Integrating modern leadership approaches with local wisdom remains a challenge in enhancing the quality of education in Indonesian higher education institutions. This study examines the impact of integrating instructional leadership with ethnopedagogy based on the Dalihan Na Tolu philosophy on learning quality at Graha Nusantara University. Using a mixed-method approach with a sequential explanatory design, the study involved 50 lecturers selected through systematic random sampling and 100 students. Data were collected through validated questionnaires (validity coefficients ranging from 0.72 to 0.89; reliability with Cronbach's Alpha of 0.88), in-depth interviews, and participatory observations. The findings reveal that instructional leadership independently accounts for 67 percent of the variation in learning quality (coefficient of determination, R-squared = 0.670, with p < 0.001), with key determinants being guidance (correlation coefficient = 0.820) and vision-mission communication (correlation coefficient = 0.790). Ethnopedagogical leadership contributes significantly through the values of Somba Marhula-hula (regression coefficient = 0.45), Manat Mardongan Tubu (regression coefficient = 0.41), and Elek Marboru (regression coefficient = 0.38). The integration of these approaches produces significant synergistic effects (R-squared = 0.830), resulting in a 70 percent increase in active interaction, a 68 percent improvement in the effectiveness of learning strategies, and a 66 percent boost in productivity. This study contributes to developing an integrated leadership model that combines modern values with local wisdom. It also provides practical implications for designing training programs and implementing dual-approach monitoring systems in higher education institutions.

The sugar tax has emerged as a strategy adopted by various countries to address public health issues caused by excessive sugar consumption. This study examines the impact of the tax in the UK and Mexico, as well as its implications for Indonesia. Data from the Central Statistics Agency (BPS) show that per capita sugar consumption in Indonesia far exceeds the recommended limits set by the Ministry of Health and WHO, increasing the risk of non-communicable diseases such as diabetes and obesity. In the UK, the sugar tax successfully reduced sugar consumption, particularly among children and adolescents, while in Mexico, sugary beverage consumption also declined significantly. Besides reducing sugar intake, the tax generates revenue that can fund public health programs. However, resistance from the food and beverage industry and local communities presents challenges. This study recommends implementing a sugar tax in Indonesia as a strategic step to improve public health, supported by complementary policies promoting healthy eating and stronger consumer protections.

Nosocomial infections, acquired by patients during their stay in healthcare facilities, pose a significant challenge to service quality and cost efficiency. These infections worsen patient conditions and strain the healthcare system. In Indonesia, prevalence ranges from 10–15%, highlighting the need for effective prevention strategies. This community service program involved health education at Mitra Medika Tanjung Mulia Hospital to enhance patient and family awareness of nosocomial infection prevention. Activities included systematic planning, educational material development, and hands-on prevention training. As a result, participants' understanding increased from 45% to 85%, with compliance reaching 80%. However, challenges remain, such as limited resources and varying adherence levels. Therefore, continuous education, facility improvements, and regular evaluations are necessary to reduce nosocomial infection rates and enhance patient safety in healthcare settings.

Asphyxia is a condition in which a baby fails to breathe spontaneously and regularly immediately after birth, preventing oxygen intake and carbonic acid removal (Dewi, 2011). It is a pathological change caused by insufficient oxygen in the respiratory air, leading to hypoxia and hypercapnia (Ridha, 2014). Asphyxia can occur at birth (primary asphyxia) or develop later (secondary asphyxia). This study aims to identify factors influencing neonatal asphyxia at the Pagar Merbau Health Center, Deli Serdang Regency, in 2023. The research employs an analytical method with a cross-sectional approach. Data analysis utilized the chi-square statistical test and Fisher’s Exact Test in SPSS to determine the relationship between independent and dependent variables. Results from bivariate analysis using Fisher's Exact Test revealed a p-value of 0.344, indicating no statistically significant relationship between maternal age and neonatal asphyxia at the Pagar Merbau Health Center in 2023. To reduce neonatal asphyxia risk, pregnant women should undergo regular antenatal care using available health facilities to detect complications such as premature birth (<37 weeks), postmature birth (>42 weeks), low birth weight, or premature rupture of membranes. Early detection and appropriate medical intervention can minimize neonatal asphyxia incidence. Healthcare providers must enhance prenatal education and monitoring programs to ensure better maternal and neonatal health outcomes. Strengthening healthcare services and raising awareness among pregnant women about risk factors can contribute significantly to reducing neonatal asphyxia cases.

