Abstract

This study reported the village fund evaluation of Penukal Abab Lematang Ilir regency (PALI), South Sumatera, Indonesia. The amount of village funds in the Penukal Abab Lematang Ilir regency (PALI) has increased yearly. However, it was also acknowledged that this has not been enough to impact PALI regency significantly. This study used qualitative mixed methods, and the data were collected using interviews, documentation and observations with nine informants from four selected villages, including Babat village, with a developed village typology, Muara Sungai village and Tanah Abang Selatan village, with an underdeveloped village typology, and Karta Dewa village, with a developing village typology. The research showed the village funds were divided into four indicators in the local government’s commitment to developing Indonesia from the periphery by strengthening regions and villages within the framework of a unitary state. However, the village fund policy evaluation in PALI regency, South Sumatera Province, has not been practical in regards to input, process, output, and outcome indicators. In addition, this paper provided insight into the development and village innovation field to evaluate village funds.
