2026-02-24T09:47:18+07:00

Border areas possess significant economic potential through the development of local products based on natural resources and local wisdom. Kabupaten Kepulauan Sangihe, particularly Tahuna, is a border region with substantial opportunities to strengthen MSMEs in fisheries, agriculture, and distinctive local food products. However, the utilization of this potential remains constrained by limited market access, technology adoption, and human resource capacity. This Community Service Program (PKM) aims to identify opportunities and challenges in strengthening regional economic development through local products in border areas, using a participatory online approach. The methods employed include socialization sessions, workshops, group discussions, needs assessments of MSME actors, and question-and-answer sessions, all of which serve as indicators of participants’ level of understanding. The results indicate that local products have strong growth potential through the use of digital technology and marketing networks. Nevertheless, MSMEs continue to face challenges related to product quality, business legality, digital literacy, and limited access to financing. This program is expected to serve as a foundation for formulating sustainable MSME strengthening strategies in border areas through technological optimization and improved financial support mechanisms.

Edukasi dan Latihan Relaksasi Otot Progresif untuk Menurunkan Tekanan Darah dan Mengurangi Tingkat Stres Klien Hipertensi di Desa Tambak Cemandi

Hypertension affects approximately 30% of the population in Sedati District, with Tambak Cemandi Village representing a community characterized by a high proportion of elderly residents. Interviews with the local midwife indicate that around 100 elderly individuals regularly participate in elderly health post (posyandu lansia) activities, the majority of whom are affected by hypertension. In response to this, a community service initiative was implemented to deliver targeted education on complementary therapy, specifically progressive muscle relaxation, as a strategy to support blood pressure and stress reduction among elderly individuals with hypertension. The intervention employed a structured approach, incorporating lectures, demonstrations, and interactive discussions. Facilitators provided direct instruction and demonstration of the progressive muscle relaxation technique, followed by participant practice to reinforce skill acquisition. Of the 68 participants, 77% exhibited hypertension with blood pressure exceeding 130/80 mmHg, and 76% reported moderate stress levels. Post-intervention, participants demonstrated the ability to independently perform progressive muscle relaxation and reported subjective improvements in comfort, with the potential for continued practice at home using facilitator-provided materials. These findings suggest that education and training in progressive muscle relaxation can enhance knowledge and self-management capabilities among elderly individuals with hypertension, supporting blood pressure control alongside pharmacological treatment.

Normalisasi dan Pemulihan Masjid Nurul Yaqin Pasca-Banjir Bandang di Aceh Tamiang

2026-04-13T15:24:59+07:00

Flash floods in Aceh Tamiang Regency caused the Nurul Yaqin Mosque in Sapta Marga Village to be used as a temporary evacuation shelter, leading to severe post-disaster sanitation problems. The mosque was heavily contaminated by mud deposits and major impurities due to inadequate sanitation facilities, rendering it unsuitable for worship. This Community Service (PKM) program aims to restore the mosque’s function as a sacred place of worship and a center of community resilience. The method employed is the APKL approach (Actual, Problematic, Feasibility, and Appropriateness), implemented through outreach, education on fiqh thaharah (Islamic purification procedures), and technical cleaning using high-pressure water compressor technology. The results indicate that the mosque has been successfully cleaned and purified in accordance with Islamic law, making it fit for congregational worship again. The success indicators include the restoration of cleanliness and sanctity of the mosque, improved community understanding of purification procedures, and the reactivation of the mosque as a center for religious and social activities. Additionally, the program encourages community participation and creates economic empowerment opportunities for local youth through the use of cleaning technology to establish a sustainable vehicle washing business (doorsmeer). This program demonstrates that post-disaster mosque restoration not only addresses physical recovery but also strengthens social resilience and community economic independence.

Non-Communicable Diseases (NCDs), including hypertension and diabetes mellitus (DM), are increasingly prevalent health concerns with the potential to cause serious complications, such as visual impairment. Insufficient public awareness regarding early detection of risk factors remains a primary contributor to delayed treatment. The Community Service Program was designed to enhance public knowledge and awareness through educational initiatives and early detection of NCD risk factors and eye health issues. The program was conducted using a participatory, in-person approach that incorporated health education and basic health screenings. The target population comprised residents of RT 03/RW 11 Kampung Sukasukur, with the involvement of local health cadres. Success indicators included community participation rates, the effective execution of screening activities, and the identification of health risk factors. The program achieved active community engagement. Health screenings identified a high prevalence of hypertension (70%), as well as several individuals with elevated uric acid and cholesterol levels. Additionally, two cases of cataracts and multiple instances of eye complaints, such as red eyes, were detected. The program positively influenced public understanding of healthy lifestyles and the importance of early disease detection, while also generating health data for use by health cadres in subsequent interventions.
