Diphtheria, caused by Corynebacterium diphtheriae, is a significant public health threat, particularly in areas with low immunization coverage. Despite national immunization programs, sporadic outbreaks continue to occur, especially in East Java, which reported the highest number of cases in 2021. The disease is transmitted through respiratory droplets and can lead to severe complications if not diagnosed and treated promptly. Diphtheria mortality can be reduced with appropriate treatment, along with good immunization status. Diagnosis can be made both clinically and through laboratory tests, including culturing the diphtheria bacteria from swabs of affected tissues. This community service program aimed to enhance the capacity of healthcare workers in East Java, specifically in Sampang Regency, to manage diphtheria through training that included both theoretical and practical components. The training methods used included pre- and post-tests to assess knowledge, mini lectures on epidemiology, clinical symptoms, diphtheria vaccination, and management, along with case simulations to improve participants' practical skills. The program was attended by 42 participants from various healthcare professions, including doctors, nurses, health analysts, and surveillance officers The evaluation demonstrated a significant improvement in participants' knowledge after the training. This program contributed meaningfully to enhancing preparedness among local healthcare providers and is expected to support more robust early detection and response systems for diphtheria outbreaks in the future.

Penerapan Polikultur Ikan Mas (Cyprinus carpio) dan Ikan Nila (Oreochromis niloticus) dalam Kolam Air Deras untuk Meningkatkan Efisiensi Pakan dan Produksi di Kelompok Upaya Mina, Sumedang

The Upaya Mina Group in Banyuasih, Sumedang, cultivates common carp using a running water pond system but faces challenges due to rising feed costs that are not matched by the selling price of fish. This community service activity aims to provide a solution through the implementation of a polyculture system combining common carp and Nile tilapia to improve feed efficiency. The method used involved educational outreach through demonstrations and pilot trials at the group’s aquaculture site. The trial results showed that the polyculture system produced 810 kg of fish with a feed efficiency of 76%. In comparison, the group’s previous monoculture system yielded only 640 kg with a feed efficiency of 59%, despite using the same amount of feed, which was 1 ton. The implementation of the polyculture system increased production by 170 kg and feed efficiency by 17%. Thus, the polyculture system not only boosts production but also offers a practical solution to the problem of high feed costs.

Sawapudo Village fishermen will benefit from this community service project because it will increase their awareness of fishing techniques that are less harmful to the environment. There is a lack of awareness among fishermen regarding the consequences of utilizing fishing gear that is harmful to the marine ecosystem, which is why this training is so crucial. Some of the methods that are utilized include lectures, hands-on field practice, and interactive and interactive conversations. Twenty fishermen participated in this exercise, which was carried out in conjunction with the administration of the community. The findings of the evaluation indicate that the participants have a better comprehension of the significance of marine conservation, the selection of fishing gear that is responsible for the environment, and the support of government rules that are associated with the management of sustainable fisheries populations. Through the use of participative and educational methods, this exercise demonstrates that the mentality of fishermen can be changed to become more responsible and sustainable in their fishing practices. Because of this, it is strongly suggested that training of this kind be maintained and carried out in other coastal locations that have features that are equivalent to those of the current area.
