Abstract: The Waqf Core Principles Implementation Index (WCPII) was
developed in 2021 by the Indonesia Waqf Board and Central Bank of Indonesia
as a standardized framework to assess the core activities, governance, and risk
management of waqf managers (nazir) in the country. This index is critical for
ensuring the effectiveness, transparency, and governance of waqf institutions. The
objective of this study is to evaluate the significance of mentorship in enhancing
the implementation of the WCPII, focusing on Harapan Dhuafa, one of the nazhir
organizations in Banten, Indonesia. This study employs a case study approach by
using three stages of structure evaluation: pre assessment, intervention and post
assessment. The intervention consists of a structured mentoring program aiming
to build institutional capacity in line with WCPII criteria. The findings indicate
that, the intervention significantly improve the WCPII, including core activities,
governance, and risk management. The study contributes to the body of
knowledge on institutional waqf governance and highlights mentorship as a
strategic approach for capacity-building in waqf institutions.
