The Empowerment of Village Law 06/2014 Implementation of the Village Law and the Sustainable Livilihood on The Improvement of Village Economy

Poverty is the biggest challenge in every government regime. However, in reality, the Village Law, especially in Bantul Regency, is still a less meaningful development solution due to overlapping policies. Statistically, it hasn't addressed a better number or is still in place. In turn, the large allocation of funds disbursed by the government cannot automatically reduce this poverty rate. Occurring due to local government policies is still pseudo-not in accordance with the target. It was found that the Bappeda of Bantul Regency, in designing development programs using the method of community empowerment, still found government inconsistencies. Where the budget with program achievements does not match what you want to achieve. That is, the 2012 budget is still being used in 2013, and so on. In addition to the government's inconsistency in reducing poverty in Bantul Regency, poverty alleviation programs are still found to be pro-poor, not developing pro-jobs and pro-growth in increasing community participation. This will certainly have an impact on the development of sustainable development in the village as part of sustainable livelihood. At a point, the researchers recommend that the government immediately change its policy direction. With the hope of being one of the role models of sustainable development or the Village Law as a legal element in designing the program, it is one of the spirits in encouraging sustainable living in the village.
