Abstract

This study aims to develop a local wisdom-based organizational culture model through a Grounded Theory approach by examining the internalization of Galuh cultural values: Silih Asah, Silih Asih, Silih Asuh, and Silih Wangi. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, non-participant observations, and document analysis involving employees, organizational leaders, and students at Universitas Galuh. The analysis followed systematic Grounded Theory procedures, including open coding, axial coding, and selective coding, supported by constant comparative methods and iterative analysis until theoretical saturation was achieved. The findings indicate that the internalization of Galuh values fosters knowledge sharing, strengthens empathetic interpersonal relationships, supports mentoring practices, and enhances professional and ethical behavior. These elements collectively contribute to the formation of a harmonious, adaptive, and sustainable organizational culture. However, the degree of internalization varies across individuals due to differences in perception, background, and organizational commitment, highlighting the dynamic nature of cultural adoption. Furthermore, while these values help reduce interpersonal conflict, they do not eliminate it, but instead provide a constructive framework for conflict management. This study contributes to the literature by proposing a substantive model of organizational culture grounded in local wisdom, offering a strategic framework for integrating cultural values into organizational systems to improve employee behavior, organizational effectiveness, and long-term sustainability.

Abstract

Water scarcity and mismanagement represent critical global challenges exacerbated by climate change and rapid urbanization. In response, Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) have emerged as pivotal technologies optimizing equitable water distribution, real-time monitoring, and sustainable conservation strategies. This study conducts a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) based on the PRISMA guidelines to synthesize the current landscape of computational AI applications targeting water conservation. From an initial identification of 1,449 records gathered from the Scopus database, stringent inclusion criteria filtered specifically for English publications within the Computer Science structural domain spanning the years 2015-2025. This uncompromising filtration yielded exactly 19 empirical, high-impact peer-reviewed articles for qualitative synthesis. A robust thematic analysis reveals three primary domains mapping this niche research architecture: (1) Precision Agriculture and Smart Irrigation Systems leveraging IoT, (2) Predictive Modeling and Real-time Grid Monitoring for urban leakages, and (3) Water Quality and Biodiversity Modeling. Finally, this review highlights critical future research directions, including the demand for explainable AI (XAI) models in hydrology, resolving data privacy and sparse data scenarios using federated learning, and integrating extreme-event climate indices into dynamic resource planning algorithms.

Abstract

This study examines the implementation of the 2019 Regional Development and Empowerment Innovation Program (PIPPK), a territorial development and community empowerment innovation program, in Cijawura Urban Village, Buahbatu District, Bandung City. The program was designed to decentralize neighborhood-scale development, strengthen community institutions, and combine public funding with participatory planning. A qualitative descriptive case-study design was used, drawing on field observations, semi-structured interviews with government and community actors, and policy and administrative documents. Data were interpreted through Edwards III’s policy implementation framework, focusing on communication, resources, disposition, and bureaucratic structure, and analyzed through reduction, display, and conclusion verification. The findings show a pattern of partial effectiveness. Bureaucratic arrangements and formal responsibility were relatively clear, while human-resource capacity, technical understanding, steering-team performance, and cross-level communication remained uneven. Budget realization reached 92.60%, but high absorption did not automatically indicate optimal empowerment outcomes. Misunderstandings about the nature of PIPPK allocations, limited monitoring intensity, and a stronger emphasis on physical activities than local economic empowerment constrained program effectiveness. The study concludes that community-based decentralization requires not only funding and formal structures but also sustained communication, implementation capacity, collaborative monitoring, and clearer technical guidance.

Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic compelled Indonesian villages to reallocate Village Funds from routine development toward emergency social protection, including Village Fund Direct Cash Assistance (Bantuan Langsung Tunai Dana Desa/BLT-Desa). This study examines how BLT-Desa was managed in Cikalong Village, Cikalongwetan District, West Bandung Regency, with particular attention to planning, implementation, administration, reporting, and accountability. A descriptive qualitative case-study design was used. Data were derived from observation, documentary records, and interviews with seven informants comprising the village head, village secretary, village treasurer, and four community beneficiaries. Data were analyzed through reduction, display, and conclusion drawing, with source and technique triangulation. The findings show that the village government adapted quickly by reallocating the 2020 Village Fund and channeling a substantial share to emergency cash transfers. Technically, fund administration and distribution were generally implemented, but governance quality remained uneven. Transparency relied heavily on static information media, community participation in monitoring was limited, and reporting was sometimes delayed by weak staff discipline. The source records also reveal beneficiary-data inconsistencies that underline the importance of integrated social assistance databases. The study concludes that crisis-responsive fiscal flexibility must be accompanied by digital transparency, participatory oversight, reconciled beneficiary data, and stronger administrative accountability to transform short-term relief into durable village resilience.

