Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) remains a significant public health challenge in Indonesia, with the increasing prevalence of cases every year. One of the key methods of controlling the spread of DHF is to target the vector, Aedes aegypti mosquitoes, by eradicating their larvae. However, the widespread and continuous use of chemical larvicides has raised concerns regarding the development of mosquito resistance and environmental pollution. This community service activity aimed to provide students at Duta Karya Vocational High School with knowledge and practical skills to use natural, eco-friendly alternatives for controlling mosquito larvae, focusing on papaya seeds (Carica papaya) and alum as natural larvicides. The methods for this activity included interactive counseling, a demonstration on how to produce larvicides using papaya seeds and alum, and an engaging question-and-answer session. Thirty 12th-grade students from the Pharmacy class participated in this activity. The results revealed that the activity was highly effective in increasing the students' understanding and practical ability to independently create and apply natural larvicides. The students expressed a high level of enthusiasm and interest in the topic, actively participating in the discussions and demonstrations. As a result of this community service, the school has expressed interest in incorporating this activity into its School Health Unit (UKS) work program, which will further promote the use of natural, sustainable methods for controlling mosquito populations. The students, now equipped with the necessary skills, are ready to become "jumantik" cadres—community health volunteers responsible for monitoring and preventing mosquito larvae development. This initiative also raised awareness about utilizing organic waste, such as papaya seeds, to create valuable products for the prevention of DHF.

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.

Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) is a disease caused by the dengue virus which is transmitted through the bite of Aedes aegypti or Aedes albopictus. This mosquito is a fast-growing mosquito and causes nearly 390 million people to be infected every year. The symptoms of Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever are similar to dengue fever. Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever has several other symptoms such as continuous heartburn, bleeding in the nose, mouth, gums, and bruising on the vector's skin. Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) is an infectious disease that often causes outbreaks and causes death, especially in children. The One House One Jumantik Movement (G1R1J) is community participation and empowerment by involving every family in examining, monitoring and eradicating mosquito larvae to control vector-borne diseases, especially dengue fever, through the cultivation of 3M PLUS Mosquito Nest Eradication. 

The JUMANTIK (Mosquito Larvae Monitoring Cadre) activity is an effort to prevent and control dengue fever through the inspection and monitoring of mosquito larvae in residential areas. This program is a collaboration between students of the Community Service Program (KKN) from UPNVJT and the Surabaya Hebat Cadres (KSH) of Klampis Ngasem RW01. The aim of this program is to raise awareness and community participation in maintaining environmental health and preventing the spread of dengue fever in Surabaya. Through this activity, it is expected that the community will become more active in maintaining environmental cleanliness and regularly monitoring the presence of mosquito larvae. The results of this program show an increase in public awareness and a decrease in the number of dengue fever cases in the monitored areas.
