Abstract

The Indonesian government has not been able to serve 100% of the community's drinking water needs, especially rural communities. Rural communities meet drinking water needs in their areas by managing drinking water supply independently. Population growth, changes in land use, economic development, and environmental pollution have the potential to reduce the quantity and quality of water at its source. These changes require the ability to adapt the water supply community groups through management of endogenous and exogenous dynamism of organizations. This study uses survey techniques to collect data from community drinking water users provided by a community group of villages in the District of Poncokusumo, Malang, Indonesia. The analytical method is SEM-PLS with an analysis program using WarpPLS. Factors of the study are the social profile of the community, the regulatory/policy enforcement, the use of technology, the community empowerment, and the community capacity. Enforcement of regulations/policies is the most important factor influencing community capacity building in providing sustainable drinking. The effective path in the model is the social profile of the community developed through community empowerment. The important thing to include is embedding regulatory/policy enforcement in the community empowerment's agenda.
