Abstract

The purpose of this research is to know the role of government in the management of green
open space in three city parks, knowing the implementation of Green Open Space governance
in Three City Parks, knowing the benefits of green open space in three City Parks (Nostalgia
Park, Ina Bo'I and Tirosa Park). This research was carried out in Nostalgia Park, Ina Bo'I Park
and Tirosa Park from October to November 2021 with a total of 384 respondents Data
collection techniques used in this study are interviews, questionnaires, documents and archives.
From the data collected, a descriptive qualitative data analysis was carried out. The results of
this study indicate that the management of green open spaces in three city parks by the Kupang
City Environment and Hygiene Service describes four aspects, namely planning, organization,
implementation and supervision. The implementation of Green Open Space governance in the
three city parks has several conceptual elaborations, namely, the location of the city park is
adjusted to the direction of the RTRWK (City Spatial Planning) and still pays attention to the
city parks that already exist today. The activities developed are a combination of ecological
interests, family tourism and limited sports. The types of plants developed are prioritized on
typical/local plants and plants that have aesthetic value and shade plants. In terms of the
benefits of green open space for visitors, 24% of the community can gather with friends and
family, 21% enjoy the scenery and refreshment, 15% reduce stress from work, 14% can get
fresh air and can exercise and 12% enjoy the garden atmosphere.
