Abstract

Purpose: This study examines the dependence of rural communities on village funds in Malaka Regency, East Nusa Tenggara, and identifies factors influencing rural economic empowerment. It also investigates the moderating role of community-based development in the relationship between village fund allocation and the development of home industries. Methodology/approach: This study employs a mixed-methods approach by integrating quantitative panel data analysis of 388 village observations from 2019–2022 with qualitative insights derived from field interviews and surveys, in order to comprehensively examine the relationship between village fund allocation, community-based development, and home industry growth. Findings: The findings indicate that village funds have a positive effect on the development of home industries, while community-based development also contributes positively. However, the moderating effect of community-based development on the relationship between village funds and home industry development is negative. Furthermore, qualitative findings reveal that despite the availability of financial support, limited community participation, low entrepreneurial motivation, and weak managerial capacity hinder the effective utilization of village funds for sustainable home industry development. Practical and Theoritical contribution/Originality: This study contributes theoretically and practically by highlighting the importance of optimizing village fund allocation to strengthen community empowerment and support household industry development. Research Limitation: This study highlights the importance of optimizing village fund allocation to strengthen community empowerment and support home industry development, although it is limited to a single region and primarily relies on village budget data.
