There is also a form of community initiated by the government with the aim of creating a knowledgeable society that is also connected with literacy. The example is ‘Rumah Pintar’. Rumah Pintar can be a means of community empowerment that accommodates various activities including literacy activities. ‘Rumah Pintar Puri Indah’ in Gedawang, Semarang, Central Java has potential to be developed so that it supports the literacy movement in the community.

This activity was attended by Puri Indah managers and community representatives. In the results and discussion, this activity can generally be said to be successful.
