Criminal law socialization is a crucial form of community empowerment in building awareness, compliance, and legal order in the social environment. This activity is motivated by the limited understanding among some members of the public regarding what constitutes a crime, the potential legal consequences, and the appropriate steps to take when facing legal issues. This lack of legal literacy can leave people vulnerable to committing violations, becoming victims of crime, or resolving conflicts in ways that are inconsistent with legal provisions. Therefore, this socialization activity aims to provide a basic understanding of criminal law, raise public awareness of the importance of obeying the law, and encourage active community participation in creating a safe, orderly, and just environment. The activity is implemented through counseling, interactive discussions, questions and answers, and the presentation of simple case studies relevant to everyday life. The material presented includes the definition of criminal law, types of crimes frequently occurring in society, legal sanctions, the rights and obligations of citizens, and the role of the community in preventing legal violations. Through a communicative and participatory approach, it is hoped that the community will more easily understand the material and be able to connect it to real-world problems in their environment. The expected outcomes of this activity are increased public understanding of criminal law, increased awareness to avoid unlawful acts, and increased public courage to report criminal acts to the authorities. Thus, criminal law socialization serves not only as an educational activity but also as a community empowerment strategy in building a legal culture. This activity is expected to encourage the formation of a legally aware, responsible community that plays an active role in creating a law-abiding environment.

Organizations in the digital era face rapid and unpredictable changes characterized by volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity, requiring strategic adaptation and effective change management. This study aims to synthesize empirical findings on the role of change management strategies, adaptive leadership, innovative organizational culture, and employees’ psychological readiness in supporting digital transformation and improving employee performance.

This study examines how integrating local ecological wisdom and eco-literacy education fosters environmental awareness, behavioral transformation, and health outcomes among Indonesian primary school students. The research responds to the ecological paradox of rapid technological growth amid worsening environmental degradation, where youth eco-literacy remains below 45%, indicating a gap between environmental knowledge and sustainable action. The study aims to develop a culturally responsive model of sustainability education that connects environmental ethics, cultural identity, and public health. Using a qualitative case study design, the research was conducted at SD Islam Kreatif Mutiara Anak Sholeh, Sidoarjo, East Java, from July to August 2025, involving 60 students and six teachers. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews, observations, and document analysis. Four major themes emerged: (1) cultural narratives as catalysts for environmental awareness, (2) eco-literacy as experiential and behavioral transformation, (3) collaborative learning as collective environmental agency, and (4) eco-health as psychosocial and physical well-being. Findings show that integrating Majapahit-era ecological values and local storytelling into eco-brick and composting projects enhanced students’ responsibility, cooperation, and emotional balance. The study synthesizes Eco-pedagogy, Constructivism, and Eco-health frameworks into a Culturally Responsive Eco-Health Pedagogy, demonstrating that sustainability learning rooted in culture and participation promotes both environmental and health outcomes. This model contributes to the global Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) 2030 agenda by linking culture, ecology, and well-being in primary education.

Electronic Medical Records (EMR) are crucial for the quality of healthcare services, but compliance remains a challenge. This study analyzed factors influencing compliance among healthcare workers at a type B private hospital in North Jakarta using a quantitative cross-sectional design with 58 respondents through total sampling. Data were obtained through questionnaires related to individual factors (age, length of service, knowledge), psychological factors (attitude, motivation), and organizational factors (leadership, work design, rewards). The results showed that 72.4% of respondents were compliant. The chi-square test revealed a significant relationship between compliance and age (p=0.042), length of service (p=0.000), knowledge (p=0.001), attitude (p=0.017), motivation (p=0.002), leadership (p=0.046), and rewards (p=0.010), while work design was not significant (p>0.05). Multivariate analysis found age, length of service, knowledge, and leadership as the dominant factors. Healthcare workers with younger age, shorter tenure, good knowledge, positive attitudes, high motivation, good leadership, supportive work designs, and adequate reward systems tend to have higher compliance rates. Improving compliance in completing EMRs depends not only on individual factors but also requires organizational support through effective leadership and management systems. Recommended interventions include improving digital literacy, regular training, strengthening a work culture that emphasizes the importance of medical documentation, and implementing peer learning strategies among healthcare workers to accelerate adaptation and share best practices in completing EMRs.
