Abstract
Used cooking oil (UCO) is household waste almost always produced daily. If consumed continuously, it can harm the body and trigger various diseases. Used cooking oil problems also occur in households in Turi District, Sleman. The program aims to improve knowledge and skills in using used cooking oil waste to create more valuable goods, with target partners of the ‘Aisyiyah Branch Leadership (PRA) Donokerto I, Turi, with 30 participants. Community service is carried out through several methods, namely socialization, extension courses, demonstrations, training, practice, and mentoring. Evaluation is carried out during and after activities, with pre-tests and post-tests, and the products produced are assessed. Community service increased the knowledge and skills of ‘Aisyiyah’s members in managing used cooking oil to turn it into more valuable goods. The participation rate of participants in various activities reached 90%. The knowledge of ‘Aisyiyah members about the dangers of using cooking oil, based on the results of the pre-test and post-test, increased from a score of 67 to 83 (on a scale of 100), and most participants (90%) stated that they would change the pattern of used cooking oil management from what was previously only thrown away to be processed into aromatic candles and hand soap.
