This study examines how the transition from manual to digital services influences user satisfaction through digital service quality and user perception at the Marine and Fisheries Office of Pekalongan Regency. The research employs a mixed-methods approach, combining a quantitative survey (N = 40) using Pearson correlation analysis with qualitative interviews involving service leaders and operators. The results reveal very strong correlations between service quality, user perception, and user satisfaction, as well as the critical role of system stability and operator assistance in shaping user experience. Qualitative findings confirm that changes in work culture, leadership, and human resource adaptation are key factors in the success of digitalisation. The study implies that the success of digital public services is determined not only by technology but also by strengthening human resource capacity, simplifying service design, and providing operator support for users with low digital literacy. The limitations of this study include the small sample size, the single organisational context, and reliance on perception-based data. Future research is recommended to conduct comparative cross-agency studies, longitudinal approaches, and structural model testing to examine the mediating roles of digital literacy and operator assistance.  

This study aims to analyze the implementation of programs strengthening financial literacy, economic digitalization, and the creative economy carried out by students participating in the Community Service Program (Kuliah Kerja Nyata/KKN) in Nagori Marihat Bukit. The programs included education on the Indonesian rupiah and the importance of saving habits, socialization of the QRIS digital payment system, a workshop on striphone production to support MSME development, and an ecoprint workshop for elementary school students. The study employed a qualitative descriptive method, with data collected through participatory observation and documentation. The results indicate that the programs successfully enhanced community understanding of financial literacy from an early age, increased the adoption of digital payment technology with 68% of participants successfully implementing QRIS, and improved creative economy skills that support the development of local MSMEs. These activities demonstrate that community-based economic education can effectively strengthen financial awareness, promote digital financial inclusion, and sustainably develop the creative economic potential of the community. Therefore, this KKN program can serve as a practical model of community-based economic empowerment in fostering economically independent communities.

Economic empowerment of rural communities through the strengthening of Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) is a crucial pillar in achieving national economic independence. One of the fundamental obstacles faced by MSMEs in rural areas is financial exclusion due to low digital literacy and dependence on conventional cash transaction systems. The Community Service Program (KKN) of students from the State Islamic University of North Sumatra (UIN SU) in Pematang Tengah Village was designed to bridge this gap by optimizing the Indonesian Standard Quick Response Code (QRIS). Through an intensive participatory mentoring approach, students acted as agents of digital transformation who educated, trained, and facilitated 10 local MSME actors in adopting non-cash payment technology. The results of the program show a significant shift from digital skepticism to digital trust. The implementation of QRIS has been proven to increase operational efficiency, financial management accuracy, and strengthen the image of business modernity in the eyes of consumers. This article emphasizes that the role of students is not merely as information deliverers, but as catalysts of social capital that is crucial for the sustainability of digitalization at the village level.

This study explores the intersection of feminism and gender equality in Bali, analyzing how patriarchal norms, media portrayals, and religious customs marginalize Balinese women. Using Simone de Beauvoir’s concept of the “Other,” it examines why feminism faces resistance despite growing gender equality awareness. Through surveys and interviews with Balinese women aged 11–20, the findings reveal that many support gender equality but hesitate to identify as feminists due to cultural misconceptions and Western associations. The research highlights the need for educational initiatives and community discussions to integrate feminism into Balinese traditions, showing that culturally adapted advocacy is more effective than universalist approaches. It underscores the importance of feminist education, local leadership engagement, and promoting women’s roles within traditional structures, demonstrating that feminism and Balinese traditions can coexist without disrupting social harmony. Future research should explore generational shifts, digital media’s role in shaping perceptions, and comparative studies in other traditional societies to further bridge feminism and cultural values.

Gender-based domestic violence (KDRT) remains a critical issue in Indonesia, particularly in urban areas like North Jakarta. This study examines the governance of services for KDRT victims from a gender perspective in 2025, employing a qualitative case study approach. Data were gathered through in-depth interviews with 20 victims and service providers at community health centers (Puskesmas), the Women's Empowerment and Child Protection Agency (DP3A), and NGOs. Findings reveal fragmented governance, characterized by weak inter-agency coordination, low accessibility for low-income victims, and insufficient integration of gender perspectives in handling procedures. Key barriers include bureaucratic hurdles and inadequate training for staff on toxic masculinity issues. The study recommends an integrated governance model based on gender-responsive governance, including a one-stop digital platform and enhanced multi-stakeholder collaboration. Policy implications support the achievement of SDGs 5 and 16 at the local level. This study also highlights the importance of increasing public awareness and education regarding gender-based domestic violence to create a safer and more inclusive environment for victims.

