Tesis ini bertujuan untuk memahami peran Nahdlatul Ulama (NU) Kabupaten Cilacap dalam memberdayakan komunitas purna Pekerja Migran Indonesia (purna-PMI) dan keluarganya di daerah asal, kendala dan tantangannya, serta strategi dalam memengaruhi kebijakan terkait program pemberdayaan komunitas purna-PMI. Penelitian ini dirancang menggunakan pendekatan kualitataif dengan studi kasus pada Lembaga kajian dan pengembangan sumber daya manusia (Lakpesdam) dan Fatayat NU Kabupaten Cilacap Jawa Tengah. Data primer diperoleh melalui wawancara mendalam, focus group discussion, dan observasi langsung sedangkan data sekunder melalui telaah pustaka. Teknik analisis data dilakukan melalui open coding, axial coding, dan selective coding. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian kualitatif eksplanatif dan tergolong ke dalam penelitian terapan (applied research). Kerangka teoritik yang digunakan mengacu pada konsep pemberdayaan komunitas dan menitikberatkan kepada peran pelaku perubahan/aktor (agent of change). Tesis ini menunjukkan hal baru, yang masih jarang dikaji oleh penelitian-penelitian sebelumnya mengenai pemberdayaan komunitas purna-PMI. Tesis ini mengungkapkan pentingnya peran organisasi masyarakat sipil (civil society organization) berbasis keagamaan dalam pemberdayaan komunitas purna-PMI di daerah asal. NU Kabupaten Cilacap melakukan berbagai program pemberdayaan bagi para purna-PMI (termasuk keluarganya) di Desa Danasri Kidul Kecamatan Nusawungu Kabupaten Cilacap melalui suatu wadah komunitas lokal “Forum Warga Buruh Migran (FWBM)”. Pengurus Lakpesdam dan Fatayat NU Kabupaten Cilacap sebagai pelaku perubahan/aktor (agent of change) menjalankan berbagai peran dan keterampilan guna mendukung keberhasilan serta keberlanjutan berbagai program pemberdayaan tersebut. Penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa organisasi masyarakat sipil (civil society organization) berbasis keagamaan cenderung memiliki komitmen yang kuat terhadap pelaksanaan dan keberlanjutan program pemberdayaan komunitas purna-PMI.
