The purpose of Community Service (PKM) is to improve the understanding and ability of business owners and crew members (ABK) in conducting simple and applicable financial analysis. This activity will be carried out in Laha Village, Ambon City, in May 2025 with the main target of the Arumbae ship fishing business actors and their crews. This PKM is carried out in three main stages, namely: the preparation stage, the implementation stage, and the monitoring and evaluation stage. In the preparation stage, an initial approach is made to ship owners and crew members to establish communication and identify specific needs related to understanding and skills in financial analysis. The implementation phase includes training activities that are designed in a participatory and applicable manner, using Microsoft Excel software as the main tool in calculating and analyzing the feasibility of the business. The training material includes business feasibility analysis techniques, cash management, simple financial recording, and profit and loss projections. The benefits felt by the participants were very significant. Business owners now have a better understanding of the importance of financial management, and can prepare a business feasibility analysis independently. They also show an improvement in the ability to prepare simple financial statements, as well as being motivated to develop fishing ventures to a larger and more sustainable scale. Monitoring shows a noticeable increase in understanding and skills after training. This activity also has a positive impact on building an orderly and disciplined financial recording culture, which has not previously been a habit among fishermen. In the future, it is hoped that this training can be replicated to other fishermen groups in the coastal area of Maluku to expand the impact. The conclusion of this activity shows that an educational and practical approach is able to encourage the increase of fishermen's capacity in the financial aspect of business. This activity also opens up opportunities for the development of fishing businesses professionally and oriented towards the sustainability of the local economy.

Adolescence is a transition period from childhood to adulthood marked by various physical, emotional, and social changes. One of the main challenges faced by adolescents is a lack of self-confidence, which can hinder the development of self-potential and social interaction. Based on observations at the Taruna Yodha Sukoharjo Children's Social Service Center, it was found that many adolescents showed an inferior attitude, were afraid of being wrong, and were reluctant to express their opinions in public. Therefore, this community service aims to increase awareness of the importance of self-confidence through interactive socialization. The implementation method includes four stages, namely the presentation of material on the concept of self-confidence, discussion of personal experiences, providing positive affirmations, and ice breaking to build familiarity. This activity was attended by most of the adolescents at the center and succeeded in increasing active participation from 20% to 50%. Although there were still obstacles such as limited time and the difficulty of some participants in expressing themselves verbally, the evaluation results showed an increase in social interaction and enthusiasm in implementing positive affirmations. This activity proves that an interactive approach can be an effective solution in fostering adolescent self-confidence. For more optimal results, ongoing programs such as public speaking training and psychological assistance are needed. It is hoped that teenagers in the shelter can continue to develop their potential and face social challenges with more confidence.

Stingless bee (Trigona sp.) cultivation presents significant potential for livestock diversification, improved food security, and rural economic development. Although this practice offers clear advantages, including low maintenance requirements, minimal environmental risk, and the high nutritional and commercial value of its honey, its adoption in Lempake Subdistrict, North Samarinda, East Kalimantan, remains limited. This situation is primarily due to a lack of community awareness and technical knowledge in apiculture. In response, a community service program was conducted on 10 May 2025 by lecturers from the Faculty of Agriculture, Mulawarman University, in collaboration with local farmer groups and supported by the Samarinda City Government. The program provided structured training through field visits, lectures, interactive discussions, and practical demonstrations at selected apiaries. Post-training evaluations showed a substantial improvement in participants’ understanding of colony management, hygienic honey harvesting, and the economic prospects of stingless bee products. Additionally, the program encouraged entrepreneurial interest and supported the development of value-added functional food products based on local resources. These findings indicate that targeted training and institutional collaboration are effective in promoting sustainable stingless beekeeping practices. Future initiatives should focus on continued technical support and the integration of apiculture products into local and digital markets to enhance competitiveness and economic impact.

This research examines the governance of the National Amil Zakat Agency of Barito Kuala Regency as an effort to optimize transparent, professional, and sharia-compliant zakat management. Although South Kalimantan has the highest zakat potential in Kalimantan Island, its zakat realization is still far from the target, reflecting the challenges of public trust and the effectiveness of the institution's governance. This study aims to evaluate the governance of Barito Kuala National Amil Zakat Agency using three main indicators: Zakat Core Principles Index, Sharia Compliance Index of Zakat Management Organization, and Financial Ratio Analysis. Using a qualitative-descriptive approach, data was collected through observation and internal document analysis. The result shows that the implementation of Zakat Core Principle scores 0.44 (good enough category), while sharia compliance scores 0.72 (good category), and financial ratio shows high efficiency and effectiveness in collecting and distributing zakat. Important findings reveal that the suboptimal documentation of Operational Procedur Standard, absence of internal audit, and high operational burden become obstacles to ideal governance. Although the management of zakat in Barito Kuala National Amil Zakat Agency has been running according to regulations and sharia principles, improvement of institutional structure, documentation, efficiency of human resources, and transparency of financial statements are needed. This research provides a practical contribution as an internal evaluation of the institution and a scientific contribution in the development of accountable and sustainable zakat management in Indonesia.

Regional tourism development is a crucial strategy for driving local economic growth and preserving cultural heritage. However, field conditions often reveal that policy implementation does not always proceed optimally. The Sekarsari Bathing Area in Mojokerto City is one of the tourism sites targeted by development policies, yet it has not demonstrated significant impact on community welfare or tourism attractiveness. This study aims to evaluate the implementation of regional tourism development policies at the Sekarsari site using William N. Dunn’s policy evaluation theory, which includes six criteria: effectiveness, efficiency, adequacy, equity, responsiveness, and appropriateness. This research adopts a qualitative approach with a case study design. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, field observations, and document analysis from various stakeholders such as the tourism office, site managers, local businesses, and community members. The research instruments were developed flexibly and iteratively according to field dynamics. Data analysis was conducted through data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing in an interactive manner. The findings reveal that the tourism development policy at Sekarsari has not yet yielded optimal outcomes. The main weaknesses lie in the lack of community participation, uneven distribution of economic benefits, and limited innovation and promotion. Although there have been improvements in basic infrastructure and a modest increase in visitor numbers, the policy has not been fully responsive to local needs. In conclusion, the current policy does not fully meet Dunn’s six evaluation criteria and requires revisions in both strategic planning and technical implementation. This study recommends that future tourism policies be more community-based, inclusive, and adaptive to local contexts. For future research, a mixed-methods approach involving quantitative and geospatial analysis is suggested to strengthen comprehensive evaluative evidence.
