| dc.description.abstract | The Urban Village Empowerment Program is a crucial part of the development process, specifically tailored to the regional characteristics and urgent needs. The success of this program hinges upon collaboration between the village government and the community, both as participants and target beneficiaries, as well as fostering communication among agencies within the local government. Hence, there is a need for a study on how communication, resources, disposition, and bureaucratic structure influence the success of implementing the urban village empowerment program.
The methodology employed in this research is descriptive research with a qualitative approach. The informants in this study are officials from Petisah Tengah Village, ranging from the village head, village secretary, to the head of the empowerment section. Data collection techniques include interviews, observations, documentation, and literature review. The data obtained are then analyzed qualitatively using Edward III's theory, which suggests that implementation failure can be observed through communication, resources, disposition, and bureaucratic structure.
The research findings indicate that the implementation of the urban village empowerment program in Petisah Tengah Village is not optimal due to poor implementer performance. This is evident in the realization of program objectives, which still do not accurately meet the needs of the village community. Additionally, this is due to the lack of community participation and awareness. Furthermore, the communication between program managers and the community is not effectively conducted. Consequently, the interplay of these elements results in the misalignment of program objectives, poor program management performance, and the failure to achieve program goals to their fullest extent. | en_US |
