Competition in the local culinary business is getting tougher as consumer behavior shifts, placing greater emphasis on product quality and social media recommendations. Nasi Uduk Pemuda, located in Doko Village, Kediri Regency, leverages brand trust, distinctive flavors, and promotions through social media influencers to drive consumer purchasing decisions. This study aims to analyze the influence of brand trust, flavors, and social media influencers on consumer purchasing decisions. The method used in this study is quantitative, with a survey of consumers who have purchased Nasi Uduk Pemuda products. The sample size was calculated using the Slovin formula. Data were analyzed using SPSS 29 through several tests, such as validity, reliability, classical assumptions, multiple linear regression, t-test, f-test, and coefficient of determination (R²). The t-test results indicate that brand trust and flavor have a significant positive influence on consumer purchasing decisions. On the other hand, the influence of social media influencers on purchasing decisions is positive, but not significant. The f-test shows that simultaneously, the three variables significantly influence purchasing decisions, with an R² value of 0.669. This means that 66.9% of the variation in purchasing decisions can be explained by brand trust, taste, and the influence of social media influencers, while the remainder is influenced by other factors not examined in this study. In conclusion, maintaining brand trust, ensuring consistent taste quality, and leveraging promotions through social media influencers remain important strategies in improving consumer purchasing decisions. Nasi Uduk Pemuda needs to continue to maintain and develop these three elements to remain competitive in an increasingly dynamic market.

Tuberculosis (TB) is a contagious illness triggered by Mycobacterium tuberculosis, with transmission influenced by not only personal behaviors but also by the physical condition of the home environment. Environmental risk factors include flooring, wall material, ceiling structure, indoor temperature, humidity levels, air ventilation, habits of opening windows, and housing density. This research aimed to explore the correlation between individual behavior and the quality of home environmental conditions with pulmonary TB incidence in the Sematang Borang Health Center’s coverage area, Palembang, in 2025. A descriptive observational design was employed, involving 91 participants from Lebung Gajah Subdistrict. The sample consisted of both confirmed pulmonary TB patients (PCR positive) and individuals without TB (PCR negative), selected through purposive sampling. Data were processed using univariate analysis to describe frequency distributions and respondent characteristics. The study found that 35.2% of respondents were diagnosed with pulmonary TB, while 64.8% were not. Most participants were between 46 and 65 years old (42.9%), predominantly female (59.3%), and had a senior high school education (40.7%). In terms of TB-related knowledge and behavior, 59.3% had good knowledge, 63.7% held a positive attitude, and 50.5% practiced proper prevention measures. Nevertheless, more than half (56.0%) of the housing conditions failed to meet health standards for a safe home environment. These findings highlight that while the community shows generally good awareness and preventive behavior regarding TB, many still reside in environments that may contribute to TB transmission. Therefore, continuous health education, proactive contact tracing, and targeted health campaigns for at-risk groups—especially among those with lower educational backgrounds—should be prioritized.

This study discusses the practice of "capture marriage" (pakondong) still carried out in Ana Engge Village, Kodi District, West Sumba Regency, as part of the local tradition. Capture marriage is a practice where a man "captures" his prospective wife without the consent of the woman or her family. This practice has been ongoing for a long time and is considered part of local culture. However, when viewed from the perspective of national law, particularly Law No. 1 of 1974 on Marriage, this practice raises controversy. The law emphasizes that marriage must be conducted with the free consent of both parties, as stated in Article 6, Paragraph 1, which asserts that a marriage is only valid if both parties agree. This research uses an empirical juridical method, with interview techniques and literature studies, to examine the legality of capture marriage under positive law. The results show that capture marriage contradicts the basic principles of a valid marriage because it does not meet the requirement of free consent from both parties involved. Furthermore, capture marriage is also considered a violation of women's human rights, as women should have the right to choose their life partners without coercion or pressure. This practice also degrades women's dignity, as their rights as independent individuals to make their own choices should be respected. The conclusion of this study is that capture marriage cannot be justified under national law because it contradicts the principle of free and mutual consent. Therefore, efforts are needed from various parties, including the government, law enforcement, customary leaders, and society, to provide education on the importance of consent in marriage. Additionally, the modernization of customary law is crucial to align it with constitutional values and human rights, ensuring the protection of women's rights and promoting the development of a more just and equitable culture.

