| dc.description.abstract | Food security is a crucial foundation for breaking the cycle of poverty,
particularly in rural areas vulnerable to limited food access. The Bangun Purba
Village Government implemented a food security program through the distribution
of livestock and plant seeds as a strategy to increase food availability and
community income. This study aims to describe the program's implementation
process, identify supporting and inhibiting factors, and assess its impact on poverty
alleviation in the village.
The research method used a qualitative descriptive approach, with data
collection techniques including interviews, observation, and documentation.
Informants included the village head, program coordinator, members of the Village
Consultative Body (BPD), and aid recipients. Data and information were analyzed
based on David C. Korten's theory of Program Implementation Success, which
includes indicators for the Program, Implementing Organization, and Target
Group.
The results indicate that the program has contributed to increasing food
availability for some communities, but its effectiveness has not been maximized due
to uneven aid distribution, lack of technical assistance, minimal outreach, and weak
coordination between relevant parties. Recommendations include improving the
quality of field assistance, strengthening cross-agency coordination, and regular
evaluation to ensure targeted and sustainable aid in Bangun Purba Village. | en_US |
