Abstract

This study aims to analyze the relationship between regional development and the care of people with mental disorders (ODGJ) in Kaimana Regency within the dynamics of social change. The research used a qualitative approach with a case study design through participant observation, in-depth interviews, and literature review. The results indicate that development in Kaimana remains more focused on physical aspects and economic growth than on strengthening mental health services and social protection for vulnerable groups. The main problems identified include limited mental health services, a weak data collection system for people with mental disorders, a lack of cross-sectoral coordination, and a strong social stigma against people with mental disorders. Furthermore, modernization and changes in community lifestyles have weakened social solidarity within indigenous communities. Nevertheless, the values ​​of mutual cooperation and local community social awareness remain important social capital in supporting community-based care for people with mental disorders. This study emphasizes the need for inclusive and humanistic development through strengthening mental health services, integrating cross-sectoral policies, and involving indigenous communities in a just social protection system.
