Pemanfaatan Lahan Kosong Untuk Pembuatan Apotek Hidup Di Desa Kesik Lombok Timur

Abstract

Living Pharmacy is an environmentally friendly program that aims to promote the use of family medicinal herbs (TOGA) as a natural way to sustain health. This program was carried out as part of the Village Development Real Work Lecture (KKN) activities by Pharmacy Study Program Students from Hamzanwadi University in Kesik Village, Masbagik District, East Lombok Regency, West Nusa Tenggara. The primary goal of this program is to educate the public about the benefits of medicinal plants, growing techniques, and easy processing procedures for traditional medicine. The strategy employed is a demonstration, which can result in a large increase in knowledge. The program's outcomes reveal an improvement in public understanding of the relevance of TOGA, as seen by residents' enthusiasm for establishing and sustaining a living pharmacy. Aside from that, this programme has a good influence on increasing community independence in preventative and promotional health actions.
