This paper aims to investigate the extent to which a rural community develops a capacity to support the establishment of a local creative economy despite various limitations. This study employs qualitative research methods in examining two villages in Indonesia, namely Kasongan and Krebet. Our findings show that the community capacity and actor networks potentially spark the development of rural economies. Local communities in both cases have utilized cultures and traditions as creative capitals, which were commercialized through communal entrepreneurship and mobilized by an organized network of creative actors. Social values, namely a strong sense of belonging, high shared values and strong emotional connections, are found to be the key factors that foster creative potentials, entrepreneurial capacity, and capacity for mobilization of local resources within the rural communities

Zakat The main purpose of zakat in Islam is the distribution of welfare evenly to all people. On the other hand, the management and distribution of zakat carried out with proper and right governance also has positive implications for community empowerment, including changes in healthy behavior. Lembaga Amil Zakat Harapan Duafa (LAZ Harfa) is one of Zakah Institute which has a community empowerment program with specific activities on changing healthy living behavior in a number of sub-districts in Pandeglang Regency. For the sake of the success of the program, in addition to using donation funds, assistance and third party cooperation, LAZ Harfa also utilizes a portion of the zakat funds they manage. This descriptive qualitative research aims to find out about the management of zakat funds for a change in healthy living behavior programs, and the implementation of their use. The practical implications are expected to be a model for zakat management in making zakat distribution programs that are right on target.

One of the alternatives, the national program for rural community empowerment was regarded the most effective way by the government of Banyumas Regency. The implementation of the program in extending credit had hit the accurate target, but was not successful in terms of opening new employment and increasing the income of woman’s business groups because of relatively small amount of entrepreneurial loan, relatively high interest of 17% per year, and short repayment period of 1 year. Poor traders encounter tight competition, lack of information, lack of skills and low motivation to thrive. As a supporting factor, the implementation of physical development was not effective because the poor as the target group were not involved much in development planning discussion represented by recognized local figures, representatives of several villages and village apparatuses who had authority to take the initiative for designing the program. The decision regarding the physical development was preferably designated for their own interest rather than the business orientation of poor housewives group in rural areas. In addition, low education and low social status of the poor business group cause the tendency to inferiority, which lead to be apathy and passiveness in planning and supervision of the rural community empowerment program
