Answering the Call for Retail Sustainability with Participatory Action Research
Pandangan atas keberlanjutan mendorong adanya kebutuhan untuk memenuhi persyaratan element Environment, Social dan Goverance (ESG) sebagai standar global laporan perusahaan yang dipublikasikan. Artikel ini mencakup kegiatan pengabdian masyarakat (abdimas) di Alfamart, yang dikelola sebagai Participatory Action Research (PAR) untuk meningkatkan kualitas pelaporan ESG yang dilaksanakan pada bulan Juli sampai dengan Desember 2024. Tujuan utama dari studi ini adalah melakukan penelaahan atas proses pelaporan yang berlaku saat ini agar bisa merancang serangkaian langkah yang dibutuhkan untuk perbaikan. Setelah penelitian selesai dilakukan, artikel ini menjadi dokumentasi terpublikasi atas lokakarya yang dilaksanakan pada tanggal 14 Oktober 2024 sebagai bagian dari abdimas ini. Metode kualitatif yang digunakan untuk PAR ini mencakup pengumpulan data dan analisis konten laporan-laporan ESG, konfirmasi melalui diskusi lokakarya, dan pelaporan atas rekomendasi perbaikan. Seperti yang telah didiskusikan saat lokakarya, terdapat perbedaan antara persepsi peneliti dan pembuat laporan karena cara penyajian yang berbeda dalam mengungkapkan informasi yang ada pada laporan. Laporan tahunan Alfamart dibuat dengan berbagai tampilan berdasarkan informasi apa dan seberapa banyak informasi yang dikumpulkan sehingga mengakibatkan adanya gaya pelaporan yang berbeda. Dengan demikian, lokakarya yang dilaksanakan memfasilitasi proses pembelajaran sehingga Alfamart dapat menentukan rencana aksi yang dibutuhkan untuk memperbaiki proses pelaporan, dan, pada akhirnya, mendorong tiap divisi untuk mengevaluasi kembali sistim informasi manajemen masing-masing. Pada akhirnya, PAR ini dibutuhkan intuk mengoptimalisasi representasi ESG Alfamart pada laporan-laporan yang terpublikasi. Current views on sustainability have led to the requirements for Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) elements in published company reports as the global standard. This article encompasses the community service at Alfamart, which was organized as a Participatory Action Research (PAR) on improving ESG reporting conducted from July to December 2024. The main objective of this study was to review the existing reporting process to design the course of action required for improvements. Upon completion of the research, this article serves as a published documentation of the workshop conducted on 14th October 2024 as part of this community service. The qualitative method designed for this PAR consisted of data collection and content analysis of the ESG reports, confirmations through workshop discussions, and reporting of recommended actions. As discussed during the workshop, there were discrepancies between the researchers’ and the report makers’ perceptions due to the inconsistent reporting style of the disclosed information in the reports. Alfamart’s annual reports were produced in different ways, based on what kind and how much information was collected, which led to the distinct reporting styles. Therefore, the workshop facilitated a learning process so that Alfamart was able to set action plans to improve the reporting process and, in turn, require each division to improve its own data and information management. Eventually, this PAR was necessary for optimizing Alfamart’s ESG representation in the published reports.

