The livestock sector in Gowa Regency, South Sulawesi, has great potential but is often threatened by outbreaks of Foot and Mouth Disease (FMD), which cause significant economic losses. This study aims to evaluate the FMD control policies implemented by the Gowa Regency Government based on William Dunn's six policy evaluation criteria: effectiveness, efficiency, adequacy, equity, responsiveness, and accuracy. The study used a qualitative approach with primary data collected through in-depth interviews with key informants from the Livestock and Animal Health Division of the Gowa Regency Livestock and Plantation Service and supporting data from various literature. The findings show that the FMD control policy is effective in achieving zero cases, but efficiency is hampered by limited medical personnel (only two veterinarians) and operational budget dependence entirely on the Central Government. Vaccine adequacy is a pull sistem (demand-driven) and compensation distribution is carried out fairly. Community responsiveness increased after severe losses, and policy accuracy was considered most optimal in the implementation of biosecurity and sanitation while promoting vaccination. As a recommendation, the Gowa Government needs to recruit contract workers in the field of animal health, allocate funds for the procurement of operational vehicles and equipment to support laboratory facilities, and issue a Regent Regulation that strictly regulates the implementation of biosecurity and livestock housing patterns in high-risk areas.

This study aims to analyze the definition and concept map of Islamic Education (IPI) within the philosophical framework of Prof. Dr. Hasan Langgulung. IPI is strategically positioned as a discipline that bridges theoretical studies and educational practices in responding to contemporary challenges, while also serving as a foundation for character formation. The method used is library research with a qualitative approach, analyzing primary and secondary documents to synthesize a complete IPI concept map. The results of the study show that Langgulung defines IPI comprehensively as a normative field of science, exploring the process of multi-dimensional human growth (physical, soul, mind, spirit), and utilizing integrative sources of knowledge (revelation, reason, experience). This approach is based on three solid philosophical pillars: Ontology (human nature and fitrah), Epistemology (integration of revelation, reason, and experience), and Axiology (utility values to form a perfect human being). Langgulung's thinking elevates the discussion of IPI from the operational level (Tarbiyah, Ta'lim, Ta'dib) to the philosophical level, providing a solid foundation for IPI as a complete discipline.The ultimate goal is to produce a perfect human being capable of fulfilling the balanced roles of 'Abdullah (servant of God) and Khalifatullah fil Ardh (leader on earth), by optimizing the full potential of human nature. This educational model is considered relevant in contemporary discourse to integrate religious and general knowledge and address the moral crisis.
