Abstract

SDN 79 Mambue, located in Mambue Hamlet, Nisombalia Village, Marusu District, Maros Regency, was established on December 31, 1980. The school faces the issue of not having handwashing facilities (washbasins) on its premises. To address this problem, the installation of washbasins in the school was carried out. The targets and expected outcomes of this IbM (Science and Technology for the Community) implementation are: (a) Fulfilling the need for a healthy lifestyle by utilizing washbasins for regular handwashing. (b) Instilling the habit of maintaining personal hygiene from an early age. (c) Preventing various diseases through regular handwashing, such as respiratory infections, diarrhea, and parasitic worm infections among students. To resolve this issue, the plan involved installing several washbasins in front of the classrooms. This initiative aims to meet the need for a healthy lifestyle by promoting regular handwashing, encouraging personal hygiene from an early age, and preventing diseases like respiratory infections, diarrhea, and parasitic worm infections. Based on the activities carried out, the identified problems have been effectively addressed as outlined in this report, primarily through the installation of handwashing facilities (washbasins) and the successful transfer of scientific and technological knowledge, which has provided direct benefits to SDN 79 Mambue in Nisombalia Village.
