Abstract

This study uses a quantitative method to examine the empowerment of Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in the context of economic development, focusing on their role in poverty reduction and improving welfare. MSMEs play an essential role in creating jobs, alleviating poverty, and strengthening the economy, particularly in developing countries such as Indonesia. The study aims to analyze how MSME empowerment can reduce existing social and economic inequalities, while also contributing positively to the social welfare of communities. The main focus of this research is on empowerment programs implemented by both the government and the private sector, as well as the challenges and opportunities for MSME players across various sectors. Using primary and secondary data from 15 relevant journals, this study finds that better access to financing and appropriate training can increase MSMEs’ competitiveness, improving the welfare of micro and small business owners. The findings are expected to provide valuable insights for policymakers in formulating more effective MSME empowerment strategies.

Abstract

The rupiah plays a vital role as a symbol of national identity and sovereignty, but awareness among rural communities about its function and importance is often limited. In Kutalimbaru Village, the main challenges identified are low monetary literacy, which results in physical damage to money and a lack of awareness about counterfeit money. Through the Real Work Lecture (KKN) program, community service efforts were carried out with the aim of internalizing the values of “Love, Pride, Understanding (CBP) of the Rupiah.” The approach used was community-based education through interactive workshops and practical demonstrations on money care techniques and an introduction to the security features of the Rupiah. Findings in the field show a transformation in the community's attitude; from being indifferent to being more careful in handling paper money and better understanding the role of the Rupiah in economic stability. This program has succeeded in increasing the financial literacy of citizens while strengthening the spirit of nationalism through appreciation of the national currency. Keywords: community empowerment, micro businesses, tempeh products, entrepreneurship, Sialaman Village.
