Abstract

Background. Efforts to promote sustainable development in rural Indonesia increasingly rely on Village Fund (Dana Desa) allocations, which are intended to support local infrastructure, environmental management, and community empowerment. Despite substantial fiscal transfers from the national government, concerns persist regarding whether these funds are effectively translated into sustainable development outcomes. Many villages continue to face challenges related to planning quality, administrative capacity, environmental degradation, and accountability mechanisms. Purpose. This study aims to evaluate the perceived effectiveness of Village Fund allocation in supporting sustainable development projects, with a specific focus on environmental initiatives, social welfare programs, and economic empowerment activities. The research also seeks to identify key institutional, administrative, and governance factors that influence program success at the village level. Method. A quantitative survey design was employed, involving 214 village government officials from multiple districts. Respondents were selected using stratified sampling to ensure representation across geographical areas and administrative categories. Data were collected through structured questionnaires measuring fund management practices, project outcomes, and perceived challenges, and were analyzed using descriptive statistics and multiple regression. Results. Findings indicate that Village Fund allocation is moderately effective in promoting sustainable development, particularly in infrastructure and community-based economic projects. Environmental projects show weaker outcomes due to limited technical expertise and inadequate long-term planning. Regression analysis reveals that transparency, participatory planning, and administrative capacity significantly predict program effectiveness. Conclusion. The study concludes that strengthening governance capacity and integrating sustainability criteria into village planning can enhance the long-term impact of Village Fund programs.

Abstract

Background. Electronic waste (e-waste) has become one of the fastest-growing waste streams in Indonesia as rapid digitalization, increased consumer demand for electronic devices, and limited recycling infrastructure create significant environmental and public health challenges. Current disposal patterns—dominated by informal collection, open burning, and landfilling—pose risks related to soil contamination, toxic emissions, and exposure to hazardous substances such as lead, cadmium, and mercury. Purpose. This study aims to review national policies, regulatory frameworks, and best practices related to e-waste management in Indonesia through the conceptual lens of the circular economy. Method. The research employs a qualitative literature review design, synthesizing scholarly articles, government documents, international reports, and case-based analyses of e-waste management initiatives. Comparative analysis is used to identify gaps between policy intentions and implementation outcomes while highlighting successful practices at both national and regional levels. Results. Results show that CE-based initiatives—such as formal recycling facilities, producer take-back programs, and repair–reuse ecosystems—have begun to emerge but face barriers related to limited institutional capacity, low public awareness, and dominance of the informal sector. Conclusion. The study concludes that strengthening national coordination, scaling up CE-driven business models, and integrating community participation are essential for Indonesia to achieve sustainable e-waste management aligned with circular economy principles.

Abstract

Background. Household waste mismanagement remains a persistent environmental and public health challenge in rapidly urbanizing Indonesian cities, including Denpasar, Bali. Despite government-led campaigns promoting household waste sorting, community responses vary widely, suggesting gaps in knowledge, attitude, and practices (KAP) that may influence health outcomes. Purpose. This study investigates the level of community KAP regarding household waste sorting and evaluates its potential impact on public health indicators within urban neighborhoods of Denpasar. The objective is to identify critical behavioral determinants that strengthen or weaken waste-sorting compliance and to assess how these behavioral patterns correlate with sanitation-related health risks. Method. A cross-sectional survey was conducted involving 420 households selected through multistage cluster sampling across four districts in Denpasar. Data were collected using a validated KAP questionnaire, complemented by direct environmental observations and secondary health records from local community health centers. Results. The results indicate that although 78% of respondents show adequate knowledge about waste sorting, only 52% demonstrate positive attitudes, and merely 39% consistently practice proper waste segregation. Poor practice scores strongly correlate with higher reports of mosquito-borne illnesses and household-level sanitation hazards (p < 0.05). Regression analysis suggests that attitude mediates the translation of knowledge into practice, making it a key leverage point for behavioral change. Conclusion. This study concludes that improving public health in Denpasar requires targeted interventions that address not only informational gaps but also motivational and infrastructural barriers to waste-sorting practices. Strengthening community engagement and localized environmental health programs is essential for sustainable behavioral compliance.

Abstract

Background. Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) programs play a vital role in promoting community-based sustainable development, particularly in developing countries like Indonesia. As industries expand, the need for companies to engage in socially responsible practices has become increasingly important to address environmental, social, and economic challenges. Purpose. This study aims to review CSR programs implemented by companies in Indonesia and assess their impact on community-based sustainable development. The research explores various CSR initiatives, focusing on their alignment with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and their contributions to local communities. Method. A comprehensive literature review and case study analysis were employed as the research methodology. Data was collected from academic articles, CSR reports, and case studies of companies that have implemented community-driven CSR programs in Indonesia. The study evaluates the types of CSR activities, the sectors involved, and the outcomes for community development. Results. The findings indicate that CSR programs in Indonesia have led to significant improvements in education, healthcare, and environmental sustainability in local communities. However, challenges such as limited stakeholder engagement, insufficient long-term planning, and a lack of monitoring mechanisms hinder the effectiveness of some initiatives. The study also reveals that successful CSR programs are those that actively involve local communities in decision-making and are aligned with their needs. Conclusion. In conclusion, CSR programs in Indonesia have the potential to contribute to sustainable community development, but they require stronger alignment with local priorities, better long-term strategies, and enhanced monitoring to maximize their impact.

Abstract

Background. Public understanding and awareness of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are essential for ensuring effective national implementation, promoting community participation, and strengthening shared responsibility for sustainable development. Indonesia, as one of the earliest adopters of the SDGs, continues to integrate the goals into national policies, local governance, and development programs. Despite these efforts, limited empirical research has examined the extent of public awareness, perceived relevance, and engagement with the SDGs across the Indonesian population. A national survey is therefore needed to assess public perception and identify gaps in knowledge that may hinder broader societal support for sustainability initiatives. Purpose. This study aims to evaluate the level of public awareness, understanding, and attitudes toward the SDGs in Indonesia by analyzing demographic influences, information sources, and perceived national priorities. The research also seeks to identify barriers to SDG engagement and provide recommendations for enhancing public participation in sustainability initiatives. Method. A nationwide quantitative survey was conducted involving 1,462 respondents selected through stratified random sampling to represent Indonesia’s major demographic groups. Data were collected through structured online and offline questionnaires measuring awareness levels, perceived importance of SDGs, and individual behavioral commitments. Descriptive statistics, cross-tabulations, and regression analysis were used to examine patterns and predictors of SDG awareness. Results. Findings reveal that overall awareness of the SDGs is moderate, with substantial variation across age, education level, and urban–rural residence. Respondents identify climate action, poverty reduction, and quality education as the most relevant SDGs for Indonesia, while awareness of goals related to marine ecosystems and responsible consumption remains low. Regression results indicate that education level, media exposure, and civic engagement significantly predict SDG awareness. Conclusion. The study concludes that strengthening SDG literacy through public campaigns, educational integration, and community-based programs is essential for advancing sustainable development efforts in Indonesia.
