<![CDATA[Institutional strengthening of village governance is one of the key factors in realizing effective, transparent, and accountable governance at the local level. Since the enactment of Law Number 6 of 2014 concerning Villages, villages have gained broader authority in managing governance, development, and community empowerment. This condition requires adequate institutional capacity to ensure the optimal implementation of village governance. In this context, the Community and Village Empowerment Service of West Nusa Tenggara Province (DPMPD NTB) has a strategic role in providing guidance, facilitation, and institutional strengthening for village governance. This study aims to analyze the role of DPMPD NTB in strengthening village government institutions and to identify various efforts made to improve the capacity of village officials. This research uses a qualitative approach through literature studies and analysis of relevant policy documents. The findings show that DPMPD NTB plays a role through capacity-building programs for village officials, governance management assistance, and strengthening coordination among village institutions. These efforts contribute to improving the effectiveness of village governance and support the realization of sustainable rural development.]]>
