This study analyzes the implementation of Asset-Based Community Development (ABCD) principles in the 'Nusa Loe' program in Biting Village, East Manggarai. The ABCD approach emphasizes utilizing local assets such as social networks, cultural traditions, natural resources, and human skills as the foundation for sustainable development and community independence. The program begins with an asset mapping activity led by the community, enabling the identification of the village's strengths from five key aspects: human, social, natural, institutional, and cultural assets. Through active participation, the community designs and implements development activities based on local potentials, replacing the conventional development paradigm that focuses on deficiencies and needs. The qualitative research approach employs in-depth interviews, participatory observations, and data triangulation to understand the shifts in mindset and community empowerment. The findings show that the implementation of ABCD successfully transformed the community's mindset, previously dependent on external aid, into a more independent and self-confident one. For example, Mr. Petrus, who improved the economic value of local coffee products after attending a coffee roasting training, and Mrs. Maria, who emphasized the importance of social capital and solidarity in supporting the sustainability of village businesses. The strengthening of cultural assets and local traditions, such as the Caci dance and customary rituals, was also integrated into the village's development plans and institutional management. The 'Nusa Loe' program demonstrates that asset-based empowerment can build a self-reliant, innovative, and sustainable village in the face of development challenges.

This study explores the dissemination of Sufi teachings through the TikTok account @Al.Amiin.id, highlighting how visual aesthetics, symbolism, and narrative techniques play a role in conveying spiritual messages to young audiences in the digital era. Using a qualitative approach with a critical case study strategy, this research analyses how elements such as colour, light, music, and spiritual metaphors are combined with reflective emotional narratives to preserve the depth of Sufi teachings. Drawing on Stig Hjarvard’s perspective on the mediatization of Religion, the study examines how social media not only functions as a channel for message dissemination but also reshapes religious practices and experiences. The findings reveal that @Al.Amiin.id successfully utilises the logic of digital media—such as short duration, visual aesthetics, algorithms, and trends—as instruments to present Sufism in the form of personal and easily comprehensible micro-narratives. This strategy demonstrates that Sufi preaching undergoes a process of mediatization, in which spiritual values are not merely transmitted but also reconstructed to align with the consumption patterns and cultural sensibilities of digital generations. The study further emphasises that despite the risks of commodification and simplification, Sufi preaching on social media can still preserve its spiritual depth through adaptive approaches. This research contributes to the study of how religious practices are transformed by digital media, offering a model of Sufi preaching that is communicative, inclusive, and relevant in the era of algorithms.

Despite these advantages, challenges such as user resistance, digital literacy, infrastructure issues, and system integration remain. This research employs descriptive-analytical methods, combining interviews, observations, and documentation, to analyze the effectiveness of e-SDM implementation. The findings indicate that digitalization has streamlined leave management, minimized administrative burdens, and improved data accuracy. Moreover, it fosters a fairer and more transparent work environment, reinforcing good governance principles and supporting Surabaya's vision to become a smart city. The research underscores the importance of technological adaptation within bureaucratic reforms and offers strategic recommendations for further system improvements. Overall, the successful adoption of e-SDM in Gubeng serves as a model for digital transformation in public service delivery, contributing to more efficient, transparent, and accountable governance in local government institutions.

This study examines the implementation of Green Disaster Management (GDM) policies by the Surabaya City Disaster Management Agency (BPBD) as a means to enhance disaster resilience through environmental sustainability. The research analyzes the integration of GDM principles across all phases of the disaster cycle pre-disaster, during response, and post-disaster recovery. Data was collected through in-depth interviews with key informants, participant observation, and document analysis at BPBD and pilot project sites, including mangrove conservation areas, green emergency posts, and eco-friendly reconstruction sites. The findings indicate that Surabaya has demonstrated significant commitment to embedding sustainability into disaster management through community education, environmentally friendly logistics, and eco-based mitigation measures. Nonetheless, challenges persist, such as limited funding, resistance from developers, logistical constraints, and societal perceptions favoring immediate response over environmental considerations. During disaster response, innovations such as solar-powered emergency equipment and waste segregation practices are being adopted, but their widespread application remains hampered by resource limitations. Post-disaster, efforts in eco-friendly reconstruction and reforestation programs have shown promising results but require enhanced public awareness and long-term maintenance. The success of GDM implementation depends on effective inter-agency coordination, political commitment, and community engagement. Despite progress, hurdles related to budget constraints, social resistance, and knowledge gaps fully hinder the adoption of green approaches. This study highlights the importance of strategic collaboration, policy support, and community participation to mainstream sustainability in disaster management continuously. Strengthening these aspects will not only improve Surabaya's disaster resilience but also contribute to sustainable urban development aligned with global frameworks such as the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction.

