Jatinangor, 30 August 2025 – The Faculty of Cultural Sciences (FIB) at Padjadjaran University remains committed to improving community welfare through its Community Service Programme (PPM). This programme covers Sumedang Regency, including the sub-districts of Jatinangor, South Sumedang, Rancakalong, and Cimanggung.
These efforts to improve community welfare are motivated by various issues identified in the field, such as the underutilisation of economic potential and the lack of marketing strategies for products by economic actors.
By involving FIB Unpad lecturers, the FIB PPM programme focuses on four village development models, namely Socio-Economic Development, Local Culture-Based Tourism Villages, Pesantren-Based Socio-Economic Village Development, and Cultural Literacy Villages.
Through a total of 32 PPM programmes and funds amounting to Rp165,894,000, it is hoped that the villages assisted by FIB Unpad can achieve maximum independence and prosperity through continuous and integrated efforts.
