Infrastructure Governance Study at UPTD Graha Teknologi Sriwijaya South Sumatra Province

Abstract

Science education infrastructure is an important component in the development of community science literacy and improving the quality of human resources. Infrastructure governance is a key factor in ensuring the sustainability of the use of public facilities, especially in non-formal education institutions based on science and technology. This study aims to analyze infrastructure governance at UPTD Graha Teknologi Sriwijaya South Sumatra Province as an experiential science learning center. The research uses a qualitative approach with a case study method. Data collection techniques are carried out through in-depth interviews, observations, and documentation studies. Data analysis is carried out through the process of data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawn. The results of the study show that infrastructure governance at UPTD Graha Teknologi Sriwijaya is influenced by several main aspects, namely facility management policies, institutional capacity, availability of human resources, and budget and technology support. Although infrastructure facilities are available, optimizing their utilization still faces various obstacles such as limited facility maintenance, inter-agency coordination, and limited program innovation.
