The Nurul Ikhlas Mosque, also known as Surau Parak Mujua, located in Pakan Akek, Jorong Kajai, Nagari Koto Baru, Solok Regency, is an important center of religious and social activities for the local community. In June 2023, the mosque suffered a major fire that destroyed the entire structure, creating an urgent need to redesign it to be more functional, ergonomic, efficient, and adaptable to local conditions. This community service project aimed to produce an architectural design that not only met structural and functional needs but also accommodated the social aspirations and cultural values of the local community. The methods used in this project included field observations to understand the community's conditions and needs, participatory discussions with local community leaders to explore aspirations and hopes, technical drawings using AutoCAD software, and structural analysis using ETABS to ensure the building's earthquake resistance. Ergonomics were a key consideration in this design, encompassing circulation flow, room dimensions, natural ventilation, and the selection of materials that were friendly and safe for the elderly, children, and people with disabilities. The output of this activity is a variety of design documents, including floor plans, elevations, building sections, floor plans, columns and beams, and 3D visualizations that can be used as a guide for phased construction. This program demonstrates the importance of collaboration between universities and the community in responding to post-disaster infrastructure needs. This knowledge-based, participatory approach is expected to produce a final design that is appropriate to real needs and the local context, and supports better and more sustainable post-disaster recovery.

 Matra Health is a form of health service specifically designed to maintain and improve public health in dynamic, complex, and constantly changing environmental conditions. This service plays a very vital role, especially in facing and handling various types of disasters, both natural disasters such as earthquakes, floods, and landslides, as well as non-natural disasters such as residential fires. One form of non-natural disaster that often occurs in densely populated areas is residential fires. This is caused by various factors such as unsafe electrical installations, a lack of public awareness of the dangers of fire, and buildings that are not resistant to heat or fire. Residential fires not only cause physical damage to buildings and infrastructure, but also cause various health problems, ranging from burns, respiratory problems due to smoke exposure, to psychological trauma, especially in vulnerable groups such as children, the elderly, and pregnant women. In response to these conditions, a dimensional health intervention activity was carried out from June 23 to 26, 2025 in areas affected by the fires under the coordination of the South Sumatra Regional Crisis Center. This activity aims to reduce health risk factors that arise after the fires through a series of actions such as multi-sector health surveillance, public health education, and distribution of logistical assistance. The activity also includes conducting rapid assessments using the Rapid Health Assessment (RHA) method, providing education on fire impact prevention, and distributing supplementary food to vulnerable groups. The results of the activity showed a significant increase in public understanding of the dangers of fire and the importance of preparedness for its impacts. Furthermore, the need to strengthen cross-sectoral coordination, such as health, disaster management, and social sectors, in disaster management was identified. It is hoped that this activity can serve as a model for strengthening community-based emergency response systems.

This study aims to identify various types of hazards found in the Apron of Juanda International Airport Surabaya and analyze their impact on flight operational safety. The apron is a vital area in aviation activities because it is a parking lot for aircraft, the process of boarding and dropping passengers, loading and unloading cargo, and light maintenance activities. The existence of potential hazards in this area can have a direct effect on flight safety if not handled properly. The research method used was qualitative descriptive with data collection techniques through field observations, interviews with apron officers, and documentation during the implementation of On The Job Training. The data obtained is then analyzed to identify potential hazards and evaluate the level of risk. The results of the study show that there are still hazard findings in the apron area, including Foreign Object Damage (FOD) in the form of foreign objects that have the potential to damage aircraft engines, oil or fuel spills that can cause fires, the presence of wild animals in the aircraft movement area, Ground Support Equipment (GSE) that is parked out of place so as to interfere with aircraft movement, and marshalls who do not use Complete Personal Protective Equipment (PPE).  This problem is caused by the weak supervision of the Apron Movement Control (AMC) unit and the low awareness of personnel in implementing a work safety culture. Based on these findings, the author prepared mitigation measures in accordance with the guidelines of Doc 9859 AN/474 concerning the Safety Management Manual, including increasing supervision, enforcing safety standards, and periodic training for all apron personnel. It is hoped that the results of this study can be an evaluation reference for airport management to strengthen the supervision system, reduce the risk of accidents in the apron area, and build a better and sustainable work safety culture.

