Abstract
Health problems are still a serious challenge, especially in the Citarum watershed area. Changes in the lifestyle of increasingly modern society have become one of the foundations for GERMAS. A movement that aims to promote a culture of healthy living and leave unhealthy habits and behavior of society. The GERMAS action was also followed by promoting hygiene and healthy living habits and support for community-based infrastructure programs, which were synergized with the implementation of the Community Service Program which was carried out by students of the Indonesian Education University. This program has several focuses, such as building access to meet drinking water needs, community health installations. Both are basic infrastructure that is the foundation of the movement for healthy living people, especially for people who live in the Citarum watershed area. The method used in the implementation of this empowerment program is the participatory action learning method because this empowerment program is carried out as a medium for health education and socialization of the Healthy Living Community Movement (GERMAS). This service is located in Ketapang District, Bandung Regency by empowering KKN students, the community, and the government. The results of this program found that the development of access to meet drinking water needs an increased understanding of healthy living. This program implies that people^s neglect of the importance of healthy and clean living can be overcome
