Karangtalun Village, located in Kalidawir District, Tulungagung Regency, East Java, has significant potential for developing Family Medicinal Plants (TOGA) to support community-based health practices. However, the utilization of TOGA in daily health care remains limited due to a lack of knowledge and practical skills among residents. At the same time, the community faces a growing social challenge—digital exposure among young children, which negatively affects their physical, psychological, and social well-being. To address these issues, a capacity-building program was implemented for women involved in the Integrated Guidance Post (Posbindu) through training on TOGA cultivation and digital literacy education using the Community-Based Participatory Research (CBPR) approach. This participatory model actively engaged community members in the planning, implementation, and evaluation stages. The program results showed an increase in participants’ understanding of TOGA as an alternative for self-care and traditional medicine, greater awareness of the adverse effects of excessive gadget use among children, and positive behavioral changes in parenting, such as setting screen-time limits and replacing gadget use with creative family activities. These findings demonstrate that integrating local wisdom–based education with digital literacy can effectively strengthen family resilience and promote sustainable well-being in the digital era.

Household waste management is a significant challenge in creating clean, healthy, and sustainable residential areas. Dependence on manual monitoring methods often leads to delays in waste collection, waste pile-ups, and operational inefficiencies. This community service program implements a Smart Trash Monitoring Sistem (STMS) based on the Internet of Things (IoT) in Graha Panyindangan Estate, Indramayu. The system utilizes ultrasonic sensors and ESP32 to detect waste levels and sends real-time data to a dashboard accessible by residents and cleaning staff. The results of implementing STMS show improved efficiency in waste management, with waste collection being carried out on time based on accurate, real-time data. This system also reduces the need for manual inspections and encourages responsible waste management behavior among residents. In addition to technical benefits, there have been social changes, such as increased environmental awareness and the formation of new social norms within the community. The involvement of local leaders in supporting the system’s sustainability further strengthens the implementation of the smart living concept, resulting in a cleaner, healthier, and more sustainable residential environment in the long term.

This research aims to analyze, examine, and identify the forms of legal protection available for child victims of bullying, as well as to assess government measures in providing compensation to these victims based on Indonesia’s ius constituendum framework. In recent years, bullying cases involving minors have significantly increased, leaving victims unable to defend themselves. The primary issues addressed in this study concern the legal protection afforded to child victims of bullying and the manner in which the government provides compensation in accordance with the envisioned future law (ius constituendum) in Indonesia. This study employs a normative legal research method, relying on the examination of legal materials. The approach used is the statute approach, referring to relevant laws and regulations. The findings reveal the types of legal protection accessible to child victims of bullying and the measures that the government may implement to provide compensation in alignment with Indonesia’s aspirational legal framework.

Based on Article 19 of the UUPA in conjunction with Article 37 paragraph (1) of PP 24/1997, the transfer of land rights through sale and purchase can only be registered if proven by a PPAT deed. However, because the process of fulfilling the requirements is quite complicated, people often buy and sell land verbally without following formal procedures. Regarding this practice, Decision Number 5592 K/Pdt/2024 is interesting because the Supreme Court has confirmed the validity of verbal land sales. This case study aims to understand the legal considerations in the decision in terms of contract law and the provisions of the Land Registration Regulation, as well as how the decision is implemented. The method used is a legal-normative approach through a review of legislation and court decisions, with a qualitative legal analysis of land sales and the implementation of the decision. The results of the study show that verbal land sales are valid according to Article 1320 of the Civil Code, but cannot be registered as a transfer of rights because Article 37 of Government Regulation No. 24/1997 requires a PPAT deed. Court decisions that have permanent legal force but are not voluntarily implemented can be enforced through the District Court with a 14-day aanmaning process, and if they are still ignored, execution will be carried out. If the forced execution does not go according to plan, the parties concerned can file a request for cancellation of the legal product based on Articles 38-40 of Agrarian Ministerial Regulation No. 21/2020.

The research suggests implementing the program in additional areas with improved inter-agency collaboration, supportive policy measures, and fortified digital infrastructure to guarantee the ongoing sustainability of local economic development.

This study aims to examine the development of Islam during the Umayyad Dynasty as one of the important periods in the history of Islamic civilization. The main focus of the discussion is directed at the process of the emergence of Muawiyah ibn Abi Sufyan as the first caliph of the Umayyad Dynasty and his efforts to establish dynastic power after the Islamic Civil War (Fitnah Kubra). The Umayyad Dynasty played a strategic role in the transformation of the Islamic government system from an elective caliphate to a hereditary monarchy, while simultaneously expanding the territory of Islam to various regions. This study uses a literature review method with a historiographic approach, namely examining and analyzing relevant classical and modern historical sources. The results show that during the Umayyad Dynasty, Islam experienced significant developments in the aspects of politics, government administration, military, and culture. However, internal political dynamics, conflicts over the legitimacy of power, and dissatisfaction of certain groups also contributed to weakening the stability of the dynasty. This study also describes the process of decline of the Umayyad Dynasty until its eventual collapse and replacement by the Abbasid Dynasty.

This study aims to analyze public relations (PR) management practices and the leadership style of the Vice Principal for Public Relations (Waka Humas) in building a positive school image and establishing partnerships with industry sectors. The focus of the research lies in communication strategies, coordination patterns, and leadership approaches implemented to support school development programs based on industry collaboration. This research employs a qualitative approach using a case study method, with data collected through in-depth interviews, observations, and documentation analysis.
