Food loss and food waste (FLW) constitute systemic challenges in modern food systems, with direct implications for resource efficiency, environmental sustainability, and food security, particularly in developing countries where horticultural food loss persists upstream while food waste increases in downstream tourism sectors. This review synthesizes literature from 2015 to 2025 on horticultural food loss, tourism-related food waste, and the role of universities in cross-sectoral FLW reduction, using Sembalun, West Nusa Tenggara, as an illustrative agrarian–tourism landscape. The review is based on a multi-database search of academic sources (ScienceDirect/Elsevier, SpringerLink, Wiley Online Library, Taylor & Francis Online, MDPI, and Emerald Insight), complemented by key policy documents from FAO, UNEP, and UNWTO. Thematic synthesis indicates that upstream food loss and downstream food waste reflect structural mismatches between local production systems, tourism consumption patterns, and food governance, and therefore cannot be effectively addressed through isolated sectoral or technical interventions. The review highlights universities as strategic knowledge brokers that facilitate penta-helix collaboration, generate empirical evidence, and support the design of integrated interventions. This study underscores the need to strengthen universities' role in bridging agriculture, tourism, and policy to advance FLW reduction and support sustainable tourism development in rural destinations such as Sembalun, West Nusa Tenggara.

Background: Diabetes mellitus is a chronic metabolic disorder caused by inadequate insulin action. Poor disease control can lead to complications such as neuropathy, commonly marked by tingling or sensory loss. Effective prevention requires structured management through the five pillars of diabetes care. This case study describes the application of these pillars in a patient with hyperglycemia. Case: A 58-year-old male with diabetes mellitus presented with reduced sensation in the feet, abdominal discomfort, and consistently elevated blood glucose levels. The patient had limited disease knowledge and misconceptions related to diabetes self-management. Intervention: Education on the five pillars of diabetes was provided using a structured approach consisting of three self-care pillars and two collaborative pillars. Leaflet-based educational materials developed by the author were used to facilitate understanding for both the patient and family. Results: Following the intervention, the patient demonstrated increased knowledge, awareness, and improved ability to manage hyperglycemia. The family also showed enhanced understanding and support for diabetes care. Conclusion: Nurse-led education using the five pillars of diabetes effectively improves knowledge, awareness, and self-management abilities in individuals with diabetes mellitus, contributing to better glycemic control and prevention of complications.

Knowledge must be managed effectively to facilitate transfer between individuals, groups, and organizations. The Informatics Engineering study program currently lacks a system for knowledge management. Currently, the study program facilitates offline discussion forums for the sharing of knowledge gained by lecturers and students. These offline discussion forums require significant costs, time, and space, often resulting in delays in knowledge sharing. This research focused on the analysis and design of a Knowledge Management System to meet the needs of Informatics Engineering students at Universitas PGRI Madiun. The system development method used was the Knowledge Management System Lifecycle (KMSL). In this study, the TIF KMS system using the KMSL method has been successfully built. The results of testing using the Blackbox Testing method showed that 5 scenarios and 18 cases were successfully executed as expected with a 100% success rate. Based on the system test results, the TIF KMS is ready to proceed to the implementation stage. Future implementation can be done by developing additional features such as a digital library

Nutritional problems in toddlers remain a public health challenge in Indonesia, including in Tarakan City, North Kalimantan. The 2018 Basic Health Research (Riskesdas) data shows a high prevalence of malnutrition, severe malnutrition, and stunting in toddlers, with data showing that based on the body weight index (BB/A) the prevalence of malnourished toddlers is 3.9% while 13.8% of toddlers are undernourished. Based on the height-for-age (H/A) index, there are 11.5% of toddlers with very short nutritional status and 19.3% of toddlers with stunted nutritional status. Meanwhile, based on the weight-for-height (BB/H) index, the proportion of very wasted children is 3.5%, undernourished children are 6.7%, and overweight children are 8% (Riskesdas, 2018). Because of these problems, early nutrition education efforts are needed. This community service activity aims to increase the knowledge of toddler mothers about the importance of balanced nutrition for children, especially through the use of UHT milk as a nutritional supplement, as well as strengthening the role of integrated health posts (Posyandu) in monitoring child growth and development. Thus, this community service activity contributes to raising public awareness of the importance of meeting toddler nutritional needs and is expected to support government programs to reduce the prevalence of stunting in Tarakan City.

