Socialization of Village-Owned Enterprises (BUMDES) to Practice with the Chair of the East Java BUMDES Forum to Develop the Potential of Wonosalam Village in the 2022 Ekis Goes to Villages (EGD) Program

 

The Islamic Economics Student Association has several major programs being implemented this year, one of which is Ekis Goes to Village (EGD) 2022. Ekis Goes to Village (EGD) is a type of village servant program which is participated in by Islamic Economics students Universitas Airlangga . This year, EGD 2022 has the theme "Elaboration on the development and utilization of natural resources and human resources in Mangirejo Hamlet, Wonosalam Village, Jombang, East Java in the aspects of health, education, environment and economy in order to increase sociopreneurship and environmental awareness." Through this activity, the committee contributed directly to the people of Mangirejo Hamlet, Wonosalam Village, especially in building and developing the village's potential, both in the economic, educational, environmental and health sectors.

The economic sub-event committee on July 24 2022 carried out the Village-Owned Enterprises (BUMDES) Socialization program for the residents of Wonosalam Village. Chair of the East Java BUMDES Forum, Mrs. Erina Sudaryati Dra., MS., Ak., CMA., CA was invited to take part in the socialization. Activities carried out in this program apart from socialization include practice by forming small groups from the residents present to brainstorm to produce village businesses that can attract visitors. Each group was asked to think about the potential of Wonosalam Village and design what programs could be implemented to develop the existing potential. 

This concept was developed to provide insight and awareness to the residents of Wonosalam Village so that they can maximize the natural resources in Wonosalam Village into a business that generates profits to support the village's economy. This socialization program is related to optimizing SDGs number 8, namely Decent Work and Economic Growth, aimed at residents of Wonosalam Village.
