Abstract

The governance of information and communication technology (ICT) has become a strategic necessity for higher education institutions to ensure effective academic services and sustainable digital transformation. This study aims to analyze the ICT governance system at the Academic Service Unit for ICT (UPA TIK) of Gorontalo State University. A qualitative case study design was employed. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, document analysis, and direct observation, and analyzed using the Miles and Huberman interactive model. Triangulation was applied to ensure data credibility and validity. The results reveal five governance dimensions: (1) strategic alignment, (2) organizational structure, (3) managerial competence, (4) resource allocation, and (5) institutional culture. While ICT development has been integrated into the university’s strategic plan and supported by adequate infrastructure, weaknesses remain in managerial competence, fragmented decision-making, and limited funding. Institutional culture shows positive digital acceptance but is still constrained by resistance to change. This study concludes that effective ICT governance requires clear organizational structures, competent leadership, and stakeholder participation. The novelty of this research lies in proposing a contextualized governance model for Indonesian higher education, balancing global ICT frameworks with local organizational and cultural dynamics. These findings contribute theoretically to the discourse on digital governance and provide practical recommendations for policymakers in strengthening digital transformation in higher education.

Abstract

This study examines the implementation of the Village Fund Policy (Dana Desa) in Tilongkabila District, Bone Bolango Regency, within Indonesia’s decentralization framework. Although the Village Fund aims to promote participatory and equitable rural development, its implementation has often been constrained by administrative and structural barriers. The research employs a qualitative descriptive design using a case study approach across three villages Permata, Bongopini, and Iloheluma. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, observation, and document analysis involving 10–15 key informants, including village heads, members of the Village Consultative Body (BPD), and community representatives. Data were analyzed using Miles and Huberman’s (1994) interactive model consisting of data reduction, display, and conclusion drawing, and validated through triangulation and member checking. The findings reveal that planning processes are formally participatory but dominated by village elites, implementation tends to prioritize physical projects over empowerment programs, and supervision remains weak due to limited technical capacity and irregular district monitoring. Using Edward III’s implementation model, four key factors were identified: (1) communication, unclear dissemination of central directives; (2) resources, inadequate training and technical expertise; (3) disposition, uneven commitment among implementers; and (4) bureaucratic structure, rigid and overlapping reporting mechanisms. These findings demonstrate that the success of policy implementation depends not only on institutional frameworks but also on behavioral and contextual dimensions. The study contributes theoretically by validating Edward III’s model in a village governance context and practically by recommending strategies for administrative simplification, participatory planning, capacity-building, and community-based supervision. It concludes that effective decentralization requires not only fiscal transfer but also the transformation of local administrative behavior, communication, and institutional learning.

Abstract

This study aims to explore the historical roots and driving factors behind the emergence of Comparative Public Administration (CPA) and its relevance within the context of contemporary global governance. Employing a qualitative-descriptive approach through a comprehensive literature review, the research analyzes the paradigm shifts in public administration from the classical era to the modern governance period. The findings indicate that CPA emerged as a response to the limitations of the Western-centric and universalistic classical administrative theories. Factors such as decolonization, modernization, and globalization served as major catalysts for developing a more contextual and adaptive approach to public administration in developing countries. Scholars such as Fred W. Riggs, Ferrel Heady, and Dwight Waldo played pivotal roles in expanding CPA’s analytical scope from structural perspectives to ecological and network-oriented analyses. The study concludes that CPA is not merely a descriptive tool for comparing bureaucratic systems but also a reflective framework for reinterpreting classical bureaucratic values, rationality, efficiency, and accountability, within the complex dynamics of global governance. Thus, CPA holds strategic importance in bridging classical public administration theories with the adaptive governance demands of the globalization and digitalization era.

