About the Journal
Narasi Berdampak (Journal of Community Impact) is a peer-reviewed, open-access journal dedicated to advancing scholarship and practice in community engagement, community development, and socially impactful initiatives. Published by Narasi Publishing, the journal provides a scholarly platform for documenting, reflecting upon, evaluating, and disseminating knowledge and experiences arising from meaningful engagement between higher education institutions, communities, government, civil society, professional organizations, and other stakeholders.
The name “Narasi Berdampak” reflects the journal’s commitment to transforming community engagement into meaningful knowledge and tangible impact. Narasi refers to the process of telling, documenting, and constructing meaningful accounts of experiences, knowledge, and social change, while Berdampak emphasizes the importance of contributions that generate measurable, sustainable, and relevant benefits for communities. The journal therefore views community engagement not merely as a service activity, but as a process of knowledge exchange, collaboration, empowerment, and social transformation.