Nutritional problems can occur due to two factors, namely direct factors and indirect factors. Direct factors are unbalanced nutritional intake and infectious diseases. The achievement of Exclusive Breastfeeding in Pesawaran Regency during 2014-2019 fluctuated. In 2014, babies who received exclusive breastfeeding were 30.19%, in 2015 it decreased to 20.85%, in 2016 it increased to 49.76% and in 2019 it was 50.48% and still below the expected national target of 80% 11. Based on the results of a pre-survey of 30 breastfeeding mothers, there were 17 mothers (56.6%) with an average age of 15-25 years and most of them with low levels of education who did not provide exclusive breastfeeding on the grounds that the mother worked and did not get support from her husband to provide exclusive breastfeeding (Pesawaran Regency Health Office). The purpose of this community service activity is to increase mothers' knowledge about fulfilling balanced nutrition and exclusive breastfeeding so that toddlers are free from stunting.

The purpose of this service is to increase the understanding of students at the Darul Falah Islamic Boarding School in Purwokerto regarding civic politics, which is currently experiencing a rather acute erosion, even tho civic politics is an important aspect of nationhood; it guaranties the right to life, the right to equal treatment and recognition before the law, the right to think, the right to express opinions, and the right to assemble. In this case, the method used is socialization based on a participatory approach thru lectures, discussions, and statements of attitude. The results of this service activity show that after the presentation of material on the history of santri and the rights of citizens, enthusiasm arose among the santri of Pondok Santri Darul Falah Purwokerto regarding the inherent rights and obligations of all citizens. Students can actualize civic politics by integrating religious sciences, such as by contextualizing environmental jurisprudence in response to the massive environmental damage occurring thanks to state policies. This service activity encourages the role of santri in the state, which was initially only stigmatized as being limited to the realm of seeking religious knowledge and preaching.

This study examines the representation of injustice in the film Bumi Manusia as a medium of collective memory and moral reflection for contemporary Indonesian society. Using a qualitative method with a literature-based approach, the research identifies seven key scenes that portray forms of structural injustice related to race, gender, law, power, and access to knowledge. The analysis reveals that these depictions not only illustrate the oppressive colonial system but also resonate with present-day social realities in Indonesia, where legal inequality, marginalization, and power abuse persist. The findings show that the film offers significant moral and social lessons: the primacy of human dignity, the necessity of a humane legal system, the role of education as a path to liberation, and the ethical responsibilities embedded in power relations. Furthermore, the film’s narrative demonstrates how historical memory shapes critical awareness and encourages resistance against ongoing injustice. The study concludes that Bumi Manusia functions as a cultural text that bridges past and present, providing insights for building a just, dignified, and civilized society today.

This study aims to analyze the definition and concept map of Islamic Education (IPI) within the philosophical framework of Prof. Dr. Hasan Langgulung. IPI is strategically positioned as a discipline that bridges theoretical studies and educational practices in responding to contemporary challenges, while also serving as a foundation for character formation. The method used is library research with a qualitative approach, analyzing primary and secondary documents to synthesize a complete IPI concept map. The results of the study show that Langgulung defines IPI comprehensively as a normative field of science, exploring the process of multi-dimensional human growth (physical, soul, mind, spirit), and utilizing integrative sources of knowledge (revelation, reason, experience). This approach is based on three solid philosophical pillars: Ontology (human nature and fitrah), Epistemology (integration of revelation, reason, and experience), and Axiology (utility values to form a perfect human being). Langgulung's thinking elevates the discussion of IPI from the operational level (Tarbiyah, Ta'lim, Ta'dib) to the philosophical level, providing a solid foundation for IPI as a complete discipline.The ultimate goal is to produce a perfect human being capable of fulfilling the balanced roles of 'Abdullah (servant of God) and Khalifatullah fil Ardh (leader on earth), by optimizing the full potential of human nature. This educational model is considered relevant in contemporary discourse to integrate religious and general knowledge and address the moral crisis.