Pelatihan Digitalisasi Keuangan UMKM Desa Ndudak Sidodadi melalui Aplikasi Akuntansi Dasar Si Apik
Transformasi digital dalam sistem keuangan merupakan kebutuhan mendesak bagi pelaku UMKM untuk mencapai efisiensi, transparansi, dan kesinambungan usaha. Namun demikian, pelaku UMKM di daerah perdesaan masih mengalami hambatan serius dalam aspek literasi keuangan dan penerapan teknologi pencatatan digital. Kegiatan pengabdian ini bertujuan untuk meningkatkan kemampuan pelaku UMKM di RT 3 RW 3 Desa Ndudak Sidodadi, Kecamatan Mijen, Kota Semarang, dalam menerapkan pencatatan keuangan menggunakan aplikasi sederhana seperti Si APIK, BukuKas, dan Microsoft Excel. Metodologi kegiatan mencakup tahap observasi, pelatihan teknis, pendampingan, serta evaluasi berbasis partisipasi. Hasil pelaksanaan menunjukkan bahwa 80% peserta sudah mulai melakukan pencatatan transaksi secara teratur, 60% telah mampu menyusun laporan keuangan dasar, dan 65% dapat menjalankan aplikasi digital secara mandiri. Fakta ini memperlihatkan bahwa metode pelatihan berbasis praktik langsung dan kontekstual lebih efektif dibandingkan pendekatan konvensional dalam menjembatani kesenjangan digital. Hambatan yang masih ditemukan antara lain adalah kurangnya kepercayaan diri dalam mengakses teknologi, terbatasnya jaringan internet, serta ketergantungan terhadap pendamping. Oleh karena itu, keterlibatan mentor lokal menjadi solusi strategis untuk memastikan keberlanjutan program. Kegiatan ini telah berhasil meletakkan dasar bagi digitalisasi keuangan UMKM di tingkat komunitas perdesaan, dan model ini memungkinkan untuk diadaptasi di wilayah lain dengan kondisi serupa. Digital transformation in the financial system is an urgent need for MSMEs to achieve efficiency, transparency, and business sustainability. However, MSMEs in rural areas still face serious obstacles in financial literacy and the implementation of digital recording technology. This community service activity aims to improve the capabilities of MSMEs in RT 3 RW 3, Ndudak Sidodadi Village, Mijen District, Semarang City, in implementing financial recording using simple applications such as Si APIK, BukuKas, and Microsoft Excel. The activity methodology includes observation, technical training, mentoring, and participatory evaluation. The implementation results show that 80% of participants have started recording transactions regularly, 60% have been able to prepare basic financial reports, and 65% can run digital applications independently. This fact shows that hands-on and contextual training methods are more effective than conventional approaches in bridging the digital divide. Barriers that are still encountered include a lack of confidence in accessing technology, limited internet access, and dependence on mentors. Therefore, the involvement of local mentors is a strategic solution to ensure the sustainability of the program. This initiative has successfully laid the foundation for the digitalization of MSME finance at the rural community level, and this model can be adapted to other areas with similar conditions.

Program TANGGUH: Membangun Ketangguhan Para Pekerja Migran Indonesia di Taiwan
Pekerja migran Indonesia di Taiwan merupakan kelompok rentan yang menghadapi tekanan fisik dan psikososial, termasuk jam kerja panjang, kurang tidur, dan keterbatasan akses layanan kesehatan. Program TANGGUH (Tumbuh Adaptif dan Guyub Untuk Hidup Sehat) dikembangkan untuk memperkuat resiliensi pekerja migran melalui pendekatan komunitas yang mencakup edukasi kesehatan, skrining gula darah sewaktu, dan konseling psikososial individual. Sebanyak 40 peserta (30 perempuan dan 10 laki-laki; usia 26–55 tahun) mengikuti kegiatan ini. Hasil skrining menunjukkan 45% peserta berada dalam kategori prediabetes (140–199 mg/dL) dan 5% dengan kadar gula darah ≥200 mg/dL. Hasil konseling mengungkapkan bahwa 45% mengalami stres kerja, 25% gangguan tidur, dan 30% merasa kesepian akibat sistem kerja tinggal bersama. Evaluasi pengetahuan menunjukkan peningkatan rata-rata sebesar 21,9% setelah intervensi, mencakup aspek manajemen stres, tidur, gaya hidup sehat, dan resiliensi sosial. Temuan ini menunjukkan bahwa intervensi sederhana berbasis komunitas