This study aims to analyze the implementation of the policy on drug abuse education programs for students in Senior High Schools. The main focus of this research is to examine the extent to which government and institutional policies have been effectively implemented within the school environment. The problem identified in the field indicates that the implementation of anti-drug education programs has not been optimal, due to limited coordination among stakeholders, inadequate resources, and the low level of teacher and student participation in preventive activities.This research employed a qualitative descriptive approach with a case study design conducted in several Senior High Schools that implemented drug abuse education programs. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, observations, and document analysis. The research questions focused on: (1) how the policy on drug abuse education programs is implemented in schools; (2) what factors support and hinder its implementation; and (3) how the implementation of the policy affects students’ understanding and attitudes toward drug abuse prevention.The results revealed that the policy implementation was partial and not yet fully integrated into the curriculum or school culture. The main supporting factors included the strong commitment of school principals and partnerships with the National Narcotics Board (BNN), while the main inhibiting factors were limited human resources, weak policy monitoring, and a lack of contextualized educational materials. Nevertheless, the program has had a positive impact on improving students’ awareness and preventive attitudes toward drug abuse, especially when activities were conducted collaboratively and sustainably.

The expansion strategies implemented include selecting markets with cultural proximity, adapting products to local preferences, and collaborating with international partners. The main obstacles faced include competition with global brands, differences in consumer tastes, financial constraints, and export regulations. However, business opportunities remain wide open in line with the increasing global coffee consumption trend, interest in authentic local products, and government support in promoting and facilitating MSMEs. This study concludes that the success of MSME internationalisation is largely determined by the synergy between internal company quality, digitalisation, partnership networks, and external support from the government.

A target is needed for kicks and attacks. Currently, these targets are always held by the lecturer, which, when used, significantly wastes time in learning sessions. With the funded Community Service Program (PKM) activity, the lecturer developed his creativity by creating a target stand, which was still incomplete at the time. The results of this community service implementation will impact students in the Physical Education Department at Lambung Mangkurat University. Lecturers teaching martial arts courses have greatly benefited from the presence of this target stand. Survey data analysis results are still in progress and will be attached to the final report. In this case, the partner is a colleague within the Physical Education Department, with whom he has a collaboration in the construction and welding fields. 80% of sports equipment is made from hard materials such as steel. Therefore, the Department has a long-standing partnership with DTK (Dita Teknik Kontruksi). Furthermore, metal sports equipment is regularly maintained, and if damaged, the partner is ready to repair it at a certain capacity.

The licensing of clinics and hospitals is crucial for achieving quality and equitable healthcare in Indonesia. The legal framework, including the 2009 Health Law and the 2020 Omnibus Law, has introduced a risk-based approach via the Online Single Submission (OSS) system to streamline the process. However, significant challenges remain. These include bureaucratic complexity, inconsistent regional regulations due to autonomy, lack of data integration between institutions, and high accreditation costs. These barriers particularly hinder small investors and limit the distribution of healthcare facilities in remote areas. Recent reforms, such as the National Digital Public Service Mall (MPP Digital), aim to address these issues by reducing licensing time to under one hour, thereby boosting transparency and efficiency. Despite this progress, unresolved issues concerning patient data privacy, the uneven distribution of medical personnel, and conflicting environmental regulations still need harmonization. To foster inclusive investment and support the 2030 Universal Health Coverage (UHC) goals, this research proposes key solutions: implementing fiscal incentives, adopting AI technology for verification, and strengthening public-private partnerships. With these targeted reforms, the licensing system can become a powerful driver for better healthcare access and sectoral growth.

This community service activity aims to empower the Galansia Business Group in Sait Buttu Saribu Village, Pematang Sidamanik District, Simalungun Regency, which is engaged in the processing of agricultural products and household products. The main problems faced by the partners include limited production capacity, inconsistent product quality, simple business management, and traditional marketing methods. To overcome these problems, the community service team applied a participatory approach by providing appropriate technology, business management assistance, and digital marketing training. The results of the activities showed a significant increase in production capacity, time efficiency, and product quality consistency thanks to the use of onion slicing machines and liquid soap mixing machines. In terms of marketing, the partners successfully utilized social media as a means of promotion and distribution, and improved product packaging to make it more attractive and professional. In terms of management, the partners were able to implement simple digital-based financial records and were facilitated in handling business legality. The impact achieved was an increase in members' income of more than 50% and the growth of entrepreneurial spirit among the village's elderly. This program has proven to be effective in supporting business independence and can be used as a model for community-based MSME empowerment in the digital era.

