Abstract

Background: Most areas in West Jakarta have fertile soil, making them suitable for a diverse range of urban vegetation. Urban vegetation communities offer numerous ecological, social, health, economic, and cultural benefits. The preservation of urban vegetation requires reliable data, one of which can be obtained through remote sensing using satellites. This data is crucial for informing the state and pressures on biodiversity in various urban areas. This study aims to analyze the distribution of vegetation on non-agricultural land to improve environmental quality and urban planning in West Jakarta. Methods: A qualitative approach was used, with secondary data and literature studies on several samples, assisted by Google Earth imagery for mapping the vegetation. Findings: The analysis reveals that non-agricultural lands are predominantly covered by alang-alang (Imperata cylindrica) grass, with these lands situated next to government and commercial centers. The findings suggest that there is potential for converting these areas into green open spaces (Ruang Terbuka Hijau/RTH), in accordance with the Regional Spatial Plan (Rencana Tata Ruang Wilayah/RTRW) for DKI Jakarta by 2030. Conclusion: The development of green open spaces from underutilized non-agricultural lands can contribute to improving environmental quality and enhancing the overall urban layout in West Jakarta. Additionally, the spatial structure of West Jakarta follows a sectoral model, where development focuses on specific land uses in distinct sectors. Novelty/Originality of this article: This article offers a novel perspective by integrating satellite-based remote sensing data with urban planning concepts, such as the sectoral model and green open space development.

Abstract

Background: Employee performance is influenced by various factors, including teamwork, communication, and work environment. These elements are critical in shaping the efficiency and productivity of employees within an organization. This study aims to analyze the simultaneous and dominant effects of teamwork, communication, and work environment on employee performance at the Dinas Perpustakaan dan Kearsipan (Library and Archives Office) in Kota Probolinggo. Methods: This research employs a quantitative approach using regression analysis to examine the relationship between independent variables (teamwork, communication, and work environment) and the dependent variable (employee performance). Data was collected from all 48 employees of the Dinas Perpustakaan dan Kearsipan using a saturated sampling technique. The analysis includes F-test to assess simultaneous influence and t-test to determine the partial effect of each variable. Findings: The results of the study show that teamwork, communication, and work environment simultaneously have a significant effect on employee performance, with a calculated F-value of 15.129, which is greater than the F-table value of 3.50. Furthermore, communication was found to have the most dominant influence on employee performance with the highest beta coefficient (5.727) and a significance value of 0.000, indicating a strong and significant effect. Conclusion: The study concludes that all three factors teamwork, communication, and work environment have a positive and significant impact on employee performance. Among these factors, communication plays the most significant role in improving performance. Novelty/Originality of this article: This research contributes to the literature on employee performance by providing insights into the specific influence of teamwork, communication, and work environment in a public sector context, particularly in libraries and archives offices. It also emphasizes the practical application of these findings to enhance organizational effectiveness.

Abstract

Background: This study investigates the leadership response of the Bengkulu Provincial Government to the 2025 fuel shortage crisis, using the theoretical framework of crisis management and adaptive leadership. The crisis revealed structural weaknesses in Indonesia's centralized fuel governance system, as well as the limited anticipatory capacity at the local level. Methods: The research applies a qualitative method with document analysis, drawing on policy documents, media reports, and statistical data. The analysis is guided by Boin et al.'s five tasks of crisis leadership: sense-making, decision-making, meaning-making, terminating, and learning. Findings: Findings indicate that the local government's response was predominantly reactive and characterized by ad hoc decisions, limited coordination, and weak narrative framing. While symbolic actions such as the work-from-home policy helped to mitigate immediate public dissatisfaction, deeper issues such as logistical vulnerabilities at Pulau Baai Port and the absence of contingency reserves remained unaddressed. Furthermore, the lack of transparent communication platforms hindered public trust and accountability. The crisis termination was premature and unaccompanied by institutional learning or structural reforms, reflecting a failure to transition from short-term crisis response to long-term resilience planning. Conclusion: This study concludes that the Bengkulu case highlights the urgent need for decentralized energy governance, investment in predictive infrastructure, and the institutionalization of crisis learning mechanisms. Local governments must be empowered not only to manage operational disruptions but also to initiate reforms that reduce systemic vulnerability and improve crisis preparedness in peripheral regions. Novelty/Originality of this Article: This study uniquely applies the five tasks of crisis leadership to analyze a provincial government’s response to a fuel crisis, revealing critical gaps in decentralized governance and institutional learning often overlooked in Indonesian energy policy research.

