This study highlights the importance of political education as a means to increase awareness and sensitivity of the younger generation to social and political issues. This study uses a qualitative approach with a descriptive type of research, where data is collected through an in-depth understanding of a phenomenon with interviews, online participant observation and analysis of social media upload documents, this study seeks to explore millennial perceptions of politics and the role of social media in shaping their political culture. The results of the study show that millennial attitudes towards politics are greatly influenced by educational factors, personal experience, and trust in the political system. In addition, social media plays a significant role in influencing their views and levels of political participation, both positively and negatively.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the strategic role of the Regional House of Representatives (DPRD) of North Sumatra in improving community welfare through public policies. The DPRD's legislative, budgeting, and supervisory functions contribute to the creation of policies that support social and economic development. This research employs a qualitative approach with a descriptive analysis method, utilizing primary data from interviews with policymakers and secondary data from relevant official documents. The findings reveal that the DPRD actively formulates inclusive public policies, such as budget allocations for education, healthcare, and infrastructure sectors. However, challenges such as limited institutional capacity and political influences may hinder policy effectiveness. Therefore, enhancing the quality of DPRD human resources, ensuring transparency, and increasing public participation in the legislative process are necessary to achieve more targeted policies. This research is expected to serve as a reference to strengthen the DPRD’s role in developing public policies oriented towards community welfare.
