Background
The main aim of this flagship is to be involved in the development of the Sejahtera community within the RCE Greater Gombak. In particular, the projects in the flagship will be undertaking activities to develop the economic wellbeing of youth, single mothers and disadvantaged IIUM community members. The lack of capital and relevant knowledge to economically sustain themselves especially during this pandemic of Covid-19 are the primary reasons for this flagship to focus on these three groups of beneficiaries. They will be equipped with necessary entrepreneurial skills such as e-commerce, digital marketing and financial literacy/management.
- The flagship, which is under the patronage of the Kulliyyah of Economics and Management Sciences (KENMS) has members not only from the Kulliyyah but also from other K/C/D/I/O, namely, KIRKHS, KICT, AIKOL, OSIC, CENSERVE, SASMEC, and MSD with the aim of co-creation of knowledge by exploiting the diverse expertise of the members. In undertaking the projects, the flagship has also identified several potential external collaborators such as MPKK Sg Pusu, Masjid As-Syakirin, Jabatan Kemajuan Masyarakat Daerah Gombak, Agensi Anti Dadah Kebangsaan and YADIM. In addition, the flagship plans to work with Evoing Sdn Bhd, Wow Kaw Kaw, Kejar Pelangi and other selected SMEs for e-Commerce and digital marketing training and activities. Lastly, students who are involved in the flagship are labelled as YSM Buddy. Their involvements in this project are significant as it helps to nurture them to become balanced students.
A sejahtera community is the result of a holistic approach to a human development process. This flagship aims to carry out this integrated approach of human development through interactive modules. The modules integrate aspects of physical, emotional and spiritual wellbeing as well as knowledge acquisition. At the end of the flagship, a combination of holistic approach via interactive modules is expected to bring new life to the beneficiaries; economically self-sustaining, and emotionally and spiritually balanced.

- This flagship is specially designed for YSM in the RCE Greater Gombak as well as members of the IIUM community. The modules for each of the programmes are developed to ensure participants will eventually have access to opportunities and resources for their wellbeing. Participants will go through both economic uplifting and personal development programmes for them to self-sustain in the community.
- The projects within the flagship will as much as possible be promoting, preserving and elevating basic social values within the communities. Recruiting participants of the same vicinity or neighbourhood creates the sense of sharing and belonging to the local values and will be reflected in the businesses which participants are expected to set up. Businesses based on local produces or services would be the main objective as this minimises supply and logistic issues. From another perspective, the local based businesses promote the act of sharing opportunities and caring among members of the community. The community will not only thrive economically but also strengthen their social connectivity, which is very lacking nowadays. This project aims to propagate and bring back these local values imbued with Islamic values through personal development modules.