Halal tourism has continued to grow as a highly attractive segment for Muslim travelers, particularly in the provision of Sharia-compliant accommodation such as Islamic hotels. This study aims to examine consumer perceptions of halal food-and-beverage facilities and Sharia-based operational standards in Islamic hotels across the Greater Jakarta area (Jabodetabek). A descriptive quantitative approach was employed, involving 150 respondents who had stayed in Sharia hotels. Data were collected through closed-ended Likert-scale questionnaires and analyzed using the Weighted Mean Score (WMS) technique to evaluate respondents’ assessments of each indicator. The results indicate that consumer perception of halal food-and-beverage facilities falls into the very high category, with average scores exceeding 4.838. Consumers acknowledged that Sharia hotels maintain halal assurance, hygiene, and food safety through proper processing and the availability of halal certification. Regarding operational aspects, consumer perception is also classified as very good, with an average score of 4.606, particularly for policies prohibiting unmarried couples from sharing a room and banning entertainment deemed inappropriate or immoral. However, the use of Sharia-compliant financial institutions still requires improvement. Overall, the findings affirm that Sharia hotels in Jabodetabek have successfully implemented most Sharia principles, although further enhancement of internal operational practices is needed to achieve more comprehensive Sharia compliance.

This study analyzes the role of constitutional courts in maintaining the rule of law through a comparative study between the Constitutional Court of Indonesia and the Federal Constitutional Court of Germany (Bundesverfassungsgericht). Using a juridical-normative approach with comparative methods, the research examines legal documents, court decisions, and academic literature related to the rule of law and constitutionalism. Secondary data were sourced from scientific journals, laws, and key court decisions, including the Lüth Case (1958), Brokdorf Case (1985), and Lisbon Treaty Case (2009) in Germany, as well as Indonesia's Constitutional Court Decision No. 91/PUU-XVIII/2020 on the Job Creation Law. The study shows that both countries consider the constitution as the highest norm and position their constitutional courts as guardians of the rule of law. However, Germany’s court enjoys high compliance, whereas Indonesia faces challenges due to weak legal culture, political intervention, and low integrity in law enforcement. The German court has developed the living constitution doctrine, while Indonesia remains more formalistic and reactive. This study concludes that the success of constitutional courts depends on institutional independence, compliance by state institutions, and a societal legal culture that respects the constitution.

However, the existing literature reveals diverse approaches and outcomes, necessitating a more comprehensive synthesisThis research seeks to analyze the influence of quality. management in improving organizational performance, customer satisfaction, and sustainability. Using a qualitative literature review method, the search process was conducted through Google Scholar and the Publish or Perish application with the keyword “Customer Satisfaction.” From the initial 30 articles published between 2020 and 2025, 27 were screened and validated, and 5 core articles were selected for in-depth analysis. The findings reveal three major insights. First, the implementation of Total Quality Management (TQM) enhances organizational culture, performance, and competitiveness. Second, quality management in the fisheries sector plays a vital role in water quality control, supporting successful production outcomes. Third, product and service quality emerge as dominant factors influencing customer satisfaction and loyalty. In conclusion, quality management serves as a fundamental and cross-sectoral strategy that strengthens organizational performance and sustainability. Future studies are encouraged to explore the integration of quality management with digital transformation and environmental sustainability to develop more adaptive and resilient management models suited to the evolving global context.

This study aims to analyze how the government policy of Mojokerto City is implemented to support the empowerment of shoe SMEs and to identify the factors influencing the success or failure of the policy. The method used in this research is a qualitative approach with data collection techniques through in-depth interviews, field observations, and documentation. Data was collected from shoe SMEs, relevant government officials, and supporting institutions. Data analysis was conducted using Edwards III's public policy implementation theory, which includes four indicators: communication, bureaucratic structure, resources, and implementer disposition. The findings of this study show that although the policy for empowering shoe SMEs has had a positive impact in several areas, such as improving product quality and marketing awareness, there are still barriers in terms of inter-institutional coordination, access to funding, and human resource quality. The conclusion of this study is that the implementation of the shoe SME empowerment policy in Mojokerto City can succeed with improvements in more effective communication, better coordination between institutions, and strengthening the resources needed by SMEs. Recommendations for the local government include simplifying administrative procedures, increasing access to funding, and enhancing entrepreneurship training relevant to the needs of shoe SMEs. Therefore, this policy is expected to have a greater impact on competitiveness and the local economy.

