This is partly due to the orientation of past development which tends to be centralized. Since this centralized paradigm has diverted to decentralization, especially during the implementation of the village fund granting policy, it is necessary to examine the actual impact.

Hence the purpose of this study is to measure the impact of providing village funds on the achievement of economic growth and development in Indonesia. The method used is a quantitative approach, with the technique of Difference-in-Difference (DID) analysis.

Thereupon the provision of village funds must remain consistently provided by continuing to seek various forms of improvement in its implementation
