Abstract

This study aims to describe the function of Islamic boarding schools in community empowerment through an economic independence ecosystem model, with a case study at Yaspida Islamic Boarding School, Sukabumi. The approach used is descriptive-qualitative through field surveys, interviews, and focus group discussions (FGD) with primary and secondary data. The results of the study indicate that Yaspida Islamic Boarding School has implemented an economic independence ecosystem model that contributes significantly to improving the welfare of leaders, educators, students, and the surrounding community. This model is based on Law Number 18 of 2019 concerning Islamic Boarding Schools, specifically in carrying out the function of community empowerment. Islamic boarding school economic activities are developed in the form of micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) and macro businesses in the form of limited liability companies (PT) according to the potential and capabilities of the Islamic boarding school. There are nine main indicators of empowerment which include job training, strengthening the Islamic boarding school economy, establishing cooperatives and financial institutions, marketing assistance, management guidance, and technology development and social activities. This study concludes that the economic independence ecosystem model implemented by Yaspida Islamic Boarding School is able to become a role model for Islamic boarding school-based community empowerment that is sustainable, productive, and oriented towards the economic independence of the community.
