Collaborative Communication Models in Non-cash Food Assistance (Bantuan Pangan Non-Tunai, BPNT) Program: Toward Community Resilience

Abstract

The goal of this study is to analyze the dynamics of the collaborative communication model for the implementation of the Non-Cash Food Assistance (Bantuan Pangan Non-Tunai, BPNT) Program in Takalar Regency, Indonesia, to fight poverty toward community resilience. In order to go more into the subject issue, this study employs a qualitative exploratory methodology. Based on the results of the study, it shows that the implementation of the Non-Cash Food Assistance Program is intended to increase community resilience in the midst of a global crisis in Indonesia. Because outreach to the community is lacking, the implementation of the Non-Cash Food Assistance (Bantuan Pangan Non-Tunai, BPNT) aid program in Takalar Regency, Indonesia, has not been sufficiently successful. This is evident from a number of program targets that were missed. The distribution of the non-cash food Assistance (Bantuan Pangan Non-Tunai, BPNT) aid program must promote collaborative communication with all Takalar Regency stakeholders in order to resolve this issue. This will have an impact on the extent to which distribution policies and management will be implemented in supporting the success of the program.
