skills counseling activities for the use of various digital marketing platforms with offline exposure, discussion and question and answer methods as well as simulations. Based on the results of the evaluation, the activity went well and the training material was in accordance with work needs. The follow-up needs a sustainability program with assistance to build technopreneurship and togetherness between business communities through the media of the Information/Communication Forum</p> Victor Oghenenyerovwome Iki Copyright (c) 2024 Victor Oghenenyerovwome Iki https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 2024-07-22 2024-07-22 2 3 01 07 Mitigation of Gastrointestinal Disorders Through Community Health Education https://jurnal.akseprin.org/index.php/CSAJ/article/view/71 <p>Dyspepsia is a non-communicable condition that occurs globally, not solely in Indonesia. Dyspepsia is a syndrome characterised by pain or discomfort associated with heartburn, bloating, nausea, vomiting, belching, rapid satiety, and a sensation of fullness. This community service seeks to enhance awareness and perceptions among the regional community. The strategy is implemented to avoid dyspepsia via health counselling and the dissemination of informational pamphlets, which facilitate the adoption of healthy living practices through the maintenance of a proper diet and lifestyle. Students and a group of lecturers carried out this community service initiative. The outcome of community service is that the community comprehends dyspepsia and its prevention. The completion of this community service activity indicates a rise in community knowledge and attitudes. The majority of participants engaged in counselling activities by attentively considering the provided material and enquiring for further clarification when desired</p> Liu Han Li Shilan Re Copyright (c) 2023 Liu Han Li, Shilan Re https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 2023-12-31 2023-12-31 2 3 09 12 We Use Infusions of Lemon and Lemongrass to Maintain Endurance https://jurnal.akseprin.org/index.php/CSAJ/article/view/70 <p>Climate change, along with the post-pandemic scenario, renders the population's immune systems susceptible to different infections. Immunity can be sustained by hygiene, physical activity, and a balanced diet. Another method to sustain immunity is to ingest traditional herbal items or herbal remedies. A traditional beverage that is easy to prepare and uses readily available ingredients in the community is lemongrass stew. Lemons (Citrus lemons) possess antioxidant properties due to their vitamin C content, whilst lemongrass (Cymbopogon nardus L.) contains citral and geranial advantageous chemicals as anti-inflammatories. This workshop with participants aims to impart knowledge and insights regarding the advantages of lemongrass lemon drink and its preparation, which involves thoroughly washing the ingredients, boiling them with tamarind sugar and additional spices such as cinnamon and ginger, and subsequently filtering the mixture to produce a beverage that supports immune health. Participants exhibited considerable enthusiasm due to the activity's pertinent issue, with the expectation that it would enhance their comprehension of immunity maintenance, particularly throughout the transitional season and post-pandemic period. The conducted activities indicate that, based on pre- and post-event test results, comprehension of the workshop material has improved to 95%.</p> Santo Marko Rapis Merokos Bentali Copyright (c) 2023 Santo Marko Rapis, Merokos Bentali https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 2023-12-31 2023-12-31 2 3 13 17 Digital Marketing in Enhancing the Commercial Value of Natural Frond Crafts https://jurnal.akseprin.org/index.php/CSAJ/article/view/69 <p>The study aims to promote products made by artisans who use natural fibers within the community. The analysis of the business canvas model revealed that the primary challenge encountered by craftspeople was the difficulty in establishing direct access to consumers. Consequently, artists receive diverse training to effectively market products and reach consumers by utilizing digital marketing via social media platforms (Facebook and Instagram) and business website development. The training empowers them to market handcrafted products to both local and national clients. Through digital marketing, they can extend their reach to promote their products internationally</p> Oterlo Seropi Copyright (c) 2023 Oterlo Seropi https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 2023-12-31 2023-12-31 2 3 18 24 Electrical Power Potential and Installation of Picohydro Turbine-Generator https://jurnal.akseprin.org/index.php/CSAJ/article/view/68 <p>The 2014 National Energy Policy and the 2017 National Energy General Plan represent the government's dedication to advancing new and renewable energy capabilities. The policy aims to optimize the utilization of clean and renewable energy sources, particularly hydropower. This community service initiative aims to harness hydropower by assessing its electrical potential and developing mechanical electrical components to convert water's energy into electricity. The activity will take place in the village, utilizing one of the various altitudes of the river flow. The measurements conducted yielded an elevation of 1 meter and a discharge of 0.1 m³/s, resulting in a potential electrical power of around 600 watts. The generating facility selects generators and manufactures turbines based on the assessment of power potential. The employed methods are (1) quantifying the river's flow, (2) assessing the height of the fall (head) at the powerhouse site, (3) determining the potential for electric power, (4) fabricating turbines, and (5) placing turbine-generators within the powerhouse. The outcomes of this endeavor include the establishment of a power plant, the fabrication of turbines, and the installation of turbine-generators utilizing hydropower potential. The installation of turbine generators in this power plant represents the initial phase, which will be followed by the subsequent phase involving the building of water channel dams, penstocks, and electricity distribution for street lighting.