Gorontalo Province is an area with a high level of disaster vulnerability, both from hydrometeorological disasters such as floods and landslides, as well as geological disasters such as earthquakes. This condition requires an integrated, modern, and sustainable disaster training facility. Unfortunately, until now Gorontalo does not have a representative disaster management education and training center to support community preparedness. This research aims to design a Disaster Management Education and Training Center that not only functions as an education and simulation place, but also integrates green architecture principles to create an environmentally friendly and energy-efficient learning environment. The method used is qualitative descriptive with primary data collection through observation, interviews with stakeholders, and field documentation. Secondary data were obtained from literature studies, disaster architectural precedents, and spatial planning regulatory studies. The design site was chosen in Limboto District with considerations of accessibility, development potential, and geographical conditions. Analysis is carried out on spatial, functional, and climatological aspects to produce an optimal zoning concept and the orientation of building masses according to the tropical climate. The design results show that an area of 19,371 m² can accommodate all space needs with the utilization of KDB of 25.4%. The application of green architecture is realized through the use of environmentally friendly local materials, natural lighting, cross ventilation, solar panels, and rainwater management systems. The simulation facilities for floods, landslides, earthquakes, and fires are designed based on experiential learning so that participants can experience disaster scenarios firsthand. This design is expected to be a model of sustainable tropical disaster architecture, replicate in other disaster-prone areas, and encourage the creation of a disaster-aware culture. This research also opens up further research opportunities related to energy performance evaluation and the application of digital technology in disaster education.

The rapid development of digital technology has significantly influenced educational approaches, particularly in Islamic education for digital native generations. This study analyzes the concept of Islamic education in the digital era based on the book Tarbiyah fi Zaman al-Fitan by Sheikh Dr. Ali bin Yahya al-Haddadi and explores its influence on digital native generations. Using a qualitative approach with library research methodology, this study conducts an in-depth analysis of the primary source supplemented by relevant secondary literature including books, scientific journals, and previous research findings. The research integrates Digital Native theory, Social Cognitive theory, and Connectivism to understand the educational challenges faced by digital natives. The findings reveal four main pillars of Islamic education according to al-Haddadi: parental education, gradual education from early age (tarbiyah tadrijiyyah), creed education (aqidah), and social etiquette education (adab). These pillars effectively serve as protective measures against two main fitnah (trials) in the digital era: syahwat (lust) and syubhat (doctrinal confusion). The study demonstrates that classical Islamic educational concepts remain highly relevant for addressing contemporary digital challenges, providing internal firewall mechanisms, strengthening parental role modeling, and promoting adaptive collaborative learning. This research contributes to the development of Islamic educational frameworks that integrate classical spiritual values with modern digital literacy requirements.

The research with the title Application of Fire and Gas Detection Systems takes place at the North Field Expansion Project (NFXP). The methods used are direct observation, interviews, simulations and literature studies. The objectives of the study were to determine the application of fire and gas detection systems, and  to determine the challenges in the application of fire and gas detection systems in the North Field Expansion Project (NFXP). The results obtained  show that the Fire and Gas Detection System implemented at NFXP is in compliance with international safety standards, and the system is able to detect fire threats and gas leaks with high efficiency through advanced detector technology, automatic response, and integration with other safety systems such as IPS and HVAC. The effectiveness of the system is reflected in the ability to detect threats in less than 5 seconds, with detection coverage that meets the target of 90% by one detector and 85% by two or more detectors. The main challenges in the implementation of fire and gas detection systems include extreme environmental conditions, such as corrosion due to exposure to seawater and high temperatures, and false alarms that reach around 15%. Another obstacle is the lack of technical training for personnel in operating and maintaining the system.

Liquid Petroleum Gas, commonly known as LPG, is widely used in household activities, especially for cooking. However, its flammable nature makes this gas very hazardous if a leak occurs, which can result in an explosion that damages buildings, endangers the safety of those living there, and causes financial losses. Recently, the improper or unsafe use of LPG gas has led to numerous accidents and fires. This raises serious concerns for the people who use it. LPG gas leaks are often difficult to detect due to various factors, such as the absence of the gas's distinctive odor or the absence of people around the leak location. This study aims to detect gas leaks to minimize or prevent fires and LPG gas explosions. The methods in the research that will be carried out include identification, literature study, data collection, design, implementation, system testing, and conclusions. In this study, the design and implementation of an LPG gas leak detection system based on Arduino will be carried out to minimize this risk. The system will use MQ-2 to determine the concentration of LPG gas in the air. When a leak is detected, the Arduino microcontroller will process the input and automatically close the solenoid and activate the buzzer as an alarm. The implementation and testing results concluded that the system can detect LPG leaks above 600 ppm and respond effectively by cutting off the gas supply and providing an audible warning. This system is expected to improve household safety by providing early warning of gas leaks. Future developments may include integration with an Android app for smartphones, enabling more practical remote monitoring.

