Astaning Dwi Safitri

Abstract


In Cisait Village, poverty is a major challenge for most families. In this research, we analyzed the problem and implemented Community Learning in Empowering Housewives through Home Industry in Cisait Village. Through observations, interviews, and counseling, we found that economic issues and unemployment were the main focus. Many families depend on unstable incomes, while housewives face difficulties in finding work due to the responsibility of taking care of children at home. Home industry counseling was organized to provide skills and knowledge to housewives, with a focus on work that can be done from home. As a result, the participants showed great enthusiasm and increased their confidence. Some business examples such as online business and frozen food business were recommended because they are flexible and efficient. Post-counseling, monitoring and evaluation continue to ensure sustainability and capacity building of entrepreneurs in Cisait Village.
