ABSTRACT

Legal awareness among rural communities remains a critical issue in legal development in Indonesia, particularly in preventing legal violations driven by low legal literacy. This community service activity aims to enhance the public’s legal understanding through the “Jaksa Jaga Desa” program as a preventive measure against legal violations in rural areas. The program was held at the Anggana Subdistrict Public Service Office and attended by 21 participants, comprising subdistrict representatives and local villagers. The activity employed methods such as outreach, interactive discussions, case studies, and legal problem-solving simulations. The results of the activity showed that the community gained a better understanding of basic legal concepts, various forms of legal violations in the village, as well as mechanisms for reporting and resolving disputes through legal channels. The participants’ enthusiasm during the discussions and Q&A sessions demonstrated the high demand among the community for legal education that is easy to understand and closely aligned with the issues they face in their daily lives. This activity contributed to strengthening the legal culture of the village community and supported the implementation of the Attorney General’s Office of the Republic of Indonesia’s program to bring legal services closer to the community.
