Educational transformation in the era of globalization and the Industrial Revolution 4.0 requires educational institutions not only to produce academically competent graduates but also individuals with entrepreneurial spirit, creativity, and adaptability. The high rate of educated unemployment indicates the need for alternative approaches, one of which is the implementation of an edupreneurial business model. This concept integrates entrepreneurial principles into educational management, emphasizing innovation, value creation, and sustainability. This study analyzes the application of business models in edupreneurship within formal educational institutions, covering conventional, digital, and social models. The findings indicate that edupreneurship enhances educational relevance, expands accessibility, and supports financial independence of institutions. Social edupreneurship is considered effective in promoting educational equity through socially impactful business models. The success of implementing an edupreneurial business model depends on continuous innovation, technological utilization, strategic partnerships, and diversification of funding sources. Therefore, edupreneurship is recommended as a visionary, adaptive, and sustainable strategy for educational transformation.

This study investigates the implementation of reasonable accommodations for students with special needs at SMP Negeri 32 Kota Tangerang. The research focuses on how inclusive education is operationalized within a public junior high school context to ensure equal educational opportunities for all learners, regardless of their physical, intellectual, or emotional differences. The central problem addressed concerns the extent to which inclusive policies and practices are effectively translated into tangible support systems for students with special needs. Accordingly, the primary objective of this study is to analyze the implementation process, challenges, and outcomes of reasonable accommodations in promoting inclusive learning environments. A qualitative research design was employed, utilizing data collection techniques such as observation, in-depth interviews with the principal, special education teachers, homeroom and subject teachers, as well as students with special needs, complemented by documentation analysis. The validity of the data was established through triangulation, encompassing processes of data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings demonstrate that SMP Negeri 32 Kota Tangerang has successfully implemented reasonable accommodations supported by the BOSDA Inklusi program. This funding facilitates the provision of accessibility features—including ramps, guiding blocks, accessible toilets, and wheelchairs—alongside adaptive learning materials and teacher remuneration. Furthermore, systematic identification and assessment procedures are conducted regularly, and the curriculum is continuously adapted to meet individual learning needs. The school also organizes regular capacity-building programs for educators and staff. In addition, strong collaboration with the Tangerang City Government, the Difabel Mandiri Indonesia Foundation, and USAID Madani provides sustained technical assistance and monitoring.

Education has long been recognized as a primary determinant of economic progress and human development , yet in the context of a global economy characterized by rapid technological change and the sustainability imperative, the focus shifts from the mere quantity of investment to its effectiveness in fostering sustainable economic growth. Current education systems face significant challenges, including a persistent global "learning crisis" , governance inefficiencies , and a misalignment between curricula and the demands of the labor market, particularly the green and digital economies. Given that existing literature often treats education investment as a static input and fails to holistically integrate sustainability and governance into the optimization process , this conceptual article aims to bridge these theoretical and empirical gaps by proposing an integrated model for the optimization of education investment for sustainable economic growth. The method involves a conceptual analysis that synthesizes human capital theory , endogenous growth theory , and the economics of sustainability , emphasizing the roles of governance, innovation, and inclusivity as mediating factors. The key finding of the study indicates that optimization necessitates a paradigm shift from input-oriented budgeting toward an outcome-based investment framework that holistically balances three crucial dimensions: efficiency (maximizing learning outcomes) , equity (ensuring inclusive access) , and relevance (alignment with sustainability needs). The resulting policy implications are delineated across the Macro (fiscal integration and sustainability strategies through performance-based funding) , Meso (institutions transform into adaptive innovation centers) , and Micro (enhancement of reskilling, upskilling, and human capital capacity) levels; by achieving this alignment, education successfully transitions from a cost center to a strategic catalyst driving sustained prosperity.

