Abstract

This paper examines the activities and results of the Aceh Tsunami Orphan Kafala Program policy, carried out by the NGO Organizations of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) Alliance in collaboration with the Aceh Regional Government. In accordance with the agreement between the OIC and the Indonesian government through the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the OIC Alliance has a mission to help orphans of the Aceh Tsunami victims in the form of scholarships in the fields of education, health and training. In its implementation, OIC has partnered with national humanitarian institutions; Baitulmal Muamalat (BMM), Rumah Zakat and PKPU. The results of this study indicate that: (1) the total number of orphans who benefited from this program from 2006 - 2016 were 20,000 children spread across 6 districts / cities in Aceh, (2) the details of the programs that were running were: (a) living assistance, (b) mentoring and guidance, (c) education, (d) health (e) training and rehabilitation. Among the results of the program is the return of children who drop out of school due to the inability to pay to go to school and a number of children who graduate from high school can continue their education at the university