dapat meningkatkan kesadaran kesehatan, memperkuat kemampuan koping, serta membangun dukungan sosial di antara pekerja migran. Program TANGGUH berkontribusi dalam memperkuat ketangguhan individu dan kolektif pekerja migran Indonesia di Taiwan serta berpotensi direplikasi pada komunitas rentan lainnya. Indonesian migrant workers in Taiwan represent a vulnerable group facing physical and psychosocial pressures, including long working hours, disrupted sleep patterns, and limited access to healthcare services. The TANGGUH Program (Tumbuh Adaptif dan Guyub Untuk Hidup Sehat — Growing Adaptively and Living Harmoniously for Better Health) was developed to strengthen their resilience through a community-based approach integrating health education, random blood glucose screening, and individual psychosocial counseling. A total of 40 participants (30 females and 10 males; aged 26–55 years) joined the program. Screening results showed that 45% of participants had blood glucose levels within the prediabetic range (140–199 mg/dL) and 5% had levels ≥200 mg/dL. Psychosocial counseling revealed that 45% experienced work-related stress, 25% suffered from sleep disturbances, and 30% reported loneliness due to live-in caregiving arrangements. The pre–post evaluation indicated an average 21.9% increase in knowledge scores after the health education session, covering stress management, sleep hygiene, healthy lifestyle, and social support. These findings demonstrate that simple community-based interventions can effectively improve health awareness, coping capacity, and social connectedness among migrant workers. The TANGGUH Program contributes to strengthening both individual and collective resilience of Indonesian migrant workers in Taiwan and serves as a potential model for replication in other vulnerable communities.

Pemberdayaan UMKM Catering An-Nisa 36 melalui Pemberian Modal Usaha dan Pelatihan Kewirausahaan Syariah
Program pengabdian masyarakat ini dilaksanakan pada UMKM An-Nisa 36 dengan tujuan meningkatkan kapasitas produksi serta memperkuat keberlanjutan usaha berbasis makanan halal. Tahap awal dilakukan melalui survei untuk mengidentifikasi kebutuhan mendesak, yang menunjukkan keterbatasan sarana produksi, khususnya kompor gas. Sebagai solusi, tim pengabdian memberikan bantuan kompor gas yang langsung dimanfaatkan dalam produksi pesanan, seperti untuk kegiatan posyandu anak dan lansia. Selanjutnya, pada momentum 17 Agustus, tingginya permintaan tumpeng mendorong pemberian tambahan bantuan berupa loyang brownies untuk mendukung diversifikasi produk. Pendampingan yang dilakukan tidak hanya berfokus pada penyediaan sarana, tetapi juga melibatkan proses produksi, manajemen waktu, serta penerapan prinsip halalan toyyiban. Hasil kegiatan menunjukkan peningkatan efisiensi, produktivitas, serta kesadaran pentingnya menjaga kehalalan produk. Dengan adanya program ini, UMKM An-Nisa 36 diharapkan semakin mandiri, berdaya saing, dan mampu memenuhi kebutuhan pasar secara berkelanjutan. This community service program was carried out at UMKM An-Nisa 36 with the aim of increasing production capacity and strengthening the sustainability of halal-based food businesses. The initial stage was conducted through a survey to identify urgent needs, which revealed limitations in production facilities, particularly the absence of a gas stove. As a solution, the team provided a gas stove that was immediately utilized in fulfilling orders, such as for community health center (posyandu) events for children and the elderly. Furthermore, during the Independence Day celebration on August 17, the high demand for tumpeng encouraged the provision of an additional tool in the form of a brownie pan to support product diversification. The assistance program not only focused on providing equipment but also involved direct participation in production, time management, and the application of the halalan toyyiban principle. The results showed improvements in efficiency, productivity, and awareness of the importance of maintaining product halal integrity. Through this program, UMKM An-Nisa 36 is expected to become more independent, competitive, and capable of meeting market demands sustainably.

