Abstract


Abstract: Parit Baru Village, Sungai Raya District, Kubu Raya Regency, West Kalimantan Province, already has a Red and White Cooperative established based on Presidential Instruction of the Republic of Indonesia Number 9 of 2025. However, the institution faces several obstacles including weak governance and institutions within it. Therefore, this community service activity was carried out with the aim of supporting the improvement of insight, knowledge, and procedures for cooperative management in supporting the strengthening of the Red and White Cooperative institution with the principles of good cooperative governance. This activity was carried out in stages, namely with a systematic method: (1) conducting potential mapping, (2) providing counseling regarding the institution and governance of the Red and White Cooperative, and (3) formulating strategies for strengthening the institution and governance through SWOT analysis. The results of this activity are an increased understanding of the management and strengthening of the institution and its governance. In addition, the Collective Participation-Based Strengthening Model is also formulated in four main principles: (1) increasing member capacity through continuing education; (2) transparent, accountable, and participatory cooperative governance; (3) diversification of productive businesses based on local potential; and (4) the use of digital technology and Artificial Intelligence (AI). This model can be used as a basis for developing more systematic and sustainable community empowerment methods for the Merah Putih Cooperative, even on a national scale.
