Abstract

The Community Service Program (KKN) is a concrete manifestation of the implementation of the Tridharma of Higher Education which aims to empower the community through the application of science and technology. This community service was carried out in Koripan Village, Matesih District, Karanganyar Regency, with a focus on two main aspects, namely physical (infrastructure) and non-physical (socio-educational). The physical programs implemented include the provision of trash bins, planting tree seedlings, assisting the production of UMKM mushroom blantik, and the provision of Friday blessings. Meanwhile, the non-physical programs implemented include handicraft training, the creation of a site plan (site plan) for apple orchard tourism, joint healthy exercise, holding a learning house, socialization and creation of fermented livestock feed, socialization about the influence of gadgets at SD N 1 Koripan, the creation of a Koripan Village profile video, a community competition in commemorating the Indonesian Independence Day. The implementation of this community service program adopts a holistic approach through the integration of several data collection techniques and information dissemination. Initial data was collected through a field survey aimed at identifying objective conditions and resource potential. Furthermore, socialization was held to transfer knowledge and skills to the target audience. The program's communication and branding were conducted extensively through social media to reach a wider audience, and concluded with interviews with key informants for formative evaluation and program reflection. The implementation of the Community Service Program (KKN) as a form of community service in Koripan Village received a positive response and support from the Koripan community. This KKN activity has strengthened the relationship between higher education institutions and village government institutions, particularly the Koripan community.
