This study aims to examine community-based education management implementation strategies for enhancing public involvement and to analyze the challenges affecting their success. The research employs a qualitative approach through an integrative literature review, analyzing scientific journals, education policy documents, and synthesizing various literature-based case studies relevant to community-based education. Data were analyzed descriptively through a process of reduction, categorization, synthesis, and interpretation of findings. The results indicate that increased public engagement can be achieved through several key strategies, namely mapping community needs in educational planning, strengthening school–community communication forums, empowering school committees, involving the community in program evaluation processes, capacity-building support for the community, and the application of transparency and accountability in educational management. These strategies contribute to an increased sense of ownership, public trust, and the relevance of educational programs to local needs. However, their implementation still faces challenges such as low community educational literacy, resource constraints, regional disparities, weak coordination among stakeholders, and the dominance of certain groups in decision-making. These findings imply that public engagement needs to be institutionalized through structured participatory mechanisms, supported by community capacity building, transparent governance, and sustainable collaboration between schools, communities, and the government.Â
