Abstract

This study aims to analyze the application of good governance principles in poverty reduction in Maja District, using a qualitative approach. Through in-depth interviews with government officials and relevant stakeholders, this research explores the five main dimensions of good governance: rule of law, transparency, equality, effectiveness and efficiency, and accountability. The results show that upholding the rule of law is critical to ensuring fairness in the distribution of social assistance. The Maja sub-district government has conducted regular monitoring and evaluation to maintain transparency in the use of funds, as well as involving law enforcement agencies in supervision. Transparency of information to the community is also sought through various communication channels, so that the community can actively participate in the decision-making process. In addition, this study identified challenges such as nepotism and differences in poverty data between agencies that can interfere with program effectiveness. Thus, this study concludes that multi-stakeholder collaboration and a systematic approach to monitoring and evaluation are key to improving the effectiveness of poverty reduction programs in Maja District. This research is expected to provide recommendations for policy development that is more inclusive and responsive to community needs.

Abstract

This study investigates the impact of irrigation systems, pesticide use, and human resource management (HRM) on the productivity growth of oil palm plantations in Indonesia. Utilizing a quantitative approach, data were collected from 120 respondents, representing various plantations, using a Likert scale (1–5). Statistical analysis was conducted using SPSS version 26 to assess the relationships between the independent variables (irrigation systems, pesticide use, and HRM) and the dependent variable (productivity growth). The findings reveal that efficient irrigation practices, responsible pesticide use, and effective HRM significantly contribute to productivity growth. Among these, HRM was found to be the most influential factor. These results highlight the need for plantation managers to prioritize resource management and workforce development to achieve sustainable productivity gains. The study provides valuable insights for enhancing oil palm productivity and promotes the adoption of sustainable practices in Indonesia’s palm oil industry.

Abstract

This study explores the transformation of traditional waqf into productive waqf and its role in enhancing cost efficiency for health infrastructure development in Bogor Regency. Using a qualitative approach, the study draws on data from four key informants and document analysis, with findings analyzed through NVivo software. The research highlights how innovative waqf management strategies, such as leasing waqf land and reinvesting revenues, have contributed to sustainable financing of healthcare projects. Despite its potential, challenges such as regulatory constraints, limited management capacity, and cultural perceptions of waqf hinder its full implementation. The study emphasizes the need for regulatory reforms, capacity-building initiatives, and community engagement to optimize the use of productive waqf in public infrastructure. These findings provide valuable insights for policymakers, waqf institutions, and healthcare planners in leveraging Islamic financial instruments for sustainable development.

Abstract

This article aims at establishing hypothesis-based suggestions in promoting government public policy toward Indonesian using indigenous language. This research was conducted descriptively to describe the phenomena found. The data were also obtained from libraries and related sources. The results of the study indicate that the rapid development of the Bahasa Indonesia does not necessarily eliminate the role of regional languages. This is because regional languages still have a vital function. The existence of regional languages makes it easy for the government to convey their policies, especially for people who still use regional languages. Therefore, it is important to always preserve regional languages.

This is the mission of the organization. In addition to providing services for victims of physical, psychological, and sexual violence, the organization also provides services for victims of trafficking, pornography, bullying, child labor, and children who are in conflict with the law. The use of violence is one of the acts that constitutes a significant violation of human rights. Specifically, this is due to the fact that acts of violence never reflect the standards and values that are associated with human rights.

Depending on the circumstances, this violence may take the form of either physical or psychological aggression. When it comes to acts of physical violence, such as someone hitting or kicking another person, and so on. On the other hand, psychological violence includes things like coercing other people to do things that they do not enjoy. There are impacts that can be harmful to the victim that are associated with both forms. a. physical violence; b. sexual violence; c. economic violence; d. social violence; e. psychological violence; f. domestic neglect; and g. exploitation are all examples of distinct types of violence.
