Abstract

This study examines the impact of community participation, multi-stakeholder collaboration, transparency, and accountability on village financial governance policies in Rokan Hulu Regency, Riau Province, within the framework of the New Public Governance (NPG) paradigm. This research used a mixed methods approach with a sequential exploratory design. Qualitative data were collected through semi-structured interviews, direct observation and document analysis, then analyzed using thematic techniques. Quantitative data was obtained through a Likert scale questionnaire survey involving 90 purposively selected respondents and analyzed descriptively and inferentially. The research findings show that community participation, multi-stakeholder collaboration, transparency, and accountability significantly improve the effectiveness, efficiency, and accountability of village financial governance. However, challenges such as low participation of vulnerable groups, weak synergy between informal actors, and unequal access to information are still major obstacles. The study concludes that strengthening formal collaboration, improving technical capacity through internal audit training, and adopting inclusive strategies to increase community participation are critical to advancing village financial governance. This study contributes to the theoretical development of the NPG paradigm and provides practical recommendations for designing policies for inclusive and sustainable village financial governance.

Abstract

This research paper examines how digital governance evolves and intersects with collaborative governance to reshape the principles and practices of public administration. The research explores how digital platforms facilitate stakeholder collaboration, co-production of public services and evidence-based decision-making. The study also discusses the challenges that public institutions face in adapting to this new paradigm, including issues of digital divide, institutional resistance and governance capacity. These findings underscore the importance of aligning technological innovation with inclusive governance practices to achieve more effective, accountable and citizen-centred governance. The implications of this research suggest that future public sector reforms should prioritise digital inclusion, invest in collaborative capacity building, and strengthen governance networks to respond more adaptively to complex societal needs. Ultimately, this research suggests that the fusion of digital and collaborative governance offers significant potential to address complex policy challenges and enhance democratic legitimacy in contemporary public administration.

Abstract

Climate change is a critical issue that is constantly discussed in numerous international forums, particularly considering its wide-impact and cross-sectoral nature. Every aspect of real life, especially the environment, is impacted by this global phenomenon, hence the need for real solutions from various groups. Public administration scientists saw this as a problem that must be solved through several literature studies conducted. This research method will use a systematic mapping study using the Taylor and Francis Group database that has been determined. The results of this study with 3 actors combined with collaborative governance show that government actors focus on domestic and foreign policies adopted by emphasizing the collaboration between government agencies that can be done. Meanwhile, the private sector has a unique contribution where they implement a circular economy and mutual cooperation determined by the principle of humanism and remain humane by helping the community. Meanwhile, community actors emphasize the existence of local knowledge and community capacity as knowledge resources in climate change adaptation. This research shows the interplay among actors in climate change mitigation and encourages future researchers to provide a connection to decision-making. Current trends suggest that the public and private aspects of climate change mitigation currently lack synergy, with each of the key governance actors working separately to mitigate climate change.

Abstract

Free school meals policy have been implemented globally as a mechanism to promote academic and nutritional equity. This study critically examines the management and challenges of free meal programs in four major countries: India, the USA, Japan, and South Korea. Through a comparative analysis, this article evaluates the governance structures of the programs. The study identifies a range of challenges faced by each country, including logistical complexities, socio-cultural barriers, and economic constraints. Despite their differences, the findings emphasize the importance of strong governance networks, sustained collaboration among key stakeholders—such as government agencies, educational institutions, and local communities—and context-specific policy adaptations. These elements are essential for overcoming challenges and ensuring the effectiveness and sustainability of free school meal policy initiatives. While addressing the primary objectives of health and education, these programs can contribute to broader social benefits.

Abstract

Tanjung Lesung, as a tourism Special Economic Zone (SEZ), faces significant challenges in restoring its tourism image after the disaster. Therefore, understanding public perceptions of mitigation efforts and traveller safety is critical in determining the effectiveness of destination recovery strategies. This study aims to analyse the influence of disaster mitigation, tourism security, satisfaction with sustainable tourism policies, and post-disaster psychological conditions on public perceptions of Tanjung Lesung after the tsunami. This study uses a quantitative approach with a survey method. Data was collected from 97 valid respondents and analysed using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modelling (PLS-SEM) with Smart PLS4 software. The results show that disaster mitigation and tourism security have a significant influence on community perceptions of tourist destinations. In addition, satisfaction with sustainable tourism policies acts as a mediator in the relationship between disaster mitigation and community perceptions. Other findings revealed that post-disaster psychological conditions have a significant impact on community satisfaction with tourism policies and their perceptions of tourist destination security. Based on the results of this study, an integrated approach that includes comprehensive disaster mitigation policies, improved tourism security, and attention to the psychological state of the community is needed to rebuild community trust in post-disaster tourist destinations. This study provides important insights for policy makers and destination managers in designing more effective recovery strategies to ensure the sustainability of the tourism sector in disaster-affected areas.

Abstract

This study examines the effect of media literacy on students' social protection in adult and vocational education policy in Rivers State, Nigeria, based on experiences from the COVID-19 pandemic. The following three research questions and corresponding null hypotheses were formulated. A quasi-experimental design with an experimental group and a control group was used. A sample of 180 learners was randomly selected from a total of 2,378 adult learners in six adult literacy centers. The data collection instrument used in this study was the Learners Social Protection Test (LeSPT), which was developed by the researchers and tested for face and content validity by three experts. A reliability coefficient of 0.87 was obtained through the application of the Kuder-Richardson formula (K-R20). The data collected were analyzed using mean, standard deviation, and analysis of covariance. Findings indicated that students who received media literacy instruction showed significantly greater positive effects on social protection compared to students who only received basic literacy instruction.

Abstract

The Government of India has launched several mobile applications such as UMANG, mAadhaar, Digilocker, and CPGRAMS to facilitate citizen engagement and improve public service delivery. These platforms serve as a testament to the ongoing digital transformation in governance, aimed at making services more accessible, transparent, and efficient. The study evaluates the impact of digital applications like Unified Mobile Application for New-age Governance (UMANG), mAadhaar, Digilocker and Centralised Public Grievance Redress and Monitoring System (CPGRAMS) on citizen engagement and governance effectiveness. A mixed-methods approach was adopted, integrating qualitative and quantitative insights from 400 respondents across varied demographics were surveyed and 20 qualitative in-depth interviews conducted on experts across India. Findings highlight significant disparities in accessibility and usability of these tools, calling for integrated policy interventions and advanced technology adoption. The paper also discusses challenges such as digital divide and proposes actionable recommendations to optimize citizen-centric services.

Abstract

The aim of this article is to explore the trend of declining votes for Islamic parties in contemporary Indonesia, both at the national and local levels. In particular, it examines the failure of the Partai Persatuan Pembangunan (PPP) in the 2024 elections. Some perspectives argue that the defeat of Islamic parties in Indonesia stems from their inability to adapt their ideological platforms, internal factionalism, and identity crises. Other views suggest that shifts in the ideological orientation of Islamic voters, who increasingly favor nationalist parties over Islamic parties, have also contributed to their electoral decline. This study employs a qualitative method with a sociological institutionalism approach, arguing that empirical sociological conditions played a decisive role in shaping the defeat of Islamic parties in the 2024 election. At least seven factors contributed to the failure of long-established Islamic parties to secure the support of Muslim voters. Chief among these was prolonged internal conflict, while additional factors included leadership crises, weak coordination and communication between central and regional legislative candidates, the loss of charismatic figures, misaligned endorsements of presidential and vice-presidential candidates, campaign strategies that failed to appeal to young voters, and inadequate financial and logistical resources.
