Optimalisasi Tata Kelola Dana Kampung untuk Meningkatkan Kesejahteraan Masyarakat Lokal
Purpose: To examine the application of good governance principles in village fund management and their impact on community welfare in Kampung Aikai, Papua Tengah.
Methodology/approach: The research employed a descriptive quantitative approach, collecting data through questionnaires, structured interviews, and document analysis. A purposive sampling technique was used to select 52 respondents familiar with village fund planning and implementation.
Results/findings: The findings indicate that the implementation of good governance principles in Aikai Village is relatively strong: transparency (75%), accountability (70%), and participation (80%). The impact on community welfare reached 72%, especially through improved basic infrastructure. However, challenges remain in documentation and comprehensive community involvement during program evaluation stages.
Conclusions: The study concludes that village fund management in Kampung Aikai generally adheres to good governance standards, contributing positively to community welfare. Improvements are needed in accountability mechanisms and inclusive participation across all phases of program management.
Limitations: The study is limited to one village, with a relatively small sample size, which may not fully represent broader patterns in other regions of Papua or Indonesia.
Contribution: The study offers insights for improving village fund governance in remote regions through stronger capacity and participatory systems.

SintaAkuntabilitas, Transparansi, dan Partisipasi Untuk Good Governance di Kecamatan Teluk Bayur
Purpose: This study aims to evaluate the implementation of the principles of accountability, transparency, and participation in the management of the Village Revenue and Expenditure Budget (APBDes) as an effort to realize good governance in Teluk Bayur District, Berau Regency.
Methodology: The research method used is a qualitative approach with data collection techniques including interviews, observations, and documentation.
Results/findings: The results show that the four villages studied—Tumbit Melayu, Labanan Jaya, Labanan Makmur, and Labanan Makarti—have made efforts to implement these principles in accordance with the Regulation of the Minister of Home Affairs Number 20 of 2018, although improvements are still needed in several aspects for optimization.
Conclusions: The implementation of accountability, transparency, and participation has shown progress, yet it remains suboptimal. Strengthening community involvement and enhancing administrative capacity are essential to achieving better governance outcomes.
Limitations: This study is limited to four villages, uses a qualitative approach that is subjective, and only focuses on three principles of good governance. Future research is suggested to cover a wider area, apply a quantitative approach, and explore other principles such as effectiveness and efficiency.
Contribution: The author expresses gratitude to the academic advisor, Ms. Yunita Fitria, to the informants and village officials in Teluk Bayur, and to family and friends for their support during the preparation of this journal.
