This community service project aimed to strengthen the capacity of Posyandu cadres in performing early detection of child growth and development (SDIDTK) through a community-based intervention at Babadan Health Center, Indramayu. Limited knowledge, lack of assessment tools, and minimal continuous assistance were identified as key problems among cadres. The intervention involved training, mentoring, simulation practice, and monitoring–evaluation using participatory and human-centered approaches. Thirty cadres participated in the program. The results showed an improvement in cadres’ understanding of SDIDTK concepts, increased ability to conduct stimulation and screening using KPSP, and enhanced readiness to educate parents during Posyandu activities. This community-based approach successfully strengthened cadres’ competency and supported optimal child development monitoring in the community. The program is recommended to be continued through periodic mentoring and integration with local health programs.

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.

Household waste management remains a critical challenge in creating clean and sustainable residential environments. Manual monitoring methods often lead to delayed waste collection, overflowing bins, and operational inefficiency. This community engagement program implements an Internet of Things (IoT)-based Smart Trash Monitoring SIstem (STMS) at Graha Panyindangan Estate, Indramayu. The sIstem utilizes ultrasonic sensors and ESP32 microcontrollers to detect the fill level of household waste containers and transmit data in real time to a user-accessible dashboard. The results demonstrate that the STMS provides accurate waste-level information, reduces manual inspections, enhances collection efficiency, and fosters data-driven behavior among residents. Social changes also emerged, including improved environmental awareness, new social norms, and the emergence of local leaders supporting sIstem sustainability. This program contributes to the realization of smart living in modern residential communities, ensuring better waste management, cleaner environments, and more sustainable practices for future generations. It also provides valuable insights into the role of technology in addressing environmental issues at the community level.

This research program aimed to improve farmers’ understanding of the Jajar Legowo rice planting system and to analyze the factors influencing their perceptions. The program was conducted with the Sukatani Farmer Group in Tukdana Village, Indramayu Regency, using a mixed-method approach that combined observation, interviews, and questionnaires with 30 farmers. The results showed that farmers’ knowledge of the Jajar Legowo system was relatively low (54.17%), while their attitude was in the moderate category (58.92%). Correlation analysis revealed a strong relationship between knowledge and attitude (r = 0.672), which together shaped farmers’ perceptions of the system. Further analysis indicated that only land area had a significant influence on farmers’ perceptions, while age and education level showed no significant effect. Qualitative findings also revealed that farmers’ perceptions were influenced by direct farming experience, agricultural extension activities, institutional support, and social influence from leading farmers. Based on these findings, efforts to increase the adoption of the Jajar Legowo planting system require participatory extension strategies, hands-on demonstrations, and strengthened farmer group involvement.

The digital design of cultural museums with an interactive and educational approach in Indramayu Regency aims to present a modern, innovative, and interesting cultural preservation space. This concept was born from the urgent need for a means that are able to preserve, document, and promote local cultural wealth in the midst of the rapid flow of globalization. The lack of cultural literacy among the public, especially the younger generation, as well as the loss of historical objects due to inadequate storage facilities, are the main reasons for the importance of developing digital-based museums. Through an interactive approach, visitors can actively engage with cultural collections using advanced technologies such as augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR), and interactive multimedia. This technology provides an immersive, engaging, and personalized learning experience, so that visitors not only see, but also virtually experience the richness of the culture on display. Meanwhile, the educational approach is designed to create an informative, collaborative, and fun learning environment, which is highly relevant for learners and the younger generation as the successors of cultural preservation. Indramayu Regency, known for its long history, maritime traditions, and distinctive coastal culture, has great potential to become a center for cultural education. This digital museum will utilize digital technology to document cultural narratives in depth, so that it can be accessed not only by local people, but also national and international tourists. With its strategic location in the city center, the presence of this museum is expected to encourage the participation of the public and tourists in understanding, appreciating, and preserving the local culture of Indramayu. Apart from being an educational facility, this museum is expected to be able to become a driver of local tourism that makes a positive contribution to the economy of the surrounding community. Digital cultural museums are not only a place for preservation, but also a symbol of a strong regional identity, reflecting the synergy between technological innovation and commitment to cultural sustainability in the modern era.

Funeral care is an essential religious obligation in Islam, yet many communities lack adequate knowledge and experience in performing proper funeral rites. This community service project aimed to provide education and practical training on caring for the deceased following Islamic teachings. Conducted in Sumur Bandung Hamlet, Haurgeulis District, Indramayu Regency, on January 31, 2025, the training involved 40 participants, including 10 men and 30 women. The methods used included lectures to deliver theoretical knowledge, demonstrations to show correct procedures, and hands-on practice to enhance participants’ skills. The results indicated a significant improvement in participants’ understanding and abilities in funeral care. Prior to the training, only 13 participants had prior experience or training, while 27 had never been exposed to funeral care procedures. By the end of the session, all participants had gained practical experience and demonstrated improved knowledge. This initiative not only enhanced religious literacy but also fostered social awareness and solidarity within the community. It is recommended that similar training programs be conducted regularly to ensure community readiness in fulfilling this religious duty.

Regian Music is a music service provider company established in 2021 and has been operating in the regions of Cirebon, Indramayu, Majalengka, and Kuningan, contributing to various events including parties. The Regian Music band has the potential to emphasize professionalism, but it faces challenges with its visual logo element. The current logo of Regian Music does not yet represent the band's vision and mission. In the old logo, there is inconsistency in the use of elements, typography, and colors. There is also a "Canva" watermark in the center of the logo, which detracts from its professionalism in a visual context. Therefore, a logo redesign is necessary to better reflect the characteristics of the Regian Music band. The logo redesign process follows the Brand Identity design method (Alina Wheeler, 2013). The new logo is created with a music theme and minimalist design style, using a combination of red, black, and white colors, as well as incorporating Japanese element concepts.
