Indonesian Migrant Workers (PMI) make a significant contribution to the national economy through the remittances they send, making their role highly strategic for national development. However, many PMIs still face limitations in personal financial management and lack entrepreneurial skills upon returning to Indonesia. In response to these challenges, this international community service program was designed to empower PMIs in Malaysia through community-based entrepreneurship training. The program was a collaboration between Universitas Negeri Yogyakarta, Sanggar Bimbingan Pantai Dalam Kuala Lumpur, and Sunway University. The training was conducted in three stages: two online sessions on June 29 and August 6, 2024, and one offline session on September 18, 2024, involving 30 participants. The materials covered financial literacy, digital marketing, strengthening of growth mindset, and entrepreneurial spirit development. The program evaluation showed a significant improvement in participants’ ability to manage personal finances, utilize digital media for business promotion, and develop an adaptive entrepreneurial mindset. This program is expected to serve as an effective model for PMI empowerment and be replicated in other destination countries.

The prevalence of stunting in Bakalaeng Village, Sangihe Islands Regency, reached 68,92% among at-risk families, despite the area's abundant fishery potential. The main issue lies in the low diversification of fish processing, leading to minimal consumption of fish as a protein source. This community service program aimed to empower the Family Welfare Empowerment organization through capacity building in the diversification of fishery products, as an effort to help reduce stunting and improve family economies. The implementation method consisted of four stages: (1) participatory problem identification; (2) program presentation and negotiation; (3) facilitation and mentoring using a problem-based learning approach; and (4) evaluation and monitoring. The results showed a significant increase in the knowledge and skills of the Family Welfare Empowerment organization. The partners have been able to produce innovative processed products such as kaki naga (drum stick) and fish balls, and have shown commitment to developing micro-enterprises. The program successfully created a dual impact: improved family nutritional intake and potential income increase. The local resource-based empowerment approach is effective in addressing stunting and can be a model for other coastal areas.
