Strengthening the Nagari Koto Tangah Islamic Study Group in Tilkam Subdistrict, Agama Regency, Through Training on Funeral Arrangements
The handling of the deceased is one of the obligatory acts of worship classified as a fardhu kifayah. Not all Muslims possess the skills to wash, shroud, and perform the funeral prayer for the deceased; typically, these duties are entrusted to those who are experts and accustomed to performing them. However, it is also important for every Muslim to know and understand these religious laws, at least for the purpose of handling the funeral of close relatives. To provide insight to those who have not yet mastered this knowledge, a training session was conducted involving the Majelis Taklim in Kanagarian Koto Tangah, Tilatang Kamang Subdistrict, Agam Regency. This was done in anticipation of a shortage of funeral organizers in the area. Several studies indicate that community service programs based on Majelis Taklim, focusing on funeral arrangements, remain limited. This initiative aims to enrich existing efforts while addressing a different subject area. The methodology employs a Participatory Action Research approach, utilizing lectures and demonstrations. In this community service project, two major patterns were identified: the importance of strengthening literacy and the need for demonstrations aimed at fostering habitual practices in a religious activity that is often performed on an ad hoc basis. The training on funeral arrangements for the Majelis Taklim in Koto Tangah Village has resulted in a task force that is on standby at all times to provide services to families experiencing bereavement

Strengthening Youth Capacity in Nagari Situmbuk through Interactive English Teaching, Digital Marketing, and Cinematography for Creative Village Promotion
This community service program was conducted in Nagari Situmbuk, Tanah Datar Regency, an area with strong potential in community-based education, village tourism, and UMKM development. However, these potentials had not been fully realized due to limited youth capacity to conduct interactive English learning activities and the continued conventional use of digital media for tourism and UMKM promotion. This program aimed to strengthen youth capacity through integrated training in interactive English teaching, digital marketing, and basic cinematography to promote creative villages. The program employed a participatory approach involving the COIV youth community, UMKM actors, and village stakeholders. Its implementation consisted of four main stages: needs analysis, training workshops, field mentoring, and participatory evaluation. The program involved 20 participants, consisting of youths and UMKM actors. The results show that participants improved their capacity to conduct communicative and contextual English-learning activities, gained practical understanding of social-media-based promotion for local products, and produced simple promotional videos highlighting the cultural and natural potential of Nagari Situmbuk. The program also encouraged the emergence of local youth cadres capable of sustaining English-learning initiatives and supporting village promotion efforts. These findings suggest that integrating pedagogical, digital, and creative media training can serve as a practical model for strengthening youth-led village empowerment.

Ecopedagogical Capacity Building to Strengthen the Environmentally Caring Character of Youth in Mendalo Indah Village Through Environment Literacy Classes
Environmental problems, including waste, are a continuing issue facing the community. The community service activity was motivated by the fact that many residents still litter, visible trash on the streets, and the lack of trash disposal sites on village streets. The community service activity aims to increase the understanding and skills of youth from the Karang Taruna of Mendalo Indah Village in preserving the environment by providing capacity-building training through environmental literacy classes and encouraging concrete actions to protect the environment. The activity was carried out through planning, implementation, and evaluation stages. The results of the community service were the implementation of ecopedagogical capacity-building activities through environmental literacy classes and concrete actions to clean the environment. The training results from the pre-test and post-test showed that 80% of participants understood the religious, socio-cultural, and social environments. In addition, the concrete action activity was attended by youth from Mendalo Indah Village with a cleaning point at the Valencia Housing Complex. The objectives of this activity are to develop and strengthen the environmental care character of youth from Mendalo Indah Village, so that in the future, there will be many programs to maintain the village environment free from waste.
