Abstract

This study examines the implementation of Reinventing Government principles in the management of KPHP Unit II South Manokwari and their contribution to sustainable forest governance. Drawing on the ten principles proposed by Osborne and Gaebler (1992), the study explores how public sector reform is translated into local forest management practices and how it influences organizational performance, community participation, and public value creation. A qualitative approach with an instrumental case study design was employed. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, field observations, and document analysis. Informants included the Head of KPHP Unit II South Manokwari, KPHP staff, Social Forestry Groups, Forest Farmer Groups, Social Forestry Business Groups, Community Fire Brigades, and indigenous community leaders. Data were analyzed using the interactive model of Miles, Huberman, and Saldaña (2014), consisting of data collection, data condensation, data display, and conclusion drawing and verification. The findings reveal that the implementation of Reinventing Government has fostered a gradual transformation of forest governance through stronger facilitative functions, increased indigenous community participation, expansion of social forestry programs, community-based service delivery, development of non-timber forest product enterprises, and improved forest protection efforts.
