- This approach aims to strengthen community-based security.
- The concept was developed as part of his doctoral research in law.
A member of the Indonesian National Police, Commissioner M. Fadli Amri, has introduced a novel concept for enhancing community security through "Sociopreneurship Policing." This innovative approach, developed during his doctoral studies in law at Universitas Islam, seeks to integrate social entrepreneurship principles into law enforcement strategies.
Amri's model emphasizes building stronger, more resilient security frameworks directly within communities. By fostering a sense of shared responsibility and leveraging entrepreneurial thinking, the initiative aims to create sustainable solutions for local safety challenges. The core idea is to empower communities to actively participate in their own security.
The proposal suggests that by adopting a sociopreneurial mindset, police can better address the root causes of crime and social issues. This involves not just reactive measures but also proactive community engagement and the development of social enterprises that contribute to public safety and well-being. The research aims to provide a practical blueprint for implementing this integrated approach.
