Abstract

This research explores the optimal application of the Child-Friendly School (SRA)-based approach across various cultural contexts to eliminate bullying and create a safe, comfortable learning environment. The study was conducted at Aisyiyah Bustanul Athfal Jatinom Kindergarten in Blitar Regency, using a qualitative approach with a case study design. Data collection involved desk reviews, participatory observation, in-depth interviews with teachers, students, and parents, as well as focus group discussions (FGD). The data was analyzed through reduction, presentation, verification, content analysis, and interpretation. The findings reveal that the success of the SRA program hinges on three key factors: a well-structured program, such as class agreements and sessions focused on positive values; a supportive school environment, complete with counseling facilities and anti-bullying media; and active parental involvement in monitoring and reinforcing children’s values. This research suggests that implementing SRA not only helps reduce bullying incidents but also fosters an inclusive school culture and supports the development of positive student character. The study recommends extending the research to diverse regions and cultural settings to ensure the program's sustainability and to provide a foundation for more adaptive and inclusive education policies.

Abstract

This research aims to analyze financial management practices in building the sustainability of nonprofit organizations. This research is based on financial management strategies that are applied to maintain operational stability, program sustainability and increase stakeholder trust. The research method used is a descriptive qualitative approach with data collection techniques through in-depth interviews, direct observation, and analysis of financial documents over the past three years. The results show that effective financial management includes transparency in reporting, participation in budget planning, consistent internal oversight, and diversification of funding sources, such as collaboration with external partners and optimization of institutional assets. The study results show that the organization’s sustainability is greatly influenced by the management’s commitment to carrying out the principles of accountability and efficiency in using funds. The implications of this study show that a strong financial management capacity is an important foundation for the sustainability of nonprofit organizations. These findings are expected to serve as a practical reference for similar institutions in designing financial systems that are adaptive, professional, and impact-oriented to long-term impact.
