Abstract

Collaborative governance is an appropriate concept for building community development through community empowerment. Empowerment activities are a good first step in building a strategy to achieve increased community welfare and the abilities of people who experience inadequate living. Segarajaya Village is a coastal village, and the majority of coastal communities have educational, social, and economic limitations. Women’s empowerment increases the skills and strengths that women have so that they can become independent and creative. This study aims to analyze how collaborative governance empowers women in Segarajaya Village through the Seraci batik craftsmen group. The theory used in this research is the collaboration theory from Ansel and Gash, which suggests that there are four indicators that influence the implementation of collaboration: initial conditions, institutional design, facilitative leadership, and collaborative process. This study uses qualitative research methods, with a descriptive approach. The results of this research show that the collaborative process of empowering women in coastal areas through the Seraci batik craftsman group in Segarajaya Village has gone quite well, although the implementation of collaborative governance is still not running optimally. Existing collaboration tends to be less flexible, lacks trust, and is dominated by the private sector, which becomes an obstacle to collaboration, resulting in the implementation of collaborative governance not being optimal.

Abstract

Poverty in coastal communities remains a persistent barrier to sustainable development, particularly for women whose access to education, economic opportunities, finance, and productive resources is limited. This study examines coastal women’s empowerment as a poverty reduction strategy aligned with the Sustainable Development Goals in Segarajaya Village, Bekasi Regency. A qualitative case study design was employed to obtain an in-depth understanding of empowerment practices and cross-sector collaboration. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, observation, documentation, and literature review involving coastal women’s groups, the Segarajaya Village Government, the Bekasi Regency Office of Cooperatives and Small and Medium Enterprises, PT PJB Muara Tawar, and other relevant stakeholders. The findings show that women’s empowerment through the Seraci Batik business group and the Jembatan Cinta ecotourism area has improved skills, expanded employment and entrepreneurship opportunities, increased household income, and strengthened women’s economic independence, while reducing their dependence on unstable fisheries-based household livelihoods. Programme implementation is supported by cross-sector collaboration through skills training, business legality assistance, product promotion, market access, mentoring, and corporate social responsibility funding. However, collaboration remains constrained by unequal stakeholder participation, limited monitoring and evaluation, and institutional inflexibility. These empowerment initiatives directly support SDG 1 on poverty reduction, SDG 5 on gender equality, SDG 8 on decent work and economic growth, and SDG 17 on partnerships. The study concludes that balanced, continuous, and participatory collaboration is essential for strengthening coastal women’s capacity and ensuring sustainable local economic development.
