MENINGKATKAN KESADARAN MASYARAKAT NELAYAN KELURAHAN DOMPAK MELALUI SOSIALISASI TENTANG PENTINGNYA MEMPEROLEH PELAYANAN DASAR PENDIDIKAN

Abstract

In the opening of the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia set forth 4 state objectives, one of which is to develop the life of the nation. But until now access to basic education services is still not fully felt by all Indonesian people. This is the case in Dompak kelurahan, where the majority of the population lives as fishermen, where there is still a high dropout rate, which can be seen from the average number of people with primary school education that is still high compared to the others. This is due to the lack of public knowledge about the importance of education for them. So it is necessary to hold community service activities in the form of socialization in order to increase community knowledge so that the dropout rate does not increase. With the hope that the community will be more motivated to keep their children in school and support them to stay in school. As for the results of community service carried out on July 25, 2019 it was found that fishing communities were motivated to continue to increase their knowledge about the education services provided by the government not only for their children but also for themselves, this was marked by their hopes to the existence of community learning groups in their place so that people who are elderly can participate in learning, especially reading and writing.
