Penguatan Tata Kelola HIPAM berbasis Masyarakat untuk Kemandirian Air Bersih di Desa Mayangkawis

Abstract

This community service program addressed: (1) low access to clean water (63% of households), (2) absence of HIPAM (community-based drinking water management) institutions, and (3) poor water quality (25 NTU turbidity and 12 mg/L nitrate) in Mayangkawis village, Balen sub-district, Bojonegoro Regency. The program’s main objective was to establish a village HIPAM structure, complete with AD/ART (articles of association/bylaws) and SOP (standard operating procedure), and to implement a multi-level filtration system, booster pump, and 1.2 km HDPE (high-density polyethylene) pipe network. Additionally, the program aimed to strengthen community capacity through digital technical and administrative training. The specific goals were to raise service coverage to 85% of households and ensure water quality met standards. Methods included village outreach and deliberation, skills training, infrastructure installation (filters, pumps, meters, communal tanks), water quality monitoring, SOP audits, and local cadre regeneration with HIPAM integration. Outcomes comprised a structured village HIPAM serving 255 families and 15 trained cadres, a digital water treatment and administration system, installation of 130 water meters, and 92% user satisfaction with water quality. This model is ready for replication in other villages.
