Stunting remains a significant child health issue in Indonesia, particularly in Bulungan Regency, with prevalence rates demanding multisectoral interventions. Low socioeconomic factors play a crucial role in stunting incidence due to limited access to nutritious food and healthcare services. This community service aims to optimize rice waste, especially straw and husks, as alternative energy sources to empower local economies and prevent stunting in Sajau Hilir Village. A participatory method was employed through direct education and training involving the PKK women's group. The activities focused on socializing the processing of rice waste into economically valuable products such as rice husk charcoal briquettes and biosensitizers from rice straw. The results showed increased knowledge and skills among community members in converting waste into environmentally friendly and marketable alternative energy products. Utilizing rice waste not only reduces agricultural waste but also opens new economic opportunities sustainably and independently, strengthening family economic resilience and enhancing the ability to meet children's nutritional and healthcare needs. Thus, optimizing rice waste provides a strategic contribution to integrating environmental management and accelerating stunting reduction through local economic empowerment. Recommendations include strengthening community institutions, developing joint business units, and fostering collaboration between universities and local governments.

Digital transformation has reshaped community life by increasing internet dependency in daily communication, financial transactions, and public services. However, this rapid development has also intensified cybersecurity risks, particularly link-based scams and the misuse of Artificial Intelligence (AI). Limited digital literacy at the family level makes communities vulnerable to phishing attacks, personal data breaches, and AI-generated fraud. This community service program aimed to strengthen digital literacy among residents of RW 03 Kalipancur, Semarang, through participatory education focusing on link scam detection and responsible AI usage. The program involved interactive lectures, case discussions, simulations, and pre-test and post-test evaluations with 18 participants from family groups, PKK cadres, and elderly residents. The results showed a significant increase in understanding, from an average pre-test score of 43% to a post-test score of 84%. Beyond knowledge improvement, participants demonstrated increased awareness and behavioral change toward safer digital practices. The findings suggest that community-based participatory approaches effectively enhance family-level digital resilience and can serve as a replicable empowerment model in other communities facing similar digital threats.

This study aims to analyze the quality of notarial services in the drafting of sale and purchase deeds at the Office of Notary–PPAT Pramudita Kartikasari, S.H., M.Kn., with a focus on factors influencing client satisfaction. The research background is grounded in the essential role of notaries in ensuring legal certainty in land transactions, which requires services that are prompt, transparent, and professional. The research employed a descriptive qualitative approach through in-depth interviews, observation, and documentation, analyzed using Miles and Huberman’s interactive model. The findings indicate that service quality can be explained through the five SERVQUAL dimensions. In terms of tangibles, physical facilities were considered adequate, although the waiting area and technological equipment remained limited. The reliability dimension showed that deeds produced were legally valid and accurate, yet completion time was not always consistent. Responsiveness was generally satisfactory, though online responses were less prompt. Assurance emerged as the main strength, as the notary was able to provide legal certainty, clear explanations, and professional conduct, while empathy was reflected through attentiveness, flexibility, and personalized care for clients. Assurance and empathy were found to be dominant in enhancing satisfaction, whereas tangibles, reliability, and responsiveness require improvement. The study implies the need for facility improvements, better time management, and standardized communication, while maintaining legal certainty and empathy as the core values of notarial service.

This study aims to systematically review performance measuring factors in MSMEs in the digital era in Indonesia. The research method uses Systematic Literature Review (SLR) with the design of the PRISMA framework. The data sources used were obtained from various databases of quality scientific publications including emerald, taylor and francis, springerlink, and sciencedirect, with a time span from January 2020 to June 2025. A total of 24 international scientific articles published in the period were analyzed for further identification on the main trends, main topics, and research directions. The results of the study show that the role of digital transformation has become an important factor in shaping the performance of MSMEs in the modern era. The factors that measure the performance of MSMEs are related to entrepreneurial competence, adaptation to technology, innovation ability, and government support. Some of these supporting factors also support resilience and sustainability for micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs). However, the success of work achievements for business actors cannot be separated from adequate organizational readiness and resources, as well as good governance. This study contributes academically in the form of a conceptual framework for performance improvement measures for MSMEs, as well as providing recommendations as strategies for micro, small, and medium business actors to increase productivity so that businesses can grow and be sustainable in the digital era.

This study aims to explore how gold price volatility influences customers’ investment decisions in Islamic banks within the framework of Islamic values. Employing a qualitative phenomenological approach, the research investigates the perceptions, motivations, and strategies of twelve active customers of Bank Syariah Indonesia in Surabaya through in-depth interviews. The findings reveal that gold price volatility does not necessarily reduce investment interest; instead, it stimulates adaptive and reflective behavior grounded in religious commitment and Islamic financial literacy. Investment decisions are shaped by three main factors: rational risk perception, religious conviction in the permissibility of gold as an Islamic instrument, and trust in the integrity of Islamic financial institutions. Thus, gold price volatility is interpreted not only as an economic signal but also as a social and spiritual phenomenon that fosters financial maturity among investors. The study concludes that faith-driven investment behavior contributes to financial resilience and moral stability amid market uncertainty. These insights enrich the field of Islamic behavioral finance by highlighting the integration of economic rationality and spiritual values in investment decision-making.