This research is based on the awareness that music functions both as an artistic expression and as a cosmological representation embedded within the cultural structures of traditional societies. The Siwaluh Jabu traditional house in Lingga Village, North Sumatra, was selected as the object of study to examine the relationship between music and the cosmological views of the Karo people. The purpose of this study is to reveal the meaning of music within cultural practices and rituals carried out in the Siwaluh Jabu House, as well as to explore musical elements that reflect the continuity between humans, ancestors, and the universe. This research employs a qualitative approach, with data collected through literature review, participatory observation, and interviews with traditional leaders and local artists. The data analysis was conducted through data reduction, classification, data presentation, and drawing of conclusion. The results of the study show that music both the vocal mantra “ole…ah…ole” and the Gendang Lima Sendalanen ensemble contains symbolic values that interpret wood as a natural element, sustain social connections between groups, and reinforce the social system embedded in the spatial organization of the Siwaluh Jabu traditional house. Music serves as a medium of spiritual and cultural communication that unites the physical and metaphysical dimensions of life. The implications of this research enrich the perspective of music culture and emphasize the importance of preserving traditional music as a local knowledge system integrated with the cosmology of the Karo people.

This article thoroughly examines Imam Al-Ghazali's views on Islamic education and adab, with an emphasis on a holistic framework that combines knowledge, faith, charity, and morals to form an insān kāmil (perfect human being).  Al-Ghazali, a scholar from Tus, Persia, in the 11th century, defined education as a process of moral development and purification of the soul. The main goal of education is to obtain worldly and spiritual happiness. He opposes the educational paradigm of modern philosophers which focuses only on rationality. He emphasized that knowledge without adab is like fire which has no light.Adab is the main pillar of the educational process and helps children learn noble qualities such as patience, humility and honesty. This is implemented from an early age through spiritual practices such as dhikr and muhasabah.  In his great works, such as Iḥyā' 'Ulūm ad-Dīn, Ayyuhal Walad, and Tahāfut al-Falāsifah, Al-Ghazali combines rationalism with Sufism. He opposed the dichotomy between worldly knowledge (such as medicine and mathematics) and the hereafter, claiming that revelation provides a balance to prevent misguidance. His educational methods, based on internalizing values, examples, and ethical discussions, support the role of teachers as moral and spiritual role models and students as ethical learners. This thinking is highly relevant to modern education, especially in Indonesia, where a character-based curriculum is implemented by the Ministry of Education and Culture and institutions such as the State Islamic University (UIN) use a holistic approach to address the moral crisis caused by technological advancements. The main challenge lies with educators who lack an understanding of Sufism, which requires intensive training.

Islamic education has a strategic role in shaping the character, morality, and spirituality of students, but it is faced with complex challenges in the era of social, cultural, and technological transformation. The low pedagogic and professional competence of some teachers, the limitations of digital literacy, the dominance of conventional learning methods, and a less contextual curriculum are significant obstacles. This service program is designed to improve the competence of madrasah teachers through participatory training approaches, intensive mentoring, and strengthening learning communities based on the concepts of Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) and Professional Learning Community (PLC). Activities include initial assessments, competency workshops, the use of learning technology, weekly mentoring, and pre-test and post-test evaluations. The results showed a significant increase in pedagogic competence (28%) and mastery of technology (34%), accompanied by positive changes in motivation, innovative attitudes, and awareness of contextualization of teaching materials. However, time constraints, variations in digital literacy, and institutional support are obstacles that need to be overcome through synergy between stakeholders. These findings underscore the importance of continuous, reflective, and contextual coaching models to strengthen the role of teachers as agents of change in Islamic education.

Malaria remains a significant health issue in the coastal areas of Yapen Islands Regency, particularly among children who are at high risk of morbidity and mortality. To address this, a community empowerment and mentoring activity was conducted in Kampung Turu, the service area of Serui Kota Health Center, with the aim of increasing knowledge and practices related to malaria prevention through a community-based education approach. The program involved 60 respondents and was carried out in three stages: preparation, implementation, and monitoring and evaluation. The interventions included malaria education, demonstrations on the use of insecticide-treated bed nets, environmental management, and training community health workers as education agents. Pre–post test evaluations showed an improvement in community knowledge and awareness regarding malaria prevention in children. The community empowerment approach was proven effective in promoting positive behavioral changes and enhancing the capacity of parents and health workers to carry out sustainable malaria prevention efforts. This program is expected to serve as a model for public health interventions in coastal areas aimed at reducing the risk of malaria in children.  

