Community Empowerment is a multidisciplinary, peer-reviewed, open-access journal dedicated to disseminating and communicating the successes of community development programs to academicians, society, and industry. Compared to other scientific journals in the same subject area, Community Empowerment leads in publishing reports and documentation on the downstreaming of expertise and/or research results to address community issues.
This leading position aligns with our mission to provide information on community development, from scientific foundations to tangible prosperity, particularly in support of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) programs. This contribution is driven by Journal's nature as a publication of an Indonesian educational institution, given that the Indonesian government is among the few worldwide that mandates academicians to publish their community development outcomes.

I declare that if generative AI or AI-assisted technologies (e.g., ChatGPT, Grammarly, etc.) were used in the writing process, they were only applied to improve language clarity or readability, and not to generate, interpret, or alter scientific content. The use of such tools was conducted under human oversight and the authors take full responsibility for the content of the manuscript.
I confirm that no generative AI or AI-assisted technologies were used to create, modify, or manipulate figures, images, or artwork, except where such use is explicitly part of the research methodology and has been clearly described in the methods section.
