Abstract

Studies on Indonesian local elections have covered identity politics, patronage, and candidate charisma in great detail, but they don't provide much empirical data on how actual policy performance affects public satisfaction and incumbent electability at the province level. There is a research gap regarding whether policy-driven satisfaction quantitatively translates into voter support, especially in decentralized regions where visibility and impact of government programs vary significantly. This is because scholars have rarely integrated public service satisfaction metrics with electoral behavior. By examining whether local government policy effectiveness directly affects satisfaction levels and, in turn, determines incumbent electability in Jambi Province, this study closes that gap. 880 respondents were chosen for this quantitative survey study utilizing a multistage random sampling procedure with a 4% margin of error, and SPSS was used for analysis. The results show that a number of development initiatives, most notably the Dumisake Program, were carried out under the Haris–Sani administration (2020–2024) and received strong public support. While electability data reveals that 51.50% of respondents planned to vote for Haris-Sani in the 2024 Governor Election, the Community Satisfaction Index (IKM) reveals that 60.40% of respondents were satisfied with the administration's plans. The official election result, in which Haris-Sani easily defeated Romi-Sudirman and was subsequently appointed for the 2025–2030 term, clearly represented these opinions. The study finds that increased public satisfaction with local government programs significantly and favorably affects the incumbent's electability, indicating that policy performance continues to be a crucial factor in determining voter behavior in regional elections.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the implementation of collaborative governance and identify key factors influencing its effectiveness in accelerating the stunting reduction program in South Tangerang City. Using a post-positivist approach, this research combines theoretical perspectives on collaborative governance with empirical field observations. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, document analysis, and observation involving government agencies, health institutions, and related stakeholders engaged in stunting prevention initiatives. The findings indicate that South Tangerang City has initiated collaborative efforts across sectors; however, the collaboration has not yet operated optimally due to weak institutional design, unclear coordination mechanisms, and limited facilitative leadership. These shortcomings hinder stakeholder engagement, shared decision-making, and sustained commitment in program implementation. The study concludes that strengthening institutional arrangements, enhancing facilitative leadership, and improving stakeholder integration are essential to optimizing collaborative governance in stunting reduction programs. By addressing these critical factors, local governments can improve policy coherence, program effectiveness, and collective action in tackling stunting. This research contributes to the development of collaborative governance practices and provides a conceptual and practical reference for municipal administrations seeking to accelerate stunting reduction through effective multi-stakeholder collaboration.

Abstract

This study investigates the role of village governance as a key driver for Environmental Conservation Efforts (ECE), with a focus on resource-dependent regions like Bangka Belitung Province. Data from the 2021 Indonesian Village Potential Census (Podes) identified 34 variables related to governance, village assets, and environmental policies. Using bivariate analysis and logistic regression, the research finds that inter-village cooperation, village financial systems, and governance mechanisms are strongly associated with successful ECE outcomes. Specifically, inter-village cooperation was found to increase the likelihood of engaging in conservation activities (AOR: 3.26; 95% CI: 1.47–7.24). However, challenges such as the limited use of open public spaces and insufficient policy integration were also identified. The study underscores the importance of robust governance frameworks in fostering sustainable environmental practices and mitigating such challenges. Despite the limitations of cross-sectional data, this research provides valuable insights for policymakers, emphasizing the need for integrated governance and community-based initiatives to improve conservation efforts. These findings offer a replicable model for environmental conservation strategies in regions under pressure from resource exploitation.

Abstract

This study implements the Penta-Helix collaborative model in an empowerment program for traditional fishing households in Medang Deras Subdistrict, Batubara Regency, North Sumatra Province, through innovative interventions in coastal waste management, transforming waste into calcium-based products. The study aims to address suboptimal coastal waste management and the economic marginalization of fishing communities. The model engages five key actors: the Batubara Regency Government, academics from the University of Sumatera Utara, the private sector represented by PT Indonesia Asahan Aluminium, traditional fishing communities, and media personnel affiliated with the Indonesian Journalists Association. Employing an action research methodology, the study began with surveys, observations, interviews, and focus group discussions with the Penta-Helix actors, followed by empowerment interventions through structured training in coastal waste management. The intervention was implemented via knowledge transfer and training across four stages: (1) collection of coastal waste, (2) processing waste into calcium powder, (3) application of innovative products to meet household needs, and (4) continuous mentoring. The findings indicate that the innovation intervention significantly enhanced local knowledge and skills, increased environmental awareness, and fostered entrepreneurial capacities within traditional fishing households. Moreover, the Penta-Helix actor collaboration successfully established innovation-driven community groups acting as ambassadors to expand the program’s impact. The study recommends institutionalizing the Penta-Helix model within regional development strategies, complemented by fiscal incentives, to strengthen inclusive and sustainable coastal economies.

