Integrating Stunting Education, Sanitation Mapping, and MSME Digitalization through Collaborative KKN in Karang Jati

Sinergi KKN Kolaborasi untuk Edukasi Stunting, Pemetaan Sanitasi, dan Digitalisasi UMKM di Karang Jati

Abstract

This community service article describes the implementation of KKN Kolaborasi 52 in Karang Jati Urban Village, Central Balikpapan, using a participatory and output-oriented approach that integrated three program pillars: stunting-prevention education, sanitation mapping, and digital support for micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs). Door-to-door health education reached 30 RT and targeted pregnant women, breastfeeding mothers, and pre-marital adolescent girls with messages on balanced nutrition, antenatal care, and healthy living. Sanitation mapping across 33 RT identified 12 RT with temporary waste-disposal facilities, two RT with active community waste banks, and three RT with illegal-dumping-prone locations. The economic pillar surveyed 16 MSMEs; five received promotional banners, while all surveyed businesses received mentoring on QRIS and Google Maps registration. Because no pre-post or follow-up outcome measurement was conducted, the evaluation focuses on implementation processes and tangible outputs rather than attributing behavioural, health, or economic effects. The program is conceptually aligned with SDGs 2 and 3, 11 and 12, 8 and 9, and 17. The integrated model demonstrates how KKN can coordinate health, environmental, and local-enterprise support within one kelurahan-based collaboration, while follow-up measurement is needed to assess knowledge retention, waste-bank sustainability, confirmed digital adoption, and changes in business performance.
