Family Welfare Empowerment (PKK) Role in Set Woman Cooperation to Support Economy Creative Empowerment Based on Community

Abstract

The aim of research is to explore the perception of replacing the family welfare empowerment (Pemberdayaan Kesejahteraan Keluarga or PKK) to be a women’s cooperation based on community. The main activities in PKK focus on family health support such as vaccination for babies, saving turns (arisan) and any issues related to family care. The PKK has developed in the Indonesian community which changes the membership majority to women. The PKK is a unique organization, because it is not legalized but it is permitted by the government to be set among citizens. However, there is one of ten main PKK activities that develop cooperation. A cooperation can develop a member’s economy through a main business which is based on the member’s deals. It is important to have some grounding in what social capital is, and how online social capital is both similar and different from it. In both instances, social capital involves social networks, with online social capital having the added dimension of residing within the structural ecosystem of digital networks.
