Abstract

Village economic development in Indonesia is hampered by the lack of adequate infrastructure and human resources (HR). Improving both is considered essential to facilitate sustainable economic growth at the village level. This research utilises an in-depth literature research method, where data and information are collected from various academic sources, including journals, articles and research reports related to village economic development. The main findings of this study show that infrastructure improvements such as access to proper roads, stable electrification, and internet connection trigger village economic growth by improving the distribution of goods, expanding markets, and increasing efficiency. Meanwhile, empowering human capital through non-formal education and specialised skills training increases productivity and innovation. These investments also show co-benefits, such as improved access to health and education services, as well as strengthening the rural tourism sector. Infrastructure and human capital limitations must be addressed simultaneously to trigger inclusive and sustainable rural economic development. This research confirms that strategic measures, including appropriate investment and empowerment programmes, are important in placing villages on an adequate growth trajectory and harnessing existing local potential into a tangible economic force.

Abstract

This study aims to investigate the marketing strategy of local MSME products through the utilization of digital platforms in the new normal era. In the midst of new normal conditions marked by changes in consumer behavior and limited physical interaction, the use of digital platforms is crucial for the survival of MSME businesses. This study uses the literature review method by finding references in accordance with the research context. The results of the research findings show that MSMEs that implement digital marketing strategies effectively usually integrate several platforms such as social media, online marketplaces, and personal websites. Creative and personalized content, the use of SEO, and data analytics prove to be important in increasing interaction and sales. On the other hand, factors such as limited digital knowledge, financial capacity for initial investment, and cybersecurity are major barriers. The study also showed a significant increase in sales and market expansion for MSMEs that managed to overcome these barriers and implement digital strategies well.

Abstract

Innovation and entrepreneurship are key elements of economic development. The focus is on creating new ideas, technologies and business processes that can be more efficient and productive. Innovation means creating creative solutions that can be initiated, developed and marketed according to changing market needs, while entrepreneurship refers to the process of starting and advancing entrepreneurial life by managing new companies, creating labour, bringing economic diversification in a sustainable manner. The study conducted in this research uses the literature research method. The results show that Innovation and entrepreneurship have several macro effects that impact the economy. At the micro level, first of all, they create new jobs, which helps to lower the unemployment rate and improve social welfare. Secondly, innovation and entrepreneurship serve as an important way of diversifying the economy. This in turn helps lower the level of dependence on a single sector and increases the resilience of the economy to external shocks. Third, a business culture shaped by entrepreneurial spirit fosters economic dynamism and a sustainable innovative ecosystem.

Abstract

Empowering rural communities through increasing the capacity and accessibility of micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) is an important effort to measurably improve the economy and welfare of rural residents. This research uses the method of analyzing the latest data on the social and economic conditions of the village. The results of the study reveal that; first, the potential of MSMEs to create new employment opportunities, increase local income, and accelerate the transformation of the rural economy is quite significant. Reliable socialization must involve managerial assistance, easy access to funding, and the use of advanced digital solutions. Second, the role of the government and related stakeholders is crucial to support village development through MSME empowerment. Supporting policies such as training facilities, broad market access, and funding initiatives are absolutely necessary. Multi-sector cooperation between the government, education, and the business world is also important to build a conducive business ecosystem for rural entrepreneurs. Third, rural community empowerment needs to be implemented in an integrated and inclusive manner, not only boosting business establishment but also ensuring sustainability and growth. A sustainable approach to the improvement of MSMEs can strengthen the wheels of the village economy, reduce poverty, and improve the overall standard of living of rural communities.

Abstract

Community service through strengthening MSMEs is an effective strategy to encourage village progress. MSMEs have a crucial role in increasing local employment, which leads to a reduction in unemployment and an increase in the income of rural communities. In addition, the economic diversification resulting from the development of various business sectors helps create village economic resilience. Through empowerment and training, the capacity of human resources in the village increases, making MSME actors more competitive and efficient. Overall, strengthening MSMEs through community service programmes not only provides short-term benefits but also opens up opportunities for sustainable and inclusive economic growth in villages.
