Abstract

The Desa Cantik program is one of the Central Statistics Agency (BPS) programs to realize sectoral statistical development at the village level in a sustainable and comprehensive manner. BPS Tanggamus Regency is one of the BPS that participates in developing Desa Cantik. In 2024, BPS Tanggamus will develop 4 villages spread across Tanggamus Regency. The four villages are Kampung Baru, Kagungan, Purwodadi and Banding Agung. The purpose of this development is to increase the capacity of the village or the ease in identifying data needs and potential owned by the village in order to eradicate poverty and increase statistical literacy in the village. In line with the responsibility carried out by BPS regarding this Desa Cantik program, the development is also a challenge for the staff of the Mathematics Department FMIPA Unila to participate in transferring knowledge and skills, especially related to Statistical Techniques. Through this program, human resources in the village are trained to process village monographic data and present it in the form of infographics with the help of the Tableu and Canva applications. The results of this training activity showed that 71% of participants had actively participated in preparing infographics.
