(FEB NEWS) Friday, 29 September 2023, the Faculty of Economics and Business, Universitas Airlangga (FEB UNAIR) held a KKN Learning with Community (BBK) training event with the theme "Building BUMDES Towards an Independent Village" for around 27 students in semesters 5 and 7 FEB UNAIR by presenting speakers: Dr. (Can) Rian Pramana Suwanda, S.STP., MHP., CHRMP - Head of Village Government Development Division DPMD; Nur Syamsi, SE., MM., MSA., Ak., CA - Head of Regional Research and Innovation Agency (BRIDA) BAPPEDA Gresik; Sulistya Rusgianto, SE, MIF. – Secretary of the Department of Sharia Economics FEB UNAIR; and Dr. Erina Sudaryati, Dra., MS., Ak., CA., CMA - Deputy Chair of PKRI FEB UNAIR.

The KKN activity is aimed at building BUMDES towards an independent village. It is hoped that through this activity it can contribute to reducing poverty at the village level by helping build BUMDES (Village-Owned Enterprises) and increasing the economic potential of the community in the area. By helping to build BUMDES, it also means helping to create local jobs and encouraging economic growth in villages, which is in line with SDG target 8, Decent Work and Economic Growth.
By providing opportunities for village communities to get involved in BUMDES, it will certainly help reduce social and economic inequality in the region. This means that this activity can also be our support for the 10th SDG, Inequality.
If the village can become an independent village, it will be able to contribute to the achievement of sustainable cities and settlements by improving the quality of life and village infrastructure.

Form partnerships between academics and local governments and village communities to achieve sustainable development goals. This is a form of our support for SDg's 17.
Efforts to monitor and evaluate the progress of KKN activities are of course also important to always ensure in the future so that the efforts made produce the desired changes in terms of sustainable development at the village level.