Moringa leaves (Moringa oleifera) are known to contain flavonoids that function as natural antioxidants, playing an important role in preventing the oxidation of body cells and maintaining health. However, the results of observations and interviews show that the people of Baet Village still do not understand the health benefits of moringa leaves and how they are processed into food with nutritional value. This community service activity aims to increase public understanding of the health benefits of moringa leaves and skills in processing them into food, vegetables, and various cakes. Partners in this activity are the Kaju Health Center and the people of Baet Village, with a total of 15 participants. The methods used include counseling on the nutritional content and benefits of moringa leaves, as well as the direct practice of processing moringa leaves into food products such as sponge cakes and puddings. The results of the activities showed success which was marked by the enthusiasm and active participation of the community in the evaluation sessions and processing demonstrations. The community is able to answer evaluative questions well and show skills in processing moringa leaves independently. In addition to increasing knowledge, the community also shows a commitment to implementing the results of counseling in daily life, including in efforts to reduce high blood pressure through the consumption of processed moringa leaves. This activity ran smoothly and had a positive impact on improving nutrition literacy and public health. It is hoped that this activity can be a model of sustainable community empowerment based on local potential.

Furthermore, it underscores the importance of digital tools in modernizing waste management systems and enhancing public awareness and engagement.

Providing education on how to wash hands properly is an important effort to increase awareness of clean and healthy living, especially for young children. Children at this age are in a very rapid developmental stage, so the information and habits taught are more easily absorbed and formed into daily behavior. However, children's awareness and understanding of the importance of hygiene, especially handwashing, is still relatively low. Therefore, health education is essential to instill good habits from an early age. Washing hands with soap is one of the Clean and Healthy Lifestyle Behaviors (PHBS) that is effective in preventing the spread of various types of diseases, especially diseases transmitted through hands, such as diarrhea, ARI, and skin infections. PHBS about handwashing must be a habit applied in daily life, both in the family, school, and community environment. This educational activity was carried out at St. Francis Xaverius Pineleng Catholic Kindergarten with the aim of increasing knowledge and forming handwashing behavior according to the six recommended handwashing steps. The implementation method included providing educational materials, showing a video song that teaches the six steps of handwashing, demonstrations by the implementer, and direct practice by the children with movements and songs. The results of the activity showed an increase in children's knowledge and skills in washing their hands properly. The children demonstrated enthusiasm and active participation during the educational process. It is hoped that teachers and parents will continue to encourage children to practice hand hygiene to prevent illness and foster healthy lifestyles from an early age.

Through seminars and leadership training, the goal of this community service project is to identify an effective leadership model that will enhance the work ethic of Jumantik employees in Setu Village, East Jakarta. Participating in the Effective Leadership program in enhancing work ethics were 100 Jumantik cadres from the village, the heads of the Development of Family Welfare of Setu Village, Cipayung District, and RW in the Setu Village neighborhood of East Jakarta. Lecture and coaching techniques are used in the training process. As a result of this training, a leader must employ effective leadership techniques to enhance work ethic when overseeing Jumantik cadres. To improve the motivation, accountability, and discipline of Jumantik cadres, one successful leadership model employs a transformational and participatory leadership style. This approach encourages open communication and fosters a sense of belonging among the cadres. It has been demonstrated that cadres who regularly monitor mosquito larvae perform better under leadership that offers clear guidance, emotional support, and active involvement in decision-making. Furthermore, the training emphasizes the importance of collaboration and teamwork, which are essential for achieving common goals. Jumantik cadre supervisors are advised to participate in leadership training since effective leadership would facilitate the development of a more inclusive and cooperative leadership model. Thus, it is anticipated that the effective sub-district eradication of Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) will be facilitated by the adoption of the appropriate leadership paradigm, ultimately leading to healthier communities and improved public health outcomes. This is expected to make the public more vigilant and protected from potential online fraud in the future. Furthermore, increased legal literacy is expected to create a safer and more trustworthy digital transaction ecosystem for all parties.

