The purpose of this activity is to find out how much knowledge the local community in Patimban Village has regarding the internet to avoid fraud on online shopping sites or E-commerce. This Community Service Activity uses a field observation method (direct observation) by visiting people's homes through the distribution of information paper. The results of the activity concluded: first, online fraud is in principle the same as conventional fraud through the use of electronic systems (computers, internet, telecommunications devices) as a criminal act of fraud based on Law Number 11 of 2008 concerning Information and Electronic Transactions. Law enforcement officers often experience difficulties and obstacles in ensnaring perpetrators of fraud; and second, this criminal act of fraud can be charged with Article 378 of the Criminal Code as a criminal act of fraud or Article 28 paragraph (1) of the ITE Law concerning the regulation of the spread of false and misleading news that is detrimental to consumers. Or it can be charged based on both articles at once, namely, 378 of the Criminal Code in conjunction with Article 28 paragraph (1) in conjunction with Article 45 paragraph (1) of Law No. 11 of 2008 concerning fraud and/or ITE crimes.

Collaboration between international organisations and educational institutions plays a strategic role in developing an inclusive and sustainable Islamic economy. The Chiba Islamic Culture Centre, as a community-based organisation in Japan, and PTIQ University, as an Islamic educational institution in Indonesia, have great potential to integrate Islamic values into the development of a Sharia-based economy. This article aims to initiate and strengthen cooperation between these two institutions, focusing on community empowerment through an Islamic economic approach. The methodology employed utilises a qualitative descriptive approach, incorporating data collection techniques such as interviews, observations, and document reviews. The expected outcome is the establishment of a strategic cooperation model that can be practically implemented, covering empowerment programs based on zakat, waqf, and technology, as well as the formation of an Islamic economic ecosystem capable of improving the welfare of the target community. This article also identifies challenges and opportunities in program implementation, providing recommendations for the sustainability of this cross-border collaboration

Violations of campaign regulations in Indonesian elections, such as using places of worship for legislative candidate campaigns, remain common and are strictly prohibited under Article 521 in conjunction with Article 280 paragraph (1) letter h of Law Number 7 of 2017 on Elections. A notable case is the decision of the Kotabumi District Court Number 43/Pid.Sus/2024/PN Kbu, which sentenced a legislative candidate to one month of imprisonment and a fine of IDR 5 million. This study analyzes the judge’s considerations in this case using normative and empirical juridical approaches through literature reviews and interviews. The findings show that the judge considered juridical, philosophical, and sociological aspects, not only relying on formal legality but also on social and moral values within the community. Factors influencing the judge’s considerations include personal integrity, institutional pressure, and understanding of law and justice. The sentence was imposed as a form of guidance and deterrence, not merely punishment. The study recommends enhancing judges’ understanding of philosophical and sociological values through continuous training, active legal education by the Election Supervisory Board (Bawaslu) to political parties and the public, and regulatory evaluation to ensure laws adapt to social changes. Judges are expected to maintain independence and act firmly without interference to establish a clean and integrity-based judicial system.  

Stunting is a chronic nutritional issue that significantly affects children's long-term growth and development. One of its primary causes is the lack of knowledge among mothers and families about balanced nutrition and the skills to manage household income effectively. This community engagement program aimed to enhance the knowledge of mothers and families through leaflet-based education on child nutrition and household income management for stunting prevention.The activity was conducted in the working area of Puruk Cahu Public Health Center, Central Kalimantan, involving 30 housewives with children under five years old. The education was delivered through lectures using both leaflet and PowerPoint media, and the implementation consisted of three stages: preparation, implementation, and evaluation. The results showed that empowering mothers and families through leaflet media is an effective educational strategy. After the intervention, participants showed a significant improvement in understanding the importance of early nutritional intake, the concept of balanced nutrition, and simple strategies for managing household finances to meet their children's nutritional needs. In addition, participants became more aware of the family's active role in ensuring quality food consumption for children and the long-term impacts of malnutrition.It is expected that this increased knowledge will enable mothers and families to become agents of change in preventing stunting and fostering an environment that supports optimal child growth and development.

