Abstract

Christian places of worship have become the most frequently targeted places of worship in Indonesia, with the reported religious discrimination numbers increasing over the past several years, according to reports from the Setara Institute. One of the prominent cases is a prolonged opposition and rejection of the GBI Tlogosari church construction, which lasted from 1998 to 2020. Throughout this period, the involved parties attempted to settle the conflict through various approaches to conflict resolution. This research aims to explore the conflict resolution efforts made particularly by the GBI Tlogosari. Data was collected from diverse sources, including reports from civil society organizations, and analyzed using a qualitative descriptive method. After enduring minoritization and experiencing a situation of de facto rightlessness for more than twenty years, the GBI Tlogosari congregations finally achieved its objective of establishing a church building. Although the initial negotiations with lower-level government officials denied their right to freedom of religion and belief, the subsequent mediations with higher-level government officials proved to be successful. The mediation approach employed by the lower-level officials largely relied on power and authority, whereas the higher-level officials tended to integrate both rights-based and interests-based models.Keywords: minoritization, religious discrimination, freedom of religion and belief, conflict resolution

Abstract

ABSTRACTThis study examined the underlying causes of the separatist movement led by the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), which calls into question the unity of Nigeria and calls for its secession. According to the investigation, the military coup d'état in 1966 and the counter coup that occurred seven months later, which was followed by the genocide against people of Igbo ancestry were the main causes of the unrest. Additionally, it is said to have contributed to alleged marginalisation of the Igbos in the Federal Republic of Nigeria's (FRN) administration. In this study, descriptive analysis was employed. The study used secondary sources of data, especially those from books, journal articles, daily and periodicals, and the internet. The Choice theory, also known as the plebiscitary theory of secession by Allen Buchanan (2004) served as the basis for the study's framework. The investigation suggests that the 1999 Federal Republic of Nigeria (FRN) Constitution, as amended, be reviewed in order to address the grave national concerns brought up by the IPOB's call for secession. Overall, the paper recommended that immediate and necessary steps should be taken by the Executive arm of Government and the National Assembly to restructure the country’s self-styled federal system of administration which may put an end to this form of agitation, not only of the IPOB secessionist scheme, but also of such designs of other aggrieved ethnic nationalities in the country.

Abstract

The waste polemic in Batu City requires waste management at the village level. TPS 3R Temas Sae and TPS 3R Dadaprejo are the result of government policies in recent years. Both of these TPS 3Rs have the potential for development to create ideal governance. The purpose of this study is to compare the current governance systems in the waste reduction process. Through a qualitative approach with descriptive type, this research analyzed and reviewed the comparison results based on the concept of good environmental governance. Furthermore, the results of this study state that TPS 3R Temas Sae and TPS 3R Dadaprejo have their own advantages and disadvantages. Both multi-level interaction aspects are still weak in establishing cooperation with private actors. While the aspect of policy internalization is still the same around the problem of low capacity and capability of the workforce in reading internal needs. And related to sustainable development TPS 3R Temas Sae excels in more innovative processing results, ranging from processing into bar soap, processed mangosteen, organic fermented medicine, maggot cultivation, cat feed, fish feed to organic fertilizer. While TPS 3R Dadaprejo is in the form of maggot and compost. However, TPS 3R Dadaprejo has approved the SI PAPAH application as an information center to retribution

