Regional Head Elections (Pilkada) are crucial for upholding popular sovereignty and realizing democracy. This research aimed to examine the level of political participation among voters with disabilities and the factors contributing to their low engagement in the 2024 Pilkada in Baregbeg District. The research method used was qualitative with a descriptive approach, involving field studies, literature reviews, and data analysis. The results showed that while the 2024 Pilkada in Baregbeg District, Ciamis Regency, was successfully executed, the participation of voters with disabilities was very low, at only 29.93% of the 294 registered voters. This low participation was caused by external micro factors such as non-inclusive socialization (lack of assistive tools), suboptimal voter education, budget limitations, ineffective 'jemput bola' mechanisms, insufficient family support, unfriendly polling station locations, and minimal initiatives from stakeholders and disability organizations. Additionally, internal macro factors of disabled individuals also played a role, including communication limitations (for those with hearing, visual, speech, and intellectual impairments), differences in information access and mobility, varying levels of understanding, low organizational awareness, and limited scope of movement and social interaction. The socialization efforts already undertaken have not been able to significantly increase participation, indicating the need for a more comprehensive and inclusive approach.

According to Article 2 paragraph (1) of Law Number 1 of 1974 concerning Marriage, a marriage is considered valid if it is conducted according to the laws of the respective religion and beliefs. Marriage is not merely a physical union but also an emotional bond, and fundamentally follows the principle of monogamy. In the legal framework of marriage, state protection—particularly for wives and future children—can only be guaranteed if the marriage is consciously conducted in accordance with Law Number 1 of 1974, which includes the requirement that the marriage be officially registered under applicable laws and regulations.If a marriage is not registered, the state cannot provide legal protection concerning marital status, joint property, inheritance, and other rights arising from the marriage. To establish a wife’s rights, it must first be proven that a legal marriage exists between her and her husband. One legal consequence of an unregistered marriage is that neither the wife nor any children from the marriage have the right to claim support or inheritance from the husband. Islamic inheritance laws allocate shares specifically to blood relatives.Unregistered marriages—often called sirri, kiyai, or syar’i marriages—are conducted according to religious rules or customs but are not registered with the Marriage Registrar. In Chinese customary law, property acquired during marriage is influenced by a patrilineal kinship system, where the wife’s status is governed by the husband’s family law. Generally, the husband, as head of the household, controls all marital property and has absolute rights to use it without needing the wife’s consent, including in transferring joint property.

Anemia during pregnancy is a public health issue that remains a challenge in developing countries, including Indonesia. Iron tablets are recommended as the primary intervention to prevent anemia, but compliance among pregnant women in taking iron tablets varies and is influenced by various factors, including health worker counseling. This study aims to analyze the relationship between the intensity of cadre assistance and the level of compliance with TTD consumption among pregnant women at the Tomalou Community Health Center, Tidore Kepulauan City. The study design used an observational analytical approach with a cross-sectional method. The study sample consisted of 30 pregnant women selected using total sampling technique. The independent variable was the intensity of cadre assistance, while the dependent variable was the level of compliance with TTD consumption. Data were collected using observation sheets, consumption monitoring forms, and respondent identity questionnaires, then analyzed using Spearman's rank correlation test at a significance level of 0.05. The results showed that most respondents were compliant in consuming TTD, but there was no significant relationship between the intensity of cadre assistance and the level of compliance with TTD consumption (r = 0.036; p = 0.848). This study concluded that the frequency of assistance alone was not sufficient to influence TTD consumption compliance, thus requiring a more comprehensive, educational assistance approach that involved family support. These findings could form the basis for evaluating the cadre assistance program in preventing anemia in pregnant women.

This Community Service activity aims to increase the capacity of women farmer groups (KWT) in developing human resources (HR) in the agricultural sector. KWT plays a crucial role as agents of change in improving food security and family welfare. However, limited knowledge, managerial skills, and access to technology are often major obstacles. The research method used was a qualitative approach with a case study technique. Data were collected through participant observation, in-depth interviews, and Focus Group Discussions (FGDs) with KWT members. The results showed that capacity building can be achieved through several strategies, including: 1) Continuous training on innovative cultivation techniques, financial management, and agricultural product marketing; 2) Intensive mentoring by agricultural extension workers in implementing new practices; and 3) Facilitating access to resources such as capital, market information, and appropriate technology. This capacity building not only increases agricultural productivity but also strengthens women's economic independence, self-confidence, and strategic roles in decision-making at the community level. Thus, strengthening KWT in human resource development is an important investment to realize a more sustainable and gender-equitable agriculture. Furthermore, this community service activity highlights the importance of community participation in maintaining the program's sustainability. Active participation by KWT members in every stage of the program, from planning to evaluation, is crucial to ensuring that the program is tailored to local needs and conditions. Through collaboration between KWT, agricultural extension workers, and various other stakeholders, such as microfinance institutions and local governments, it is hoped that an ecosystem will be created that supports the growth and development of an inclusive and sustainable agricultural sector. This program is expected to have a long-term impact, not only on the welfare of KWT members but also on improving food security at the community level.

This study aims to analyze the availability of data centers and regional promotion needs in supporting e-government implementation through the Family Information System Application (SIGA) at BKKBN Gorontalo Province. It also assesses how SIGA and its integrated dialog features contribute to public services. The findings indicate that data input in SIGA has reached 100%, covering family planning services, field supervision, and families at risk of stunting, both in monthly and annual reports. However, this completeness does not fully reflect field realities, particularly regarding youth groups outside formal education who remain underdocumented. Despite this, SIGA data has become a reference for regional health information policy development. Overall, SIGA has improved public service efficiency through fast, accurate, and timely data delivery. Yet, the system remains limited in providing interactive, two-way communication between government and citizens. This study recommends enhancing SIGA’s dialog function and engaging underrepresented community groups to support inclusive and responsive public services.

The family is an essential unit consisting of two or more individuals living together due to ties of blood, marriage, or adoption, and it plays a significant role in supporting the health of its members, including those with diabetes mellitus, which can be hereditary. One of the serious complications that often arise in diabetes mellitus patients is diabetic ulcers, which can be prevented through proper foot care practices. In this context, the family has an important role in helping prevent foot injuries by providing support through foot care education. This study aims to describe the implementation of foot care education using audiovisual media as a means to improve the knowledge of diabetes mellitus patients in the working area of Sekaran Public Health Center, Semarang. The research method applied was a case study with a descriptive approach, in which an intervention was carried out through pre-test and post-test assessments related to foot care education using audiovisual media over five days, with the research instrument being the Diabetic Foot Knowledge Scale (DFKS) questionnaire. The results showed an increase in patient knowledge after the intervention, where in subject I the pre-test score was 8 (fair), which increased to 12 (good) in the post-test, while in subject II the pre-test score of 9 (fair) increased to 13 (good) in the post-test. These findings confirm that audiovisual-based foot care education is effective in enhancing the knowledge of diabetes mellitus patients regarding foot care. Based on the results, it is recommended that both patients and their families consistently apply foot care education in their daily activities, and health workers at Sekaran Public Health Center are encouraged to utilize audiovisual education methods as a strategy to improve patients’ knowledge and foot care practices, thereby preventing further complications in diabetes mellitus patients.