This article analyzes the challenges and solutions surrounding funding for Early Childhood Education (ECE) institutions in Indonesia, with a particular focus on the high dependence on parental fees and the limited availability of external support. ECE plays a crucial role in supporting children’s development during their early years; however, many institutions struggle with financial instability due to inadequate and inconsistent funding sources. This study uses a literature review approach by synthesizing relevant books, journal articles, government regulations, and institutional reports to provide a comprehensive understanding of the funding landscape. Findings show that most ECE institutions rely heavily on parental contributions, causing financial vulnerability, limiting program development, and reducing access for low-income families. Government assistance through the Operational Education Assistance (BOP) remains insufficient and often delayed. Meanwhile, collaborations with the private sector, CSR programs, and community-based support are still minimal. Financial challenges negatively affect institutions’ ability to provide adequate facilities, ensure teacher welfare, and implement holistic-integrative learning programs. The study suggests several solutions, including strengthening financial management capacity, applying participatory budgeting, diversifying funding sources, and initiating creative economic programs such as school bazaars and community partnerships. These strategies are expected to improve sustainability and enhance the quality of ECE services in Indonesia.

Early Childhood Education (PAUD) honorary teachers in West Sumatra face serious welfare challenges, with incomes far below the Provincial Minimum Wage (UMP). This condition affects work motivation, limits access to professional development, and reduces the quality of early childhood education services. This study aims to analyze the current welfare conditions of PAUD honorary teachers, identify the factors contributing to low welfare, and offer strategic solutions involving the government, PAUD institutions, the community, and the teachers themselves. This research employed a literature review method by examining scientific journals, educational department reports, statistical data, government regulations, and supporting theories such as Human Capital and Work Motivation. The findings indicate that low welfare is caused by limited regional government budgets, reliance on parental fees, weak legal status of PAUD teachers, limited certification opportunities, and insufficient CSR and community support. Recommended solutions include increasing government funding, expanding ASN/PPPK recruitment opportunities, strengthening institutional management, collaborating with private sectors, and enhancing teacher competence through continuous training. In conclusion, improving the welfare of PAUD teachers is an urgent step to strengthen the quality of early childhood education services and support the achievement of national education goals from an early age.

Early Childhood Education (PAUD) plays a fundamental role in shaping children's character, moral values, and intellectual potential from an early age. However, many PAUD institutions in Indonesia still face serious challenges in management, where attention is focused more on operational sustainability than on improving educational quality. This study aims to describe the actual condition of PAUD institutions, analyze the causes of weak management, and identify the impact of operational orientation on educational quality. The method used is a literature study through analysis of various sources such as books, scientific journals, research reports, and government policies related to PAUD implementation. The results of the study indicate that weak management is caused by limited human resources, low managerial competence, minimal funding, weak planning, and a lack of supervision and community support. The impact is seen in the decline in educational quality and low public trust in PAUD institutions. Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen quality-based management that emphasizes improving educator competence, community involvement, effective management of infrastructure, utilization of educational technology, and implementation of continuous evaluation. Professional and adaptive PAUD management is key to realizing superior, high-quality institutions that are relevant to the developmental needs of early childhood in the modern era.

This study investigates the impact of equity crowdfunding on significant infrastructure projects in Indonesia, with a focus on those that fall under the regulatory framework outlined in POJK No. 37/POJK.04/2018. It addresses the following research question: How does equity crowdfunding contribute to Indonesia's infrastructure financing? Its narrow focus on the use of crowdfunding for infrastructure fills a gap in the literature, which often lacks empirical research unique to Indonesia. Using a mixed-method approach that combines qualitative insights from stakeholder interviews with quantitative analysis of crowdfunding data, the study finds that although equity crowdfunding has the potential to mobilize capital for infrastructure, obstacles include investor protection, regulatory compliance, and project scalability. The study emphasizes the crucial role of regulatory frameworks and specially designed financial products in determining the outcomes of crowdfunding. In the end, the study recommends changing policy to create an atmosphere that is favorable to crowdfunding, improving financial, and aiding Indonesia's sustainable development goals.

This approach allows schools to function not only as teaching institutions but also as centers for community-based economic and social empowerment. This study employs the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method to analyze various scientific publications related to the implementation of educational business incubation, edupreneurship, and the strengthening of elementary school institutions. The findings indicate that educational business incubation programs can create alternative funding sources, expand opportunities for innovative learning, and reinforce a participatory culture within schools. Beyond financial aspects, business incubation also promotes cross-sector collaboration among schools, government, private sectors, and communities, thereby establishing a sustainable edupreneurship ecosystem. Through strategic and collaborative management, elementary schools can become independent, innovative institutions with high competitiveness in facing future educational challenges.

