Protecting children, women and marginal groups is one of the national development priorities and in compliance with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) on the pillars of social development. Through Presidential Decree No.57 of 2017 concerning Implementation of SDGs Achievement, each region synergizes SDGs with the Regional Medium-Term Development Plan (RPJMD). In West Nusa Tenggara Province, one of the synergies lies in the goal of gender equality, namely increasing the role of women in regional development and fulfilling children’s rights. Sumbawa District is one of the districts in West Nusa Tenggara that has a synergy of SDGs with RPJMD related to institutional strengthening and fulfillment of children’s rights. This study aimed at identifying child development policies and analyzed constraints in the implementation of child development policies in Sumbawa district. This research used a community development approach, based on justice rights and was a participatory action research involved Regional Departments/service agencies that have duties and functions in fulfilling children’s rights. The result of this action research was that the implementation of the development and fulfillment of children’s rights could not be fully carried out by the government due to insufficient institutional capacity because of weak coordination among Regional Departments (OPDs).
