  Digital Empowerment and Community Capacity Building for Sustainable Development

  Vol. 1 No. 1 (2026)

  Digital transformation has created new opportunities for strengthening community capacity, improving governance, enhancing digital and financial literacy, and promoting sustainable development. To maximize these opportunities, communities require adaptive competencies, technological readiness, and collaborative empowerment strategies.

  This issue of the Journal of Global Research in Community Service and Social Humanities (JGRCSSH) presents community service initiatives that foster sustainable development through digital empowerment and capacity building. The published articles explore practical approaches to improving financial literacy among MSMEs, strengthening organizational accountability, expanding digital literacy in rural communities, enhancing hospitality workforce competencies through Artificial Intelligence (AI)-based training, and promoting the adoption of intelligent systems and multimedia technologies in the Industry 5.0 era.

  Together, these contributions demonstrate that sustainable community development depends on the integration of technology, education, financial empowerment, and collaborative engagement. This issue offers valuable insights for academics, practitioners, policymakers, and community organizations seeking to design innovative and inclusive empowerment programs that strengthen community resilience and support sustainable social and economic development.