In addition to improving interpersonal communication skills, this training also emphasized the importance of strategic communication in the context of advocacy and social mobilization. NGO administrators were trained to design campaign messages tailored to audience segments, including potential donors, corporate partners, and government stakeholders. An understanding of the importance of framing and emotional appeal was also emphasized, so that the messages delivered were not only informative but also able to inspire empathy and concrete action from the audience.

The application of proper cough etiquette is an essential part of Clean and Healthy Living Behavior (PHBS) and serves as a preventive measure in reducing the transmission of respiratory infectious diseases from an early age. Health education for young children is crucial, as this stage represents the formative period where foundational habits are developed, potentially influencing long-term individual and environmental health. This community service activity was conducted on May 9, 2025, at Stella Maris Kindergarten in Tangerang City, involving 29 Nursery group children. The main objective of the program was to enhance the knowledge and skills of early childhood students in practicing correct cough etiquette and to instill healthy behaviors that they can apply in their daily lives at home and school. The implementation of the activity followed the POAC approach (Planning, Organizing, Actuating, Controlling) in a structured manner. Activities included storytelling (using engaging illustrations), screening of age-appropriate educational videos, practical simulations of cough etiquette, and fun, interactive games. These methods were designed to encourage active participation and ensure that children could understand and retain the health messages through enjoyable learning experiences. The results showed a notable improvement in the children's understanding and active involvement in practicing healthy coughing techniques, such as covering their mouths with a tissue or the inside of their elbows when coughing. Visual education combined with hands-on practice proved to be highly effective in conveying health messages to young children. The teachers responded positively to the program, emphasizing that the approach used was appropriate and should be widely implemented in other early childhood education institutions. They recognized it as a valuable promotive effort and a long-term health investment for children, laying the groundwork for healthier habits and environments in the future.

One of the vulnerable groups facing the double burden of malnutrition is children living in Child Social Welfare Institutions (LKSA), such as the LKSA Christian Orphanage Foundation in Malang City. This LKSA holds a C-level accreditation status, indicating limited resources and inadequate facilities to support children's well-being. Preliminary research revealed that many children are unaware of their nutritional status and have not received regular health check-ups or nutritional monitoring. To address this issue, the GAES Program (Grow And Eat Smart) was developed with the goal of increasing awareness about the double burden of malnutrition and enhancing education on the importance of regular nutritional status monitoring for children. The GAES Program consists of three main activities: distribution of nutritional measurement tools (scales and height measuring instruments), education on the importance of routine nutritional monitoring, and training in anthropometric screening techniques. The program's results showed that out of the 13 participating children, 7 children (54%) were identified as undernourished, while 6 children (46%) had good nutritional status. In addition, all participants successfully understood the educational material delivered during the sessions and were able to perform anthropometric measurements independently as an initial step in screening their nutritional status. Through this initiative, it is expected that both the children and the LKSA management will become more aware of the importance of regular nutritional monitoring and take early preventive actions. Furthermore, health professionals and local health centers (Puskesmas) are encouraged to provide continuous support and interventions at the LKSA to improve the nutritional status of children and adolescents. Such efforts are essential to prevent the long-term health impacts of the double burden of malnutrition and to ensure a healthier future for children living in social welfare institutions.