Abstract

Indonesian higher education institutions continue to face significant challenges in implementing the Government Agency Performance Accountability System (SAKIP), primarily due to fragmented information systems and manual reporting practices. At Gorontalo State University (UNG), these inefficiencies undermine accountability, delay decision-making, and compromise data accuracy. This qualitative descriptive case study explores how digital integration can address these institutional challenges. The findings revealed that a lack of system interoperability across planning, financial, and performance units leads to data redundancy, inconsistent reporting, and high administrative workloads. A simulation of the e-SAKIP workflow demonstrated a 65% reduction in reporting time and a 40% decrease in data duplication, underscoring its operational impact. In response, this study introduces a prototype of a centralized, cloud-based platform, e-SAKIP, that integrates planning, budgeting, monitoring, and reporting functions into a single digital ecosystem. The novelty of this study lies in developing the first API-based integrated governance model for Indonesian public universities, addressing the critical gap between siloed legacy systems and national SAKIP compliance requirements. Theoretically, the research contributes to digital governance literature by operationalizing Good University Governance (GUG) and New Public Management (NPM) principles through technological integration. Practically, the proposed e-SAKIP model offers a scalable solution for other universities facing similar challenges and provides actionable policy insights to strengthen institutional accountability, data reliability, and digital readiness across Indonesia’s higher education sector.

Abstract

This study examines performance management in higher education by developing an integrative framework that bridges institutional governance, operational systems, and value orientation within the implementation of Indonesia’s Government Agency Performance Accountability System (SAKIP). Focusing on Gorontalo State University, the research addresses a critical gap in performance management studies that often treat institutional, operational, and value dimensions separately without integrating local governance context and organizational culture.  Using a qualitative case study approach, this research employs document analysis, institutional performance reports, regulatory reviews, and in-depth analytical triangulation. The analysis is guided by three analytical dimensions: institutional (commitment, legitimacy, digital leadership), operational (planning, measurement, reporting, and evaluation), and value orientation (effectiveness, efficiency, accountability). The findings reveal that performance improvement at Gorontalo State University was driven by strengthened leadership commitment, digital governance initiatives, and alignment of strategic planning with Key Performance Indicators (IKU). However, institutional legitimacy through internal regulations and integrated performance information systems remains incomplete. At the value level, organizational agility and accountability culture require further consolidation to ensure sustainable governance transformation. The study introduces the "Lekko" model as a novel performance management framework, enhancing performance through legality, electronic governance, concern, and collaboration. The research contributes theoretically by expanding performance management literature in higher education governance and practically by offering a replicable adaptive framework for public universities in developing countries undergoing bureaucratic reform and digital transformation.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the collaboration between higher education institutions and village governments through the Community Service Program (Kuliah Kerja Nyata/KKN) in supporting participatory development planning. The research focuses on the implementation of the KKN program conducted by Universitas Negeri Gorontalo in the coastal area of Tomini Bay. The study employed a qualitative approach with a descriptive research design. The data were obtained from secondary sources, including KKN implementation reports, village development planning documents, regulations, scientific articles, and official publications from the government and universities. Data collection techniques were conducted through documentation studies and literature reviews, while data analysis used qualitative descriptive analysis through data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The results indicate that the KKN program contributes to supporting participatory development planning through problem identification activities, village potential mapping, social observation, and community involvement in the implementation of development programs. The KKN program also demonstrates a collaborative governance pattern involving universities, village governments, and communities in supporting village development based on local needs. In addition to increasing community participation, the KKN program contributes to strengthening the capacity of village officials through administrative assistance, village data management, and facilitation of development deliberations. However, the implementation of the program still faces challenges, including limited implementation time, program sustainability, and the lack of optimal integration between KKN programs and village development planning documents. Therefore, strengthening the synergy between universities and village governments is necessary to ensure that the KKN program can support more participatory, responsive, and sustainable village development.

Abstract

Tourism development is one of the important sectors in supporting regional economic growth and improving community welfare. The development of Perintis Lake tourism is expected to create positive impacts for local communities, especially in economic, social, and environmental aspects. This study aims to examine the impacts of Perintis Lake tourism development on the surrounding community. The research applies a descriptive qualitative method through observation, interviews, and literature studies from journals and books published within the last eight years. The findings indicate that tourism development at Perintis Lake has contributed positively to increasing local income, creating employment opportunities, encouraging the growth of micro and small businesses, and improving village infrastructure. Nevertheless, several negative impacts were also identified, including environmental pollution, traffic congestion during holidays, and shifts in social behavior among local residents. Most community members support the tourism development because it improves economic conditions, although they expect better environmental management and stronger community empowerment from the government. Therefore, tourism development at Perintis Lake significantly contributes to community welfare, but sustainable management is still required to reduce negative effects.
