In Indonesia, sites for TPA (landfills) as final waste dumping are still in limited supply. Meanwhile, the amount of recycled waste is still low due to the lack of awareness about how to sort household waste. The citizens' participation activity for this study aimed to increase awareness about how to sort household waste by involving the stakeholders. The method used for the citizens participation activity was obtained through four stages, including advocacy, counseling for garbage collectors, counseling for households, and monitoring the waste sorting behavior in households. The obtained results are based on a 100% attendance at counseling by both the stakeholders and the garbage collectors. There is a significance difference in the level of understanding found in households before and after the counseling. According to the results of the study, as many as 44.2% of the households started sorting their waste based on monitoring.

Fertile women farmers are risky of suffering decrease of cholinesterase activity due to pesticide exposure. This study aimed to analyze relation between pesticide exposure and the exposure agent to cholinesterase activity of fertile women workers at Kedunguter Village. This study used cross-sectional design on 94 fertile women farmers in 2015. Data was collected by observation, interview and cholinesterase test. Data analysis used chi-square test and analysis results showed a significant relation between pesticide types, working time, the use of gloves, hand-washing behavior to cholinesterase activity of fertile women farmers. Analysis results of this study showed that variable working time had the highest odds ratio (OR) score (OR = 14.072), so the variable working time is the most dominant variable in influencing cholinesterase enzyme. This study suggests that fertile women farmers should work not more than six hours per day.Keywords: Behavior, cholinesterase enzyme, pesticide exposure Abstrak Petani perempuan usia subur berisiko mengalami penurunan aktivitas kolinesterase akibat pajanan pestisida. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis hubungan antara pajanan pestisida dan perilaku pemajan terhadap aktivitas kolinesterase petani perempuan usia subur di Desa Kedunguter. Penelitian ini menggunakan desain potong lintang pada 94 petani perempuan usia subur tahun 2015. Pengumpulan data dilakukan secara observasi, wawancara, dan uji kolinesterase. Analisis data menggunakan uji kai kuadrat dan hasil analisis menunjukkan hubungan signifikan antara jenis pestisida, waktu kerja, penggunaan sarung tangan, perilaku mencuci tangan terhadap aktivitas kolinesterase petani perempuan usia subur. Hasil analisis pada penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa variabel waktu kerja memiliki nilai odds ratio (OR) tertinggi, yaitu OR = 14,072 sehingga waktu kerja merupakan variabel paling dominan dalam memengaruhi enzim ko-

Demam Berdarah Dengue (DBD) merupakan penyakit yang masih menjadi permasalahan global, karena tingkat insiden mengalami peningkatan 30 kali lipat selama 50 tahun terakhir. Partisipasi masyarakat amat dibutuhkan dalam keberlangsungan upaya pengendalian demam berdarah. Kesadaran diri kunci utama dalam berpartisipasi dipengaruhi faktor-faktor seperti pengetahuan, sikap dan perilaku. Penelitian ini menggunakan sistematika review untuk melihat upaya pencegahan demam berdarah berdasarkan partisipasi masyarakat. Strategi pencarian menggunakan 3 electronic database, EBSCO, Proquest dan Google Scholar dan mengikuti Protokol PRISMA (Preffered Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta Analyses), didapatkan sebanyak 17 artikel yang sesuai dengan kriteria inklusi dan ekslusi. Hasil tinjauan terdapat 4 variabel utama yang digunakan yaitu Sosiodemografi, Knowledge, Attitude dan Practice. Variabel sosiodemografi (umur dan pendidikan) mempunyai nilai signifikan pada 42,8% artikel, variabel pengetahuan cara pendegahan demam berdarah signifikan pada 23,1% artikel, variabel sikap terhadap tempat perindukan nyamuk dan upaya pengendalian vektor sebesar 53,8% artikel, dan variabel perilaku yang mempunyai signifikansi dengan prosentase tertinggi adalah perilaku yang dihubungkan dengan indeks entomologi sebesar 53,8% artikel. Tingkat pendidikan, pengetahuan, dan sikap positif terhadap upaya pencegahan demam berdarah belum tentu memberikan hasil signifikan terhadap perilaku. Dengan demikian peningkatan kesadaran tentang risiko, motivasi dan komunikasi diperlukan untuk mengubah perilaku

Proper habits formed since childhood represent the ideal head start to help keep the environment clean, although this is not a standalone vital factor for a person to dislike littering behavior. The data used in this study were derived from the compilation of primary data. This paper concerns littering behavior of children and presents a survey conducted with 2349 individuals who completed a survey with relevant items and demographic information. The respondents were sampled with a purposive random sampling survey method. Then, by means of logistic regression, we found that low-income households need to be supported by disposal facilities and formal education, while high-income households need to be supported by awareness-raising on the issue. Moreover, it was found that in terms of environmental protection during the pre-school period, self-initiative and parental assistance were not sufficient to drive individual responses on littering behavior. However, there is the need to analyze, in further research, religious education and other extrinsic and intrinsic motivations about environmental care and waste management for children.
