Abstract

Hypertension is often referred to as "the silent killer" because it often goes without complaints, so sufferers do not know that they have hypertension but then find that they already have a disease or complications from hypertension. Hypertension treatment or prevention can be done traditionally using Family Medicinal Plants (TOGA). TOGA is increasingly preferred because of its low side effects and is more suitable for various metabolic and degenerative diseases. An area with a high incidence of hypertension is the Dadok Tunggul Hitam Padang Community Health Center. The high incidence of hypertension in this area is because people do not comply with the diet of hypertensive patients and do not know the correct treatment methods. Thus, it is essential to educate people in the area about the treatment of hypertension using family medicinal plants. The activity was carried out on 28 July 2023 by conducting a pretest first to determine the community's understanding before providing intervention, then continuing with providing education and handing over Family Medicinal Plant (TOGA) seeds to hypertension patients and at the end of the session a posttest was carried out again. The results were that public knowledge before education was 65% and after education was 100%. There was increasing in knowledge scores because people were enthusiastic about participating in education. The suggestion for the community health center is to monitor the results of this education.

Abstract

Eco-enzyme is one of the solutions for waste organic management to become a higher-value product. As a tourist village, Kunjir village is one of the banana producers, where it needs help with garbage or banana waste from plantations. This waste can damage beauty and pollute the environment. Therefore, this engagement in community activity in waste organic management from banana peels is necessary to implement zero waste and a healthy environment. We aimed to improve the knowledge and skills of the local community in waste management. Banana peels become eco-enzyme and soap that contains eco-enzyme products. The eco-enzyme information was delivered first and then followed by practice or simulation. Twenty-five respondents were dominated by household wives, with ages 31-40 years as much as 36%, 41-50 years 28%, 51-60 years 25%, and 21-30 years 12%. According to the measurement of the initial score, 48% of respondents have good knowledge, and 92% have improved after following the training. We conclude that 44% of the total score of respondents was improved. Through this training, it is hoped that we can improve banana waste processing and improve our skills in processing eco-enzyme organic waste into a liquid rich in benefits, especially as a cleaning agent. This activity is essential in initiating waste management and implementing a healthy environment. Furthermore, it can encourage self-resilience and the development of a tourist village.

Abstract

Transparent and accountable reporting of financial information is essential in managing Village-Owned Enterprises (BUMDes). BUMDes Sumber Arto has a capital structure that comes from village funds, community funds, and village assets, so many parties are interested in the transparency of the management of these funds. The lack of competence and capacity of BUMDes directors and administrators in preparing reports causes the financial reports that have been prepared to be rejected by the village government. The accountability and transparency of fund management in BUMDes need to be clarified. This partnership program aims to transfer technology and knowledge regarding understanding accounting and presenting financial reports so that it can provide transparent and accountable information to the village government, management, community, and inspectorates. The approach used is Participatory Rural Appraisal (PRA) in counseling, mentoring, and training. The target community is the director and administrators of BUMDes Sumber Arto, Kenteng Village. The service activities were carried out from July to August 2023. The results of the service activities were that the BUMDes Director and BUMDes administrators could identify each business unit's business activities, strengths, and weaknesses. Furthermore, understanding of the accounting side of accounting began to increase, and the successful determination of the chart of accounts proved this. Furthermore, at the transaction input stage, continuous assistance is still needed so that manual notes can be minimized, and we can switch to a spreadsheet system, which is relatively easy to implement.

Abstract

Plastic waste is the main problem of environmental pollution at SDN Gebang 1, an Adiwiyata school in Demak Regency. Piles of plastic waste need to be appropriately managed because they need to create a better impression of the vision and mission of the Adiwiyata School. Another problem was seen during the rainy season when plastic waste blocked the water flow. SDN Gebang 1 experienced flooding until the water entered the classrooms. One of the efforts made by the school is through collaboration with OISCA to make it a green school. However, schools still need help with waste handling in the school area. The program aims to utilize waste through Eco-Paving Blocks. The community service method includes five stages: socialization, training, application of technology, mentoring, and monitoring. The activities obtained results from using plastic waste in the elementary school environment, which was 100% because partners agreed that plastic waste must be managed well. Applying the TTG Eco-Paving Block tool is easy to use, with results of 85.25%. The successful implementation of the activity received a score of 90.50%. Partners can utilize 87.50% of plastic waste through the TTG Eco-Paving Block tool. The implementation of practical activities by teachers obtained results of 92.25%. Thus, teachers need assistance utilizing plastic waste through the TTG Eco-Paving Block tool, which helps reduce plastic waste at SDN Gebang 1.

