Conservation is about the balance of nature. Panlungan Village, located in Wonosalam Subdistrict, Jombang Regency, has natural potential in the form of abundant forests and springs. However, illegal logging in 1998 damaged Panlungan's forests, reducing the headwaters of the river and increasing the risk of natural disasters such as landslides. Awareness of the importance of forests as a source of oxygen and habitat for various species prompted the local community to form the Kepu Forest Farmer Group (KTH) which focuses on conserving and planting forests with native plants. The Mendiro Settlement spring in Panlungan Village is the main source of livelihood for the local community, but is under serious threat due to man-made environmental degradation. The Kepuh Forest Farmers Group (KTH) has played an active role in the sustainable management of springs since the 1990s, with a focus on protecting the environment and educating the community about the importance of forest ecosystem conservation. This research shows that active community participation in forest and spring conservation is essential to preserve natural resources in Panlungan village. By strengthening supervision of illegal logging activities, strengthening conservation programs, and raising awareness of the importance of maintaining forest ecosystems, we hope to ensure the survival of future generations and the preservation of clean water sources for the people of Panlungan Village.

This research aims to describe the environmental awareness behavior of students at SMPN 3 Jakarta. The study utilizes a descriptive research method with data collection techniques including questionnaires, interviews, observations, and literature review. Data analysis techniques employed are data reduction, data presentation, conclusion drawing, and verification. Based on the research findings, students' environmental awareness behavior at SMPN 3 Jakarta is measured through eight indicators: environmental care with a percentage of 38% in the low category, reduction of plastic waste with 33% in the moderate category, waste management with 35% in the moderate category, carbon emission reduction with 40% in the high category, energy conservation with 28% in the moderate category, tree planting with 47% in the moderate category, reuse of items with 47% in the moderate category, and protection of flora and fauna with 38% in the moderate category. The results indicate that many students do not show concern for the environment. This can be seen in behaviors such as indiscriminate littering (e.g., under desks or chairs), unauthorized removal of plants or fruits, and lack of participation in school cleanliness programs such as weekly cleaning activities and duty schedules. Reasons cited include students' laziness to clean classrooms and reliance on peers.

The residents of RW 05 Jomblang, Candisari District, Semarang City, are increasingly concerned about the impact of plastic waste on the environment. As a solution, used plastic bottles are being utilized as planting media in hydroponic techniques by MBKM students from various universities, such as UPN "Veteran" East Java, Padjadjaran University, and Semarang State University. This utilization of plastic bottles reduces waste while supporting sustainable agriculture by minimizing the use of land and water. The program raises community awareness about eco-friendly urban farming, focusing on water efficiency and quick harvesting processes. Education includes basic hydroponic techniques and their implementation using used bottles, which has been met with active community participation. Evaluations show tangible results, such as pakcoy plants being distributed to participants. Discussions with the RW 05 Chairman reveal significant benefits for the community in utilizing used items for agriculture. This program strengthens the community and suggests further development to enhance local food security and environmental awareness, as well as motivate the adoption of modern agricultural technologies

Corn and cattle are the main commodities in dry land farming in East Nusa Tenggara (NTT), with corn as a food source and cattle as a source of income. This province has vast dry land potential, namely 1,734,488 H, but its utilization is still less than optimal. The Cattle Harvest Corn Planting Program (TJPS) was launched to increase corn production, cattle population and farmer welfare.This research analyzes the Farmer Exchange Rate (NTP) in Manusak Village, Kupang Regency, and the factors that influence it, as well as examining government policies in supporting the efficiency of the corn-cattle farming system. Qualitative methods through interviews, observations and text analysis are used to understand farmers' experiences in farming.The results show that the NTP in the Gacinda and Leselik farmer groups is different: Gacinda has a higher NTP than Leselik, which is caused by differences in corn production costs and yields. In conclusion, corn productivity and costs incurred affect farmer welfare, with high expenditures potentially reducing NTP.  

Women's empowerment is a modern concept that marks progressive changes in efforts to liberate from patriarchal culture, where women's involvement in society was previously very minimal. Efforts to align the portion of involvement of all genders are often referred to as the equal rights movement or women's liberation movement. In Setren Village, women's involvement is still low, with the achievement of SDG 5 point "Village Women's Involvement" only 26.32%. Based on this assessment, our community service work program is focused on increasing women's involvement. We initiated two main programs: empowerment of Village PKK Organizations through the creation of Village Gardens and education on Verticulture planting media, as well as rebranding of Mrs. Sri's Village MSMEs which operate in the soybean juice beverage sector. By partnering with the PKK, this women's empowerment organization is expected to be able to contribute to community development. Support for MSMEs also aims to improve the economic and environmental aspects of villages. This research aims to evaluate the results of the women's empowerment program in Setren Village. In contrast to previous research which focused on crafts, our approach uses planting media education and MSME support. The service will be carried out for three months, from March to July 2024, in accordance with the SDGs of Setren Village. The methods used include surveys, discussions and problem identification. Surveys were conducted at the Village Hall and the Village Head's house to obtain initial information. The second visit was made to Mrs. Sri's house to understand the condition of MSMEs.

