The prevalence of hypertension in Jambi City has continued to increase over the past five years, including in the Simpang Kawat Community Health Center (Puskesmas Simpang Kawat). Meanwhile, the cost of hypertension care and treatment for the community is relatively high, especially if complications arise and are not covered by insurance, which can lead to catastrophic expenses that weaken households' economic conditions. This community service activity aims to provide education and outreach regarding hypertension and its impact on healthcare costs. Thirty people with hypertension in the Simpang Kawat Community Health Center (Puskesmas Simpang Kawat) participated in the activity. The core activities included providing information about hypertension and its consequences on healthcare costs, anti-hypertension exercises, outreach regarding the risk of catastrophic expenses, and explanations of various government support programs. The results showed that 80% of participants experienced a significant increase in knowledge, and there was a difference in knowledge levels between before and after the implementation of the Community Health Center (PPM) (p=0.000). The government and the Community Health Center are recommended to strengthen campaign efforts to encourage the community to adopt a healthy lifestyle and actively participate in health programs that can help reduce healthcare costs and avoid catastrophic expenses

Micro-Hydro Power Plant (MHPP) is a renewable energy solution suitable for remote rural areas with river flow availability. This study was carried out in Kampung 17, Batulawang Village, West Java, through the Community Service Program of HMM ITPLN, by designing and implementing a simplified MHPP system. The analysis indicates a hydraulic power potential of 1.511 kW with an effective head of 3.08 m and a discharge of 0.005 m³/s. Of this potential, the maximum utilized power reached 1.108 kW, equivalent to 73.32% of hydraulic energy utilization. The system is capable of producing approximately 26.6 kWh per day or around 798 kWh per month, matching the total demand of 12 households and one mosque in Kampung 17. If this demand were supplied by the national grid (PLN) under the R-1/TR 1300 VA category at Rp1,444.70 per kWh, the monthly cost would amount to approximately Rp1,152,870. Hence, the MHPP enables annual savings of around Rp13.8 million while ensuring local energy independence

Food waste generated from the household sector is one of the largest contributors to environmental degradation in Indonesia. Food waste generated from the household sector is one of the main contributors to the increasing volume of organic waste in Indonesia. This issue not only creates social and economic problems but also poses a serious threat to environmental sustainability. This study aims to analyze the contribution of household food waste to environmental degradation and to review sustainable management strategies. This study employs a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method guided by the PRISMA 2020 Statement to review relevant national research conducted during the period 2018-2025. The results of the literature selection show that the impacts of household food waste on environmental sustainability can be categorized into three main dimensions: (1) ecological impacts, including pollution and the increase of greenhouse gas emissions; (2) resource impacts, such as the wastage of energy, water, and land; and (3) social-environmental impacts, including the increasing burden of regional waste management and the declining quality of life for communities living near landfills. The findings emphasize that the management of household food waste plays a crucial role in achieving environmental sustainability, particularly in supporting the attainment of Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 12, which focuses on responsible consumption and production. Therefore, it is necessary to implement strategies of reduction, reuse, and recycling of food waste at the household level to minimize the negative impacts on environmental sustainability in Indonesia.

Pneumonia is one of the leading causes of mortality in children under five, especially those living in households with active smokers. This study aims to determine the risk of pneumonia in toddlers from smoking families in the working area of Meuraxa Public Health Center, Banda Aceh City. The research used a case-control design with 33 respondents, consisting of 11 cases (toddlers with pneumonia) and 22 controls (toddlers without pneumonia). Data collection was conducted through a structured questionnaire and analyzed using the chi-square test. The findings revealed that the prevalence of pneumonia among toddlers from smoking households was 33.3%. There were significant associations between pneumonia incidence and several factors, including nutritional status (p = 0.024), immunization status (p = 0.034), exclusive breastfeeding (p = 0.027), parental smoking behavior inside the house (p = 0.009), and household ventilation (p = 0.017). Toddlers who were not exclusively breastfed, had poor nutritional status, incomplete immunization, poor air ventilation, and exposure to cigarette smoke at home were at higher risk of developing pneumonia. This study emphasizes the vital role of the family in creating a healthy, smoke-free home environment that supports children's well-being. Community-based interventions and educational programs are essential to prevent pneumonia and improve the quality of life of children, particularly in urban public health areas like Meuraxa.

