Peran Organisasi Pendidikan Nonformal Melalui Perspektif Neo Institusionalism (Studi Kasus: Organisasi Desa Pendidikan FISH UNJ Tahun 2024 di Kecamatan Pulo Gadung, Jakarta Timur)

Abstract

This study analyzes the role of the non-formal education organization, Desa Pendidikan FISH UNJ 2024, in
addressing disparities in educational access and dropout rates among elementary and middle school students
in Pulo Gadung District, East Jakarta. Using Scott’s Neo-Institutionalism theory, the study highlights the three
main pillars of institutionalization regulative, normative, and cognitive implemented within the Desa
Pendidikan program to ensure its sustainability and acceptance within the community. This qualitative
descriptive research was conducted from February to October 2024 at RPTRA Jaka Berseri and the Faculty
of Social and Legal Sciences, UNJ, involving eight key informants, including Desa Pendidikan administrators,
RPTRA management, parents, and student beneficiaries. Data were collected through observations, interviews,
and documentation. The findings indicate that the Desa Pendidikan program has a positive impact on the
surrounding community by improving access to education and ensuring the program’s sustainability through
regular evaluations.