This study discusses the practice of inheritance distribution before the parents' death among the Muslim community in Medan Tembung District. This phenomenon reflects the dynamic interplay between Islamic law, customary law, and social practices in the division of inheritance. According to Islamic law, inheritance can only be distributed after the death of the testator. However, in Medan Tembung, early distribution is often carried out to avoid conflicts among heirs. This research uses a socio-legal approach with an empirical method based on field observations. The findings show that the community applies three inheritance systems: individual, matrilineal, and parental/bilateral. The distribution is conducted through hibah (grants) or wasiat (wills), typically documented in a written statement and often legalized by local community leaders or notaries. Cultural factors, education levels, and legal awareness significantly influence the variation in distribution systems. Most families still distinguish between the inheritance shares of sons and daughters, with sons typically receiving a larger portion. Community leaders play a vital role in mediating disputes, and if consensus is not reached, legal channels are pursued. These findings highlight the importance of legal education and the need for synergy among religious law, customary practices, and state law to ensure fairness in inheritance distribution.

This research is a form of community service. This activity aims to develop creative skills, build entrepreneurial spirit, and increase awareness of the importance of maintaining local cultural values. Because the preservation of songket cloth as a cultural heritage and form of local wisdom of Indonesia faces challenges amidst the flow of modernization and declining interest of the younger generation. To overcome this, socialization and training activities were carried out on making hijab brooches and hair clips from songket cloth for housewives in the Bukit Barisan Housing Complex, Pekanbaru. Data collection techniques in qualitative research are by conducting observations, interviews, and documentation results. The results of this study indicate that participants are able to understand the techniques of making accessories, are enthusiastic about innovating, and show interest in developing small businesses based on local products. This activity proves that the use of local wisdom through an educational and creative approach can be a strategy for economic empowerment as well as cultural preservation.

Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) are business activities that have an important role in expanding employment opportunities and providing broad economic services for the community. However, the obstacles faced by MSMEs are the lack of ability and understanding due to low education and the assumption that the implementation of financial report recording is difficult. Therefore, this study is very interesting because it aims to test the application of SAK EMKM in the preparation of financial statements, especially regarding the application of SAK EMKM in the preparation of financial statements understood by micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs). This study uses descriptive research with qualitative methods. The data collection used was interviews, observations, and documentation. Based on the findings of the research discussion, it can be concluded that Batik Lea Collection MSMEs have not implemented SAK EMKM in the preparation of their financial statements. This is mainly due to the owner's limited knowledge and understanding of accounting and financial reporting standards. Although the owners know about the existence of SAK EMKM, they lack knowledge about its implementation. Evidence from direct observation and documentation shows that Batik Lea Collection MSMEs only record cash inflows and outflows. Owners create bookkeeping reports that can only be understood by themselves  

This research is motivated by several factors that cause voter behavior in the regional head election in Banjar City. The purpose of this study is to determine voter behavior in the Regional Head Election in Banjar City. The method used in this study is descriptive analysis. There are 7 informants. Data collection techniques are literature studies, field studies (observations and interviews) and documentation. The author uses qualitative data analysis techniques through data processing from interviews and observations to draw conclusions so that they can answer the problems in the study. Based on the results of the study, it is known that: voter behavior in Banjar City is still dominated by the tendency of traditional voters and skeptical voters. This is evidenced by the problem of many voters who determine their choices based on following suit if most of their environment chooses a candidate pair, in addition, voters in determining their political choices are based on information obtained from their parents or from their environment, there are voters who are reluctant and lazy to pay attention to political contestation. There are obstacles to voter behavior in the regional head election in Banjar City, including unequal access to information so that people only get political information from unverified social media. In addition, the practice of money politics is still a reality that is difficult to avoid, where direct assistance or certain promises are the main considerations in choosing candidate pairs as well as past experiences. To overcome various obstacles, a number of efforts have been made, including the Banjar City General Election Commission (KPU) implementing a voter education program through direct outreach to the community, especially in villages and densely populated areas.

