Abstract

This study examines the effectiveness of Banyumas Regent Regulation Number 25 of 2020 in reducing stunting prevalence in Banyumas Regency, where stunting remains a critical public health and development issue. The research question is: How effective is the regulation in reducing stunting prevalence through targeted nutritional interventions. A mixed-methods approach was employed, combining quantitative survey data from families with toddlers and qualitative interviews with key stakeholders to assess policy implementation and outcomes. The findings show a significant decline in stunting prevalence in 2022 following the regulation’s implementation, although an increase in 2023 indicates sustainability challenges. Unlike national-level policy frameworks that provide broad strategic guidelines and standardized targets across regions, this regional regulation translates national priorities into context-specific interventions tailored to local demographic, socio-economic, and institutional conditions in Banyumas. Compared to other local case studies that often focus on program-level initiatives or pilot projects, this regulation represents a formalized and binding district-level legal instrument that integrates cross-sector coordination, budget allocation, and monitoring mechanisms within the local governance structure. The study concludes that while the regulation demonstrated initial effectiveness, sustained stunting reduction requires stronger program implementation, cross-sector coordination, and continuous policy support to ensure long-term impact at the regional level.

Abstract

This study examines the effect of accelerating village officials’ competencies on the quality of village development planning in Padang Pariaman Regency and identifies challenges in the planning process. Using a mixed-methods approach, quantitative data were collected through questionnaires administered to 79 village officials responsible for planning and analyzed using PLS-SEM, while qualitative data were obtained through in-depth interviews and analyzed thematically. The results indicate that officials’ competencies have a significant simultaneous effect on village development planning (R² = 61.3%); however, partially, only work experience shows a significant positive effect, whereas education and training do not. Qualitative findings reinforce that competencies are primarily developed through practical experience rather than formal education or non-continuous and less relevant training. Key challenges include limited human resource capacity, low training relevance, technical and technological constraints, and weak coordination and community participation. The study recommends continuous mentoring, needs-based training reform, and strengthened stakeholder collaboration to improve the effectiveness and sustainability of village development planning.
