According to the 2019 Household, Income and Labour Dynamics in Australia (HILDA) survey, Australia boasts a financial literacy rate of 64%, while Indonesia lags behind at only 38% (Australia Indonesia Youth Association, 2020). Recognizing this gap, this initiative aims to address the financial literacy needs of Indonesian migrant workers through targeted training programs. Drawing on data from the 2022 National Survey on Financial Literacy and Financial Inclusion (Survei Nasional Literasi dan Inklusi Keuangan/SNLIK), which showed an increase to 49.68% in Indonesia (Otoritas Jasa Keuangan, 2022), our community outreach initiative focuses on raising awareness and providing practical knowledge on entrepreneurship among migrant workers. By offering workshops on International Community Outreach with the theme "Raising Entrepreneurial Success Among Indonesian Migrant Workers," this activity aims to equip participants with the skills and inspiration to start their businesses upon returning to Indonesia. Through training sessions on budget management and entrepreneurship, we strive to empower migrant workers to achieve financial independence and contribute to their personal economic well-being. This initiative embodies our commitment to fostering self-sufficiency and economic resilience among Indonesian migrant workers.</em></p>2024-07-09T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2024 Titis Fatarina Mahfirah, Achmad Fauzi, Umi Widyastuti, Indah Muliasari, Nurdin Hidayat, Diah Armeliza, Nelson Lajuni, Khalisatuz Zahro, Ferrari, Eka Faradila Yasminhttps://journal.uii.ac.id/rla/article/view/33329Pelatihan Bisnis Merangkai Buket Bunga Sebagai Upaya Untuk Meningkatkan Pendapatan dan Kesejahteraan Rumah Tangga2024-05-20T06:12:26+00:00Neni Meidawati[email protected]Primanita Setyono[email protected]Yuni Nustini[email protected]Ataina Hudayati[email protected]Ayu Chairina Laksmi[email protected]Isti Rahayu[email protected]Marfuah[email protected]Noor Endah Cahyawati[email protected]Reni Yendrawati[email protected]Hendi Yogi Prabowo[email protected]<p>Every house has a yard that can be used to cultivate plants, especially flower plants. A variety of flower plants can live in Indonesia. Flower plants can be used as a source of income. Flower plants can be sold directly, used for family celebrations, wedding anniversaries, graduations and so on. The aim of the community service is to increase the role of housewives in order to increase their awareness toward natural resources around them, especially flowers which are very easy to cultivate. The method used is training given to the members of Pemberdayaan dan Kesejahteraan Keluarga (PKK), and inviting professional trainers in making flower bouquets. Hopefully the training through the community service program can provide skills for PKK members to improve the family economy through the use of flower cultivation.</p>2024-07-09T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2024 Neni Meidawati, Primanita Setyono, Yuni Nustini, Ataina Hudayati, Ayu Chairina Laksmi, Isti Rahayu, Marfuah, Noor Endah Cahyawati, Reni Yendrawati, Hendi Yogi Prabowohttps://journal.uii.ac.id/rla/article/view/33192Pelatihan Dasar Penunjang Artikel Melalui Optimalisasi Penggunaan Aplikasi Publish or Perish dan Mendeley2024-05-20T06:05:29+00:00Dewi Agustin Pratama Sari[email protected]Titis Fatarina Mahfirah[email protected]Indah Muliasari[email protected]Nurdin Hidayat[email protected]Diah Armeliza[email protected]Raihanisa Dara Dhinanty[email protected]Rachma Amalia Putri[email protected]<p>The basic research support skills training program is part of an effort to support the Tri Dharma of Higher Education, where lecturers play a role in sharing their knowledge with the community. This program is conducted because lecturers have diverse needs related to skills that support article writing. The goal of the program we offer is to provide solutions for training participants to be more skilled in creating articles more efficiently with the optimal use of the Publish or Perish and Mendeley applications. The Publish or Perish application is a tool that can help researchers understand the extent to which research on their subject has been conducted. Meanwhile, the Mendeley application can assist researchers in citing more easily. The research results show that participants' knowledge of both applications has increased, and participants will use both applications in their future research. Therefore, this community service activity will contribute to the improvement of scientific article writing.</p>2024-07-10T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2024 Dewi Agustin Pratama Sari, Titis Fatarina Mahfirah, Indah Muliasari, Nurdin Hidayat, Diah Armeliza, Raihanisa Dara Dhinanty, Rachma Amalia Putrihttps://journal.uii.ac.id/rla/article/view/33641Pelatihan Manajemen Usaha untuk Peningkatan Kapasitas Internal Pengusaha Perempuan2024-05-20T06:26:51+00:00Trias Setiawati[email protected]Budi Astuti[email protected]Suhartini[email protected]Sri Mulyati[email protected]Nurfauziah[email protected]<p><em>Aisyiyah is a social, religious and community organization that was founded in 1917.

Wage disparities and job availability in Indonesia drive migration to neighboring countries, but a lack of skills often results in serious problems like job mismatches, human trafficking, and illegal labor. The aim of this community services is to identify the initial needs for developing the Indonesian international migrant community in Malaysia, with synergy between Indonesian universities and international students in Malaysia. The study employs a qualitative approach through interviews and Focus Group Discussions (FGD) with migrant workers. Findings indicate that many migrants live in inadequate housing with limited access to clean water and sanitation. They also face significant barriers to accessing healthcare, education for their children, and legal protection. Recommendations include improving housing conditions, enhancing healthcare access, providing formal education for migrant children, ensuring legal protection, and promoting economic empowerment through entrepreneurship and financial management training. Effective development and improved welfare for migrants require collaboration between the government, NGOs, universities, and local communities.</em></p>2024-08-08T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2024 Suhada Suhada, Fahmy Akbar Idries, Rifqi Syarif Nasrulloh, Novi Diah Wulandarihttps://journal.uii.ac.id/rla/article/view/35057Literasi Keuangan: Pelatihan Penggunaan Aplikasi Akuntansi Berbasis Android dalam Menyusun Laporan Keuangan2024-07-15T01:38:41+00:00Fajar Satriya Segarawasesa[email protected]<p><em>This activity aims to overcome the problems faced by MSME business actors at the Kemantren Kraton Yogyakarta. Every MSME business player has the same problem, namely a lack of understanding of financial literacy, especially in preparing MSME financial reports and financial management. This has the impact of not separating personal financial records from their business. As a result, businesspeople have difficulty assessing whether their business results are making a profit or a loss. To overcome this problem, a financial literacy program was formed in the form of training on the use of Android-based accounting applications in preparing financial reports. This program was selected due to its user-friendly interface and seamless compatibility with smartphones, making it easy to download and use. The approach to carrying out tasks include providing instruction and support for using the program. The outcomes of this endeavor exhibited a favorable reaction from the individuals involved. Nevertheless, according to the assessment findings, it is important to consistently do this activity, taking into account the time constraints for mentoring. Certain participants still need more coaching.</em></p>2024-08-13T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2024 Fajar Satriya Segarawasesa
