The sustainable management of marine ecosystems and fishery resources is a primary goal of the SDGs (Goal 14). Supporting this objective requires the availability of a cold chain network, including ice factories, to preserve the quality and freshness of fish catches. In the southern coastal area of Sukabumi, particularly Ciwaru Village within the Ciletuh National Geopark, the availability of ice factories remains insufficient. Small fishing vessels (<5 GT) in this area require approximately 6 tons of ice per month. This study aims to design the production capacity of a portable mini ice factory to meet the local ice demand. By considering seasonal patterns, fishing volumes, and fluctuating ice needs, the factory is designed to produce around 788–798 tons of ice per year, with an ice storage capacity of 2 tons. The design utilizes 12 kg ice blocks, adjusted to the vessel sizes commonly used by local fishermen employing one-day fishing methods. The planning results indicate that the establishment of this mini ice factory can address the ice supply shortage in Ciwaru, support the maintenance of fish quality, and enhance the economic value of fishermen’s catches.

Infant and toddler mortality is a global issue and one of the targets of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Mothers and children are family members who should be prioritized in healthcare services. The national coverage of healthcare services for infants, toddlers, and preschool children remains low at 69.9%. Posyandu (Integrated Health Post) is a community-based maternal and child healthcare service (UKBM) organized by and for the community to reduce maternal and child mortality rates. The coverage of mothers with toddlers visiting Posyandu Melati in Kuta Alam District, Banda Aceh City, is only 31.38%, far below the national strategic plan target of 70%. Objective: To determine the relationship between knowledge, attitude, and family support with maternal visits to Posyandu Melati in Kuta Alam District, Banda Aceh City. Research Method: This study used an analytical research design with a cross-sectional approach. The sampling technique employed probability sampling using systematic sampling, with a total of 58 mothers with toddlers. The research instruments included a questionnaire and the Maternal and Child Health (KIA) book. The study was conducted from July 11 to July 13, 2023, at Posyandu Melati, Kuta Alam District, Banda Aceh City. Data processing involved editing, coding, data entry, tabulating, and univariate and bivariate analysis. Research Results: Univariate analysis showed that the majority of respondents had good knowledge (23 respondents, 39.7%), received supportive family support (35 respondents, 60.3%), and had irregular Posyandu visits (30 respondents, 51.7%). Bivariate analysis revealed significant relationship between knowledge (p-value = 0.030), attitude (p-value = 0.015), and family support (p-value = 0.013) with maternal visits to Posyandu. Conclusion and Recommendations: There is a significant relationship between knowledge, attitude, and family/husband support with maternal visits to Posyandu Melati in Kuta Alam District, Banda Aceh City. Healthcare workers should continue providing education and counseling on the benefits of Posyandu in maintaining maternal and child health.

Background:Breastfeeding is expected to help achieve SDGs goal 3, target 2, which is to reduce neonatal mortality to at least 12 per 1,000 live births in all countries by 2030 and stop unnecessary deaths of newborns and children under five. Encouraging healthy breastfeeding is essential to prevent more than 820,000 deaths of children under five each year. Oxytocin massage has been shown to increase the sensation of relaxation, improve sleep quality and comfort, reduce pain and tension, and help increase prolactin and oxytocin levels, which in turn increase breast milk production. Research Method:The research design used the Pre Experimental Design method, namely with the form of a One Group pretest and posttest design without a control group. This study used purposive sampling, with a sample size of 22 respondents. Data analysis used univariate and bivariate. Result:This study showed that the value before oxytocin massage was 16.14 and after oxytocin massage the mean was 27.73. The conclusion of the study shows that the results of the experimental test have a significant value with a p value of 0.000 <0.05. This shows that there is a significant gap in breast milk production between before and after oxytocin massage. Suggestion: It is hoped that midwives at the Lidya Clinic can use this study as input to support increased breast milk production in mothers, especially those in the postpartum period.