The swift advancement of information technology has greatly influenced society, while also raising the threat of cybercrime. These offenses encompass the theft of social media accounts, unauthorized access to online information, and breaches of personal data security. This research intends to explore various types of cybercrime in Indonesia, the legal measures in place, and the obstacles law enforcement encounters when proving cybercrime incidents. The study adopts a qualitative method by reviewing literature, which includes laws, court rulings, academic articles, and reports from pertinent organizations. The findings reveal that even though laws like the Electronic Information and Transactions Law and the Personal Data Protection Law establish a legal framework, there are still issues related to digital evidence, coordination between agencies, and the public's understanding of data security. Consequently, there is a need for a more thorough law enforcement approach, enhanced digital education, and collaborative efforts among the government, law enforcement agencies, and the community to effectively combat and manage cybercrime.

Public accountability is a key principle in the implementation of good governance, particularly in fulfilling the responsibilities of local governments. One instrument of this accountability is the Regional Government Administration Report (Laporan Penyelenggaraan Pemerintahan Daerah / LPPD), which is prepared annually by regional heads and submitted to the central government. This study aims to analyze public accountability in the preparation of the LPPD in Ponorogo Regency. The research employs a descriptive qualitative approach using interviews, observations, and documentation for data collection. Informants include the LPPD preparation team at the Regional Secretariat of Ponorogo Regency and Regional Apparatus Organizations (OPD) involved in providing data. The analysis uses accountability indicators including responsiveness, debate forums, coordination, autonomy, clarity of performance evaluation standards, negotiation, accountability campaigns, evaluation and feedback, and participation and responsiveness to environmental changes. The results indicate that the preparation of the LPPD in Ponorogo Regency has followed administrative procedures and is supported by the involvement of regional agencies and a digital-based reporting system. However, its implementation remains less than optimal, particularly in terms of responsiveness of regional agencies, cross-sector coordination, public accountability campaigns, and mechanisms for public participation.

The development of digital technology and the widespread use of social media, particularly Instagram and TikTok, have opened opportunities for online interaction but also increased the risk of cyberbullying. Cyberbullying is aggressive behavior via digital media intended to harm or degrade others. One psychological factor believed to influence this behavior is emotional regulation, which is the ability to manage and express emotions appropriately in different situations. This study aims to examine the relationship between emotional regulation and cyberbullying behavior among early adult students in Jambi. A quantitative approach with a correlational design was used, involving 127 students aged 18–25 years, selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected using an online questionnaire, which included an emotional regulation scale and a cyberbullying behavior scale. Data analysis was conducted using the Pearson Product Moment correlation test with SPSS software. The results showed a significant negative relationship between emotional regulation and cyberbullying behavior, with a correlation coefficient of r = -0.632 and a significance level of p < 0.001. This indicates that students with better emotional regulation skills are less likely to engage in cyberbullying. Thus, enhancing emotional regulation skills could be an effective strategy in preventing cyberbullying among students.

This research aims to analyse the role of archives as agents of change in the digital transformation of archives and as catalysts for bureaucratic reform in the era of digital government at the Sorong City Regional Secretariat. The research used a mixed-methods approach, combining a quantitative survey of 30 respondents with in-depth interviews with five key informants, and analysed the data using correlation statistics and thematic analysis. The study's results show that the digital transformation of archives is closely linked to bureaucratic reform and digital governance, and qualitative findings confirm that digitisation improves administrative efficiency, data integration, and organisational accountability. The research highlights the importance of strengthening technological infrastructure, integrating information systems, and improving the competence of the apparatus as prerequisites for the success of the digital transformation of archives. This study has limitations in its scope, involving only one local government agency and a relatively small number of respondents. Therefore, further research is recommended to broaden the scope, incorporate public service quality variables, and use a longitudinal design to examine the long-term impact of archive digitisation on the performance of bureaucratic reform and digital governance more comprehensively. These findings also provide practical contributions for local governments in designing integrated, sustainable electronic archive management policies that support effective, transparent, and responsive public services to meet the needs of modern society in the future, as well as strengthening data-driven governance.  

