This study examines the implementation of the Child-Friendly Village (DEKELANA) policy. The DEKELANA policy is one of the efforts to support the Ministry of Women and Child Protection's Program to realize a child-friendly city in the city of Yogyakarta. This is reinforced by Mayoral Regulation Number 71 of 2018 concerning Child-Friendly Villages. DEKELANA aims to increase awareness and concrete efforts from the village, community and business world in the area in an effort to realize village development that guarantees the fulfillment of children's rights, ensures that development takes into account the needs, aspirations, best interests of children and non-discrimination, and unites the potential and relations of human resources, natural resources, sources of funds, facilities and infrastructure, methods and technology in the village government, community participation and the business world in the village in an effort to fulfill children's rights. This study uses a qualitative descriptive method and uses Edward III implementation indicators which include communication, resources, disposition and bureaucratic structure. The results of this study indicate that the implementation of the Child-Friendly Village Policy in the city of Yogyakarta still needs to be optimized. This can be seen from the ongoing inequality in information and understanding related to the DEKELANA program.