This research attempts to prove the truth of the Quran with scientific facts based on the meaning of "dabbah" in Surah Ash-Shura 29, placing it within the scientific dialog of astrobiology. This is done by understanding the meaning of the interpretation and then linking it to exoplanet aspects and Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAP) phenomena. This research employs analytical interpretation methodology to examine the literal meaning, as well as the scientific interpretation approach to explore the relevance of the verses to contemporary knowledge. It contributes to scientific interpretation as an epistemological bridge between revelation and science, and offers a relevant interpretation framework for the development of contemporary Islamic studies. The study results indicate that classical commentators interpreted "dabbah" as a creature that moves on the surface of the earth, but modern science has expanded the horizons of interpretation thru the discovery of exoplanets in habitable zones and scientific studies of unexplained atmospheric phenomena. The integration of the two shows that the term "dabbah" does not only have a biological-literal meaning, but can also be read as a reflection of the cosmos on the possibility of extraterrestrial life.

Modern education focuses not only on sharing knowledge but also plays a crucial role in shaping students' character and ethics. This study explores the role of ethics as the foundation of teacher-student relationships, the moral challenges of the digital age, and character education strategies as solutions. Using literature review and conceptual analysis, the study found that values ​​such as honesty, responsibility, politeness, and mutual respect are key to creating harmonious interactions in the learning environment. On the other hand, technological advances and cultural changes present challenges in the form of decreased empathy and the misuse of social media. Therefore, character education based on teacher role models, collaboration, and humanistic discipline needs to be developed. The study's findings emphasize the importance of balancing digital advancements with moral development in realizing ethical and civilized education. The study also reveals that, despite significant challenges facing educators in the digital age, they can utilize technology to support better character formation through an educational model that emphasizes ethics. The role of families and communities is also crucial in supporting this character education, fostering synergy between all parties in creating a generation with noble character.

This study examines the implementation of Project Based Learning (PjBL) in enhancing students’ understanding of moral values in Islamic Religious Education at the tenth grade of MA Yapina. The research is motivated by the urgent need to strengthen character education through learning experiences that are meaningful, contextual, and aligned with the challenges of contemporary moral degradation. Using a descriptive qualitative approach, this study analyzes learning activities, instructional documents, and students’ project outputs to explore how PjBL shapes their comprehension of akhlak as both knowledge and practiced behavior. Findings indicate that PjBL encourages active participation, collaboration, creativity, and reflective thinking, enabling students to interpret moral values through real-life situations and group-based problem solving. Projects assigned to students, such as posters, videos, and thematic presentations, foster deeper understanding because they require the integration of moral concepts into practical tasks. The role of the teacher as a facilitator further supports the learning process by guiding students in inquiry and project management. Despite challenges such as variation in student discipline and time constraints, the overall implementation of PjBL demonstrates positive effects on students’ cognitive and affective grasp of moral values. This study underscores the relevance of PjBL as an innovative pedagogical model for Islamic Religious Education and highlights its potential for strengthening character formation in madrasah settings. It also suggests the need for further research involving direct classroom observations and interviews to enrich empirical evidence on the long-term impact of PjBL on student character development.

Informal workers are a group that contributes significantly to the Indonesian economy, but still have a low level of independent participation in the national health insurance program. This low participation is caused by minimal insurance literacy, income instability, and a lack of awareness of the importance of health protection. This activity aims to empower informal workers to have the ability and willingness to become independent participants in health insurance. The method used is a community-based participatory approach through three main stages: education on the benefits of health insurance, microfinance management training for regular premium payments, and assistance with independent registration for participation. The activity results showed a significant increase in participants' knowledge and understanding of the benefits of health insurance. In addition, there was an increase in the number of informal workers registering as independent participants and demonstrating a commitment to sustainable premium payments. This program demonstrates that community empowerment can be an effective strategy to expand Universal Health Coverage (UHC) and improve the welfare of informal workers through sustainable health protection.
