Social responsibility model to empower community for higher education institution

Abstract. This study aims to build a social responsibility model for higher education institutions (HEI) from human social nature. This study uses a qualitative research design. Data collection was carried out through in-depth interviews with several HEI management and literature studies related to the basis and limitations of the model. The data are analyzed, interpreted, elaborated, and the HEI social responsibility model is built. This model uses the perspective of human social nature. This model represents the essence of HEI’s social responsibility and provides a basic transformation in HEI management in terms of sustainability, transparency, and accountability. HEI’s social responsibility is concreted in teaching, research, and community service activities. By carrying out its social responsibilities, the institution will gain legitimacy from the community. Its existence will be well received to build synergy between the institution and the community, both the government and the local community. This has an impact on improving the image of HEI.
