Abstract
This research was motivated by the deradicalization of ex-terrorist convicts. It requires understanding the development of radicalization and sociological aspects, e.g., community acceptance and rejection of ex-terrorist convicts. One of the efforts to return ex-terrorist convicts to the community is developing their potential in creative economic activities. This study aimed to evaluate entrepreneurship training for ex-terrorist convicts to improve their creative economy management skills. The research approach employed in this study is a descriptive evaluation of the implementation of entrepreneurship training for ex-terrorist convicts to develop creative economy management abilities, which is specifically designed for them. This research novelty is training ex-convicts as a form of self-development and a solution for them to be entrepreneurs; besides, they can readjust to society according to the rules and norms that apply. In this study, the data sources were ex-terrorist prisoners chosen randomly to participate in entrepreneurship training designed beforehand. According to the study results, the entrepreneurship education model is suitable for developing the entrepreneurial spirit of the creative economy and national insight as a deradicalization strategy with multiple economic, social, and cultural benefits. Ex-terrorist convicts are occupied with economic activities, accompanied by increased national awareness. Their public acceptance, on the other hand, will increase.