This article analyzes the fundamental differences between the mechanisms of fund collection and fund distribution in Islamic banks and conventional banks in Indonesia, based on DSN-MUI Fatwas and banking regulations. In general, both types of banks serve the same function—to collect and distribute funds to support economic activities. However, the main distinction lies in their operational principles. Conventional banks operate using a fixed interest system, establishing a creditor–debtor relationship. In contrast, Islamic banks operate based on Sharia principles that prohibit riba (usury). In fund collection, conventional banks use interest-based savings and deposit products, while Islamic banks apply Wadiah (safekeeping) and Mudharabah (profit-sharing investment) contracts. Regarding fund distribution, conventional banks provide interest-bearing loans, whereas Islamic banks offer financing through Sharia contracts such as Murabahah (cost-plus sale), Musyarakah (partnership), Mudharabah (profit-sharing), and Ijarah (leasing), emphasizing cooperation and risk-sharing. Although Islamic banking is regulated under Law No. 21 of 2008 and DSN-MUI Fatwas, it still faces several challenges, including the dominance of Murabahah financing and the low level of public literacy regarding Islamic financial systems.

This study aims to formulate strategies for developing Village-Owned Enterprises (BUMDes) through the utilization of natural resources in the durian plantation sector in Dahai Village, Paringin District, Balangan Regency. The research employed a qualitative approach with a case study design, involving village officials, BUMDes managers, village facilitators, and community members as informants. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, observation, and document analysis, and then analyzed thematically using descriptive methods. The findings indicate that BUMDes Dahai Maju Berkarya holds strategic potential in developing durian plantations, with positive feasibility projections in market, technical, managerial, and financial aspects. Furthermore, the mentoring process improved human resource capacity and community participation, although challenges remain in terms of capital, technical expertise, and digital marketing needs. The study concludes that durian plantation development through BUMDes is feasible and can enhance community welfare while strengthening local economic independence. Practical implications highlight the need for financial support and external partnerships, while theoretical contributions enrich the literature on village development based on local potential with a focus on specific commodities.

This Community Service Programme was implemented to address the issues faced by Bank Sampah Anggrek's partners in Bendogerit Village, Blitar City. The main problems faced by the partners included limited variety of recycled products, simple waste processing techniques, and ineffective marketing strategies. Activities include socialisation, strengthening local partnerships, recycling training, and digital marketing assistance. As a result, members of the Waste Bank were able to create three new products: plant pots made from orange peels, carnival costumes made from fabric and plastic waste, and ecobrick furniture, and establish collaborations with two local businesses. The constraints of the Community Service Programme activities included limited production facilities, inconsistent participant attendance, low digital literacy, and competition with traditional waste collectors. This programme demonstrates that a waste bank-based sociopreneurship model can have economic, social, and environmental impacts while supporting sustainable waste management strategies. The programme was also successful due to its participatory approach, which actively involved Anggrek Waste Bank members in every step. Participants not only gained new information, but also acquired practical skills that can be used in the processing and marketing of recycled goods. This community service programme greatly helps to raise awareness of the importance of community-based circular economy. While reducing negative impacts on the environment, the sociopreneurship model can boost the community's economy. Bank Sampah Anggrek has the potential to develop into a centre for sustainable waste management innovation at the neighbourhood level by strengthening local capacity and opening up opportunities for cross-sector collaboration.

The primary goal of this Community Service Program (PKM) is to assist local farmers in utilizing rabbit urine waste—previously discarded into a value-added product in the form of liquid organic fertilizer (LOF). This innovation aims not only to enhance technical production skills but also to stimulate local economic growth through entrepreneurship based on local resources. The program involves several strategic steps: designing a simple fermentation device using a 20-liter bucket equipped with an airlock and digital thermometer; providing technical training in the LOF-making process, quality control, and hygiene standards; offering entrepreneurial mentoring in production management, financial recording, branding, and marketing; and developing local distribution networks through farmer groups and agricultural shops. The results show that partners can independently produce consistent-quality LOF, packaged in 600 ml bottles with simple labeling for commercial appeal. The program improves technical and entrepreneurial skills, increases farmers’ income, fosters cooperation, and supports sustainable agriculture through environmentally friendly waste utilization.

Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) play a vital role in the economy but still face challenges in utilizing digital technology for marketing. Shofi Cookies, as the partner of this program, has been using TikTok and a website, yet their utilization remains suboptimal. This community service activity aimed to enhance the partner’s digital capacity through social media analysis, website audits, and digital branding training. The methods included evaluating the TikTok account, auditing the website’s Search Engine Optimization (SEO), and providing training on the use of WordPress Content Management System (CMS) along with branding strategies. The results showed that the TikTok account was still personal, limiting analytic data, while the website audit produced a C- SEO score with issues in mobile access speed. The training, attended by the owner and operator, received positive responses with high satisfaction, although participants’ understanding still needs improvement. The implication of this activity highlights the importance of follow-up actions such as switching to a TikTok business account, increasing content upload consistency, and optimizing website SEO. With these efforts, Shofi Cookies is expected to strengthen competitiveness, expand market reach, and increase sales in the digital era.