Background: Cervical cancer remains a major cause of morbidity and mortality among women, particularly in developing countries. Although early detection methods such as visual inspection with acetic acid (IVA) and Pap smear are effective, participation among women of reproductive age is still low. Identifying factors that influence women’s interest in cervical cancer screening is essential to strengthen prevention programs at the primary healthcare level. Method:  This study used a quantitative analytical observational design with a cross-sectional approach. The research was conducted in the working area of UPT Puskesmas Rawat Inap Ome Tidore. Participants were women of reproductive age (15–49 years) selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire assessing socio-demographic characteristics, knowledge, attitudes, access to health information, family or husband support, and interest in early detection of cervical cancer. Data analysis included univariate and bivariate analysis using Chi-square or Fisher’s exact tests. Results: The results showed that age, education level, knowledge, attitudes, access to health information, and family or husband support were significantly associated with women’s interest in early detection of cervical cancer. Women aged 25–49 years, those with higher education, good knowledge, positive attitudes, adequate access to information, and strong family support demonstrated higher interest in screening. Fear, embarrassment, lack of time, and misconceptions were identified as common barriers. Conclusion: Women’s interest in cervical cancer early detection is influenced by predisposing, enabling, and reinforcing factors. Strengthening health education, improving information access, and involving family support are key to increasing screening participation.

Penelitian ini meneliti peran pemuridan gereja dalam mendorong pertumbuhan dan kedewasaan rohani jemaat, dengan menggunakan Gereja Gerakan Pentakosta Immanuel Bogor sebagai studi kasus. Gereja dipanggil untuk berfungsi sebagai sekolah rohani, memperlengkapi jemaat untuk menerapkan iman mereka dalam kehidupan sehari-hari dan bertumbuh dalam karakter yang selaras dengan ajaran Kristen. Meskipun telah melakukan ibadah rutin dan berbagai kegiatan pastoral, jemaat sering kali tidak mengalami pertumbuhan rohani yang signifikan, yang disebabkan oleh kurangnya fokus pada program pemuridan yang terstruktur.Dengan menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif-deskriptif yang didasarkan pada prinsip-prinsip alkitabiah, penelitian ini mengungkapkan korelasi yang signifikan antara upaya pemuridan dan pertumbuhan rohani jemaat. Temuan-temuan menyoroti bahwa materi pemuridan yang sistematis dan relevan secara kontekstual secara efektif meningkatkan pertumbuhan rohani. Lebih lanjut, Efesus 4:11-16 menggarisbawahi pentingnya memperlengkapi jemaat untuk pelayanan, mencapai kesatuan dalam iman, dan menjadi dewasa di dalam Kristus.Studi ini menekankan perlunya pemuridan strategis yang disesuaikan dengan kebutuhan jemaat, yang mencakup anak-anak, remaja, wanita, dan orang dewasa. Penelitian ini menyerukan pergeseran prioritas gereja dari infrastruktur fisik ke pendidikan rohani para anggota. Selain memberikan wawasan yang berharga, penelitian lebih lanjut direkomendasikan untuk mengeksplorasi faktor-faktor yang memengaruhi pertumbuhan rohani dalam konteks gereja yang berbeda, untuk memastikan keberlanjutan dampak pemuridan.

Increasing community literacy in environmental management is a strategic step to realize sustainable development. One practical approach that can be implemented is through community-based education. This article examines how local communities can become agents of change in increasing public awareness and understanding regarding environmental issues, such as waste management, natural resource conservation, and adaptation to climate change. Through a participatory approach, community-based education encourages direct community involvement in designing and implementing environmental programs that suit local needs. Case studies from various regions show that collaboration between communities, government, and the private sector can increase the effectiveness of educational programs and create long-term impacts. The work programs are processing organic and inorganic waste, processing agricultural land, planting trees, preventing dengue fever and making anti-mosquito spray, providing information related to Hoaxes and phishing link modes, and collecting data on MSMEs. Apart from that, there are also work programs regarding learning posts, introducing waste banks, making street signs, and creating village websites. The results obtained from this activity are an approach to the community through social activities carried out with residents and increasing community insight through the outreach and training programs provided. Apart from that, village facilities can be improved by creating street signs and village websites. It is hoped that the results of this study can become a practical guide in developing a sustainable community-based education model for environmental management.

