INTRODUCTION
Proper management of organic waste is still a serious problem, both in cities and villages.
The inefficiency of organic waste processing causes greenhouse gas emissions, especially methane that are released from the waste decay process in landfills.
Indonesia itself, organic waste reaches 60% of the total national waste and most of it has not been managed properly, causing problems such as odors, stagnant leachate, and high waste transportation costs.
In the context of climate change, community-based organic waste management is a mitigation strategy recommended by several government studies and programs.
The Climate Village Program is one of the examples given to the community to carry out environmental action to be a good example of Bojong Nangka Village, one of the villages that has received guidance from this program and has shown a strong commitment and cooperation in better organic waste management.
Under the framework of this program, processing waste into compost and eco-enzymes https://publikasi.

php/jam Jurnal Abdi Masyarakat (JAM) Volume 11 Nomor 1 | September 2025 p-ISSN: 2460-352X e-ISSN: 2686-5623 is a very effective alternative because in addition to reducing the volume of waste, organic waste management at the household level produces more sustainable products that can be reused by the population.
Compost is a major product that serves as an organic fertilizer that can restore nutrients to the land and growing soil, while ecoenzymes play a powerful role as eco-friendly products such as cleaning liquids, odor cleaners, and plant liquid fertilizers.
Eco-friendly products produced from organic waste also act as a catalyst for increasing public awareness about the importance of waste management in their respective task rooms.
Thus, this article attempts to survey the education, training and assistance of organic waste processing in Bojong Nangka Village and analyze its impact on increasing knowledge, participation and environmental mitigation within the framework of the Climate Village Program.

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
Pengelolaan sampah organik telah menjadi topik penting dalam berbagai studi lingkungan karena berkaitan langsung dengan upaya mitigasi perubahan iklim dan keberlanjutan lingkungan.
Sampah organik, yang terdiri dari sisa-sisa makanan, daundaun, dan material organik lainnya, jika tidak dikelola dengan baik dapat menyebabkan peningkatan emisi gas rumah kaca seperti metana (CH.
dan karbondioksida (CO.
yang berasal dari dekomposisi anaerob di tempat pembuangan akhir (TPA).
Oleh karena itu, pengolahan sampah organik melalui metode seperti komposting dan pembuatan eco-enzyme merupakan langkah signifikan dalam mengurangi emisi dan beban lingkungan dari sampah organik.
Kompos: Proses Dekomposisi dan Manfaat Lingkungan Compost is the result of the process of decomposition of organic matter by microorganisms, such as bacteria, fungi, and actinomyces, under controlled conditions.
This process is known as composting, which is basically a form of aerobic decomposition, in which oxygen plays an important role in the sustainability of the metabolism of microorganisms responsible for decomposing organic matter into humus or compost.
The decomposition of this organic matter occurs gradually, through thermophilic and mesophilic processes, which involve an increase in the internal temperature of the organic matter deposit due to the activity of microorganisms, before finally returning to the ambient temperature.
The literature shows that compost has tremendous benefits for the environment and According to research by Haug .
, compost is able to improve soil quality through increasing humus content and soil structure.
Compost improves soil aeration and water retention capacity, making it very beneficial to increase agricultural yields In addition, the use of compost also reduces reliance on synthetic chemical fertilizers which often leads to long-term degradation of soil quality.

