GIS-Enhanced Survey of Potential Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus Artificial Oviposition Containers Distributed across Communities in Trinidad, West Indies.

Dengue and other arboviruses remain a global threat, and enhanced efforts to control the mosquitoes that transmit them are urgently needed. A survey of potential manmade Aedes aegypti (L.) and Aedes albopictus (Skuse) oviposition containers was performed in four communities near the end of the typical dry season in 2018 in Trinidad, West Indies. The purpose was to conduct individual premise surveys and use GIS mapping to visualize premises within communities that had Aedes-positive containers, as this information could be used for the prioritization of mosquito control efforts in potential high risk areas as the wet season progressed. Accessible premises were surveyed following standard inspection protocols used by the Insect Vector Control Division (IVCD), Ministry of Health (MOH). The results indicated that two of the four locations would be at high risk for arbovirus transmission going into the wet season. The GIS mapping of premises with Aedes-positive containers facilitated the identification of potential hot spots for arbovirus transmission risk within communities that should be prioritized for enhanced monitoring and vector control efforts, emphasizing the need to increase community participation in standard surveys by IVCD.

Exploring the role of regional capacity in human resource development in Indonesia

The role of local government in regional development planning is an essential topic in the context of sustainable local development. This study aimed to analyze the role of local governments in regional development planning and their impact on the effectiveness and sustainability of development at the local level. The research method used is a qualitative approach with data collection techniques through in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and document analysis related to regional development policies and regulations. This research was conducted in several districts/cities in certain regions, considering diverse geographical, social, and economic contexts. The results showed that the role of local governments in regional development planning is vital in coordinating various interests, resources, and related actors. Local governments act as regulators, facilitators, and implementers in determining the direction, policies, and allocation of development resources. In addition, community and private-sector involvement is also recognized as an integral part of democratic and inclusive planning processes. The impact of the role of local governments in regional development planning can be seen in increasing the effectiveness of development programs, increasing community participation, reducing regional disparities, and improving the community’s quality of life. Nevertheless, challenges such as corruption, lack of interagency coordination, and political uncertainty remain obstacles that must be overcome. This study concludes that the role of local governments in regional development planning is a critical factor in achieving sustainable regional development. Therefore, measures are needed to strengthen institutional capacity, increase transparency, and strengthen public participation to ensure sustainable and inclusive development planning at the local level.

MEASUREMENT OF WATER DISCHARGE OF SAKARTEMEN RIVER TO IDENTIFY POTENTIAL OF MICRO HYDRO POWER PLANT IN FAKFAK REGENCY

Fakfak Regency, West Papua Province is one of the oldest regencies in Papua. However, electricity problems are still a scourge that has not yet been resolved properly. So far, the mainstay of power plants in Fakfak Regency is the Diesel Power Plant (PLTD) which is highly dependent on the supply of Fuel Oil (BBM) and the reliability of the Diesel Engine. In fact, Fuel Oil (BBM) is one of the natural resources that cannot be renewed. For this reason, it is necessary to conduct a study on New Renewable Energy (EBT) that has the potential to be developed in Fakfak Regency. There are several rivers that have the potential to be developed as Micro Hydro Power Plants (PLTMH) in Fakfak Regency. The existence of Micro Hydro Power Plants (PLTMH) in Fakfak Regency is one of the real solutions to the power outages that still often occur in Fakfak Regency. Through this study, it is hoped that there will be a mapping of the energy potential that can be produced by several rivers in Fakfak Regency if used as Micro Hydro Power Plants (PLTMH). In addition, the potential of Micro Hydro Power Plant (PLTMH) will support the transition of power plants in Fakfak Regency. Another objective is to support environmental conservation efforts (nature and culture) and increase community participation in the management of existing natural resources, thus providing economic benefits to the local community. The research was conducted through surveys and direct measurements where the measurement results will be calculated to determine the potential river flow discharge and the potential for power generation. The results of the measurements and calculations obtained an average discharge of the Sakartemen River of 3.1m3/second which based on the measurement of the effective fall height (Heff) of the flow was obtained at 4 m. With these results, it can be estimated that the electrical power generated is 104,260 kW.

