This study aimed to (1) compare the levels of knowledge and attitudes towards dengue and malaria in Indonesia and Taiwan; (2) test the effectiveness of video media in improving knowledge and attitudes towards dengue and malaria in Indonesia; and (3) explore participants’ perceptions of using video media in Indonesia. The research employed a mixed-methods approach, with a quantitative survey involving 33 respondents from Indonesia and 25 from Taiwan, and qualitative insights from 10 informants in Indonesia. Quantitative data were analyzed using Spearman correlation and t-tests, while qualitative data were gathered through Focus Group Discussions (FGDs). The results showed significant differences in knowledge and behavior towards malaria between Indonesia and Taiwan, but not for dengue. The findings suggest that video media is a powerful tool for health education campaigns, particularly for complex topics requiring behavior change, such as infectious disease prevention. However, based on qualitative findings, challenges related to technological accessibility were identified, underscoring the need for combining multiple educational mediums to reach a broader audience.