Abstract

Background: This study aims to determine and analyze how amicus curiae can enrich the consideration of judges' decisions to impose a criminal case decision and to determine and analyze the contribution of amicus curiae in criminal cases in Indonesian courts by Supreme Court Judges. Methods: The research method uses the Normative Juridical type, with in-depth analysis of several decisions, literature, journals, and doctrines. Findings: The results show that amicus curiae is not explained normatively in Indonesian legislation because it is a legal system adopted from the United States. Judges in handing down a decision can never be separated from the social desires demanded by reality, this makes judges have to carefully consider the decision of a case until an additional opinion from an amicus curiae is needed. It was found that amicus curiae as a "neutral" party was used by judges to be considered in handing down a case orally or in writing. Amicus curiae has participated in the development and decision of jurisprudence in the field of criminal law, where an amicus can state his statement both at the first, appellate and cassation court stages. Conclusion: The conclusion of this research shows that the contribution of amicus curiae can assist judges in carrying out their duties fairly and wisely. The existence of amicus curiae has been proven to be found in many criminal case decisions, both at the first instance, appeal and cassation stages. Although there are no basic rules governing its position in Indonesian legislation. Novelty/Originality of this article: This study provides a novel analysis of how amicus curiae, despite not being explicitly regulated in Indonesian legislation, has been utilized by Supreme Court judges in criminal case decisions.

Abstract

Background: The Ombudsman plays a critical role in overseeing public service delivery and government administration, particularly in addressing maladministration. In 2022, the Ombudsman investigated alleged maladministration in the appointment of acting regional heads, following reports from KontraS, ICW, and Perludem, which highlighted a lack of public participation, transparency, and procedural deviations. This study examines the Ombudsman's role and authority in addressing maladministration based on Law No. 37 of 2008, viewed through the lens of siyāsah dustūriyyah (Islamic constitutional politics). Methods: This research employs a normative juridical approach, utilizing library research to analyze legal regulations, books, and other relevant sources. The study adopts a statutory approach (statute approach) and a conceptual approach (conceptual approach) to explore the Ombudsman's role and authority. Findings: The Ombudsman's actions in addressing maladministration include conducting independent investigations, issuing recommendations, and publishing findings in the Final Examination Report/Laporan Akhir Hasil Pemeriksaan (LAHP). These actions align with its authority under Articles 7 and 8(1) of Law No. 37 of 2008. From the perspective of siyāsah dustūriyyah, the Ombudsman's role parallels that of ḥisbah, an Islamic supervisory institution tasked with upholding justice and preventing wrongdoing. Conclusion: The Ombudsman ensures transparency, accountability, and adherence to legal procedures in government administration. Its authority, as outlined in Law No. 37 of 2008, aligns with the principles of siyāsah dustūriyyah, emphasizing the importance of supervisory institutions in promoting good governance. Novelty/Originality of this article: This study uniquely integrates the legal framework of the Ombudsman with the principles of siyāsah dustūriyyah, offering a comprehensive analysis of the Ombudsman's role in addressing maladministration from both legal and Islamic governance perspectives.

Abstract

Background: People with physical and sensory disabilities remain highly vulnerable to discrimination and exclusion, particularly in the employment sector. Their limited workforce participation is often caused by systemic barriers, lack of accessibility, and insufficient inclusive policy frameworks. This study aims to assess the urgency and regulatory design needed to support remote working and hybrid office systems through the Regulation of the Minister of Manpower and the Regulation of the Minister for Administrative and Bureaucratic Reform. These systems are seen as strategic efforts to enhance inclusive employment for persons with disabilities. Methods: This research applies a normative juridical method, utilizing statutory, conceptual, and comparative legal approaches. Relevant laws and regulations are analyzed alongside comparative studies from Italy, Spain, and England, which have advanced inclusive employment practices. Findings: The study finds that regulatory reforms must be grounded in principles of justice, inclusivity, accessibility, and non-discrimination. By adopting flexible work arrangements through strong legal frameworks, the government can provide more equitable opportunities for individuals with physical and sensory disabilities. The integration of these values into ministerial regulations is crucial for fostering an inclusive working environment and improving labor absorption. Conclusion: Inclusive and well-formulated regulations on remote and hybrid working systems are essential to accelerating equal employment access for persons with physical and sensory disabilities in Indonesia. Novelty/Originality of this article: This study offers an original legal framework proposal that integrates inclusive employment values with flexible work systems, contributing a new perspective to disability-focused regulatory reform in Indonesia.

Abstract

Background: The development of the Gresik Regency Special Economic Zone (SEZ) in East Java has highlighted the need for integrated and collaborative governance in managing social services and supporting micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs). Traditional top-down approaches in public administration have often limited stakeholder participation, while complex socio-economic challenges demand a multi-stakeholder strategy. The Pentahelix approach, which engages government, academia, industry, community, and media, offers a framework to enhance collaborative governance within the context of Indonesian administrative law. Methods: This study employs a systematic literature review of national and international journals, policy documents, and legal literature relevant to collaborative governance, MSME development, social services, and the Pentahelix model. A qualitative-descriptive approach is applied to identify patterns, opportunities, and constraints in implementing Pentahelix-based governance in SEZ contexts. Findings: The literature indicates that the Pentahelix approach facilitates multi-stakeholder coordination, transparency, and accountability in social service delivery and MSME support. In the Gresik Regency SEZ, collaboration among government agencies, local communities, academic institutions, private sectors, and media has shown potential in fostering inclusive economic development. However, challenges persist, including regulatory gaps, limited legal frameworks for stakeholder integration, and disparities in institutional capacities. Conclusion: The Pentahelix approach can strengthen collaborative governance in SEZs, aligning with principles of administrative law by promoting participatory decision-making, efficiency, and accountability. Effective implementation requires legal and institutional reforms to ensure sustainable coordination among diverse stakeholders. Novelty/Originality of this article: This article contributes conceptually by integrating the Pentahelix model with administrative law perspectives, offering a novel framework for understanding collaborative governance in Indonesian SEZs. It provides an interdisciplinary approach that combines legal, social, and economic considerations, which has been rarely explored in the literature on SEZ management and MSME development.

