Abstract

The phenomenon of sexual violence against children is increasingly frequent and has become global in various countries. 1 in 5 Women and 1 in 13 Men report experiencing sexual violence as a child/adolescent, 12% of children worldwide experienced sexual violence in the past year, and 37% of countries implement sexual violence prevention interventions on a larger scale. One of them is by providing health information to children through interesting media so that children can absorb information and apply it easily. The purpose of this community service is to increase children's knowledge about sexual violence prevention using comic media. This method of community service is with a classical and individual approach, where the individual approach measures the level of knowledge using pre-post. The partner in this activity is Puskesmas Marawola, Sigi Central Sulawesi. This activity was attended by 25 vulnerable children between the ages of 10 – 19 years and their parents. The results obtained in this activity were before the education of respondents who had a good level of knowledge of 14 (56%) while after education there were 23 (92%) respondents with good knowledge. So it can be concluded that there is an increase in children's knowledge before and after health education is carried out.