This study explores the role of Islamic education in supporting the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) through a library research approach. Islamic education, with its emphasis on moral, spiritual, and social values, aligns closely with the principles of sustainable development. The study reveals that Islamic teachings on justice, equality, social responsibility, and environmental stewardship are in harmony with the goals outlined in the SDGs. Islamic educational institutions contribute to poverty alleviation, environmental awareness, and gender equality through curriculum content and practical programs rooted in Islamic values. However, challenges such as limited curriculum integration and lack of teacher capacity remain obstacles. Therefore, it is essential to enhance the curriculum, empower educators, and build partnerships between Islamic educational institutions and broader development stakeholders to ensure Islamic education becomes a significant agent in achieving the global goals.

The study examines Nigeria's resource allocation and usage as the gap in the country's pursuit of sustainable progress. The primary goal of the study is to investigate how Nigeria has struggled to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) due to inefficient use and distribution of financial, human, and material resources. Human and material resources are essential in every aspect of a company. An organization's ability to advance in all directions might be hindered by poorly managed human and material resources. Resources management offers a systematic assessment, requisitioning, and approval process for the evaluation and acquisition of products, equipment, and resources. The goal of resources management is to continuously seek opportunities to reduce costs and improve performance through the cost-effective selection and standardization of products, equipment, and related processes. A successful and efficient local government system will be preceded by well-managed human resources and material resources. while preserving or raising the standard of the services and care that are offered to the public. Subjectivism serves as the ontological orientation in this study, which employs a qualitative approach grounded in interpretivist philosophy. According to the study's findings, corruption, ethnic prejudices, poor governance, a lack of accountability, a lack of transparency, and unnecessary expenditure on pointless activities have all contributed to Nigeria's egregious inefficiency in resource allocation and use. According to the study's conclusion, Nigeria would be headed toward sustainable development if appropriate project planning, implementation, monitoring, and evaluation were done transparently and resources were used and distributed effectively. Therefore, the report suggests that Nigeria adopt economic and technical efficiencies in the distribution and use of its resources in order to achieve the aims of sustainable development.

This study aims to describe and analyze: The Contribution of Migrant Workers in Increasing Money Remittances and Achieving the SDGs.  The research is a qualitative descriptive analysis. The data analysis technique uses the technique developed by McNabb (2002), namely Grouping the data according to key constructs, Identifying bases for interpretation, Developing generalizations from the data, Testing Alternative interpretations and Forming and/or refining generalizable theory from case study. The results of the study show that migrant workers play an important role in the world economy, especially in developed countries as migration destination countries and contribute to the growth of the economy in their home countries, one of which is through remittances sent to their home countries. Indonesia is one of the countries that still sends migrant workers, where remittances from migrant workers are seen as one of the main sources of foreign exchange after petroleum. Migrant workers contribute to reducing the unemployment rate in Indonesia by: Increasing household income. Helping families left behind not work for a while. Increase family access to capital and credit for entrepreneurship. Encouraging a decrease in child employment rates Helping economic development in the region of origin. Encourage political and social change.  The use of remittances for productive activities is expected to increase investment in recipient countries. Remittances encourage improvements made by households in daily consumption, expenditure on education, health, and other expenses, so that it will affect economic growth. Remittances increase household incomes and are therefore a strong anti-poverty force in developing countries.  Not only that, migrant workers who return to their home countries (return migrants) also contribute to the economic and social conditions of their home countries. Remittances can contribute directly and indirectly to several SDGs. Remittances' contribution to the SDGs: SDG 1: Reduce poverty, SDG 8: Decent work and economic growth SDG 10.c: Reduce the cost of migrant remittance transactions.

This study discusses the design of a promotional video for Tinctori by implementing marketing 5.0 to enhance the effectiveness of marketing sustainable products. Tinctori is a fashion company that utilizes natural dyes, supporting the concept of sustainable fashion and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). However, its current promotional strategy has not been optimal in capturing the attention of its target audience, particularly the upper-middle-class consumers who are environmentally conscious. The findings indicate that applying cinematography in promotional videos can enhance visual appeal, audience engagement, and understanding of Tinctori’s sustainability values. The designed video showcases the natural dyeing process with artistic, transparent, and emotional visuals, strengthening brand identity and increasing consumer purchase interest. Evaluations from videography experts and the target audience confirm that the video effectively conveys the sustainability message and raises awareness of environmentally friendly fashion.

