Abstract

This study examines the utilization of Village Funds allocated by the government since 2015 to alleviate poverty in rural areas. Employing a qualitative approach with a participatory and case study design, the research observes the dynamics of Village Fund use across various villages. The findings reveal that the allocation of Village Funds remains predominantly directed toward physical infrastructure projects rather than socioeconomic empowerment programs. This focus on physical development has led to certain irregularities, including budget inflation for project costs. Additionally, the study identifies several obstacles, such as the limited capacity of village facilitators, which hinder the effective use of Village Funds. To enhance the quality and impact of Village Fund utilization, this study recommends improving facilitation capacity through more comprehensive training, strengthening the role of Community Empowerment Institutions (CEIs) in oversight, and implementing more targeted participatory development strategies. These recommendations aim to maximize the benefits of Village Funds in improving rural community welfare and reducing poverty rates.

Abstract

This study examines the diversification of employment in strengthening the socioeconomic resilience of local communities living around the PT. VDNI nickel smelter in Morosi. Economic dependency predominantly on the mining sector increases community vulnerability to commodity price fluctuations and policy changes affecting the industry. Using a qualitative descriptive approach, data were collected through field observations and in-depth interviews with residents of Morosi District to analyze the impact of employment diversification on their socioeconomic stability. The findings indicate that employment diversification contributes to enhancing economic stability and strengthening community social bonds, helping communities adapt more effectively to economic changes. These results support the theory of socioeconomic resilience, highlighting the importance of supplementary income and robust social connections in navigating economic uncertainties. The study concludes by recommending government and corporate support through training programs and the development of new economic sectors to achieve long-term sustainability.

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to find out the efforts to prevent and overcome sexual violence within the scope of higher education at Halu Oleo University, Kendari. Several cases of sexual violence that have occurred within the scope of the Halu Oleo University campus are the reason for conducting this research. Many studies on sexual violence have been carried out, but efforts to prevent and overcome it within the university have never been carried out. This is the basis for why this study was conducted. The research method is carried out with a qualitative approach to dig up information in depth or in-depth interviews with deliberately determined informants who know and understand very well what the object of the research is. The results of the study show that efforts to prevent and overcome sexual violence within the scope of higher education at Halu Oleo University are by forming a task force for the prevention and handling of sexual violence or the Halu Oleo University PPKS Task Force, Kendari. After the task force was formed, the task force sought to conduct socialization and learning activities to introduce an understanding of the types and forms of sexual violence to students, staff, and education staff. The implication of this study is to provide information and knowledge to the public about sexual violence and how to prevent and deal with it.

Abstract

This research aims to describe the navigation strategies of homeless women farmers in dealing with local socio-economic dynamics in Konda District, South Konawe Regency. This research uses a descriptive qualitative approach to explore the navigation strategies of homeless women farmers in dealing with local socio-economic dynamics in Konda District, South Konawe Regency. This approach was chosen because it allows for an in-depth exploration of the experiences, perspectives and strategies applied by women farmers in dealing with the challenges they face. Data collection techniques were carried out through in-depth interviews, participant observation and documentation, using qualitative descriptive analysis. The results of the research show that the navigation strategies of homeless women farmers in facing local socio-economic dynamics are carried out through: developing social networks, resource management skills, revenue strategy , as well as household economic diversification strategies. In fact, the household economic diversification strategy is an effective adaptive approach for homeless women farmers in facing local socio-economic dynamics. By utilizing local skills, managing risks and creating alternative income, they are able to increase the economic resilience of their families. However, the success of this strategy is highly dependent on inclusive policy support, access to resources, and reduction of structural barriers. Through economic diversification, women farmers not only survive economic challenges but also contribute to social development and community empowerment at the local level.

Abstract

Tujuan dari penelitian ini untuk mendapatkan pemahaman tentang peran perempuan sarjana muda yang bekerja dan mengelola rumah tangga di Kecamatan Driyorejo, Gresik. Perempuan sarjana, sebagai kelompok yang memiliki latar belakang pendidikan tinggi, diharapkan untuk menjalankan tanggung jawab rumah tangga dan berkontribusi secara signifikan di dunia kerja. Meskipun perempuan aktif di dunia kerja, mereka tetap harus menjalankan tugas rumah tangga dalam konteks sosial yang masih kental dengan norma patriarki. Teori feminis liberal digunakan sebagai landasan analisis penelitian ini, dan data dikumpulkan melalui observasi, dokumentasi, dan wawancara mendalam dengan perempuan muda yang melakukan peran ganda. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa perempuan menghadapi tekanan sosial dan psikologis sebagai akibat dari ekspektasi peran ganda yang mereka miliki dari masyarakat dan keluarga. Meskipun mereka memiliki keinginan untuk berkarir dan mandiri, mereka sering merasa terbebani oleh tugas rumah tangga yang masih dianggap sebagai tanggung jawab utama perempuan. Pembagian peran dengan pasangan, dukungan keluarga, dan mengelola waktu adalah beberapa taktik yang digunakan. Namun, sistem sosial atau kebijakan yang cukup tidak mendukung sebagian besar solusi individu. Kesimpulannya, untuk mendorong kesetaraan gender dan keseimbangan peran bagi perempuan muda, dukungan pasangan, perubahan mentalitas masyarakat, dan kebijakan kerja yang inklusif sangat diperlukan.

Abstract

This study aims to describe the relationship between socialization in the peer environment and the formation of gender perception in elementary school students. This study uses a survey method conducted in two elementary schools in Purbalingga, Central Java, which are located in suburban areas. The study population consisted of 80 students, and the sample used was a saturated sample of 100% of the total population. The results showed that the Kendall tau correlation value between the two variables was 0.40 with a significance level of 0.01. This value shows a significant positive relationship between socialization in the peer environment and the respondents' gender perception. Socialization in the peer environment is a significant factor in the formation of gender perception of elementary school students. Positive and open interactions among peers can improve students' understanding of gender, while limited or biased interactions can reinforce less progressive gender stereotypes. The conclusion of this study is that peers play an important role in the formation of gender perceptions of elementary school students, so educators and parents need to pay attention to social dynamics in peer groups as a strategy to foster a more equal and inclusive understanding of gender.

Abstract

Individual behavior in waste management is very important to overcome waste generation. Several studies related to waste management behavior state that individual knowledge and attitudes are related. However, both are not always positively related. The purpose of this study is to analyze the factors causing the disconnection between knowledge and attitudes as the focus of attention so that changes in community behavior that lead to environmentally friendly behavior can be formed. This study was written with a qualitative approach through a descriptive analysis method with literature study techniques. The result, between knowledge and attitude, there is a decision to take waste management actions from individuals based on the results of the meaning (perception) due to symbolic interactionism and individual interests. Not only that, bystander effect symptoms have the potential to be found because the attitude of individuals will be influenced by the social environment/surrounding support. In conclusion, in the context of waste management, if you want to change the behavior of an environmentally friendly community, then in addition to physical support/facilities, perception, interest, and social support are important things to consider.