</p> Orrsani Rateeila Copyright (c) 2023 Orrsani Rateeila https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 2023-12-31 2023-12-31 2 3 25 31 Instruction on the Appropriate Utilisation of Antibiotics to Safeguard the Community Against the Threat of Resistance https://jurnal.akseprin.org/index.php/CSAJ/article/view/67 <p>Irrational drug utilisation has emerged as a global issue, with around 50% of medications<br />being prescribed, distributed, marketed, and utilised incorrectly by patients. The primary<br />concern with the irrational use of medications pertains to the inappropriate application of<br />antibiotics, which includes unsuitable drug types, incorrect dosages, prolonged administration,<br />and excessive usage in non-bacterial infections. This syndrome induces antibiotic resistance.<br />Individuals frequently use various antibiotics to address non-infectious ailments such as<br />coughs, influenza, and fevers without a physician's prescription, and these medications are<br />readily available at certain health institutions that lack comprehension of the requirements. This<br />initiative aims to inform the public about the hazards associated with the incorrect use of<br />antibiotics. This community outreach initiative involved counselling and video screenings<br />around antibiotic usage in DAGUSIBU. We evaluated the activity's success by administering<br />pretests and distributing posters to the participating community. We determined the overall<br />percentage of individuals who could accurately answer questions. The data processing results<br />indicate a rise in public comprehension and awareness of antibiotic resistance following<br />counselling sessions.</p> Zorosisti Racohet Shirgidi Sarakop Copyright (c) 2024 Zorosisti Racohet , Shirgidi Sarakop https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 2024-01-22 2024-01-22 2 3 09 12 Employing Orange Peel Residue to Produce Eco-Enzymes https://jurnal.akseprin.org/index.php/CSAJ/article/view/66 <p>Indonesia's substantial population, coupled with a rapid growth rate, has led to a rise in garbage generation, with the capital city producing 3.1 million tons of waste in 2023, predominantly consisting of organic waste. In 2023, East Jakarta generated the highest trash volume, totaling 844,252 tons annually. This is undoubtedly a responsibility for all stakeholders, from the government level to the family level. One initiative to diminish waste volume involves converting it into new goods, such as eco-enzymes. The community empowerment method, implemented through training, constitutes a public education initiative in waste management aimed at addressing the issue of organic waste. The training occurred in May 2023. The service results indicate that the training on eco-enzyme production in Pinang Ranti Village, aimed at utilizing household organic waste, was successful, yielding orange peel eco-enzyme products. The community exhibited considerable enthusiasm throughout the activities, and participants subsequently felt motivated to process organic waste. This activity is anticipated to be conducted continually and consistently by relevant stakeholders, particularly the government at both national and local levels</p> Sharif Rahmad Ali Copyright (c) 2024 Sharif Rahmad Ali https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 2024-01-22 2024-01-22 2 3 13 18 Education on Herbal Antibacterial Properties of Moringa and Moringa Tea Training https://jurnal.akseprin.org/index.php/CSAJ/article/view/65 <p>Bacterial infections and drug resistance constitute significant health issues in Indonesia. The general lack of awareness regarding the proper use of antibiotics is one of the main causes. Therefore, the Community Service team from the Health Analyst Study Program conducted an activity titled "Education and Dissemination of Moringa Research Results as a Herbal Antibacterial and Training on Making Moringa Tea for Villagers." This activity aims to increase public knowledge and skills about the prevention and treatment of bacterial diseases using moringa herbal medicine. The methods employed for this activity include seminars and training sessions. The seminar discussed the potential of moringa extract as an antibacterial based on the results of the team's research and its wise application. The training discusses how to make moringa tea and its benefits as an alternative treatment. Educational brochures were also distributed to the participants of the activity. The results of the activity indicated that there was an increase in public understanding of moringa as an herbal antibiotic and the wise use of antibiotics, as well as an increase in people's skills in making moringa tea. This activity is expected to have a positive impact on the health of the village community. In addition, this activity is also in line with the concept and supports the achievement of IKU (the main performance indicator of higher education) by providing an off-campus learning experience for students and involving lecturers in community service activities</p> Zehklafh Lattenni Allloptino Latnhi Copyright (c) 2024 Zehklafh Lattenni, Allloptino Latnhi https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 2024-01-22 2024-01-22 2 3 19 26 Social Problems Become a Challenge for Strengthening Community Character through the Implementation of Village Critical Thinking https://jurnal.akseprin.org/index.php/CSAJ/article/view/64 <p>Social problems that occur among young people in the modern era, especially in the midst of the rapid development of globalization, certainly have a big impact on the level of morality and character formation of the nation's young generation. This is evidenced by how many social problems are found in the midst of society from villages to cities, from remote to all-around. Many of the causes are due to the mindset and character education that are still minimal in the community. One of these phenomena was found in the Village Area. The way to overcome the problems that occur is by providing assistance through socialization to the younger generation through community institutions and activities. Data was obtained from observations and interviews with competent parties, socialization involving students from several institutions and village youth who are members of existing community groups.</p> Luh Kinga Li Copyright (c) 2024 Luh Kinga Li https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 2024-01-22 2024-01-22 2 3 27 33
