Amid the availability of procedural participation space through elections and consultation forums, in reality public participation is often pseudo, people are involved symbolically without adequate understanding, access to information, or critical capacity. One of the main factors at the root of this problem is the lack of an inclusive, structured, and easily accessible public policy and legal education system for young people. In fact, Law Number 40 of 2009 concerning Youth firmly affirms the position of young people as strategic actors in national development, including their role as agents of social control in the process of formulating public policy. Policy and legal education is still concentrated in formal and professional academic environments, while the younger generation outside the lecture hall has minimal access to learn and be involved in the legislative process and public policy. With an exploratory-conceptual approach based on secondary data and scientific literature, this study reflects the urgency of inclusive policy literacy as a foundation for substantive participation. The findings and analysis in this study are expected to contribute to the development of alternative educational designs that bridge politics, public administration, and law, as well as being an initial reference for policy makers and education administrators in strengthening participatory democratic governance in Indonesia.</span></em></p> Rizky Putri Copyright (c) 2025 Jurnal Ilmu Administrasi Negara AsIAN (Asosiasi Ilmuwan Administrasi Negara) http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0 2025-07-18 2025-07-18 13 1 1 15 10.47828/jianaasian.v13i1.292 Tradisi Bakar Batu pada Masyarakat Provinsi Papua Pegunungan Kabupaten Yahukimo dalam Perspektif Kebijakan Publik https://jurnal.asian.or.id/index.php/JIANA/article/view/305 <p style="text-align: justify; background: white;"><em><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 10.0pt; font-family: 'Cambria',serif; color: #111111;">Local traditions are often not an integral part of public policy, including in Yahukimo Regency, Highland Papua. One important tradition still practiced by the Mek Tribe is Bakar Batu, a cultural practice with social, economic, and ecological value. This study aims to analyze the role of the Bakar Batu tradition from a public policy perspective and its potential as a supporting element for sustainable development. The method used was descriptive qualitative with participatory observation, in-depth interviews, and document study. Data were obtained from traditional leaders, the community, and government officials, then analyzed using a successive approximation approach. The findings indicate that Bakar Batu plays a role in cultural preservation, conflict resolution, strengthening social cohesion, natural resource management, and improving the local economy. However, government policy support is still limited, particularly in aspects of funding, integration of cultural values in education, and legal protection of customary land. This tradition also has great potential in supporting environmental conservation and the development of cultural tourism based on the creative economy. Therefore, responsive, inclusive, and collaborative public policies are needed between the government, indigenous communities, and stakeholders so that the Bakar Batu tradition can contribute significantly to sustainable development in Highland Papua.</span></em></p> Orce Kabunggul Copyright (c) 2025 Jurnal Ilmu Administrasi Negara AsIAN (Asosiasi Ilmuwan Administrasi Negara) http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0 2025-07-18 2025-07-18 13 1 16 28 10.47828/jianaasian.v13i1.305 Kolaborasi Pentahelix dalam Penanganan Sampah: Studi Kasus Peran Pemerintah, Akademisi, Bisnis, Komunitas, dan Media di Kota Kupang https://jurnal.asian.or.id/index.php/JIANA/article/view/306 <p><em>This study aims to analyze pentahelix collaboration in waste management in Kupang City, East Nusa Tenggara Province. Waste, particularly household waste, has become a serious problem in almost all major cities in Indonesia, including Kupang. The research employs a qualitative approach using in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and document analysis. The findings reveal significant limitations in human resources, transportation facilities, containers, and budget allocation for waste management. Collaboration among stakeholders remains minimal, with the waste management roadmap yet to be widely socialized. Existing legal instruments are limited to MoUs, cooperation agreements, and temporary decrees. Moreover, public awareness of sorting and disposing of waste properly remains low. The novelty of this study lies in highlighting