Recently, Dolly community are transforming their values, characters, morality, work related skill, attitude and experience. They are encouraged to participate in various provided learning activities. These empowering actions aim to enable Dolly community to survive through their new conditions and grow. Dolly community transformation poses challenging and dynamic community education. Thus, this study aims to explore several dynamics in empowering Dolly community through qualitative method. The data are collected through direct observation, depth interview and focus group discussion. The study indicates that there are several fundamental community empowerment aspects should be addressed for changing and developing Dolly. The first aspect is developing community education targeted and aimed to transform and restructure Dolly’s mindset to create more creative, hardworking and productive society. The second factor is the availability of education for increasing Dolly’s youth working skills and characters. The third aspect is the involvement and participation of all community elements as learning facilitators to support Dolly’s empowerment through experiential learning, enrichment, couching, modeling, mentoring, embedding and industrial partnership programs. The fourth factor is developing infrastructure to support growth of Dolly’s small and middle-sized home industries. It is expected that the vibrancy of learning opportunities may change and transform Dolly’s mental, character and working-skill to overall improve Dolly’s capacity to develop and be self-sustained.
