<![CDATA[Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) play a vital role in improving the quality of life and supporting economic growth in Indonesia. MSMEs not only serve as the foundation of the national economy but also contribute significantly to employment, income distribution, and strengthening local economies. This study aims to examine the contribution of MSMEs to the enhancement of welfare and economic development in Indonesia. The research employs a qualitative approach with a deductive strategy based on literature review from various references such as books, reports, and relevant journal articles. The findings indicate that MSMEs have the potential to be a major driver of economic growth, particularly in job creation, income improvement, and maintaining national economic stability, especially during economic crises.