The agricultural sector plays a crucial role in supporting the livelihoods and economic stability of Indonesian society, particularly within the Pademawu community. Indonesia’s vast agrarian landscape and strong reliance on agriculture have shaped various local traditions and cooperative systems among farmers. One such system is the muzara’ah agreement, a form of agricultural profit-sharing partnership between landowners and cultivators. This research focuses on the implementation of the Paron La’as agreement, a traditional form of muzara’ah practiced by the Pademawu community, which reflects both economic cooperation and Islamic legal principles. The study employs a qualitative approach using a field research design to collect descriptive data through interviews, observation, and documentation. The findings reveal that the Paron La’as system is conducted in accordance with the principles of Islamic law governing muzara’ah contracts, particularly in terms of fairness, mutual consent, and proportional profit distribution between landowners and farmers. Moreover, the study highlights how this cooperative practice not only strengthens economic ties within the community but also preserves local wisdom and social harmony. Therefore, the Paron La’as model demonstrates an effective integration of Islamic economic values with traditional agricultural systems, serving as a sustainable example of community-based agricultural cooperation in Indonesia.

Government procurement of goods and services is a crucial instrument in achieving transparent, efficient, and accountable governance. One of the key innovations introduced is the e-Catalogue system, an electronic procurement platform provided by the National Public Procurement Agency (LKPP). This study aims to evaluate the implementation of the e-Catalogue in sports equipment procurement at the Youth and Sports Office (Dispora) of Semarang City, focusing on its mechanisms, supporting and inhibiting factors, and its impact on procurement governance. This research employed a descriptive qualitative approach, involving eight informants consisting of structural officials and suppliers. The findings indicate that, in general, the implementation of the e-Catalogue has been effective, particularly in terms of time efficiency, price transparency, and accountability enhancement. However, several challenges remain, including the lack of formal policy dissemination, limited digital literacy among some staff, insufficient internet infrastructure, and unstructured inter-unit coordination. Based on these findings, the study recommends several strategic measures: (1) establishing a permanent inter-unit coordination team, (2) strengthening human resource capacity through continuous training, (3) developing a digital dashboard for real-time monitoring, (4) providing limited public access to procurement reports, and (5) fostering partnerships with suppliers through technical forums and routine evaluations. These measures are expected to optimize the implementation of the e-Catalogue and serve as a best practice model for other local government institutions.

Salem District is one of the largest coffee commodities in Brebes Regency. This significant potential has yet to provide a meaningful contribution to the income of coffee farmers, especially in Gunung Jaya village, Salem District. The low income of coffee farmers is due to the fact that they still sell their coffee products in the form of cherry. Over time, in 2018, farmers began to develop small-scale and simple coffee processing from green beans to roasted beans and coffee powder, pioneered by the SME "Lulumpang Kopi". They still use simple tools and often have to travel out of town to obtain the desired coffee powder. Lulumpang Kopi can produce 100-150 packages of coffee weighing 100 grams. Seeing this potential, the Community Partnership Empowerment team (PKM) from the University of Civilisation and UNSOED, funded by DIKTISAINTEK, is conducting community service this year 2025 using training methods, workshops, and appropriate technology grants. Thus, technology has been granted in the form of 1 Huller machine with a capacity of 150kg/batch, 1 BBM Grinding machine with a capacity of 10kg/batch, and scales. This assistance aims to enhance farmers' capabilities to achieve greater economic independence and improve their competitiveness in the market. As a result of this activity, partners were able to increase the capacity and quality of coffee farmers' production through the grant of equipment such as huller, BBM grinder, and digital scales, making the processing faster, more efficient, and yielding better coffee compared to traditional methods. In addition, the training participants also demonstrated an increase in knowledge through pre-tests and post-tests, rising from 66.5% to 77.3%, an increase of 13.8% from the 40 participants who attended.

Islamic banking plays a crucial role in providing financing in accordance with Islamic principles, including through the Home Ownership Credit (KPR) product. This study aims to analyze the implementation of the Murabahah and Musyarakah Mutanaqishah (MMQ) contracts in the iB Hijrah KPR financing product at Bank Muamalat KCP Rancaekek. The Murabahah contract is implemented through a sale and purchase mechanism, where the bank purchases the house the customer needs and resells it with an agreed profit margin, thus providing price certainty and a simple process. Meanwhile, the MMQ contract is based on a partnership between the bank and the customer with a concept of joint ownership that gradually decreases, thus creating flexibility and a more balanced risk sharing. This study uses a qualitative descriptive approach with data collection techniques through literature studies, interviews, and observations. The results of the analysis show that the majority of customers prefer the Murabahah contract due to its simplicity, although in the long term, MMQ is seen as more economical and fair. Thus, both contracts are equally relevant to support Sharia-based home ownership. This research is expected to contribute to Islamic banking in improving service quality, strengthening Islamic financial literacy, and encouraging innovation in competitive and sustainable financing products.

