Food security is a complex issue closely related to various aspects such as agriculture, nutrition, health, and the environment. In the context of global development, food security is an integral part of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly Goal 2: Zero Hunger. This study aims to analyze the implementation of food security policies in supporting the achievement of the SDGs and to identify the factors that hinder the successful implementation of these policies. This research uses a qualitative approach with a literature study method, examining various secondary data sources including books, journal articles, laws and regulations, official government reports, mass media, and relevant online publications. The results show that the Indonesian government has undertaken various efforts to achieve food security through strengthening regulations, starting from Law Number 18 of 2012, Government Regulation Number 17 of 2015, and Presidential Regulation Number 125 of 2022. These efforts are supported by increased budget allocation, local wisdom-based food diversification programs, food estate programs, and strengthening national food reserves through cross-sectoral coordination. However, the implementation of these policies still faces four structural constraints, namely high population growth, the conversion of agricultural land, the impact of climate change on agricultural productivity, and low interest among the younger generation, which threatens farmer regeneration. The implications of this study indicate that the successful implementation of food security policies in supporting the achievement of the SDGs requires comprehensive, sustainable strategies and effective cross-sector collaboration.

The relocation of the Social Welfare Shelter Environment (Lingkungan Pondok Sosial/Liponsos) in Sidoarjo represents a strategic effort to address social and spatial issues characterized by overcapacity, limited facilities, and an inadequate living environment that does not fully support the physical and psychological needs of people with social welfare problems (PMKS). These conditions indicate that the challenges faced by Liponsos are not merely social in nature but are also closely related to the quality of the built environment, which significantly influences the rehabilitation and recovery process of its residents. Therefore, a human-centered design approach is required in planning social service facilities. This study aims to analyze the application of humanistic architecture principles in the planned relocation of the Sidoarjo Liponsos as a foundation for creating a more livable, dignified, and user-oriented environment. The research employs a literature review method by collecting data from relevant books, journals, regulations, and previous studies. The analysis is conducted using descriptive and content analysis to examine the relationship between humanistic architectural principles and the needs of residents within social welfare facilities. The results indicate that the humanistic architectural approach is highly relevant to the relocation of Liponsos, particularly through spatial zoning based on levels of privacy and security, the provision of green open spaces and communal areas as media for social interaction and therapeutic activities, and the design of self-development spaces that support rehabilitation and empowerment. The implementation of these principles is expected to create a built environment that not only fulfills basic functional requirements but also supports psychological recovery, social stability, and sustainable improvement in the quality of life of PMKS residents.  

Slum upgrading is a strategic step in improving the quality of life of urban communities, where its success is largely determined by the active involvement of local residents. This study aims to analyze the level of community involvement in the implementation of slum upgrading in Mantuil Village, South Banjarmasin District. Using a descriptive quantitative approach, data were collected through a structured questionnaire from 98 respondents selected using a purposive sampling technique. Data analysis was conducted descriptively to measure the level of participation in four stages of the activity. The results show that community involvement is in the good category, but has an uneven distribution. The highest average scores were found in the utilization stage (30.44) and maintenance stages (30.23), indicating that community participation is driven by the principle of direct benefit from the infrastructure being built. Conversely, participation in the planning and implementation stages tends to be lower due to structural barriers such as time constraints and respondents' economic burdens. These findings confirm that sustainable settlement upgrading requires synergy between community social capital and government policies that are adaptive to the geographic characteristics of the region, particularly related to tidal flooding vulnerability in riverbank areas.

The results indicated a significant increase in participants' understanding of inclusion literacy and their ability to formulate creative solutions for local discrimination issues. Evaluation through observation and reflection confirmed a paradigm shift among the youth from passive tolerance toward active participation in embracing differences. This project concludes that the synergy between critical education and collaborative dialogue successfully transforms youth into resilient pillars of social harmony. The accentuation of these inclusive values is expected to become the foundation for a more just and sustainable coastal community in Makassar.

The agricultural sector plays a strategic role in meeting food needs while maintaining environmental sustainability and community welfare. However, conventional farming practices that rely on chemical inputs have caused various problems, such as soil degradation, loss of biodiversity, and environmental pollution. This condition has encouraged the adoption of the Sustainable Agriculture concept, which emphasizes a balance between ecological, economic, and social aspects. Its successful implementation is strongly influenced by farmers’ perceptions as the main actors. This study aims to analyze rice farmers’ perceptions of the implementation of Sustainable Agriculture in swampy areas of Tebas District, Sambas Regency. The research was conducted from October to November 2025 using a survey method involving 95 farmers selected through the Slovin formula and proportional random sampling technique. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and Likert-scale questionnaires, and analyzed using descriptive analysis and binary logistic regression. The results show that farmers’ perceptions are generally positive, particularly regarding water management, variety selection, and cropping patterns. However, the use of organic fertilizers, environmentally friendly pest control, and post-harvest management are still considered difficult. Education level and non-farming occupations significantly influence farmers’ perceptions. Therefore, enhancing extension services, training, and support for business diversification is necessary to promote the adoption of Sustainable Agriculture.

