Abstract

Social capital was one of the key factors in the development process, as it emerged from social relationships and, when collectively utilized, could influence the level of well-being. Well-being in this context did not only refer to material needs but also encompassed spiritual and social aspects. This study generally aimed to analyze the relationship between the level of social capital functionality and the well-being of members of the Cibulao Hijau Forest Farmer Group. The study involved 35 group members selected using a simple random sampling technique. A quantitative approach was employed, supported by qualitative data. Data were collected through questionnaire distribution, in-depth interviews, observation, and literature review. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and Spearman’s rank correlation test. The results showed a significant correlation—categorized as moderate—between the functionality of social capital and the well-being level of group members. These findings indicated that the functionality of social capital served as one of the crucial indicators in determining the well-being level of the Cibulao Hijau Forest Farmer Group.