This research will discuss the community's efforts in maintaining the heritage of the ancestors given, namely the Lahbako dance. Lahbako dance is a typical Jember dance, where this dance exists to show a series of tobacco processing from planting to packaging tobacco.  This arian can be said to be a tradition that is carried out every time tobacco planting and has become one of the icons of the city of Jember. It is well known that technological development has been increasingly rapid, and young people are starting to be reluctant to learn or just find out what has become the history of their own nation. The existence of the Lahbako dance which used to be a tradition during the harvest season, is now also used as a tourist attraction, so it can be said that there is a shift in cultural functions. Therefore, efforts are needed to introduce all groups, especially young people so that they can continue to preserve or innovate the culture. In this study we use Robert K. Merton's theory of Structural Functionalism, which emphasizes the need to understand the many functions associated with society, in order to maintain the social structure in society. The functions in question are dysfunction, latent function, and manifest function. In this research using qualitative research methods, with an ethnographic approach.

Internalization is essentially a process of instilling something, beliefs, attitudes and personal (personal) values that manifest into social behavior. however, the planting process grows from within a person to the appreciation of a value. The background to the problem of this research is that there are several students who violate regulations and lack norms towards each other, however, with the very rapid development of technology, it is feared that it could disrupt the activities of students in carrying out activities at Islamic boarding schools, especially in Tahfidzul Qur'an activities.This research aims to determine the activities and application of methods, spiritual and social education values, as well as the internalization of spiritual and social education values in Tahfidzul Qur'an activities at PPTQ Al-Munawwar Temanggung. This research uses a qualitative type of research using a descriptive approach. Qualitative research is research with data collection procedures using observation, interviews and documentation methods. in technical data analysis, researchers collect data, reduce data, present data, and draw conclusions. Data validity is checked by data triangulation, namely an examination technique that utilizes untadz or ustadzah, administrators, and students as informants to check or compare the data.The results of this research are that there is no special method for memorizing the Al-Qur'an, the method for memorizing the Al-Qur'an is adjusted to the abilities of each student. There are spiritual education values contained in Tahfidzul Qur'an activities, namely the value of monotheism education, the value of piety education, and the value of moral education. Meanwhile, the social education values of Islamic boarding school students cannot be separated from the intervention of the security council and also the role of Ustadzah religious teachers in the behavior of Islamic boarding school students. There are three strategies used in the process of internalizing the spiritual education values contained in Tahfidzul Qur'an activities, namely habituation, providing an example, and providing mentoring or a personal approach. Meanwhile, the process of internalizing the values of social education in Tahfidzul Qur'an activities, namely by placing the Islamic boarding school in the vicinity of the community, will get used to frequent direct contact, such as in terms of sharing, socializing, community activities, including the main event of the Islamic boarding school, namely the Haflah celebration which is held 2 once a year.The novelty element of this research is that the spiritual and social educational values that are internalized into Tahfidzul Qur'an activities will be able to shape the character of students, because Tahfidzul Qur'an can be used as a tool to increase intelligence, abilities, develop attitudes, increase potential. self and can form students who are responsible, intelligent and creative.

This study explores the integration of Islamic economic education with green economy principles, focusing on environmental stewardship and sustainability. Islamic education plays a pivotal role in fostering ecological awareness, integrating values such as khalifah (stewardship), maslahah (public welfare), and adl (justice), which align with green economic practices. The research investigates how these values are taught in Islamic educational settings, particularly in pesantren (Islamic boarding schools), and how they promote sustainable practices such as tree planting and livestock cultivation. The study highlights the role of Islamic financial mechanisms, such as zakat, waqf, and green financing, in supporting sustainable development and equitable resource distribution. It also examines how Islamic education instills eco-spiritual values and encourages sustainable behaviors among students. The findings suggest that Islamic universities emphasize ethical economic principles more than secular institutions, while secular institutions focus more on sustainability content. The study calls for a more integrated approach, where both ethical economic practices and sustainability principles are harmonized to equip students for leadership roles in a green economy. This integration is crucial for fostering responsible global citizens capable of addressing the intertwined challenges of economic growth and environmental preservation.
