Population Data and Information Development Strategy Using People Centered Development Principles in Serang Regency, Banten Province

Abstract

In population development, population administration as a system is an inseparable part of government administration and state administration in the context of providing protection for the rights of individual residents, through public services in the form of issuing population documents. Several problems faced are related to the condition of Population Administration in Serang Regency, including regulations that are still incomplete and adequate, Human Resources (HR) are still limited and application implementation is still not optimal due to limited infrastructure readiness. Birth Certificate ownership was also recorded as a lower percentage than eKTP ownership in Serang Regency. The population aged 0-18 years is quite good, namely around 99.24 percent have a birth certificate, but if you count the total population, around 59,000 out of more than 1.6 million or around 4.08 percent of the population in Serang Regency do not have a birth certificate ( Serang Regency Dukcapil Office, 2022). This research uses a qualitative method (Nartin et al., 2024) because researchers want to analyze the information and strategies of the Serang Regency Regional Government in terms of population administration so that an accurate descriptive analysis can be obtained. It is hoped that all development policies related to the development of population data and information will be carried out based on the principle of people centered development, to achieve population-oriented development. Population development policies and programs should ideally involve all sectors and related parties, so good coordination and synergy are needed and planning is integral, comprehensive and holistic.
