Handling COVID-19 in a collaboration perspective
Keywords:
civil society, collaboration, COVID-19, government, private sector, public policyAbstract
To optimize the role of government in the implementation of public policy, according to the paradigm of new public governance must involve all parties (government, civil society, private sector). Similarly, in the perspective of a network of cooperation between actors and stakeholders in policy implementation, collaboration is a suggested concept, because collaboration concerns inter-organizational relations, inter-governmental relations, strategic alliances and multi-organizational networks (Agranoff, 2004). As a multi-dimensional problem, handling the Covid19 pandemic requires the involvement of various parties to be able to optimize the implementation of policies that have been formulated. This qualitative descriptive research aims to analyze the cooperation of various parties in dealing with COVID-19 in Denpasar City. Data is collected through observations, literature studies and interviews with informants determined by purposive sampling. The results showed that cooperation in the handling of Covid-19 was limited in coordination between government actors, indigenous villages, entrepreneurs (private), universities and mass media. Meanwhile, to optimize the handling of Covid19 requires collaborative cooperation from the actors involved.
