Educational inequality in Indonesia remains a significant challenge, as reflected in the low proportion of citizens with higher education degrees and the predominance of high school graduates as the highest educational attainment. University students, as part of the educated minority, hold a moral responsibility to redistribute the academic privilege they possess to the broader community. This article presents a report on a Community Service Program (PKM) titled It’s English Buddy, an online English-teaching initiative launched by students of the International Relations Study Program at UPN Veteran Jakarta. The program offers individual and group English conversation sessions at affordable prices, adopting a non-distributing profit approach to ensure operational sustainability. Supported by literature on the effectiveness of online learning in enhancing academic performance through flexibility and accessibility, the program has successfully reached participants of various ages and backgrounds. The results show that most participants are women and were recruited primarily through personal networks, highlighting the importance of public communication strategies and trust-building. Overall, It’s English Buddy demonstrates the potential of student-led grassroots educational initiatives as a meaningful contribution to expanding learning opportunities within society.

This study explores the impact of organizational culture, motivation, and job satisfaction on the performance of Civil Servants (ASN) at the Karawang Regency Environmental Service. The study involved 95 ASN participants, with data collected through a quantitative census method. Multiple linear regression analysis was conducted using SPSS 25 to evaluate the data obtained from questionnaires. The results indicate that organizational culture and motivation have a significant positive impact on civil servant performance, suggesting that as organizational culture and work motivation improve, so does the performance of civil servants. However, job satisfaction was found to have no significant effect on performance. This implies that while job satisfaction may play a role, it is less influential on civil servant performance compared to work culture and intrinsic motivation. The study also reveals that 62.3% of civil servant performance is influenced by organizational culture, motivation, and job satisfaction, while 37.7% is driven by other unassessed factors. These findings highlight the importance of fostering a positive work culture and enhancing employee motivation as key strategies for improving performance in government agencies. The study underscores the need for public sector organizations to focus on these internal factors to achieve higher performance levels.

The high consumer interest in food makes culinary businesses play a crucial role in meeting consumer purchasing interest in culinary. This is a crucial concern and task for all parties, both the government and food producers, to maintain the safety of the food they produce. Both in terms of nutrition, hygiene, safety, halal certification, and so on must be a serious concern for producers. One of the government's programs to ensure food products are safe for public consumption is by issuing distribution permits in the form of PIRT (home industry food) permits and Halal Certification, which are official guarantees from the government, so that food products can be distributed and are safe for consumption by all consumers. PIRT is issued through a supervisory body, namely the Health Office located in a Regency. Along with this, various opportunities to improve marketing performance arise through the marketplace platform. This community service approach uses an empowerment approach to the benefits of PIRT, Halal Certification and digital marketing through the marketplace platform to increase consumer trust in products and marketing performance. Through this service, the product value increases, by obtaining PIRT permits and Halal Certification, and the STIE Gentiaras student product has a wider marketing reach through the marketplace platform.

The adoption of Hospital Information Systems (HIS) is a crucial step toward improving healthcare service delivery, especially in public hospitals in developing countries. RSUD Prof. Dr. H. Aloei Saboe, a referral hospital in Gorontalo, Indonesia, has implemented the SIMRS Khanza system to digitize inpatient registration and medical documentation. However, limited evaluation has been conducted to assess its effectiveness beyond technical performance. This study aims to evaluate the implementation of SIMRS Khanza using the Human-Organization-Technology Fit (HOT-Fit) framework, which examines the alignment between users, institutional support, and system quality. A qualitative descriptive method was employed, involving in-depth interviews, non-participatory observations, and document reviews with eight informants, including medical record officers, system coordinators, and hospital management. The findings reveal that although most users reported improved efficiency and satisfaction, several issues persist: incomplete training, limited adherence to SOPs, and system performance lags during peak hours. Organizational support was present but inconsistent, and documentation policies lacked specificity for digital contexts. Technologically, the system demonstrated stable output, but responsiveness and integration require enhancement. The synthesis of findings suggests that success in HIS implementation is contingent upon not only system reliability but also continuous user engagement, structured training, and dynamic policy support. Therefore, a holistic strategy integrating human, organizational, and technological components is essential to optimize SIMRS performance and sustainability.