This study aims to analyze the transformation of the educational pattern at the Indonesian Naval Academy (AAL) from a four-year to a three-year system and its impact on graduate competencies and operational readiness. This educational system change responds to budget efficiency needs and accelerated officer formation filling, yet raises questions about the new system's ability to maintain the quality of officer education. The research employs a mixed methods approach with a concurrent embedded design, involving 250 respondents comprising graduates from both educational systems, AAL instructors, and unit commanders receiving graduates. Quantitative data were collected through structured questionnaires and analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics (independent sample t-test and regression), while qualitative data were obtained through in-depth interviews, observations, and document studies analyzed using thematic analysis. Results indicate no significant difference in overall Grade Point Average (GPA) between the two groups (p=0.470), but significant differences in competency patterns emerged: four-year system graduates excelled in theoretical competencies (p=0.001), while three-year system graduates excelled in practical competencies (p=0.003). Operational readiness evaluation shows that four-year system graduates obtained higher scores (82.5) compared to three-year system graduates (78.3), with significant differences (p=0.012), particularly in strategic leadership and complex decision-making aspects. Qualitative analysis identified five major themes: high learning time pressure, orientation shift from comprehensive to pragmatic, gaps in character formation and corps values, concerns about theoretical understanding depth, and need for more intensive post-graduation mentoring programs. This study concludes that educational time compression successfully increased operational efficiency but involved trade-offs in learning depth and professional maturity. To optimize the three-year educational system, a comprehensive approach is required, including curriculum revision with integrated learning methods, utilization of modern learning technology, strengthening of leadership development programs, and development of continuous professional mentoring systems. The recommendations of this research are expected to provide input for AAL and the Indonesian Navy in refining the officer education system to produce officers who are not only technically competent but also mature in leadership and strong in character.

This meta-analysis provides an in-depth examination of the effectiveness of community-based interventions in alleviating collective trauma experienced by populations in conflict zones of the Middle East, compiling 47 empirical studies (N = 12,483) published between 2000 and 2023. The synthesis indicates a significant impact of community-based interventions on reducing PTSD symptoms, with a substantial effect size (d = 0.82, 95% CI [0.76, 0.88], p < .001) and moderate heterogeneity (I² = 68%), reflecting inter-study variation yet remaining within interpretable bounds. Among the strategies analysed, community psychosocial support programs demonstrated the most pronounced effectiveness (β = 0.74, p < .001), followed by collective narrative therapy (β = 0.68, p < .001) and family-based rehabilitation interventions (β = 0.59, p < .001), all underscoring the relevance of approaches rooted in social networks and interpersonal relations. Moderator analyses revealed that longer program duration, particularly interventions spanning at least 6 months (β = 0.71, p < .001), and active engagement of local leaders (β = 0.65, p < .001) were critical determinants of intervention success. Furthermore, meta-regression findings indicated a strong and consistent correlation between the intensity of community involvement and reductions in collective trauma symptoms (R² = 0.73, p < .001), highlighting that social participation is not merely complementary but constitutes the foundation of program efficacy. In the researchers' view, these findings extend the contributions of prior studies by Hassan et al. (2016) and Morrison & Marrison (2024) by affirming the central role of local wisdom in trauma recovery processes, while offering a conceptual contribution in the form of an integrative framework that merges psychosocial interventions with community cultural values. Consequently, these results provide not only an empirical basis for developing more effective trauma-healing programs in Middle Eastern conflict zones but also underscore the urgency of contextual adaptation to ensure that interventions meet the most essential needs of affected populations.

This study analyzes the influence of Service Quality, Facilities, Supervision, and Effectiveness on Parking Levies (Retribusi Parkir) in Blitar City. Motivated by the Blitar City Transportation Agency's failure to meet its 2022 Local Own-Source Revenue (PAD) target from parking levies, this quantitative study employs Multiple Linear Regression (MLR) on a sample of 100 parking service users. Classical assumption tests confirm the regression model is normally distributed and free from multicollinearity and heteroscedasticity issues. Partially, all independent variables Service Quality (\beta=0.38), Facilities (\beta=0.200), Supervision (\beta=0.331), and Effectiveness (\beta=0.329) were found to have a positive and significant effect on Parking Levies. The Adjusted R Square value of 86.8% indicates a high predictive power of the model. Crucially, the findings highlight that Supervision and Effectiveness factors, reflecting internal governance and regulatory enforcement, are the primary determinants of successful parking levy collection, surpassing the influence of direct Facilities and Service Quality. The implications suggest a need for governance reform focusing on strict supervision and digitalization to mitigate revenue leakage.