Bullying is a social and psychological issue that frequently occurs in elementary school settings, including madrasah ibtidaiyah.

Community-based waste management is a strategic step toward achieving sustainable development in Gresik Regency, Indonesia. This policy aims to reduce waste volume, raise community awareness, and support the vision of a Green Regency. This study evaluates the implementation and effectiveness of community-based waste management policies using a qualitative case study approach. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and document analysis, then analyzed thematically to identify supporting and hindering factors influencing program success. The findings indicate that while progress has been made, significant challenges remain, including low levels of socialization, limited infrastructure, and weak inter-agency coordination. Community participation depends heavily on local leaders and facilitators, and the sustainability of institutions such as waste banks and management groups has yet to be evenly distributed. Adequate infrastructure, such as integrated waste processing facilities (TPS3R), is crucial and needs enhancement. Barriers like a lack of technical experts, cultural habits of indiscriminate waste disposal, and insufficient funding hinder the achievement of policy objectives. This evaluation underscores the necessity for increased education, institutional strengthening, and improved infrastructure to accelerate behavioral change and boost community participation. The results are expected to inform local government strategies for more effective implementation toward realizing a sustainable and environmentally friendly Gresik. An integrated and holistic approach is essential for optimizing waste management, creating a cleaner, healthier, and sustainable environment.

A 52-year-old female patient presented to the non-communicable disease clinic at the Banda Baro Community Health Center with complaints of pain in the right toe joint for the past two weeks. The pain was described as severe, especially when touched or moved. The patient reported that the toe initially became red and swollen, but the redness had subsided by the time she arrived at the clinic. The patient also complained of feeling weak and occasional tingling in the tips of her toes. She admitted to frequently consuming chicken liver and other offal. She mentioned having experienced a similar condition previously, and previous examinations indicated elevated uric acid levels.

Primary data was obtained through anamnesis and physical examination by conducting home visits, filling out family folders, and completing patient records. Assessment was based on the initial, ongoing, and final holistic diagnosis of the visit.  Interventions included education on the importance of clean and healthy living habits, avoiding risk factors, medication adherence, and preventing complications that may arise due to hyperuricemia.

Entrepreneurship training is a key strategy for empowering village economies, especially among youth from Karang Taruna and PKK members. In Kaladawa Village, local potential such as agriculture and handicrafts has not been fully utilized due to limited entrepreneurial knowledge and exposure. This program aims to enhance participants' entrepreneurial competencies through practical-based training methods, including interactive lectures, group discussions, and business simulations. A participatory approach was implemented to help participants identify local potentials, develop business ideas, and formulate digital-based marketing strategies. The results of the training indicate a significant improvement in participants’ understanding of entrepreneurship, as reflected in the emergence of innovative business plans focused on local and digital products.

The Liga 1 Independent Campus Competition Program (PKKM) is an initiative of the Ministry of Education, Culture, Research, and Technology which aims to provide opportunities for students to learn outside the classroom through structured internship activities. The Independent Learning Independent Campus (MBKM) internship program is designed to equip students with readiness to enter the business and industrial world (DUDI), as well as implement course theory through hands-on work practice in the field. The MBKM internship activity which was carried out in Bongo Village, Batudaa Pantai District, Gorontalo Regency, aimed to provide real experience to students in village financial management. Bongo Village was chosen as the location of the internship because of its reputation as the best village in the region. The intern students converted the courses that had been programmed with the practice of implementing the village financial system based on the Siskeudes application. Through this activity, students not only understand the theory of public financial management, but also gain technical and social skills in interacting with village officials and the community. The results of the internship activities show that students are able to understand and operate the Siskeudes system effectively. The knowledge and skills gained are expected to be implemented in nine other villages in Bone Bolango District, as a form of real contribution to more transparent and accountable village financial governance. This program proves that collaboration between universities and village governments can have a positive impact on human resource capacity building and village governance. Thus, MBKM internships are a strategic means in supporting the transformation of higher education that is relevant to the needs of the community and regional development.