Management of household waste in Final Disposal Sites (TPA) faces a serious problem, where most of the waste accumulates and is difficult to decompose due to its complex nature. This condition substantially inhibits natural decomposition processes and limits the effectiveness of recycling efforts. Pre-processing operations, such as sorting and crushing, which are still dominated by manual methods, are proven to be inefficient, high-risk, and require large allocations of land resources and manpower. Therefore, automated technological innovation is needed to facilitate the efficient separation of organic components from inorganic materials (packaging). This research was conducted to determine the design and structural strength analysis of a hammer mill type depackaging machine, carried out using Solidworks software. Structural analysis simulation utilizes Finite Element Analysis (FEA) to determine the structural strength of the machine. The specifications of the hammer mill type depackaging machine include a capacity of 3000 kg/hour, a hammer mill input power of 12 KW, and a rotational speed of 2500 rpm with a torque of 34.54 Nm. Meanwhile, the screw conveyor input power is 0.75 KW and the rotational speed is 20 rpm. The FEA simulation analysis results for the hammer mill type depackaging machine showed that the maximum Von Mises stress value recorded is 3,022×10^7   N⁄m^2 , the maximum displacement value measured is very minimal, namely 2,793×10^(-1)  mm, and the Factor of Safety (FOS) obtained is 8.3. This FOS value significantly exceeds the required minimum safety limit (>3), confirming that the machine design has optimal reliability, fatigue resistance, and structural integrity for operation under intensive working conditions at the TPA. The conclusion of this study indicates that the engineering design of this hammer mill type depackaging machine is safe and meets structural technical requirements to proceed to the implementation phase, potentially becoming a sustainable technological solution in improving the efficiency of waste pre-processing.

The increasing demand for sustainable energy solutions in rural areas has prompted the utilization of biogas and bio-slurry as alternative resources. This study aims to evaluate the economic feasibility of household-level biogas systems by integrating Cost-Benefit Analysis (CBA), Net Present Value (NPV), Benefit-Cost Ratio (BCR), and Undiscounted Payback Period (UPBP), complemented with sensitivity analysis. Primary data were collected from 16 households operating biogas systems, while secondary data supported the estimation of cost and benefit components. Results show that biogas adoption provides positive economic returns, with average NPV reaching Rp 12,749,000, BCR above 1.0, and UPBP within four years, indicating financial viability. Sensitivity analysis reveals that variations in LPG prices and livestock numbers significantly affect economic outcomes, demonstrating the importance of market and production factors in ensuring project sustainability. The findings conclude that household biogas systems are economically feasible and resilient under certain conditions. Future studies are suggested to expand the scope by incorporating environmental and social benefits,a s well as exploring scalability at the community level.

Farmer welfare is indicated by the level of purchasing power, which is calculated based on the ratio between the price index received from agricultural products and the price index paid for household consumption and production inputs. This study aims to analyze the internal and external factors influencing farmers’ welfare in Kutai Kartanegara Regency. The research data is primary and secondary data with a mixed method. The analysis was conducted using multiple linear regression to identify the factors that significantly affect farmers’ welfare. The results show that income, commodity prices, household consumption, and agricultural input costs are significant determinants of farmers’ welfare. Income and commodity prices have a positive effect, while agricultural input costs have a negative effect. The coefficient of determination (R²) values of 81.70% for the food crop subsector and 64.67% for the plantation subsector indicate that these variables explain a large portion of the variation in farmers’ welfare in the study area. Increased income increases welfare, but if consumption expenditure and input costs increase more than the increase in income, then farmer welfare will actually decrease. There is a need for policies to stabilize agricultural product prices, reduce production costs, and increase farmer productivity in Kutai Kartanegara Regency by strengthening market access, providing affordable inputs, and implementing technology and training so that agricultural products have added value and farmer welfare increases.

