Colaborative Governance dalam Revitalisasi Taman Cadika Guna Mewujudkan Ruang Terbuka Publik di Kota Medan

Abstract

This study aims to describe the implementation of Collaborative Governance in the revitalization of Cadika Park to realize public open space in Medan City. The revitalization of Cadika Park is a strategic effort that involves collaboration between the government, the private sector, and the community to enhance the quality of public open space that serves as a venue for social interaction and recreation. According to the data, this revitalization is funded through the Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) of PT Tor Ganda, with a total budget of IDR 22.6 billion. This research refers to three indicators of successful Collaborative Governance according to Emerson, Nabatchi, and Balogh (2012), namely: collaboration dynamics, collaborative actions, and impact and adaptation. The results indicate that the collaboration between the Youth and Sports Office, Bappeda, and PT Tor Ganda has been effective, although challenges remain in terms of oversight and community participation. Community involvement in maintaining and caring for the upgraded facilities is key to the success of this revitalization. The method used in this research is descriptive with a qualitative approach, which describes the situation, conditions, and collaborative processes involving various stakeholders. The findings show that although the revitalization of Cadika Park has had positive impacts, such as an increase in visitor numbers and environmental quality, challenges regarding community awareness and compliance with regulations still need to be addressed to ensure the sustainability of the park as a beneficial public open space.
