Komunikasi Koordinasi Penyuluh dan Pendamping Buruan SAE Kota Bandung

Abstract. This study addresses the issue of coordination communication between agricultural extension officers and program facilitators in the implementation of the "Buruan SAE" Program by the Food Security and Agriculture Office of Bandung City. The program aims to promote household food security through the utilization of home yards. The imbalance of roles that emerged following the formation of the facilitation team has affected the effectiveness of coordination. This research employs a qualitative method with a case study approach. Data were collected through interviews, observation, and documentation. The findings show that internal communication functions fairly well despite challenges such as differences in perception and time constraints. Communication is conducted both formally and informally, vertically and horizontally, including through WhatsApp. Public communication is also effective through social media, face-to-face interactions, and participatory events. The success of the program is supported by leadership, a routine reporting system, and community participation. Buruan SAE is considered exemplary for its sustainability, cross-sectoral collaboration, and recognition at both national and international levels. Abstrak.