Gillnet fisheries play an important role in supporting the local economy and the welfare of coastal communities. However, fishermen still face challenges related to unequal access to livelihood assets and high vulnerability to external factors such as seasonal changes, catch fluctuations, market pressures, and environmental conditions. This study aimed to analyze the level of vulnerability, identify livelihood assets, and formulate strategies for sustainable livelihood development among gillnet fishing communities. The study was conducted in Margasari and Muara Gading Mas Villages in September 2025 using a mixed-method approach, combining questionnaires, in-depth interviews, and field observations. Samples were selected through purposive sampling, and data were analyzed using descriptive quantitative and qualitative methods supported by a Likert scale. The results showed that fishermen’s vulnerability is relatively high (54.5%), affecting income stability. Social (81.4%) and natural (78.7%) assets are relatively strong, while human (38.6%), physic (48.3%), and financial (43.20%) assets remain relatively low. Limited education, lack of training, and restricted access to financial resources are the main constraints, leading to low adaptive capacity and limited livelihood diversification. Recommended strategies include improving human resource capacity, strengthening access to financial capital, and developing livelihood diversification based on local potential. These efforts are expected to enhance household economic resilience and support sustainable livelihoods among gillnet fishing communities.

This study aims to analyze the level of environmental friendliness of gillnet fishing gear operated by fishermen in Pangandaran Regency. Sustainable management of fishery resources is crucial in this region, given the high biodiversity and the pressure from environmentally damaging fishing activities. The methods used in this study include field observations, interviews, and the distribution of questionnaires to 30 respondents. Data analysis was conducted by scoring based on the nine criteria for environmentally friendly fishing gear established by the FAO Code of Conduct for Responsible Fisheries (CCRF) 1995. These nine criteria include gear selectivity, impact on habitat, fisherman safety, catch quality, consumer safety, impact on biodiversity, protection of endangered species, and social acceptance. The results showed that gillnet fishing gear in Pangandaran Regency obtained an average score of 28.3. Based on the CCRF assessment categories, this value places gillnets in the environmentally friendly category. Nevertheless, the selectivity aspect remains the lowest-scoring factor as the gear still catches more than three species with varying sizes. On the other hand, this fishing gear proved to be safe for habitats, poses no danger to fishermen, produces safe products for consumers, and is well-received socially by the local community.

The environmental friendliness of a fishing gear is an important component in sustainable fisheries management. The use of environmentally friendly fishing gear that complies with the Code of Conduct for Responsible Fisheries is absolutely necessary. Environmental friendliness refers to the ability of a fishing gear to catch fish with minimal environmental impact, because even though the fishing gear can catch fish well, the fishing gear can still cause problems with the marine environment, such as damage to coral reefs and non-selective fishing. The purse seine fishing gear used by fishermen in Laha Village, Ambon is one of the effective fishing gears in catching various types of pelagic fish such as scad, tuna, lemuru, skipjack and mackerel. Purse Seine fishing gear also has a negative impact on the marine ecosystem and therefore this study was conducted to determine the environmental friendliness of Purse Seine fishing gear. The research method that will be used is a descriptive method, namely interviews using questionnaires given to fishermen and data collection through field observations. Based on the results of the study, the Purse Seine fishing gear in Laha Village, Ambon is used to catch several types of small and large pelagic fish and the main catch is scad and skipjack tuna. Based on the calculation results of the criteria for environmentally friendly fishing gear, a score of 30 was obtained, so it can be concluded that the Purse Seine fishing gear in Laha Village, Ambon is included in the very environmentally friendly category. It is recommended that fishermen in Laha Village prioritize their safety and security during the fishing process and while sailing.

