Learning and community engagement in schools were crucial to promoting sustainability and environmental awareness. A mini-review was conducted to explore the potential of student-led efforts to divert organic waste, specifically fallen dry leaves. Using the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB), we examined how environmental awareness impacted pro-environmental behavior. Students contributed to sustainable waste management by becoming aware of environmental issues and taking action. Educating students about environmental issues played a crucial role in cultivating environmental awareness. By integrating environmental concepts into the curriculum and organizing extracurricular activities, schools prepared students to address environmental challenges. Even after specific programs such as Adiwiyata were concluded, challenges remained in sustaining environmental initiatives. Schools needed to prioritize environmental education, engage students in active participation, and create an environment that fostered a sustainable culture to ensure long-term impact. Schools made a real difference to the environment by managing organic waste and promoting environmental awareness.</p> 2025-06-28T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2025 Environmental Research and Planetary Health https://tecnoscientifica.com/journal/erph/article/view/663 Health Worker Performance and Prevalence of Diarrhoea: A Cross-Sectional Study 2025-07-02T02:54:21+00:00 Sudirman Sudirman sudirmandirman549@gmail.com Saiful Ambodale ambodalesaiful@gmail.com Mutmainah Mutmainah buzzcashzine@gmail.com Niluh Desy Purnamasari desfitafc@gmail.com Desak Eka Susianawati desak.susianawati@gmail.com Fitri Arni fitrirasyidi@gmail.com <p>Diarrhea has been one of the major health issues, particularly among children, and the performance of healthcare workers in implementing effective diarrhea programs has been crucial for its prevention and treatment. The success of diarrhea control may be influenced by the performance of healthcare workers; however, implementation has remained suboptimal in some areas, including the Marawola Community Health Center, which has experienced fluctuating diarrhea incidence rates. The objective of this study was to analyze the influence of healthcare workers' performance in implementing diarrhea programs on the prevalence of diarrhea cases among children. This study employed quantitative design with a cross-sectional approach, conducted in the service area of the Marawola Health Center in 2024. The study sample consisted of 77 respondents selected using stratified random sampling. Data was collected through questionnaires, and analysis was performed using logistic regression. The results of the logistic regression analysis indicated that the performance of healthcare workers in implementing the diarrhea program significantly affected the incidence of diarrhea in children (<em>p</em> = 0.017), although the constant value was not statistically significant (<em>p</em> = 0.163). This suggests that other factors need to be considered in addition to healthcare worker performance when optimizing the diarrhea program for children. In conclusion, the performance of healthcare workers needs to be improved in the implementation of diarrhea programs for children. Strategies such as training, supervision, the use of technology, and community involvement can be implemented. Further research is needed to explore other factors influencing the effectiveness of these programs.</p> 2025-07-26T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2025 Environmental Research and Planetary Health
