Abstract

This research describes how the infrastructure development was carried out by “Relawan Kampung” (Village Volunteers), Banten, Indonesia. “Relawan Kampung” is here to overcome the anxiety of unequal development carried out by the government, which hinders people’s mobility. The development they are doing is carried out by paying attention to the sustainability of the surrounding environment and involving the local community as the key development actors. Using the theory of Development Based Community and Case Study Methods, the research results show that the independence of the “Relawan Kampung” from the government, which is reflected in the independence of funds, actually shows the success of a development. Since its establishment in 2012, “Relawan Kampung” has been able to build hundreds of bridges. This is an excellent example of how empowered civil society can meet its own needs without government assistance.
