Abstract: This study aims to determine the level of community participation in the preparation of the Village Government Work Plan (RKPDes) in Krangkong Village, Kepohbaru District, Bojonegoro Regency. This study uses a qualitative approach with data collection techniques through in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and documentation studies. This research involved the local community, village officials, and related parties in the process of preparing the RKPDes. The research focus uses eight steps of community participation according to Sherry Arnstein, namely: 1) Manipulation; 2) Therapy; 3) Provision of Information; 4) Consultation; 5) Appeasement; 6) Partnership; 7) Delegated power of attorney; and 8) Community Control. Data analysis was performed using the Miles and Huberman Data Analysis interactive model, which involved grouping and interpreting the data obtained. The results of this study indicate that community participation in the preparation of the RKPDes in Krangkong Village is still limited. Even though there are efforts from the village government to involve the community in the decision-making process, the level of participation is still low. This research recommends several steps to increase community participation in preparing the RKPDes in Krangkong Village. It is hoped that this research can provide a better understanding of increasing community participation in the preparation of the RKPDes in Krangkong Village.
