About the Journal

The Journal of Public Policy, Governance and Local Government (JPPG) is a scientific journal that publishes the latest research results in the fields of public administration, public policy, and local government. This journal serves as an academic space to examine the dynamics of governance, the formulation and implementation of public policies, and the strengthening of governmental institutional capacities at both national and local levels.

The main focus of JPPG is on empirical and conceptual research that offers critical analysis, policy innovations, and best practices in governance. The articles published are expected to provide theoretical contributions to the development of public administration science as well as practical recommendations relevant to policymakers, bureaucrats, and other stakeholders.

This journal also encourages interdisciplinary studies that place the local context as the basis for analysis, particularly in issues of decentralization, regional autonomy, good governance, public service, public sector innovation, and community participation in the policy process. Thus, JPPG aims to bridge the gap between theory and practice of governance at various levels.

Through a stringent and academically standard peer-review process, JPPG is committed to being a credible scientific reference for academics, researchers, practitioners, and students. This journal is expected to contribute to enriching scientific discourse and to promote the realization of effective, transparent, and public-interest-oriented governance.
