One key measure of a region's economic growth is the employment rate, as it reflects the ability of the economy to absorb labor and improve community welfare. In Jambi Province, employment opportunities are influenced by several factors, including Gross Regional Domestic Product (GRDP), population growth, and the Human Development Index (HDI). This study aims to analyze the effects of GRDP, population growth, and HDI on employment growth rates across regencies and cities in Jambi Province. The research employs a quantitative approach using panel data regression analysis covering 11 regencies and cities during the period 2017–2023. The findings indicate that GRDP growth, population growth, and HDI simultaneously influence employment levels. Partially, population growth and HDI have significant effects on employment, indicating that improvements in human development and demographic dynamics contribute to labor absorption. Meanwhile, economic growth, as measured by GRDP, has a relatively small negative effect on employment. This suggests that economic expansion does not always generate proportional employment opportunities, possibly due to structural changes and technological developments. Therefore, policies aimed at improving human capital and labor market conditions are essential to support sustainable employment growth in Jambi Province.

Kampung Batik Okra, located in Kranggan Urban Village, Bubutan District, Surabaya City, represents a community-based creative economy initiative officially inaugurated on 28 December 2022 by the Surabaya City Government. This study aims to analyze the facilitating role of the urban village administration in strengthening the creative economic capacity of residents through the batik industry, as well as to identify supporting and inhibiting factors for community empowerment in Kampung Batik Okra. A descriptive qualitative approach was employed, with data collected through in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and document analysis. Informants were purposively selected, encompassing village government officials, batik group administrators, artisans, and academic facilitators. The findings reveal that the urban village administration performs three principal facilitative roles: (1) facilitation of training and skill enhancement; (2) facilitation of market access and promotion; and (3) facilitation of multi-stakeholder partnerships. These roles contribute significantly to the strengthening of residents’ creative economic capacity, as evidenced by an increase in active artisans, product diversification, and expanded marketing networks. Nevertheless, limited human resource capacity within the village administration, inconsistent community participation, and restricted access to capital remain structural barriers requiring more systemic policy interventions. This research offers a conceptual framework of empowerment-based facilitating roles for urban villages, which may serve as a reference for developing creative economy villages in Indonesian urban areas.

This study analyzes the implementation of the Central Papua One-Stop Service Information System (Sipersateng) at the Central Papua Provincial Secretariat as a model for administrative innovation in the New Autonomous Region (DOB). The main focus of the study is to explore how a region with extreme infrastructure limitations can leapfrog or institutionalize towards an agile and transparent digital bureaucracy. Using a qualitative descriptive-analytical method with a case study approach, this research involved in-depth interviews, participant observation, and documentation studies to capture the dynamics of the transition from manual to digital systems. The results show that Sipersateng successfully reduced administrative process time by up to 60%. This success was driven by three main dimensions: institutional legitimacy through strong leadership commitment, technical resilience through offline-syncing features to address internet signal fluctuations, and significant changes in work culture. Adaptation strategies such as peer-mentoring methods for senior officials and mandatory policies through gubernatorial instructions proved effective in breaking down organizational cultural resistance. This study concludes that Sipersateng is not merely a technical tool, but rather a manifestation of Frontier Digital Bureaucracy that is able to mitigate the risk of maladministration and build public accountability in the newly formed province. This innovation demonstrates that geographic limitations are not a major barrier to achieving clean governance if supported by inclusive and adaptive system design. These findings provide a theoretical contribution to the public management literature on digitalization in regions with high structural challenges.

This study aims to: (1) describe Employee Performance, Work Climate, and Employee Engagement; and (2) analyze the influence of Work Climate and Employee Engagement on Employee Performance, both partially and simultaneously. The population of this study consisted of all employees of the Ministry of Religious Affairs Office of Sikka Regency, totaling 189 employees. Since the population size was relatively large, the sampling technique used was probability sampling with a simple random sampling method. The sample size was determined using the Slovin formula, resulting in 65 respondents. Data were collected through questionnaires and analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistical methods, namely multiple linear regression analysis. Hypothesis testing was conducted using the F-test and t-test. The results of the descriptive analysis indicate that Employee Performance is categorized as good, Work Climate is categorized as good, and Employee Engagement is also categorized as good. The results of the t-test show that Work Climate has a positive and significant effect on Employee Performance. Furthermore, Employee Engagement also has a positive and significant effect on Employee Performance. The results of the F-test indicate that Work Climate and Employee Engagement simultaneously have a significant effect on Employee Performance. The coefficient of determination analysis shows that the two independent variables in this study are able to explain 47.9% of the variation in Employee Performance at the Ministry of Religious Affairs Office of Sikka Regency.

