Abstract

82.3% of the population of Sabu Raijua Regency work as farmers with a high level of need for water but the geographical conditions of Sabu Island are not able to support this activity because the majority consists of dry land with a percentage of 97.51% and the number of rainy days is only approximately 100 days per year so that The Sabu Raijua Regency Government has built hundreds of reservoirs to meet agricultural activities, but the weak sustainability of the reservoir construction projects in Sabu Raijua Regency is a problem in itself. The method used in this research is a descriptive method with a qualitative approach with a total number of 76 people who were determined purposively then the primary and secondary data collected were analyzed using data analysis techniques from Creswell (2016). Water governance in the construction of reservoirs for water supply resilience for agriculture in Sabu Raijua Regency, NTT Province uses theory from Van der Kerk, et al (2013: 8) with research results in aspects (1) content layer which is hampered by the uneven flow of information, the absence of training to improve the knowledge and skills of reservoir water users as well as poor strategies/policies, whereas in aspect (2) the institutional layer from the organizational side there was no clear division of roles and responsibilities between institutions, the private sector and the community relating to the use of reservoir water and instruments that were not adequate and in aspect (3) the relational layer on the cooperation side was found not to involve existing policy stakeholders in making decisions about the water management process. The inhibiting factors for water governance in the construction of reservoirs for the resilience of water supply for agriculture in Sabu Raijua Regency, NTT Province consist of a minimal budget, lack of effective institutional governance and climate and geographical conditions.

Abstract

Village customary institutions were formed with the hope of creating an understanding in building villages according to local values, but this goal cannot be realized according to the character of the local community and tends to exist traditional institutions only to fulfill the village government structure formally but do not have a role in the community empowerment planning process. The research is a descriptive research with a qualitative approach with information determined purposively with a total of 23 people, then the researcher will carry out the stages of data collection according to Creswell (2016:254-255) as qualitative observation, qualitative interview, search for qualitative documents) and qualitative audio and visual materials. The data that has been collected is then analyzed using data analysis techniques from Creswell (2016). The results of the study found that the implementation of community empowerment policies by the indigenous institutions of Haumeniana Village based on the policy implementation model from Donald Van Meter and Carl E. Van Horn (1975) found that; (1) policy standards have been flawed so that they tend to be bad policies that have been bad since the beginning, (2) human resources, incentives and infrastructure facilities are insufficient, (3) communication between organizations and strengthening activities are still ineffective, (4) the characteristics of implementing agents are constrained at the vertical level, (5) economic conditions in jurisdictions or implementing organizations are not enough to support policy implementation, (6) The disposition of the implementer is always ready to support the village government as a partner in empowering the community.