Abstract

Background: Digital transformation in education has become a strategic necessity in the era of Society 5.0, when technology serves not only as an industrial tool but also as a means of improving the quality of human life. This study analyzes the consistency of education policies in Scandinavian countries particularly Finland as a model for Indonesia in realizing sustainable and equitable digital education transformation. Methods: Using qualitative research methods with a literature review approach, this study examines policy documents, scientific literature, international reports, and national regulations to compare the direction of digital education policies in Finland and Indonesia. Findings: The results show that Finland's success is supported by long-term policy stability, research-based curriculum renewal, coordinated decentralization, teacher readiness as key actors, equitable digital infrastructure, and strict data protection. In contrast, Indonesia still faces challenges in the form of overly rapid curriculum changes, inconsistent policy direction, infrastructure gaps, and low digital competence among some educators. Conclusion: This study concludes that Indonesia can achieve an inclusive, adaptive, and sustainable digital education transformation through long-term policy consistency, multi-stakeholder collaboration, and the integration of local values as the foundation for national policy development. Novelty/Originality of this article: This study offers a policy reformulation model in the form of a Grand Design for Digital Education Transformation and the establishment of INDEC as a data-based national evaluation and coordination center.

Abstract

Background: Wetlands in Bangladesh, such as haors and beels, are living, dynamic landscapes that sustain biodiversity, livelihoods, and culture across generations. Yet, governance models rooted in colonial resource extraction and bureaucratic control persist, marginalizing these vital socio-ecological systems. Post-independence state-led development continues to prioritize technical solutions over community knowledge and ecological resilience. This has created a crisis in regions like the haors, where institutional incoherence meets acute ecological vulnerability. Methods: This study employs a qualitative interpretive design grounded in socio-ecological and historical perspectives to examine wetland governance in Bangladesh’s haor region, drawing on extensive secondary sources and using iterative thematic analysis informed by a decolonial framework to explore power dynamics, community experiences, and postcolonial institutional legacies. Findings: Informed by decolonial theory, political ecology, and Indigenous knowledge, this paper argues for a radical paradigm shift. Through fieldwork and community narratives, it highlights the urgent need to move beyond centralized, reactive governance. Instead, it calls for institutional decolonization centering local leadership, plural knowledge systems, and justice in environmental decision-making. Securing the future of Bangladesh’s wetlands demands not just technical innovation, but historical reckoning and epistemic justice, restoring governance to those whose lives are woven into these landscapes. Conclusion: Wetland governance in Bangladesh requires a decolonized, justice-oriented shift that centers community authority, participatory institutions, and the integration of local and scientific knowledge to ensure ecological resilience and social equity. Novelty/Originality of this article: This study applies a decolonial political ecology lens to wetland governance in Bangladesh, proposing a justice-oriented, community-centered model to replace centralized postcolonial control and strengthen socio-ecological resilience.

Abstract

Background:  The framework of Collaborative Governance in Environmental Education (EE) has gained increasing attention in recent years, especially in the context of sustainable development. However, the literature on this topic is still limited, so a deep understanding of how school-community partnerships can improve the effectiveness of EE programs has not been fully explained. This study aims to explore the dynamics of Collaborative Governance between schools and communities by identifying the challenges, strategies, and key outcomes that contribute to sustainable environmental education practices. Method: This study uses a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) by synthesizing empirical and conceptual findings from five relevant journal articles published between 2019 and 2025 through the Scopus database. The results of the analysis show that collaboration between schools, local governments, and civil society organizations plays an important role in fostering a culture of sustainability in the educational environment. The findings also revealed that although collaborative efforts can strengthen trust-building, joint decision-making, and mutual accountability, their implementation is still constrained by limited resources, weak coordination, and suboptimal policy support. Furthermore, this study emphasizes the importance of institutional commitment and continuous professional development for educators to maintain the sustainability of EE programs. Conclusion: The results of this study are consistent with the theory of Collaborative Governance, which emphasizes interdependence and shared responsibility among stakeholders in creating public value. This study concludes that Collaborative Governance functions not only as a coordination mechanism, but also as a transformative process that builds collective trust and empowers schools as agents of sustainable change. Novelty/Originality of this article: This study contributes through a systematic mapping of the intersection between Collaborative Governance and Environmental Education, and offers integrative conceptual insights that support the development of a Collaborative Environmental Education Framework that is aligned with Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) points 4 and 13.