php/jam Jurnal Abdi Masyarakat (JAM) Volume 11 Nomor 1 | September 2025 p-ISSN: 2460-352X e-ISSN: 2686-5623 Another study conducted by Bernal et al.
showed that compost also plays a role in reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
Composting organic matter diverts the anaerobic decomposition process that usually occurs in landfills, which produces methane gas as a byproduct.
Methane is a more potent greenhouse gas than CO2, so reducing methane through direct composting helps reduce the negative impact on climate change.
Therefore, the composting method plays a dual role: as an efficient organic waste management and as a climate mitigation method.
Eco-Enzyme: Sustainable Innovation in the Utilization of Organic Waste In addition to compost, eco-enzymes are an increasingly popular alternative to organic waste processing.
Eco-enzymes are solutions produced from the fermentation of organic waste, especially fruit and vegetable peels, in a mixture of water and brown sugar over a period of time, usually about three months.
This process involves the activity of microorganisms that ferment the organic matter, turning it into a liquid rich in enzymes, organic acids, and various other active substances that benefit the environment.
According to research by Heng et al.
, eco-enzymes have a wide range of practical uses, including as natural fertilizers, household cleaners, odor reductions, and even as anti-fungal or anti-bacterial agents.
Eco-enzymes have also been shown to be able to neutralize harmful chemical compounds in the environment.
For example, in wastewater treatment, eco-enzymes can be used to reduce the content of ammonia and nitrates, which are major pollutants in industrial wastewater.
The benefits of eco-enzymes are not only limited to their function as environmentally friendly household products.
Research has also shown that the process of making ecoenzymes can help reduce the amount of organic waste that ends up in landfills.
This reduces the pressure on urban waste management systems that are often overwhelmed by the amount of waste generated every day.
Diverting organic waste to be used as ecoenzymes directly reduces the volume of waste that must be handled by landfills, while reducing methane gas emissions resulting from anaerobic organic waste decay in The Potential of Organic Waste Management in the Context of Climate Villages Both compost and eco-enzymes have great potential in supporting the Climate Village program, especially at the village level or small communities such as Bojong Nangka Village.
The Climate Village is a government program that aims to increase community participation in facing climate change challenges through community-based adaptation and mitigation actions.
One of the concrete steps that can be taken in this context is the management of organic waste locally.
The use of simple technologies such as composting and the manufacture of ecoenzymes can have a great impact on reducing greenhouse gas emissions, while creating products that are economically and ecologically beneficial to the local community.
Compost can be used to improve soil in agricultural land or yards, while eco-enzymes can be used for various household purposes and environmental management.
Existing studies, such as those conducted by Lim et al.
, show that the implementation of a community-based organic waste management system is able to reduce up to 50% of the volume of waste that enters landfills, while increasing public awareness of the importance of environmental sustainability.
Therefore, the implementation of integrated organic waste management through compost and eco- https://publikasi.

CONCLUSION
The training program organized by Bojong Nangka Village has helped increase literacy, practical skills, and community participation in the use of organic waste, especially household waste into compost and eco-enzymes.
In addition to reducing the volume of waste that has the potential to go to landfills, the main product of this waste management activity can also be purchased by local residents as ecological products whose selling price is cheaper than similar products.
Therefore, this program is included in the environmental mitigation and adaptation goals under the Climate Village Program.
The implementation of this program shows that people are starting to be aware and actively participate in utilizing their household waste.
The compost produced supports local agriculture by acting as organic fertilizer, while eco-friendly enzymes can be used as natural cleaners and liquid fertilizers.
Both products help reduce the use of toxic chemicals and improve soil fertility.
This organic household waste management training is expected to produce several positive outcomes, both for the participants and for the environment.
Some of these include significantly increased knowledge, practical skills gained, increased environmental awareness, real action in the community, eco-friendly products, and networking and SUGGESTION Application at Home and Community is learning that must be done directly by So that participants are asked to immediately apply the knowledge gained to start making compost and eco-enzymes in each participant's home.
And not only that, of course participants can also share this knowledge with their families and neighbors and the community around the participants.
Advanced Training by holding advanced training or mentoring sessions can deepen participants' knowledge about advanced organic waste management techniques.
It can even be with case studies or field visits to communities or institutions that have been successful in implementing good waste Collaboration with Other Parties As the name implies, participants should collaborate with other parties such as schools, government institutions or non-profit institutions that first run organic waste management programs.
This aims to accelerate and intensify the dissemination of information and good practices in the community.
The Environmental Awareness Campaign, which we aim to provide, participants should be the initiators in expanding environmental awareness in the environment.
Therefore, the committee advised participants to create campaigns in the form of semiar or workshops or other social services that are specifically to show the importance of organic waste management and its practices.
Monitoring and Evaluation are very important for participants regarding this issue.
The committee suggested monitoring and evaluation of the implementation of organic waste management in the participants' households.
This aims to make it easier to find difficult points and of course solutions and observe how much positive impact the training provided.
This is the author's suggestion to optimize the results of this training to have an even greater impact.
