Abstract

This article analyzes the implementation of stunting management policies in Minahasa Regency. The study uses a descriptive qualitative approach to examine the policy process, the delivery of health services, community empowerment, health-supporting infrastructure, and determinant factors influencing policy performance. Data were obtained through observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation involving local government actors, district and village officials, health workers, community cadres, and community representatives. The analysis follows an interactive qualitative model consisting of data condensation, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings show that stunting management has been implemented through structured planning, primary-health-service mechanisms based on puskesmas and posyandu, food supplementation, maternal and child health monitoring, community education, and village-level support. However, the implementation has not yet achieved full effectiveness because cross-sector integration remains weak, community participation is uneven, infrastructure and data quality are still limited, and program execution often depends on the capacity and commitment of local implementers. Determinant factors include policy communication, human and financial resources, bureaucratic coordination, implementer disposition, and socio-economic conditions. The article argues that stunting policy implementation requires stronger convergence governance, integrated local data, continuous cadre capacity building, culturally grounded health communication, and a family-centered service model that links specific nutrition interventions with sensitive interventions in sanitation, poverty reduction, education, and local economic empowerment.

Abstract

This article analyzes the implementation of a participatory election oversight socialization program and its implications for public participation in election supervision in North Sulawesi. The study is positioned within public administration and policy implementation because participatory oversight is not merely a communication activity; it is an institutional intervention designed to transform citizens from passive voters into active democratic supervisors. A qualitative descriptive-analytical approach was used. Data were generated through interviews with strategic implementers, technical staff, participatory oversight cadres, and community participants, supported by observation and document analysis. The analysis applies Edward III's implementation framework, namely communication, resources, disposition, and bureaucratic structure, and connects these dimensions with supporting and inhibiting factors affecting citizen participation. The findings show that the program has been implemented through vulnerability-based regional mapping, targeted participant selection, face-to-face and online dissemination, case simulation, discussion, pre-test and post-test activities, and follow-up communication through WhatsApp groups and contact persons. Communication, disposition, and bureaucratic structure generally support implementation, but resources remain the weakest dimension because of budget limitations, archipelagic geography, uneven internet access, limited activity duration, and the insufficient readiness of citizens to prepare initial evidence for reports. The program improves electoral knowledge, awareness, consultation behavior, and initial courage to report violations, but public participation has not fully developed into strong, timely, and complete formal reporting. The article proposes an integrated model of sustainable participatory oversight based on risk-based planning, localized case simulation, cadre networks, accessible reporting channels, and continuous feedback. The study contributes to policy implementation literature by showing that citizen participation in electoral supervision requires institutional education, social trust, reporting protection, and resource-sensitive program design.

Abstract

This article analyzes the implementation of village boundary confirmation and determination policy in two adjacent villages that experienced a prolonged administrative boundary dispute. The study is positioned within public administration because village boundaries are not merely cartographic lines; they define legal authority, service coverage, development planning, asset governance, and social harmony. A qualitative descriptive design was used, supported by interviews, observation, and documentation. The analysis applied the policy implementation perspective of George C. Edward III, especially communication, resources, disposition, and bureaucratic structure. The findings show that the implementation process has formally followed the logic of the Minister of Home Affairs Regulation Number 45 of 2016, including document inventory, technical tracing, kartometric analysis, mapping, facilitation, and deliberation. However, the process has not yet produced a final and binding boundary decision. The main obstacles include different interpretations of the same legal basis, fragmented historical and spatial data, limited technical mapping capacity at the village level, inadequate integration of geospatial information, strong community attachment to historical claims, and coordination that has not yet generated a mutually accepted agreement. The article argues that boundary policy implementation requires not only procedural compliance but also an integrated governance mechanism that combines legal validation, geospatial data management, participatory deliberation, and authoritative decision-making. The study contributes to public administration by showing that effective boundary governance depends on the interaction between policy clarity, technical capacity, collaborative communication, and institutional authority.

Abstract

This article analyzes the governance of village boundary segment affirmation between Sea Village and East Koha Village in Minahasa Regency. The study is situated within public administration, public management, territorial administration, and boundary governance. The case is important because village boundaries are not merely cartographic lines; they define administrative authority, public service jurisdiction, planning responsibility, asset management, and community access to government protection. Although formal procedures for village boundary determination and affirmation are provided by the Indonesian regulatory framework, the boundary segment between the two villages has not reached a final agreement. This article uses a qualitative descriptive approach based on in-depth interviews, document analysis, and limited administrative observation. The findings show that the boundary affirmation process has already passed several formal stages, including team formation, data and document collection, facilitation, cartometric tracing, and preparation of maps and coordinates. Nevertheless, the process remains unresolved because socio-historical interpretations, institutional governance limitations, inter-actor coordination, local leadership dynamics, and the low level of social pressure have prevented the transformation of technical outputs into a binding administrative decision. The study concludes that unresolved village boundary affirmation is less a purely technical mapping problem than a governance problem that requires stronger coordination, shared interpretation of evidence, community legitimacy, and decisive administrative follow-up. The article recommends an integrated boundary governance model that combines legal certainty, geospatial evidence, participatory mediation, and final decision-making by authorized local government institutions.