This research aims to explore the use of information technology-based digital literacy in increasing awareness of data security and preventing cyber crime. The approach used is qualitative with descriptive analysis methods, which combine primary and secondary data. Primary data was obtained through in-depth interviews with information technology experts, digital literacy activists, the government, and the general public, coupled with observations of the implementation of digital literacy programs in several regions. Secondary data was obtained from official documents and reports related to digital literacy and cyber threats. The research results show that although understanding about the use of digital devices is quite widespread, awareness of the importance of protecting personal data is still low. Existing digital literacy programs tend to focus on basic skills in using technology, but do not include material on data security and cyber threats. The main obstacle in implementing digital literacy programs is limited resources and facilities in certain areas. In addition, even though educational efforts regarding cyber threats have been carried out, people still have difficulty understanding the right way to protect their data from cyber attacks. This research concludes that it is necessary to strengthen digital literacy programs that are more inclusive and in-depth, as well as increasing collaboration between the government, the private sector and educational institutions to increase public understanding regarding data security and preventing cyber crime.

Abstract, In recent years, there have been challenges faced by MTs Al Abraar in an effort to improve student learning outcomes, especially in creating creative and innovative learning. The partners involved in this program are teachers at the Al-Abraar Tandem Hilir Private Middle School, Hamparan Perak District, where the main problem experienced by partners is the lack of knowledge in using IT in creating creative teaching materials. Therefore, the solution offered is to provide training in creating creative teaching materials to improve teachers' knowledge and skills in creating, using and optimizing the use of Canva. The location for implementing this program has been discussed with partners, namely at the Al Abraar Tandem Hilir Private Middle School located at Jln. Listrik Emplasmen Tandam Hilir I, Hamparan Perak District, Deli Serdang Regency, North Sumatra. This program consists of stages of preparation, implementation, monitoring, and evaluation. In implementing this service, the team implemented the in-house training method. In the implementation of the training, the community service team provided tutorial materials on the use of Canva which would be carried out for 2 meetings (2 meetings per material) and carried out alternately with a duration of 120 minutes each. Training activities on this were carried out on August 8-9, 2024 offline with lecture methods, direct training, discussions and questions and answers. The results of this activity can be seen that the participants of the activity can recognize and can create creative teaching material designs using Canva and its supporting features and are used in teaching. The sustainability of this program can be measured by the existence of teaching materials made using Canva.

The support of husbands and family members in safe childbirth preparation is crucial for pregnant women. Husbands serve as both emotional and physical companions, providing comfort and security during the birthing process. Challenges encountered in community service partnerships related to spousal and familial support in safe childbirth preparation can encompass several aspects. Firstly, a lack of understanding among husbands and family members regarding the childbirth process can result in minimal emotional and physical support. Many husbands do not participate in prenatal education, leaving them unprepared to provide the necessary support. Secondly, cultural norms that limit the husband's role in childbirth can pose challenges. In some communities, there is still a belief that the husband's role is insignificant in childbirth preparation, leading to decreased participation. This can diminish the pregnant woman's self-confidence and create discomfort. Based on the challenges faced by partners, the proposed solution is the creation of engaging informational media to facilitate the dissemination of information to the public, particularly to husbands and family members, in support of safe childbirth preparation, a program referred to as DuGaLiMan. This initiative was implemented in September 2024 at Babirik Community Health Center, Hulu Sungai Utara Regency, South Kalimantan Province. The DuGaLiMan program, which focuses on spousal and familial support in safe childbirth preparation at Babirik Community Health Center, demonstrates its success in achieving its objectives. The program has successfully increased the knowledge and awareness of husbands and family members regarding the importance of their roles during the childbirth process. With appropriate education, they can provide the necessary emotional and physical support to pregnant women, creating a safer and more comfortable environment.

Adolescent reproductive health knowledge remains suboptimal due to insufficient access to accurate, evidence-based educational resources. This challenge is further compounded by the dissemination of unreliable information, resulting in misconceptions and improper health practices. This study presents a community-based initiative aimed at enhancing reproductive health literacy among students of SMAN 1 Pekanbaru, with a particular focus on integrating the use of natural resources as a preventive strategy. The program addresses gaps in structured reproductive health education and leverages locally available natural resources to foster sustainable health practices. The initiative encompasses structured activities, including socialization sessions for students and educators, comprehensive training on reproductive health and the utilization of natural resources, and the deployment of technology to facilitate information dissemination. Implemented by a multidisciplinary team from the Faculty of Medicine, Universitas Abdurrab, the program is supported by ongoing mentorship and systematic evaluations using surveys and interviews. This initiative underscores the potential for sustained impact through partnerships with schools, local health agencies, and community organizations. By enhancing awareness and encouraging the adoption of natural, sustainable practices, the program serves as a translational application of research findings, with the potential for scalability to other educational institutions and broader community settings.
