Abstract
THE DEVELOPMENT OF PARTNERSHIP INSTRUMENT OF “DESA SIAGA” IN SUBANG DISTRICT, WEST JAVA PROVINCE
The successful of “Desa Siaga” as one of the forms of Community Based Health Activities (CBHA)
depends on, among others, the good partnership of different elements in the community, especially
the partnership between health providers with the community. Desa Siaga is a village that has
enough human resources, abilities, and willingness to prevent and solve any health problem,
disasters and emergencies occurred in the village self reliantly. The objective of this study is to
develop the instrument that is able to measure the partnership of Desa Siaga in Indonesia. The study
is conducted in Subang District, since this district has been declared as the only district that has 100
percent Desa Siaga in the whole district. The length of study is nine months, starting from February,
2008. The method of study is a mixed paradigm, which is a combination of qualitative and
quantitative study methods. The methods of study used in the qualitative study are focus group
discussion (FGD), in-depth interview (IDI), and expert meeting. While in the quantitative study is a
cross-sectional method. The result of this study were: Firstly, from the literature review it reveals that
there are three main variables that are important in partnership, namely openness, equality and
mutual benefit. Secondly, from FGD and IDI, these methods are able to elaborate three main variables
as mentioned above into 31 detailed variables. Thirdly, result from the expert meeting is the churnedout of the 31 detailed variables into 52 detailed variables. Fourthly, by using factor analysis of the
opinions prompted from 172 respondents, we are able to subtract these 52 detailed variables into 17
main variables that are the important to determine the degree of partnership of Desa Siaga. These 17
main variables, then, are to be used as the main variables in the development of instrument to
measure the degree of partnership of Desa Siaga. This instrument has been tested in 30 villages in
Subang District. The results are: 17 villages with good partnerships and the remaining 13 with less
satisfactory partnerships. If we cross-tabulate the result from the study, it reveals that villages which
fall into “good” categorization tend to have good partnership in Desa Siaga.
