The UPZ, guided by BAZNAS, holds a strategic role in reinforcing the zakat management system at the village level and has the potential to become an effective instrument for community economic empowerment.

This study investigates the relationship between corporate governance characteristics, financial structure, and Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) disclosure in Indonesian non-financial firms. Focusing on manufacturing companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange in 2023, the analysis examines whether board size, the proportion of independent commissioners, and leverage influence the extent of ERM disclosure. Using a quantitative approach, multiple linear regression is applied to secondary data obtained from firms’ annual reports. The findings indicate that board size and the proportion of independent commissioners do not have a significant effect on ERM disclosure, while leverage exhibits a positive and significant relationship. This result suggests that firms with higher debt levels are more inclined to enhance risk disclosure as a mechanism to address information asymmetry and demonstrate accountability to investors and creditors. The study contributes to the ERM and corporate governance literature by providing evidence from an emerging market setting and highlighting the practical importance of financial structure in shaping risk transparency, offering relevant insights for corporate decision-makers and regulators to strengthen sustainable risk management practices.

Antenatal Care (ANC) is a health service provided to pregnant women during pregnancy by healthcare professionals in accordance with established standards, one of which is the implementation of the 10T ANC service components. The quality of ANC services plays an important role in determining pregnant women’s satisfaction, which in turn affects their compliance with antenatal visits and the effectiveness of pregnancy monitoring. Maternal satisfaction is an essential indicator for assessing the quality of healthcare services at primary healthcare facilities. This study aimed to examine the relationship between 10T Antenatal Care services and pregnant women’s satisfaction at Biru-Biru Public Health Center in 2025. This research employed a quantitative method with an analytical design using a cross-sectional approach. The sample was selected through purposive sampling, involving 48 third-trimester pregnant women. Data were collected using questionnaires that assessed the implementation of 10T ANC services and the level of maternal satisfaction. The collected data were analyzed statistically to determine the relationship between the variables. The findings of this study are expected to provide insights into the importance of optimal implementation of 10T ANC standards. Therefore, healthcare providers, particularly midwives, are encouraged to continuously improve the quality of ANC services to enhance pregnant women’s satisfaction and support efforts to improve maternal and child health outcomes.

This study conducts a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) of 20 empirical and conceptual articles published between 2020 and 2025 to examine the influence of city branding on tourism interest and consumer behavior, with a particular focus on the city of Balikpapan. The synthesis reveals that city branding significantly shapes tourist perceptions through key elements such as destination image, brand identity, brand personality, and digital communication. Destination image consistently emerges as the primary mediator linking city branding to visit intention, while experiential and emotional branding further strengthen tourists’ cognitive, affective, and behavioral responses. The findings also highlight the growing importance of digital media and e-WOM in amplifying city branding strategies, especially in the post-pandemic tourism landscape. Despite strong branding potential rooted in cleanliness, safety, and Balikpapan’s strategic role as a supporting city for the new capital (IKN), gaps remain in digital branding, differentiation, and identity storytelling. The review emphasizes the need for more integrated, innovative, and data-driven branding approaches to enhance the city’s competitiveness and attract greater tourism engagement.

In social life, buying and selling are fundamental mechanisms for transferring rights, beginning with an agreement. According to Articles 1313 and 1338 of the Indonesian Civil Code, agreements are legally binding acts with the force of law for the parties involved. One high-value transaction is the sale and purchase of apartment units, which involves developers as sellers. In practice, developers often fail to deliver units within the agreed timeframe. This study examines (1) the developer’s responsibility toward buyers when units are not delivered and (2) the legal protection available for buyers under such circumstances. The research applies Hans Kelsen’s Theory of Responsibility and Satjipto Rahardjo’s Theory of Legal Protection, using a normative juridical method based on library research. Primary, secondary, and tertiary legal materials were analyzed through statutory, conceptual, analytical, and case approaches, employing grammatical and systematic interpretation, legal analogy, and legal refinement. Findings reveal that developers are primarily responsible for delivering fully paid units. Failure to fulfill this obligation, due to breach of contract or negligence, triggers legal liability in the form of performance or compensation. Legal protection for buyers ensures their rights are safeguarded, and even in cases of developer negligence or bankruptcy, consumers are legally entitled to receive the apartment units they have purchased.

The transformation of the post-pandemic education system has crystallized online learning as a permanent component, with parents assuming an unprecedented instructional role at the elementary level, particularly at Madrasah Ibtidaiyah (MI). This qualitative case study aims to analyze in depth the dynamics and implications of the role of these parents during the transition period. Data was collected through in-depth interviews with parents, students, and teachers from two MIs in Blora, enriched by observation and analysis of communication documents. The findings of the study reveal three crucial things: first, there is a transformation of the role of parents into "substitute teachers" which creates a significant psychological burden due to the gap between the demands of the role and pedagogical capacity. Second, the communication pattern between schools and parents is still one-way and administrative, and has not built a collaborative three-way partnership by involving students. Third, the quality of parental assistance is very diverse and highly dependent on their digital literacy capacity and educational background, which directly affects the development of students' self-regulated learning. This study concludes that the effectiveness of parental roles is determined by psycho-educational support, the quality of communication channels, and the level of personal capacity, so policy implications must move towards a differentiated and empowerment-oriented approach.
