Strengthening Village Information Services through Website Digitalization and Capacity Building in Tanjung Gelam Village
Abstract
Tanjung Gelam Village has various types of information related to village profiles, government administration, community activities, local potential, and public information that need to be delivered in an accessible and organized manner. However, the absence of an integrated digital information medium limited the accessibility and systematic dissemination of village information. This community service activity, conducted through the Community Service Program (Kuliah Kerja Nyata/KKN), aimed to strengthen village information services through website digitalization while improving the capacity of village officials and community members to utilize digital information media. The activity was implemented through several stages, including observation and identification of partner needs, coordination with village officials, information collection and validation, website development and implementation, socialization, training, mentoring, and evaluation. The main output was a village profile website containing information on the village profile, government structure, news, community activities, local potential, documentation, and contact information. The website was developed using React and JavaScript, with Firebase supporting data management. The implementation results showed that the nine main website features tested functioned successfully, resulting in a 100% technical functionality rate. In addition to producing the digital information platform, the activity provided socialization, practical training, and mentoring for village officials and community members in utilizing the website and accessing village information. The activity therefore contributed not only to the availability of an integrated digital information medium but also to the transfer of knowledge and strengthening of the community partner's capacity to utilize digital technology for village information dissemination. The sustainability of the program depends on the continued involvement of the village government in managing and periodically updating the information provided through the website.