This study aims to analyze the level of community participation in the “Roti 7 Lapis” program (Response Time 7 Minutes of Free Fire Service) initiated by the Surabaya Fire and Rescue Department. Using a descriptive qualitative approach and Arnstein’s ladder of participation theory, the research explores citizen involvement in reporting, prevention, and early fire response. Data were collected through interviews and observations in two densely populated areas: Sidotopo Jaya and Kedung Rukem. The findings indicate that community participation has reached the "citizen control" level within the partnership stage, although it is not evenly distributed across regions. The main challenges include low public awareness, hoax reports to the 112 call center, and limited access for fire trucks due to environmental conditions. This study demonstrates that the success of the program relies not only on rapid response but also on efforts to foster meaningful community engagement. These findings contribute to the literature on participatory public policy within the context of urban emergency services.

Mangroves are plants whose natural habitat is in coastal areas, they should require the role of coastal communities to manage mangroves. In Pantai Labu District, four types of mangrove plants were found that grow abundantly in the area, namely mangroves (Rhizophora), api-api (Avicennia), nipah (Nypa), and pedada (Sonneratia caseolaris). Although the types of mangroves in this area are quite diverse, unfortunately the community has not utilized them optimally. So far, the community has only taken parts of the mangrove tree trunks to be used as firewood or sold, while the fruit, especially pedada fruit, is often left alone to rot without being utilized. The method in this study uses qualitative descriptive. This study aims to describe and understand the conditions of mangrove utilization and conservation efforts by the community in Pantai Labu District in depth, based on data obtained from observations and interviews with local residents.

Fire extinguishing training using the wet sack method in PKM (Community Service) activities was given to residents of Abadi Jaya Hamlet, Ladang Peris Village. The aim of this service activity is to provide education regarding the importance of knowledge about how to extinguish a fire early if a fire occurs before the fire grows and causes many losses. Before implementing the correct fire extinguishing practice, residents are given material exposure first, and if a light category fire occurs in the environment, use a simple method using wet sacks. Residents are advised to always provide fire extinguishing equipment such as sacks at home as a precautionary measure if a light fire. After providing education through theory, residents were invited to practice how to properly extinguish a fire using wet sacks. This training aims to ensure that residents have direct experience in how to put out a fire so that if a fire occurs, residents do not panic and understand what to do.

Digital image segmentation is essential in image processing, influencing the accuracy of higher-level tasks. Thresholding is widely used, yet identifying optimal threshold values remains challenging. The Firefly Algorithm with Neighbourhood Attraction (FaNA), a metaheuristic approach, is efficient for color image thresholding but underperforms on grayscale images due to suboptimal thresholds. To overcome this, an enhanced version (eFaNA) was developed by integrating a chaotic tent map for population initialization and a Lévy flight-based random walk for improved exploration. eFaNA was compared with FaNA, fuzzy firefly algorithm (FFA), and the standard Firefly Algorithm (FA) in multilevel thresholding of grayscale images. Results demonstrate that eFaNA achieves superior segmentation quality with minimal detail loss, outperforming the others. The average PSNR obtained by eFaNA, FFA, FaNA, and FA was 25.5320 dB, 25.4075 dB, 24.1522 dB, and 24.4506 dB, respectively; average SSIM was 0.8641, 0.8604, 0.8432, and 0.6703; and execution time was 50.5322, 38.7726, 38.7528, and 107.6340 seconds, respectively. This reflects a PSNR improvement of 5.71% over FaNA, 0.49% over FFA, and 4.42% over FA, and an SSIM gain of 2.48% over FaNA, 0.43% over FFA, and 28.92% over FA. While eFaNA lags behind FFA and FaNA in execution time by ~11.8 seconds, it significantly outperforms FA. The performance gain is attributed to the chaotic tent map’s diverse initialization and the Lévy flight’s enhanced search capability. These improvements enable eFaNA to deliver consistently better threshold values and segmentation results. However, its relatively higher computational cost may limit applicability in real-time image processing.