It is hoped that breastfeeding can help achieve SDGs goal 3, target 2, namely efforts to reduce the neonatal mortality rate to at least 12 per 1000 live births in all countries by 2030 and stop unnecessary deaths of newborns and toddlers. Encouraging healthy breastfeeding is so important that it can prevent more than 820,000 deaths of children under five every year. Oxytocin massage has been shown to increase the sensation of relaxation, improve sleep quality and comfort, reduce pain and tension, and help increase prolactin and oxytocin levels, which in turn increases breast milk production.The research design uses the Pre Experimental Design method, namely in the form of a One Group pretest and posttest design without a control group. This research used purposive sampling, with a total sample of 22 respondents. Univariate and bivariate data analysis. The results of this study showed that the value before the oxytocin massage was a mean of 16.14 and after the oxytocin massage the mean was 27.73. The conclusion of this research shows that the results of the experimental test have a significant value with a p value = 0.000 <0.05. This proves that there is a significant difference in breast milk production between before and after oxytocin massage. It is recommended that midwives at the Afisya clinic use this research as input in efforts to increase breast milk production in post partum mothers.

That housing and settlement development by private business entities is compatible with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) or can also be called Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) is a sustainable development agenda initiated and agreed upon by the United Nations. Meanwhile, the construction of houses by individuals or individuals is very inconsistent with the programs or agendas set forth by the national and world governments. Of course, if we examine further, the development carried out by each person is very contrary to "participating in implementing world order" as described in the preamble to the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia. The legal issue of this normative legal research: What is the government's authority in the implementation of housing development? How is the legal protection for people or entities that organize housing development in Law Number 1 of 2011 concerning Housing and Residential Areas? The government's authority in the implementation of housing development includes policy regulation, implementation supervision, housing provision facilitation, inter- government coordination, community empowerment, and education. Through this authority, the government seeks to create a decent and sustainable residential environment for all levels of society. Legal protection for persons or entities that organize housing development is comprehensively regulated in Law No. 1 of 2011 concerning Housing and Residential Areas. Legal protection includes: 1. Community Rights. 2. Developer's Obligations. 3. Sanctions for Violations. 4. The Role of the Government.

The compulsive impact of human-caused climate change is now considered more of an environmental issue than a national security threat. The latest 2030 Agenda, the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), has a transformational vision to achieve universal literacy worldwide, including Indonesia. Addressing climate change is Goal 13 of 17 SDGs. This study uses a qualitative research method with a linear research strategy to develop hybrid-education media in the form of printed pamphlet media with Augmented Reality (AR) technology applications that run on the Web platform, namely WebAR. The procedure is triggered by the target image of the pamphlet, and the basic HTML structure uses the A-Frame 3D framework. This framework allows for 3D modeling and animation to be loaded into WebAR. This study shows that WebAR-based hybrid-education media can be used as an interactive means to study climate change issues and increase awareness and understanding of climate actions relevant to Goal 13 of the SDGs. The results also show that this media can increase public engagement in combating climate change issues.

Women's leadership in work teams or organizations is currently increasing. This shows the impact of the gender mainstreaming movement which is one of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Apart from that, based on 2018-2021 McKinsey research, the results showed that women's leadership can create an egalitarian climate in work teams and be inclusive of people of diverse genders and sexualities or queer people, including gay people. This paper discusses women's leadership in gay work teams, with a focus on the perspective of gay members in work teams. This research uses a qualitative approach with a case study type. The analysis in this research uses Queer Theory which was coined by Judith Butler. The findings of this research are that women's leadership in gay work teams is compatible because women and gays have the same problems, namely patriarchy and heteronormativity. This causes women to have empathy for gays because they also experience the same problems. Women also have gender-conscious empathy.

