Abstract

Introduction: Collaborative Governance is a form of cooperation between the government and third parties or with other governmental institutions that share common concerns. The MASKER PELITA program aims to empower persons with disabilities and increase public awareness of the rights and needs of people with disabilities through a collaborative approach involving village government, community organizations, and private sector actors.

 

Objective: To create an inclusive environment in which persons with disabilities are not merely recipients of assistance, but active participants in social and economic development in Keera Village, Keera Sub district, Wajo Regency.

 

Method: This study employs a qualitative method with a descriptive analytical approach. The researcher conducted in-depth interviews with key informants and carried out direct observations at the research site to obtain data that reflects actual field conditions, supported by relevant documentation.

 

Results: In terms of starting conditions, the study found an imbalance in existing resources. The program has implemented active engagement strategies. Influence and control are well executed through various mechanisms. Efforts to expand the program’s process coverage have been made by involving multiple stakeholders. Regarding institutional design, the program benefits from clearly defined and consistent governance supported by transparent systems, sufficient documentation, routine reporting mechanisms, and clearly defined roles. Lastly, the collaborative process is characterized by face-to-face dialogue that serves to build trust, clarify shared goals, and address challenges. The program began effectively with socialization and discussions involving both government and community, as reflected in increased community participation and stakeholder enthusiasm.

 

Conclusion: The starting conditions show that Collaborative Governance functions as intended, with multi-sectoral engagement. Facilitative leadership is evident as each actor in the MASKER PELITA program carries out their duties in accordance with their respective roles. To further strengthen the institutional design and ensure the success of collaboration between stakeholders and the community, formal cooperation agreements are needed. Lastly, the collaborative process demonstrates that the commitment and mutual understanding among stakeholders contribute to the program's success. Although there are still challenges such as insufficient training for health workers, limitations in the database, budget, and facility access the collaborative efforts in this program indicate a positive achievement.