Bibliometric Analysis of Islamic Crowdfunding: A Literature Review of Its Journey

Background The potential of Islamic crowdfunding to encourage the development of Islamic fintech globally, even in countries with non-Muslim majority populations, needs to be examined in a literature study on this issue. More extensive research is needed regarding the factors that most reliably predict the success of Islamic crowdfunding, such as compliance with Islamic crowdfunding laws, sustainability, and the potential of Islamic finance. This article describes a comprehensive and systematic Literature Review (SLR) regarding papers published in the field of Islamic crowdfunding. This research aims to contribute to a better understanding of Islamic crowdfunding, provide useful information for practitioners, and stimulate further research in the field to increase the success of Islamic crowdfunding. Methods We conducted a review of selected papers to identify gaps and significant issues in Islamic crowdfunding, providing guidance for future researchers. This article review was based on 704 articles retrieved using the keyword “Islamic crowdfunding” from the Scopus database between 2013 and 2022. To minimize bias, we formulated 5 research questions to guide our analysis: RQ1: How do publication and citation rates vary annually? RQ2: How can we determine the most influential studies based on citation counts for each keyword? RQ3: What are the most common subject areas addressed in Islamic crowdfunding literature from 2013 to 2022? RQ4: What are the most frequently used keywords in Scopus documents? RQ5: How are Islamic values discussed in articles related to Islamic crowdfunding? Results The findings of this research demonstrate that Islamic crowdfunding, characterized by interdisciplinary scholarship, has emerged as an increasingly significant alternative for aiding society and the economy. It contributes to poverty alleviation and the development of specific sectors through channels such as crowdfunding for small and medium enterprises and social projects tailored to meet the diverse needs of Muslims. However, the challenge facing the future development of Sharia crowdfunding is that, despite its benefit of increasing community participation in projects aligned with religious values, it also carries the potential risk of investment losses and non-compliance with Sharia principles. Ways to address the current scarcity of Sharia fintech are also needed, ensuring its broader acceptance across all societal levels, and enhancing Muslims’ understanding of compliance with Islamic religious rules, particularly Fiqh law. Conclusion Urgently needed are specific fiqh regulatory guidelines to ensure that Sharia-compliant crowdfunding adheres to Islamic principles. Government support, particularly through legislation in countries where the majority of the population is Muslim, is crucial to enhance public participation and trust in Sharia crowdfunding.

Peningkatan Partisipasi Masyarakat Dalam Pembangunan Desa Lokasi Baru Seluma: Kontribusi Mahasiswa KKN Terhadap Pembangunan Desa

Village development is key to the success of national development. Village development has also been supported and established by the government through Law No. 6/2004 on Villages. There are two approaches to village development, namely village development and village development. In village development, community participation has a great influence.

INORGANIC WASTE BINS TO INCREASE COMMUNITY PARTICIPATION IN MANAGING HOUSEHOLD WASTE

The increase in population significantly impacts the growth of waste volume. In Indonesia, poor waste management exacerbates the issue of waste. In Yogyakarta, specifically, this problem has become critical due to the permanent closure of the integrated waste disposal site that has been relied upon. Despite various government programs being implemented, the active participation of the community as waste producers in addressing waste issues must be continuously enhanced. Independent waste management is one of the frequently proposed solutions. This program is supported by an overarching program called the waste bank. The existence of the waste bank must be accompanied by a high level of community participation. However, the lack of community access to the waste bank needs attention. Accordingly, this community service program will provide inorganic waste bins to increase community participation in managing inorganic waste while supporting the role of the waste bank. There are two main activities in this program: the design and production of inorganic waste bins, and the community education of household waste management. This community service collaborates with the waste bank located in Muja-Muju, Yogyakarta, targeting the campus area of the Faculty of Engineering at UST and the community on Miliran Street. This initiative also involves cooperation between the campus and the bank in institutional-scale waste management.
