Perubahan iklim menjadi tantangan besar bagi Indonesia yang menuntut keterlibatan berbagai aktor lintas sektor dalam upaya mitigasi dan adaptasi. Program Kampung Iklim (ProKlim) hadir sebagai pendekatan berbasis komunitas, namun implementasinya masih terkendala minimnya keterlibatan sektor swasta secara sistematis serta terbatasnya koordinasi antaraktor. Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis peran sektor swasta dalam implementasi ProKlim di Kampung Kayu Ara Permai menggunakan kerangka collaborative governance. Metode yang digunakan adalah kualitatif deskriptif melalui wawancara mendalam, observasi partisipatif, dan studi dokumentasi dengan validitas triangulasi sumber dan metode. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa sektor swasta menjalankan peran strategis sebagai fasilitator, enabler, penyedia sumber daya, mediator, dan pelaksana kegiatan lapangan. Keterlibatan aktor seperti PHR, CIFOR, SPLP, dan PT ITA berdampak positif secara lingkungan, sosial, ekonomi, dan kelembagaan. Namun, dominasi sektor swasta berpotensi menimbulkan ketergantungan jika tidak diimbangi dengan penguatan kapasitas masyarakat lokal. Penelitian ini merekomendasikan keseimbangan peran antaraktor dan integrasi yang lebih baik dengan kebijakan pemerintah daerah guna menjamin keberlanjutan program jangka panjang.

This study aims to examine the role of the government in implementing gender political education in schools in Bengkulu Province. Within the context of Indonesia's national education system, gender equality remains a crucial issue that requires sustained attention, particularly in formal educational institutions. As the primary policymaker, the government plays a strategic role in ensuring that educational policies, curricula, teaching practices, and school environments promote the principles of gender equality and inclusiveness. This research employs a library research method by reviewing various scientific publications, policy documents, laws and regulations, government reports, and relevant academic sources related to gender and education. The findings reveal that the government has introduced several regulations and programs to support gender-responsive education and enhance equal opportunities for all students. However, the implementation of these policies in schools across Bengkulu Province continues to face significant challenges. These include limited teacher competence in gender-sensitive instruction, inadequate availability of gender-responsive learning materials, insufficient monitoring and evaluation mechanisms, and the persistence of patriarchal cultural values that influence educational practices. Therefore, this study recommends strengthening policy implementation, providing continuous gender-based teacher training, developing inclusive learning resources, and integrating gender political education into local curriculum content to promote greater gender awareness and equality in schools throughout Bengkulu Province.

This study describes Islamic public and social finance: the role and mechanisms of government oversight of economic activities from an Islamic perspective. The purpose of this study is to explain Islamic public and social finance: the role and mechanisms of government oversight of economic activities from an Islamic perspective. The research method is qualitative. Data analysis was conducted using thematic analysis techniques through the stages of data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions. This research finds that the government's role from an Islamic public and social finance perspective is not only as a regulator but also as an active supervisor, ensuring that economic activities are run in accordance with Sharia principles. Supervisory mechanisms are implemented through the institution of hisbah (Islamic tax), Sharia-based regulations, and a system of public financial accountability and transparency. Furthermore, Islamic social finance instruments such as zakat (alms), infaq (donations), sedekah (charity), and waqf (endowments) have been proven to play a role in equitable wealth distribution and reducing social inequality. This supervisory concept remains relevant in the modern economic context, including the digital sector and Sharia finance. The implications of this research suggest that the government needs to strengthen the implementation of Islamic-based supervision in the modern economic system by strengthening Sharia financial institutions, optimizing the management of Islamic social funds, and enhancing transparent and accountable regulations. Furthermore, adaptation of Islamic supervisory mechanisms is necessary to address the development of the digital economy. This research also implies the importance of increasing Sharia economic literacy among the public to support the creation of a more sustainable and equitable economic system.

The development of information technology encourages government agencies to switch from manual systems to digital systems that are more efficient and accurate. One important aspect of office administration is recording the absence of village officials, which is often done conventionally so it is prone to errors, data manipulation, and takes longer in the recapitulation process. Based on these problems, this research designs and implements a Qr-Code based attendance system at the Palatta Village Government Office. The design of this system is to provide a faster, more accurate and transparent attendance solution by utilizing Qr-Code technology which is integrated into a web-based application. The system is built with main features such as user login, Qr-Code scanning, attendance history, as well as an admin dashboard to manage data and generate reports. The results of implementation and testing using the Black Box method show that all functions run as required. Testing on users also shows that the system is easy to use, speeds up the attendance process, and helps admins in monitoring and recapitulating data. Thus, this Qr-Code attendance system is suitable to be implemented as a substitute for manual methods to increase work efficiency and discipline in the village office environment.

