“…This benefited the community, especially the unemployed, as new bag-making job opportunities were created. Besides providing the capacity for the community to cope with environmental problems, the method can also reduce the poverty levels associated with the lack of available jobs [ 96 ]. The communities were also provided with waste management expertise and skills, ranging from identifying different forms of waste-to-waste separation to conditioning and recycling [ 39 ].…”

Water hyacinth (WH) is notorious for causing severe environmental degradation and being an economic burden to manage. However, it offers substantial prospects if exploited, especially by rural communities. High temperatures, eutrophic conditions and other environmental factors promote the proliferation of the plant in regions where it has been introduced. Regarded as among the world’s worst invasive weeds, WH is nearly impossible to control and eradicate without an integrated approach and community participation. The effectiveness of control methods varies, yet sustained community involvement determines the long-term success of these methods. Reproducing rapidly, WH has the resource capacity to support a unique microeconomic ecosystem, incentivising WH control by generating sustainable income. The WH ecology, the socioeconomic impacts of its invasion and its various applications are reviewed, and revenue generation and cost-saving options are highlighted. A circular microeconomic model is proposed by integrating WH valorisation into the general limitations of a rural community. Empowering locals with opportunities and enticing them with potential economic gains can be a nudge towards a pro-environment behavioural change in managing WH. This would aid in upgrading local livelihoods and could foster resilience within the community in tackling both environmental problems and economic setbacks through the management of WH invasions.

The waste problem in the Karang Mumus River cannot be said to be resolved. This is caused by several factors, namely: there are still many people who live on the banks of the Karang Mumus River and carry out all their daily activities, causing the river's function to decline and there are also still people who throw rubbish out of place. Therefore, this service research aims to contribute to carrying out waste collection activities. The approach method used is by conducting observations and interviews with informants about the origins of the community and the form of environmental management carried out on the Karang Mumus River. At the end of the activity, monitoring and evaluation was carried out to increase public awareness. The results of this service activity provide an example to the community around the Karang Mumus River and the entire community to get used to living a healthy life by paying attention to the surrounding environment, namely by throwing rubbish in its place, using goods and implementing them. environmentally friendly activities. Community Service Activities for the Bachelor of Public Administration Study Program, Faculty of Social and Political Sciences, Mulawarman University, together with the community of the Movement to Pick Up a Piece of Garbage from the Karang Mumus River, are expected to increase awareness of students and alumni as part of the academic community and around the Karang Mumus River community.
