| Summary: | This community service program aims to empower women in Gunungmanik Village through training in making traditional veterinary medicine, which is in line with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) on gender equality (SDG 5), economic growth (SDG 8), and sustainable agriculture (SDG 2). By utilizing locally available spices such as cloves, cardamom, and ginger, the program improved women's skills in entrepreneurship, livestock health management, and increased income. A mixed-method evaluation (pre-test/post-test, survey, interviews) involving 15 participants showed results: Economic Impact: Participants' income increased by 40-70%, with additional income of IDR 700,000- 1,500,000/month (USD 43.75-93.75) from the sale of traditional veterinary medicines. Knowledge Improvement: N-gain analysis showed moderate to high learning gains (mean score: 0.64).Health & Sustainability: Reduced reliance on synthetic antibiotics by 30–50%, promoting eco-friendly livestock practices. Social Empowerment: 80% of participants reported heightened entrepreneurial confidence, while 90% gained new skills. In conclusion, this initiative not only empowers women economically but also supports SDG-driven rural development, offering a blueprint for similar programs in Indonesia and beyond. Future efforts should focus on policy integration, public-private partnerships, and expanded training to ensure long-term impact. |
