Recycling Used Cooking Oil into Aromatherapy Candles Training: An Environmentally Friendly Innovation in Dusun Janti, Sukun, Malang City
Used cooking oil is a common household waste often overlooked despite its potential to be recycled into valuable products. This community service activity aimed to empower members of the Indonesian Catholic Women’s Organization (WKRI) in Dusun Janti, Malang City, through training in making aromatherapy candles from used cooking oil. The program involved initial experiments, socialization, hands-on training, evaluation, and a final exhibition. The results indicated significant improvements in participants’ knowledge and technical skills in processing used oil. The resulting products were visually appealing, had strong scents, and showed economic development potential. The activity also fostered stronger social networks and local entrepreneurial spirit. These findings affirm that practice-based educational approaches are effective strategies to enhance environmental awareness and promote sustainable community economic empowerment.