Abstract

This study maps corruption trends in Indonesia during President Joko Widodo’s administration (2014–2024) using a systematic mixed studies review (SMSR) with a Parallel-results Convergent Synthesis Design. By integrating a systematic literature review (SLR) and focus group discussions (FGDs), this research uncovers the entrenched structural, political, and bureaucratic mechanisms that sustain corrupt practices. Corruption in Indonesia is not merely a legal violation but a systemic issue deeply embedded in governance structures, oligarchic influence, and patronage politics. Key drivers include weak democratic institutions, ineffective law enforcement, high political costs, and transactional politics in public office appointments. The study highlights how corruption persisted under Jokowi’s administration through the 2019 revision of the KPK Law, regulatory capture by political elites, and law enforcement intervention in procurement processes. Additionally, media and civil society organizations, which should serve as independent watchdogs, have often been co-opted by political and economic interests, undermining their role in anti-corruption efforts. The findings emphasize that eradicating corruption requires comprehensive institutional reforms, integrity-driven leadership, and fundamental cultural shifts toward transparency and accountability. A multidimensional strategy engaging political institutions, civil society, and oversight agencies is essential to breaking entrenched corruption networks. This study contributes to the broader discourse on governance by offering a framework for future research and policy reforms aimed at strengthening anti-corruption mechanisms in Indonesia.

Abstract

Internet use in Indonesia continues to increase across all age groups, including the elderly. However, limited digital skills make the elderly particularly vulnerable to hoaxes and digital crimes. In Aceh, this issue is especially concerning, as the province was identified among the top three regions with the highest hoax dissemination in 2019. In response, the Indonesian Anti-Slander Society (Mafindo), through its Tular Nalar program, aims to provide digital literacy education to vulnerable groups, including the elderly. This study explores the communication strategy employed by Mafindo Aceh in implementing the Tular Nalar Lansia program in Aceh. Guided by Charles Berger’s Planning Theory and Hafied Cangara’s communication strategy model, the study adopts a qualitative case study approach to offer a contextually relevant analysis. Data were gathered through interviews with the Mafindo Aceh Coordinator, two facilitators, and three elderly participants, along with non-participant observations and document analysis. Findings reveal that although the program was implemented in a structured manner, several weaknesses remain, such as the lack of localized research, inadequate participant selection, and limited evaluation mechanisms. The study underscores the need for communication strategies that are inclusive, culturally sensitive, and tailored to the elderly’s abilities to enhance the impact of digital literacy initiatives.

Abstract

This research examines the implementation of free school meals policies worldwide. Based on the campaign promises of Prabowo Subianto and Gibran Rakabuming Raka, this program is expected to address four main issues: stunting, improving nutrition, enhancing academic achievement, and alleviating extreme poverty. The research adopts a literature review approach, utilising Scopus-indexed sources alongside bibliometric and content analysis to examine global trends, impacts, and challenges associated with such programs. The findings reveal that free school meal programs make a significant contribution to students’ nutritional status, cognitive development, and socioeconomic well-being. However, challenges related to financial sustainability, equitable distribution, and food waste management remain critical obstacles to practical implementation. Lessons from various countries suggest that successful programs require strong political commitment, efficient resource allocation, and multi-sectoral collaboration. In the Indonesian context, implementing a large-scale free school meal initiative demands careful planning and stakeholder engagement to ensure sustainability and effectiveness. This study concludes that while the program holds substantial potential to address pressing social challenges, further research is necessary to evaluate its feasibility, cost-effectiveness, and long-term impact in Indonesia. A comprehensive approach involving policymakers, educators, health experts, and local communities is recommended to support the successful implementation of this initiative, ensuring that it aligns with national development goals and international best practices.

Abstract

This study explores the sustainability of local communities through the lens of the Sustainable Livelihoods Framework (SLF), focusing on the Sangiran Cultural Heritage Site—a protected area with high tourism potential yet persistent poverty. Using a qualitative case study approach with cross-sectional and comparative analysis, the research investigates how local communities utilize livelihood assets and transform their strategies in response to tourism development. Findings reveal that while natural, human, social, and economic capitals form the basis of community livelihoods, efforts to diversify through cultural and nature-based tourism face constraints. Limited financial literacy, restricted access to financing, and weak internalization of training hinder progress. Sustainable livelihoods depend on innovation, capacity building, strong social networks, and inclusive economic policies. The study highlights the need for future longitudinal research to better understand the dynamic relationship between tourism and community livelihoods.