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a chronic metabolic disease characterized by elevated blood glucose levels due to insufficient insulin production or ineffective insulin utilization. The prevalence of DM in Indonesia reached 11.7% in the 2023 National Health Survey, with Brebes Regency recording 568 DM cases in 2025 and increasing to 157 cases in Tonjong Village in January 2026.

High consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages (SSBs) has become an increasing public health concern, particularly among adolescents. Excessive SSB intake is a major risk factor for various non-communicable diseases, including type 2 diabetes mellitus, cardiovascular diseases, obesity, dental caries, and certain types of cancer. This study aimed to analyze the factors associated with the level of sugar-sweetened beverage (SSB) consumption among adolescents. This study employed a descriptive literature review approach. Data were obtained from national and international journals relevant to the topic of SSB consumption among adolescents. The selected articles were analyzed to identify factors associated with SSB consumption. The findings indicated that SSB consumption among adolescents is influenced by several factors, including individual factors (gender and knowledge), socioeconomic factors (peer influence and pocket money allowance), environmental factors (mass media exposure and beverage availability), and psychological factors (stress level and preference for sweet tastes). This study highlights that SSB consumption is a multifactorial behavior influenced by various interacting determinants. Therefore, comprehensive interventions targeting both individual and environmental factors are needed to reduce SSB consumption among adolescents.

Sexuality education is crucial for equipping adolescents and fostering healthy, responsible behavior. Lack of knowledge and understanding regarding sexuality education can increase the risk of sexual behavior, which can impact physical and mental health, and reduce concentration during learning. This activity aims to increase the knowledge of students at SMK Bhakti Indonesia Medika in Pangkalanbun Regency regarding education on preventing sexual harassment in the school environment. The outreach activity was conducted in May 2026 with 43 students aged 15-16 years, using a pretest-posttest method, leaflets, and PowerPoint presentations. The results showed an increase in the average student knowledge score from 50 to 95 after the education. The majority of students were 16 years old, and some had boyfriends. These findings indicate that the education provided in schools is very effective and useful as a warning to take the first step in preventing sexual harassment in the school environment for adolescents. This education can be recommended for regular replication to strengthen a safe and responsive school culture to child protection issues.

A common health problem, especially in developing countries, is anemia. This is common among adolescent girls due to their lack of knowledge about anemia. This puts them at risk of developing anemia, particularly because menstruation is a contributing factor. Providing health education is expected to change behaviors toward a healthy lifestyle and contribute to preventing anemia among adolescent girls. This community service activity was held on May 26, 2026, at SMK Bhakti Indonesia Medika, and was attended by female students of childbearing age. The methods used included lectures, discussions, question-and-answer sessions, and sharing sessions. Pretests and posttests were used as evaluation materials to measure the increase in students' knowledge. The average pretest score was 7, while the average posttest score was 12, indicating a 5 point increase in knowledge about anemia among adolescent girls. The students demonstrated interest and enthusiasm during this activity. The results and conclusions of the e-booklet-based education program proved to be an effective alternative medium for increasing students' knowledge about anemia prevention. It is hoped that similar education can be implemented sustainably to improve the quality of healthy life in adolescent girls.

Health education is an effort or attempt to provide information to improve individual abilities in making decisions related to health and health-related skills, especially for adolescents. This activity aims to increase the knowledge of SMKS BIM students about acupressure for adolescents. The counseling activity was carried out on May 26, 2026 with 43 students aged between 15-18 years old, using the pretest-posttest method with leaflet media, powerpoint presentations and practicing with students. The results showed an increase in student knowledge from 70 to 95 after being given education. The majority of students aged 16 years (middle adolescents) were identified as having a risk of physical health problems. The education and mentoring provided to students/me were able to increase their knowledge about the benefits and techniques of acupressure to deal with the health problems they experienced. The counseling method with lectures and leaflet media was proven to be easy for students/me to understand and could improve their skills in acupressure practice.

Rumbia fruit contains various bioactive secondary metabolites, particularly flavonoids, which are recognized for their antioxidant properties. These compounds contribute to the prevention of oxidative damage by scavenging and neutralizing free radicals. To enhance its practicality and ease of application, the fruit pulp extract was incorporated into a cream formulation.
