Transformasi Perilaku Hidup Bersih dan Sehat melalui Pembinaan Partisipatif untuk Mewujudkan Generasi Peduli dan Edukatif di MI Nurul Ulum II Pamekasan

Abstract

Health and environmental cleanliness play a crucial role in fostering healthy habits and character development from an early age. However, awareness and application of Clean and Healthy Living Behavior at MI Nurul Ulum II remain relatively low. This community service program aims to cultivate clean and healthy living behaviors as an effort to create a caring and educative young generation. The program was conducted over two months at MI Nurul Ulum II, Teja Barat, Pamekasan, involving 12 teachers and 99 students. The implementation consisted of three main stages: PHBS socialization for teachers, interactive education for students through demonstrations and educational games, and assistance in implementing school-level hygiene practices. Data were collected through observations and questionnaires to measure students’ understanding and attitudes toward PHBS. The results showed an increase in teachers’ understanding by 56.73% and students’ understanding by 90.58%. Observations also indicated positive behavioral changes, such as handwashing before meals, proper waste disposal and sorting, and maintaining classroom cleanliness. The program significantly enhanced students’ knowledge, attitudes, and practices related to PHBS and strengthened teachers’ roles in fostering healthy habits at school. Therefore, this activity contributes to creating a healthy school environment that supports the development of a caring and educative generation.
