Abstract

This study analyzes the role of the Village Government Center in Lampung in enhancing the capacity of village government apparatus and Village Community Institutions. Using a descriptive qualitative approach, the study interprets interview results, institutional documents, and the 2022-2024 problem matrix related to training facilities, budget, facilitators, post-training monitoring, human resources, and digitalization. The article strengthens the original manuscript by integrating role theory, capacity development, human resource development, collaborative governance, adult learning, public service, and innovation perspectives. The findings show that the Center performs four strategic roles: educational, facilitative, consultative, and innovative. These roles contribute to strengthening knowledge, skills, institutional coordination, problem solving, digital adaptation, and community empowerment. However, its effectiveness is constrained by limited infrastructure, insufficient budget, unequal coverage across ten provinces, limited facilitator availability, weak monitoring and evaluation, and low digital competence among village actors. The study concludes that the Center should be developed as an integrated capacity-development hub supported by needs-based training, structured consultation, digital learning, post-training mentoring, and performance-oriented evaluation.