The family plays a central role in shaping children’s growth and well-being, particularly in marginalized communities where access to education and healthcare is limited. This study aims to describe the forms of family support in improving the well-being of children at Sanggar Anak Sungai Deli, a non-formal educational institution located along the banks of the Deli River in Medan City. Using a qualitative descriptive approach, the research involved observations, in-depth interviews, and documentation. The informants included families of children, sanggar administrators, and children actively participating in the program. The findings reveal that family support is manifested in six main indicators: (1) positive emotional relationships, (2) provision of safety and comfort, (3) instilling positive values, (4) support for education and talent development, (5) protection from negative influences, and (6) partial fulfillment of basic needs. These supports contribute significantly to children’s emotional, social, and intellectual well-being, although the physical aspect remains less fulfilled due to economic constraints. Despite limited financial resources, families demonstrate care and commitment to supporting their children’s development. Sanggar Anak Sungai Deli serves as an essential partner by providing a safe and supportive learning environment. This study concludes that family involvement, combined with community-based interventions such as SASUDE, is crucial in ensuring holistic child well-being. The implications highlight the importance of strengthening collaboration between families, community organizations, and government to address gaps in child welfare programs in marginalized areas.  

Tedunan Beach in Seluma Regency, Bengkulu, holds exceptional potential as an ecotourism asset, attributed to its authentic and untouched natural landscape, featuring white sand stretches and a unique mangrove ecosystem. Sustainable tourism development, however, demands active participation and entrepreneurship from the local community, which is key to ensuring the equitable distribution of economic benefits and environmental preservation. This research aims to analyze the current community entrepreneurship models, identify challenges hindering business growth, and formulate strategic opportunities for development. Using a qualitative approach with a case study method, data was collected through in-depth interviews with business actors and community leaders, participant observation, and documentation studies. Findings indicate that community-based businesses have grown organically, albeit on a micro scale, encompassing fresh seafood culinary stalls, tourist hut rentals, and local guide services. Nevertheless, this growth is hampered by fundamental constraints: limited access to formal working capital, minimal promotion hindering market penetration, and a lack of professional training in financial management and tourism service standards. In response, an integrated development model is formulated recommending: increasing human resource capacity through business management and tourism awareness training, facilitating access to capital through partnerships, and strengthening digital-based promotion. In conclusion, Tedunan Beach tourism can be sustainable if supported by a comprehensive empowerment program that not only boosts economic income but also essentially fosters a sense of ownership and community responsibility towards the destination's preservation.

The problem of organic waste remains a serious issue in Indonesia, including in rural areas. Jatitamban Village, Bondowoso Regency, faces similar challenges due to household waste and residual by-products from local small enterprises producing tape and cassava chips, which are not yet optimally managed. The Community Service Program (KKN) of the University of Jember implemented an initiative to empower village youth through maggot cultivation as an environmentally friendly and economically valuable solution for organic waste management. This study employed a Community-Based Research (CBR) approach by engaging local youth as active partners in every stage of the program, including observation, planning, socialization, technical training, workshops, and monitoring. The results indicate that Black Soldier Fly (BSF) maggot cultivation serves as an effective strategy to reduce the volume of organic waste while producing value-added products such as alternative animal feed and organic fertilizer. The involvement of youth not only enhanced their knowledge and skills but also fostered environmental awareness and created new entrepreneurial opportunities. Furthermore, the program successfully established a solid and independent youth group capable of sustainably managing organic waste through maggot cultivation practices. The implications of this program extend beyond environmental improvement to promoting village economic independence through the utilization of organic waste. Therefore, youth empowerment through maggot cultivation can serve as a strategic model for sustainable waste management as well as strengthening community capacity in rural areas.

Appropriate technology innovation (TTG) in agriculture is an important solution in improving farmers' work efficiency, especially in the fertilization process. In Pamotan Village, where the majority of the population are tobacco farmers, the fertilization method is still done manually by sowing on the soil surface. This method often causes uneven distribution of fertilizer, wastage of energy and time, and a lot of fertilizer lost by water or wind. This community service activity aims to introduce a manual fertilizer sowing tool made from PVC as a simple, cheap, and easy-to-use solution for farmers. The implementation method includes counseling, tool demonstration, and direct training to farmer groups as activity partners. Evaluation was conducted through observation and questionnaires before and after the activity. The results showed an increase in farmers' understanding of efficient fertilization, as well as a positive response to the tools that were considered practical and economical. The use of this seedling tool can save up to 30% fertilizer and speed up the fertilization process by 40%. Thus, this manual fertilizer seedling tool is effective in helping farmers improve work efficiency and productivity, and is very suitable for small-scale farmers in rural areas.