Lokasi tempat pencucian mobil berada di jalan Raya Talok, Dukuh Turi, Kecamatan Bumiayu, Kabupaten Brebes. Permasalahan yang timbul saat ini adalah pembukuan keuangan masih dilakukan secara manual menggunakan “buku besar”. Pembukuan tersebut terkadang terdapat kesalahan ataupun kekurangan terhadap keuangan yang masuk dan keluar termasuk jumlah mobil dan sepeda motor yang telah selesai dicuci. Pemilik BRJ Cucian Mobil & Motor terkadang sulit melakukan analisis terkait pembukuan tempat usahanya. Hal tersebut dikarenakan terdapat ketidak cocokan antara mobil dan sepeda motor yang dilayani terhadap keuangan yang masuk. Sehingga diperlukan sebuah sistem informasi yang dapat diakses secara real-time oleh pemilik serta pemilik dapat langsung mengontrol pembukuan yang ada. Perancangan Data Flow Diagram (DFD) dan sistem informasi berbasis web dilaksanakan pada Pengabdian Masyarakat ini. Hasil dari Pengabdian Masyarakat ini yaitu sebuah sistem informasi berbasis web yang digunakan pembukuan keuangan BRJ Cucian Mobil & Motor. According to data from the Central Statistics Agency (BPS) of Brebes Regency in 2023, 826,023 people had jobs. 189,397 of them were independent (opened their own businesses) and 130,424 of them were engaged in the service sector. One of those who has their own business is BRJ Car & Motorcycle Wash. BRJ Car & Motorcycle Wash is a business that focuses on providing car and motorcycle washing services. The location of the car wash is on Jalan Raya Talok, Dukuh Turi, Bumiayu District, Brebes Regency. The problem that arises currently is that financial bookkeeping is still done manually using a "ledger". The bookkeeping sometimes contains errors or deficiencies in incoming and outgoing finances including the number of cars and motorbikes that have been washed. The owner of BRJ Car & Motorcycle Wash sometimes finds it difficult to analyze the bookkeeping of his business. This is because there is a mismatch between the cars and motorbikes served and the incoming finances. Therefore, an information system is needed that can be accessed in real time by the owner and the owner can directly control the existing bookkeeping. The design of Data Flow Diagram (DFD) and web-based information system was implemented in this Community Service. The result of this Community Service is a web-based information system used for financial bookkeeping of BRJ Car & Motorcycle Wash.

Menopause Health Education and Dhikr Techniques for Managing Menopausal Anxiety at 'Aisyiyah Member in Wonosari, Bondowoso
Hormonal fluctuations during menopause often cause physical and psychological changes, including increased anxiety. A lack of understanding about menopause and strategies for managing anxiety can negatively impact women's well-being. This community service program aims to increase women's knowledge about menopause and introduce dhikr (remembrance of God) as a spiritual method for managing anxiety. Participants were 43 women from the Wonosari of 'Aisyiyah, Bondowoso. They were purposively selected active women in the perimenopausal to menopausal age range. Recruitment was conducted through coordination with 'Aisyiyah administrators and those willing to participate in this activity. The intervention program consisted of a menopausal health education session covering hormonal changes, physical and emotional symptoms, health risks, and coping strategies through interactive lectures and Q&A sessions, accompanied by visual presentations to facilitate understanding. Next, participants engaged in a guided dhikr practice session that covered breathing techniques and the repetition of dhikr phrases. We used pretests and posttests to assess increases in participants' knowledge and changes in their anxiety levels. Results showed a significant increase in knowledge, with the number of participants in the good knowledge category increasing from 16 to 35. The dhikr intervention was also effective in reducing anxiety, as evidenced by the increase in participants with no anxiety from 10 to 22 and the disappearance of the severe anxiety category. These findings confirm that the combination of menopausal health education and dhikr practice can be an effective and applicable strategy to help women navigate hormonal changes more adaptively and confidently. This program has the potential to be replicated in other communities to improve the well-being of menopausal women more broadly.
