Program Evaluation in Optimizing Mosque Activity Oversight

Abstract

Mosque activity oversight is one of the important aspects in ensuring that all programs and activities carried out run in accordance with the objectives, regulations, and the needs of the congregation. However, in its implementation, various obstacles are still found, such as the lack of optimal oversight systems, limitations in human resources, and the absence of evaluations conducted on an ongoing basis. This study aims to evaluate the mosque activity oversight program in order to optimize the effectiveness of program implementation and improve the quality of service to the congregation. The method used in this research is a qualitative approach, with data collection techniques through observation, interviews, and documentation. The data obtained were analyzed using descriptive analysis techniques to identify supporting factors, obstacles, and the level of success of the oversight program that has been implemented. The research results show that the implementation of mosque activity oversight has been going quite well, but still requires improvements in aspects such as planning, coordination among board members, the use of information technology, and more systematic evaluation mechanisms. Oversight optimization can be carried out by improving the competence of the board members, compiling standard operating procedures (SOP), and conducting periodic evaluations of each activity carried out. Thus, the program evaluation of oversight is expected to become a basis for improving the effectiveness of mosque management and realizing a more professional, transparent, and accountable organizational governance.
