Therefore, it could ward off the stigma attached to Pesantren as closed, traditional, radical and even terrorist supporting institutions. Pesantren carry out social and economic empowerment in the early stages of building and increasing motivation, mindset and mental attitude, as well as interaction and cooperation. They continue to do it by designing and implementing programs in a participatory manner involving students, alumni and the community on entrepreneurial management, product improvement, and marketing in order to promote activities that are more concerned with health, environment and renewable energy.
