This study examines the commodification of women’s bodies within environmental campaign content on digital media, focusing on a video produced by Pandawara Group that addresses textile waste issues. Although the campaign aims to raise ecological awareness, the visual emphasis on a female body particularly the exposure of a bra redirected public attention from environmental messages to sexualized interpretations in the comment section. This research aims to analyze how such meaning shifts occur through representation and audience interpretation. Using Sara Mills’ Critical Discourse Analysis, this study focuses on subject–object positioning and reader positioning in both visual and verbal elements of the content. The data consist of one campaign video and selected public comments on TikTok, analyzed qualitatively. The findings reveal that women are positioned as visual objects rather than active subjects within the discourse, while audiences are constructed as observers of the female body instead of interpreters of environmental issues. The recurring use of the phrase “content that unites the nation” further legitimizes sexualized readings and reinforces dominant gendered discourse. Importantly, the study finds that such interpretations are reproduced not only by male audiences but also by female users, indicating the internalization of dominant visual culture in digital spaces. This study contributes to gender and media studies by demonstrating that environmental campaigns are not free from gender bias and that visual representation plays a crucial role in shaping unintended meanings within social campaigns.

Generation Z students face increasingly complex academic challenges within the competitive higher education ecosystem. The pressure to maintain academic performance, social expectations, and intense digital exposure contribute to rising mental health issues such as stress, anxiety, and burnout. This study aims to analyze the relationship between academic pressure and the psychological condition of Gen Z students using a quantitative-descriptive approach through an online survey. The research instrument adapted the Academic Stress Scale (ASS) and the Depression Anxiety Stress Scale (DASS-21). The results show that the majority of respondents experience significant academic pressure, which correlates positively with symptoms of stress and anxiety. These findings highlight the importance of educational system reform that not only emphasizes academic performance but also supports students' mental well-being. Higher education institutions are expected to provide safe spaces, reliable counseling services, and more empathetic teaching approaches in response to the mental health issues facing this generation.

Learning and teaching from the perspective of the Qur'an are not only understood as intellectual activities, but also as spiritual, emotional, and moral processes that shape the whole human personality. Learning is an obligation for every individual to develop their human potential and get closer to Allah SWT, while teaching is seen as worship and a social responsibility in spreading knowledge and good values. This study aims to examine the interpretation of the verses of the Qur'an related to the obligation of learning and teaching, namely QS. At-Taubah: 122, QS. Al-Ghasiyah: 17–20, QS. Al-'Ankabut: 19–20, QS. Al-Qalam: 1–4, and QS. Al-'Alaq: 1–5. The method used is a literature study with a thematic interpretation approach (maudhu'i). The results of the study indicate that the obligation of learning and teaching is lifelong (long life education) and is an important foundation in building an Islamic civilization that is moral, knowledgeable, and competitive.

Toddler age is often called the golden period because during this period brain nerve development occurs, especially myelination, as well as a critical period. The golden period can be achieved if toddlers' nutritional needs are optimally met. On the other hand, if babies and toddlers do not get the food they need, the golden period will change into a critical period, thus disrupting their growth and development. The level of education of parents will affect the health and well-being of children, because this is inseparable from the nutritional status of children. Mothers with a high level of education will have a clearer opportunity to absorb information compared to mothers with less or no education. With a good level of education, it is hoped that a mother will be willing and able to behave well in order to improve her child's nutritional status. This Community Service activity aims to provide health education on balanced nutrition to reduce stunting in the community, especially mothers with toddlers in Desa Cangguk, Kecamatan Tanah Pasir, Kabupaten Aceh Utara.

The traditional homes of indigenous communities in Indonesia are highly vulnerable to natural disasters, particularly earthquakes, due to Indonesia's location in the Pacific Ring of Fire, which experiences high seismic activity. This situation demands the strengthening of traditional buildings to withstand potential earthquakes. Stilt houses, as a form of traditional architecture, possess characteristics that actually support earthquake resilience, such as flexible structures, the use of lightweight materials, and the application of local wisdom passed down through generations. With the development of modern construction techniques, stilt houses have the potential to become safer and more adaptable dwellings to earthquake shocks. However, indigenous communities, particularly those living in earthquake-prone areas and with lower levels of education, often face limited knowledge and skills related to the basic principles of earthquake-resistant construction. This lack of understanding results in traditional house construction without considering structural safety aspects, ultimately increasing the risk of serious damage and even collapse during an earthquake. These impacts not only threaten life but also cause significant material losses. This community service activity aims to improve the preparedness and resilience of the Sentani Indigenous community by developing earthquake-resistant stilt house models, increasing knowledge and skills in earthquake-safe house construction and maintenance, and encouraging the use of innovative technology and materials. The expected outcomes are the creation of model houses that can serve as examples and the dissemination of information on earthquake-resistant construction technology.