Abstract

Human resources play a vital role in determining the success of regional governance, particularly in integrating local wisdom and environmental conservation into sustainable urban planning. This study aims to determine and analyze the effect of education and training on employee performance at the Development Planning, Research and Development Agency (BAPPELITBANGDA) of Cimahi City, Indonesia, an agency tasked with formulating policies that impact local cultural and environmental resilience. This research utilized a quantitative method, analyzing data via the Pearson correlation coefficient. The results indicated that the implementation of education and training achieved a score of 71.22%, based on dimensions including material content, methodology, and evaluation. Furthermore, employee performance reached an average score of 70.31%. The study found that education and training have a strong, positive influence on employee performance, contributing 64.80% to the performance variance. These findings emphasize that to effectively address regional challenges such as urban flood mitigation and the preservation of the Cireundeu indigenous village local governments must design continuous capacity-building programs specifically infused with conservation and cultural preservation curricula.

Abstract

Curug Batu Kasur is a small-scale nature tourism destination in Sindangkasih Village, Cikoneng District, Ciamis Regency, West Java, whose appeal rests on a clear mountain stream, a waterfall, rural scenery, and locally embedded social values. This study examines how the site can be developed through environmental conservation and community-based tourism while preserving its ecological and cultural character. A descriptive qualitative design was employed through field observation, open-ended interviews with relevant local informants, and literature review; data were interpreted through thematic comparison and triangulation. The findings indicate five interconnected development assets: relatively well-preserved natural features, a strong place identity linked to local history, community participation in tourism operations, opportunities for local economic diversification, and potential for environmental education. At the same time, limited access infrastructure, weak digital promotion, uneven managerial capacity, waste-management risks, and the absence of more systematic visitor management constrain sustainable growth. The study concludes that Curug Batu Kasur should not be developed through mass-tourism expansion, but through incremental, community-led improvements supported by collaborative governance, digital communication, conservation rules, and capacity building. This approach can strengthen local livelihoods while maintaining the natural and socio-cultural values on which the destination depends.

Abstract

This study proposes a conceptual framework examining the role of indigenous governance systems in shaping inclusive public policy. It responds to a persistent gap between two parallel bodies of literature: studies of indigenous governance, rooted in legal anthropology and postcolonial scholarship, and studies of inclusive public policy, developed within mainstream political science and public administration. The framework identifies three core principles of indigenous governance, namely relational authority, deliberative consensus, and intergenerational collective responsibility, and translates them into policy design elements through a cumulative three-stage progression consisting of recognition, integration, and co-governance. This progression illustrates how indigenous involvement in policymaking can evolve from symbolic acknowledgment toward substantive, shared decision-making authority. The framework carries implications for policy design, institutional structures, bureaucratic capacity, and transition strategies, supported by empirical evidence from diverse governance contexts. As a conceptual contribution, this framework offers both a theoretical lens grounded in indigenous epistemology and a practical map for designing and evaluating inclusive public policy in culturally plural societies.

Abstract

This study examines how traditional leadership in Kuta Traditional Village, Ciamis Regency, Indonesia, functions as a form of strategic thinking to sustain local genius amid the pressures of technological disruption. Employing a qualitative literature-based synthesis of 23 peer-reviewed sources, the study finds that leadership legitimacy in Kuta Village is grounded in spiritual and hereditary authority rather than rational-bureaucratic structures, in which the pupuhu lembur and kuncen are regarded as embodiments of ancestors (karuhun), consistent with the Genetic Theory and the Great Man Theory of leadership. This legitimacy underpins an adaptive leadership pattern comprising two complementary dimensions: doing agile, the coordinated operational response to external change, and being agile, the internalization of ancestral belief values that anchors this response. Together, these dimensions enable the community to selectively embrace education, technology, and tourism without eroding customary order. The study concludes that traditional leadership functions not as a passive custodian of static tradition, but as an active strategic agent negotiating openness to disruption and the preservation of local genius.
