This study aims to introduce the concept of social capitalbased on public policy environment into the study of policy implementation modalities. Using recent empirical data, it describes the challenge of institutionalizing a new set of social capital and its relationship within the framework of governance quality to address the question of how social capitalis implemented . To answer this question, the authors used qualitative methods and case studies to discuss crucial aspects of regulating the institutionalization of social capital development and the interaction of social capital within the governance framework that government will adopt. The group of independent home-based workers at the village level was selected based on national policy and program support, which provides a comprehensive empirical foundation for observing it inside the village governance framework.The findings show that social capital can improve policy implementation through 2 things:strengthening social capital through affirmative policy support and programs for special groups/forums. Development of a variety of decision-making innovations, such as women's network leadership meetings, village discussions, women's schools and an important role in formal planning at the village level. Both are correlated to the institutionalization of a new value system, relations between institutions, and the formation of new public values that are more genuine, and reinforce the diversity of previous implementation values. Social capital is the most elementary part for the successful implementation of public policies initiated by the state. The impact is that policy implementation has the ability to reduce the socio-economic costs of development, and functions to synergize the achievement of decent work and self-reliance for groups of women homeworkers.
