Focus and Scope

Communautaire: Journal of Community Service is an international, peer-reviewed journal published by Al-Qalam Institute, Probolinggo, East Java, Indonesia. The journal publishes scholarly, empirical articles grounded in participatory action research, transdisciplinary engagement, and evidence-based social interventions designed to address contemporary community challenges. It emphasizes critical analyses of empowerment initiatives, socioeconomic impact assessments, and the development of intervention models supported by robust theoretical frameworks and rigorous evaluation methodologies. Submissions must move beyond descriptive or ceremonial reporting by demonstrating substantive theoretical contributions, active community participation, long-term sustainability, and replicability across diverse socio-cultural contexts.

The scope encompasses social innovation and appropriate technology transfer, community economic resilience, institutional capacity building for marginalized groups, environmental stewardship, public health advocacy, and community-driven digital and educational transformation. Priority is given to manuscripts exhibiting methodological rigor in participatory practices, comprehensive stakeholder analyses, verifiable longitudinal impact assessments, and strategic policy recommendations aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