This study examines the role of local governments in improving the quality of public services as part of an initiative to achieve responsive governance that prioritizes the public interest. This study departs from the limitations of previous research, which tends to focus on the technical aspects of service quality, while the strategic role of local governments as the primary actors in improving the quality of public services remains underexplored. The purpose of this study is to analyze the role of local governments in improving the quality of public services and identify factors influencing the optimization of this role. The method used in this study is a qualitative approach through a literature review analyzing various secondary sources such as scientific books, national and international journals, regulations, and reports from relevant official institutions. The study findings indicate that local governments play a significant role in improving the quality of public services through three main dimensions: a community-focused service orientation, technology-based service innovation, and strengthening inclusive and collaborative service management. The integration of these three dimensions supports more efficient, transparent, and responsive public services to community needs. This research provides a conceptual contribution to the field of public administration, emphasizing the importance of strengthening the role of local governments as a key factor in sustainably improving the quality of public services.

This study aims to examine the role of the Village Government in enforcing customary law sanctions of Wake Uru Sorong Tada and to analyze the effectiveness of its implementation in Heo Puat Village, Hewokloang District, Sikka Regency. Wake Uru Sorong Tada is a form of customary law that functions as a traditional prohibition to regulate and protect community ownership of agricultural products and commodities. This research employs a qualitative descriptive method. Data were collected through observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation involving key informants such as the village head, Village Consultative Body members, traditional leaders, and community members. Data analysis was conducted using the interactive model proposed by Miles and Huberman, which includes data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings reveal that the Heo Puat Village Government plays an active role as a facilitator, mediator, and guarantor in enforcing customary sanctions in accordance with Village Regulation Number 2 of 2009. The village government does not directly determine the sanctions but collaborates closely with customary institutions in resolving violations. The enforcement of Wake Uru Sorong Tada customary law sanctions is considered effective in maintaining social order, security, and a sense of safety in property ownership among community members. The strict and binding nature of customary sanctions has significantly increased legal awareness and minimized social conflicts within the village.

The Community Forestry Program (HKm) aims to empower communities around forest areas through sustainable forest management while improving local welfare. However, in Londerang Village, Kumpeh District, the program faces challenges, particularly regarding the limited attention from village government in managing the Bumi Indah Sejahtera Farmer Group Association (KTH). This study examines the role of village government in HKm governance using qualitative methods with a case study approach. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with village officials, KTH members, community representatives, and UPTD KPHP XIII Muaro Jambi, complemented by observation and document analysis. The findings reveal that village government plays four key roles based on Ryaas Rasyid's theory: as regulator through policy formulation and supervision, as dynamizer by encouraging community participation and resolving conflicts, as facilitator by providing access to permits and infrastructure, and as catalyst by initiating program development and innovation. However, coordination between village government and KTH remains suboptimal, limiting program effectiveness. This research contributes to understanding local governance in natural resource management and provides practical recommendations for strengthening village government capacity in implementing community-based forestry programs.

Human resource quality serves as a crucial pillar for national development, as it significantly influences a country’s progress and competitiveness. Therefore, enhancing human resource capacity has become a strategic priority, particularly at the regional level where local governments play a vital role. The Government of Bojonegoro Regency has introduced several initiatives to support this objective, including the Ten Scholars per Village Scholarship Program, the Scientist Scholarship, and Final Project Assistance. Despite these efforts, several implementation challenges remain, such as cases of manipulated eligibility requirements among applicants, the absence of a digitized system for registration and document submission, and limited communication channels between program administrators and scholarship recipients. This research seeks to examine, explain, and evaluate the role of local government, especially the Education Office, in executing scholarship programs based on the theoretical framework of government roles as regulator, dynamizer, and facilitator. The study employs a descriptive qualitative method, utilizing observation, interviews, and documentation for data collection, followed by data analysis using the Miles and Huberman model. The findings reveal that although the local government has begun implementing scholarship programs, the execution is not fully effective. Supervision during participant selection focuses mainly on administrative completeness rather than document authenticity. Furthermore, direct outreach activities are limited to certain regions, coordination with village authorities remains minimal, and digital transformation has yet to be realized due to unsuccessful collaboration with the Communication and Information Agency despite several coordination meetings.

