Illegal logging is one of the leading causes of environmental degradation, triggering natural disasters such as floods, landslides, and droughts. Children of Generation Alpha, who are still in the cognitive development stage, are considered vulnerable due to their limited understanding and preparedness for such disasters. This community service program aimed to enhance elementary school students’ awareness and knowledge of disaster mitigation through educational media in the form of printed comics. The activity was conducted by the KKN Team of Universitas Ivet Semarang at SDN Plalangan 02, involving 24 students from grades 3 and 4. The procedure consisted of preliminary observation to assess school needs, comic development on the theme of illegal logging-related disaster mitigation, delivery of the material through comic reading sessions, interactive discussions, and evaluation through pretest and posttest. The pretest results showed that most students were in the "moderate" knowledge category (45.8%). After the intervention, 75% of students reached the "good" category. The Wilcoxon test yielded a significance value of p = 0.001 (p < 0.05), indicating a statistically significant difference in students’ knowledge before and after the intervention. Printed comics proved effective in conveying complex disaster mitigation content in a visually engaging and narrative-driven format. The approach aligns with the characteristics of Generation Alpha, who are highly responsive to visual media. It is recommended that printed comics be further developed and integrated into disaster education programs in elementary schools, especially those located in disaster prone areas.

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a metabolic disorder that is increasingly prevalent among the productive-age population and can significantly impair quality of life, particularly due to its progressive nature and often asymptomatic presentation in the early stages. Routine assessments of kidney function—such as estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and serum creatinine levels—are essential for the early detection of kidney impairment. The Community Service Program (PKM) conducted in Grogol Village aimed to raise public awareness regarding the importance of early screening for kidney dysfunction. Among the 71 participants involved in the activity, 9 individuals (12.68%) had elevated serum creatinine levels, 4 individuals (5.63%) showed evidence of stage 3a kidney function decline, and 31 individuals (43.66%) were identified with stage 2 kidney function decline. Only 36 participants (50.7%) had normal kidney function. These results underscore the necessity of early detection efforts to prevent the progression of CKD and to promote sustained public awareness on the importance of maintaining kidney and metabolic health.   Keywords: Chronic Kidney Disease, Creatinine, eGFR, Early Detection, Productive Age

Handling drug abuse is one of the main focuses in the Prevention and Eradication of Drug Abuse and Illicit Trafficking (P4GN) efforts in Indonesia. In this context, medical and social rehabilitation plays an important role as a recovery effort for addicts to return to optimal functioning in society. This community service activity uses a qualitative approach with a combination of observation, interview, and digital-based direct intervention methods in handling medical and social rehabilitation for drug abusers. This community service activity successfully implemented a digital-based medical and social rehabilitation strategy in supporting the P4GN program with a smart power approach. A web-based information system and mobile application designed to facilitate registration, monitoring, and mentoring of rehabilitation patients were successfully developed. This system provides easy access to information for the community and drug abusers to register and obtain rehabilitation services efficiently without having to come directly to the rehabilitation facility. The digital rehabilitation system is integrated with national electronic medical record platforms (such as SIRENA and the Ministry of Health's SATU SEHAT service), thus facilitating coordination between institutions and ensuring continuous monitoring of client health during and after the rehabilitation period. This community service activity successfully demonstrated that the handling of medical and social rehabilitation in a digital-based P4GN strategy with a smart power approach is an effective solution in an effort to realize a drug-free society. The smart power approach that integrates hard power (law enforcement) and soft power (prevention, community empowerment, and rehabilitation) with the support of digital information technology can improve the accessibility, effectiveness, and quality of rehabilitation services.
