Abstract

To reach the target of ending the dengue epidemic by 2030, all effort shall be made to minimize the dengue
transmission across the country through effective, efficient, low-cost and sustainable programs. In Indonesia,
the evidence of community empowerment on dengue prevention is insufficient. The objective of this study is to explore
the opinion of community and larva monitoring workers (Jumantik cadre) on dengue prevention. A structured
free listing interview was conducted in April-May 2019 by targeting two groups: the community and larva workers
in one village of Sleman, Yogyakarta. Door to door interviews were done until the quota and saturation were
reached. Each group was asked four free listing questions. The analysis was performed in these stages: transcribing,
coding, combining by the question, and calculating the salience score. The most salient score about vector control
in the larva cadre was not hanging up dirty clothes; in the community it was cleaning the bathtub. Both groups cited
themself as the salient motivator in joining the vector control. Protecting the environment and keeping healthy were
the reasons for participating in the vector control. The larva cadre stated community refusal as the main challenge.
The community cited the importance of larva cadre: to monitor the presence of larva. Community empowerment on
dengue vector control has not been effortlessly executed at the bottom level.
