Abstract

This study examined the role of learning-oriented educational governance in crisis response through a qualitative case study of the Muhammadiyah Disaster Management Centre (MDMC) during the COVID-19 pandemic in Indonesia. Drawing on community participation theory, collaborative governance, and public sector innovation frameworks, the study explored how participation, collaboration, and innovation functioned as interconnected educational processes. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews, document analysis, and non-participant observation, and analyzed using thematic analysis. The findings indicate that MDMC’s crisis response extended beyond humanitarian action and operated as an educational governance mechanism that strengthened community learning, institutional coordination, and adaptive innovation. Participatory educational engagement enhanced public health literacy and social trust, while collaborative governance facilitated inter-organizational learning across sectors. Innovation emerged as a learning-driven process that institutionalised knowledge into sustainable crisis-response practices. This study proposes an integrative participation model that highlights education as a central mechanism in managing complex societal crises. The findings contribute to educational governance literature by demonstrating the capacity of faith-based organisations to act as learning intermediaries that enhance community resilience and policy legitimacy during emergencies

Abstract

This study aims to develop a strategic model for tourism development through optimizing village fund utilization in Pulau Bagukk, Pulau Banyak Subdistrict, Aceh Singkil Regency, with a focus on financial management perspectives. Despite having significant marine tourism potential, the development of tourism in this area remains suboptimal due to structural and managerial constraints, including limited human resource capacity, weak institutional frameworks, and ineffective allocation of village funds. This research employs a mixed-methods approach, combining qualitative and quantitative data to explore the existing conditions and formulate a comprehensive strategy. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, observations, documentation, and questionnaires. The analytical framework integrates key international theories, including Community-Based Tourism as proposed by Peter E. Murphy, Sustainable Tourism framework by United Nations World Tourism Organization, and Collaborative Governance model developed by Chris Ansell and Alison Gash. Additionally, this study incorporates public financial management principles such as efficiency, effectiveness, and value for money. The findings reveal that village fund utilization is predominantly focused on physical infrastructure, with limited investment in human capital, digital promotion, and institutional strengthening. This condition results in suboptimal economic outcomes and limited community empowerment. Furthermore, the lack of integrated governance and sustainability practices hinders the long-term development of tourism. The study proposes an integrative strategic model that combines Community-Based Tourism, Sustainable Tourism, and Collaborative Governance, supported by optimized village fund allocation as a financial instrument. This model emphasizes capacity building, digital transformation, tourism product development, and institutional strengthening. The novelty of this research lies in integrating tourism development theories with public financial management, positioning village funds as a catalyst for sustainable and inclusive local economic transformation. The findings contribute both theoretically and practically by providing a comprehensive framework for village-based tourism development in coastal and island regions

Abstract

This study examines digital innovation in public fund management for affordable housing financing through a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) approach, aiming to explore its contribution to the realization of smart governance. The review synthesizes relevant studies on digital governance, public financial management, and housing policy to identify patterns, challenges, and research gaps. The findings indicate that digital innovation—such as e-budgeting, integrated financial systems, and data-driven governance—has significantly improved administrative efficiency, transparency, and accountability in public finance. However, its impact on affordable housing financing remains limited due to fragmented institutional coordination, insufficient data integration, and weak organizational capacity. The study reveals that digital transformation often remains at a procedural level and fails to produce substantive governance improvements. Addressing this limitation, the study proposes an integrative framework in which smart governance is achieved through the alignment of three key dimensions: digital infrastructure, institutional capacity, and collaborative governance processes. This framework highlights that technological advancement alone is insufficient without organizational readiness and cross-sector coordination. The findings offer theoretical contributions to Public Administration by integrating digital governance and public financial management within the housing sector. Practically, the study provides policy implications relevant to urban contexts, including DKI Jakarta, in enhancing effective and data-driven housing finance governance.

Abstract

This investigation explores the conceptual framework of organic state architecture as it applies to educational governance, centering on the shift away from rigid, hierarchically imposed bureaucratic arrangements toward more responsive systems energized by grassroots-level initiatives within educational practice. Conventional educational structures have historically been marked by centrally concentrated decision-making authority, uniformly applied policy mandates, and layered governance hierarchies that routinely suppress local creativity and adaptive capacity. In contrast, the organic state paradigm foregrounds systemic flexibility, governance rooted in broad participation, and the genuine empowerment of frontline actors—including classroom teachers, surrounding communities, and educational institutions themselves as the primary engines of meaningful change. Drawing on a qualitative and conceptual analytical framework, this study investigates the extent to which decentralization strategies and community-anchored initiatives can cultivate education reforms that are both contextually grounded and durably sustainable. The evidence suggests that innovation originating from the ground level heightens the real-world relevance of policy, encourages shared problem-solving among stakeholders, and elevates learning outcomes by ensuring that policy directions resonate with actual local circumstances and needs. Beyond this, the organic model nurtures iterative feedback loops connecting policymakers with field practitioners, thereby enabling ongoing systemic adjustment in response to evolving social, technological, and cultural conditions. Nonetheless, the movement toward an organic state architecture is not without its complications, encompassing challenges such as inter-agency coordination difficulties, uneven distribution of local institutional capacity, and the imperative to establish credible accountability frameworks.
