EVALUASI PROGRAM INOVATIF DALAM PENGUATAN KAPASITAS MASYARAKAT
Keywords:
Program Evaluation, Community Capacity, Innovative Programs, EmpowermenAbstract
Program evaluation is a critical component for measuring the effectiveness and impact of innovative programs aimed at strengthening community capacity. This study aims to synthesize empirical findings regarding the practices and outcomes of evaluating such programs in Indonesia. The method used is a systematic review of 38 journal articles from research and community service published between 1999 and 2025. Thematic analysis results reveal four main findings. First, the evaluation methodologies employed are still dominated by descriptive qualitative approaches and structured models like CIPP, yet there remains a gap in quantified impact measurement. Second, innovative programs show positive impacts in enhancing economic capacity, social participation, and community institutions, although often not yet optimal and sustainable. Third, the most consistent determining factors for success are synergy among stakeholders and local leadership, while the main constraints lie in budget limitations, institutional capacity, and community participation. Fourth, the capacity and quality of evaluation implementation itself remains a challenge, marked by the limited technical knowledge of evaluators. The implications of these findings emphasize the need for innovation in evaluation systems, including strengthening the capacity of local evaluators, developing more measurable instruments, and shifting towards sustainable participatory evaluation to ensure programs are not only successful in the short term but also leave a legacy of independent capacity for the community.