Non-Communicable Disease (NCD) Screening is an early effort to identify NCD risk factors in individuals or groups through the Integrated Development Post (Posbindu) NCD. NCDs consist of Hypertension, Diabetes Mellitus, Cervical and Breast Cancer, and Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease. NCDs are increasing and are the main cause of death of the population. In 2030, it is targeted that at least the number of premature deaths due to NCDs can be prevented through the SDGs program by 25%. The Faculty of Health Sciences (Fikes) of Musi Charitas Catholic University (UKMC) is part of the Sukarami Health Center Working Area which has 396 students in the 2024/2025 academic year. Fikes finds out whether or not there are NCD risk data factors in students. Lecturers and Officers of the Sukarami Health Center are actively conducting NCD screening using the Posbindu activity method, namely 5 Tables (Registration, Interview, Measurement, Examination and Counseling/Education). The target of all UKMC Fikes students who are studying on campus is 287 (72.47%). The activities carried out were measuring Body Weight (BB), Height (BB), determining Body Mass Index (BMI). Implementation of procedures in accordance with the guidelines set by the Indonesian National Nurses Association (PPNI). Results: The target achievement was 245 (85.37%) of the original target of 287. Analysis results 1) Students who have a BMI > 25 are 72 (29.39%) students; have a waist circumference > 80 (women) and > 90 (men) are 62 (25%) students. Blood pressure > 130/90 mmHg is owned by 6 (2.45%) students, while random blood sugar > 180 mg/dl is owned by 1 (0.41%) student. Suggestions or Follow-up Action Plans: All students are screened periodically and PTM control is carried out.

Approximately 287,000 cases of maternal death occur during pregnancy, childbirth, and postpartum. One of the targets in the global Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) is to reduce MMR to 70 per 100,000 live births by 2030. WHO data shows that 72.5% of maternal deaths are caused by direct factors, while the remaining 27.5% are caused by indirect factors. This study aims to determine the factors associated with maternal death in Sintang Regency in 2019-2023. The research design uses quantitative with a Cross Sectional approach. The study population is all data on maternal death cases from pregnancy, childbirth and postpartum periods from January 2019 - December 2023 obtained from the Sintang Regency Health Office.

The methods used include surveys of locations for illegal waste disposal, interviews, and focus group discussions (FGD) with the Head of the Village Consultation Agency (BPD) and local waste bank managers. The survey results show five main waste disposal points that became the primary focus of the program. Collaboration with village officials resulted in full support in the form of drafting a village regulation on cleanliness and the installation of CCTV to prevent illegal waste disposal. The program also involved community service activities starting from Sawir Hamlet, Krajan Hamlet, and Demaan Hamlet, with active community participation and direct coordination from the hamlet heads. The implementation of the program proved to increase residents' awareness of the importance of sanitation, reduce the risk of infectious diseases, and create a healthier environment. The role of students as activity initiators was appreciated for their ability to revive the gotong royong (mutual cooperation) culture, which had been abandoned.

The human body cannot work properly without water. Therefore, it is essential to conduct testing and monitoring of drinking water quality to ensure its safety and suitability for consumption. This has prompted researchers to develop more efficient systems compared to traditional methods. This study employs a systematic literature review approach by analysing various published articles to identify and evaluate the application of different types of sensors capable of detecting physical and chemical parameters for assessing drinking water quality. The findings indicate that the integration of sensors, microcontrollers, and Internet of Things (IoT) technology can provide accurate data that is accessible in real-time and remote locations. Furthermore, to enhance the reliability of the system, it is necessary to further develop data processing algorithms by applying artificial intelligence (AI) and/or machine learning technique to create smart systems with improved predictive capabilities. The implementation of these technologies is expected to support the Indonesian government’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by providing safe and affordable access to drinking water for all its citizens.

This essay focuses on sustainable development in archipelagic nations like Indonesia and how the Green and Blue economies may work together. This study identifies and analyzes a range of ideas, policies, and practices that bring the two economies together using a qualitative methodology and a literature review technique. A Green Economy is one that prioritizes social inclusion, resource efficiency, and low-carbon development. In the meantime, there's the Blue Economy, which promotes coastal environment preservation and economic growth via responsible resource management. According to this article's literature review, today's social and environmental problems may have their answers in the merging of these two economies. Sustainable development goals (SDGs) may be achieved, human well-being can be enhanced, and Indonesia's natural resource potential can be fully used by integrating sustainability concepts from both economies. This study's findings highlight the critical need of coordinating Green Economy and Blue Economy initiatives in order to foster mutually beneficial synergies that promote ecologically conscious and socially equitable sustainable growth.
