IMPROVING VILLAGE’S ENVIRONMENT THROUGH COMMUNITY OUTREACH PROGRAM, SEKETI-JATIDUKUH VILLAGE, MOJOKERTO REGENCY

Abstract

Seketi sub-Village has many potentials, for example the human resource and also the villagers can cooperate very well and friendly. There is a youth organization in the village and they are very active especially in sport. They won the volley-ball competition several times, and it was a good opportunity to improve their skill but unfortunately, they do not have a proper volley-ball court at the village for practicing. Other than that, they are very eager to learn something new, for example Photoshop™ and public speaking to improve their soft-skills and knowledge. The problems in this village are the water source, broken buildings, and unclean environment. Therefore, our group proposes some activities such as make a well for the villagers, fix the broken building especially the Al-Quran learning centre building, paint the sub-village hall, and provide some trash-cans. We also share our knowledge about others countries culture through languages to the elementary school students. After that, we organize an event to introduce others countries cultures through each country’s local dishes, and we share and enjoy it together with the villagers.