This study examines the effectiveness of the Jambi Regional Police in enforcing criminal law in the digital era, particularly in addressing online gambling offences, from the perspective of Islamic law. The rapid development of information technology has transformed crime from physical spaces into cyberspace, characterised by anonymity, speed, and transnational reach, thereby requiring adaptive law enforcement strategies. This research adopts a qualitative juridical-empirical approach. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with law enforcement officers at the Jambi Regional Police, analysis of case documents, and examination of relevant legal frameworks, particularly Indonesia’s Electronic Information and Transactions Law (ITE Law). The findings reveal that the Jambi Regional Police have implemented several strategic measures in combating digital crimes, including cyber patrols, digital forensic investigations, seizure of electronic evidence, and inter-agency coordination. Nevertheless, the effectiveness of law enforcement remains constrained by technological limitations, complex digital evidence requirements, the transnational nature of cybercrime, and limited public digital legal awareness. From an Islamic law perspective, police actions against online gambling align with the objectives of maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah, particularly the protection of religion (ḥifẓ al-dīn), property (ḥifẓ al-māl), and intellect (ḥifẓ al-‘aql). This study concludes that while digital criminal law enforcement by the Jambi Regional Police is fundamentally appropriate, it requires strengthened institutional capacity, integration of Islamic legal values, and adaptive policy reforms to enhance effectiveness and substantive justice.

Digital transformation has driven significant changes in organizational management systems, thus demanding adaptive leadership and organizational agility as a key prerequisite for surviving in a dynamic environment. This study aims to analyze the relationship between adaptive leadership and organizational agility in the context of digital transformation through the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) approach. Data were obtained from accredited national journals and relevant international literature, then analyzed using thematic analysis techniques to identify patterns of relationships between variables. The results of the study show that adaptive leadership plays an important role in increasing organizational agility indirectly through strengthening organizational learning and dynamic capabilities. Organizational learning serves as the main mechanism that allows organizations to adapt through the continuous learning process, while dynamic capabilities are the link in transforming learning into strategic responses. Digital transformation accelerates the need for organizations to have a high level of agility in the face of change. In conclusion, organizational agility is the result of systemic processes influenced by adaptive leadership, organizational learning, and dynamic capabilities. This study makes a theoretical contribution to the development of the literature on leadership and strategic management in the digital age as well as practical implications for organizations in improving adaptability to the ever-changing environment.

This study investigates the direct and indirect effects of transformational leadership and digital literacy on civil servant performance through the mediating role of adaptability. The research population comprised all 75 employees at the Regional Financial Management and Local Revenue Agency (BPKPAD) of Demak Regency, Indonesia. A saturated sampling method was employed, utilizing the entire population as respondents. Primary data were collected through structured questionnaires and analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling-Partial Least Square (SEM-PLS) with SmartPLS 3.3 software. The findings reveal that transformational leadership significantly and positively influences both civil servant adaptability and performance. Digital literacy demonstrates a significant positive impact on both adaptability and performance, emerging as the most dominant factor in the research model. Civil servant adaptability significantly and positively affects performance. However, mediation analysis indicates that adaptability does not significantly mediate the relationships between transformational leadership, digital literacy, and performance, suggesting that direct effects predominate over indirect effects in the BPKPAD Demak Regency context.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the synergy of humanistic and transformational leadership in building adaptability and digital competence of civil servants in the era of digital transformation. The research uses a narrative literature review approach by analyzing various literature from leading academic databases. The findings indicate that humanistic leadership creates a psychological foundation through empathy, respect for individual dignity, and psychological safety that facilitates civil servants to adapt to change without fear of failure. Meanwhile, transformational leadership acts as a catalyst by providing inspirational vision, intellectual stimulation, and motivation to master digital competencies. The synergy of these two leadership styles creates a holistic development ecosystem: humanistic leadership provides psychological safety to take learning risks, while transformational leadership provides energy and direction for continuous innovation. The theoretical implications of this research enrich the treasury of leadership theory in the context of public bureaucracy by identifying the complementary mechanisms of both leadership styles. Practical implications provide guidance for agency leaders to integrate humanistic values and transformational approaches in HR development programs to prepare civil servants who are resilient, adaptive, and digitally competent in facing the challenges of technological disruption and increasingly complex public service demands in the Society 5.0 era.

