of programs and village government on index of ecological footprint in the context

village government and ecological footprint has been discussedbut the empirical evidence in

Government is gauged by village representative board and village internal budget.Programs

village/community neighbourhoods census (Podes) 2011 consisting 77,961
villages/community neighborhoods and Indonesian-Environmental Care Behavior Survey
2013 consisting 276,789 household. Logistic model is conducted to drive the ways in which
the distribution of village government, programs of community empowerment and

programs of community empowerment to ecological footprint index. All instruments are
highly connected with ecological footprint index.
