Digitalization of Green Economy Policy Model in Provincial Government

Abstract

Most of the development has only focused on increasing economic productivity without looking at the impacts, namely environmental damage and increasing poverty levels. This study aims to analyze the extent to which public officials understand the Green Economy Policy, identify its design at three levels of the leadership, and to analyze this digitalization model that can increase the levels of awareness. The method used in this research is descriptive and qualitative with an ex-post analysis technique toward green economy policies implemented through green growth education and training curricula. Based on the data obtained, this study found that public officials in the Government of East Kalimantan Province have an awareness of the importance of green policies. However, no differences were observed in the design of the development policy model at each leadership levels. In addition, the internalization of the Green Economy Policies remains partial at a certain level due to limitations in its implementation strategy. Thus, this study recommends the need for a clear focus on the implementation of Green Economy Policy models at each leadership level as well as the internalization of digital-based Green Economy Policies in order to reach wider and faster policy targets.
