Modal Sosial dalam Pemberdayaan Ekonomi Perempuan melalui Koperasi Wanita Sakinah ‘Aisyiyah Bengkulu
Abstract
This article examines the role of social capital in women's economic empowerment through the Sakinah 'Aisyiyah Bengkulu Women's Cooperative. This study uses a descriptive qualitative approach with two data collection methods; purposively selected in-depth interviews (management and members) and analysis of the 2024 Annual Member Meeting (RAT) report documents. The findings show that social capital formed through Aisyiyah organizational networks, belief norms, and Islamic religious values has been proven to strengthen the capacity of female members to access and manage economic resources. During the 2020-2024 period, from the total cooperative capital of IDR 826 million to IDR 962 million, there was an almost twofold increase in Residual Operating Results (SHU). This emphasizes that social capital based on Islamic values in the 'Aisyiyah movement is a strong foundation for women's economic empowerment in a sustainable manner.