This paper analyzes the relevance of the Frankfurt School’s Critical Theory in shaping public policy in Indonesia’s trade sector, particularly in the context of implementing Law Number 7 of 2014 on Trade. Using key concepts of Critical Theory—such as alienation, reification, instrumental rationality, and emancipation—this study evaluates how the structure of modern political economy can generate social inequality, the marginalization of small business actors, and the dominance of market-driven logic in national trade practices. A thematic analysis approach based on a literature review is employed to examine relevant scholarly works, including theories from Adorno, Horkheimer, Habermas, and contemporary critical theorists. The findings indicate that trade policies tend to be technocratic, efficiency-oriented, and insufficiently reflective of economic democracy, social justice, and empowerment principles for grassroots economic actors as mandated by the constitution. Such conditions reproduce structural injustices, particularly for MSMEs, which are often marginalized within a competitive trade system dominated by large capital. Therefore, more inclusive, participatory policy designs that are sensitive to structural inequalities are urgently needed. This study concludes that Critical Theory serves as a robust conceptual framework for analyzing power relations within the trade sector while also offering a transformative direction for policy development. Strengthening deliberative public spheres, enhancing MSME protection, and transforming power relations are essential steps toward achieving trade policies that are fairer, more humanistic, and emancipatory.

Investments in information technology (IT) often fail to deliver the expected added value due to excessive dependence on external suppliers, inflexible technological systems, or infrastructures that are highly vulnerable to various operational and security risks. This article analyzes organizational strategies to ensure the realization of added value from IT investments through the integration of strategic alignment and comprehensive risk management practices. By implementing strategic alignment, organizations are able to synchronize IT initiatives with core business objectives, organizational processes, and long-term strategic goals. At the same time, effective risk management plays a crucial role in reducing detrimental dependencies, including risks related to data breaches, system failures, cyber threats, and operational disruptions. This approach is supported by an extensive review of literature from credible and relevant academic sources, which demonstrates that systematic risk mitigation can significantly enhance organizational resilience, reliability, and overall value creation from IT investments. As a result, organizations are better positioned to optimize performance, improve decision-making capabilities, and ultimately achieve a sustainable competitive advantage in an increasingly digital business environment.

This article examines the implications of parental verbal violence on the socio-emotional development of early childhood aged 3–6 years. The study was conducted through an extensive literature review supported by general field observations in community settings. The purpose of this research is to describe the phenomenon of verbal violence experienced by young children, analyze its effects on their emotional security, self-confidence, and social adaptation, and identify contributing factors from both the family environment and parental characteristics. Using a qualitative descriptive approach, relevant books, journal articles, and institutional reports were synthesized to construct a comprehensive understanding of how negative communication patterns shape children’s socio-emotional development. The findings indicate that verbal violence such as yelling, scolding, insulting, labeling, and threatening can disrupt children’s emotional regulation, lower their self-esteem, and hinder their ability to interact positively with peers. Repeated exposure to harsh language also increases the risk of anxiety, aggression, and social withdrawal. Conversely, positive, supportive, and empathetic parental communication fosters emotional resilience, empathy, and healthy social behavior. This article highlights the urgent need for parents, educators, and communities to strengthen awareness regarding the harmful impact of verbal violence and to promote nurturing communication practices that support the holistic development of young children.

The development of traditional markets is increasingly threatened by market transformation, both physically and through online sales systems (e-commerce). This study aims to analyze the forms of resilience implemented by clothing vendors at Wage Market, Tulungagung, in maintaining their business continuity amidst declining market conditions. This study uses a qualitative approach with a case study research design. This research utilizes James S. Coleman's Rational Choice Theory. The methods used are observation, interviews, and documentation. The subjects in this study were six people consisting of four clothing vendors, the Head Coordinator of Wage Market, and the Heads of Market Technical Implementation Units throughout Tulungagung Regency. Subject selection was based on a purposive sampling technique. The results show that the forms of trader resilience consist of economic, innovation, social networks, and psychological aspects.

Inflation, unemployment, and deflation are three fundamental macroeconomic phenomena that are closely interconnected in influencing a nation’s economic stability. These variables illustrate the equilibrium between production capacity, consumption behavior, and government intervention in achieving sustainable economic growth. The main purpose of this study is to explore the interrelationship between inflation, unemployment, and deflation, and to assess their implications for Indonesia’s economic stability. This research applies a qualitative descriptive method, employing literature reviews, document analysis, and secondary data evaluation derived from credible institutions such as the Central Bureau of Statistics (BPS), Bank Indonesia (BI), and the Ministry of Finance. The results suggest that a moderate level of inflation can positively stimulate economic expansion through increased consumption and investment activities. In contrast, excessive inflation tends to erode consumer purchasing power and potentially elevate unemployment rates. Meanwhile, prolonged deflationary conditions may lead to a decline in product prices, reduced business profitability, and slower economic momentum. The interaction among these three factors is complex and dynamic, necessitating a coordinated balance between fiscal and monetary policies to safeguard overall economic stability. This study concludes that effective inflation control, job creation, and deflation prevention are critical elements in strengthening Indonesia’s long-term economic resilience.