that waste management cannot be addressed solely by the government but requires pentahelix collaboration involving local government, communities, the private sector, media, and academia. The impact of this research is twofold: it exposes systemic weaknesses in waste governance in peripheral regions while underscoring the importance of cross-actor collaboration. The practical recommendations offered include establishing permanent regulations, strengthening infrastructure, ensuring sustainable budget allocation, and promoting environmental literacy, starting from families to educational institutions. Thus, this study not only identifies problems but also provides concrete policy directions for strengthening sustainable waste governance in Kupang City.</em></p> Yohanes Fry Loli Keluli William Djani I Putu Yoga Bumi Pradana Copyright (c) 2025 Jurnal Ilmu Administrasi Negara AsIAN (Asosiasi Ilmuwan Administrasi Negara) http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0 2025-08-28 2025-08-28 13 1 29 49 10.47828/jianaasian.v13i1.306 Pengaruh Kualitas Pelayanan Posyandu Terhadap Partisipasi Ibu dalam Pencegahan Stunting: Studi di Wilayah Rural Kabupaten Lima Puluh Kota https://jurnal.asian.or.id/index.php/JIANA/article/view/312 <p><em>Stunting has emerged as a critical public health challenge threatening human resource quality in Indonesia, with a national prevalence of 21.5% exceeding the WHO tolerance threshold of 20%. Situjuah Limo Nagari Sub-district faces substantial challenges with 110 reported stunting cases and fluctuating maternal participation rates in posyandu programs ranging from 36-60%, indicating a misalignment between service quality and community engagement. This study aims to analyze the influence of posyandu service quality on maternal participation in stunting prevention programs in Situjuah Limo Nagari Sub-district, Lima Puluh Kota Regency. The research employed a quantitative associative approach utilizing simple random sampling of 87 mothers with stunted children, implementing validated instruments measuring five SERVQUAL service quality dimensions and three participation indicators. The analysis revealed a significant influence of service quality on maternal participation with a coefficient of determination R² = 0.580 (58%) and t-calculated = 10.002 &gt; t-table = 1.988 at significance level p &lt; 0.001. The regression equation Y = 10.871 + 0.354X confirms that each unit increase in service quality enhances participation by 0.354 units. These findings provide empirical justification for investing in posyandu service quality improvement as a cost-effective strategy for optimizing community participation and achieving sustainable stunting reduction targets.</em></p> Fauziah Cahyani Boni Saputra Copyright (c) 2025 Jurnal Ilmu Administrasi Negara AsIAN (Asosiasi Ilmuwan Administrasi Negara) http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0 2025-08-28 2025-08-28 13 1 50 62 10.47828/jianaasian.v13i1.312 Etnik Identitas Etnik Identitas dalam Sengketa Wilayah: Telaah Kritis Konflik Kepemilikan Empat Pulau Aceh-Sumatera Utara dalam Perspektif Kebijakan Administrasi Publik https://jurnal.asian.or.id/index.php/JIANA/article/view/319 <p><em>The territorial dispute between the provinces of Aceh and North Sumatra over four islands in the Aceh Singkil coastal area is not merely an administrative matter, but also reflects tensions rooted in collective political identity. This study aims to analyze the dynamics of the conflict by employing a theoretical framework of political identity, territorial identity, and symbolic-cultural approaches (Anderson, 1991; Donnan &amp; Wilson, 2021). The research adopts a qualitative-descriptive method with a single case study design, using document analysis, digital media sources, and recent academic literature. The findings indicate that the Acehnese community perceives the four islands as integral to their historical memory, cultural heritage, and collective symbolism of the “Tanah Rencong.” In contrast, the central government's technocratic approach, which neglects symbolic and collective memory dimensions, has triggered widespread social resistance. This article underscores the importance of spatial policies that are contextual, deliberative, and sensitive to identity plurality. The study contributes to the development of identity-based public policy analysis and supports conflict resolution strategies that acknowledge the symbolic dimension of territorial governance.</em></p> Kartius Kartius Rahmadani Yusran Copyright (c) 2025 Jurnal Ilmu Administrasi Negara AsIAN (Asosiasi Ilmuwan Administrasi Negara) http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0 2025-08-29 2025-08-29 13 1 63 76 10.47828/jianaasian.v13i1.319