The 2025 Thematic Community Service Program (KKN-T) for the R3 group of Janabadra University Yogyakarta was held in Tangisan Hamlet, Banyurejo Village, Tempel Subdistrict, Sleman Regency. Tangisan Hamlet has various local potentials that can be developed, such as a productive agricultural sector, active social institutions, and a rich cultural heritage. However, this area also faces several challenges that need to be addressed, including low legal literacy among the community, a high potential for juvenile delinquency, and limited public information support facilities in the hamlet. In implementing the KKN-T program, a participatory approach was applied by involving the local community from the planning stage to the evaluation. The process began with field observations to understand the actual conditions in the community, then continued with the formulation of a work program developed in collaboration with community leaders and village officials. The programs implemented included the installation of information signs in Javanese script at strategic points as part of supporting the "Culturally Independent Village" program. In addition, socialization was conducted regarding laws related to online loans and juvenile delinquency, which aimed to increase public understanding of legal issues. At Banyurejo 4 Public Elementary School, anti-bullying education is being conducted to raise students' awareness of the importance of mutual respect. Furthermore, at the Integrated Service Post (Posyandu) for toddlers, nutritious supplementary food using local foods is provided to support children's health in the area. All implemented programs are based on the actual needs of the community, identified through discussions and deliberations with community leaders. Through this Community Service Program (KKN-T) activity, it is hoped that a strong synergy will be established between students, the community, and the village government in promoting sustainable and independent village development. This program is expected to provide direct benefits to the community and pave the way for better village development in the future.

The Community Service Program (KKN) is an intracurricular activity that is mandatory for students as a form of community service. In this context, the KKN group R1 of Janabadra University Yogyakarta conducted a service activity in Banyurejo Village, Yogyakarta City, for six weeks. This activity carried the main theme of community empowerment in environmental management, with a primary focus on increasing awareness of the economic potential of waste through the implementation of an Environmental Workshop with the theme "Waste as Economic Potential: Creating an Independent and Clean Village." This workshop was the core agenda that involved the active participation of residents in discussing and practicing waste management that was wise, economically valuable, and environmentally friendly. To support this main activity, several supporting programs were also implemented, including: Ceria Class as a medium for environmental education for children, the establishment of a Waste Bank, joint exercise activities with residents, village clean-up actions, synergy with the PKK women's group, and educational seminars on the environment and health. All activities were designed with a community-based educational and participatory approach, to encourage direct community involvement in creating change. During the implementation period, this program showed positive results. There was an increase in public awareness of the importance of structured and sustainable waste management. Furthermore, residents have begun to demonstrate their initiative by establishing neighborhood-level waste banks, demonstrating their commitment to community-based waste management. Participation from various community elements, including children, housewives, and community leaders, is key to the success of this initiative. The success of the Janabadra University Community Service Program (KKN) group R1 is expected to serve as a model for other regions in designing and implementing community empowerment programs, particularly in the environmental sector.

The development of digital technology has brought about significant changes in people's transaction patterns, particularly with the increasing use of online platforms for buying and selling. This phenomenon provides convenience for consumers and merchants, but is also accompanied by a high rate of online fraud experienced by both consumers and merchants. This fraud can take the form of fraudulent transactions, goods not received, or identity fraud. Low public legal literacy regarding rights and obligations in digital transactions is one of the main causes of weak legal protection for fraud victims. Many consumers and merchants are unaware of their rights and the legal procedures to take when experiencing fraud. This community service activity aims to increase the legal understanding of the public, especially online merchants and consumers, regarding digital consumer protection and legal fraud handling mechanisms. The activity implementation methods included interactive legal counseling, distribution of closed-ended questionnaires, case study simulations, Q&A discussions on legal issues, and light consultations. A total of 60 respondents, consisting of 30 merchants and 30 consumers, participated in the closed-ended questionnaire. The results showed that the majority of participants did not fully understand their rights in digital transactions and were unaware of the legal procedures to take when experiencing fraud. Despite this, participant interest in legal education was very high, with over 75% stating they wanted further legal assistance. This activity is expected to provide the public with better insight into their rights and obligations in digital transactions, as well as raise awareness of the importance of legal protection in the digital age. This is expected to make the public more vigilant and protected from potential online fraud in the future. Furthermore, increased legal literacy is expected to create a safer and more trustworthy digital transaction ecosystem for all parties.