Digital media is currently the main key to public communication to convey aspirations in government policies. Medan is also one of the major cities in Indonesia that is striving to realize the concept of a smart city through digital media. The role of digital media is very important in realizing a smart city. This study aims to analyze how digital media plays a role in uniting the views of the community and the Medan city government in the effort to realize a smart city in Medan. The method used in this study is a qualitative descriptive approach with a library research approach and observation of digital communication activities, online news, and public statements from the government to the public in Medan. In realizing a smart city, optimizing digital communication is essential to strengthen the synergy between the community and the government. The results of the study indicate that digital media plays a crucial role as a means of two-way communication, information dissemination, and as a medium for public participation. However, challenges such as weak digital literacy and limited infrastructure are obstacles to the sustainability of this effort.

The rapid development of digital technology has encouraged local governments to reform public service delivery in order to become more effective, transparent, and responsive to community needs. Pandeglang Regency, as a region that is gradually implementing digital-based public service innovations, faces both challenges and opportunities in this transformation process. This study aims to analyze the role of local government in improving public services through digital innovation in Pandeglang Regency by examining the forms of innovation implemented, the implementation process, and the perceived impacts on the community. This research employed a qualitative descriptive approach, with data collected through in-depth interviews, observations, and document analysis. The findings indicate that the local government plays a crucial role in promoting digital innovation through policy formulation, institutional coordination, and the provision of supporting resources. The implementation of digital innovation has contributed to improved service efficiency, increased access to information, and enhanced service transparency. However, the effectiveness of these innovations remains uneven due to limitations in human resource capacity and varying levels of digital literacy among citizens. The implications of this study suggest that successful digital innovation in public services requires sustained commitment from local governments, continuous capacity building for public officials, and inclusive service strategies to ensure that the benefits of digital transformation are equitably experienced across different segments of society.

The 21st century is marked by a profound transformation in digital communication. Social media has become a new public space, enabling people to interact, disseminate information, and shape public opinion rapidly and massively. This article analyzes the role of social media in shaping public opinion and its influence on the dynamics of government policy in Indonesia. Through a literature review and case analysis of policies influenced by viral issues on social media, this study finds that social media increases citizen participation and accelerates government responses to public issues. However, the pattern of 'viral-based policy' also carries risks, such as reactive policies, a lack of evidence-based policies, and inequality in representation. To manage this phenomenon, the government needs to develop an inclusive digital communication strategy, establish an early detection system for public sentiment, and uphold the principles of good governance and evidence-based policy. These findings are relevant for academics and policymakers seeking to understand the interaction between social media, public opinion, and government policy in the digital era.

This article examines the typology and classification of regional government apparatus in Indonesia by analyzing their structure and functions within local governance. The study draws on recent theoretical literature (2020–2025) and legal frameworks to map how different types of regional apparatus such as executive agencies (“dinas”), supporting agencies (“badan daerah”), secretariat, inspectorate, and territorial units are organized and classified. Using a normative-juridical and conceptual approach, the paper reviews relevant laws, regulations, and academic studies to identify patterns of structural typology and functional differentiation within local governments. The findings reveal that many local governments still apply structural-heavy models rather than functionally tailored organizations, leading to excessive bureaucracy and inefficiency. The analysis suggests that a clearer classification aligned with functional roles can improve governance effectiveness and administrative efficiency. The article concludes by recommending that local governments re-evaluate their organizational structures to better reflect the functional needs of governance, rather than merely replicate structural models.                                                               

One of Indonesia’s key strategies for generating foreign exchange is the development of Tourism Villages. A Tourism Village refers to a rural area that is utilized as a recreational destination due to its natural beauty, cultural uniqueness, and local attractions that appeal to tourists. The development of Tourism Villages inevitably involves the Village Government as the main authority in village administration. Tourism Village development is an integral part of community empowerment, as it encourages local residents to actively participate in village development activities. Through effective empowerment programs, the Village Government can enhance community capacity, increase economic opportunities, and strengthen local potential in a sustainable manner. This study employs a qualitative research approach. The qualitative research process involves several important stages, including formulating research questions, applying appropriate research procedures, collecting specific data from participants, analyzing data inductively from particular themes to broader patterns, and interpreting the meaning of the findings. Using this approach, the study reveals that the role of the Village Government is crucial in planning, managing, and supporting Tourism Village development. Strong leadership, community involvement, and strategic empowerment initiatives are essential factors in ensuring the successful and sustainable development of Tourism Villages in Indonesia.

