<![CDATA[This study investigates the development prospects of Koperasi Desa Merah Putih (KDMP) as a key player in accelerating the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) at the village level. The primary goal is to identify the institutional and operational challenges that limit the cooperative’s potential and propose solutions through improved governance, business model maturity, ecosystem partnerships, and digital transformation. Using a mixed-methods approach, the study combines quantitative surveys with in-depth interviews and observations to assess the cooperative's readiness, its business model, and its impact on SDG goals. The findings reveal that participatory governance, a clear business model focused on value-added services, and strong partnerships are essential for driving SDG outcomes, especially in areas such as income generation, social inclusion, and environmental sustainability. Furthermore, digital literacy is crucial for enhancing transparency and improving operational efficiency. The study also stresses the importance of integrating SDG indicators into cooperative governance for ensuring long-term sustainability. In conclusion, this research underscores the role of Koperasi Desa Merah Putih as a social institution capable of fostering inclusive economic transformation at the village level, making a significant contribution to the SDGs.]]>
