PERAN KOMUNITAS TURUN TANGAN DALAM BERPARTISIPASI UNTUK MENGATASI MASALAH PEMENUHAN HAK PENDIDIKAN DI SURABAYA

Abstract

The issue of educational rights fulfillment in Surabaya is a social problem arising from discrepancies within the
existing educational system. Although the government is responsible for addressing this issue, its implementation
remains limited and suboptimal. This study aims to evaluate the role of the Turun Tangan Surabaya community in
addressing the problem of educational rights fulfillment in the city. The research employs a qualitative method with
a case study design, involving the collection of primary data through interviews and secondary data through
documentation. The collected data is analyzed using the AGIL scheme within Talcott Parsons' structural functional
theory. The findings reveal that the Turun Tangan Surabaya community plays a significant role in fulfilling
educational rights through several approaches. First, they provide manpower support through activities such as
"Tebar Senyum," focusing on motivating and emotionally supporting students. Second, they offer educational services
by organizing events like the School People's Olympics, aimed at enhancing educational quality. Third, the community
supports literacy by conducting activities like "book story" and literacy contributions to provide reading materials
and foster a reading culture. Fourth, they encourage community participation in their activities to increase public
involvement and support for education. This study highlights that the community's active role in various aspects
significantly impacts the fulfillment of educational rights in Surabaya
