<![CDATA[Democratic participation constitutes an essential element in the implementation of the rule of law and good governance. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of legal regulations governing public participation in supporting participatory democracy and to explain the urgency of strengthening public participation in achieving democratic, transparent, and accountable governance. This research employs a normative juridical method using statutory, conceptual, and analytical approaches. Primary legal materials consist of Law Number 13 of 2022, Law Number 30 of 2014, and Law Number 14 of 2008, supported by scholarly literature published over the last five years.

Furthermore, strengthening democratic participation has strategic importance in enhancing the legitimacy of public policies, reinforcing oversight of governmental administration, and promoting the realization of the rule of law and good governance oriented toward public interests.]]>
