This study is motivated by the importance of strengthening numeracy skills among teachers as a fundamental competency in supporting the success of the learning process, particularly in addressing the increasingly complex challenges of numeracy literacy. Teachers are expected not only to understand numeracy concepts theoretically but also to integrate numeracy skills into daily learning in a contextual
and meaningful manner for students. To support this need, LKP Matematika Indonesia organizes a training program designed to enhance teachers’ numeracy understanding and skills through an applied and problem-solving-based approach. This study aims to describe teachers’ perceptions of the implementation of the Blue Ocean Strategy by LKP Matematika Indonesia Wonogiri in developing numeracy competencies. The research employs a descriptive qualitative method. Data sources consist of primary and secondary data. Primary data were collected through in-depth interviews with informants who met the criteria, namely elementary school teachers in Boyolali Regency who participated in the LKP Matematika Indonesia seminar. Secondary data were obtained from various sources, such as books, journal articles, and other relevant references that support this study. The data analysis in this research follows the interactive model of Miles, Huberman, & Saldana, which includes data collection, data condensation, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The findings indicate that the implementation of the Blue Ocean Strategy by LKP Matematika Indonesia Wonogiri in numeracy training for elementary school teachers in Boyolali has generated positive perceptions. Overall, the application of the Blue Ocean Strategy in numeracy training by LKP Matematika Indonesia Wonogiri is considered an innovation with significant potential to improve elementary school teachers’ numeracy competencies in Boyolali. However, to ensure the effective implementation of this strategy, a more inclusive approach, continuous training, and adequate resource support for teachers are required
