As part of this assessment activity, the UNDIP FPP Team visited several productive business units in Islamic boarding schools, including Green House, Livestock Pens, Fish Farming, and Vegetable Cultivation Land. This activity aims to assess the potential and opportunities for halal-based economic development that can be implemented sustainably in Islamic boarding school environments.
This assistance received support from various parties, including the Bank Indonesia Team, Deputy Head of the Central Java Provincial Representative Office of KPwBI, Mrs. Andi Reina Sari H and the team who also attended this activity. With the collaboration between academics, Islamic boarding schools, and the financial sector, it is hoped that the development of the halal value chain ecosystem can be increasingly optimal and have a positive impact on the sharia-based economy in Indonesia.
