Abstract

This study examines how to strengthen institutional capacity for regional development planning in Gorontalo Regency, Indonesia, with a focus on policies that are responsive to local community needs. A qualitative case study design was employed, drawing on in-depth interviews, observations, and analyses of planning documents, including the Regional Medium-Term Development Plan and the Regional Annual Work Plan. The findings indicate that robust institutional capacity, inclusive public participation, and the effective use of information technology are pivotal to producing adaptive and sustainable development policy. However, two principal challenges persist: insufficiently trained human resources for adaptive planning and the suboptimal use of information technology. The analysis links these results to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)—notably SDG 11 (sustainable cities and communities) and SDG 16 (strong, transparent, and accountable institutions). Strengthening institutional capacity and deepening participation are expected to accelerate local SDG progress and to support the design of more inclusive, efficient, and data-driven policy. The study contributes to understanding—and improving—the implementation of adaptive, sustainable regional development policy amid social, economic, and environmental change.

Abstract

This study analyzes the dialectic between political and administrative rationality in the deliberative development planning process in Pentadio Timur Village, Gorontalo Regency. The village planning process is often in tension between political interests (the aspirations of residents and local elites) and administrative rationality (rules, data, and technocratic procedures). Using a qualitative approach and case study method, this study explores the dynamics of the Village Development Planning Meeting (Musrenbangdes) as a deliberation space between political and administrative actors. The results show that political rationality plays a crucial role in maintaining the social legitimacy of village government, while administrative rationality ensures program efficiency, accountability, and sustainability. When both are able to interact collaboratively, the deliberative process produces planning that is inclusive and adaptive to community needs. However, the imbalance between these two rationalities remains a challenge, primarily due to the limited technical capacity of the apparatus and the influence of electoral interests.
