In conclusion, optimizing musyarakah contracts requires collaborative efforts from various stakeholders to overcome challenges and harness its potential in promoting fair partnership-based economic growth.

This research aims to launch the development of mosque activities in Bukit Peninjauan 1 Village, Sukaraja District, Seluma Regency, in order to increase public awareness of the function of mosques as centers of social and religious activities. The research method used is qualitative with a case study approach, which includes in-depth interviews, focus group discussions (FGD), participant observation, and documentation. The research results show that people's perception of mosques is still limited to their main worship function, with low awareness of the potential of mosques as educational, social and economic centers. The level of community participation in non-worship activities is also relatively low, with the majority of the community only active in congregational prayers and routine recitation activities. Some of the main challenges identified include limited resources, lack of community support, and inadequate facilities. This research concludes that to optimize the role of mosques as multifunctional activity centers, more intensive outreach efforts are needed, program development that is relevant to community needs, as well as collaborative support from various parties. With these steps, the Al-Amin Mosque in Bukit Peninjauan 1 Village has the potential to become the center of a more active and productive community life.

This study aims to enhance student literacy through a library revitalization program conducted during the Kampus Mengajar 7 activities at SDN Kertosari 03. The program includes three main activities: categorizing books by genre, creating reading corners, and forming reading groups. The research employed a descriptive qualitative method, with data collected through observations, interviews, and documentation during the mentoring process. The results show that library revitalization significantly improved students' reading interest and literacy skills. Categorizing books made it easier for students to access reading materials that matched their interests, while reading corners provided a conducive environment for reading activities. The formation of reading groups was also effective in developing literacy skills through a collaborative approach. In addition to improving literacy, this program also succeeded in creating social changes, such as the emergence of new institutions in the form of reading groups and increased active student participation in literacy activities. Based on these findings, it is recommended that other schools in resource-limited areas adopt a similar approach to comprehensively enhance student literacy.

Parental child abuse leading to mental illness is a form of physical, emotional, violence experienced by a child from a parent or guardian that adversely affects the child's mental well-being. It can include various forms of behaviors that degrade, humiliate, or emotionally or physically harm the child. Violence against a child is also one of the most dominant cases and is found anytime, anywhere, almost everywhere in all provinces in Indonesia. If this violence occurs against a child, it will have a negative impact on the child. The child will experience a sense of trauma, excessive fear, closure, silence, mental disorders, passive communication, and even physical disability if the violence is in the form of physical violence. This is very ironic, considering that children who are the next generation of the nation, should get parental love, guidance and loving education so that this study aims to prevent physical violence against children and the need for countermeasures, both from the government and from the family or parents of children. This study aims to identify the impact of parental violence on children's mental state and explore coping strategies. The importance of preventing physical and emotional violence against children requires collaborative efforts between the government, families, and communities. Effective coping strategies include social support from the surrounding environment, psychological interventions such as counseling and therapy, and education and training on positive parenting. Strict and comprehensive child protection policies are also necessary to create a safe and supportive environment for children's development. By raising awareness of the negative impact of violence and implementing appropriate coping strategies, it is hoped that children can grow and develop optimally, free from violence, and ready to become the next generation of physically and mentally healthy nations.

Stunting remains a significant public health challenge in Indonesia, especially in rural areas. The national stunting prevalence was recorded at 24.4% in 2021, still far above the maximum threshold of 14% set in the SDGs for 2024. To tackle this problem, the KKN-T Bela Negara Group 8 team of the National Development University "Veteran" East Java in collaboration with UPT Puskesmas Tawangsari carried out a socialization program on stunting prevention in Muteran Hamlet, Kejagan Village, Trowulan District, Mojokerto Regency on August 2, 2024. This program involved 38 participants of mothers with children under five years old and focused on three main interventions including measuring children's height, weighing children, and giving vitamin A. This activity aims to know how to prevent stunting from various aspects, knowing how to measure and weigh toddlers appropriately according to health procedures and learning how to give vitamin A to children. Through this collaborative effort, it is hoped that the prevalence of stunting in Muteran Hamlet can be significantly reduced so that it can contribute to improving the quality of human resources in the future.

This study explores the role of Sharia-compliant crowdfunding platforms as ethical financial innovations in supporting green startups, particularly in emerging economies. Green startups, which are inherently mission-driven and environmentally conscious, often face challenges in accessing traditional funding due to the long-term nature of their returns and perceived investment risks. Conventional financing mechanisms are frequently profit-oriented and risk-averse, making them unsuitable for ventures that prioritize sustainability and community impact. In contrast, Sharia-compliant crowdfunding platforms offer alternative financing pathways that are grounded in Islamic ethical principles, such as profit-and-loss sharing and the prohibition of interest and speculation. The research uses a qualitative-comparative case study approach, drawing from secondary data and interviews with platform operators and green startup founders. Thematic and comparative analyses reveal that Sharia crowdfunding platforms not only attract ethically motivated investors but also foster trust, transparency, and alignment with the values of environmentally conscious communities. These platforms provide higher levels of ethical accountability, although they are currently limited by low public literacy and a lack of regulatory frameworks in many regions. The study concludes that Sharia-compliant crowdfunding platforms have significant potential to bridge the financing gap for green startups. Their success depends on collaborative support from government, financial institutions, and academia, along with increased efforts in education and regulatory development. By integrating religious ethics and sustainable finance, these platforms can help create inclusive, transparent, and socially responsible funding ecosystems that contribute meaningfully to green economic growth.

Bridging the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical application remains challenging in big data education. Our paper proposes a platform where students actively participate in a role-based learning (RBL) exercise designed to simulate real-world big data projects. This RBL exercise assigns each student participant to a business analyst role tasked with eliciting requirements or a customer role that provides those big data requirements. We conducted RBL sessions for postgraduate and undergraduate students learning big data analytics/data warehousing. Through role-playing in a collaborative environment, students face challenges such as unclear objectives, data privacy concerns, and evolving requirements. We evaluated the effectiveness of RBL simulations through brainstorming sessions, which verified that the students achieved the learning outcomes through RBL exercises. We also collected students’ feedback through a survey and found the RBL experience helped us understand the big data requirement elicitation skills, highlighting the significance of communication and collaboration skills. Further, we have evaluated students through a final exam question, and identified that students who participated in the RBL exercise outperformed in the big data requirement elicitation question. In summary, our research demonstrates that this RBL approach offers a valuable learning experience by enabling students to directly experience the complexities of big data requirement elicitation and identify the future requirements or challenges that encourage them to acquire the required skills.
