Abstract

Rural communities often face economic challenges such as unemployment and limited income sources, making sustainable development a complex issue. Socio-preneurship, which combines social entrepreneurship with sustainable business practices, has emerged as a powerful model to address these challenges. Rural ecotourism initiatives, as a form of socio-preneurship, have gained attention for their potential to stimulate local economies, preserve natural resources, and promote social well-being. This study examines the community-level economic impact of rural ecotourism, focusing on how these initiatives contribute to income generation, job creation, and local business growth. Using a mixed-methods approach, this research combines quantitative surveys and qualitative case studies to assess the economic effects of rural ecotourism in three rural communities. The study measured indicators such as household income, business revenue, and job creation. The results show that 72% of households reported income increases, 65% of local businesses experienced revenue growth, and 48% of respondents identified job creation in the ecotourism sector. The findings indicate that rural ecotourism can drive sustainable economic development by diversifying local economies and creating long-term job opportunities. These initiatives also foster socio-economic resilience in rural areas. The study highlights the importance of community engagement in ensuring the success of ecotourism projects and suggests that socio-preneurship can be a viable strategy for rural development.

Abstract

The growing demand for transparency and accountability in Islamic social finance has intensified attention on waqf management systems, which continue to face challenges related to governance inefficiencies, limited public trust, and restricted global participation. Rapid advancements in digital technology, particularly blockchain, offer new opportunities to address these issues through decentralized, secure, and verifiable systems. This study aims to examine the potential of blockchain technology in enhancing transparency and promoting global social inclusion within waqf management. A qualitative research design combining doctrinal analysis and comparative evaluation is employed, utilizing secondary data from regulatory documents, institutional reports, and blockchain-based case implementations. Data are analyzed through thematic coding and comparative matrices to identify patterns and assess the effectiveness of technological integration. The findings reveal that blockchain significantly improves transparency, accountability, and donor participation by enabling immutable record-keeping and real-time tracking of waqf assets. Evidence also indicates that digital accessibility facilitated by blockchain expands cross-border engagement, strengthening the inclusivity of waqf systems. The study concludes that integrating blockchain into waqf management provides a viable pathway for modernizing Islamic philanthropic institutions, ensuring sustainable governance while enhancing global social impact.

Abstract

Background. Early literacy development is a crucial foundation for lifelong learning, yet many Indonesian primary school students continue to face difficulties in recognizing letters, decoding words, and connecting phonemes to visual symbols. Traditional flashcards, while useful, often fail to sustain young learners’ attention or provide interactive engagement. Purpose. This study aims to examine the effectiveness of AR-based flashcards in improving early literacy skills among first-grade students in Indonesian primary schools. Method. Employing a quasi-experimental design, the study involved 60 students divided into an experimental group using AR flashcards and a control group using conventional printed flashcards over six weeks. Data were collected through pre- and post-literacy assessments and classroom observations. Results. Statistical analysis using paired-sample t-tests indicated a significant improvement in letter recognition, word decoding, and reading fluency among the experimental group (p < .05). Observational findings also revealed heightened motivation, concentration, and active participation when AR elements were integrated into literacy instruction. Conclusion. The study concludes that AR flashcards provide a powerful medium for enhancing foundational literacy through multisensory engagement and interactive learning. The findings highlight the potential of AR technology to enrich early childhood education and support Indonesia’s national efforts in promoting digital-based learning environments.
