Abstract

Village-owned enterprises (BUMDes) are institutions or organizations that carry out activities or businesses to develop the economy in villages. The main objectives are to increase Village Own Source Revenue (PAdesa), contribute to improving community welfare, alleviate poverty, and reduce unemployment. However, according to Belun Village APBdes data, BUMDes "Karya Mandiri" has not provided PAdes, and administrator and member engagement has been declining annually. Social capital is the capacity of the community to take collective action to achieve common goals through an institution The purpose of this research is to measure the level of social capital in the Belun village community in improving welfare through BUMDes. This research uses Venn diagrams and Social Network Analysis (SNA) to map and measure relationships and information among individuals, groups, or institutions. The results show that the level of community participation in Belun village is at a moderate level, with high-density levels and centrality. There are 17 central figures connected to the BUMDes in Belun village. Independent BUMDes have not yet made financial contributions. Based on the conclusions and recommendations, it is suggested that social capital in independent BUMDes needs to be strengthened, especially in conveying information to the community about the activities carried out, to foster a sense of ownership in the efforts developed by BUMDes and to enhance the capacity of BUMDes management through mentoring from relevant agencies and village governments.