This Development Project aims to analyze and formulate strategies for improving the performance of Human Resources (HR) among village officials in the Pangkalan Lunang Village Government by applying the SWOT analysis approach. The performance of village officials plays a crucial role in implementing various village development programs, as they serve as the front line in carrying out government policies. This project employs a qualitative method with data collection techniques including in-depth interviews, observations, and document studies. The SWOT analysis results indicate that village officials in Pangkalan Lunang Village possess several strengths, such as high dedication and a strong understanding of their duties and responsibilities. However, they also face weaknesses such as limited training opportunities and low managerial capacity. The analysis further reveals several opportunities that can be leveraged, including government policy support and available training programs, as well as challenges like low community participation in village development activities. Based on these findings, this Development Project proposes strategies to enhance the performance of village officials, including capacity building through regular training, increasing community participation, and strengthening coordination among related institutions. It is expected that the proposed strategies will improve the efficiency and effectiveness of village officials’ performance in supporting development in Pangkalan Lunang Village.

This research analyzes the strategic role of the Non-Governmental Intermediary (NGI) in bridging farmers and the government to accelerate the implementation of Agrarian Reform (RA) in Indonesia. Sharp agrarian inequality, driven by colonial legacy, land control by corporations/elites, and slow RA due to bureaucratic complexity, overlapping authorities, and information gaps, creates an urgent need for new collaboration mechanisms. NGIs fill this void by performing a multidimensional role: Dialogue Facilitator to reduce information asymmetry; Technical Assistant through Participatory Mapping and valid administrative document preparation; Community-Based Agrarian Conflict Mediator; Independent Monitor for accountability; and Policy Advocate. A New Institutional Model based on Hybrid Governance is proposed, formally integrating the state, NGIs, and farming communities, supported by Technological Integration for transparent participatory spatial data. This model must be realized through Institutionalized Partnership (MoU/Presidential Regulation) to ensure legitimacy and sustainability. Key challenges include bureaucratic resistance, NGO stigma, and local elite conflicts of interest, but strengthening the NGI role presents opportunities through enhanced public accountability and technical innovation. In conclusion, the successful acceleration of RA hinges on the formal legal recognition and capacity building of NGIs as official actors within the RA institutional framework.

This study aims to analyze the role of the Langga Sai Village Government in empowering the local product Rombeng Razong as an effort to enhance the village economy and preserve local cultural identity. Rombeng Razong is a traditional woven craft with high economic and cultural value, yet it has not been fully optimized. The research employed a qualitative descriptive approach. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation involving the village government, community leaders, local artisans and youth representatives. The findings reveal that the role of the Langga Sai Village Government as a regulator has been realized through the issuance of Village Regulation No. 4 of 2020 on Local Product Protection. However, its roles as a motivator, facilitator, and catalyst have not been effectively implemented due to limited training, technical assistance, and market access. Low community participation and weak institutional structures also hinder the development of Rombeng Razong as an economic commodity. The study concludes that the success of local product empowerment depends not only on formal regulation but also on the effectiveness of village governance, community participation, and cross-sector collaboration. The village government must therefore strengthen its political role as a driver of inclusive development based on local potential.

The village is a government unit that often receives negative opinions from the public. These opinions include the lack of quality human resources, frequent practices of corruption, collusion and nepotism such as extortion, government officials who are often absent from their places and so on. This study is to determine the extent of the commitment of the Bitung Barat Satu village government in creating Good Government in its area and also to determine the impact of Good Government in providing excellent services in the Bitung Barat Satu village. The sample in this thesis is the Village Head and Village Apparatus totaling 32 (thirty-two) people. Sampling in this study was carried out using a purposive sampling technique. By using data collection analysis techniques including observation, questionnaires, interviews and also stechniques. The Bitung Barat Satu village government has a strong commitment in efforts to achieve Good Government in its area. This is inseparable from the role of the Village Head as a leader who reprimands his subordinates if they do not serve the community well. Apart from that, the village officials and neighborhood heads also strive to provide excellent service to the community in accordance with the principles of Good Government.