Abstract

Bridge infrastructure is critical in connecting one region with other areas separated by rivers or ravines. In Minangkabau, a type of bridge is built using the Ba Atok Bridge roof. This bridge structure is characterised by pointed roof-like buffalo horns, where the Minangkabau people are known as Gonjong. The remaining Ba Atok Bridge is located in Padang City, specifically in Guo Village, Jalan Lubuak Tampuruang, Kuranji Village, Kuranji District, Padang City, with a bridge length of 16 meters. The community needs the Ba Atok Bridge as a bridge to cross the river to gardens, schools, madrasas, mosques, and other villages. Its unique shape has charm, and this is one of the cultural heritage assets that must be maintained as a characteristic bridge between the nuances of traditional Minangkabau culture. Therefore, the Community Service Team of the Faculty of Engineering, Andalas University, is also collaborating with the Tourism Awareness Group (POKDARWIS), which also has the same initiative, namely carrying out bridge restoration with traditional Minangkabau cultural nuances. Restoration begins with identifying damage, discussing it with community groups, making an architectural design, submitting a proposal to Bank Nagari, and repairing the bridge's upper frame. The Ba Atokini bridge restoration activities impact crossing access and have become characteristic of the Guo Tourism Village, which POKDARWIS manages.

Abstract

Community service was conducted at the Balai Gadang Sapan livestock group in the Rambatan sub-district, Tanah Datar district. This group's businesses are beef cattle breeding and organic fertilizer processing. The problem with group businesses is that management and business knowledge still need to be higher. Group members still need help to apply management and business principles in managing the business. This community engagement aims to develop the Balai Gadang Sapan group business by increasing the performance and productivity of the beef cattle breeding and organic fertilizer processing business (UPPO) through implementing management aspects in the group business. The methods for carrying out activities were lectures, discussions, mentoring, and demonstrations. The stage carried out in implementing those four methods was the preparation stage, namely preparing material related to completing the solution in the form of PowerPoint, modules, banners, and leaflets. At the implementation stage, modules were distributed to participants, and the material was later. The evaluation stage involved participants filling out a prepared questionnaire. This evaluation was carried out to determine the group's ability to implement management aspects. The results of this activity were five essential aspects that must be applied in group management: making plans consisting of learning and business planning, organizing, and carrying out activities, evaluating business activities, and cadre of management. The group's ability to apply management aspects can be improved at the intermediate and primary levels.

Abstract

The modern society lifestyle triggers a tendency for people to consume fast food with high-calorie, low-nutrient, and low-fiber. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, society is becoming more aware of maintaining health by consuming healthy and nutritious foods. Therefore, the target of this educational webinar program was educated individuals in the education sector, and they were expected to influence their surrounding communities to adopt healthy eating patterns through the consumption of functional foods. Oil-in-water (O/W) food emulsions such as milk, mayonnaise, and creamer are widely consumed in processed foods. The development of Fiber CrèmeTM creamer as a substitute for milk/coconut milk, which is low sugar, trans-fat-free, and high fiber, has been produced by PT. LNK to enhance the taste of processed foods and beverages. Compounds such as vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants can be encapsulated within the emulsion system, such as using Virgin Coconut Oil (VCO) in creamer products. This webinar was attended by 103 participants, with 80% coming from the education sector. The participants' high level of knowledge and awareness was reflected through online questionnaires and comments. This educational webinar encourages the community to sustainably enhance body immunity by consuming functional foods.

This community service project aims to raise awareness and demonstrate the process of converting corn plant waste into compost. The project involved socializing, training, and practical demonstrations on composting corn crop waste. These activities have been conducted through counseling sessions, focus group discussions, and hands-on training from June to August 2022. Following the activities, an evaluation was conducted through discussions with the participants. The project's initial result was that ten stakeholders participated in the socialization of using corn crop waste for composting. Additionally, 15 Batang Piarau Jorong Sago farmer group members in Kenagarian Manggopoh have received training and successfully produced compost from corn stalk waste generated from animal feed crops.

Abstract

Gambir, an extract derived from the leaves and branches of the gambir plant, holds significant potential for enhancing the local economy and its benefits as a cosmetics product. Jorong Balai Tampuak Pinang, Nagari Simpang Kapuak, Kecamatan Mungka, was one of the areas producing traditional gambir in Lima Puluh Kota district, West Sumatra, Indonesia. This community service initiative aimed to augment the economic value of gambir from its processing to raw materials of bath soap. The initiative began with an educational session for training participants, outlining the advantages of gambir in skincare and how to incorporate it into bath soap formulations. Following the learning session, participants actively produced gambir-contained bath soap utilizing the provided formula. The activity received favorable feedback from participants who appreciated enhancing knowledge and skills. The outcomes of this endeavor underscore the substantial potential of developing body care products utilizing gambir as a primary ingredient. Participant testimonials underscore the need to conduct similar community engagement activities to harness Gambir's further utilization of other personal care products. The collaboration between the pharmacy study program and the local community has opened new avenues for local economic development and sustainable growth, significantly impacting the local population's well-being in the region.
