Inside Wareng – An Integrated Portal for Information Systems, Administration, and Public Services of Wareng Village, Gunungkidul

Abstract

Village SDGs represent an integrated effort to develop economic, social, environmental, legal, and community governance at the village level. The Faculty of Informatics at Telkom University has partnered with Wareng Village, Gunung Kidul, Yogyakarta, to implement these SDGs through community service initiatives. The community service activities in Wareng Village began with observation, team discussions, system design, system testing, system improvement, and the implementation of SID Wareng. Positive responses from village officials and the community indicated active involvement in the platform development process, with 62.5% agreeing and 37.5% strongly agreeing, despite initial challenges with digital literacy. To ensure the program's sustainability, village officials have been trained in data management and security skills, enabling them to manage the platform independently. Recommendations for further development include adding MSME promotional features and integrating central services. With a robust sustainability plan, SID Wareng is expected to enhance the efficiency of public services and serve as a model for digital villages in the future.
