Lutfi Alhazami with the program “From Waste to Value: Compost-Making Training Program to Increase Household Income in Meruya Utara.”
In his presentation, he explained that the program aims to utilize household organic waste into high-quality compost with economic value. Through a series of trainings, the residents of Meruya Utara were not only taught composting techniques but also marketing strategies to increase household income. The program is expected to foster community self-reliance while supporting environmental sustainability efforts.

Irma Rahmawati with the program “Application-Based English Pronunciation Training for Youth in the Democare Community, Meruya Utara.”
Irma presented that the program was designed to improve English pronunciation skills among youth through technology-based applications. Using interactive methods and hands-on practice, the program not only strengthens their communication skills but also equips them with relevant language competencies to face the challenges of globalization and job market competition.

Through this activity, LRPM UNDIRA reaffirms its commitment to continuously enhancing the quality and impact of its community service programs, thereby contributing tangible benefits to the development of society and the surrounding environment.

It is expected that the results of this Monev will not only serve as an administrative evaluation but also as a means of reflection for lecturers and PkM implementation teams to keep innovating, strengthen synergy with communities, and maximize sustainable positive impacts within the campus environment and beyond.