This study explores how social media–driven green marketing shapes sustainable consumer behavior through a systematic literature review. As concerns about sustainability intensify alongside rapid digital engagement, social media has emerged as a crucial platform for communicating environmental initiatives and influencing consumer responses. Despite this relevance, existing studies remain fragmented across theoretical, contextual, and methodological perspectives, limiting a holistic understanding of the topic. Using the PRISMA approach, this research reviews 42 empirical articles sourced from the Scopus database and analyzes them through the TCCM (Theory–Context–Characteristics–Method) framework. The findings show that most studies rely on intention-based theories, particularly the Theory of Planned Behavior, although there is a growing shift toward integrating social, psychological, and technology-oriented approaches. From a contextual standpoint, the literature is largely concentrated in Asian regions and younger demographics, which restricts broader generalization. Furthermore, results indicate that social media–driven green marketing does not directly affect sustainable behavior but works through important psychological mediators such as trust, engagement, and perceived value. These factors significantly influence how consumers interpret and respond to environmental messages online. The effectiveness of such marketing strategies is also shaped by cultural and demographic differences, making context a critical factor. Methodologically, most studies employ cross-sectional surveys and structural equation modeling, limiting the ability to capture causal and dynamic relationships. Overall, this study provides a structured synthesis, highlights research gaps, and suggests future directions, including cross-cultural analysis, stronger theoretical integration, and more rigorous research designs.

The use of digital technology in MSMEs is still uneven, especially in small businesses that still rely on manual recording such as at Toko Ibu Siti, so that the transaction process becomes slow and there is a risk of errors. This activity aims to implement an on-premise-based cashier system that is in accordance with business conditions and helps improve user understanding in operating it. The method used is qualitative descriptive with a participatory approach through observation, interviews, and questionnaires.

In addition, users can run the system independently after training, with a response that tends to be positive. The implementation of this system also encourages technology adaptation in the business environment, improves the accuracy of sales data, and enables business owners to make more effective information-based decisions. Overall, the implementation of this system is able to help improve work efficiency, reduce human error, and encourage the use of technology in small-scale businesses so as to support the sustainable growth of MSMEs.

Bullying in schools continues to be a serious concern that adversely impacts students’ psychological well-being, social relationships, and academic performance. Factors such as low empathy, inadequate social skills, and limited environmental control contribute significantly to this behavior. This study seeks to examine the implementation of group guidance as an approach to reducing bullying among students. A qualitative descriptive method was utilized, involving participants consisting of students identified as bullying perpetrators, school counselors, and victims. Data collection techniques included interviews, observations, and documentation, which were analyzed through processes of data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The results reveal that group guidance leads to positive behavioral changes in students, such as enhanced empathy, greater self-awareness, and improved communication and social interaction abilities. Furthermore, a reduction in both verbal and social bullying behaviors was observed. The group dynamics established during the sessions enabled students to better understand the consequences of their actions and gain insights from the experiences of others. These findings imply that group guidance can serve as an effective and sustainable strategy for preventing and managing bullying in school settings.

This study aims to explain the ambiguous role of higher education institutions in ensuring the safety and human rights of students as citizens. The increasing number of cases of academic violence, bullying, and excessive pressure indicates that the functions of universities are often limited to purely administrative aspects, thereby neglecting the need for legal protection. This research employs a normative legal method with a conceptual analysis approach to examine how the state, through its legal framework, defines the role of universities as both educational institutions and legal entities in carrying out the delegated responsibility of protecting human rights. The findings reveal that the state has not succeeded in effectively regulating student protection, as there is a significant gap between central regulations and their implementation within autonomous campuses. Although the state normatively requires universities to provide a safe environment for students, the lack of adequate oversight systems has resulted in protection measures that are largely reactive. This condition leaves limited room for preventive actions, indicating that the protection of students’ rights has not yet been implemented in a comprehensive and sustainable manner.

Indonesia’s mineral downstreaming policy has become a strategic instrument to increase the added value of natural resources and strengthen the country’s position in the global mineral value chain. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of the mineral downstreaming policy in encouraging regional economic transformation through the development of an integrated nickel processing industry in Obi Island, South Halmahera. The research employs a descriptive qualitative approach using secondary data obtained from government publications, corporate reports, policy documents, and environmental reports. Key data sources include regional economic statistics from the Central Bureau of Statistics, corporate publications from Harita Nickel, and regulatory frameworks such as Law No. 3 of 2020 concerning Mineral and Coal Mining. The findings show that the downstreaming policy has transformed Indonesia’s nickel industry by shifting export patterns from raw ore toward higher value-added products such as ferronickel and Mixed Hydroxide Precipitate (MHP), which are essential materials for electric vehicle battery production. The integration of Rotary Kiln Electric Furnace (RKEF) and High Pressure Acid Leach (HPAL) technologies in Obi Island has strengthened Indonesia’s role in the global battery supply chain while also stimulating regional economic growth in South Halmahera. However, the rapid expansion of the nickel industry also raises environmental governance challenges that require stronger regulatory oversight and sustainable mining practices. Therefore, future policy implementation should emphasize balanced economic development, environmental sustainability, and effective governance in mineral resource management.