Abstract

This study examines the potential integration of the Gemohing cultural values of the Lamaholot community into a blue economy management model in Hamlet III Mekko, Pledo Village, Witihama District, East Flores Regency. Gemohing values, which reflect the spirit of mutual cooperation, deliberation, solidarity, and fair benefit sharing, have historically developed in land-based activities but have strategic relevance for marine and coastal resource management. The research method combines a qualitative approach through literature review, in-depth interviews, and Focus Group Discussions (FGDs) with key stakeholders, including local government, village government, traditional leaders, and the Bajo community. The results show that the Bajo community faces socio-economic challenges such as structural poverty, low access to education, limited institutional capacity, and minimal participation in decision-making. Although Mekko has high ecological and marine tourism potential, its utilization has not been optimal due to weak coordination between stakeholders and limited infrastructure. The proposed Gemohing-based management model positions the community as the main actor through participatory mechanisms, proportional benefit sharing, and cross-sector collaboration, thus potentially improving economic welfare while maintaining the sustainability of the marine ecosystem.

Abstract

This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of the Integrated Elderly Family Development Program (BKL) in Pekanbaru and to identify areas needing improvement to enhance the well-being of the elderly optimally. This research employs a qualitative method with data collection techniques, including interviews, observations, and documentation, and utilizes Nvivo 12 Plus for data analysis. The findings indicate that the social innovation within the BKL Program in Pekanbaru includes the integration of health services, social welfare, economic improvement, food security, and social support through PosyanduLansia and PUSAKA; the implementation of a comprehensive approach involving various activities in a single location; and cross-sector synergy to enhance coordination and effectiveness of services. However, key challenges include inadequate cross-sector coordination leading to a lack of synchronization in services, limitations in health services that may result in a deterioration of health among the elderly, and economic non-productivity exacerbating the economic burden on families and the community. Addressing these challenges requires better coordination mechanisms, improvements in access and quality of health services, and the integration of economic empowerment programs to support the independence of the elderly. This research contributes to the understanding how integrated social innovation can be applied to improve the well-being of older adults.

Abstract

This research aims to examine the synergy between public policy and women's empowerment through skills training as a strategy to strengthen the family economy in the ‘Bangga Kencana’ programme in Wonoayu Village, Wajak District, Malang Regency. This research uses a qualitative case study approach, using in-depth interviews, direct observation, and document analysis. Data were analysed using thematic analysis to identify patterns and relationships between policy support and training effectiveness. Coding techniques were applied to categorise key themes relating to skills improvement, economic impact, and program challenges. The results showed that 70% of participants experienced improved skills, and household income increased by 15-25% within six months. However, only 40% received post-training mentoring, limiting the long-term impact. The main challenges faced were limited access to finance (50%), limited market networks (30%), and social norms (20%) that inhibit women's economic participation. While existing public policies aim to support women's empowerment, there are still gaps in implementation, requiring a more integrated approach. This study highlights the importance of integrating policy interventions with local needs by enhancing financial accessibility, expanding market linkages, and ensuring continuous mentoring to sustain empowerment outcomes. The research provides practical policy recommendations to strengthen women’s economic participation, contributing to poverty reduction, gender equality, and sustainable rural development.

Abstract

This study critically evaluates the School Operational Assistance (BOS) policy in enhancing inclusive and quality education in North Bolaang Mongondow Regency. The objective is to assess the policy’s effectiveness in improving educational access, quality, and equity, particularly in bridging gaps between urban and rural schools. Employing a qualitative descriptive method, the research analyzes participation and retention rates in BOS-funded schools, as well as compares access to education before and after the program’s implementation. Findings show that the BOS program significantly contributes to increasing student enrollment, enhancing school performance, and reducing educational disparities. However, challenges persist, including delayed fund disbursements, burdensome administrative processes, and weak monitoring and accountability mechanisms, which hinder optimal utilization of resources at the school level. Despite these limitations, the BOS policy remains a vital tool for promoting educational equity. The study recommends policy refinement through strengthened school management capacity, strategic planning, and evidence-based monitoring and evaluation systems. The proposed roadmap—comprising analysis, corrective action, and continuous learning—is essential for sustainable policy improvement. This research highlights the need for further longitudinal studies with mixed methods to evaluate long-term impacts and support the development of more responsive education policies. Ultimately, improved BOS governance is key to fostering inclusive, equitable, and high-quality education across the region.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the integration of digital policies through e-government and data interoperability in supporting effective poverty alleviation in Tasikmalaya City. The approach used is a qualitative case study design, through in-depth interviews with relevant agencies such as Bappelitbangda, the Social Service, the Health Service, the Education Service, the Communication and Information Service, the Manpower Service, and users of digital services. The results show that data interoperability enables faster, more accurate, and more efficient cross-sectoral information exchange, and supports decile-based poverty classification, which serves as the basis for developing more targeted job training and social assistance programs. However, challenges such as differences in information systems between agencies, limited technological infrastructure, lack of human resource capacity, and cross-institutional coordination remain obstacles to optimizing digital policy implementation. This study also underscores the importance of multi-stakeholder collaboration between the government, the private sector, and educational institutions in improving the quality of human resources and creating innovative public services. These findings align with the e-Government Interoperability Framework (eGIF) and provide theoretical and practical contributions to the development of adaptive and sustainable digital governance at the local level. This research recommends strengthening regulations, increasing digital capacity, and developing an integrated monitoring and evaluation system to support the successful integration of e-government within the context of data-driven social policy.