The use of ecoenzyme-based solutions (EE) is one innovation in supporting sustainable food security in drylands. This research and community service project was conducted in Putukrejo Village, Kalipare District, Malang Regency, with the aim of increasing the productivity of cassava and moringa plants while supporting stunting prevention. Ecoenzymes were obtained from the fermentation of household organic waste, brown sugar, and clean water fermented for three months. The solution was applied to cassava and moringa at a dose of 15 per tree dissolved in one liter of water, applied weekly. The results showed an increase in the vegetative growth of moringa and cassava compared to the control group. From a socio-economic perspective, this technology improves the community's skills in production and opens up business opportunities for cassava and moringa-based food products. These findings are in line with the achievement of SDGs 2 (Zero Hunger) and SDGs 12 (Responsible Consumption and Production).

Background: Malaria remains a significant public health issue, particularly in endemic areas such as West Nias Regency. Household-based prevention strategies, including the use of bed nets, repellents, and mosquito insecticides, are essential in reducing transmission. However, few local studies have comprehensively analyzed the effectiveness of these interventions. Objective: To determine the relationship between malaria prevention measures (bed net use, repellent use, and mosquito insecticide use) and malaria incidence in the working area of UPT Lahomi Public Health Center, West Nias Regency. Methods: This study employed a case-control design with a quantitative analytic approach. A total of 174 respondents were included, divided into case and control groups. Data were collected through questionnaires and Rapid Diagnostic Test (RDT) results, and analyzed using the Chi-square test and Odds Ratio calculations. Results: No significant relationship was found between malaria incidence and the use of bed nets (p=0.785) or repellents (p=1.000). However, the use of mosquito insecticides showed a statistically significant association with reduced malaria incidence (p=0.021), with a lower infection rate among users (25%) compared to non-users (42.7%). Conclusion: Among the three interventions studied, only the use of mosquito insecticides proved effective in reducing malaria risk in the working area of UPT Lahomi Public Health Center. Education and improved access to proven preventive methods are needed to curb malaria transmission in endemic regions.

In Islam, the family is a spiritual institution that plays a central role in shaping human psychological and moral balance. However, modernization, individualism, and value disorientation have led to rising psychological crises and disharmony in Muslim households. This issue requires a scientific approach that goes beyond legal-normative perspectives toward an integrative psychological understanding. This study aims to analyze the concept of Sakinah, Mawaddah, and Rahmah from a psychological perspective to formulate a contextual and applicable model of family well-being. The research employs a qualitative library research method by synthesizing Islamic sources (Qur’an, Hadith, and classical scholarship) with contemporary psychological theories of emotional well-being and spiritual intelligence. The findings reveal that Sakinah represents spiritual-emotional equilibrium, Mawaddah functions as an ethical and transcendental affective energy, and Rahmah embodies compassionate empathy that nurtures healing and forgiveness. Together, these values constitute the Islamic Family Well-Being Model, an integrative paradigm that situates spirituality as emotional regulation, love as affective force, and compassion as moral regulator. This model asserts that genuine harmony in Muslim families can only be achieved through psycho-spiritual balance grounded in divine values.

The engagement (khitbah) is a crucial step before marriage. It is a formal statement made by a man to a woman he is proposing to marry. This statement can be made directly or through an intermediary. After the engagement, the marriage can be continued, or it can be postponed. Delaying marriage is permissible for those who are unable to marry, but those who are able are encouraged to do so immediately. The values of Islamic education are the development of human reason and the regulation of behavior and emotions based on Islamic teachings. Thus, Islamic educational values will bring happiness, prosperity, and salvation to humans both in this world and the hereafter. According to Islam, everyone must prepare themselves as well as possible to build relationships based on love and noble values. Physical, mental, and economic readiness are required; in this situation, in terms of the educational characteristics inherent in Islamic teachings, the goal is to build a safe, pleasant, and peaceful household environment.