Development financing systems in various developing countries, including Indonesia, have been tested by repeated global crises, such as the 2008 financial crisis, the COVID-19 pandemic, and geopolitical tensions since 2020. The economy is highly dependent on external funding, such as foreign loans and foreign direct investment (FDI), making it vulnerable to disruptions and uncertainty in capital flows. This article examines the strategic role of domestic savings as a stabilizer in maintaining the resilience of development financing using a desk study approach. The literature review shows that mobilizing domestic savings through conventional and Islamic financial institutions is crucial for encouraging long-term investment, reducing dependence on external financing, and strengthening national fiscal independence. In the Islamic economy, the rise of yield-based savings instruments, productive waqf, and retail sukuk has helped expand a stable and equitable domestic funding base. Furthermore, this article finds that digital transformation, fiscal incentive policies, and financial literacy are key to increasing public participation in productive savings. Therefore, increasing domestic savings is an economic tool and a national defense strategy in facing ongoing global crises.

This study examines the concept of the Great Filter as a metaphor to explain why only a few Islamic missionary organizations and startups are able to survive amidst digital disruption, while many others fail. Disruption, characterized by rapid changes in technology, regulations, and societal behavior, creates significant pressure that demands high levels of adaptability and innovation. This study uses a qualitative method based on a literature review by analyzing various literature related to entrepreneurship, digital missionary work, and dynamic capabilities. The results show that the success of Islamic missionary organizations in facing disruption is determined by a combination of visionary leadership, continuous innovation, mastery of digital technology, and the organization's ability to learn and adapt. Conversely, failure is often caused by limited funding, minimal innovation, and weak digital strategies. Thus, the Great Filter can be understood as a natural selection process that only resilient, adaptive organizations can overcome, and is able to combine spiritual values with entrepreneurial innovation.

This study aims to examine in depth the level of effectiveness and obstacles faced in the use of RME. This study uses a qualitative descriptive approach that aims to describe in depth the effectiveness and obstacles in the use of RME at the Baleendah Health Center. Data collection techniques were carried out through triangulation, namely, observation, interviews, and documentation. The informants in this study consisted of three people, namely the Head of the Puskesmas, medical records officer, and a doctor. Overall, the results showed that the implementation of RME at the Puskesmas received full support from the management, including aspects of funding, training, technology, and regular evaluation of the problems faced. RME has become the main focus because it is considered more effective and efficient than manual systems, especially in accelerating and improving the accuracy of services. However, the implementation still encountered a number of obstacles, such as internet network disruptions in the early stages, which have now been resolved by adding devices at certain points. The limited number of IT experts is also an obstacle because it slows down the handling of technical problems. In addition, server disruptions still occur because data storage is centralized at Diskominfo along with 62 other Puskesmas in Bandung Regency, which causes delays in data access.

Islamic boarding schools (pesantren) as traditional Islamic educational institutions not only serve as places for shaping students’ character, morals, and spirituality but also hold great potential in developing community economic independence through the management of pesantren business units. These business units are a concrete manifestation of the values of independence, hard work, and responsibility taught in the pesantren’s educational process. The purpose of this study is to examine in depth the role of pesantren business units in supporting the economic self-reliance of the pesantren itself as well as their contribution to empowering the surrounding community. This study employs a descriptive qualitative method with a case study approach on several pesantren that have successfully developed various business units such as cooperatives, agriculture, livestock, garment production, and student shops. The results show that pesantren business units function not only as a means of entrepreneurship education for students but also as a primary source of funding to support the operational activities of the pesantren. In addition, they act as the driving force of the local economy by creating employment opportunities, increasing income, and promoting community-based economic empowerment. The success of pesantren business units is influenced by professional management, strong leadership support, and the ability to innovate and adapt to changing times.