The digital era presents various opportunities as well as challenges in the world of education, particularly in the formation of student character. The development of technology, social media, and the unlimited flow of information influence the way students think, act, and behave. This condition demands the role and responsibilities of Christian Religious Education (PAK) Teachers that are increasingly complex and strategic. This study aims to describe the responsibilities of PAK Teachers in the formation of student character in the digital era. The research method used is a qualitative method with a literature study approach. Data were collected through a review of scientific journals, academic books, and theoretical sources relevant to the research topic. The results of the study indicate that PAK Teachers are not only responsible for conveying Christian faith material, but also guiding students in internalizing and practicing Christian values such as love, honesty, responsibility, self-control, and empathy, both in real life and digitally. PAK Teachers act as educators, role models, guides, and spiritual counselors who integrate character education into the learning process. In addition, PAK Teachers are required to have adequate pedagogical, professional, personality, and social competencies, as well as the ability to utilize technology wisely. Collaboration with parents and schools is a crucial aspect in sustainably shaping students' character. Thus, Christian Religious Education teachers act as agents of transformation in shaping a generation with Christian character ready to face the challenges of the digital era.

Digital transformation has become a central agenda in local governments seeking to improve the effectiveness, accessibility, and reliability of public service delivery, particularly in population administration services that constitute the legal foundation of citizenship. In Indonesia, the Surabaya City Government has implemented the Klampid New Generation (KNG) program as an integrated digital platform for population administration services, aiming to streamline civil registration processes, enhance service quality, and expand citizen access. Despite its technological ambition, the implementation of digital population administration services continues to face persistent challenges related to administrative capacity, especially at the municipal level where services are operationalized and directly experienced by citizens. This issue raises an urgent academic and practical question regarding how administrative capacity shapes the performance and sustainability of digital public services within the broader digital government transformation. This article aims to synthesize and critically evaluate the existing scholarly literature on administrative capacity in the implementation of digital population administration services, with analytical relevance to the KNG program in Surabaya City Government. Employing an integrative literature review design, the study systematically examines peer-reviewed journal articles published between 2021 and 2025, retrieved from Scopus, DOAJ, Google Scholar, and SINTA databases. Articles were selected based on predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria and analyzed using thematic and conceptual synthesis techniques. The review identifies key dimensions of administrative capacity that consistently influence digital service implementation, including institutional and organizational arrangements, human resource competence, technological and infrastructural readiness, regulatory and procedural alignment, inter-organizational coordination, and the role of street-level bureaucrats in frontline service delivery.

This research is motivated by the problem of inefficient manual recording of employee attendance at the Central Papua Provincial Bawaslu, which often causes errors and inaccurate attendance data.

The research methods include needs analysis, database and interface design, program code implementation, and system testing. The results of the study show that the digital attendance system developed has succeeded in facilitating the recording of entry times, exit times, and recapitulation of employee attendance with a higher level of accuracy than manual methods. The implications of the implementation of this system are increased administrative efficiency, ease of monitoring, and the provision of more valid attendance data to support fast and appropriate decision-making within the Central Papua Provincial Bawaslu. Thus, this digital attendance system can be a practical solution in improving the quality of human resource management in government agencies.

Digital transformation of government through the implementation of e-government has become a strategic agenda in bureaucratic reform in Indonesia. Local governments play a crucial role as a bridge between national policies and village governance practices. This article analyzes the implementation of e-government by the Batang Regency Government in support of village governance. This research uses a qualitative approach and a policy analysis method, based on literature reviews and official documents, including regional regulations, SPBE policies, and relevant institutional reports. The analysis was conducted using a theoretical framework of public policy implementation and the principles of good governance. The analysis results indicate that the Batang Regency Government has a relatively adequate e-government regulatory and institutional framework, but its implementation at the village level still faces challenges, including gaps in apparatus capacity, variations in village digital readiness, and suboptimal cross-organizational coordination. This article concludes that strengthening the role of local governments as facilitators, coaches, and coordinators of digital policies is key to the successful implementation of village e-government. These findings provide theoretical contributions to e-government studies and policy implementation, as well as practical implications for formulating local government digital policies.