The Three Threats to Reproductive Health (KRR Triad) refer to serious issues that can endanger adolescent reproductive health: sexually transmitted infections (STIs), HIV/AIDS, and drug abuse. These threats often lead to harmful consequences such as reproductive diseases, unintended pregnancies, abortion, and drug addiction. The root causes include insufficient knowledge among adolescents and negative attitudes toward prevention efforts. This Community Service initiative, titled Empowerment of Adolescents with Behavior Toward the Three Basic Threats to Reproductive Health (KRR Triad), was conducted in Bangun Rejo Village, Tanjung Morawa District, Deli Serdang Regency, in 2025. The program aimed to increase adolescents’ understanding of the KRR Triad, including its definitions, categories, impacts, and prevention strategies, while also fostering a proactive attitude among youth in addressing these threats. The participants were adolescents residing in Bangun Rejo Village. The activities were conducted from March to May 2025. The method involved a lecture-based educational session, accompanied by a pre-test and post-test to measure the participants’ knowledge and understanding. Prior to the intervention, 46.6% (14 participants) demonstrated poor knowledge regarding the KRR Triad. After the educational sessions, knowledge significantly improved, with 56.6% (17 participants) showing increased understanding. These findings indicate that structured education on reproductive health threats can effectively enhance adolescents' knowledge and potentially influence their behavior toward healthier choices. In conclusion, the community service program successfully empowered adolescents in Bangun Rejo Village with essential knowledge and awareness regarding the KRR Triad, underlining the importance of continuous reproductive health education to mitigate the risk of future health problems among youth

Cases of child sexual abuse in Indonesia continue to show an alarming trend and have serious physical, psychological and social impacts on victims. This research aims to analyze the legal and social implications of these criminal acts and formulate responsive and adaptive legal protection strategies. The research method uses a normative-juridical approach through a literature study, supported by secondary data from scientific journals, laws and regulations, and official reports. The results of the study show that although child protection regulations have been regulated in Law Number 35 of 2014 and Law Number 12 of 2022, their implementation still faces obstacles, such as weak law enforcement, lack of assistance services, and low public legal awareness. Protection strategies based on the victim's perspective, community legal education, and utilization of digital technology are proposed as solutions. This research recommends inter-agency synergy and the strengthening of a legal system that is adaptive to social and digital developments

Climate change represents an urgent global crisis that demands immediate and collaborative action. In Indonesia, youth have emerged as crucial stakeholders in the implementation of climate change policies. This study explores the strategic role of young people in advancing climate action, focusing on their engagement through two major non-governmental organizations: WALHI (Wahana Lingkungan Hidup Indonesia) and Greenpeace Indonesia. Adopting a qualitative library research method, the study examines secondary sources, reports, and publications to assess how these organizations empower and mobilize youth in climate advocacy. The findings highlight that youth are not passive observers but active contributors to climate governance. Through educational campaigns, social media activism, public demonstrations, and grassroots initiatives, young individuals raise environmental awareness, promote sustainable practices, and exert social and political pressure on government institutions. Their participation fosters democratic engagement, enhances policy responsiveness, and encourages the inclusion of long-term environmental perspectives in national and regional development agendas. Furthermore, youth play a critical role in bridging scientific knowledge with community-based practices, often initiating innovative and context-sensitive solutions tailored to local environmental challenges. Their digital literacy and ability to build networks across diverse societal sectors amplify their effectiveness in shaping public discourse and influencing policy outcomes. This study concludes that empowering youth is fundamental to achieving meaningful and lasting climate action. Their involvement strengthens both mitigation and adaptation efforts, positioning them as key agents of change who are not only directly impacted by climate change but also committed to securing a more sustainable and just environmental future for Indonesia.
