    Author: Desayu Eka Surya ; Wan Amizah Wan Mahmud

    DOI: 10.17576/JKMJC-2025-4101-18

    Abstract:

    This study explores the integration of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and Stakeholder Theory in PT Chevron Geothermal Indonesia’s (PT CGI) small and medium enterprise (SME) projects in Desa Samarang and Desa Pasirwangi Garut, Java Island, Indonesia. CSR has become a strategic tool for businesses to promote economic empowerment, environmental sustainability, and social well-being. This study aims to examine how PT CGI’s Super Chicken, Banana Plantation, and Mushroom Cultivation initiatives align with stakeholder interests, ensuring sustainable development. Grounded in Stakeholder Theory, which posits that businesses should address the interests of multiple stakeholders, this research employs a qualitative case study approach, collecting data through semi-structured interviews, document analysis, and direct observations. Sixteen key informants, including PT CGI representatives, local government officials, and SME beneficiaries, participated in the study, conducted between January and July 2016. Findings reveal that stakeholder engagement is critical to CSR success. The Super Chicken project enhanced food security and local income, the Banana Plantation initiative improved agricultural sustainability, and the Mushroom Cultivation project provided economic opportunities, particularly for women and marginalized groups. These initiatives illustrate the purpose of CSR in community-driven development, the value creation achieved through economic growth and skill development, and the interdependence between businesses and communities. The study concludes that CSR is most effective when implemented through stakeholder-driven models, fostering long-term self-sufficiency and shared value creation. This research contributes to CSR and Stakeholder Theory literature by providing insights into how corporations can drive sustainable development through collaborative, purpose-led CSR strategies. © 2025, Penerbit Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia.

    Author: Dewi Kurniasih; Maisya Chaluela Anjani

    DOI: 10.29333/ejecs/2350

    Abstract:

    Social workers play an important role in uplifting rural communities’ living standards. Considering the important role of social work services in dealing with the existence of potential issues of poverty and poor economic conditions in rural communities, more specifically in emerging economies, the current study integrated the community-based targeting view with empowerment theory to determine the social workers’ role in achieving community welfare in rural areas. Using rural household survey data from 597 households from 15 rural communities in two provinces of Indonesia, modern statistical tools, that is, SmartPLS analyzed the data. Results showed that social workers’ work relationships, skills and varieties, and moral alignment with rural communities enhance their empowerment qualities. The empowerment of social workers further transmits the significance of their role in helping rural communities bring economic development and welfare by providing basic needs of education, health facilities, employment opportunities, etc. The current study findings are valuable for practitioners and policymakers, specifically for focusing on rural community development programs by utilizing social workers’ efforts and extending their social networks to extract maximum benefits. © 2025, Florida Gulf Coast University.
